This Amendment No. 1 to statement on Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 1”) is being filed jointly by WH/LVH Managers Voteco LLC (“Voteco”), Stuart M. Rothenberg (“Mr. Rothenberg”), Brahm Cramer (“Mr. Cramer”) and Jonathan Langer (“Mr. Langer” and together with Voteco, Mr. Rothenberg and Mr. Cramer, the “Reporting Persons”), and amends the original statement on Schedule 13D by the Reporting Persons filed on July 31, 2006 (the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 1 relates to the class A voting membership units (“Class A Units”) of Colony Resorts LVH Acquisitions, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Company”).

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

 

The second sentence of Item 2(a) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Messrs. Cramer and Langer are managing members of Voteco, Mr. Rothenberg is a non-managing member of Voteco, and Messrs. Cramer, Langer and Rothenberg collectively hold all of the membership interests in Voteco.”

Item 2(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“(c) The principal business of Voteco is its investment in the Class A Units. Mr. Cramer’s principal occupation is co-head of the Real Estate Principal Investment Area (“REPIA”) of Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”) and he is also a member of the Investment Committee of Whitehall Street Global Real Estate Limited Partnership 2001 (the “Street Fund”), Whitehall Parallel Global Real Estate Limited Partnership 2001 (the “Parallel Fund”) and Whitehall Street Global Real Estate Employee Fund 2001, L.P.

Mr. Langer’s principal occupation is head of U.S. acquisitions and global head of hospitality and gaming investing for REPIA of Goldman Sachs. Effective December 31, 2008, Mr. Rothenberg resigned his position as head of REPIA of Goldman Sachs and Chairman of the Investment Committee of the Whitehall Funds and, effective as of March 9, 2009, Mr. Rothenberg’s principal occupation is independent financial consultant. Goldman Sachs, a New York limited partnership, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (“GS Group”) and a member of the New York Stock Exchange and other national exchanges. GS Group is a Delaware corporation and a bank holding company that (directly or indirectly through subsidiaries or affiliated companies or both) is a leading global investment banking, securities and investment management firm. The principal address of each Reporting Person is 85 Broad Street, New York, New York 10004.”

Item 5.

The first sentence of Item 5(b) of the Schedule 13D is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“Effective as of March 9, 2009, Stuart M. Rothenberg no longer has the power or authority to act on behalf of Voteco. Except for Mr. Rothenberg, each of the Reporting Persons has shared power to vote or direct the vote and, subject to the Transfer Restriction Agreement described below, shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of 0.6 Class A Units. Mr. Rothenberg retains his membership in Voteco and, subject to the Transfer Restriction Agreement described below, retains his power to dispose of his membership interests in Voteco.”
