ITEM 1.01.
Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 27, 2018, Las Vegas Sands, LLC (“LVS” or the “Borrower”), a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Las Vegas Sands Corp. (“LVSC”), and certain of the Borrower’s other domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) entered into a Fifth Amendment (the “Amendment Agreement”) to the Existing Credit Agreement (as defined below) with certain of the Lenders party thereto and The Bank of Nova Scotia (“Scotiabank”), as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. The Amendment Agreement amends the Second Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated as of December 19, 2013 (as amended previously, the “Existing Credit Agreement” and, as amended by the Amendment Agreement, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), among LVS, as Borrower, the Guarantors, various Lenders, Scotiabank, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, and the other parties thereto. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein are defined in the Amended Credit Agreement.

Pursuant to the Amendment Agreement, term loan lenders will provide refinancing term loans (by way of continuing or replacing existing term loans) in an aggregate amount of $2,160,675,000 for the purpose of effecting a repricing and extending the maturity date, in each case, of the term loans under the Existing Credit Agreement. The term loans bear interest, at the Borrower’s option, (i) at an adjusted Eurodollar rate plus an “applicable margin” credit spread or (ii) at an alternative base rate plus an “applicable margin” credit spread. Among other amendments provided for by the Amendment Agreement, the Amendment Agreement lowers the “applicable margin” credit spread for adjusted Eurodollar rate term loans from 2.00% to 1.75% per annum and lowers the “applicable margin” credit spread for alternative base rate term loans from 1.00% to 0.75% per annum and extends the maturity date of the term loans from March 29, 2024 to March 27, 2025.

Some of the lenders, agents and arrangers under the Amendment Agreement and Amended Credit Agreement and their respective affiliates have provided, and may provide in the future, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for LVSC and its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, for which they have received and will receive customary compensation.
