DURANGO DRIVE Las Vegas NV 89113 Explanatory Note This Amendment No. 14 (the "Amendment") to the Schedule 13D filed on November 24, 2008, as previously amended (the "Schedule 13D"), is being filed to reflect (i) passive increases in the percentages of outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons (as defined below) solely due to the Issuer's repurchases of Common Stock, (ii) exercise of options set to expire on January 25, 2026, and the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer underlying such options, by The Miriam Adelson Trust and (iii) sales of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer by Irwin Chafetz. All items not described herein remain as previously reported in the Schedule 13D, and all capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. Dr. Miriam Adelson ("Dr. Adelson"), Irwin Chafetz ("Mr. Chafetz"), the General Trust under the Sheldon G. Adelson 2007 Remainder Trust (the "Remainder Trust") and the General Trust under the Sheldon G. Adelson 2007 Friends and Family Trust (the "Friends and Family Trust" and, together with Dr. Adelson, Mr. Chafetz, and the Remainder Trust, the "Reporting Persons"), constitute a "group," which, as of the date hereof, collectively beneficially owns approximately 386,724,043 shares of Common Stock, or 57.4%, of the Issuer's 672,851,932 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of December 16, 2025 (the "Outstanding Common Stock") for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), plus options to purchase 561,578 shares of Common Stock held by The Miriam Adelson Trust. Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the text below to the end of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D.
