. In April 2024, after an extensive search assisted by a third-party search firm, the Board expanded from nine to ten members and elected Ms. Harris Jones to our Board of Directors. Ms. Harris Jones brings valuable experiences and perspective to our Board with significant management and financial experience with large complex global corporations and her service as a director on various public company boards. In March 2025, the size of our Board increased to twelve members and the Company appointed Messrs. Lynn and Papapostolou to our Board of Directors pursuant to the Director Nomination Agreement. Mr. Lynn brings to the Board his extensive experience in legal and finance as well as his experience as a director of other public companies. Mr. Papapostolou brings to the Board his significant experience in corporate finance and accounting as well as his service on the boards of other public companies. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, in consultation with the Executive Chairman of the Board, conducts annual evaluations/assessments of each of the Board’s members and respective committees. The assessments include an evaluation of each director’s individual skills and contributions to the Board. Additionally, the Board recognizes the importance of Board refreshment to enable fresh ideas and perspectives. The average tenure of our Board since the merger of Caesars Entertainment Corporation and ERI is 3.7 years. Please refer to the section titled “Selection of Directors—Qualifications, Skills & Tenure” for additional details on the individual skills of each director nominee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee expects to engage a third party to conduct such evaluations on a regular every-three-year basis.

Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are providing our shareholders the opportunity to vote to approve, on an advisory, non-bindingbasis, the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the SEC’s rules. This proposal, which is commonly referred to as “say-on-pay”,gives shareholders the opportunity, on an advisory basis, to approve, reject or abstain from voting with respect to such proposal. At the Company’s 2021 annual meeting of shareholders, our shareholders approved, on an advisory basis, to conduct say-on-payvotes on an annual basis (a “say on frequency” vote). Therefore, unless and until our Board decides otherwise, we will continue to hold say-on-payvotes
