Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

2.900% Senior Notes due 2025

On November 25, 2019, Las Vegas Sands Corp. (the "Company") completed its previously announced underwritten public offering of an aggregate principal amount of $500 million of the Company's 2.900% Senior Notes due 2025 (the "Notes"). The Notes were offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus, dated November 3, 2017, forming a part of the Company's shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-221334), and a prospectus supplement, dated November 21, 2019. The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include repurchases of the Company's common stock under the existing authorization by its board of directors.

The Notes are unsecured, senior obligations of the Company. The Notes will rank equally with the Company's other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. None of the Company's subsidiaries will guarantee the Notes.

The Indenture

The Notes were issued under an indenture, dated as of July 31, 2019 (the "Base Indenture"), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (the "Trustee"), as supplemented by a fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of November 25, 2019 (the "Fourth Supplemental Indenture"), between the Company and the Trustee, establishing the terms of the Notes (the Base Indenture, as so supplemented by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the "Indenture").

The Notes will accrue interest at the rate of 2.900% per year and will mature on June 25, 2025. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 25 and December 25, commencing on June 25, 2020.

The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, prior to May 25, 2025, at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus a "make-whole" premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, the Notes will be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on or after May 25, 2025, at 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The Notes are subject to redemption requirements imposed by gaming laws and regulations of the State of Nevada and other gaming authorities. Upon the occurrence of certain change of control triggering events, the Company will be required to offer to repurchase the Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the repurchase date.

The Indenture contains covenants, subject to customary exceptions and qualifications, that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things:



  • incur liens;


  • enter into sale and leaseback transactions; and

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all

of the Company's assets on a consolidated basis.

The Indenture also provides for customary events of default.
