LAS VEGAS, Feb. 13, 2012 MGM Resorts International MGM -0.27% today announced that CityCenter Holdings, LLC, a joint venture which is 50% owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and 50% owned by Infinity World Development Corp. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Dubai World), and CityCenter Finance Corp. propose to offer $240 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured first lien notes in a private placement. The notes are additional notes constituting a part of the same series as the $900 million aggregate principal amount of 7.625% senior secured first lien notes due 2016 issued on January 21, 2011.

The notes proposed to be offered will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to any U.S. persons absent registration under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The notes will be offered only to “qualified institutional buyers” under Rule 144A of the Securities Act or, outside the United States, to persons other than “U.S. persons” in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The Company gives no assurance that the proposed offering can be completed on any terms.
