This Amendment No. 1 (this
Amendment
) no longer includes in such figure the number of shares that CAI and Crown had previously agreed, pursuant to the Shareholders Deed described in Item 6
below, to retain and to vote in a manner identical to Melco Leisure and Entertainment Group Limited for so long as the Securities Loans described under Item 6 below are outstanding (the
Agreement to Vote
) since that Agreement to
Vote was terminated as of May 15, 2017. The number of shares subject to such voting arrangement were equivalent to the number of shares loaned under the Securities Loans. The Securities Loans were repaid on May 15, 2017, as a result of which the
loaned shares were returned to the Reporting Persons (and therefore are now included in the number above) at the same time that Crowns Agreement to Vote was terminated. As a result, the number of Ordinary Shares over which the Reporting
Persons have sole and shared voting power and beneficial ownership has not changed as a result of such events.

In addition, Mr. Ho holds options to purchase an aggregate of 5,574,729 Ordinary Shares, vested or vesting within 60 days of the date hereof, as further described in Item 6 below.

May 7, 2017.
(b) The Reporting Persons have not effected any transaction in Ordinary Shares during the past 60 days, except as
