ITEM 1.01.			Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, on April 3, 2019, Marina Bay Sands Pte. Ltd. (“MBS”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Las Vegas Sands Corp. (the “Company”), and the Singapore Tourism Board (the “STB”) entered into a Development Agreement (the “Development Agreement”), pursuant to which MBS will construct a development, which includes a comprehensive range of integrated amenities for tourism, recreation, entertainment and lifestyle uses (the “MBS Expansion Project”). In connection with entering into the Development Agreement, MBS made an upfront premium payment of $963 million to lease the parcels of land underlying the MBS Expansion Project site through August 21, 2066.

Since entering into the Development Agreement, MBS has further progressed the development plans for the MBS Expansion Project and has made certain changes thereto, which require an allocation of gross floor area across the MBS Expansion Project by the STB (the “Allocation”) and the purchase of 2,000 square meters of approved gaming area and 10,000 square meters of ancillary area in support of the gaming area from the STB (the “Additional Gaming Area Purchase”) to make the planned changes. In connection with the foregoing, on January 8, 2025, MBS entered into a second supplemental agreement to the Development Agreement with the Singapore government (the “Second Supplemental Agreement”) whereby MBS committed to assume liability for the cost of the land premium associated with the Additional Gaming Area Purchase as well as other adjustments to the land premiums resulting from the consequential changes to the allocations of gross floor area for the MBS Expansion Project since the first payment made in 2019. These allocations prescribe and limit the use of the gross floor area for hotel, gaming, retail, food and beverage, meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions (“MICE”) and arena at the MBS Expansion Project site. The Second Supplemental Agreement also formalizes the dates by which MBS has agreed with the Singapore government to commence and complete construction of the MBS Expansion Project, being July 8, 2025 and July 8, 2029, respectively. These dates were previously agreed by way of the letter agreement, dated April 1, 2024 between the STB and MBS as disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8‑K filed on April 5, 2024. The additional upfront payment amount under the Second Supplemental Agreement is currently anticipated to be approximately $1 billion.

The foregoing summary of the Second Supplemental Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full and complete text of the Second Supplemental Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
