Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

On February 1, 2004, Las Vegas Sands Corp. (the "Company") announced that it planned to offer $250 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes in a Rule 144A offering and that its subsidiaries, Las Vegas Sands, Inc. ("Las Vegas Sands Opco") and Venetian Casino Resort, LLC ("Venetian"), planned to amend and restate their senior secured credit facility and had commenced a tender offer for their outstanding 11% mortgage notes due 2010 (the "11% mortgage notes"). In connection with transactions, the Company plans to provide certain information to potential investors. As a result, Las Vegas Sands Opco is making the following disclosures to comply with Regulation FD.

Use of Proceeds

Concurrently with the senior note offering of the Company (the "note offering"), Las Vegas Sands Opco is seeking to amend its existing senior secured credit facility to increase borrowings by $400.0 million of additional term loans, expand its revolving credit facility from $125.0 million to $400.0 million, lower its interest costs and revise some of its covenants to provide greater operational flexibility. As amended, this facility is expected to provide for aggregate borrowings of up to $1.570 billion, consisting of a $1.170 billion term loan facility and a $400.0 million revolving credit facility.

All gross proceeds from the note offering will be deposited into an escrow account upon consummation of the note offering and will be released from escrow upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including the acceptance of any 11% mortgage notes validly tendered in the tender offer, the removal of most of the restrictive covenants under the indenture governing the 11% mortgage notes and the effectiveness of the amendments to Las Vegas Sands Opco's existing senior secured credit facility described below.

The Company will use the net proceeds of the note offering and the additional term loan borrowings available under Las Vegas Sands Opco's amended senior secured credit facility to:

The following is a summary of the estimated sources and uses of net proceeds from the refinancing transactions (dollars in thousands):

Sources of Funds:
Amended senior secured credit facility:
	Additional term loan B borrowings	$	400,000
Senior notes due 2015			250,000
	Total sources	$	650,000
Uses of Funds:
11% mortgage notes due 2010		$	552,500
Tender premiums and related expenses(1)			81,353
Fees and expenses			9,475
Excess cash from additional term loan B borrowings			6,672
	Total uses	$	650,000

tendered and receive the tender consideration described herein plus a consent payment equal to $30.00 per $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of 11% mortgage notes tendered.

Amended Senior Credit Facility

Las Vegas Sands Opco and Venetian entered into the existing senior secured credit facility on August 20, 2004. The existing senior secured credit facility allows the borrowers to borrow up to $1.010 billion from Goldman Sachs Credit Partners L.P., The Bank of Nova Scotia and the other lenders thereunder. The Bank of Nova Scotia acts as the administrative and collateral agent for the lenders. It is expected that the existing senior secured credit facility will be amended and restated. The following is a summary of the principal terms of the existing senior secured credit facility and the expected terms of the amended senior secured credit facility.

Structure. The existing senior secured credit facility consists of (1) a $115.0 million term loan A, which is subject to existing delayed draw period until February 20, 2006, (2) a $770.0 million term loan B, of which $665.0 million was funded on August 20, 2004 and the remaining $105.0 million is subject to a delayed draw period until February 20, 2005 and (3) a $125.0 million revolving credit facility (with a $75.0 million subfacility for letters of credit). As of December 31, 2004, $60 million of letters of credit were outstanding, which reduced the amount available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility.

The amended senior secured credit facility is expected to consist of a $1.170 billion term loan facility ($105.0 million of which is subject to a delayed draw period until August 20, 2005) and a $400.0 million revolving credit facility (with a $125.0 million subfacility for letters of credit). The $115.0 million delayed draw term loan A facility is expected to be terminated.

Use of Proceeds. A portion of the proceeds of the existing term loan B facility funded on August 20, 2004 was used to refinance Las Vegas Sands Opco's prior senior secured credit facility under which approximately $290.0 million was outstanding as of August 20, 2004 and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the existing senior secured credit facility.

Las Vegas Sands Opco intends to use the proceeds under the amended term loan B facilities to fund a portion of the retirement costs of the 11% mortgage notes, to refinance borrowings under the existing senior secured credit facility and to finance a portion of the design, development, construction and pre-opening costs of the Palazzo Casino Resort.

Following the utilization of all term loan proceeds, the proceeds of borrowings under the revolving credit facility (minus the then current letter of credit usage) may be used to finance a portion of the design, development, construction and pre-opening costs of the Palazzo Casino Resort. The proceeds of borrowings under the revolving credit facility may also be used for general corporate purposes.

Guarantors. Subject to certain exceptions, each of Las Vegas Sands Opco's existing and subsequently acquired or organized U.S. subsidiaries has guaranteed the existing senior secured credit facility on a first-priority senior secured basis. Phase II Mall Holding, LLC, Phase II Mall Subsidiary, LLC, Interface Holding and its subsidiaries, the Macau subsidiaries and certain other subsidiaries are excluded subsidiaries and do not guarantee the loans. The same subsidiaries will guarantee the amended senior secured credit facility.

Security. The obligations of the borrowers under the existing senior secured credit facility and the obligations of guarantors under the guarantees are secured by first priority security interests in substantially all of the borrowers' and substantially all of each guarantor's assets (other than capital stock). The collateral does not include certain furniture, fixtures and equipment that secure any FF&E financing arrangements entered into by the borrowers or certain subsidiaries. The collateral arrangements are not expected to change in the amended senior secured credit facility.

Disbursement Arrangements. The provisions of the disbursement agreement previously disclosed apply to both the existing senior secured credit facility and the amended senior secured credit facility.

Maturity. The borrowers must repay in full all amounts outstanding under the term loan A facility and revolving credit facility on August 20, 2009, and all amounts outstanding under the term loan B facility on June 15, 2011 provided that, in the event that the existing 11% mortgage notes co-issued by the borrowers are not repaid, deferred or refinanced in full on or prior to December 15, 2009 (with such refinancing extending the maturity date of such indebtedness to a date no earlier than August 20, 2012), then the maturity date of the term loan B facility will be December 15, 2009.

As amended, the term loan B facility is expected to mature on June 15, 2011 and the revolving facility is expected to mature in March 2010.

Amortization. The existing senior secured credit facility includes a term loan A facility, which will be terminated as part of the proposed amendment to such facility. Commencing on January 1, 2006, the existing term loan A facility will amortize each year (in equal quarterly installments) in the following annual amounts (stated as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the term loan A facility that has been drawn):

Year	Annual Percentage of Aggregate Principal Amount
2006	10	%
2007	15	%
2008	25	%
2009	50	%

Commencing with the first full fiscal quarter after substantial completion of the Palazzo Casino Resort, both in the existing senior secured credit facility and the amended senior secured credit facility, the term loan B facility will amortize during each twelve-month period (in equal quarterly installments) in an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the term loan B facility, with the remainder due in equal quarterly installments in the final year prior to the maturity date of the term loan B facility.

No amortization is required with respect to the revolving credit facility.

Interest. All amounts outstanding under the existing senior secured credit facility bear interest, at the borrowers' option, at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum or the base rate plus 1.50% per annum. Beginning on the first interest period occurring after the date on which the Palazzo Casino Resort and the Phase II mall are substantially completed, the applicable margin for the term loan facilities will range from LIBOR plus 2.25% to LIBOR plus 2.50%, or the base rate plus 1.25% to the base rate plus 1.50% per annum, and the applicable margin for the revolving credit facility will range from LIBOR plus 2.0% to LIBOR plus 2.50%, or the base rate plus 1.0% to the base rate plus 1.50% per annum, and such applicable margins will be determined based on the ratio of consolidated total indebtedness as of the date of the financial statements most recently delivered to the lenders to EBITDA for the four-fiscal quarter period ending on such date.

As amended, the amended senior secured credit facility is expected to have lower margins than the existing senior secured credit facility.

Interest on overdue amounts following an event of default shall accrue at a rate equal to the applicable interest rate on such loans plus an additional 2.0% per annum.

Optional Prepayments. Under both the existing senior secured credit facility and the amended senior secured credit facility, the borrowers may prepay loans and reduce the amounts available to

them at any time by giving prior notice thereof, in each case, without premium or penalty. However, prior to substantial completion of the Palazzo Casino Resort and the Phase II mall, voluntary prepayments or commitment reductions are only permitted so long as, after giving effect thereto, the Phase II project is "in-balance" (meaning that there are sufficient available funds to complete each of the Palazzo Casino Resort and the Phase II mall, as determined pursuant to the terms of the disbursement agreement).

Mandatory Prepayments. The amended senior secured credit facility is expected to include the following mandatory prepayments:

Disbursement Requirement. If, on the date that is the earlier of (a) the date that the full $552.0 million of equity required has been utilized to pay project costs of the Palazzo Casino Resort and (b) December 31, 2005, all of the conditions under the disbursement agreement to the disbursement of proceeds of the term loans for the financing of design, development, construction and pre-opening costs of the Palazzo Casino Resort have not been satisfied or waived, (i) the borrowers are required to apply the proceeds of the term loans then on deposit with the disbursement agent to prepay the loans under the existing or amended senior secured credit facility, and (ii) all outstanding commitments under the term loan A and/or the term loan B delayed draw facility will be terminated.

Fees. The borrowers are expected to pay the following fees under the amended senior secured credit facility:

Financial Covenants. The amended senior secured credit facility is expected to include financial covenants that require that Las Vegas Sands Opco:

amounts no greater than specified levels (with unexpended amounts carrying over to, but only to, the next succeeding year and prorated for partial-year periods).

The amended senior secured credit facility also is expected to contain covenants including limitations with respect to the following:

The amended senior secured credit facility is also expected to require the borrowers to retire any remaining outstanding 11% mortgage notes within a specified period after the closing of such credit facility.

Events of Default. The amended senior secured credit facility is expected to contain events of default including the following:

Financing of Palazzo Casino Resort

Because the Company has other sufficient funds, it elected to allow the furniture, fixtures and equipment ("FF&E") commitment from a lender to Las Vegas Sands Opco to partially fund development and construction costs for the Palazzo Casino Resort to expire in December 2004. The Company expects to fund the development and construction of the Palazzo Casino Resort at its current budget of approximately $1.6 billion (exclusive of land and certain incentives) with a combination of the remaining net proceeds from the sale of The Grand Canal Shoppes, operating cash flow, proceeds from Las Vegas Sands Opco's amended senior secured credit facility, proceeds from the Phase II mall construction loan and other debt financings, and, if necessary, proceeds from the Company's initial public offering. We have available cash and have obtained facilities sufficient to finance the construction of the Palazzo Casino Resort at its current budget.
