Caesars released a statement Monday saying it had been granted approval from shareholders and gaming authorities for the restructuring of CEOC, which filed for bankruptcy protection in January 2015.
As part of the reorganization plan, Caesars Entertainment - formed from the 2008 buyout of Harrah’s - will merge with another subsidiary, Caesars Acquisition Co.
That merger and the restructuring are still subject to certain financing and real estate transactions, various internal and third party transfers and other closing conditions, the company stated.
