Light & Wonder, Inc. (NASDAQ:LNW) announced Thursday that its wholly owned subsidiary, Light and Wonder International, Inc., has entered into Amendment No. 4 to its existing credit agreement. The amendment, dated Thursday, creates a new tranche of term loans totaling $2,134,562,718.75, which will mature on April 14, 2029. These new loans replace the company’s existing term loans.

According to the company’s statement in the SEC filing, the amendment also reduces the interest rate margin for the new term loans. Loans bearing interest at a term benchmark rate—such as SOFR, EURIBOR, or BBSY, as defined in the credit agreement—will now have an applicable margin of 2.00% per annum. Loans bearing interest at the alternate base rate (ABR) will have a margin of 1.00% per annum.

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. continues as the administrative agent, collateral agent, issuing lender, and swingline lender under the agreement. The credit agreement was originally dated April 14, 2022, and has been amended several times, most recently by this fourth amendment.

The company’s common stock was previously listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market but was delisted on November 13, 2025, following the company’s voluntary filing of Form 25 with the SEC on November 3, 2025. The stock is expected to be deregistered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act 90 days after the filing.

The information in this article is based on a press release statement included in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
