SCHEDULE 13D
 
 
Page 3 of 5 Pages
 
This Amendment No. 13 hereby amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 13, 2002, as amended to date (the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Common Stock”) of Wynn Resorts, Limited (the “Company”).  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.

Item 2.                    Identity and Background.

Item 2 is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) The Schedule 13D is being filed by Elaine P. Wynn (“Ms. Wynn” or the “Reporting Person”).

(b) The business address of the Reporting Person is c/o Elaine P. Wynn and Family Foundation, 3800 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 960, Las Vegas, Nevada 89169.

(c) The Reporting Person is a philanthropist and business person.

(d) During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e) During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which proceeding she was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f) Ms. Wynn is a citizen of the United States of America.

Item 4.                    Purpose of Transaction 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On March 14, 2018, Ms. Wynn and Stephen A. Wynn (“Mr. Wynn”) presented the Eighth Judicial District Court in Clark County, Nevada (the “District Court”) in the case of Wynn Resorts, Limited vs. Kazuo Okada, et al., Case No. A-12-656710 (the “Litigation”) with a stipulation agreeing that the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, dated as of January 6, 2010, among Ms. Wynn, Mr. Wynn and Aruze USA, Inc. (the “Stockholders Agreement”) is invalid and unenforceable as a matter of law and that none of the parties to the Stockholders Agreement shall have any further rights or obligations thereunder. The District Court entered an order (the “Order”) approving the parties’ stipulation and dismissing certain of Ms. Wynn’s claims in the Litigation on March 14, 2018.

Upon entry of the Order by the District Court, the Stockholders Agreement is no longer deemed to bind Ms. Wynn, and Ms. Wynn is no longer deemed to be part of a “group” (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-5(b) under the Act) with Mr. Wynn and Wynn Family Limited Partnership (“WFLP”).  Accordingly, Ms. Wynn no longer files the Schedule 13D jointly with Mr. Wynn and WFLP.

SCHEDULE 13D

Item 5.                   Interest in Securities of the Issuer 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) As of the date hereof, Ms. Wynn may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 9,539,077 shares of Common Stock, which equates to approximately 9.26% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.  The beneficial ownership percentage is based on a total of 103,017,861 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 15, 2018, as reported in the Company’s Form 10-K filed on February 28, 2018. 

(b) As of the date hereof, Ms. Wynn may be deemed to have sole voting and dispositive power over 9,539,077 shares of Common Stock.

(c)  The response to Item 4 of this Amendment No. 13 is incorporated by reference herein.  Other than as reported in this Amendment No. 13, no transactions in the Common Stock have been effected by Ms. Wynn within the past 60 days.

(d) This Item 5(d) is not applicable.

(e) This Item 5(e) is not applicable.

The response to Item 4 of this Amendment No. 13 is incorporated by reference herein.

Except as set forth herein, Ms. Wynn has no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of the Company, including but not limited to any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships concerning the transfer or voting of such securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
