FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Melco Crown Entertainment Announces Departure of CFO
New York, August 13, 2010 Melco Crown Entertainment Limited (NASDAQ: MPEL), a developer and
owner of casino gaming and entertainment resort facilities focused on the Macau market, announced
today that following a discussion with Simon Dewhurst, he tendered
his resignation from his position as EVP
and Chief Financial Officer. We thank Simon for his past support and contributions to Melco Crown
Entertainment.
As Melco Crown Entertainment transitions from a development company to one focused primarily on
maximizing its operational profitability, and as a logical next step in the management
reorganization announced last month, the Companys intention is to identify a CFO who, in addition
to having solid financial and operational experience, also possesses skills that are aligned with
the current needs of the Company.
To ensure a seamless transition, Leanne Palmer, currently Vice President, Financial Compliance for
Melco Crown Entertainment, has assumed the role of acting CFO in the interim period, while the Company
conducts a global search for a suitable candidate with exceptional caliber to fill the CFO
position. Ms. Palmer is a Chartered Accountant with over 16 years of experience and is a specialist
on Sarbanes Oxley compliance, corporate governance and internal control.
Additionally, Geoffrey Davis, CFA, has been promoted to Deputy CFO and Treasurer on a permanent
basis and will be based in Macau. Prior to joining Melco Crown Entertainment as Senior Vice
President, Corporate Finance in 2007, he was the lead
1
equity research analyst at Citi Investment
Research covering the gaming industry. He had previously been Vice President, Corporate Finance
for Park Place Entertainment in Las Vegas.
