This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the combined Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement filed under cover of Schedule TO (the “ Schedule TO ”) and relates to the offer by EGT Nevada Holding Inc. (“ Purchaser ”), a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Melco International Development Limited (“ Melco ”), a Hong Kong-listed company, to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (individually, a “ Share ” and collectively, the “ Shares ”), of Entertainment Gaming Asia Inc. (“ Entertainment Gaming ”), a Nevada corporation, that are not already owned by Purchaser or its affiliates for $2.35 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated May 5, 2017 (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the “ Offer to Purchase ”), and the related Letter of Transmittal (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the “ Letter of Transmittal ” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “ Offer ”), copies of which are attached as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively, to the Schedule TO.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference to the extent relevant to the items in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase.

Schedule TO.

The Schedule TO is hereby amended as follows:

Items 1 through 9, Item 11 and Item 13.

The Offer and Items 1 through 9, Item 11 and Item 13 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended as follows:

1. The Minimum Condition . Purchaser is amending the Offer such that the Offer is no longer conditioned upon any minimum number of Shares being tendered. Purchaser has determined that it is prepared to provide liquidity to any stockholder of Entertainment Gaming that wishes to sell his, her or its Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer, even if upon consummation of the Offer, Purchaser will not be able to complete the Merger. As a result, Purchaser may consummate the Offer even if the Shares tendered represent (x) less than a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares excluding Shares owned by Purchaser or its affiliates, and (y) less than 90% of outstanding Shares when combined with the Shares owned by Purchaser and its affiliates. If Purchaser consummates the Offer notwithstanding the fact that the Shares tendered represent less than 90% of outstanding Shares when combined with the Shares owned by Purchaser and its affiliates, Purchaser will be unable to cause the Merger to be effectuated and may continue to operate Entertainment Gaming as a standalone company with Purchaser and its affiliates continuing to own a controlling stake in Entertainment Gaming. Accordingly, the Offer is amended and restated as follows:

(a) The Offer to Purchase, Letter of Transmittal, Notice of Guaranteed Delivery (Exhibit (a)(1)(C)), Letter to Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Nominees (Exhibit (a)(1)(D)) and Letter to Clients for use by Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Nominees (Exhibit (a)(1)(E)) are amended and restated to remove statements which indicate that the Offer is conditioned upon there being validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer such number of Shares that (x) would represent at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Shares, excluding Shares owned by Purchaser or its affiliates and (y) when combined with the Shares currently owned by Purchaser and its affiliates, would constitute at least 90% of the outstanding Shares as of the date the Shares are accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer (the “ Minimum Condition ”), including on the cover page of the Offer to Purchase and the sections of the Offer to Purchase titled “Summary Term Sheet,” “Introduction,” “Special Factors—Section 2. Purpose of and Reasons for the Offer; Plans for Entertainment Gaming,” “Special Factors—Section 4. Our Position Regarding the Fairness of the Offer,” “Special Factors—Section 5. Effects of the Offer,” “Special Factors—Section 6. Conduct of Entertainment Gaming’s Business if the Offer Is Not Consummated,” “The Offer—Section 1. Terms of the Offer,” “The Offer—Section 2. Acceptance for Payment and Payment” and “The Offer—Section 11. Conditions of the Offer.”

1

(b) The paragraph titled “Is your financial condition relevant to my decision to tender my Shares in the Offer?” in the section of the Offer to Purchase titled “Summary Term Sheet” is amended and restated by replacing the fourth bullet point with the following clause:

“• if we and our affiliates own at least 90% of the Shares following the consummation of the Offer, we expect to acquire any remaining Shares for the same cash price per Share in any subsequent offering period or in the Merger.”

(c) The paragraph titled “Is this the first step in a going-private transaction?” in the section of the Offer to Purchase titled “Summary Term Sheet” is amended and restated by inserting the following sentence as the penultimate sentence of the paragraph:

“However, if we consummate the Offer notwithstanding the fact that the Shares tendered represent less than 90% of outstanding Shares when combined with the Shares owned by us and our affiliates, we will be unable to cause the Merger to be effectuated and may continue to operate Entertainment Gaming as a standalone company.”

(d) The sentence beginning “The Offer does not compel . . .” in the section of the Offer to Purchase titled “Special Factors—Section 2. Purpose of and Reasons for the Offer; Plans for Entertainment Gaming” is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“The Offer does not compel any stockholder to sell its Shares and provides liquidity to all minority stockholders of Entertainment Gaming even if some or a majority of minority stockholders do not tender their Shares.”

(e) The subsection titled “Plans for Entertainment Gaming” in the section of the Offer to Purchase titled “Special Factors—Section 2. Purpose of and Reasons for the Offer; Plans for Entertainment Gaming” is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“ Plans for Entertainment Gaming. If the Merger is consummated following the Offer to Purchase, we expect to operate Entertainment Gaming in substantially the same manner as it is currently being operated. Entertainment Gaming will survive the Merger as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Melco. Although we believe that the Merger will afford us the opportunity to create organizational efficiencies, we do not at this time have any plans with respect to initiating any consolidations or reduction in operations or employee headcounts or any definitive plans with respect to Entertainment Gaming’s management. Any such decisions would be made based on, among other factors, the business requirements of Entertainment Gaming and will not be conditioned on the completion of the Offer, the Merger or any other transaction. If, however, we and our affiliates collectively own less than 90% of the Shares following the consummation of the Offer, we will be unable to cause the Merger to be effectuated and may continue to operate Entertainment Gaming as a standalone company.

If the Offer is consummated (whether or not the Merger is consummated), we expect to continue to review Entertainment Gaming’s business, assets, debt obligations, corporate and board structure, capitalization, operations, properties, policies, management and personnel to consider and determine what other changes, if any, would be appropriate or desirable. We expressly reserve the right to make any changes that we deem necessary, appropriate or convenient in light of our review or future developments. Possible changes include changes to Entertainment Gaming’s management, a divestiture of assets or a transfer of Entertainment Gaming’s assets to one or more of Melco’s other operating entities.

2

If we consummate the Offer without obtaining a sufficient number of Shares to enable us to cause the Merger to be effectuated, we will review our options. Our options would include, among other things: (i) not taking any action at that time, including not purchasing any additional Shares; (ii) purchasing Shares from time to time in the open market or privately negotiated transactions (including to acquire at least 90% of the outstanding Shares so that we could consummate a short-form merger); or (iii) seeking other means of monetizing Melco’s interest in Entertainment Gaming. This may include disposing of Melco’s interest in Entertainment Gaming at a price per Share which may be less than, greater than or equal to the Offer Price. In connection with any such efforts to monetize its stake in Entertainment Gaming, Melco may seek to engage an independent trustee or liquidator which may (1) sell Entertainment Gaming in its entirety (in which case, Melco would give the trustee authority to accept any unconditional cash offer of USD $2.35 or greater per Share on its behalf) or (2) sell Entertainment Gaming’s remaining assets for the highest possible values and distribute the proceeds to all Entertainment Gaming stockholders (including Melco), and then liquidate Entertainment Gaming. Melco would not participate as a bidder with respect to any assets of Entertainment Gaming so as to ensure a level field for all potential buyers.

Except as otherwise described in this Offer to Purchase, we have no current plans, proposals or negotiations that relate to or would result in: (i) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, consolidation or liquidation involving Entertainment Gaming or any of its subsidiaries; (ii) any purchase, sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of Entertainment Gaming or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) a material change in the present dividend policy, indebtedness or capitalization of Entertainment Gaming; (iv) any change in the present Entertainment Gaming Board or management of Entertainment Gaming; or (v) any other material change in Entertainment Gaming’s corporate structure or business. For information regarding our plans if the Offer is not consummated, see ‘Special Factors—Section 6. Conduct of Entertainment Gaming’s Business if the Offer Is Not Consummated.’ We currently intend to retain the Shares acquired pursuant to the Offer and, if consummated, the Merger.”

(f) The paragraph beginning “If the Minimum Condition . . .” in the section of the Offer to Purchase titled “Special Factors—Section 5. Effects of the Offer” is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“If we and our affiliates own at least 90% of the Shares following the consummation of the Offer, we intend to cause the Merger to be effectuated without a vote of, or prior notice to, the stockholders of Entertainment Gaming in accordance with Section 92A.180 of the NRS. If we consummate the Offer notwithstanding the fact that the Shares tendered represent less than 90% of outstanding Shares when combined with the Shares owned by us and our affiliates, we will be unable to cause the Merger to be effectuated and may continue to operate Entertainment Gaming as a standalone company.”

(g) The sentence beginning “We do not think . . .” in the section of the Offer to Purchase titled “The Offer—Section 10. Source and Amount of Funds” is amended and restated by replacing clause (d) with the following:

“(d) if we and our affiliates own at least 90% of the Shares following the consummation of the Offer, we expect to acquire any remaining Shares for the same cash price per Share in any subsequent offering period or in the Merger.”

2. Schedule 14D-9 . On May 19, 2017, Entertainment Gaming filed a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 in which the Entertainment Gaming Board made no recommendation regarding whether the holders of Shares should accept or reject the Offer and instead remained neutral with respect to the Offer. The Offer to Purchase, Letter of Transmittal, Notice of Guaranteed Delivery (Exhibit (a)(1)(C)), Letter to Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Nominees (Exhibit (a)(1)(D)) and Letter to Clients for use by Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Nominees (Exhibit (a)(1)(E)) are amended to reflect this filing, including on the cover page of the Offer to Purchase and the sections of the Offer to Purchase titled “Summary Term Sheet,” “Introduction,” “Special Factors—Section 3.
