HOUSTON, Dec. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Landcadia Holdings II, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: LCA), today announced at its special meeting of stockholders that it has received overwhelming support for the Golden Nugget Online Gaming business combination, with over 99% of the shares voted to date voting in favor of the proposed transaction.  However, not enough stockholders voted prior to the meeting, and therefore the meeting was adjourned until Tuesday, December 29, 2020 at 12:00 p.m. Eastern time, to allow for more time for stockholders to vote.

The special meeting is scheduled to reconvene on December 29, 2020 at 12:00 p.m. Eastern time and will be held virtually at https://www.cstproxy.com/landcadiaholdingsii/sm2020.
