10 CHEFS, 4 BUTCHERS, 14 PIGS: THE COSMOPOLITAN OF LAS VEGAS PLAYS HOST TO ALL-STAR COCHON 555 EVENT ON JULY 24

Cochon Adds an Exclusive ‘Best of’ Event to the 2011 Lineup Las Vegas, NV/Atlanta, GA (May 3, 2011) – On July 24, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas and Cochon 555, a national culinary competition promoting heritage breed pigs, will launch All-Star Cochon, a new pork-filled Las Vegas event. The event will feature winners from previous years including ten leading chefs and three star butchers who will each cook with 14 different heritage breed pigs this summer. “We are delighted to host the first Cochon 555 All-Star event and look forward to welcoming this talented line up of chefs to Las Vegas this summer,” says The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas CEO John Unwin. “Our food and beverage program is an integral part of The Cosmopolitan experience, so this partnership is ideal for us.” The ten chefs – past winners and fan favorites – will work together to prepare a ‘snout-to-tail’ menu from heritage breed pigs sourced in their local markets and then flown to Las Vegas for this ultimate pork tasting. Participating chefs and butchers include Joshua Applestone of Fleisher’s Meats (NY), Mary Dumont of Harvest (Boston), Duskie Estes & John Stewart of Zazu (Sonoma), Ryan Farr of 4505 Meats (SF), Devin Knell of French Laundry (Napa), Mark Ladner of Del Posto (NYC), Amelia Posada and Erika Nakamura of Lindy & Grundy (LA), Michael Sullivan of Blackberry Farm (Walland, TN), John Sundstrom of Lark (Seattle), the 2010 "King of Porc" David Varley of Michael Mina (San Francisco) and the 2011 Grand Cochon winner to be chosen at the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen. More chefs, butchers and special guests to be announced. In addition to pig every way, guests will be treated to side by side butchery demonstrations, cured meats, reserve wine tasting, craft brews and specially paired artisan cocktails. All-Star Cochon is the first new event added in the three-year-old competition series and the first time that Cochon will be in Las Vegas. “Through this three-year-long friendly competition and tasting tour, we have been championing family farms raising heritage breed pigs and connecting them with passionate, supportive chefs,” says event founder and Taste Network principal Brady Lowe. “We are excited to extend the tour into Las Vegas, it’s the ultimate place to celebrate the flavor benefits of heritage breed pigs.” Tickets for All-Star Cochon start at $150 per person for general admission and are available at www.cochon555.com or www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com. VIP tickets for $200 include a private tasting of reserve wines, artisan cheese, oysters and caviar.

THE COSMOPOLITAN OF LAS VEGAS ANNOUNCES A SPECIAL SECOND INSTALLMENT OF "FIGHT NIGHT" APRIL 29

<div style="text-align: center;">Molina and Conyers Collide at The Boulevard Pool </div> LAS VEGAS (April 25, 2011) On Friday, April 29, 2011, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas will present Molina vs. Conyers for the second occurrence of the series, "Fight Night at The Cosmopolitan,” to be televised live on ESPN2's "Friday Night Fights.” Doors open at 4:30 p.m. and the first televised fight is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. and the main event fight beginning promptly at 6 p.m. PST. Leon Margules, promoter of the ESPN2 "Friday Night Fights" broadcast from the luxurious outdoor deck of The Boulevard Pool at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, says he is excited to bring fans a can’t-miss main event featuring Chicago’s “King” Carlos Molina and fellow spoiler Allen “The Dream Shatterer” Conyers. Returning to the scene of his career-defining draw with Erislandy Lara in March, Molina (17-4-2, 5 KOs) will face Conyers (12-4, 9 KOs) in a 10-round junior middleweight bout that is sure to bring the action to the heart of the Las Vegas strip. Molina vs. Conyers serves as the replacement for the originally scheduled Victor Cayo vs. Lamont Peterson fight, which had to be called off due to an injury to Cayo. “Both of these fighters are coming off the biggest fights of their careers,” said event promoter Leon Margules of Warriors Boxing Promotion. “They both want to continue the momentum they’ve built by scoring another big win and both guys rarely take a step back in a fight. It will be a real treat for the fans. It’s a can’t-miss brawl and we’ve got it!” The gritty pair are both known for their penchants for pulling off upsets against top-rated prospects. Molina was last seen in March fighting to a draw with Lara, that most observers felt he won. In January of this year, Conyers beat highly touted James De la Rosa by unanimous decision, dropping him three times. Scheduled for the undercard are undefeated Cuban super featherweight Rances Barthelemy (11-0, 9 KO's), and Texas lightweight Hylon Williams Jr., (13-0, 3 KOs) in separate bouts. The Cosmopolitan proudly presents another uniquely glamorous evening of world-class professional boxing; and this time, overlooking the heart of the Strip on the open-air multilevel deck of the city’s most fabulous luxury pool, The Boulevard Pool. Tickets are on sale now and are priced at $50, $150 and $250 for the VIP experience, which includes a private section with comfortable seating and complimentary cocktails. Special Cabana packages also are available. Tickets are available for purchase at www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com or by calling 877-551-7776 or 702-698-6880.
