FIRST AMENDMENT TO SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
This First Amendment to Settlement Agreement (this “Amendment”) is dated as of January 28, 2015, by and among Daniel R. Lee, Bradley M. Tirpak and Craig W. Thomas (the foregoing individuals being collectively referred to as the “Concerned Shareholders”) and Full House Resorts, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
WHEREAS, on November 28, 2014, the Concerned Shareholders and the Company entered into that certain Settlement Agreement;
WHEREAS, on November 28, 2014, the Concerned Shareholders’ Nominees (as defined below) were appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”);
WHEREAS, on January 27, 2015, in the interests of reducing the size of the Company’s Board and thereby reducing corporate compliance and regulatory costs, Director Raymond Hemmig resigned from the Board;
WHEREAS, in light of the foregoing, the Concerned Shareholders and the Company believe it to be in the best interest of the Company to amend only those portions of the Settlement Agreement necessary to reflect the reduction in Board size from nine to eight members;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

Baird Garret, Raymond Hemmig, Ellis Landau, Daniel R. Lee, Bradley M. Tirpak and Craig W. Thomas (the “Concerned Shareholders’ Nominees”) to the Board. Following the January 27, 2015 resignation from the Board of Raymond Hemmig (the “Hemmig Resignation”) and the reduction of the Board size from nine to eight members, the Company agrees to nominate each of Kenneth R. Adams, Carl G. Braunlich, Kathleen Marshall and each of the six Concerned Shareholders’ Nominees, as amended to reflect the Hemmig Resignation (collectively, the “2015 Nominees”) for election at the Company’s 2015 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2015 Annual Meeting”) and recommend that the stockholders of the Company vote to elect the 2015 Nominees as directors at the 2015 Annual Meeting. The Company and each of the Concerned Shareholders’ Nominees shall make all necessary filings required in connection with the election of the Concerned Shareholders’ Nominees, as amended for the Hemmig Resignation, with any governmental or regulatory authority that has, or may have, jurisdiction over the Company.
(b) Except as expressly provided and to the limited extent set forth in this Amendment, the Settlement Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
