Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On December 21, 2016, State Senator Jon Ford (R-Terre Haute) issued a press release announcing that he is sponsoring a bill that would permit the construction of a new gaming and entertainment facility in Terre Haute, Indiana. The legislation would permit Rising Star Casino Resort in Rising Sun, Indiana - which is owned and operated by Full House Resorts, Inc. (the "Company") - to relocate up to half of its state-approved gambling games to a new gaming, dining and hotel venue in Terre Haute. The Company confirms that it has been in discussions with Senator Ford and is interested in pursuing the development of such facility. There can be no assurances that the proposed legislation will pass or become law or, even if the proposed legislation were to become law, that the Company would be successful in developing a new gaming facility in Terre Haute with respect to such opportunity.
The press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
