Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On July 28, 2017, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") of Full House Resorts, Inc. (the "Company") adopted the Full House Resorts, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan for Executives (the "Plan"), effective as of January 1, 2017. The Plan is an annual short-term incentive plan designed to reward certain executives of the Company for achieving pre-established corporate performance goals during a given performance period. The purpose of such Plan is to provide an incentive for superior performance and to motivate participating executives toward the highest levels of achievement and business results, to tie their goals and interests to those of the Company and its stockholders, and to enable the Company to attract and retain highly qualified executives.

Participation in the Plan is limited to the following executives of the Company: (a) Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel, Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Development Officer; and (b) such other executives, in each case, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. The Committee will designate the executives among those eligible who will participate in the Plan for each performance period.

The Committee will establish, with respect to each performance period, one or more performance goals, a specific target objective or objectives with respect to such performance goals, and an objective formula or method for computing the amount of bonus compensation awardable to each participating executive if the performance goals are attained. Performance goals will be based upon one or more of the business criteria for the Company as a whole or any of its subsidiaries or operating units as designated by the Committee in its discretion. Any bonus awards under the Plan will be payable in cash or common stock (or any combination of cash or common stock), and any portion of such bonus award payable in the form of common stock will be subject to the terms and conditions (including the applicable share limitations) of the Company's 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time, or any other plan adopted by the Company pursuant to which shares of common stock may be granted.

The description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated in this Item 5.02 by reference.
