Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Chief Executive Officer Employment Agreement
As previously reported, on April 20, 2007, Full House Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an employment agreement with Andre Hilliou, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. On July 17, 2007, the Company and Mr. Hilliou amended the agreement to provide that, effective June 1, 2007, Mr. Hilliou will receive an annual base salary of $250,000. In addition, Mr. Hilliou will be eligible for an annual bonus of up to 200% of annual salary, subject to the achievement of pre-defined annual performance objectives established by the Company’s compensation committee. In the event of death or termination due to illness or incapacity the Company shall pay Mr. Hilliou, or his estate as applicable, his base salary to the date of termination or death, which shall be no less than two years. The amended agreement has a two year term that is automatically renewed for successive periods of two years unless the Company or Mr. Hilliou elect otherwise or unless the amended agreement is otherwise terminated.
The foregoing description of the amended agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the amended agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Chief Financial Officer Employment Agreement
Also as previously reported, on April 20, 2007, Full House Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an employment agreement with Mark Miller, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. On July 17, 2007, the Company and Mr. Miller amended the agreement to provide that Mr. Miller is guaranteed a cash bonus equal to 50% of his annual base salary for the first year of employment, payable at the end of his first year of service, and at least four weeks of vacation each year. In the event of death or termination due to illness or incapacity the Company shall pay Mr. Miller, or his estate as applicable, his base salary to the date of termination or death, which shall be no less than one year. If the Company terminates Mr. Miller’s employment without cause, in addition to any other entitlements under the agreement, the Company will pay Mr. Miller his base salary for a period of one year and an annual bonus equal to the average of Mr. Miller’s annual bonuses from the previous three years. Mr. Miller is entitled to the same three year average bonus payment in the event of a change of control. Upon termination without cause or a change of control the average of any executive bonus plan operable for less than three years will be calculated using the number of years such plan has been in effect. Mr. Miller is also entitled to a relocation allowance of up to $20,000 in temporary housing and moving expenses.
The foregoing description of the amended agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the amended agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
