Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
The information provided in Item 2.03 below is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangement of a Registrant.
On October 29, 2010, Full House Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”), as borrower, entered into a
Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with the financial institutions from time to time listed
therein (the “Lenders”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as administrative agent for the
Lenders, as collateral agent for the Secured Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement), as
security trustee for the Lenders, as Letters of Credit Issuer and as Swing Line Lender. The Credit
Agreement provides for a term loan to the Company in an amount up to $31.3 million and a revolving
loan to the Company in an amount up to $4.7 million. Funds borrowed under the Credit Agreement
will be used to fund the Company’s previously announced $43 million acquisition — exclusive of
approximately $8 million of cage cash on hand and net working capital — of the Grand Victoria
Casino and Resort in Rising Sun, Indiana. The acquisition and initial funding of the Credit
Agreement is expected to occur during the first quarter of 2011.
On or prior to the initial funding date, the Credit Agreement will be secured by substantially
all of the Company’s assets. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries will guarantee the obligations
of the Company under the Credit Agreement.
Once funding occurs, the Company will pay interest under the Credit Agreement at either the
Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Base Rate means, on any day,
the greatest of (a) Wells Fargo’s prime rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Rate in
effect on the business day prior to such day plus one and one half percent (1.50%) and (c) the One
Month LIBOR Rate for such day (determined on a daily basis as set forth in the Credit Agreement)
plus one and one-half percent (1.50%). LIBOR Rate means a rate per annum equal to the quotient
(rounded upward if necessary to the nearest 1/16 of one percent) of (a) the greater of (1) 1.50%
and (2) the rate per annum referred to as the BBA (British Bankers Association) LIBOR RATE divided
by (b) one minus the reserve requirement set forth in the Credit Agreement for such loan in effect
from time to time.
The Credit Agreement contains customary negative covenants for transactions of this type,
including, but not limited to, restrictions on the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to:
incur indebtedness; grant liens; pay dividends and make other restricted payments; make
investments; make fundamental changes; dispose of assets; and change the nature of their business.
The negative covenants are subject to certain exceptions as specified in the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default, including, among other things:
non-payment; breach of covenant; breach of representation or warranty; cross-default under certain
other indebtedness or guarantees; commencement of insolvency proceedings; inability to pay debts;
entry of certain material judgments against the Company or its subsidiaries; occurrence of certain
ERISA events; and certain changes of control.
The closing of the Grand Victoria Casino and Resort acquisition and the initial funding of the
Credit Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, including, among
other things the receipt of all applicable gaming approvals.
The preceding summary of the Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of such agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated
herein by reference.
