			WAIVER AND THIRD AMENDMENT TO INDENTURE
		

		
			 
		

		
			This WAIVER AND THIRD AMENDMENT TO INDENTURE (this “Amendment”), is entered into as of April 28, 2020, by and among Full House Resorts, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Guarantors (as defined herein), and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”).
		

		
			RECITALS
		

		
			The Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee are parties to that certain Indenture, dated as of February 2, 2018, as amended by a First Amendment dated as of June 20, 2018, as supplemented by a Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 13, 2018, and as amended by a Second Amendment dated as of May 10, 2019 (as such document may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”).  
		

		
			FHR-Colorado, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“FHR-Colorado”) acquired the property commonly known as Parcel ID: R000293, Cripple Creek, Colorado 80813 (the “Fuller Lot”), and pursuant to Section 4.18(b) of the Indenture, FHR-Colorado (i) is required to pledge the Fuller Lot to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as New Collateral and (ii) has not completed the pledge of the Fuller Lot in the time tables required by Section 4.18(b) of the Indenture. 
		

		
			The Company has informed the Trustee that in light of the recent COVID-19 pandemic, Government Authorities have issued certain Laws mandating an indefinite closure of the Company’s casino businesses (the “Indefinite Closure”). 
		

		
			As a result of the Indefinite Closure, the Company may not be able to comply with the following covenants: (i) Section 4.41 of the Indenture (Total Leverage Ratio) for the measurement period ending on March 31, 2020 (the “Total Leverage Ratio Covenant”); and (ii) Section 4.03(a)(1) of the Indenture (Financial Information; Notices), that requires the Company to deliver within 90 days of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 a financial statement to each Holder without a “going-concern” or like qualification or exception. 
		

		
			The Company has requested that the Trustee, with the consent of the 100% of the Noteholders (the “Consenting Noteholders”), execute and deliver this Amendment.
		

		
			The Company, with the consent of the Consenting Noteholders, desires to modify certain terms and conditions of the Indenture, and the parties hereto, with the consent of the Consenting Noteholders, are willing to agree to the modifications contained in this Amendment, and waive any potential non-compliance with the specified Indenture sections, on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
		

		
			NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valid consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			
	
			
				 1.
			Defined Terms.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Indenture, as amended hereby.

			
	
			
				 2.
			Amendment.  Company and Trustee hereby amend the Indenture as set forth below:

			
	
			
				 (a)
			Section 3.07(b) of the Indenture is amended by deleting and replacing the table therein with the following table:

						Percentage

				
	
					
						On or after February 2, 2019 to February 1, 2020 .........................................................................................

					
					
						 

					
					
						102.000%

				
	
					
						On or after February 2, 2020 to February 1, 2021 .........................................................................................

						On or after February 2, 2022 .........................................................................................................................

					
					
						 

					
					
						100.150%

				

			
	
			
				 (b)
			Section 4.01(a) is amended by adding the following sentence at the end:  “Any payment of the Notes at maturity (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any optional redemption pursuant to Section 3.07(b)) shall be accompanied by a fee to the Holders, earned in full on the date of this Amendment, of 0.15% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repaid, payable on the date of repayment.”

			
	
			
				 (c)
			Section 4.41 of the Indenture is amended by deleting the requirement that the Company comply with the Total Leverage Ratio of 6.00:1.00 as of the last day of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020. 

			
	
			
				 3.
			Acknowledgement and Waiver.  Subject to the terms of this Amendment, the Trustee and Consenting Noteholders hereby agree that:

			
	
			
				 (a)

The Qualification does not, by itself, constitute a Default under Section 4.03(a)(1) of the Indenture, and the Trustee and Consenting Noteholders waive any potential non-compliance with Section 4.03(a)(1) as a result of the Qualification.  For the avoidance of doubt, this waiver does not extend to the inclusion of the Qualification or any similar language in any audit report or audit opinion in any future financial statements or filings of the Company; and 

			
	
			
				 (b)
			the noncompliance with the timetables for pledging the Fuller Lot pursuant to Section 4.18(b) of the Indenture does not, by itself, constitute a Default under Section 4.18(b) of the Indenture, and the Trustee and Consenting Noteholders waive any potential non-compliance with Section 4.18(b) as a result of the failure to satisfy such requirements within the time periods set forth therein; provided, that such waiver shall expire if the Fuller Lot is not pledged as New Collateral within sixty (60) days of the date hereof.  

			
	
			
				 4.
			Ratification.  Except as specifically modified hereby, the Indenture, the Bond Documents, and the Collateral Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed. 

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			
	
			
				 5.
			Conditions Precedent. This Amendment shall be effective upon the execution and delivery of this Amendment by all parties hereto, together with all of the following:

			
	
			
				 (a)
			With respect to each beneficial owner on whose behalf Cede & Co. has executed a Consent of Noteholder consenting to this Amendment, the Company shall have paid directly to such beneficial owner a consent fee in an amount equal to 0.35% of the face amount of Notes held by such Holder. 

			
	
			
				 (b)
			No Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date hereof (except as waived pursuant to the terms of this Amendment), or would exist after giving effect to this Amendment.

			
	
			
				 (c)
			The Consenting Noteholders shall have directed Cede & Co. to execute a Consent of Noteholder consenting to this Amendment, and Cede & Co. shall have executed such consents on behalf of the Holders. 

		
			
The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Officers’ Certificate of the Company that all conditions precedent have been satisfied, and shall have no duty to verify the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions.
		

			
	
			
				 6.
			Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, by electronic or other means, each of which will be deemed to be an original and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

			
	
			
				 7.
			Governing Law.  This Amendment shall be governed exclusively by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.  Each of the Company and Trustee hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Amendment, the Indenture, the Notes, or the transactions contemplated hereby.

			
	
			
				 8.
			The Trustee.  The recitals contained herein, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.

			RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT NOTICE

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			EXHIBIT A
		

		
			RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
		

		
			This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Grant Notice to which this Agreement is attached (the “Date of Grant”) by and between Antero Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [___________] (“Employee”).Capitalized terms used but not specifically defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan or the Grant Notice.
		

		
			1.         Award.  In consideration of Employee’s past and/or continued employment with, or service to, the Company or a Subsidiary and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, effective as of the Date of Grant, the Company hereby grants to Employee the number of RSUs set forth in the Grant Notice on the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement.  In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control.  To the extent vested, each RSU represents the right to receive one share of Stock (“Common Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan.  Unless and until the RSUs have become vested in the manner set forth in the Grant Notice, Employee will have no right to receive any Common Stock or other payments in respect of the RSUs.  Prior to settlement of this Award, the RSUs and this Award represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable only from the general assets of the Company.
		

		
			2.         Vesting of RSUs.  The RSUs shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice.  Unless and until the RSUs have vested in accordance with such vesting schedule, Employee will have no right to receive any dividends or other distribution with respect to the RSUs. In the event of the termination of Employee’s employment prior to the vesting of all of the RSUs (but after giving effect to any accelerated vesting pursuant to the Grant Notice), any unvested RSUs (and all rights arising from such RSUs and from being a holder thereof) will terminate automatically without any further action by the Company and will be forfeited without further notice and at no cost to the Company.
		

		
			3.         Settlement of RSUs.  As soon as administratively practicable following the vesting of RSUs pursuant to Section 2, but in no event later than 30 days after such vesting date, the Company shall deliver to Employee (or Employee’s permitted transferee, if applicable) a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of RSUs subject to this Award that become vested on the applicable vesting date and cash equal to any DERs credited with respect to such vested RSUs or, at the discretion of the Committee, shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to such DERs as of the applicable vesting date. Any fractional RSU that becomes vested hereunder shall be rounded down at the time shares of Common Stock are issued in settlement of such RSU.  No fractional shares of Common Stock, nor the cash value of any fractional shares of Common Stock, will be issuable or payable to Employee pursuant to this Agreement.  All shares of Common Stock issued hereunder shall be delivered either by delivering one or more certificates for such shares to Employee or by entering such shares in book-entry form, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  The value of shares of Common Stock shall not bear any interest owing to the passage of time.  Neither this Section 3
		

		
			 
		

		
			

		 

		

			Exhibit A-1

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			nor any action taken pursuant to or in accordance with this Agreement shall be construed to create a trust or a funded or secured obligation of any kind.
		

		
			4.         Dividend Equivalent Rights.  Each RSU subject to this Award is hereby granted in tandem with a corresponding Dividend Equivalent (“DER”), which DER shall remain outstanding from the Date of Grant until the earlier of the settlement or forfeiture of the RSU to which it corresponds. Each vested DER shall entitle Employee to receive payments, subject to and in accordance with this Agreement, in an amount equal to any dividends paid by the Company in respect of the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs to which such DER relates. The Company shall establish, with respect to each RSU, a separate DER bookkeeping account for such RSU (a “DER Account”), which shall be credited (without interest) on the applicable dividend payment dates with an amount equal to any dividends paid during the period that such RSU remains outstanding with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSU to which such DER relates. Upon the vesting of an RSU, the DER (and the DER Account) with respect to such vested RSU shall also become vested. Similarly, upon the forfeiture of an RSU, the DER (and the DER Account) with respect to such forfeited RSU shall also be forfeited. DERs shall not entitle Employee to any payments relating to dividends paid after the earlier to occur of the applicable RSU settlement date or the forfeiture of the RSU underlying such DER.
		

		
			5.         Rights as Stockholder.  Neither Employee nor any person claiming under or through Employee shall have any of the rights or privileges of a holder of shares of Common Stock in respect of any shares that may become deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such shares have been issued or recorded in book entry form on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered in certificate or book entry form to Employee or any person claiming under or through Employee.
		

		
			6.         Tax Withholding.  Upon any taxable event arising in connection with the RSUs, the Company shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold (or cause one of its Affiliates to deduct or withhold), or to require Employee to remit to the Company (or one of its Affiliates), an amount sufficient to satisfy all applicable federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such event.  In satisfaction of the foregoing requirement, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Company or one of its Affiliates shall withhold, or cause to be surrendered, from any cash or equity remuneration (including any of the shares of Common Stock that may be issuable under this Agreement) then or thereafter payable to Employee an amount equal to the aggregate amount of taxes required to be withheld with respect to such event.  The amount of such withholding shall be limited to the aggregate amount of taxes required to be withheld based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such taxable income; provided, however, that such withholding may be based on rates in excess of the minimum statutory withholding rates if (x) the Committee (i) determines that such withholding would not result in adverse accounting, tax or other consequences to the Company or any of its Affiliates (other than immaterial administrative, reporting or similar consequences) and (ii) authorizes such withholding at such greater rates and (y) Employee consents to such withholding at such greater rates.  Employee acknowledges and agrees that none of the Board, the Committee, the Company or any of its Affiliates have made any representation or warranty as to the tax consequences to Employee as a result of the receipt of the RSUs, the vesting of the RSUs or the forfeiture of any of the RSUs.  Employee represents that he is in no manner relying on the
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			Exhibit A-2

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			Board, the Committee, the Company or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective managers, directors, officers, employees or authorized representatives (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers, lenders, prospective lenders and financial representatives) for tax advice or an assessment of such tax consequences.  Employee represents that he has consulted with any tax consultants that Employee deems advisable in connection with the RSUs.
		

		
			7.         Non-Transferability.  During the lifetime of Employee, the RSUs may not be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, unless and until the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such shares have lapsed.  Neither the RSUs nor any interest or right therein shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of Employee or his or her successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by the preceding sentence.
		

		
			8.         Compliance with Securities Law.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the issuance of shares of Common Stock hereunder will be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of applicable law with respect to such securities and with the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Common Stock may then be listed.  No shares of Common Stock will be issued hereunder if such issuance would constitute a violation of any applicable law or regulation or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Common Stock may then be listed.  In addition, shares of Common Stock will not be issued hereunder unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act is in effect at the time of such issuance with respect to the shares to be issued or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares to be issued are permitted to be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.  The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of any shares of Common Stock hereunder will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority has not been obtained.  As a condition to any issuance of Common Stock hereunder, the Company may require Employee to satisfy any requirements that may be necessary or appropriate to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect to such compliance as may be requested by the Company.
		

		
			9.         Legends.  If a stock certificate is issued with respect to shares of Common Stock delivered hereunder, such certificate shall bear such legend or legends as the Committee deems appropriate in order to reflect the restrictions set forth in this Agreement and to ensure compliance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any applicable laws or the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed.  If the shares of
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			Exhibit A-3

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			Common Stock issued hereunder are held in book-entry form, then such entry will reflect that the shares are subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement.
		

		
			10.       Execution of Receipts and Releases.  Any payment of cash or any issuance or transfer of shares of Common Stock or other property to Employee or Employee’s legal representative, heir, legatee or distributee, in accordance with this Agreement shall be in full satisfaction of all claims of such person hereunder.  As a condition precedent to such payment or issuance, the Company may require Employee or Employee’s legal representative, heir, legatee or distributee to execute a release and receipt therefor in such form as it shall determine appropriate; provided, however, that any review period under such release will not modify the date of settlement with respect to vested RSUs.
		

		
			11.       No Right to Continued Employment or Awards.
		

		
			(a)        For purposes of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered to be employed by the Company as long as Employee remains an Employee, or an employee of a corporation or other entity (or a parent or subsidiary of such corporation or other entity) assuming or substituting a new award for this Award.  Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, it is specifically provided that Employee shall be considered to have terminated employment with the Company at the time of the termination of the “Affiliate” status of the entity or other organization that employs Employee.  Nothing in the adoption of the Plan, nor the award of the RSUs thereunder pursuant to the Grant Notice and this Agreement, shall confer upon Employee the right to continued employment by, or a continued service relationship with, the Company or any such Affiliate, or any other entity, or affect in any way the right of the Company or any such Affiliate, or any other entity to terminate such employment at any time.  Unless otherwise provided in a written employment agreement or by applicable law, Employee’s employment by the Company, or any such Affiliate, or any other entity shall be on an at-will basis, and the employment relationship may be terminated at any time by either Employee or the Company, or any such Affiliate, or other entity for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause or notice.  Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be determined by the Committee or its delegate, and such determination shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.
		

		
			(b)        The grant of the RSUs is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive a grant of Awards or benefits in lieu of Awards in the future. Future plans will be at the sole discretion of the Company.
		

		
			12.       Notices.  Any notices or other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing.  In the case of Employee, such notices or communications shall be effectively delivered if hand delivered to Employee at Employee’s principal place of employment or if sent by registered or certified mail to Employee at the last address Employee has filed with the Company.  In the case of the Company, such notices or communications shall be effectively delivered if sent by registered or certified mail to the Company at its principal executive offices.
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			Exhibit A-4

		

		

			 

		

		

		
			13.       Agreement to Furnish Information.  Employee agrees to furnish to the Company all information requested by the Company to enable it to comply with any reporting or other requirement imposed upon the Company by or under any applicable statute or regulation.
		

		
			14.       Entire Agreement; Amendment.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof, and contains all the covenants, promises, representations, warranties and agreements between the parties with respect to the RSUs granted hereby; provided ̧ however, that the terms of this Agreement shall not modify and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of any employment and/or severance agreement between the Company (or an Affiliate or other entity) and Employee in effect as of the date a determination is to be made under this Agreement.  Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, except as provided therein, all prior understandings and agreements, if any, among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof are hereby null and void and of no further force and effect.  The Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend this Agreement from time to time in any manner that is not inconsistent with the Plan; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Agreement, any such amendment that materially reduces the rights of Employee shall be effective only if it is in writing and signed by both Employee and an authorized officer of the Company.
		

		
			15.       Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflicts of law principles thereof.
		

		
			16.       Successors and Assigns.  The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement without Employee’s consent.

			20.       Code Section 409A. None of the RSUs, DERs or any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement are intended to constitute or provide for a deferral of compensation that is subject to Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”). Nevertheless, to the extent that the Committee determines that the RSUs or DERs may not be exempt from Section 409A, then, if Employee is deemed to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Committee, at a time when Employee becomes eligible for settlement of the RSUs upon his “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, then to the extent necessary to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, such settlement will be delayed until the earlier of: (a) the date that is six months following Employee’s separation from service and (b) Employee’s death.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payments provided under this Agreement are exempt from or compliant with Section 409A and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by Employee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A.
