 SECTION

 CREDIT FACILITIES 
  

	2.1	THE LINE OF CREDIT 

  

	 	2.1.1 	The Line of Credit: On terms and conditions as set forth herein, the Bank agrees to make Advances to the Borrower from time to time from the date hereof to the Expiration
Date, in an amount of up to $2,000,000.00. (the “Line of Credit”). Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may borrow, partially or wholly prepay, and reborrow under this Section 2.1. Proceeds of the Line of Credit shall be used to
refinance an existing loan with another lender and assist with general working capital needs for the Borrower’s operation. 

  

	 	2.1.2 	Making Line Advances: Each Advance shall be conclusively deemed to have been made at the request of and for the benefit of the Borrower (i) when credited to any deposit
account of the Borrower maintained with the Bank or (ii) when paid in accordance with the Borrower’s written instructions. Subject to the requirements of Section 4 and provided such request is made in a timely manner as provided in
Section 2.1.5 below, Advances shall be made by the Bank under the Line of Credit. 

  

	 	2.1.3 	Repayment: 

  

	 	(i)	If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Advances shall exceed the applicable Line of Credit, the Borrower hereby promises and agrees, immediately upon
written or telephonic notice from the Bank, to pay to the Bank an amount equal to the difference between the outstanding principal balance of the Advances and the Line of Credit. 

  

	 	(ii)	On the Expiration Date, the Borrower hereby promises and agrees to pay to the Bank in full the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Advances then outstanding, together with all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon. 

  

	 	2.1.4 	Interest on Advances: Interest shall accrue from the date of each Advance under the Line of Credit at one of the following rates, as quoted by the Bank and as elected by the
Borrower below: 

  

	 	(i)	Variable Rate Advances: A variable rate per annum equivalent to the Prime Rate minus .25% (the “Variable Rate”). Interest shall be adjusted concurrently with any
change in the Prime Rate. An Advance based upon the Variable Rate is hereinafter referred to as a “Variable Rate Advance”. 

  

	 	(ii)	 LIBOR Advances: A fixed rate quoted by the Bank for 30, 60 or 90 days or for such other period of time that the Bank may quote and offer (provided that any
such period of time does not extend beyond the Expiration Date) (the “LIBOR Interest Period”) for Advances in the minimum amount of $100,000.00. Such interest rate shall be a percentage equivalent to 2.25% in excess of the Bank’s
LIBOR Rate which is that rate determined by the Bank’s Treasury Desk as being the arithmetic mean (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest whole multiple of one-sixteenth of one percent (1/16%)) of the U.S. dollar London Interbank
Offered Rates for such period appearing on page “USD” (or such other page as may replace page “USD”) of the Bloomberg Financial Markets screen at or about 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day prior to the
first day of such period (adjusted for any and all assessments, surcharges and reserve 

  

 -4- 

	 	 
requirements) (the “LIBOR Rate”). An Advance based upon the LIBOR Rate is hereinafter referred to as a “LIBOR Advance”.

 Interest on any Advance shall be computed on the basis of 360 days per year, but charged on the actual number of days
elapsed. 
 The Borrower hereby promises and agrees to pay interest in arrears on Variable Rate Advances and LIBOR Advances on the first
calendar day of each month. 
 If interest is not paid as and when it is due, it shall be added to the principal, become and be treated as a
part thereof, and shall thereafter bear like interest. 
  

	 	2.1.5 	Notice of Borrowing: Upon written or telephonic notice which shall be received by the Bank at or before 2:00 p.m. (California time) on a Business Day, the Borrower may borrow
under the Line of Credit by requesting: 

  

	 	(i)	A Variable Rate Advance. A Variable Rate Advance may be made on the day notice is received by the Bank; provided, however, that if the Bank shall not have received notice at or
before 2:00 p.m. on the day such Advance is requested to be made, such Variable Rate Advance may, at the Bank’s option, be made on the next Business Day. 

  

	 	(ii)	A LIBOR Advance. Notice of any LIBOR Advance shall be received by the Bank no later than two Business Days prior to the day (which shall be a Business Day) on which the Borrower
requests such LIBOR Advance to be made. 

  

	 	2.1.6 	Notice of Election to Adjust Interest Rate: The Borrower may elect: 

  

	 	(i)	That interest on a Variable Rate Advance shall be adjusted to accrue at the LIBOR Rate; provided, however, that such notice shall be received by the Bank no later than two Business
Days prior to the day (which shall be a Business Day) on which the Borrower requests that interest be adjusted to accrue at the LIBOR Rate. 

  

	 	(ii)	That interest on a LIBOR Advance shall continue to accrue at a newly quoted LIBOR Rate or shall be adjusted to commence to accrue at the Variable Rate; provided, however, that such
notice shall be received by the Bank no later than two Business Days prior to the last day of the LIBOR Interest Period pertaining to such LIBOR Advance. If the Bank shall not have received notice (as prescribed herein) of the Borrower’s
election that interest on any LIBOR Advance shall continue to accrue at the newly quoted LIBOR Rate, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected that interest thereon shall be adjusted to accrue at the Variable Rate upon the expiration of the LIBOR
Interest Period pertaining to such Advance. 

  

	 	2.1.7 	Prepayment: The Borrower may prepay any Advance in whole or in part, at any time and without penalty, provided, however, that: (i) any partial prepayment shall first be
applied, at the Bank’s option, to accrued and unpaid interest and next to the outstanding principal balance; and (ii) during any period of time in which interest is accruing on any Advance on the basis of the LIBOR Rate, no prepayment
shall be made except on a day which is the last day of the LIBOR Interest Period pertaining thereto. If the whole or any part of any LIBOR Advance is prepaid by reason of acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower shall, upon the Bank’s request,
promptly pay to and indemnify the Bank for all costs, expenses and any loss (including loss of profit resulting from the re-employment of funds) deemed sustained by the Bank as a consequence of such prepayment. 

  

 -5- 

 The Bank shall be entitled to fund all or any portion of its Advances in any manner it may determine in
its sole discretion, but all calculations and transactions hereunder shall be conducted as though the Bank actually funded all Advances through the purchase of dollar deposits bearing interest at the same rate as U.S. Treasury securities in the
amount of the relevant Advance and in maturities corresponding to the date of such purchase to the Expiration Date hereunder. 
  

	 	2.1.8 	Indemnification for LIBOR Rate Costs: During any period of time in which interest on any Advance is accruing on the basis of the LIBOR Rate, the Borrower shall, upon the
Bank’s request, promptly pay to and reimburse the Bank for all costs incurred and payments made by the Bank by reason of any future assessment, reserve, deposit or similar requirement or any surcharge, tax or fee imposed upon the Bank or as a
result of the Bank’s compliance with any directive or requirement of any regulatory authority pertaining or relating to funds used by the Bank in quoting and determining the LIBOR Rate. 

  

	 	2.1.9 	Conversion from LIBOR Rate to Variable Rate: In the event that the Bank shall at any time determine that the accrual of interest on the basis of the LIBOR Rate (i) is
infeasible because the Bank is unable to determine the LIBOR Rate due to the unavailability of U.S. dollar deposits, contracts or certificates of deposit in an amount approximately equal to the amount of the relevant Advance and for a period of time
approximately equal to relevant LIBOR Interest Period or (ii) is or has become unlawful or infeasible by reason of the Bank’s compliance with any new law, rule, regulation, guideline or order, or any new interpretation of any present law,
rule, regulation, guideline or order, then the Bank shall give telephonic notice thereof (confirmed in writing) to the Borrower, in which event any Advance bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate shall be deemed to be a Variable Rate Advance and interest
shall thereupon immediately accrue at the Variable Rate. 

  

	 	2.1.10	 Commitment Fee: The Borrower agrees to pay to the Bank a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Line of Credit of .25% per annum, payable quarterly in
arrears, commencing May 04, 2005, and computed on a year of 360 days for actual days elapsed. 

  

	2.2	LETTER OF CREDIT SUB-FACILITY 

  

	 	2.2.1 	Letter of Credit Sub-Facility: The Bank agrees to issue commercial and/or standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) on behalf of the Borrower of up to
$1,000,000.00. At no time, however, shall the total principal amount of all Advances outstanding under the Line of Credit, together with the total face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding, less any partial draws paid by the Bank, exceed the
Line of Credit. 

  

	 	(i)	Upon the Bank’s request, the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Bank issuance fees and such other fees, commissions, costs and any out-of-pocket expenses charged or incurred by
the Bank with respect to any Letter of Credit. 

  

	 	(ii)	The commitment by the Bank to issue Letters of Credit shall, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, automatically terminate on the Expiration Date
of the Line of Credit and no Letter of Credit shall expire on a date which is more than 90 days after the Expiration Date. 

  

	 	(iii)	Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank and in favor of beneficiaries satisfactory to the Bank, provided that the Bank may refuse to issue a
Letter of Credit due to the nature of the transaction or its terms or in connection with any transaction where the Bank, due to the beneficiary or the nationality or residence of the beneficiary, would be prohibited by any applicable law, regulation
or order from issuing such Letter of Credit. 

  

 -6- 

	 	(iv)	Prior to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, but in no event later than 10:00 a.m. (California time) on the day such Letter of Credit is to be issued (which shall be a Business
Day), the Borrower shall deliver to the Bank a duly executed form of the Bank’s standard form of application for issuance of a Letter of Credit with proper insertions. 

  

	 	(v)	The Borrower shall, upon the Bank’s request, promptly pay to and reimburse the Bank for all costs incurred and payments made by the Bank by reason of any future assessment,
reserve, deposit or similar requirement or any surcharge, tax or fee imposed upon the Bank or as a result of the Bank’s compliance with any directive or requirement of any regulatory authority pertaining or relating to any Letter of Credit.

 In the event that the Borrower fails to pay any drawing under any Letter of Credit or the balances in the depository account
or accounts maintained by the Borrower with Bank are insufficient to pay such drawing, without limiting the rights of Bank hereunder or waiving any Event of Default caused thereby, Bank may, and Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to create an Advance
bearing interest at the rate or rates provided in Section 9.2 hereof to pay such drawing. 
  

	 	2.3	Line Account: The Bank shall maintain on its books a record of account in which the Bank shall make entries for each Advance and such other debits and credits as shall be
appropriate in connection with the credit facilities granted hereunder (the “Line Account”). The Bank shall provide the Borrower with a statement of the Borrower’s Line Account, which statement shall be considered to be correct and
conclusively binding on the Borrower unless the Borrower notifies the Bank to the contrary within 30 days after the Borrower’s receipt of any such statement which it deems to be incorrect. 

  

	 	2.4	Payments: If any payment required to be made by the Borrower hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to
the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made to the office of the Bank designated for the receipt of notices herein
or such other office as Bank shall from time to time designate. 

  

	 	2.5	Late Payment: In addition to any other rights the Bank may have hereunder, if any payment of principal or interest or any portion thereof, under this Agreement is not paid
within 5 days of when due, a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of such past due payment may be assessed and shall be immediately payable.

 Exhibit 10.1 
 AGREEMENT 
 The purpose of this Agreement (the “Agreement”) is to set forth the agreed upon terms,
conditions and arrangements regarding Timothy J. Parrott’s resignation from Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc.’s Board of Directors. Timothy J. Parrott (“Parrott”) and Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company”) may be
hereinafter referred to as “Parties.” The Parties acknowledge and agree that Mr. Parrott’s decision to resign was not related to any disagreement with the Company or its management on any matter relating to its operations,
policies or practices. 
 In consideration of the following promises, obligations and commitments, the sufficiency of which is expressly
acknowledged by the Parties, Parrott and the Company agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Parrott’s retirement from the Company’s Board of Directors was effective August 31, 2006 (“Retirement Date”). 

  

	 	2.	Parrott shall be entitled to continued coverage under the Company’s medical plan until the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months from the Retirement Date or (ii) the
date he is eligible for, or covered by, any other medical plan (the “Medical Coverage Period”). At the conclusion of the Medical Coverage Period, Parrott may elect to avail himself of his rights under COBRA, if applicable. If Parrott makes
such election, the payment of any and all COBRA premiums shall be at Parrott’s sole cost and expense. 

  

	 	3.	All Company stock options previously granted to Parrott vested on the Retirement Date. The total number of such outstanding stock options as of the Retirement Date is forty three
thousand six hundred (43,600). Parrott shall have ninety (90) days from the Retirement Date to exercise said options, except in respect of the options granted June 18, 2002 (of which three thousand six hundred (3,600) options remain
outstanding) which must be exercised within thirty (30) days from the Retirement Date. Except as provided in this Paragraph 3, all other terms and conditions of the Stock Option Plans under which the stock options were issued remain applicable
to and control the exercise of said options. Parrott shall be responsible for any and all taxes that may arise out of such exercise. All of Parrott’s deferred shares shall be handled in accordance with the Director’s Deferred Compensation
Plan. 

  

	 	4.	 In consideration of the promises set forth in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, and except for the purpose of enforcing this Agreement,
Parrott, on behalf of himself, his spouse, children and all affiliates, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, acquits, and forever discharges Company, Company’s parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, and divisions, as well as
each of their respective present and former officers, directors, employees, consultants, and agents (being collectively referred to herein as the “Releasees”), or any of them, from any and all charges, complaints, claims, liabilities,
obligations, promises, agreements, controversies, damages, actions, causes of action, suits, rights, demands, costs, losses, debts, and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs actually incurred), of any 

	 	 
nature whatsoever, known or unknown, in law or equity (collectively “Claims”), which Parrott, his spouse, children or affiliates now have, own,
hold, or claim to have, own or hold, or which Parrott, his spouse, children or affiliates, or any of them had, owned, held or claimed to own at any time before the execution of this Agreement against any or all of the Releasees.

  

	 	5.	In consideration of the covenants and agreements set forth herein, and except for the purpose of enforcing this Agreement, the Company, on behalf of its subsidiaries, affiliates and
divisions (“Releasors”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, acquits, and forever discharges Parrott from any and all charges, complaints, claims, liabilities, obligations, promises, agreements, controversies, damages,
actions, causes of action, suits, rights, demands, costs, losses, debts, and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs actually incurred), of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, in law or in equity, which Releasors, or any of them, now
have, own or hold, or claim to have, own or hold or which Releasors, or any of them had owned or held or claimed to own at any time before the execution of this Agreement, against Parrott, provided that such release shall not extend to any claim
premised on willful misconduct or fraud which the Company may discover after the date hereof. Parrott acknowledges that he has not assigned any claim or purported claim released hereby to third parties.
