On June 29, 2012, Jacobs Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) entered into an Increase Joinder to the Credit Agreement among the Registrant, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Additional Term Lender, and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as Administrative Agent.

Generally, upon the execution of the Increase Joinder to the Credit Agreement, we borrowed an additional $5,000,000 term loan under our credit facility. The additional $5,000,000, along with the $45,000,000 of term loans in place prior to the Increase Joinder to the Credit Agreement (for an aggregate total of $50,000,000 of term loans that mature December 16, 2013), will have an interest rate of 3.25% above LIBOR.

The above description of the Increase Joinder to the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.37 and is incorporated herein by reference.

See also Items 2.01 and 9.01 below incorporated herein by this reference.

On June 21, 2012, the Company entered into a Membership Interests Purchase Agreement, closed the Membership Interests Purchase Agreement on June 29, 2012 and thereby acquired 100% of the membership interests in Cash Magic Amite, LLC, a Louisiana limited liability company (“Amite”) for $5,872,065 in cash. The Company funded the purchase price with corporate funds and term loan borrowings under its bank credit facility.

Amite owns and operates a video poker truck stop in Amite, Louisiana. The Company owns and operates 21 other similar facilities in Louisiana and has a share in revenue of a 22^nd location.

Amite was acquired from Gameco Holdings, Inc. (“Gameco”), an affiliate of the Company. Amite was Gameco’s last remaining video poker truck stop. Gameco is owned and controlled by Jeffrey P. Jacobs who, directly and indirectly through family trusts, also controls the Company. Jeffrey P. Jacobs is the sole director and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

The purchase price of $5,872,065 paid by the Company for Amite was determined in accordance with the Company’s credit facilities and was calculated as 7 multiplied by the Amite EBITDA for the four quarters ended March 31, 2012.
