Dear Steve:

 

It is my pleasure to confirm our understanding regarding certain amendments to the Employment Agreement of August 8, 2005, as already amended by letter agreements dated January 17, 2006, August 30, 2007, June 17, 2008, and December 2008 (as so amended and as amended hereby, the “Employment Agreement”) between you and Scientific Games Corporation (the “Company”). Except as expressly set forth herein, the terms of the Employment Agreement shall remain in full force.

 

Section 2. The “Term” shall be extended through August 31, 2014.

Section 6(b) is amended to read as follows:

 

b)            Termination By Reason of Death.  If Executive dies during the Term, the last beneficiary designated by Executive by written notice to the Company (or, in the absence of such designation, Executive’s estate) shall be entitled only to the Standard Termination Payments (including, if applicable, any benefits that may be payable under any life insurance benefit of Executive for which the Company pays premiums, in accordance with the terms of any such benefit and subject to the right of the Company (or its applicable affiliate) to at any time amend or terminate any such benefit).
