the Participant experiences a Qualifying Termination;

(ii)
the Participant executes and delivers to the Company a General Release that

(c)         Equity Awards.  The Participant’s Equity Awards shall become fully
vested and exercisable or payable, with any performance-based vesting criteria
satisfied at the level determined by the Committee or the Compensation Committee
of the SciPlay Board, as applicable, in its sole discretion, with any restricted
stock units settled no later than the 60th day after the Participant’s
Qualifying Termination; and

(d)            Other Benefits.  If the Participant timely elects to continue
medical coverage under the Company’s group health plan in accordance with COBRA,
during the Benefits Continuation Period an amount equal to the monthly premiums

similarly-situated active employees of the Company, provided such benefit shall
cease if the Participant ceases coverage under the group health plan or obtains
coverage under a group health plan of a subsequent employer.

(e)          Additional Payment Timing Terms.  Notwithstanding the foregoing to
the contrary, the timing of any payment that constitutes a “deferral of
compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall be payable in accordance
with the timing set forth in Section 16(d).

SECTION 7. Restrictive Covenants.  As an additional condition to the payments
and benefits provided under Section 6, the Participant shall continue to be
bound by, in accordance with their terms, any non-competition, non-solicitation,
non-disparagement, confidentiality, cooperation with litigation and other
restrictive covenants to the extent applicable to such Participant at the time
of his or her Qualifying Termination.

SECTION 8. Payment Obligations Absolute.  Upon a Change in Control, the
obligations of the Company to pay or provide the severance payments and benefits
as required by the Plan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstances, including any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense or other right that the Company may have against any Participant.  In no
event shall a Participant be obligated to seek other employment or take any
other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to a Participant under
any of the provisions of the Plan, nor shall the amount of any payment or
benefit under the Plan be reduced by any compensation or benefit earned or
received by a Participant as a result of employment by another employer, other
than as provided in Section 6(d).  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a
Qualifying Termination, this Section 8 shall supersede any provision to the
contrary in any individual employment agreement between the Participant and the
Company, including if the Participant receives severance payments and benefits
pursuant to such agreement in accordance with Section 9.

SECTION 9. Other Arrangements.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, in
the case of a Participant who is party to an individual employment agreement
with the Company or is eligible to receive severance payments under any other
plan, policy or arrangement maintained by the Company, such Participant will be
entitled to receive only the greater of the aggregate severance payments and
benefits provided under (i) such other plan, policy, agreement or arrangement
and (ii) the Plan.  For the avoidance of doubt, the compensation and benefits
provided under the Plan shall not result in duplication of compensation or
benefits provided under any other plan, policy, agreement or arrangement.

SECTION 10. Section 280G.

(a)   If (x) the aggregate of all amounts and benefits due to a Participant
under the Plan or any other plan, program, agreement or arrangement of the
Company, which, if received by such Participant in full, would constitute
“parachute payments,” as such term is defined in and under Section 280G
(collectively, “Change in Control Benefits”), reduced by all Federal, state and
local taxes applicable thereto, including the excise tax imposed pursuant to
Section 4999 of the Code, is less than (y) the amount such Participant would
receive, after all such applicable taxes, if such Participant received aggregate
Change in Control Benefits equal to an amount which is $1.00 less than three (3)
times such

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Participant’s “base amount,” as defined in and determined under Section 280G,
then such Change in Control Benefits shall be reduced or eliminated to the
extent necessary so that the Change in Control Benefits received by such
Participant will not constitute “parachute payments”.  If such a reduction in
the Change in Control Benefits is necessary, reduction shall occur in the
following order: (i) severance payments pursuant to Section 6(a); (ii) other
cash payments; (iii) the Pro Rata Bonus; (iv) acceleration of vesting of stock
options with an exercise price that exceeds the then fair market value of stock
subject to the option, provided such options are not permitted to be valued
under Treasury Regulations Section 1.280G-1 Q/A – 24(c); (v) any Equity Awards
accelerated or otherwise valued at full value, provided such Equity Awards are
not permitted to be valued under Treasury Regulations Section 1.280G-1 Q/A –
24(c); (vi) acceleration of vesting of stock options with an exercise price that
exceeds the then fair market value of stock subject to the option, provided such
options are permitted to be valued under Treasury Regulations Section 1.280G-1
Q/A – 24(c); (vii) acceleration of vesting of all other Equity Awards; and
(viii) within any category, reductions shall be from the last due payment to the
first.

(b)          It is possible that after the determinations and selections made
pursuant to the preceding paragraph that the Participant will receive Change in
Control Benefits that are, in the aggregate, either more or less than the
amounts contemplated by the preceding paragraph (hereafter referred to as an
“Excess Payment” or “Underpayment,” respectively). If there is an Excess
Payment, the Participant shall promptly repay the Company an amount consistent
with this Section 10. If there is an Underpayment, the Company shall pay the
Participant an amount consistent with this Section 10.

SECTION 11. Claims. Following a Qualifying Termination, the severance payments
and benefits described in Section 6 shall be paid as described therein without
any required action on the part of such Participant, other than any actions
required by Section 5(a).  As a condition to participating in the Plan, all
disputes, controversies and claims arising between the Company and the
Participant concerning the subject matter of the Plan shall be settled in
accordance with the arbitration or other dispute resolution provisions set forth
in any individual employment agreement between the Company and the Participant,
mutatis mutandis.  If such employment agreement does not contain any such
provisions, or the Participant is not subject to an employment agreement with
the Company, then any such disputes, controversies or claims shall be settled by
arbitration with the American Arbitration Association as follows:

(a)          the location of such arbitration shall be Las Vegas, Nevada;

(b)          such arbitration shall be before three arbitrators;

(c)          such arbitration shall be in accordance with the National Rules for
the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association in
effect at the time of submission to arbitration;

(d)          the Company and the Participant agree that a judgment upon an award
rendered by the arbitrators may be enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on
the judgment or in any other manner provided by law;

(e)          the Company shall pay all costs uniquely attributable to
arbitration, including the administrative fees and costs of the arbitrators;

(f)          each party shall pay that party’s own costs and attorney fees, if
any, unless the arbitrators rule otherwise;

(g)          the arbitrators shall apply the same standards a court would apply
to award any damages, attorney fees or costs; and

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(h)          the Participant shall not be required to pay any fee or cost that
the Participant would not otherwise be required to pay in a court action, unless
so ordered by the arbitrators.

Nothing in this Section 11 shall preclude the Participant or the Company from
seeking temporary injunctive relief from any Federal or state court in
connection with or as a supplement to an arbitration hereunder.

SECTION 12. Amendments and Terminations. The Plan Administrator shall have
authority to amend, modify or terminate the Plan in such respects as it shall
deem advisable; provided that, the Plan shall not be amended, modified or
terminated during the Term, including, for the avoidance of doubt, to revoke the
designation of an individual as a Participant; provided further, that the Plan
shall not be amended, modified or terminated with respect to any Participant for
whom an event constituting Good Reason has occurred during the Term until the
applicable Good Reason End Date.

SECTION 13. Withholding Taxes; No Guarantee of Tax Consequences.  The Company is
authorized to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the
Company, any amount required to satisfy any taxes imposed on payments or
benefits provided to the Participant pursuant to the Plan which are considered
taxable compensation to the Participant.  No representation, commitment or
guarantee is made that any amounts paid under the Plan will be excludable from
the recipient’s gross income for any tax purpose, or that any other tax
treatment will apply or be available to such Person.

SECTION 14. Successors; Binding Agreement.  (a)  The Plan shall bind any
successor of the Company, its assets or its businesses (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise), in the same manner
and to the same extent that the Company would be obligated under the Plan if no
succession had taken place.  In the case of any transaction in which a successor
would not by the foregoing provision or by operation of law be bound by the
Plan, the Company, as a condition precedent to such transaction, shall require
such successor expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the
Company’s obligations under the Plan, in the same manner and to the same extent
that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken
place.

(b)          As used in the Plan, “Company” shall mean the Company as
hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as
aforesaid which executes and delivers the agreement described in this Section 14
or which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and provisions of the Plan by
operation of law.

(c)          Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or by law, no right or
interest of any Participant under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable,
in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise,
including without limitation by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge
or in any manner, no attempted assignment or transfer thereof shall be effective
and no right or interest of any Participant under the Plan shall be liable for,
or subject to, any obligation or liability of such Participant.

(d)          The Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by a
Participant’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators,
successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.  If a Participant should
die while any amounts would still be payable to him or her hereunder if he or
she had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein,
shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the Plan to such Participant’s
devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there be no such designee, to his or
her estate.

SECTION 15. Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State
of Nevada, to the extent not preempted by U.S. Federal law.

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SECTION 16. Section 409A.

(a)  It is intended that the severance payments and benefits provided under the
Plan shall be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A. 
The Plan shall be construed, administered and governed in a manner that effects
such intent, and the Company shall not take any action that would be
inconsistent with such intent.  Specifically, any taxable benefits or payments
provided under the Plan are intended to be separate payments that qualify for
the “short-term deferral” exception to Section 409A to the maximum extent
possible, and to the extent they do not so qualify, are intended to qualify for
the separation pay exceptions to Section 409A, to the maximum extent possible. 
To the extent that none of these exceptions (or any other available exception)
applies, then notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and to
the extent required to comply with Section 409A, if a Participant is a
“specified employee,” as determined under the Company’s policy for identifying
specified employees on his or her date of termination, then all amounts due
under the Plan that constitute a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning
of Section 409A, that are provided as a result of a “separation from service”
within the meaning of Section 409A, and that would otherwise be paid or provided
during the first six months following the Participant’s separation from service,
shall be accumulated through and paid or provided on the first payroll date that
is more than six months after the date of the Participant’s separation from
service (or, if the Participant dies during such six-month period, within 30
calendar days after the Participant’s death).

(b)          A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred
for purposes of any provision of the Plan providing for the payment of any
amounts or benefits subject to Section 409A upon or following a termination of
employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within
the meaning of Section 409A and the Participant is no longer providing services
(at a level that would preclude the occurrence of a “separation from service”
within the meaning of Section 409A) to the Company as an employee or consultant,
and for purposes of any such provision of the Plan, references to a
“termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation
from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

(c)          With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement
of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A: 
(i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to
liquidation or exchange for another benefit; (ii) the amount of expenses
eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable
year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind
benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year; and (iii) such payments
shall be made on or before the last day of the Participant’s taxable year
following the taxable year in which the expense occurred, or such earlier date
as required hereunder.

(d)          Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, including the
payment timing provisions of Section 6, to the extent necessary to comply with
Section 409A, any amount payable hereunder that constitute a “deferral of
compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A will not be paid prior to the
earliest date that is permitted in accordance with the schedule set forth in any
individual employment agreement between the Company and the Participant as in
effect on the date of the Change in Control.

SECTION 17. No Right to Continued Employment.  Participation in the Plan does
not create a contract of employment between the Company and any Participant. 
The Company reserves the right to terminate the employment of any Participant at
any time for any reason, just as each Participant has the right to terminate his
or her employment at any time for any reason.

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 SECTION 18. Certain Rights.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in or about
the Plan, including Section 11, prohibits a Participant from:  (a) filing and,
as provided for under Section 21F of the Exchange Act, maintaining the
confidentiality of a claim with the SEC; (b) providing confidential information
to the SEC, or providing the SEC with information that would otherwise violate
Section 7, to the extent permitted by Section 21F of the Exchange Act; (c)
cooperating, participating or assisting in an SEC investigation or proceeding
without notifying the Company; or (d) receiving a monetary award as set forth in
Section 21F of the Exchange Act.

SECTION 19. Miscellaneous.  (a)  The headings and captions herein are provided
for reference and convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Plan and
shall not be employed in the construction of the Plan.  The words “include”,
“includes” or “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without
limitation”.

(b)          The Plan shall not be funded.  No Participant shall have any right
to, or interest in, any assets of any Company which may be applied by the
Company to the payment of benefits or other rights under this Plan.

(c)          Any notice required or permitted to be given under the Plan shall
be sufficient if in writing and if delivered personally or by certified mail to
the Participant at the Participant’s place of residence as then recorded on the
books of the Participant or to the Company at its principal office.

(d)          Except as otherwise required by law or as specifically provided in
any plan or program maintained by the Company, no payment under the Plan shall
be included or taken into account in determining any benefit under any pension,
thrift, profit sharing, group insurance or other benefit plan maintained by the
Company.

(e)          Any provision in the Plan that is prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction by reason of applicable law shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating or affecting the remaining provisions of the Plan, and any such
prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

to restitution, recoupment or setoff of any payments made to you by the Company
should this Release Agreement be found to be invalid as to the release of claims
under the ADEA.

subpoena, order or legal process and an opportunity to timely contest such
process. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Release Agreement shall
preclude you from making truthful statements that are required by applicable
law, regulation or legal process.
