c/o PokerTek

Dear Mark:

On behalf of PokerTek, Inc. (“PokerTek” or the “Company”), this will confirm the
terms of your continued employment as Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the
Company. In your capacity as CEO, you will continue to report directly to the
Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), and will continue to work at the
Company’s headquarters at 1150 Crews Road, Suite F, Matthews, NC 28105. Your
compensation package as outlined herein is subject to approval of the Board of
Directors. Upon approval by the Board of Directors, the terms set forth herein
will be retroactively effective as of January 1, 2014.

Base Salary. Your annual base salary will be $15,416.67 per month ($185,000.00
annually), less applicable taxes, deductions and withholdings, paid monthly and
subject to annual review. PokerTek’s regularly scheduled pay day is currently on
the 30th of every month.

Incentive Compensation. You will be eligible to participate in an annual
incentive bonus plan with a target incentive of up to 60% of your annual base
salary (the “Target Award”) if you achieve your targets, less applicable taxes,
deductions, and withholdings. Target incentives do not constitute a promise of
payment. To qualify for the incentive bonus, you must remain employed with the
Company through the date that the incentive bonus is paid. Your actual incentive
bonus payout will depend on PokerTek’s financial performance and, to the extent
applicable, the Compensation Committee’s assessment of your individual
performance. Incentive bonuses are usually paid in February or March of the year
after the fiscal year for which they are earned.

Retention Incentive. You will be eligible to receive a retention incentive of
$185,000.00, less applicable taxes, deductions, and withholdings, to be paid (a)
$15,417 per month for 12-months beginning January 1, 2015 as a retention bonus
for remaining with PokerTek through December 31, 2014; or (b) in the event of
the closing of a merger, sale, or purchase transaction, paid for a period of 12
months beginning at closing of the transaction if your employment is continued
at a salary not less than your current base salary; or (c) in the event of the
closing of a merger, sale, or purchase transaction if your employment is
terminated, paid immediately.

Stock Incentive Plan Awards. You will be awarded 300,000 Restricted Stock Units
on the date of approval by the Board of Directors. These RSU will fully vest in
24 months from the grant date. RSU are governed by PokerTek’s 2009 Stock
Incentive Plan (“SIP”). Any other SIP awards made prior to this employment
letter shall remain unchanged.

Benefits. Subject to meeting the various eligibility requirements, you may
continue to participate in the Company’s health insurance benefits (medical,
dental and vision), life insurance, short term and long term disability, 401(k)
Plan, and Flexible Spending Plan (Healthcare Reimbursement Account and/or
Dependent Care Reimbursement Account). Please refer to benefit plan documents
for eligibility. Of course, PokerTek may change its benefits at any time.

compliance with and approved if required by PokerTek’s Code of Ethics.

compete with the Company set forth in Section 5 of the Employee Proprietary
Information and Inventions Agreement which you entered into with the Company is
hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof and constitutes a material
inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement.

Employment At-Will. Please understand that this letter does not constitute a
contract of employment for any specific period of time, but will create an
employment at-will relationship that may be terminated at any time by you or
PokerTek, with or without cause and with or without advance notice. The at-will
nature of the employment relationship may not be modified or amended except by

both during and for five (5) years after your employment with the Company
terminates, not to knowingly disparage the Company or its officers, directors,
