same may be modified and/or assigned to Employee by Employer from time to time; provided, however, that no change in Employee’s duties shall be permitted if it would result in a material reduction in the level of Employee’s duties as in
effect prior to the change, it being understood, however, that a change in Employee’s reporting responsibilities is not, itself, a basis for finding a material reduction in the level of duties. 

As of the Effective Date, this Agreement supersedes and replaces any and all prior employment agreements (including, but not limited to, the Prior
Agreement), change in control agreements and severance plans or agreements, whether written or oral, by and between Employee, on the one side, and Employer or any of Employer’s Affiliates, on the other side, or under which Employee is a

Officer for Employer or such similar duties as may be assigned to Employee by Employer as Employer may determine. Employee’s duties shall include, but not be limited to: (i) the efficient and continuous operation of Employer and its
Affiliates; (ii) the preparation of relevant budgets and allocation or relevant funds; (iii) the selection and delegation of duties and responsibilities of subordinates; (iv) the direction, review and oversight of all programs under
Employee’s supervision; and (v) such other and further duties as may be assigned by Employer to Employee from time to time. The foregoing notwithstanding, Employee shall devote such time to Employer or its Affiliates as may be required by
Employer, provided such duties are not inconsistent with Employee’s primary duties to Employer hereunder.

 4. ACCEPTANCE OF EMPLOYMENT. Employee hereby unconditionally accepts
the employment set forth hereunder, under the terms and pursuant to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Employee hereby covenants and agrees that, during the Term, Employee will devote the whole of Employee’s normal and customary
working time and best efforts solely to the performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement and that, except upon Employer’s prior express written authorization to that effect, Employee shall not perform any services for any casino,
hotel/casino or other similar gaming or gambling operation not owned by Employer or any of Employer’s Affiliates. 

5. TERM. Unless sooner terminated as provided in this Agreement, the term of this Agreement (the
“Term”) shall consist of three years commencing on the Effective Date of this Agreement and terminating on the third Anniversary of the Effective Date at which time the terms of this Agreement shall expire and shall not apply to any
continued employment of Employee by Employer, except for those obligations under Paragraphs 9 and 10. Following the Term, unless the parties enter into a new written contract of employment, (a) any continued employment of Employee shall be
at-will, (b) any or all of the other terms and conditions of Employee’s employment may be changed by Employer at its discretion, with or without notice, and (c) the employment relationship may be terminated at any time by either
party, with or without cause or notice. 
 Concurrent with Employee’s resignation from Employer or upon the termination of Employee’s
employment with Employer, Employee agrees to resign, and shall be deemed to have resigned, all other positions (including but not limited to board of director memberships) that Employee may have held immediately prior to Employee’s resignation
or termination. 
 6. SPECIAL TERMINATION PROVISIONS. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 5, this Agreement shall terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (a) the
death of Employee; 
 (b) the giving of written notice from Employer to Employee of the termination of this
Agreement upon the Complete Disability of Employee; 
 (c) the giving of written notice by Employer to Employee
of the termination of this Agreement upon the discharge of Employee for Cause (Employer’s right to terminate for Cause (as defined in Section 1(c) shall survive the expiration of this Agreement); 

(d) the giving of written notice by Employer to Employee of the termination of this Agreement following a disapproval of
this Agreement or the denial, suspension, limitation or revocation of Employee’s License (as defined in Subsection 8(b) of this Agreement); 
 (e) the giving of written notice by Employee to Employer upon a material breach of this Agreement by Employer, which material breach remains uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after the giving
of such notice. “Material breach” under this Section 6(e) shall not be construed to include temporary suspension of the Employee from duty, pursuant to Employer’s policy, pending investigation by Employer of any incident or
occurrence that could give rise to discipline or termination of employment; or 
 (f) the giving of written two
week notice by Employer to Employee of Employer’s intention to terminate this Agreement Without Cause for any reason deemed sufficient by Employer at the end of such two week period. During such two week notice period, Employer shall be
permitted to reduce Employee’s responsibilities and time commitment to Employer; provided however, Employer may not reduce Employee’s salary or benefits during such two-week period. At the end of such two week period, Employee shall cease
to be an employee of the Employer and this Agreement shall automatically terminate. Upon receipt of such notice, Employee shall have the option to resign Employee’s employment effective as of the date of the notice, rather than remain employed
through such two week period. If Employee elects to resign in lieu of termination, Employee must exercise this option in writing within 72 hours of receipt of the Employer’s notice of intention to terminate the Agreement Without Cause.
Employee’s written resignation in lieu of termination must be transmitted to Employer by email or hand delivery. In the event Employee 

  
 4 








 
elects to resign pursuant to this Section 6(f), Employer’s sole liability to Employee shall be continued payment of Employee’s Base Salary for 12 months from the effective date of
resignation calculated at the rate in force on the effective date of termination, and paid according to the usual payroll schedule in force for all employees of Employer less deductions of all applicable taxes and withholdings. 

In the event of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Subsection 6(a), (b), (c), or (d), Employer shall not be required to
make any payments to Employee other than payment of Base Salary and vacation pay accrued but unpaid and expenses incurred but not reimbursed through the termination date; specifically, in such event, Employee shall not be entitled to any benefits
pursuant to any severance plan in effect by Employer or any of its Affiliates. 
 It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that the decision as
to whether “Cause” exists for termination of the employment relationship by Employer is delegated to the Employer’s President. If Employee disagrees with the decision reached by Employer’s President, any dispute as to the
“Cause” determination will be limited to whether Employer’s President reached his/her decision in good faith, based upon facts reasonably believed by Employer’s President to be true, and not for any arbitrary, capricious or
illegal reason,. This shall be the standard applied by any fact finder, and Employee shall bear the burden to prove that “Cause,” under this standard, did not exist. 
 7. COMPENSATION TO EMPLOYEE. For and in complete consideration of Employee’s full and faithful performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement, Employer hereby
covenants and agrees to pay to Employee, and Employee hereby covenants and agrees to accept from Employer, the following items of compensation:

or life insurance plan, medical and/or hospitalization plan, and any other benefit plan which may be placed in effect by Employer or any of its Affiliates and generally available to Employer’s employees during the Term. All issues as to
eligibility for specific benefits and payment of benefits shall be as set forth in the applicable insurance policies or plan documents. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit Employer’s or any of its Affiliates’ ability to exercise the
discretion provided to it under any employee benefit plan, or to adopt, amend or terminate any benefit plan at any time. 
 (d) Expense Reimbursement. During the Term and provided the same are authorized in advance by Employer, Employer shall either pay directly or reimburse Employee for Employee’s
reasonable expenses incurred for the benefit of Employer in accordance with Employer’s general policy regarding expense reimbursement, as the same may be modified from time to time. Prior to such payment or reimbursement, Employee shall provide

to the approval of one or more gaming regulatory authorities (the “Authorities”) pursuant to the provisions of the relevant gaming regulatory statutes (the “Gaming Acts”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder
(the “Gaming Regulations”). Employer and Employee hereby covenant and agree to use their best efforts to obtain any and all approvals required by the Gaming Acts and/or Gaming Regulations. In the event that (i) an approval of
this Agreement or Employee’s employment by the Authorities is required for Employee to carry out Employee’s duties and responsibilities set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, (ii) Employer and Employee have used their best
efforts to obtain such approval, and (iii) this Agreement or employee’s employment is not so approved by the Authorities, then this Agreement shall immediately terminate and shall be null and void, thus extinguishing any and all
obligations of Employer.

Employee to discharge the duties required under this Agreement, Employee must apply for or hold a license, registration, permit or other approval (the “License”) as issued by the Authorities pursuant to the terms of the relevant
Gaming Act and as otherwise required by this Agreement. In the event Employee fails to apply for and secure, or the Authorities refuse to issue or renew Employee’s License, Employee, at Employer’s sole cost and expense, shall promptly
defend such action and shall take such reasonable steps as may be required to either remove the objections or secure or reinstate the Authorities’ approval, respectively. The foregoing notwithstanding, if the source of the objections or the
Authorities’ refusal to renew or maintain Employee’s License arise as a result of any of the events described in Subsection 1(c) of this Agreement, then Employer’s obligations under this Section 8 also shall not be operative
and Employee shall promptly reimburse Employer upon demand for any expenses incurred by Employer pursuant to this Section 8. 
 (c) Employer and Employee hereby covenant and agree that the provisions of this Section 8 shall apply in the event Employee’s duties require that Employee also be licensed by governmental
agencies other than the Authorities. 
 9. CONFIDENTIALITY. 

(a) Employee hereby warrants, covenants and agrees that Employee shall not directly or indirectly use or disclose any
Confidential Information, Trade Secrets, or Works of Authorship, whether in written, verbal, electronic, or model form, at any time or in any manner, except as required in the conduct of Employer’s business or as expressly authorized by
Employer in writing. Employee shall take all necessary and available 

  
 6 








 
precautions to protect against the unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information, Trade Secrets, or Works of Authorship. Employee acknowledges and agrees that such Confidential Information,
Trade Secrets, or Works of Authorship are the sole and exclusive property of Employer or its Affiliate. 
 (b)
Employee shall not remove from Employer’s premises any Confidential Information, Trade Secrets, Works of Authorship, or any other documents pertaining to Employer’s or its Affiliate’s business, unless expressly authorized by Employer
in writing. Furthermore, Employee specifically covenants and agrees not to make any duplicates, copies, or reconstructions of such materials and that, if any such duplicates, copies, or reconstructions are made, they shall become the property of
Employer or its Affiliate upon their creation. 
 (c) Upon termination of Employee’s employment with
Employer for any reason, Employee shall turn over to Employer the originals and all copies of any and all papers, documents and things, including information stored for use in or with computers and software, all files, Rolodex cards, phone books,
notes, price lists, customer contracts, bids, customer lists, notebooks, books, memoranda, drawings, computer disks or drives, or other documents: (i) made, compiled by, or delivered to Employee concerning any customer served by Employer or its
Affiliate or any product, apparatus, or process manufactured, used, developed or investigated by Employer; (ii) containing any Confidential Information, Trade Secret or Work of Authorship; or (iii) otherwise relating to Employee’s
performance of duties under this Agreement. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that all such documents are the sole and exclusive property of Employer or its Affiliate. 

(d) Employee hereby warrants, covenants and agrees that Employee shall not disclose to Employer, or any Affiliate,
officer, director, employee or agent of Employer, any proprietary or confidential information or property, including but not limited to any trade secret, formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process, which Employee is
prohibited by contract, or otherwise, to disclose to Employer (the “Restricted Information”). In the event Employer requests Restricted Information from Employee, Employee shall advise Employer that the information requested is Restricted
Information and may not be disclosed by Employee. 
 (e) The obligations of this Section 9 are continuing
and shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer for any reason. 
 10. RESTRICTIVE
COVENANT/NO SOLICITATION. 
 (a) Employee hereby covenants and agrees that during the Term, or for
such period as Employer continues to employ or compensate Employee (including, but not limited to payments made pursuant to Section 6(f)), whichever is longer, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, either as a principal, agent, employee,
employer, consultant, partner, member of a limited liability company, shareholder of a closely held corporation, or shareholder in excess of two percent (2%) of a publicly traded corporation, corporate officer or director, manager, or in any
other individual or representative capacity, engage or otherwise participate in any manner or fashion in any business that is in competition in any manner whatsoever with the principal business activity of Employer or its Affiliates, in or about any
market in which Employer or its Affiliates currently operate or have announced, publicly or otherwise, a plan to have hotel or gaming operations. 
 (b) Employee hereby further covenants and agrees that, during the Term and for a period of one (1) year following the expiration of the Term, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or
attempt to solicit for employment any management level employee of Employer or its Affiliates with or on behalf of any business that is in competition in any manner whatsoever with the principal business activity of Employer or its Affiliates, in or
about any market in which Employer or its Affiliates operate have publicly announced, publicly or otherwise, a plan to have hotel or gaming operations. 
 (c) Employee hereby further covenants and agrees that the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 10 are reasonable as to duration, terms and geographical area and that they protect the
legitimate interests of Employer, impose no undue hardship on Employee, and are not injurious to the public. In the 

  
 7 








 
event that any of the restrictions and limitations contained in this Section 10 are deemed to exceed the time, geographic or other limitations permitted by Nevada law, the parties agree that
a court of competent jurisdiction shall revise any offending provisions so as to bring this Section 10 within the maximum time, geographical or other limitations permitted by Nevada law. 

11. REMEDIES. Employee acknowledges that Employer has and will continue to deliver, provide and expose Employee to
certain knowledge, information, practices, and procedures possessed or developed by or for Employer at a considerable investment of time and expense, which are protected as confidential and which are essential for carrying out Employer’s
business in a highly competitive market. Employee also acknowledges that Employee will be exposed to Confidential Information, Trade Secrets, Works of Authorship, inventions and business relationships possessed or developed by or for Employer or its
Affiliates, and that Employer or its Affiliates would be irreparably harmed if Employee were to improperly use or disclose such items to competitors, potential competitors or other parties. Employee further acknowledges that the protection of
Employer’s and its Affiliates’ customers and businesses is essential, and understands and agrees that Employer’s and its Affiliates’ relationships with its customers and its employees are special and unique and have required a
considerable investment of time and funds to develop, and that any loss of or damage to any such relationship will result in irreparable harm. Consequently, Employee covenants and agrees that any violation by Employee of Section 9 or 10 shall
entitle Employer to immediate injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction. Employee further agrees that no cause of action for recovery of materials or for breach of any of Employee’s representations, warranties or covenants shall
accrue until Employer or its Affiliate has actual notice of such breach. 
 12. BEST EVIDENCE. This
Agreement shall be executed in original and “Xerox” or photostatic copies and each copy bearing original signatures in ink shall be deemed an original.

14. ASSIGNMENT. Employee shall not assign this Agreement or delegate Employee’s duties hereunder without the
express written prior consent of Employer thereto. Any purported assignment by Employee in violation of this Section 14 shall be null and void and of no force or effect. Employer shall have the right to assign this Agreement freely, including
without limitation Employee’s obligations under Section 10, and Employee hereby acknowledges receipt of consideration in exchange for Employee’s consent to the assignability of Employee’s obligations under Section 10 that is
additional to and separate from the consideration provided to Employee exchange for the other covenants in this Agreement.

 21. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Except for a claim by either Employee or Employer for injunctive relief where such would be otherwise authorized by law to enforce Sections 9, 10 and/or 11 of
this Agreement, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the breach hereof, or Employee’s employment by Employer, including without limitation any claim involving the interpretation or application of this
Agreement, or claims for wrongful termination, discrimination, or other claims based upon statutory or common law, shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the employment arbitration rules then in effect of the American
Arbitration (“AAA”), to the extent not inconsistent with this Section as set forth below. This Section 21 applies to any claim Employee might have against any officer, director, employee, or agent of Employer or its Affiliate, and all
successors and assigns of any of them. These arbitration provisions shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer and the expiration of the Agreement. 

(a) Coverage of Arbitration Agreement: The promises by Employer and Employee to arbitrate differences, rather than
litigate them before courts or other bodies, provide consideration for each other, in addition to other consideration provided under the Agreement. The parties contemplate by this Section 21 arbitration of all clams against each of them to the
fullest extent permitted by law except as specifically excluded by this Agreement. Only claims that are justiciable or arguably justiciable under applicable federal, state or local law are covered by this Section, and include, without limitation,
any and all alleged violations of any federal, state or local law whether common law, statutory, arising under regulation or ordinance, or any other law, brought by any current or former employee. Such claims may include, but are not limited to,
claims for: wages or other compensation; breach of contract; torts; work-related injury claims not covered under workers’ compensation laws; wrongful discharge; and any and all unlawful employment discrimination and/or harassment claims. This
Section 21 excludes claims under state workers’ compensation or unemployment compensation statutes; claims pertaining to any of Employer’s employee welfare, insurance, benefit, and pension plans, with respect to which are applicable
the filing and appeal procedures of such plans shall apply to any denial of benefits; and claims for injunctive or equitable relief for violations of non-competition and/or confidentiality agreements in Sections 9, 10 and 11. 

(b) Waiver of Rights to Pursue Claims in Court and to Jury Trial: This Section 21 does not in any manner waive any
rights or remedies available under applicable statutes or common law, but does waive Employer’s and Employee’s rights to pursue those rights and remedies in a judicial forum and waive any right to trial by jury of any claims covered by
this Section 21(a). By signing this Agreement, the parties voluntarily agree to arbitrate any covered claims against each other. In the event of any administrative or judicial action by any agency or third party to adjudicate, on behalf of
Employee, a claim subject to arbitration, Employee hereby waives the right to participate in any monetary or other recovery obtained by such agency or third party in any such action, and Employee’s sole remedy with respect to any such claim
will be any award decreed by an arbitrator pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

 (c) Initiation of Arbitration: To commence arbitration of a claim subject to
this Section 21, the aggrieved party must, within the time frame provided in Section 21(d) below, make written demand for arbitration and provide written notice of that demand to the other party. If a claim is brought by Employee against
Employer, such notice shall be given to Employer’s Legal Department. Such written notice must identify and describe the nature of the claim, the supporting facts, and the relief or remedy sought. In the event that either party files an action
in any court to pursue any of the claims covered by this Section 21, the complaint, petition or other initial pleading commencing such court action shall be considered the demand for arbitration. In such event, the other party may move that
court to compel arbitration. 
 (d) Time Limit to Initiate Arbitration: To ensure timely resolution of disputes,
Employee and Employer must initiate arbitration within the statute of limitations (deadline for filing) provided by applicable law pertaining to the claim, or one year, whichever is shorter, except that the statute of limitations imposed by relevant
law will solely apply in circumstances where such statute of limitations cannot legally be shortened by private agreement. The failure to initiate arbitration within this time limit will bar any such claim. The parties understand that Employer and
Employee are waiving any longer statutes of limitations that would otherwise apply, and any aggrieved party is encouraged to give written notice of any claim as soon as possible after the event(s) in dispute so that arbitration of any differences
may take place promptly. 
 (e) Arbitrator Selection: The parties contemplate that, except as specifically set
forth in this Section 21, selection of one (1) arbitrator shall take place pursuant to the then-current rules of the AAA applicable to employment disputes. The arbitrator must be either a retired judge or an attorney experienced in
employment law. The parties will select one arbitrator from among a list of qualified neutral arbitrators provided by AAA. If the parties are unable to agree on the arbitrator, the parties will select an arbitrator by alternatively striking names
from a list of qualified arbitrators provided by AAA. AAA will flip a coin to determine which party has the final strike (that is, when the list has been narrowed by striking to two arbitrators). The remaining named arbitrator will be selected.

 (f) Arbitration Rights and Procedures: Employee may be represented by an attorney of his/her choice at his/her
own expense. Any arbitration hearing or proceeding will take place in private, not open to the public, in Clark County, Nevada. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of Nevada (without regard to its
choice of law provisions) and/or federal law when applicable. The arbitrator is without power or jurisdiction to apply any different substantive law or law of remedies or to modify any term or condition of this Agreement. The arbitrator will have no
power or authority to award non-economic damages or punitive damages except where such relief is specifically authorized by an applicable federal, state or local statute or ordinance, or common law. In such a situation, the arbitrator shall specify
in the award the specific statute or other basis under which such relief is granted. The applicable law with respect to privilege, including attorney-client privilege, work product, and offers to compromise must be followed. The parties will have
the right to conduct reasonable discovery, including written and oral (deposition) discovery and to subpoena and/or request copies of records, documents and other relevant discoverable information consistent with the procedural rules of AAA. The
arbitrator will decide disputes regarding the scope of discovery and will have authority to regulate the conduct of any hearing. The arbitrator will have the right to entertain a motion or request to dismiss, for summary judgment, or for other
summary disposition. The parties will exchange witness lists at least 30 days prior to the hearing. The arbitrator will have subpoena power so that either Employee or Employer may summon witnesses. The arbitrator will use the Federal Rules of
Evidence in connection with the admission of all evidence at the hearing. Both parties shall have the right to file post-hearing briefs. Any party, at its own expense, may arrange for and pay the cost of a court reporter to provide a stenographic
record of the proceedings. 
 (g) Arbitrator’s Award: The arbitrator will issue a written decision
containing the specific issues raised by the parties, the specific findings of fact, and the specific conclusions of law. The award will be rendered promptly, typically within 30 days after conclusion of the arbitration hearing, or after the
submission of post-hearing briefs if requested. The arbitrator shall have no power or authority to award any relief or remedy in excess of what a court could grant under applicable law. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding on
both parties. Judgment upon an award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction.

 (h) Fees and Expenses: Unless the law requires otherwise for a particular
claim or claims, the party demanding arbitration bears the responsibility for payment of the fee to file with AAA and the fees and expenses of the arbitrator shall be allocated by the AAA under its rules and procedures. Employee and Employer shall
each pay his/her/its own expenses for presentation of their cases, including but not limited to attorney’s fees, costs, and fees for witnesses, photocopying and other preparation expenses. If any party prevails on a statutory claim that affords
the prevailing party attorney’s fees and costs, the arbitrator may award reasonable attorney’s fees and/or costs to the prevailing party, applying the same standards a court would apply under the law applicable to the claim. 

22. PAROL. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Employer and Employee, and supersedes any prior
understandings, agreements, undertakings or severance policies or plans by and between Employer or its Affiliates, on the one side, and Employee, on the other side, with respect to its subject matter or Employee’s employment with Employer or
its Affiliates. As of the Effective Date, this Agreement supersedes and replaces any and all prior employment agreements (including, but not limited to, any prior Employment Agreement), change in control agreements and severance plans or agreements,
whether written or oral, by and between Employee, on the one side, and Employer or any of Employer’s Affiliates, on the other side, or under which Employee is a participant. From and after the Effective Date, Employee shall be employed by
Employer under the terms and pursuant to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. 
 23. FCPA
COMPLIANCE. Employer advises Employee that the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) prohibits offering, providing, or promising anything of value (including money, preferential treatment, and any other sort of
advantage), either directly or indirectly, by a United States company, or any of its employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, or agents, to an official of a foreign government, a foreign political party, party official, or candidate for foreign
political office (or any family members of any of these real persons), for the purposes of influencing an act or decision in that individual’s official capacity, or inducing the official to use his or her influence with the foreign government
to assist the United States company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, or anyone else, in obtaining or retaining business. Employee understands that Employee may not directly or indirectly offer, promise, grant, or authorize the giving of money or
anything else of value to a government official to influence official action or obtain an improper advantage. Employee understands that these legal restrictions apply fully to Employee with regard to Employee’s activities in the course of or in
relation to Employee’s employment with Employer, regardless of Employee’s physical location. Employee represents and warrants that Employee will act in accordance with all applicable laws regarding anti-corruption, including the FCPA, the
U.K. Bribery Act, and all other state, federal, and international laws related to anti-corruption. Employee agrees that he or she will not take any action which would cause Employer to be in violation of the FCPA or any other applicable
anti-corruption law, regulation, or Company policy or procedure. Employee further represents and warrants that Employee will know and understand, and act in accordance with, all Company policies and procedures related to anti-corruption and business
conduct. Employee agrees to attend mandatory training compliance training. Employee undertakes to duly notify Employer if Employee becomes aware of any such violation of Company policies or procedures, or any other violation of law, committed by
Employee or any other person or entity, and to indemnify Employer for any losses, damages, fines, and/or penalties which Employer may suffer or incur arising out of or incidental to any such violation committed by Employee. 

Employee also represents and warrants that Employee will disclose to the Employer if Employee or any member of Employee’s family is an official of a
foreign government or foreign political party, or is a candidate for foreign political office. 
 In case of breach of this provision, the
Employer may suspend or terminate this Agreement at any time without notice or indemnity.
