      The Company hereby agrees to employ Executive, and Executive agrees to be
employed by the Company, to render services to the Company and its subsidiaries,
affiliates and divisions for the period, at the rate of compensation and upon
the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

      3. TERM.

      The term of Executive's engagement hereunder shall commence on Effective
Date, and shall continue for a term of three years (the "Term"). The Term is
subject to earlier termination as hereinafter provided in Section 8 hereof, and
the compensation, benefits, etc., if any, payable upon termination shall be as
set forth in Section 9 hereof. In the event that the term of Executive's
engagement by the Company shall continue beyond the Term, the Company and
Executive agree that any successor agreement memorializing the terms of such
engagement shall include, among its provisions (which shall be negotiated in
good faith), a non-competition provision protecting all of the Company's
material business lines.

      4. POSITION AND DUTIES.

            (a) Position. During the Term, Executive shall be retained and shall
serve as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. During the Term,
Executive also agrees to serve, if elected, as a director and/or officer of any
subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company.

            (b) Duties. During the Term, Executive shall have the authority and
power to perform such duties consistent with his positions as Chief Executive
Officer and President as designated by the Board, and shall report only to the
Board or any committees thereof at the request of the Board. Executive shall not
be required without his consent to undertake responsibilities not commensurate
with his position. Executive shall comply fully and promptly with the various
policies, procedures and rules governing employees promulgated and/or as amended
from time to time by the Company and any applicable subsidiary or Affiliate of
the Company (including, without limitation, the Company's Ethical Conduct and
Conflicts of Interest Policy and Government Affairs Policies and Procedures) and
with any applicable disclosure and other requirements of any governmental
authority and of any other entity with which the Company, its subsidiaries and
Affiliates are doing or propose to do business. Except for illness, vacations,
and holidays in accordance with then-current Company policy, and (subject to the
approval of the Board) reasonable leaves of absence, Executive shall devote his
full business time, attention, skill, undivided loyalty and best efforts to the
faithful performance of his duties hereunder; provided, however, that Executive
may, as long as such activities do not interfere with the performance of
Executive's responsibilities: (i) serve (and retain any compensation with
respect to such service) as a director of Ameristar Casinos, Inc., and, with the


                                       4
<PAGE>
prior approval of the Board, serve on other corporate, civic and charitable
boards and committees, (ii) deliver lectures and fulfill speaking engagements,
and (iii) manage personal investments.

            (c) Principal Place of Employment. Executive's principal place of
employment shall be at the Company's principal offices (currently located in
West Greenwich, Rhode Island) or at such other location as the Company hereafter
reasonably may require. Executive agrees to reside in Rhode Island.

            (d) Nomination as Director. Assuming the Term has not been
terminated, the Board agrees to nominate Executive for reelection as director at
the Company's 2003 Annual Meeting, at which time Executive's current term as a
director is scheduled to expire, and Executive agrees, subject to Section 8(d)
hereof, to continue to serve as a director if elected.

      5.    COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES.

            (a) Base Salary. For all services rendered by Executive in all
capacities with the Company, its subsidiaries and Affiliates during the Term,
the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Executive as compensation a salary
at an annual rate of $650,000 (the "Base Salary"), payable in equal installments
not less frequently than monthly through the Company's standard payroll
practices.

            (b)   Performance Bonus.

                  (i) With respect to the Company's fiscal 2003 (ending February
22, 2003), Executive shall be eligible to earn a Prorated Performance Bonus at
the discretion of the Committee. The amount of the Prorated Performance Bonus,
if any, for fiscal year 2003 shall be determined by the Committee in accordance
with the performance metrics included in the GTECH Management Incentive Plan and
Management Business Objectives. Executive's performance will be measured against
the Company's established set of targets for fiscal year 2003, and depending
upon performance against those targets, Executive will be eligible to receive a
bonus for fiscal 2003 (before prorating) in an amount up to 200% of Base Salary.
The target bonus for fiscal 2003 (before prorating) will be 100% of Base Salary.
Promptly after the end of fiscal year 2003, the Committee will consider whether
the Executive's performance justifies an additional performance bonus with
respect to fiscal 2003. The Committee shall determine the amount of such
additional performance bonus, if any, in its complete discretion.

                  (ii) With respect to each fiscal year of the Company during
the Term commencing with fiscal year 2004 (ending February 21, 2004), Executive
shall be eligible to earn a Performance Bonus at the discretion of the
Committee. The amount of the Performance Bonus, if any, for a given fiscal year
shall be determined by the Committee in accordance with the performance metrics
and business objectives included in the GTECH Management Incentive Plan as
approved annually by the Board in its sole discretion for all Senior Executives.
Under the Plan, Executive's performance will be measured against an established
set of targets for each fiscal year, and depending upon performance against
those targets, Executive will be eligible to


                                       5
<PAGE>
receive a bonus in the range of 0% to 200% of Base Salary. The annual target
Performance Bonus will be 100% of Base Salary.

                  (iii) Any Performance Bonus awarded to Executive by the
Committee shall be paid not later than 30 days following payment of bonus
amounts to Senior Executives. Bonus payments for GTECH are normally made in
April/May of each year for the preceding fiscal year ending in February, and
Executive shall receive his Performance Bonus not later than June 15 for such
preceding fiscal year. Executive's Performance Bonus, if any, for any given
fiscal year shall be paid by the Company in a mix of cash and discounted
restricted stock, at the discretion of the Committee, which shall determine
annually (a) the maximum amount of bonus allowed in discounted restricted stock,
not to exceed 30% of the Performance Bonus (with the understanding that it will
not exceed 20% for the fiscal year 2003), (b) the magnitude of the discount, and
(c) the vesting terms under the Omnibus Stock Plan for GTECH, it being
understood that the portion of the Performance Bonus paid in stock in lieu of
the cash payment shall vest immediately, subject to transfer restrictions as
established by the Committee that apply generally to performance bonus stock
awards for other Senior Executives, and the portion of any stock award
representing a discount beyond the Performance Bonus equivalent shall cliff vest
as established by the Committee (with the understanding that the vesting period
will not exceed two years for fiscal year 2003).

                  (iv) Nothing contained in this Agreement constitutes a
guarantee that the Committee will award Executive a Performance Bonus for any
given fiscal year.

            (c)   Change of Control.

                  (i) In the event Executive's employment is terminated by the
Company for any reason other than Cause, or in the event Executive resigns for
Good Reason, within eighteen months after the Change of Control Date, the
Company will pay Executive, as liquidated damages, a lump sum cash payment in
lieu of the severance payments provided under Section 9(b) hereof, payable
within ten (10) days of Executive's termination, equal to two and ninety-nine
hundredths (2.99) times the sum of (A) Executive's current annual Base Salary in
effect at the date of termination (including in base salary for this purpose any
elective salary reductions made by the Executive and contributed by the Company
on Executive's behalf to the Company's retirement plan, any non-qualified plan,
or a plan meeting the requirements of Section 125 of the Code), plus (B) the
total Performance Bonus paid or payable to the Executive from the Company for
the most recent full fiscal year of the Company, plus (C) the maximum amount
allowable under the Executive Perquisite Program during the most recent calendar
year of the Company. In addition, Company shall pay Executive within 10 days
after such termination (i) his Base Salary accrued through the date of such
termination at the rate in effect immediately prior to such date; (ii) any
accrued but unpaid Performance Bonus under Section 5(b) hereof for the prior
fiscal year; (iii) any Prorated Performance Bonus up to the date of such
termination calculated by reference to Executive's target Performance Bonus, as
determined by the Committee for the current fiscal year; and (iv) any other
amounts to which Executive is entitled under the terms of Sections 5 and 6
hereof up to the date of such termination. (If the date of such termination is
within 12 months of the Effective Date, the Performance Bonus will be the target
Prorated Performance Bonus for fiscal year 2003 as set forth in Section 5(b)(i)


                                       6
<PAGE>
hereof.) The payment of any Performance Bonus or Prorated Performance Bonus
after such termination shall be made in cash, notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 5(b)(ii) hereof.

                  (ii) In the event of a termination described in Section
5(c)(i) above, Executive, together with Executive's dependents and
beneficiaries, will become fully vested in and continue following Executive's
termination to participate fully in, at no additional cost to Executive, all
life insurance plans, accident and health plans and other welfare plans,
maintained or sponsored by the Company immediately prior to the termination, at
the same level and subject to terms at least as favorable to Executive as in
effect immediately prior to termination (or the full value thereof in cash) from
the Company, until the third anniversary of termination. Executive will also
become fully vested in the retirement plans, and all non-qualified plans, and
within thirty (30) days of Executive's termination of employment, Company shall
pay to Executive the sum of (i) all benefits accrued under the Non-Qualified
Plans and (ii) an amount equal to 2.99 times the average benefit accrued and/or
Company contributions made to the retirement plans and the non-qualified plans
over the last three fiscal years.

                  (iii) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding and except as set forth below, in the event it shall be
determined that any payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit
of the Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a "Payment") would be
subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or
penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (such
excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Excise-Tax"), then the Executive shall be
entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount
such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest or
penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation,
any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto)
and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an
amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed on the Payments.

                  (iv) All determinations required to be made under this Section
5(c), including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount
of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such
determination, shall be made by Ernst & Young LLP or such other nationally
recognized certified public accounting firm as may be designated by the
Executive (the "Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed supporting
calculations both to the Company and the Executive within 15 business days of
the receipt of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment, or such
earlier time as is requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting
Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group
effecting the Change in Control, the Executive shall appoint another nationally
recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which
accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All
fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company.
Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 5(c), shall be paid
by the Company to the Executive within five days of the receipt of the
Accounting Firm's determination. Subject to the remainder of this Section 5(c),
any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and
the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 280G
and Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the
Accounting


                                       7
<PAGE>
Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been
made by the Company should have been made ("Underpayment"), consistent with the
calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the Company
exhausts its remedies and the Executive thereafter is required to make a payment
of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the
Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid
by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive (so as to fully extinguish
Executive's tax liability for the Payments including all interest and
penalties).

                  (v) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any
claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the
payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given
as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after the Executive
is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature
of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The
Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period
following the date on which Executive gives such notice to the Company (or such
shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such
claim is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the
expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive
shall:

                           (A) give the Company any information reasonably
                  requested by the Company relating to such claim,

                           (B) take such action in connection with contesting
                  such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing
                  from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting
                  legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney
                  reasonably selected by the Company,

                           (C) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order
                  effectively to contest such claim, and

                           (D) permit the Company to participate in any
                  proceedings relating to such claim;

provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and
expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection
with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an
after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and
penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and
payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of
this Section 5(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection
with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all
administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing
authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct
the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim
in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to
a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall
determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the Executive to pay
such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such
payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis and shall


                                       8
<PAGE>
indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any
Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto)
imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with
respect to such advance; and further provided that any extension of the statute
of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the
Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is
limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, the Company's control of
the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment
would be payable hereunder and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or
contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue
Service or any other taxing authority.

                  (vi) If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount
advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 5(c), the Executive becomes entitled
to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject
to the Company's complying with the requirements of Section 5(c)) promptly pay
to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or
credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the
Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 5(c), a
determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund
with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in
writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration
of 30 days after such determination then such advance shall be forgiven and
shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset,
to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

                  (vii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, if Executive is dismissed by the Company for Cause, Executive will not
be entitled to the payments or benefits provided under Section 5(c) hereof.

            (d) Reimbursement of Expenses. Consistent with the Company's
established policies, the Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for all
reasonable and necessary travel and other expenses of Executive incurred by
Executive in performing his duties hereunder upon receipt of appropriate written
substantiation of such expenses.

            (e) One-Time Payment. The Company shall make a one-time payment to
Executive in the amount of $100,000 and such additional payments as are
necessary to offset all taxes which are payable by Executive with respect to
payments described in this Section 5(e).

      6.    BENEFITS.

            (a) Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
Executive shall be entitled to receive, during the Term, benefits substantially
similar to the level of benefits provided generally to Senior Executives under

options to purchase 265,000 shares of Common Stock under the Company's 2002
Omnibus Stock Option and Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2002 Plan"), subject to

                  (ii) Executive shall be eligible for consideration by the
Committee for annual grants of stock options under the 2002 Plan or any
successor plan, in the sole discretion of the Committee. Nothing contained in
this Agreement constitutes a guarantee that the Committee will award Executive
additional stock options beyond those specifically described in Section 6(b)(i)
of this Agreement.

                  (iii) All grants of options under this Agreement are subject
to and conditioned upon the Company obtaining all necessary shareholder
approvals, if any, which Company shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain.
Each time Executive receives a grant of stock options pursuant to this Section
6(b), he shall be asked to enter into the Company's standard Non-Qualified Stock
Option Agreement (the "Option Agreement") which shall set forth the terms and
conditions governing the grant and exercise of the Options including such terms
as are set forth in this Section 6(b) and which Option Agreement with respect to
the option grants under the 2002 Plan shall be substantially similar to the
Option Agreement attached hereto as Appendix B. The Company shall use its best
efforts to file, and cause to be effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, a registration statement on Form S-8 (or a comparable form) with
respect to the shares (or other rights) granted or issued as provided for or
referenced in this Agreement or, if applicable, issuable upon exercise of rights
so provided or referenced, but the Company shall not be obligated to register
any such shares or rights for resale. The Company will also use its best efforts
to ensure that each grant referenced above shall meet the requirements for
exemption under Rule 16b-3 under the Act.

            (c) Restricted Stock. On September 6, 2002, the Company shall grant
to Executive 41,000 shares of Restricted Stock (the "Restricted Shares") under

shall vest on September 6, 2003; 10,250 shall vest September 6, 2004; 10,250
shall vest September 6, 2005; and 10,250 shall vest on September 6, 2006. The
Restricted Shares, after vesting, may be transferred only in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Plan.

            (d) Certain Specific Benefits and Arrangements. Without limiting the
generality of subsection (a) above (except as may otherwise be specified in
Appendix A hereto), Executive shall be entitled to the specific benefits and
arrangements set forth in Appendix A hereto, provided however that, with respect
to calendar year 2002 (or any portion thereof), Executive shall not be entitled
to receive any benefit specified in Appendix A hereto if, but only to the extent
that, Executive received with respect to calendar year 2002 (or such respective
portion thereof) under that certain employment agreement dated August 9, 2000
between the Company and Executive, as amended, a benefit substantially identical
to such Appendix A benefit.

            (e) Indemnification. The Company shall defend and hold Executive, to
the extent the Executive is a defendant, target or witness, harmless to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law in connection with any claim, action,
suit, investigation or proceeding arising out of or relating to performance by
Executive of services for, or action of Executive as a director, officer or
employee of the Company or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company,
or of any other person or enterprise at the Company's request. To the extent
permitted by law, expenses incurred by Executive in defending a claim, action,
suit or investigation or criminal proceeding shall be paid by the Company in
advance of the final disposition thereof upon the receipt by the Company of an
undertaking by or on behalf of Executive to repay said amount unless it shall
ultimately be determined that Executive is entitled to be indemnified hereunder.
This Section 6(e) shall not apply to a non-derivative action commenced by the
Company against Executive.

      7.    BENEFITS PAYABLE DURING TERM UPON DISABILITY.

            (a) Disability Benefits. In the event of Disability of Executive
during the Term of his employment hereunder, the Company shall continue to pay
Executive the compensation and extend to him the benefits provided in Sections 5
and 6 hereof during the period of Disability, subject to Section 9(c) hereof and
to the extent permitted by applicable law, provided that in the event of
Executive's Disability for an aggregate period of time exceeding 150 calendar
days in any 12 consecutive month period during the Term, the Company, at its
election, may terminate the Term of Executive's employment, and Executive shall
receive the compensation as set forth in Section 9(b) hereof.

            (b) Services During Disability. During the Term, notwithstanding any
Disability, Executive shall, to the extent that he is physically and mentally
able to do so, furnish information and assistance to the Company, and, in
addition, upon the reasonable request in writing on behalf of the Board, or a
senior executive officer designated by the Board, from time to time, he shall
make himself available to the Company, its subsidiaries and Affiliates to
undertake reasonable assignments consistent with his position and his physical
and mental health. In the event of such Disability, Executive shall resign from
the Board.

      8.    TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

            (a)   Expiration and Earlier Termination.  Executive's Term of
employment shall terminate upon expiration of the Term and shall be subject
to earlier termination:

                  (i)   upon the death of Executive;

                  (ii)  at the election of the Company in the event of
                        Executive's Disability (as provided in Section 7(a)
                        hereof);

                  (iii) upon discharge of Executive by the Company for Cause;
                        and

                  (iv)  upon discharge of Executive without Cause or
                        resignation of Executive.


                                       11
<PAGE>
            (b) Certain Obligations of the Company. The Company shall give the
Executive not less than 60 days prior written notice of any intended termination
of Executive's employment by the Company for Cause (other than for the reasons
set forth in clauses (ii) and (iv) of the definition of Cause in Section 1
hereof). In the event of such a proposed termination for Cause, such notice
shall specify the grounds for such termination, and the Company shall only be
entitled to terminate the Executive for such Cause if the Executive shall have
failed to cure the grounds for such termination within said 60-day notice period
and Executive shall have been afforded an opportunity to address the Board, with
legal counsel, to argue against such termination. However, after giving such
notice and before Executive is afforded the opportunity to address the Board,
the Company may relieve Executive of his duties on an interim basis. The Company
may immediately terminate Executive's employment by written notice in the event
of the occurrence of any of the events set forth in clauses (ii) and (iv) of the
definition of Cause in Section 1 hereof. In addition, the Company may
immediately terminate Executive's employment without Cause by written notice to
the Executive.

            (c) Certain Obligations of Executive. Executive shall give the
Company not less than 60 days prior written notice of any intended termination
by Executive of Executive's employment. In the event of a proposed resignation
for Good Reason, such notice shall specify the grounds for such resignation, and
Executive shall only be entitled to terminate his employment for Good Reason if
the Company shall have failed to correct the specified grounds within said
60-day notice period and, upon cure thereof by the Company, such event shall no
longer constitute Good Reason. Executive shall not be entitled to terminate for
Good Reason unless he has given notice to the Company of his intention so to
terminate within 60 days following the occurrence of the event alleged to
constitute such Good Reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that
Executive has given the Company notice of his intention to resign, the Board may
elect to have such resignation become effective immediately or at such other
date, not later than the effective date specified in the notice, as the Board
may determine.

            (d) Resignation. Upon termination of the Term for any reason,
Executive (unless otherwise requested by a majority of the independent directors
of the Board) concurrently shall resign any directorships and officer or
employee positions which he holds with the Company, its subsidiaries and
Affiliates.

      9.    COMPENSATION, BENEFITS, ETC. UPON, AND EFFECTS OF, TERMINATION.

            (a) Death, Discharge for Cause and Resignation for Other than Good
Reason. If the Term of Executive's employment is terminated by reason of his
death, discharge for Cause or resignation for other than Good Reason, the
Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Executive or his estate, as the case
may be, at the time such payment is due (i) his Base Salary accrued through the
effective date of such termination at the rate in effect immediately prior to
such termination; (ii) any accrued but unpaid Performance Bonus under Section
5(b) hereof for the prior fiscal year (to be paid at the same time Senior
Executives receive performance bonuses for that fiscal year as set forth in
Section 5(b)(ii) hereof); and (iii) any other amounts to which Executive is
entitled under the terms of Sections 5 and 6 hereof up to the effective date of
such termination. In the event of such termination of employment for Cause or
resignation for other than Good Reason under this Section 9(a), all unvested
stock options and unvested shares of


                                       12
<PAGE>
restricted stock, as they are scheduled to vest in accordance with the
applicable restricted stock and stock option agreements, shall be forfeited by
Executive.

            (b) Disability, Discharge Without Cause and Resignation for Good
Reason. If the Term of Executive's employment is terminated by the Company by
reason of his Disability as provided in Section 7(a) hereof, by the Company
without Cause or by reason of Executive's resignation for Good Reason, the
Company shall pay to Executive or his estate, as the case may be, the following:
(i) his Base Salary accrued through the effective date of such termination at
the rate in effect immediately prior to such termination; (ii) an amount equal
to one year of Average Cash Compensation; (iii) any accrued but unpaid
Performance Bonus under Section 5(b) hereof for the prior fiscal year; (iv) a
Prorated Performance Bonus, if any, payable with respect to the fiscal year of
termination; and (v) any other amounts to which Executive is entitled under the
terms of Sections 5 and 6 hereof up to the effective date of such termination.
If Executive's employment is terminated for any reason under this Section 9(b)
prior to the end of the Company's fiscal 2004, the Average Cash Compensation
shall be an amount equal to the Base Salary plus the target Prorated Performance
Bonus for fiscal year 2003 as set forth in Section 5(b)(i) hereof. The payments
required under this Section 9(b) shall be made by the Company after such
termination as follows: the Base Salary component of Average Cash Compensation
shall be paid in equal bi-weekly installments over one year, the Performance
Bonus component of Average Cash Compensation shall be paid within 14 days, and
the Prorated Performance Bonus, if any, payable with respect to the fiscal year
of termination shall be paid at the same time Senior Executives are paid
performance bonuses for the respective fiscal year. Any such Prorated
Performance Bonus shall be paid in cash, notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 5(b)(ii) hereof.

            (c) In the event this Agreement is terminated in accordance with
Section 9(b) hereof, the Company shall continue, for a period of one year
following such termination, the benefits described in Sections 4, 6 and 8 of
Appendix A, and shall continue the medical benefits described in Section 5 of
Appendix A for the Term, as if the Agreement had not been terminated, plus
continue such medical coverage for an additional period of one year. In
addition, in the event this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section
9(b) hereof, Executive shall become fully vested in the retirement plans, all
non-qualified plans and in all benefits accrued under all other employee benefit
plan (e.g., matches under the 401(k) plan). Executive also shall be entitled, to
the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, to receive such additional
benefits, if any, as he may be entitled to under the express terms of the
applicable benefit plans (other than bonus and severance plans) of the Company,
its subsidiaries and Affiliates, and to whatever medical coverage, if any, as is
required to be provided by applicable law.

            (d) Reductions, Forfeitures, etc. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i)
any payments or benefits required to be paid or provided to Executive pursuant
to Section 7(a) in the event of Executive's Disability shall be reduced to the
extent that comparable payments or benefits are received by Executive during
such period under the Company's disability plan, as in effect from time to time,
(ii) without limiting any other rights the Company may have, any payments or
benefits required to be paid or provided to Executive under this Agreement shall
be forfeited to the Company by Executive if Executive shall breach any of his
obligations under Sections 10(b) or 11 hereof, except as may otherwise be
required by applicable law, and (iii) except as otherwise provided above, the
payments and benefits required by this Section 9 shall


                                       13
<PAGE>
be made or provided at such times as they would have been paid or provided if
Executive's employment had not been terminated.

            (e) Full Settlement. In the event of the termination of Executive's
employment, the payments and other benefits provided for by this Agreement (and
as otherwise provided under the express terms of any compensation or benefit
plans of the Company, its subsidiaries or Affiliates, to the extent not
inconsistent with this Agreement, or as may otherwise be required by applicable
law) shall constitute the entire obligation of the Company, its subsidiaries and
Affiliates to Executive for compensation and benefits and shall also constitute
full and complete settlement of any claim under law or in equity that the
Executive might otherwise assert against the Company, its subsidiaries or
Affiliates, for compensation and benefits. Executive has no duty to mitigate
respecting other employment after the termination of this Agreement and shall be
entitled to receive the amounts described in this Section 9 irrespective of
whether Executive obtains other employment immediately following such
termination.

      10.   CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF EXECUTIVE.

      Executive further covenants with the Company as follows and expressly
agrees that the provisions of Sections 10 and 11 are material obligations to the
Company and the breach of those provisions will constitute material breaches of
this Agreement. As used in Sections 10 and 11, the term the "Company" shall
include GTECH Holdings Corporation and its subsidiaries and Affiliates.

            (a) Assistance in Litigation. During the Term, and for a period of
three years thereafter subject to reasonable accommodation of Executive's then

information and proper assistance to the Company as may reasonably be required
in connection with any litigation in which the Company is, or may become, a
party or in connection with any investigation or review by any governmental
agency of which the Company is or may become a subject. The Company shall
compensate Executive at a reasonable hourly rate, plus reimburse all expenses
incurred consistent with Company policy, for any such assistance provided by
Executive after the Term.

            (b) Confidential Information. Executive shall not knowingly use for
his own benefit or disclose or reveal to any person, during or after the Term,
any trade secret or other confidential information relating to the Company,
including any customer lists, customer needs, price and performance information,
processes, specifications, hardware, software, firmware, programs, devices,
supply sources and characteristics, business opportunities, marketing,
promotional, pricing and financing techniques, and other information relating to
the Company; provided that such restriction on confidential information shall
not apply to information which is (i) proven to be generally available in the
industry, (ii) disclosed in published literature or (iii) obtained by Executive
after the Term from a third party without binder of secrecy. Executive agrees
that, except as otherwise agreed by the Company, he will return to the Company,
promptly upon the request of the Board or any executive officer designated by
the Board, any physical embodiment of such confidential information. In the
event Executive is requested by any legal process to disclose Confidential
Information, Executive shall immediately inform the Company and shall permit the
Company an opportunity to oppose such process, it being


                                       14
<PAGE>
understood that Executive's compliance with legal process, after the Company's
reasonable opportunity to oppose such process, does not constitute a violation
of this Section 10(b).

            (c) Proprietary Creations. All rights, title and interest in and to
any ideas, inventions, technology, processes, know-how, works, hardware,
software, firmware, programs, devices, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks or
service marks, which Executive may conceive, create, organize, prepare or
product during the period of his employment with the Company and which relate to
the business of the Company, and all rights, title and interest in and to any
patents, patent applications, copyright registrations and copyright applications
resulting therefrom, shall be owned by the Company, and Executive agrees to
execute instruments or documents, to provide evidence and testimony, and to
otherwise assist the Company in establishing, enforcing and maintaining such
rights, title and interest of the Company during and after the Term.

            (d) Authorization. Executive does hereby irrevocably constitute,
authorize, empower and appoint the Company, or any of its officers, such
Executive's true and lawful attorney (with full power of substitution and
delegation) in Executive's name, and in Executive's place and stead, or in the
Company's name, to take and do such action, and to make, sign, execute,
acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments or documents which the Company,
from time to time, may deem desirable or necessary to vest in the Company, its
successors and assigns, any of the rights, title or interest granted pursuant to
Section 10(c) above for the use and benefit of the Company, its successors and
assigns.

      11.   NON-COMPETITION.

            (a) During the Term and for two years following termination of
Executive's employment (irrespective of the reason for such termination),
Executive shall not engage or propose to engage, directly or indirectly (which
includes owning, managing, operating, controlling, being employed by, acting as
a consultant to, giving financial assistance to, participating in or being
connected in any material way with any business or person so engaged) in any
Lottery Business anywhere in the world, including without limitation in any
business which competes or proposes to compete with any Lottery Business in
which the Company was engaged or proposed to be engaged anywhere in the world;
provided, that Executive's ownership as a passive investor of less than one
percent of the issued and outstanding stock or equity, or $100,000 principal
amount of any debt securities, of any corporation, partnership or other entity
so engaged shall not by itself be deemed to constitute such engagement by
Executive. As used herein, the term " Lottery Business" shall mean the provision
of products or services of every nature relating to the operation of all manner
of lotteries however and wherever conducted, but does not include traditional
gaming activities not of the type and nature customarily operated by
governments.

            (b) Further, for a period of two years following termination of
Executive's employment (irrespective of the reason for such termination),
Executive shall not (i) disturb or interfere with any business relationship
between the Company and any of its customers, suppliers or other business
associates, or (ii) solicit or cause to be solicited any officer, employee or
customer of the Company to terminate such person's relationship with the Company
or to take other action which is materially injurious to the Company.

all Federal, State, City, or other taxes as shall be required pursuant to any
law or governmental regulations or ruling.

      13.   EFFECT OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS.

      This Agreement, including the Appendices hereto, contains the entire
understanding between the parties hereto with respect, to the matters covered
herein and supersedes any prior agreement, condition, practice, custom, usage
and obligation with respect to such matters insofar as any such prior agreement,
condition, practice, custom, usage or obligation might have given rise to any
enforceable right, except for those agreements respecting the grant of stock
options and restricted stock identified on Appendix C hereto, which shall
continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the employment agreement dated August
9, 2000 between the Company and Executive, as amended, is superceded in its
entirety by this Agreement.

      14.   GENERAL PROVISIONS.

            (a) Certain Representations and Warranties of Executive. Executive
represents to the Company that (i) the execution and performance of this
Agreement by Executive and his employment hereunder does not and will not
constitute a breach of or violate any contract, agreement, obligation or
understanding, oral or written, or order of any court or governmental authority
to which he is a party or by which he is bound; (ii) the employment and other
personal background information provided by Executive to Company is true and
correct in all material respects; (iii) to the best of Executive's knowledge,
there is no factor relating to him or his family not previously disclosed in
writing to the Company which could reasonably be expected, if he were a senior
executive officer or director of the Company, to disqualify the Company, its
subsidiaries or Affiliates from, or materially jeopardize their chances of,
obtaining lottery contracts or other contracts in the businesses in which they
are engaged or propose to engage; and (iv) Executive has been represented by
counsel selected by Executive in the negotiation and preparation of this
Agreement.

            (b) Non-assignability and Inurement. Neither this Agreement nor any
rights or interest hereunder shall be assignable by Executive, his
beneficiaries, or legal representatives without the Company's prior written
consent (it being understood that all payments to which Executive is entitled
hereunder shall inure to the benefit of his estate or legal heirs).

            (c) Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and
accrue to the benefit of, Executive and the Company and their respective heirs,
executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns, including, in the

the Company's assets.

            (d)   Amendment of Agreement.  This Agreement may not be modified
or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

            (e) Remedies. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the possible
restrictions on his activities which may occur as a result of his performance of
his obligations under Sections 10 and 11 hereof are required for the reasonable
protection of the Company, its subsidiaries and Affiliates, and Executive
expressly acknowledges and agrees that such restrictions are fair and reasonable
for that purpose. Executive further expressly acknowledges and agrees that
damages alone will be an inadequate remedy for any breach or violation by him of
this Agreement and that the Company, its subsidiaries and Affiliates, in
addition to all other remedies at law or in equity, shall be entitled as a
matter of right to injunctive relief, including specific performance, with
respect to any such breach or violation, in any court of competent jurisdiction
including, without limitation, any state or federal court in Rhode Island. If
any of the provisions of such Sections are held to be in any respect an
unreasonable or unlawful restriction upon Executive, then they shall be deemed
to extend only over the maximum period of time, geographic area, and/or range of
activities as to which they may be enforceable.

            (f) Waiver. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed
to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of
any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party
charged with such waiver or estoppel.

            (g) Severability. If, for any reason, any provision of this
Agreement is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision
of this Agreement not so held invalid, and each such other provision shall to
the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect.

            (h) Notices. For the purposes of this Agreement, notice and all
other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and

            (i) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile and in
several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of
which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

            (j) Indulgences, Etc. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part
of either party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this
Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further
exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor
shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any


                                       17

with respect to any other occurrence.

their successors and assigns, shall be jointly and severally liable for all
obligations or any of them to Executive hereunder. In the event that a
substantial portion of the assets of either Company are transferred to any other
direct or indirect subsidiary or other Affiliate of the Company, whether in one
transaction or a series of transactions, such Company, as applicable, shall
cause (prior to or concurrently with each transfer) the transferee to become a
signatory to this Agreement and to become jointly and severally liable for all
obligations or any of them to Executive hereunder.

            (n) Conflicts. To the extent there is any conflict between the terms
of this Agreement and the Option Agreement or the Restricted Stock Agreement
respecting acceleration or vesting of stock options or restricted stock, the
provisions of this Agreement shall supersede any other conflicting provisions in
those agreements.

            (o) References to Plans. Any reference in this Agreement to a
specific employee benefit plan, program or arrangement maintained by the Company
shall be deemed to be a reference to such plan, program or arrangement, as it
may be amended from time to time, and to any successor thereto. Nothing
contained herein shall be interpreted as requiring the Company to keep any plan,
program or arrangement in effect.

                          GTECH HOLDINGS CORPORATION

                     NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT


            NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT made as of the ___ day of
___________, 2002 (the "Grant Date"), between GTECH HOLDINGS CORPORATION, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and _____________, an Employee of the
Company (the "Employee" or "optionee").

            WHEREAS, the Company desires to afford the Employee an opportunity
to purchase shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value, of the Company ("Stock"), as
hereinafter provided, in accordance with the provisions of the Company's 2002
OMNIBUS STOCK OPTION AND LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN (the "Plan"), which is
incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Capitalized terms used
and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Plan.

            NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter
set forth, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereunder, agree as
follows:

            1. GRANT OF OPTIONS. The Company hereby grants to the Employee the
right and option (the "Options") to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of
__________shares of Stock. The Options are in all respects limited and
conditioned as hereinafter provided, and are subject to the terms and conditions
of the Plan now in effect and as they may be amended from time to time in
accordance with the Plan and any rules, regulations and procedures pursuant
thereto which may be adopted by the Compensation Committee or such other
committee of the Board of Directors as may be designated (the "Committee") from
time to time. (Said terms, conditions, rules, regulations and procedures are and
automatically shall be incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof
and shall control in the event of any conflict with any other terms of this
Option Agreement.) It is intended that the Options granted hereunder be
Non-Qualified Stock Options ("NQSOs") and NOT Incentive Stock Options ("ISOs")
as such term is defined in section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code").

            2. PURCHASE PRICE. The purchase price per share of the shares of
Stock covered by the Options (the "Option Price") shall be $_____. It is the
determination of the Committee that on the Grant Date the Option Price was not
less than the higher of: (i) one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value
of said Stock, or (ii) the par value thereof.

            3. TERM. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to any provision of the
Plan or of this Option Agreement, the Options shall expire _______________ (the
"Expiration Date"), which date is not more than ten years from the Grant Date.
The Options shall not be exercisable after the Expiration Date.

            4. EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. The Options shall become exercisable in such
installments and on such dates, as is set forth below, subject to possible
acceleration as provided in this Option Agreement or the Plan, and provided that
no Option shall be exercisable during the six (6) month period commencing on the
Date of Grant:

            NUMBER OF SHARES        DATE EXERCISABLE

                  [___]             [_______________]
                  [___]             [_______________]
                  [___]             [_______________]
                  [___]             [_______________]
<PAGE>
Options that become exercisable in accordance with the foregoing shall remain
exercisable, subject to the provisions of the Plan and this Option Agreement,
until the expiration of the term of the Options as set forth in Section 3 hereof
or until other termination of the Options.

            5. METHOD OF EXERCISING OPTIONS. Subject to the terms and conditions
of this Option Agreement and the Plan, the Options may be exercised upon at
least two (2) days written notice to the Company, Attention: General Counsel, at
the Company's principal office, which currently is located at 55 Technology Way,
West Greenwich, Rhode Island 02817, or to such agent as the Company may
designate, at such agent's address. Such notice shall state the election to
exercise the Options and the number of shares with respect to which they are
being exercised; shall be signed by the person or persons so exercising the
Option; shall, if the Company so requests, be accompanied by the investment
certificate referred to in Section 6 hereof; and shall be accompanied by payment
of the full Option price of such shares.

            The Option price shall be paid to the Company:

            (a) In cash, or in its equivalent;

            (b) In unrestricted Stock previously acquired by the Employee and
            held by the Employee for at least six (6) months;

            (c) In any combination of (a) and (b) above; or

            (d) By delivering a properly executed notice of exercise of the
            Options to the Company and a broker, with irrevocable instructions
            to the broker promptly to deliver to the Company the amount of sale
            or loan proceeds necessary to pay the exercise price of the Options,
            and by delivering such proceeds in cash or its equivalent. (NOTE
            THAT THE PAYMENT PROCEDURE SPECIFIED IN CLAUSE (d) IS CONSIDERED A
            SALE BY AN EMPLOYEE WHO IS SUBJECT TO SECTION 16(b) OF THE
            SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 ("SECTION 16(b)") WHICH MAY BE
            MATCHED WITH ANY NON-EXEMPT PURCHASE WITHIN THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD
            BEFORE OR AFTER THE BROKER FINANCED TRANSACTION.)

            In the event such Option Price is paid, in whole or in part, with
shares of Stock, the portion of the Option Price so paid shall be equal to the
Fair Market Value of such Stock being used as payment on the date the notice of
exercise is received by the Company or its agent.

            Upon receipt of such notice and payment, the Company, as promptly as
practicable, shall deliver or cause to be delivered a certificate or
certificates representing the shares of Stock with respect to which the Options
are so exercised. The certificate or certificates for such shares shall be
registered in the name of the person or persons so exercising the Options (or,
if the Options shall be exercised by the Employee and if the Employee shall so
request in the notice exercising the Options, shall be registered in the name of
the Employee and the Employee's spouse, jointly, with right of survivorship) and
shall be delivered as provided above to or upon the written order of the person
or persons exercising the Options. All shares that shall be purchased upon the
exercise of the Options as provided herein shall be fully paid and
non-assessable by the Company.

            6. SHARES TO BE PURCHASED FOR INVESTMENT. Unless the Company has
theretofore notified the Employee that a registration statement covering the
shares to be acquired upon the exercise of the Options has become effective
under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Company has not thereafter notified the
Employee that such registration is no longer effective, it shall be a condition
to any exercise of the Options that the shares acquired upon such exercise be
acquired for investment and not with a view to distribution, and the person
effecting such exercise shall submit to the Company a certificate of such
investment intent, together with such other evidence supporting the same as the
Company may request. The Company shall be entitled to restrict the
transferability of the shares issued upon any such exercise to the extent
necessary to avoid a risk of violation of the Securities Act of 1933 (or of any
rules or regulations promulgated thereunder) or of any state laws or
regulations. Such restrictions may, at the option of the Company, be noted or
set forth in full on the share certificates.



<PAGE>
            7. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTION. Except as otherwise permitted by
the Committee, the Options are not assignable or transferable, in whole or in
part, by the Employee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution, and during the lifetime of the Employee the Options shall be
exercisable only by the Employee or, in the event of his disability, by his
guardian or legal representative. A transferred Option shall continue to be
subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Option
immediately prior to transfer.

            8. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Subject to Section 10 of the Plan,
"Change-In-Control Provisions", Section 12 of the Plan, "Adjustment Upon Change
of Shares", and Section 14 of the Plan, "Amendment and Termination of Plan", and
unless otherwise determined by the Committee at or after the Grant Date, if the
Employee's employment by the Company terminates prior to the Expiration Date of
the Options set forth in Section 3 hereof, the Options, to the extent
unexercised, shall terminate as follows:

            (a) RETIREMENT. If the Employee retires from the Company (such
retirement to be determined at the sole discretion of the Committee), all
unvested Options previously granted to the Employee shall vest and the Employee
shall have two (2) years from the effective date of retirement within which to
exercise all vested Options.

            (b) CESSATION OF SERVICE FOR ANY REASON EXCEPT RETIREMENT OR CAUSE.
If the Employee's employment by the Company terminates for any reason other than
retirement as set forth in paragraph (a) above or Cause as set forth in
paragraph (c) herein, the Options may be exercised, but only if vested on the
date of such termination of service, at any time prior to the earlier of: (i)
the Expiration Date specified in Section 3 hereof; or (ii) the expiration of six
(6) months following the date of such termination of employment.

            (c) CESSATION OF SERVICE FOR CAUSE. If the Employee's employment by
the Company is terminated for Cause (as defined in Section 6(f) of the Plan),
all unexercised vested and unvested Options held by the Employee shall lapse and
be forfeited on the date of termination of service.

            (d) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) above, the period of
exercisability of the Options following termination of service is subject to
possible earlier termination under the provisions of the Plan.

            9. WITHHOLDING OF TAXES. In calculating the Employee's tax
obligations, the Company shall value the Stock being purchased as follows: With
respect to Sections 5(a) through (c), the value of the Stock being purchased
shall be its Fair Market Value on the day the Company or its agent receives the
Employee's notice of exercise. With respect to Section 5(d), the value of the
Stock being purchased shall be the price at which the Employee's broker enters
into a contract to sell the Stock being purchased, as certified in writing by
such broker. The obligation of the Company to deliver shares of Stock upon the
exercise of the Options shall be subject to the Company's receipt of the
Employee's share of those amounts which the Company is obligated to withhold
under applicable federal, state and local tax withholding requirements.

            If the exercise of any of the Options is subject to the withholding
requirements of applicable tax laws, the Committee may permit the Employee,
subject to the provisions of the Plan and such additional withholding rules (the
"Withholding Rules") as may be adopted by the Committee, to satisfy the
withholding tax, in whole or in part, by electing to have the Company withhold
(or by returning to the Company) shares of Stock, which shares shall be valued,
for this purpose, at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the
Options (or, if later, the date on which the optionee recognizes ordinary income
with respect to such exercise) (the "Determination Date"). An election to use
shares of Stock to satisfy tax withholding requirements must be made in
compliance with and subject to the Withholding Rules.

            10. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY. The Employee shall designate, on a
form set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement, one or more beneficiaries to
receive Options in the event of the Employee's death prior to the full exercise
of such Options; provided, that if so such beneficiary is designated or if the
beneficiary so designated does not survive the Employee, the estate of such
Employee shall be deemed to be the beneficiary. The Employee may, upon written
notice to the Committee, change the beneficiary designated in this Option
Agreement.



<PAGE>
            11.  GOVERNING LAW.  This Option Agreement shall be construed in
accordance with, and its interpretation shall be governed by, the laws of the
State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles.

            IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this NON-QUALIFIED STOCK
OPTION AGREEMENT to be duly executed by its duly authorized officer, and the
Employee has executed this Agreement, all on the day and year first above
written.
