THIS FACILITY AGREEMENT is the amended and restated form of a facility agreement originally made the 10th day of August 2000 and in its amended and restated form is made

BETWEEN

(1)

SPORTECH PLC (formerly known as Rodime plc) a company incorporated in Scotland with limited liability (registered number 69140) with its registered office situated at 249 West George Street, Glasgow G2 4RB (the Borrower);

(3)

THE GOVERNOR AND COMPANY OF THE BANK OF SCOTLAND as arranger of the address aforesaid (in this capacity the Arranger);

(4)

THE BANKS named in Schedule 2.

WHEREAS the Borrower has requested the Banks to afford the Facility upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Banks have agreed to do so.

NOW 1T IS HEREBY AGREED as follows:

PART 1

THE FACILITY

1.

The Facility

The Banks grant to the Borrower upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof a term loan facility of up to a maximum principal amount of One Hundred and Four Million Pounds (£104,000,000).

2.

Purpose and Application of Advances

2.01

The purpose of the Facility is to enable the Borrower to discharge its obligations to the Vendor under Clause 4 of the Share Purchase Agreement and accordingly the Borrower shall apply all amounts borrowed by it hereunder in or towards satisfaction of such purposes.

2.02

Subject to the terms of this Agreement and in particular to Clause 2.01, Advances may be made to the Borrower on the Completion Date. Advances under the Facility once repaid may not be redrawn.

2.03

Without prejudice to the obligations of the Borrower under Clause 2.01, neither the Agent, the Banks nor any of them shall be obliged to concern themselves with the application of Advances.

The obligations of each Bank under the Financing Documents are separate and not joint and several and the total amounts outstanding at any time under the Financing Documents and due to each Bank constitute separate and independent debts.

4.02

The failure by a Bank to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower towards any other party hereto nor shall any such other party be liable for the failure by a Bank to perform its obligations hereunder.

5.

Only the Borrower may draw down Advances under the Facility.

PART 3

INTEREST

7.

Interest Periods

7.01

The period for which an Advance is outstanding shall be divided into successive periods each of which (other than the first which shall start on the date of drawdown of the Advance) shall start on the expiry of the preceding period.

7.02

Save as otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Banks, the duration of each Interest Period shall be for one, two, three, or six months, in each case as the Borrower may (save in the case of the first Interest Period in relation to an Advance when the selection shall be made in the Drawdown Notice) select by not less than three business days' prior notice to the Agent. If the Borrower fails to give such notice the duration of that Interest Period shall be three months.

7.03

Any Interest Period which would otherwise end during the month preceding or extend beyond the Final Repayment Date shall be of such duration that it shall end on the Final Repayment Date.

7.04

The Agent and the Borrower may agree to adjust the length of any Interest Period as they may consider appropriate in order that such Interest Period ends on the day on which any payments are to be made in relation to any Permitted Hedging Transaction.

8.

Interest

8.01

On the last day of each Interest Period (or in the case of an Interest Period of more than three months duration on the last day of the first three months from the start of the relevant Interest Period and thereafter on the last day of each period of three months falling thereafter or, if earlier, the last day of the relevant Interest Period) the Borrower shall pay accrued interest on the Advance to which such Interest Period relates.

8.02

The rate of interest applicable to an Advance shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of the Applicable Margin for the relevant Interest Period, LIBOR for the relevant Interest Period and Mandatory Costs as determined by the Agent.

8.03

Interest and fees shall accrue from day to day and shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed.

9.

Alternative Interest Rates

9.01

If the Agent acting reasonably determines that as a result of circumstances applying in the London Interbank Market generally at 11.00 a.m. on the Quotation Date for an Interest Period the Screen Rate is not available and only one or none of the Reference Banks was offering deposits in Sterling to prime banks in the London Interbank Market for the proposed duration of such Interest Period or that otherwise LIBOR cannot be determined or if the Agent shall have received notice from a Bank or Banks whose participations in an Advance constitute at least one-third in aggregate of that Advance that LIBOR does not fully reflect their cost of funding their respective participations in the relevant Advance, then, notwithstanding the provisions of Clauses 7 and 8:

(i)

the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Banks of such event;

(ii)

the duration of that Interest Period shall be one month;

(iii)

if the Agent or the Borrower so requires within five business days of such notification, for the immediately following period of thirty business days the Agent, the Banks and the Borrower shall enter into negotiation in good faith with a view to agreeing a substitute basis (a) for determining the rates of interest from time to time applicable to Advances and/or (b) upon which such Advances may be made and maintained thereafter, in both cases on the basis that the net return to the Banks shall be the same as it would have been had such event not occurred. If a substitute basis is agreed it shall apply in accordance with the terms agreed retrospectively as appropriate to all Advances made or renewed since the Agent's notification referred to in Clause 9.01(i) and Advances may thereupon again be made on the substitute basis for so long as such circumstances shall prevail;

(iv)

for so long as such circumstances prevail and provided that a substitute basis as specified in sub-Clause (iii) above has not been agreed the rate of interest applicable to Advances shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of the Applicable Margin, Mandatory Costs as determined by the Agent and in relation to each Bank's participation in Advances the rate rounded upwards (if necessary) to four decimal places notified by such Bank to the Agent as that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to such Bank of funding from whatever reasonable sources it may select an amount equal to its participation in such Advance for delivery on the first day of such Interest Period and for repayment at the end of such Interest

Period; and

(v)

for so long as such circumstances prevail the Agent and the Borrower shall from time to time, but at least monthly, review whether such circumstances still prevail, with a view to returning to the normal provisions of this Agreement.

9.02

If the alternative interest rate charged by any Bank pursuant to Clause 9.01(iv) is unacceptable to the Borrower, the Borrower may (within 30 days of the setting of the rate referred to in Clause 9.01(iv) above) on not less than five business days' written notice by the Borrower to the Agent prepay such Bank's share of all (but not some only) Advances and on the giving of such notice:

(i)

such Bank shall not thereafter be obliged to make Advances hereunder and the amount of its Commitment shall be immediately reduced to zero; and

(ii)

if the Agent on behalf of such Bank so requires, the Borrower shall on the expiry of such notice prepay such Bank's share of any outstanding Advances together with accrued interest thereon and shall pay all other amounts owing to such Bank hereunder.

PART 4

REPAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT

10.

Repayment

Unless earlier repayment is required under the terms of this Agreement, on each date set out in Column (1) in Schedule 4 the Borrower will repay the principal amount advanced under the Facility by an instalment equal to the principal amount set out in Column (2) opposite that date.

11.

Prepayment

11.01

The Borrower may, if has given to the Agent not less than thirty days' prior written notice to that effect, prepay the whole or any part of any Advance made to it (being an amount or integral multiple of Five Million Pounds (£5,000,000) or the balance of the amount outstanding under this Agreement).

11.02

Any notice of prepayment given by the Borrower pursuant to Clause 11.01 shall be irrevocable, shall specify the date upon which such prepayment is to be made and shall oblige the Borrower to make such prepayment on such date.

11.03

On receipt by any member of the Group of any Net Proceeds the Borrower shall procure that an amount equal to such Net Proceeds shall forthwith be applied in prepaying Advances under the Facility.

11.04

The Borrower shall not repay or prepay all or any part of any Advance except at the times and in the manner expressly provided for in this Agreement and shall not be entitled to re-borrow any amount repaid or prepaid. Any prepayments shall be made together with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement in relation to the amount prepaid calculated up to the date of prepayment.

11.05

Any sums prepaid in respect of the Facility shall be applied pro rata against the instalments set out in Schedule 4.

11.06

The Borrower shall prepay all amounts outstanding under this Agreement (and the amount of the Commitments will be reduced to nil) on the occurrence of a Change of Control.

11.07

Any prepayment or cancellation in accordance with the terms of this Clause 11 shall be without any premium or fee except for any breakage costs payable to the Banks pursuant to Clause 22.04 except that (subject to Clause 32.04) where any prepayment or cancellation is made pursuant to, in contemplation of or otherwise in connection with a refinancing of the Facility by any person other than the Banks, the Borrower shall on the date of prepayment pay the Agent for account of the Banks a prepayment fee equal to zero point five per cent. (0.5%) of the amount prepaid and/or cancelled on the business day immediately prior to such prepayment or cancellation.

11.08

Where any amount to be prepaid under Clause 11.03 is received by the Agent during an Interest Period, the Agent will (subject to the terms of Clause 11.10) retain such amount in a Security Account until the end of such Interest Period and will apply such amount against the relevant Advance on the expiry of such Interest Period.

11.09

Sums held by the Agent under Clause 11.08 will be placed in a Security Account pending application against the relevant Advance and the interest earned on such account will be applied by the Agent towards the interest due in respect of the relevant Advance at the time the amount is applied in prepayment of such Advance. The rate of interest payable on such account will be the best commercial deposit rate payable by the Agent for sums equivalent to the amount credited to the Security Account for the anticipated duration of the deposit.

11.10 The Borrower may by written notice to the Agent require that any Interest Period be broken and that the proceeds arising under Clause 11.03 be applied immediately towards prepayment of the relevant Advance subject to payment of any breakage costs thereby incurred by the Banks.
