	 	9.	Executive shall have the right to negotiate agreements on behalf of the Business provided that, unless otherwise specified by policy approved by the Management Board of the Employer

 (D) Executive shall devote his best efforts and ability and all required business time to the
performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder to achieve the goals set forth in the Employer's annual business plan. Executive shall

the basis for termination for Cause as set forth in Paragraph 6(C) below, the Employer shall indemnify, defend, and hold Executive harmless, including the payment of reasonable attorney fees, if the Employer does not directly provide Executive's
defense, from and against all claims made by anyone, including, but not limited to, a corporate entity, company, other employee, agent, patron, tribal member, or any member of the general public with respect to any claim that asserts as a basis, any
acts, omissions, or other circumstances involving the performance of Executive.

	3.	Term. 

 This Agreement shall govern Executive’s
employment with the Employer from the Effective Date through and including June 30, 2012. This Agreement, including this paragraph, shall automatically renew for an additional term of five years unless either party shall notify the other of its
intention to terminate, or unless otherwise terminated as provided herein. Any such notice of intention to terminate shall be delivered not later than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the end of the then current term and shall be
effective at the end of such term, except as otherwise provided herein. 
  

	4.	Base Annual Salary. 

 Commencing with the Effective
Date and through December 31, 2009, the Employer shall pay Executive a base annual salary (“Base Annual Salary”) in the amount of $1,358,291.38, payable in equal weekly installments of $26,120.99 each. Commencing January 1, 2010,
and on each January 1 thereafter during the term of this Agreement, the then current Base Annual Salary shall be increased in an amount mutually agreed to by Executive and the Employer, which amount shall in no event be less than 5% of the then
current Base Annual Salary. 
  

	5.	Reimbursement of Certain Expenses; Vacation; Medical Benefits. 

 (A) The Employer will reimburse Executive for necessary and reasonable business expenses incurred by him in the performance of his duties hereunder, provided, that he shall obtain the approval for such expenditures in
accordance with the procedures adopted by the Employer from time to time and generally applicable to its executive-level employees, including such procedures with respect to submission of appropriate documentation and receipts. Failure by Executive
to follow such procedures shall entitle the Employer to refuse to reimburse Executive for such expenses until such time as such failure has been cured. It is understood and agreed that Employer shall not be responsible for any expense of Executive
for leasing or operation of a vehicle for Executive (except that Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement for the expenses, including mileage, actually incurred in connection of his use of his automobile for the business-related purposes of the
Employer), nor for any expense of Executive for legal expenses or tax planning expenses incurred by Executive in interpreting this or any other agreement between Executive and Employer. 
 (B) Executive shall be entitled to four weeks paid vacation per fiscal year (at least two weeks of which is recommended to be taken in 14 consecutive
days). 
 (C) Executive shall participate in such employee benefit plans and programs (including but not limited to medical insurance
programs) as are now or may hereafter be adopted by the Employer for its executive employees and their families. Employer shall continue to provide such medical insurance coverage for a period of one (1) year (not to be included as COBRA
coverage) after any termination by Employer of Executive’s employment hereunder if such termination was without Cause, as hereinafter defined.

	6.	Disability; Termination. 

 (A) If Executive shall
become unable to perform all of his duties set forth in Paragraph 2 of this Agreement due to mental or physical disability, all compensation and benefits provided in this Agreement shall continue to be paid and provided in full for a period not
exceeding one hundred and eighty (180) consecutive days. Upon completion of such one hundred and eighty (180) days (or if Executive shall be disabled for an aggregate period of one hundred and eighty (180) days in any period of three
hundred and sixty (360) consecutive days by the same incapacity) the Employer may, at its sole option, suspend Executive's employment until Executive is recovered from such mental or physical disability (as reasonably certified by a physician
designated by the Employer and reasonably satisfactory to Executive). During any period of suspension on account of disability, Executive shall receive only such compensation as may be provided under the disability insurance described in Paragraph
6(B). If the physician designated by the Employer certifies that Executive is permanently disabled, Employer’s obligations under this Agreement shall cease, provided, however, that Executive shall be entitled to the disability benefits set
forth in Paragraph 6(B) below. 
 (B) Employer, at the sole expense of Employer, shall provide disability insurance coverage for Executive.
Such policy shall provide payment of 50% of Executive’s Base Annual Salary commencing with suspension or termination of employment pursuant to Paragraph 6(A) above by reason of physical or mental disability and for a period of two
(2) years if such disability was the result of injury and to age 65 if such disability was the result of physical or mental illness. In the event the Employer is unable to obtain disability insurance in the amount required, or is unable to
obtain all or part of such insurance at standard rates, the Employer shall at its option obtain part or all of such insurance at non-standard rates or shall self-insure in whole or in part for the time periods set forth in this paragraph.

 (C) Subject to the provisions of this paragraph, the Employer may terminate Executive's employment for Cause, defined as
(i) Executive’s violation of the Restrictive Covenants as defined in Paragraph 9 of this Agreement, (ii) loss or suspension by the State of Connecticut of Executive’s license for Class III gaming for a period of thirty
(30) consecutive days, (iii) Executive’s conviction of any crime involving fraud, theft or moral turpitude, or (iv) Executive’s intentional material breach of his obligations under this Agreement in order to cause the
Employer, acting through the Chairman, to terminate Executive. Employer may suspend Executive without pay upon Executive’s arrest for any alleged felony against Employer or the Tribe. In the event that Executive is found not guilty or otherwise
exonerated for an alleged crime against Employer or the Tribe, Executive’s suspended pay shall be reimbursed to him. In the event that Employer desires to terminate Executive for Cause, the Employer shall give written notice specifying the
act(s) claimed to constitute Cause and specifying an effective date of termination, which date shall be no sooner than thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice. Upon the written request of Executive, the Management Board of the Employer
shall meet with Executive to discuss the reasons for termination and to provide Executive with an opportunity to respond. In the event Executive fails to cure the act(s) claimed to constitute Cause as set forth in the notice of termination,
Executive will cease employment with the Employer effective upon the date provided in the notice of termination. If such termination is for Cause, then Executive shall not be entitled to any further compensation from and after the date of
termination. 
 (D) Subject to the provisions of this paragraph, the Employer may terminate 

  

 Page 5 of 11 








 
Executive’s employment other than for Cause, as defined above. In the event of termination, other than for Cause, Executive shall be paid, following
termination, his Base Annual Salary from the date of termination to the expiration date of this Agreement (without regard to any renewal right after the date of termination); provided that such Base Annual Salary shall be payable to Executive in the
same amount and at the same intervals as would have been paid had his employment continued, and provided further that all payments of such Base Annual Salary shall be paid to the Executive’s estate in the event of Executive’s death prior
to the expiration date of this Agreement. 
 In addition, the parties understand and agree that should Employer terminate Executive’s
employment other than for Cause, the Executive would reasonably want to withdraw his deferred compensation and Employer agrees, under such circumstances, to pay the penalty for early withdrawal of said deferred compensation in an amount not to
exceed (i) the lesser of the actual penalty or $250,000 if such withdrawal occurs on or before December 31, 2009, and (ii) the lesser of the actual penalty or $166,650 if such withdrawal occurs after December 31, 2009 but on or
before December 31, 2010. The Employer shall not be required to pay any portion of any penalty for early withdrawal of Executive’s deferred compensation if such withdrawal occurs after December 31, 2010. Additionally, the Employer
shall be obligated to pay only the amount specified in clauses (i) or (ii) for the initial withdrawal of any portion of the Executive’s deferred compensation, and Employer shall not be obligated to pay any amount thereafter if
Executive elects to make partial withdrawals of his deferred compensation. The Employer shall pay to Executive the amount, if any, of income taxes payable by Executive in connection with any penalty payments by Employer under clauses (i) or
(ii) of this Paragraph 6(D). 
 (E) In the event that Executive voluntarily terminates his employment hereunder, Executive's employment
shall cease as of the date provided in Executive's notice to Employer of his voluntary termination, and thereafter, provided that the Employer shall not then be in material breach of this Agreement, Executive shall not be entitled to any further
compensation hereunder. 
  

	7.	Covenants of Executive Not to Compete. 

 Executive
acknowledges that with respect to the Business, as defined above, and in the states of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine (the "Restricted Area") (i) the Employer is
one of a limited number of entities engaged in the Business; (ii) his services to the Employer are special and unique; (iii) his work for the Employer has given him and will continue to give him access to confidential information
concerning the Employer; and (iv) he has the means to support himself and his dependents other than by engaging in the Business of the Employer and the provisions of this Paragraph 7 will not impair such ability. Accordingly, in order to induce
the Employer to enter into this Agreement, Executive covenants and agrees that: 
 (A) During the course of Executive’s employment by
Employer and for a period of twelve (12) months following the expiration or termination of his employment if the expiration or termination occurs before December 31, 2011 and until December 31, 2012 if the expiration or termination
occurs from the period January 1, 2012 to the expiration of the Agreement (the 

  

 Page 6 of 11 








 
“Restricted Period”), Executive shall not, in the Restricted Area, entertain or accept any offer of employment and shall not compete in any manner,
either directly or indirectly, including, without limitation, as an employee or independent contractor, investor, partner, shareholder, officer, director, principal, agent or trustee of any entity engaged in casino gaming, in the Restricted Area,
without the express written approval of the Employer; provided, however, that ownership of less than five percent (5%) of the shares of a publicly traded corporation engaged in casino gaming shall not be deemed to violate this paragraph.

 (B) During the Restricted Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any employee of the Employer or encourage
any such employee to leave such employment. 
  

	8.	Confidential Information. 

 Executive agrees to
receive Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) of the Employer in confidence, and not to disclose to others, assist others in the application of, or use for his own gain, such information, or any part thereof, unless and until it has
become public knowledge, has come into the possession of such other or others by legal and equitable means, or if required to do so by order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Executive further agrees that, upon termination of his employment with
the Employer, all documents, records, notebooks and similar repositories of or containing Confidential Information, including copies thereof, then in Executive’s possession, whether prepared by him or others, will be left with or returned to
the Employer. For purposes of this Paragraph 8, “Confidential Information” means information disclosed to Executive or known by Executive as a consequence of or arising from or out of his employment by the Employer, not generally known in
the industry in which the Employer is or may become engaged about the Employer’s Business, products, processes and/or services. Executive’s obligations under this Paragraph 8 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement
and Executive’s employment hereunder. 
  

	9.	Rights and Remedies Upon Breach. 

 Executive
acknowledges and agrees that a violation of any provision of Paragraph 7 or 8 of this Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”) shall cause irreparable harm to the Employer, and the Employer shall be entitled to specific performance of this
Agreement or an injunction without proof of special damages, together with costs and attorney’s fees incurred by the Employer in enforcing its rights under this Agreement. If Executive breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of any of the
Restrictive Covenants, the Employer shall have the following rights and remedies, each of which rights and remedies shall be independent of the other and severally enforceable, and all of which rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in
lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Employer under law or in equity: 
 (A) The right and remedy to have the Restrictive
Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction including, without limitation, the right to entry against Executive of restraining orders and injunctions (preliminary, mandatory, temporary and permanent), without proof of
special damages, against violations of such covenants, threatened or actual, and whether or not then continuing, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury to the Employer and that money
damages will not provide an adequate remedy to the Employer; and 
  

 Page 7 of 11 








 (B) The right and remedy to require Executive to
account for and pay over to the Employer all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by Executive as the result of any transaction constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants. The Employer may
set off any amounts due it under this Paragraph 9(B) against any amounts owed to Executive under Paragraph 4 or 6. 
  

	10.	Notice. 

 All notices hereunder shall be in writing.
Any notice, request, information, legal process, or other instrument to be given or served hereunder by any party to another shall be deemed given or served hereunder by any party to the other if either delivered personally or sent by prepaid
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested. Any such notice to the Employer shall be sent to the address set forth in the introductory paragraph of this Agreement, to the attention of the Chairman. Any such notice to Executive shall be
sent to his residential address as set forth in the introductory paragraph of this Agreement. Either party, through written notice to the other party, may change the address of notice as provided in this Paragraph. 
  

	11.	Entire Agreement; Modification. 

 Except as
otherwise provided herein, this Agreement supersedes and cancels any and all prior agreements between the parties hereto, express or implied, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto
with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be changed, modified, amended or altered except in a writing signed by both parties. 
  

	12.	Non-Waiver. 

 The failure or refusal of either party
to insist upon the strict performance of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right in any one or more instances or circumstances shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of such provision or right and shall in no way
effect such provision or right, nor shall such failure or refusal be deemed a custom or practice contrary to such provision or right. 
  

	13.	Severability. 

 If any paragraph, term or provision
of this Agreement shall be held or determined to be unenforceable, the balance of this Agreement shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect and unaffected by such holding or determination. In addition, in any such event, the parties agree
that it is their intention and agreement that any such paragraph, term or provision which is held or determined to be unenforceable as written, shall nonetheless be enforced and binding to the fullest extent permitted by law as though such
paragraph, term or provision had been written in such a manner to such an extent as to be enforceable under the circumstances. Without limitation of the foregoing, with respect to any Restrictive Covenant contained herein, if it is determined that
any such provision is excessive as to duration or scope, it is intended that it nonetheless be enforced for such shorter duration or without such narrower scope as will render it enforceable. 
  

 Page 8 of 11 









	14.	Governing Law. 

 This Agreement shall be governed
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut and such laws of the Tribe as may be applicable. Insofar as there is a conflict as to the applicable law, Connecticut law shall apply. 
  

	15.	Limited Waiver of Sovereign Immunity. 

 The Employer
hereby waives its sovereign immunity from suit for claims by the Executive for the enforcement of this Agreement and any remedies for breach thereof under Connecticut law or the laws of the Tribe. Nothing herein shall limit the Executive’s
right to proceed with any claims otherwise allowed under the laws of the Tribe. The Employer hereby consents to personal jurisdiction and venue in any court of the State of Connecticut, any federal court sitting in the State of Connecticut and the
Mohegan Tribe Gaming Disputes Court and hereby waives any claim that it may have that such court is an inconvenient forum for the purposes of any proceeding arising under this Agreement as aforesaid and, with respect to a proceeding in a court of
the State of Connecticut or a federal court sitting in the State of Connecticut, any requirement that tribal remedies must be exhausted. 
  

	16.	Dispute Resolution. 

 Except as otherwise provided
herein, whenever during the term of this Agreement, any disagreement or dispute arises between the parties as to the interpretation of this Agreement or any rights or obligations arising hereunder, including the licensing of Executive by the Tribal
Gaming Commission, such matters shall be resolved, whenever possible, by meeting and conferring. Any party may request such a meeting by giving notice to the other, in which case such other party shall make itself available within seven
(7) days thereafter. If such matters cannot be resolved within ten (10) days after such meeting, either party may demand a resolution by binding arbitration in accordance with the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration
Association (or any successor thereto to the extent not inconsistent herewith), upon notice to the other party of its intention to do so. The parties agree that in any such arbitration each party shall be entitled to discovery as provided by the
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. All hearings shall be conducted in Hartford County, Connecticut within fifteen (15) days after the arbitrator is selected and shall be conducted in his or her presence. The decision of the arbitrator will be
final and binding on the parties. The costs and expenses of the arbitration shall be shared equally by the parties. 
  

	17.	Gaming Disputes Court Jurisdiction. 

 The parties
agree that should any dispute arise under this Agreement or for the enforcement of the arbitration provisions in Paragraph 16, the Mohegan Tribe Gaming Disputes Court shall be used as a forum only if a state or federal court denies jurisdiction, to
(a) enforce the requirement that the parties submit disputes to arbitration as required by Paragraph 16 and (b) enforce the arbitration decision as provided in Paragraph 16.

	18.	Headings. 

 The headings of this Agreement are
inserted for convenience only and shall not be considered in construction of the provisions hereof. 
  

	19.	Assignment and Successors; Binding Effect. 

 The
rights and obligations of the Employer under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the successors of the Employer and may be assigned by the Employer, for all or any part of the term hereof, provided that the
Employer shall continue to be financially responsible to Executive hereunder. Executive shall have no right to assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the rights, nor to delegate any of the duties created by this Agreement without
prior written consent of the Employer. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Employer, its successors and assigns, and Executive, his heirs and legal representatives. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Employer has caused this Agreement to be executed by the Chairman of its Management Board, duly authorized, and Executive has
affixed his signature hereto, as of the date and year first above written.
