4.2 Effect of Termination 

4.2.1 In the event of any termination under Subsection 4.1 of this Agreement, Employee (or, in the event of Employee’s death, his
estate) shall be entitled to receive compensation accrued and payable to him as of the date of termination or death.

Employee’s employment is terminated pursuant to Subsections 4.1.4 or 4.1.6, Employer shall cause to be paid to Employee a severance amount equal to twelve (12) months of Employee’s Base Salary as of the date of such termination.
Subject to Subsection 4.2.6, severance payments by Employer to or on behalf of Employee shall be made on Employer’s regularly scheduled paydays over such twelve (12) month period and be subject to withholding for income tax, social
security and any other applicable federal or state employment taxes. This severance pay obligation is expressly conditional upon Employee executing a separation agreement and release of claims in a form satisfactory to the Employer. Employee
acknowledges that this severance pay obligation shall serve as good and sufficient consideration to support the restrictive covenants contained in Section 6. 







 4.2.3 If Employee’s employment is terminated pursuant to Subsection 4.1.7, Employer

and sufficient consideration to support the restrictive covenants contained in Section 6. 
 4.2.5 No termination of
Employee’s employment or this Agreement shall affect any obligation of a party hereunder which, by its terms, expressly survives such termination including, without limitation, Employee’s obligations under Sections 5 and 6 hereof. 

4.2.6 The Employer, at its option, may elect to satisfy its obligations under this Section 4 by a lump sum payment to Employee.

 5.1 Employee
hereby warrants, covenants and agrees that Employee shall not directly or indirectly use or disclose any confidential information, trade secrets, or works for hire, whether in written, verbal, electronic or model form, at any time or in any manner,
except as required in the conduct of Employer’s or its Affiliate’s business or as expressly authorized by Employer in writing. There is no requirement that confidential information be marked with any legend or notation confirming its
confidential status to be afforded protection under this paragraph. Whenever confidential information is incorporated into a new document, electronic 







 
file, notes or other tangible media, such media shall become and be construed to be confidential information, subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Employee
shall take all necessary and available precautions to protect against the unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, trade secrets, or works for hire. Employee acknowledges and agrees that such confidential information, trade secrets, or
works for hire are the sole and exclusive property of Employer or its Affiliates. 
 5.2 Except in the performance of his duties
detailed in Section 1, Employee shall not remove from Employer’s premises any confidential information, trade secrets, works for hire or any other documents pertaining to Employer’s or its Affiliate’s businesses, except in the
normal course of Employee’s conduct of his duties or unless expressly authorized by Employer in writing. Furthermore, Employee specifically covenants and agrees not to make any duplicates, copies, or reconstructions of such materials and that,
if any such duplicates, copies, or reconstructions are made, they shall become the property of Employer upon their creation. 
 5.3
Upon termination of Employee’s employment with Employer for any reason, Employee shall turn over to Employer the originals and all copies of any and all papers, documents and things, including information stored for use in or with computers
and software, all files, Rolodex cards, phone books, notes, price lists, customer contracts, bids, customer lists, notebooks, books, memoranda, drawings, computer disks or drives, or other documents: (i) made, compiled by, or delivered to
Employee concerning any customer served by Employer or its Affiliate or any product, apparatus, or process manufactured, used, developed or investigated by Employer or its Affiliate; (ii) containing any confidential information, trade secret or
work for hire; or (iii) otherwise relating to Employee’s performance of duties under this Agreement. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that all such documents are the sole and exclusive property of Employer or its Affiliates. 

5.4 Employee hereby warrants, covenants and agrees that Employee shall not disclose to Employer or any Affiliate, officer, director,
employee or agent of Employer or its Affiliate, any proprietary or confidential information or property, including but not limited to any trade secret, formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process, which Employee is
prohibited by contract, or otherwise, to disclose to Employer (the “Restricted Information”). In the event Employer or its Affiliate requests Restricted Information from Employee, Employee shall advise Employer or its Affiliate that
the information requested is Restricted Information and may not be disclosed by Employee. 
 5.5 The obligations of this
Section 5 are continuing and shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer for any reason. Nothing herein shall prevent Employee from consulting with accountants and attorneys or from disclosing information that is
public 
 6. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. 

6.1 Non-Compete. Employee agrees that, while Employee is employed by the Employer and during the Restricted Period and in the
Restricted Area (as defined below), Employee shall not, without the Employer’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly, as a principal, employee, consultant, partner, or stockholder of, or in any other capacity with, any








 
business enterprise (other than in Employee’s capacity as a holder of not more than one percent (1%) of the combined voting power of the outstanding stock of a publicly held company),
engage in direct or indirect competition with the Business of the Employer or any of its Affiliates. For purposes of this Subsection 6.1, the Employer’s “Business” shall mean (i) gaming establishments, (ii) lodging
establishments, (iii) restaurants and other food and/or beverage establishments, and (iv) nightlife establishments. 
 6.2
Restricted Period. For the purposes of this Subsection 6.2, the Employee and the Employer agree that the “Restricted Period” means the period from the termination or cessation of Employee’s employment through and
including: 
 6.2.1 In the event of termination pursuant to Subsection 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.1.3, or 4.1.7, or 4.1.8, the Restricted Period
shall be six (6) months after termination of employment. 
 6.2.2 In the event of termination pursuant to Subsection 4.1.4,
4.1.5 or 4.1.6, the Restricted Period shall be twelve (12) months after termination of employment. 
 6.3 Restricted
Area. For the purposes of this Subsection 6.3, the Employee and Employer agree that “Restricted Area” means Clark County, Nevada. The Employee and Employer expressly acknowledge as reasonable and agree that the Restricted Area
is appropriate considering, among other compelling factors, the nature and scope of the Employer’s Business, the scope of Employer’s venues, revenue sources and audience, the limited number of competitive entities and the extremely narrow
definition of the Business. 
 6.4 Confidential Information. Employee acknowledges that Employer will provide and expose
Employee to certain confidential information, trade secrets, inventions, works of authorship, business relationships and customer relationships possessed by and/or developed by or for Employer or its Affiliates at a considerable investment of time
and expense, such that Employer and/or its Affiliates would be irreparably harmed if the Employee were to improperly use and/or disclose such knowledge with respect to competitors, potential competitors, customers and other parties. Further,
Employee acknowledges that maintaining strong customer relationships is essential to Employer’s and Affiliates’ businesses and that such client relationships are special and unique and required considerable investment of time and funds to
develop. Given Employee’s senior position with Employer and relationship with Affiliates, Employee understands that he will be identified in the mind of customers with the products and services offered by Employer and/or its Affiliates and will
have established personal relationships with customers and accumulated important information about them, such that there is a substantial risk of Employee appropriating Employer’s and/or its Affiliates’ customer goodwill and/or otherwise
compromising customer relations, resulting in irreparable harm to Employer and/or its Affiliates. Confidential information may exist in electronic, written, visual, verbal or audio form, or some combination thereof, and its form does not affect
whether the information is within the scope of the definition of confidential information set forth in this paragraph. There is no requirement that Employer’s confidential information be marked with any legend or notation confirming its
confidential status to be afforded protection under this paragraph. Whenever confidential information is incorporated into a new document, electronic file, notes or other tangible media, such media shall become and be construed to be confidential
information, subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 







 6.5 Non-Solicitation of Employees. Employee hereby further covenants and agrees
that, for one (1) year following Employee’s cessation of employment with Employer, for whatever reason, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to induce or solicit or attempt to solicit the employment, hiring or
engagement of any employee of Employer or its Affiliates, or actually employ, hire or engage any such employee for Employee’s own purposes or on behalf of any other person or business entity in competition in any manner whatsoever with the
principal business activities of Employer and/or its Affiliates. 
 6.6 Non-Solicitation of Clients; Non-Interference.
Employee also covenants and agrees that, for one (1) year following Employee’s cessation of any continued employment with Employer, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly: (i) induce or attempt to induce or solicit or attempt to
solicit any customer of Employer or Affiliate to cease doing business with Employer and/or its Affiliates or otherwise move their business elsewhere; or (ii) interfere or attempt to interfere with the business relationships between any customer
and Employer and/or its Affiliates, either for Employee’s own purposes or on behalf of any other person or business entity in competition in any manner whatsoever with the principal business activities of Employer and/or its Affiliates, in or
about any market in which Employer and/or its Affiliates. Employee and Employer also agree that the fact that any particular customer does not exclusively utilize the services or products of the Employer and/or Affiliate, i.e., the customer
contracts with third parties for the provision of the same services or products offered by the Employer and/or its Affiliates, shall have no bearing on the enforcement of this subsection. 

6.7 Non-Disparagement. 

6.7.1 Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employer, Owner and their Affiliates have a reputation for offering high quality services
to the public, and that Employer, Owner and their Affiliates desire to maintain their reputation and receive positive publicity. Accordingly, Employee agrees that he will not directly or indirectly make any oral, written or recorded private or
public statement or comment that is disparaging or defamatory of Employer, Owner and their Affiliates or any of their respective owners, officers, directors, shareholders, employees and/or agents. Disparaging statements include, without limitation,
any and all statements or implications which cast Employer, Owner and their Affiliates or any of their respective owners, officers, directors, shareholders or employees in a negative light. 

6.7.2 Employer, Owner and their Affiliates agree that they, and any of their respective owners, officers, directors, or shareholders,
will not directly or indirectly make any oral, written or recorded private or public statement or comment that is disparaging, or defamatory of Employee. Disparaging statements include, without limitation, any and all statements or implications
which cast Employee in a negative light. 
 6.7.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsections 6.7.1 and 6.7.2 above, Employee,
Employer, Owner, and their Affiliates and any of their respective owners, officers, directors and shareholders are permitted to respond truthfully and fairly in any court, government, regulatory, legal or administrative proceeding, or in response to
any request or inquiry by his employer, including but not limited to requests arising under that company’s ethical guidelines, compliance committee, code of conduct or reporting requirements of the public stock exchange on which the
company’s publically traded stock is traded and the rules and regulations of any governmental entity including the Securities and Exchange Commission, and any gaming regulatory body. 







 6.7.4 The obligations of the Parties regarding disparaging remarks shall automatically
terminate five (5) years from any termination of Employee’s employment. 
 6.8 Employee hereby acknowledges that all duties
performed hereunder, were specifically ordered or commissioned by Employer (“Works”); that the Works shall constitute a work-made-for-hire as defined in the United States Copyright Act of 1976, United States Code, Title 17, §101, et
seq; that Employer is and shall be the author of said work-made-for-hire and the owner of all rights in and to the Works throughout the universe, in perpetuity and in all languages, for all now known or hereafter existing uses, media and forms,
including, without limitation, the copyrights therein and thereto throughout the universe for the Term; and that Employer shall have the right to make such changes therein and such uses thereof as it may deem necessary or desirable. Works shall
include, but not be limited to, all material and information created by Employee in the course of or as a result of Employee’s employment with Employer which is fixed in a tangible medium of expressions, including, but not limited to, notes,
drawings, memoranda, correspondence, documents, records, notebooks, flow charts, and source and object codes, regardless of the medium in which they are fixed. To the extent that the Works are not recognized as a work-made-for-hire, Employee hereby
assigns, transfers and conveys to Employer, without reservation, all of Employee’s right, title and interest throughout the universe in perpetuity in the Works, including, without limitation, all rights of copyright and copyright renewal in
said Works or any part thereof. Employee will take whatever steps and do whatever acts Employer requests, including, but not limited to, placement of Employer’s proper copyright notice on such Works to secure or aid in securing copyright
protection and will cooperate with Employer’s, or its nominees’, efforts in filing applications to register claims of copyright in such Works. Employee will not reproduce, distribute, display publicly, or perform publicly, alone or in
combination with any data processing or network system, any Works of Employer without the written permission from Employer. 
 6.9
Employee hereby further covenants and agrees that the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 6 are reasonable as to duration, terms and geographical area and that they protect the legitimate interests of Employer, Owner and/or
their Affiliates, impose no undue hardship on Employee, and are not injurious to the public. Employee further agrees that the duration (time period) associated with the restrictive covenants in this Section 6 will be tolled during any period of
noncompliance. Therefore, should the Employer be compelled to seek injunctive relief, the Parties envision the court’s order for compliance to provide for a complete period of time, whichever is applicable to the given dispute, and not merely
the remaining portion of the applicable time period. Further, in the event that any of the restrictions and limitations contained in this Section 6 are deemed to exceed the time, geographic or other limitations permitted by Nevada law, the
Parties agree that a court of competent jurisdiction shall revise or otherwise “blue-pencil” any offending provisions so as to bring this Section 6 within the maximum time, geographical or other limitations permitted by Nevada law.








 7. REMEDIES. 

Employee acknowledges that Employer and/or its Affiliates have and will continue to deliver, provide and expose Employee to certain knowledge, information,
practices, and procedures possessed or developed by or for Employer or its Affiliates at a considerable investment of time and expense, which are protected as confidential and which are essential for carrying out Employer’s or its
Affiliate’s business in a highly competitive market. Employee also acknowledges that Employee will be exposed to confidential Information, trade secrets, Works of Authorship, inventions and business relationships possessed or developed by or
for Employer or its Affiliates, and that Employer or its Affiliates would be irreparably harmed if Employee were to improperly use or disclose such items to competitors, potential competitors or other parties. Employee further acknowledges that the
protection of Employer’s and its Affiliates’ customers and businesses is essential, and understands and agrees that Employer’s and its Affiliates’ relationships with its customers and its employees are special and unique and have
required a considerable investment of time and funds to develop, and that any loss of or damage to any such relationship will result in irreparable harm. Consequently, Employee covenants and agrees that any violation by Employee of Sections 5 or 6
shall entitle Employer and/or its Affiliates to immediate injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction and to pursue all other remedies available by law, including financial damages. Employee further agrees that no cause of action for
recovery of materials or for breach of any of Employee’s representations, warranties or covenants shall accrue until Employer or its Affiliate has actual notice of such breach.

the National Academy of Arbitrators. The cost of this list and filing fee will be paid by the Employer. The arbitrator shall be selected by the Parties by alternately striking names from the list. The moving Party shall strike the first name. This
process shall be completed within thirty (30) calendar days of the date the written dispute was served on the opposing Party and/or the subsequent date arbitration is ordered by a court, whichever is sooner. The arbitrator may grant injunctions
or other relief in such dispute, but may not award punitive or exemplary damages unless such limitation is prohibited by law. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be
entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court having jurisdiction, and the Parties hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the Nevada District Court in and for the County of Clark for this purpose. 

9.2 Each Party shall be responsible for his or its own attorneys’ fees and costs, in connection with any arbitration held pursuant
to this Section 9. Employee acknowledges that such costs may be greater than litigation in a court of law. 
 9.3 All documents
submitted as part of any arbitration that contain or refer to any confidential information as detailed in Section 5, including without limitation this Agreement, shall be treated as though filed under seal in a court of law. Accordingly such
documents shall be (i) submitted confidentially, (ii) kept confidential by the Parties hereto and the arbitrator, and (iii) returned to the submitting Party promptly after the arbitration award becomes final. 

9.4 In accordance with NRS 597.995, Employee affirmatively authorizes that any dispute arising between the Parties be submitted to
arbitration other than violations of Sections 5 and 6 in which a Party may concurrently pursue injunctive relief pursuant to Section 7. Employee expressly acknowledges that by voluntarily agreeing to this Arbitration provision Employee is
waiving important rights, including the right to a jury trial. 







 10. GENERAL PROVISIONS. 

10.1 Assignment. Employee shall not have any right to delegate or transfer any duty or obligation to be performed by him
hereunder to any third party, or to assign or transfer the right, if any, to receive payments hereunder, except that Employee’s estate shall be entitled to any payments hereunder in the event of Employee’s death. In consideration of the
compensation and benefits received by Employee pursuant to this Agreement, five percent (5%) of which amounts are being paid specifically to support Employer’s right of assignment hereunder, but such allocation is not intended to be
construed as a measure of the value of said right, Employee expressly agrees that the Employer’s rights and Employee’s employment hereunder may be assigned by the Employer to any successor to the business of the Employer on the condition
that the assignee agree in writing to assume all of the obligations of the Employer hereunder.  
 10.2
Amendments; Waivers. This Agreement may be amended only by agreement in writing of both Parties. No waiver of any provision nor consent to any exception to the terms of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by
the Party entitled to the benefit of such provision to be waived or excepted and then only to the specific purpose, extent and instance so provided. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of any Party to exercise any right, remedy, power or
privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver (express or implied) of that right, remedy, power or privilege. 
 10.3
Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith, including any
understanding or agreement, whether formal or informal, between Employee and the Employer or any employees, directors, agents, managers or representatives thereof referenced in the recitals hereto. 

10.4 Governing Law. This Agreement and the legal relations between the Parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Nevada applicable to contracts made and performed in such state, without reference to any conflict of laws provisions. Only in the event any dispute, difference, controversy or claim is not within the arbitration
provisions of Section 9, including disputes detailed in Subsection 9.4 arising under Section 6, do the Parties agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Clark County, State of Nevada. The Parties hereto waive any other venue to
which they may be entitled by virtue of domicile, residence, or other reason. 
 10.5 Construction. The terms and conditions
of this Agreement shall be construed as a whole according to their fair meaning and not strictly for or against any Party. The Parties acknowledge that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting
Party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to give effect to the purpose of the Parties 

10.6 Severability. While the provisions contained in this Agreement are considered by the Parties to be reasonable in all
circumstances, it is recognized that provisions of the nature in question may fail for technical reasons and, accordingly, it is hereby agreed and declared that if any one or more of such provisions shall, either by itself or themselves or taken
with others, be adjudged to be invalid as exceeding what is reasonable in all circumstances for the protection of the interests of the Parties, but would be valid if any particular restriction or provisions were








 
deleted or restricted or limited in a particular manner, then the said provisions shall apply with such deletion, restriction, limitation, reduction, curtailment, or modification as may be
necessary to make them valid and effective. If any one or more provisions, clauses, paragraphs, sections, subclauses or subparagraphs contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the same
shall not affect any other provision, clause, paragraph, section, subclause or subparagraph of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable provision, clause, paragraph, section, subclause
or subparagraph had never been contained herein. 
 11. REVIEW BY PARTIES AND THEIR LEGAL COUNSEL. 

11.1 The Parties represent that they have read this Agreement and acknowledge that they have discussed its contents with their
respective legal counsel or have been afforded the opportunity to avail themselves of the opportunity to the extent they each wished to do so. 

11.2 Employee has been advised by the Employer that he should consider seeking the advice of counsel in connection with the execution
of this Agreement, and Employee has had an opportunity to do so. Employee has read and understands this Agreement and has sought the advice of counsel to the extent he has determined appropriate. 

11.3 Each person executing this Agreement in a representative capacity represents and warrants that he or she has full power and
authority to execute this Agreement on such entities’ behalf and that this Agreement is binding and enforceable against such entity.
