 Exhibit 10.1 

DAVE & BUSTER’S SELECT EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN 

This Select Executive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) is amended and restated by Dave & Buster’s Management Corporation,
Inc., effective, unless otherwise provided for herein, as of January 1, 2017. 
 ARTICLE I 

PURPOSE; FINANCING PLAN BENEFITS 

1.1 Purpose. The purpose of this Plan is to provide a select group of management or highly compensated Employees of the Employer
with certain deferred compensation benefits as described herein. The Employer intends that the Plan shall constitute an “unfunded plan” for purposes of the Code and Title I of ERISA, as amended, and that any Participant or Beneficiary
shall have the status of an unsecured general creditor of the Employer as to the Plan and any trust fund that may be established by the Employer, or asset identified specifically by the Employer, as a reserve for the discharge of its obligations
under the Plan. 
 1.2 Financing Plan Benefits. All Benefits under this Plan shall be paid or provided directly by the
Employer. Such Benefits shall be general obligations of the Employer which shall not require the segregation of any funds or property therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the discretion of the Employer, the Employer’s obligations
hereunder may be satisfied from a grantor trust established by the Employer, the terms of which will be substantially similar to the terms of the model trust issued by the Internal Revenue Service in Revenue Procedure
92-64, or from an insurance contract or contracts owned by the Employer. The assets of any such trust and any such insurance policy shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general funds of the
Employer, shall be considered solely a means to assist the Employer to meet its contractual obligations under this Plan and shall not create a funded account or security interest for the benefit of any Participant under this Plan. All such assets
shall be subject to the claims of the general creditors of the Employer in the event the Employer is Insolvent. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive a payment from the Employer under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than
the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Employer. If a trust is established as provided for in this Section 1.2, earnings and/or losses of the trust attributable to amounts credited to a Participant’s Account shall increase or,
if applicable, decrease such Participant’s Account for purposes of determining the Participant’s Benefits payable hereunder, and each Participant shall be given the opportunity to direct the investment of the trust’s assets
attributable to his Account among investment options selected by the Employer from time to time. Any such investment election by a Participant shall be subject to the terms of the trust and the approval of the trustee thereof.

shall be entitled to participate in the Plan for the immediately following Period of Service. In addition, the Administrator may, during a Period of Service, designate an individual who has become an Employee during that Period of Service as

Designated Employee for the remaining portion of that Period of Service. An Employee shall be eligible to receive a benefit hereunder if such Employee is a Designated Employee or has been designated as an eligible Employee pursuant to the preceding
sentences of this Section 3.1 and has, in either case, entered into a Deferred Compensation/Participation Agreement with the Employer in accordance with Section 4.2 and/or for Periods of Service prior to calendar year 2006,

 3.2 Cessation of Participation. A Participant will cease to be a Participant as of
the earlier of (i) the date on which the Plan terminates or (ii) the date on which he ceases to be an eligible Employee under Section 3.1. 

ARTICLE IV 

PARTICIPATION, PLAN BENEFITS AND VESTING 

4.1 General. Subject to the vesting provisions of Section 4.5 hereof and the provisions of Article V, the Benefits to which a
Participant and, if applicable, his Beneficiary shall be entitled under the Plan will consist of Deferred Compensation and Employer Contributions credited to such Participant’s Account, plus earnings thereon and less losses allocable thereto,
if any, attributable to the investment of such amounts pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof. 
 4.2 Participation Election;
Deferred Compensation Elections. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise prior to a Period of Service, the maximum percentage of Compensation that an Eligible Employee may elect to defer for a Period of Service shall not
exceed fifty percent (50%). Subject, for Periods of Service prior to calendar year 2006, to a Participant’s Special Deferred Compensation Election with respect to bonuses as described in Section 4.3, before the beginning of each Period of
Service for which Compensation is earned by an Eligible Employee, the Employee must elect in writing the percentage of his Compensation that will be deferred for such period by executing a Deferred Compensation/Participation Agreement in such form
as the Administrator shall prescribe. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, for the first Period of Service in which an Employee becomes Eligible to participate in the Plan, the Eligible Employee may elect within 30 days after the date the
Employee becomes Eligible to participate in the Plan to defer Compensation with respect to Compensation for services performed subsequent to the election. From time to time during each Period of Service for which a Participant has executed a
Deferred Compensation/Participation Agreement, the Employer will credit the amount of the Participant’s Deferred Compensation to his Account. If an Eligible Employee does not execute a Deferred Compensation/Participation Agreement for a
particular Period of Service in accordance with this Section 4.2, he may not participate in the Plan for that Period of Service with respect to a Deferred Compensation Election, but he may make a separate Special Deferred Compensation Election,
for Periods of Service prior to calendar year 2006, with respect to a bonus in accordance with Section 4.3. Thereafter, he may elect to make a Deferred Compensation Election and participate in the Plan with respect to future Periods of Service,
if he is then eligible to participate in the Plan pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof, by executing a Deferred Compensation/Participation Agreement and electing to defer a percentage of Compensation prior to any such future Period of Service. 

4.3 Special Deferred Compensation Election for Bonuses. For Periods of Service prior to calendar year 2006, in addition to the Deferred
Compensation Election described in Section 4.2, an Eligible Employee may make a Special Deferred Compensation Election with respect to a discretionary bonus payable to an Eligible Employee for any Period of Service, provided that an Eligible
Employee makes such election prior to the date the discretionary bonus is declared by executing a Deferred Compensation/Participation Agreement setting forth his Special Deferred Compensation Election. An Eligible Employee may elect to defer a
percentage or a stated dollar amount of a bonus as part of his Special Deferred Compensation Election or may elect not to defer any portion of his bonus. If a Special Deferred Compensation Election is not made by a Participant pursuant to this
Section 4.3 and he has made a Deferred Compensation Election pursuant to Section 4.2 for a particular Period of Service, the rate a deferral elected in that Deferred Compensation Election shall determine the portion of his bonus to be
deferred for that Period of Service. No Special Deferred Compensation Elections may be made for any Period of Service after calendar year 2005. 

  
 5 













 4.4 Employer Contributions. The Employer may credit each Participant’s Account
from time to time with amounts that represent Employer Contributions, which will be based on the Participant’s Deferred Compensation Election. Whether Employer Contributions are credited to a Participant’s Account for a particular Period
of Service shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Employer based, among other things, on the Employer’s profitability, and such contributions shall be credited only to Participants who are Employees on the last day of the particular
Period of Service for which the contributions are credited. The value of such amounts (as determined under Section 4.1) will be used, along with the Participant’s Deferred Compensation, to determine the Participant’s Benefits as
specified herein. 
 4.5 Vesting. In the event of a Participant’s termination of employment, he will be entitled to receive: 

 

	 	(a)	 100% of the portion of his Account attributable to his Deferred Compensation, including the earnings thereon if
such amounts are invested pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof; and 


  

	 	(b)	 the vested portion of his Account attributable to Employer Contributions based on his years of service as
determined below and as otherwise provided below, including the earnings thereon if such amounts are invested pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof. 



Each Participant will vest in the portion of his Account attributable to Employer Contributions at the rate of 20% per year for each calendar
year during which he performs 1,000 hours of service for the Employer beginning with the calendar year in which the Participant first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a Participant will become
fully vested in his Account (i) in the event of his termination of employment on or after his Normal Retirement Age, or by reason of his Disability or death and (ii) upon a Change of Control, subject to the conditions contained in
Section 2.6 applicable to determining whether a Change of Control has occurred with respect to a Participant. 
 ARTICLE V 

DISTRIBUTIONS 
 5.1
Payment of Benefits. The amount credited to a Participant’s Account pursuant to Article IV hereof, to the extent vested pursuant to Section 4.5, shall be payable to the Participant or, if applicable, to his Beneficiary in accordance
with the provisions of this Article V. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.8, payment of any Benefit under the Plan shall be made as soon as administratively practicable, following the occurrence of the event causing the Benefit to become
payable as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, but not later than sixty (60) days following the occurrence of the event. 

5.2 Retirement, Disability, or Death. Upon termination of the Participant’s employment with the Employer on or
after his Normal Retirement Age, or by reason of his Disability or death, the Employer will pay the full value of his Account to him in the form of a single sum cash payment. 

  
 6 













 5.3 Other Termination of Employment. In the event the Participant’s employment
with the Employer terminates for any reason other than retirement on or after Normal Retirement Age, death, or Disability, the value of the vested portion of his Account will be paid in the form of a single sum cash payment. 

5.4 Timing of Certain Payments. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, Benefits shall be paid to Participants
prior to the time such Benefits otherwise would be payable hereunder if the Committee in good faith determines that either of the following conditions or events has occurred: 
  

	 	(a)	 A Change of Control of the Employer, subject to the conditions contains in Section 2.6 applicable to
determining whether a Change of Control has occurred with respect to the payment of a Participant. 


  

	 	(b)	 An unforeseeable emergency of the Participant. An unforeseeable emergency is a severe financial hardship to the
Participant resulting from a sudden and unexpected illness or accident of the Participant, the Participant’s spouse, or a dependent (as defined in Section 152(a) of the Code) of the Participant, loss of the Participant’s property due
to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. An unforeseeable emergency will exist only if, as determined under regulations issued by the Internal
Revenue Service under Code Section 409A, the amount distributed to a Participant on account of an unforeseeable emergency does not exceed the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy such emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes reasonably
anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to
the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause a severe financial hardship). 


 5.5 Form of
Payment. The Participant’s Benefits shall be paid in the form of a single sum payment in cash, or for Periods of Service prior to calendar year 2006, in accordance with the installment form of payment, if applicable, elected by the
Participant in his Deferred Compensation/Participation Agreement. 
 5.6 Designation of Beneficiary. Each Participant must designate a
Beneficiary to receive his Benefits in the event of his death, by completing his Deferred Compensation/Participation Agreement and filing it with the Administrator. The Administrator will recognize the most recent written Beneficiary designation on
file prior to a Participant’s death. If a designated Beneficiary is not living at the time of the Participant’s death, then the Administrator will pay Participant’s Benefits to the Participant’s personal representative, executor,
or administrator, as specified by the appropriate legal jurisdiction. Any such payment to the Participant’s Beneficiary or, if applicable, to his personal representative, executor or administrator shall operate as a complete discharge of all
obligations of the Administrator, the Committee and the Employer to the extent of the payment so made. 

  
 7 













 5.7 Special Code Section 409A Related Election Rights for 2005. Notwithstanding
any provision of the Plan to the contrary, each Participant may elect, during a reasonable period designated by the Employer for purposes of this Section 5.7 prior to December 31, 2005, to cancel his outstanding Deferred Compensation
Election and/or Special Deferred Compensation Election for 2005 as provided for in Notice 2005-1, Q&A-20 issued by the Internal Revenue Service. All elections made
by Participants pursuant to this Section 5.7, including earnings, if any on the amounts deferred under the Deferred Compensation Elections being cancelled, shall be in writing on a form authorized by the Company for such purpose and all
Benefits payable as a result of the elections made by Participants pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall be paid in a single sum payment, in cash, as soon as administratively practicable following the date of such elections, but no later than
December 31, 2005. If a Participant elects to cancel a deferred compensation election pursuant to this Section 5.7, no Employer Contributions will be credited to the Participant’s Account with respect to the amounts associated with
that election. 
 5.8 Deferred Payments for Certain Key Employees. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in the Plan to the
contrary, if, upon the advice of its counsel, the Employer determines that (a) at the time of the Participant’s separation from service with the Employer (as described in Section 5.9), he is a “specified employee” as defined
in Section 409A of the Code and (b) that any payments to be provided to the Participant under the Plan are or may become subject to the additional tax under Section 409A(a)(l)(B) of the Code or any other taxes or penalties imposed
under Section 409A of the Code (“409A Taxes”) if paid at the time such payments are otherwise required under the Plan then such payments shall be delayed until the earlier of the date that is six months after the date of the
Participant’s separation from service or the Participant’s death. The provisions of this Section 5.8 shall only apply to the minimum extent required to avoid the Participant’s incurrence of any 409A Taxes. 

5.9 Section 409A Separation from Service. Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Plan to the contrary, no amount shall be
paid pursuant to the Plan relating to a Participant’s termination of employment with the Employer unless such termination of employment constitutes a “separation from service” (as such term is defined under Section 409A of the
Code).

and for all purposes. In addition, the Committee may employ attorneys, accountants, and other professional advisors to assist the Committee and the Administrator in their administration of the Plan. The Employer shall pay the reasonable fees of any
such advisor employed by the Committee. The Administrator shall implement the actions and decisions of the Committee regarding the administration of the Plan. To the extent permitted by law, the Administrator, any member of the Committee and any

 8 














	 	(a)	 In the event that Benefits are not paid to a Participant (or to his Beneficiary in the case of the
Participant’s death) and such claimant believes he is entitled to receive Benefits, then a written claim must be made to the Administrator within sixty days from the date payments are refused. The Administrator will review the written claim,
and if the claim is denied in whole or in part, the Administrator will provide in writing within ninety days of receipt of the claim the specific reasons for such denial, reference to the pertinent provisions of the Plan upon which the denial is
based, and a description of any additional material or information necessary to perfect the claim. Such written notice will further indicate the additional steps to be taken by the claimant if a further review of the claim denial is desired,
including a statement that the claimant may (i) request a review upon written application to the Committee, (ii) review pertinent plan documents, and (iii) submit issues and comments in writing. If notice of the denial is not
furnished in accordance with the above procedure, the claim shall be deemed denied and the claimant shall be permitted to proceed with the review procedure described in paragraph (b) below. A claim will be deemed denied if the Administrator
fails to take any action with the said ninety-day period. 


  

	 	(b)	 A request by the claimant for a review of the denied claim must be delivered to the Committee within sixty days
after receipt by such claimant of written notification of the denial of such claim (or the date that the claim is deemed denied). The Committee shall, not later than sixty days after receipt of a request for a review, decide concerning the claim. A
written statement stating the decision on review, the specific reasons for the decision, and the specific provisions of the Plan on which the decision is based shall be mailed or delivered to the claimant within such
sixty-day period. If the decision on review is not furnished within the appropriate time, the claim shall be deemed denied on review. 



All communications from the Administrator and the Committee to the claimant shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
claimant. All interpretations, determinations and decisions by the Administrator and by the Committee in respect of any matter hereunder will be final, conclusive, and binding upon the Employer, Participants, Beneficiaries, and all other persons
claiming an interest in the Plan. 
 6.3 Arbitration. If the claimant continues to dispute the denial of Benefits following the
procedures described in Section 6.2, then the claimant may submit the dispute to a board of arbitration for final arbitration. Such board will consist of one member selected by the claimant, one member selected by the Committee, and a third
member selected by the first two members. The board will operate under generally recognized arbitration rules. The claimant, the Committee, and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns will be bound by the decision
of such board with respect to any controversy submitted to it for determination. 
 6.4 Cost of Administration. The cost of this Plan
and the expenses of administering the Plan shall be paid by the Employer.

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

8.1 Rights Against Employer. The Plan shall not be deemed to be a consideration for, or an inducement for, the employment of any
Employee by the Employer. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to give any Employee the right to be retained in the service of the Employer or to interfere with the right of the Employer to discharge any Employee at any time, without regard
to the effect such discharge may have on any rights under the Plan. 
 8.2 Action Taken in Good Faith. To
the extent permitted by ERISA, the Administrator, the members of the Committee and each employee and officer of the Employer who have duties and responsibilities with respect to the establishment or administration of the Plan shall be fully
protected with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by them in good faith. 
 8.3 Indemnification of Employees and
Directors. The Employer hereby indemnifies the Administrator, each member of the Committee and each other employee and officer of the Employer who are delegated responsibilities under the Plan against any and all liabilities and expenses,
including attorney’s fees, actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any threatened, pending or completed legal action or judicial or administrative proceeding to which they may be a party, or may be threatened to be made a
party, by reason of membership on the Committee or other delegation of responsibilities, except with regard to any matters as to which they shall be adjudged in such action or proceeding to be liable for gross negligence or willful misconduct in

 8.4 Payment Due an Incompetent. If the Administrator shall find that any person to
whom any payment is payable under the Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of mental or physical illness, accident, or death, or is a minor, any payment due (unless a prior claim therefor shall have been made by a duly appointed guardian,
committee or other legal representative) may be paid to the spouse, a child, a parent, a brother or sister or any person deemed by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, to have incurred expenses for such person otherwise entitled to payment, in
such manner and proportions as the Administrator may determine. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Employer under this Plan, and the Employer shall have no further obligation to see to the application of any
money so paid. 
 8.5 Spendthrift Clause. No right, title or interest of any kind in the Plan shall be transferable or assignable by
any Participant or Beneficiary or be subject to alienation, anticipation, encumbrance, garnishment, attachment, execution or levy of any kind, whether voluntary or involuntary, nor subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements, or torts
of the Participant or Beneficiary. Any attempt to alienate, anticipate, encumber, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, garnish, attach or otherwise subject to legal or equitable process or encumber or dispose of any interest in the Plan shall be void.

 8.6 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Plan shall be declared illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality
or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Plan but shall be fully severable and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if said illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted herein. 

8.7 Construction. The article and section headings and numbers are included only for convenience of reference and are not to be taken as
limiting or extending the meaning of any of the terms and provisions of this Plan. Whenever appropriate, words used in the singular shall include the plural or the plural may be read as the singular. When used herein, the masculine gender includes
the feminine gender. The Plan shall be construed and interpreted by the Committee to the maximum extent possible in a manner to avoid any adverse tax consequences to Participants under Section 409A of the Code. 

8.8 Governing Law. The validity and effect of this Plan, and the rights and obligations of all persons affected hereby, shall be
construed and determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas unless superseded by federal law. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
Employer has caused the Plan to be amended and restated effective as of the day and year first above written.
