AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE


In consideration of the promises contained herein, Scientific Games Corporation, 6601 Bermuda Road, Las Vegas, NV 89119 (the “Company”) and Kevin Sheehan (“you”), agree that:


WHEREAS, you have been employed by the Company since August 4, 2016 pursuant to an employment agreement dated August 4, 2016 (the “Employment Agreement”); and


WHEREAS, you and the Company wish to resolve all matters related to your employment with the Company, on the terms and conditions expressed in this Agreement and General Release (“Agreement”).


NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:


1.Last Day of Employment.  Your last day of employment with the Company is June 1, 2018 (the “Separation Date”).  The Employment Agreement will terminate on that date, except that any provisions in the Employment Agreement designed to survive termination will survive.  Effective as of the Separation Date, you will resign from the Compliance and Executive and Finance Committees of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).  
2.    Separation Benefits In Return for Signing.  
1.Separation Benefits.  You will receive, to the extent you have not already received, the Standard Termination Payments, as defined in Section 4(a) of the Employment Agreement.  In return for your signing this Agreement and complying with the promises made by you in this Agreement and the Employment Agreement, the Company will provide you with the separation benefits other than the Standard Termination Payments (the “Separation Benefits”) described in Section 4(e) of the Employment Agreement, subject to Sections 4, 5.6 and the other provisions of the Employment Agreement.  You acknowledge and agree that the Separation Benefits are separate from and in addition to what you are already entitled to receive from the Company.  Furthermore, if you are rehired by the Company or hired by any affiliate of the Company, all Separation Benefits will terminate as of the commencement date of such employment.  In addition to the Separation Benefits, and subject to the same conditions as your receipt of the Separation Benefits, the Company will pay you $50,000 to be used in connection with your relocation from Nevada (the “Relocation Payment”).  The Relocation Payment will be paid to you at the same time that the first installment of the Separation Benefits is paid pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement.


(b)    No Other Benefits. Except as provided in this Agreement, you shall not be entitled to receive any other payment, benefit or other form of compensation as a result of your employment or the termination thereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, except with respect to those equity grants listed on Exhibit A and as provided in Section 4, all equity awards

granted to you by the Company during your employment, including all restricted stock units and stock options granted to you, that are unvested on the Separation Date are forfeited on the Separation Date.


(c)    Tax Withholding.  All payments made by the Company to you hereunder shall be subject to all applicable withholding deductions.


3.    No Severance Benefits Unless You Sign this Agreement and Do Not Revoke It.  You understand and agree that you will not receive the Separation Benefits or Relocation Payment specified in Section 2(a) above unless: (a) you sign and return a fully signed copy of this Agreement within the time period specified below and do not revoke or rescind this Agreement within the time period specified below, and (b) you fulfill all of the promises contained herein.


4.    Senior Advisory Role.
(a)    You and the Company agree that, after the Separation Date you will be reasonably available to provide consulting services as described in this Section 4 in consideration for the additional vesting of equity described in this Section 4.  Either party may at any time cancel the providing of consulting services by you by written notice to the other. There shall be no required minimum period of consulting services and in signing this Agreement, you acknowledge that you are not relying on any minimum period of consulting. The period from the Separation Date until the date consulting services are terminated by the aforesaid written notice is referred to as the “Consulting Period.”  During the Consulting Period, you agree to (i) assist in transitioning your duties and responsibilities, (ii) continue to assist on matters reasonably within your knowledge, (iii) make introductions as reasonably requested and (iv) provide advice on such matters as reasonably requested (collectively, the “Services”).  In consideration of your providing the Services, and subject to your execution and non-revocation of this Agreement, you will continue to vest in the grant made to you in accordance with Section 3(c)(ii) of your Employment Agreement and the award granted to you in 2018 pursuant to Section 3(c)(i) of your Employment Agreement as if you were an employee during the Consulting Period.  For the avoidance of doubt, the continued vesting described in this Section is being provided only in consideration of your providing the Services during the Consulting Period, and you understand and agree that you are not entitled to receive, and will not receive, continued vesting as described herein in respect of your service as a non-employee member of the Board either during or following the termination of the Consulting Period.  Notwithstanding anything contained in the Employment Agreement or in any award agreement, any vested stock options you hold as of Separation Date (together with any options that become vested after your Separation Date pursuant to this Section 4(a)) will remain outstanding and exercisable by you for a period of ninety (90) days following the end of the Consulting Period (but in no event later than the expiration date of such stock options), after which date any unexercised stock options will be canceled for no consideration.  During the Consulting Period, the Company will also reimburse you for any reasonable costs and expenses approved in advance by the Company and incurred in connection with the performance of the Services, subject to the Company’s expense reimbursement policies in effect from time to time.

(b)    In no event will you be expected to perform, or will you perform, Services that exceed 20% of the average level of bona fide services that you provided to the Company during your employment with the Company (the intent of the foregoing is that you will have incurred a “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A, from the Company on the Separation Date).  


(c)    You acknowledge and agree that in performing the Services, you are acting solely as an independent contractor and not as an employee, legal representative or agent of the Company or any of its affiliates and that you shall perform the Services under the general direction of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or his designee.  Furthermore, nothing herein is intended to, or shall be deemed to constitute a partnership or joint venture between the Company or any of its affiliates, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand. The Company's sole obligation to you with respect to the Services shall be pursuant to this Section 4.  You acknowledge and agree that as an independent contractor you alone will be responsible for federal, state, and local taxes, and self-employment taxes, on the fees payable to you during the Consulting Period.


5.    General Release of Claims.  In consideration for the Separation Benefits and Relocation Payment specified in Section 2(a) above, which you acknowledge are not otherwise owed to you, and as an inducement for the Company to entering into the consulting arrangement and provide the benefits described in Section 4, you understand and agree that you are knowingly and voluntarily releasing, waiving and forever discharging, to the fullest extent permitted by law, on your own behalf and on behalf of your agents, assignees, attorneys, heirs, executors, administrators and anyone else claiming by or through you (collectively referred to as the “Releasors”):
