performance of Employer or its successor entity; 
  
 (iii) Employer materially reduces the aggregate benefits and perquisites to Employee from those being provided; 
  
 (iv) Employer or any of its Affiliates requires Employee to change the location of Employee’s job or office, so that Employee will be
based at a location more than 25 miles from the location of Employee’s job or office; 
  
 (v) Employer or any of its Affiliates reduces Employee’s responsibilities or directs Employee to report to a person of lower rank or
responsibilities than the person to whom Employee reported; or 
  
 (vi) the successor to Employer fails or refuses expressly to assume in writing the obligations of Employer under this Agreement.

 2. BASIC
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT. Subject to the terms and pursuant to the conditions hereinafter set forth, Employer hereby employs Employee during the Term hereinafter specified to serve in a capacity, under a title, and with such duties not
inconsistent with those set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, as the same may be modified and/or assigned to Employee by Employer from time to time; provided, however, that no change in Employee’s duties shall be permitted if it would
result in a material reduction in the level of Employee’s duties as in effect prior to the change, it being understood, however, that a change in Employee’s reporting responsibilities is not, itself, a basis for finding a material
reduction in the level of duties. 
  

 5 








 3. DUTIES OF EMPLOYEE. Employee shall perform such duties assigned to Employee by
Employer as are generally associated with the duties of Sr. Vice President & Chief Financial Officer for Employer or such similar duties as may be assigned to Employee by Employer as Employer may determine. Employee’s duties shall
include, but not be limited to: (i) the efficient and continuous operation of Employer and its Affiliates; (ii) the preparation of relevant budgets and allocation or relevant funds; (iii) the selection and delegation of duties and responsibilities
of subordinates; (iv) the direction, review and oversight of all programs under Employee’s supervision; and (v) such other and further duties as may be assigned by Employer to Employee from time to time. The foregoing notwithstanding, Employee
shall devote such time to Employer’s Affiliates as may be required by Employer, provided such duties are not inconsistent with Employee’s primary duties to Employer hereunder. 
  
 4. ACCEPTANCE OF EMPLOYMENT. Employee hereby unconditionally accepts the employment set forth
hereunder, under the terms and pursuant to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Employee hereby covenants and agrees that, during the Term, Employee will devote the whole of Employee’s normal and customary working time and best efforts
solely to the performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement and that, except upon Employer’s prior express written authorization to that effect, Employee shall not perform any services for any casino, hotel/casino or other similar
gaming or gambling operation not owned by Employer or any of Employer’s Affiliates. Employer hereby authorizes Employee to provide assistance to his former employer on litigation matters that are pending as of the Effective Date and involve
that former employer, provided such assistance does not interfere with the performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement. 
  
 5. TERM. Unless sooner terminated as provided in this Agreement, the term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall
consist of four (4) years commencing on the Effective Date of this Agreement and terminating on the fourth Anniversary of the Effective Date. 
  
 6. SPECIAL TERMINATION PROVISIONS. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5 of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate upon
the occurrence of any of the following events: 
  
 (a) the death of Employee; 
  
 (b) the
giving of written notice from Employer to Employee of the termination of this Agreement upon the Complete Disability of Employee; 
  
 (c) the giving of written notice by Employer to Employee of the termination of this Agreement upon the discharge of Employee for Cause;

  
 (d) the giving of written notice by Employer
to Employee of the termination of this Agreement following a disapproval of this Agreement or 

  

 6 








 
the denial, suspension, limitation or revocation of Employee’s License (as defined in Subsection 8(b) of this Agreement); 
  
 (e) the giving of written notice by Employer to Employee of
the termination of this Agreement without Cause, provided, however, that after such notice, Employer must make the Separation Payment to Employee; 
  
 (f) the giving of written notice by Employee to Employer upon a material breach of this Agreement by
Employer, which material breach remains uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice, provided, however, that after the expiration of such cure period without the cure having been effected,
Employer must make the Separation Payment to Employee; or 
  
 (g) at Employee’s sole election in writing as provided in Paragraph 17 of this Agreement, within ten (10) days after both a Change of Control and as a result of Good Reason, provided,
however, that after Employer’s receipt of Employee’s written election, Employer must make the Separation Payment to Employee. 
  
 In the event of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Subparagraph 6(a), (b), (c) or (d), Employer shall not be required to make any payments to
Employee other than payment of Base Salary and vacation pay accrued but unpaid through the termination date. In the event of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Subparagraph 6(e), (f) or (g), Employee will also be entitled
to receive health benefits coverage for Employee and Employee’s dependents under the same plan(s) or arrangement(s) under which Employee was covered immediately before Employee’s termination, or plan(s) established or arrangement(s)
provided by Employer or any of its Affiliates thereafter. Such health benefits coverage shall be paid for by Employer to the same extent as if Employee were still employed by Employer, and Employee will be required to make such payments as Employee
would be required to make if Employee were still employed by Employer. The health benefits provided under this Paragraph 6 shall continue until the earlier of (x) the expiration of the period for which the Separation Payment is paid, (y) the date
Employee becomes covered under any other group health plan not maintained by Employer or any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that if such other group health plan excludes any pre-existing condition that Employee or
Employee’s dependents may have when coverage under such group health plan would otherwise begin, coverage under this Paragraph 6 shall continue (but not beyond the period described in clause (x) of this sentence) with respect to such
pre-existing condition until such exclusion under such other group health plan lapses or expires. In the event Employee is required to make an election under Sections 601 through 607 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(commonly known as COBRA) to qualify for the health benefits described in this Paragraph 6, the obligations of Employer and its Affiliates under this Paragraph 6 shall be conditioned upon Employee’s timely making such an election. In the event
of a termination of this Agreement pursuant 

  

 7 








 
to any of the provisions of this Paragraph 6, Employee shall not be entitled to any benefits pursuant to any severance plan in effect by Employer or any of
Employer’s Affiliates. 
  
 7. COMPENSATION TO
EMPLOYEE. For and in complete consideration of Employee’s full and faithful performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement, Employer hereby covenants and agrees to pay to Employee, and Employee hereby covenants and
agrees to accept from Employer, the following items of compensation: 
  
 (a) Base Salary. Employer hereby covenants and agrees to pay to Employee, and Employee hereby covenants and agrees to accept from Employer, a base salary at the rate of Three Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($350,000.00) per annum, payable in such weekly, bi-weekly or semi-monthly installments as shall be convenient to Employer (the “Base Salary”). Such Base Salary shall be subject to periodic merit reviews and may be
increased, but not decreased, as a result of any such review. Such Base Salary shall be exclusive of and in addition to any other benefits which Employer, in its sole discretion, may make available to Employee including, but not limited to any bonus
plan, stock incentive plan, profit sharing plan, pension plan, retirement plan, disability or life insurance plan, medical and/or hospitalization plan, or any other benefit plan which may be in effect during the Term.

eligible to receive a bonus as follows:

 (ii) One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) for the period of January 1 through December 31, 2004; 
  
 (iii) For periods thereafter, at such times and in such amounts as Employer, in its sole and exclusive discretion, may determine, until
such time as Employer adopts a performance-based bonus plan, and thereafter in accordance with such plan. 
  
 Nothing in this Agreement shall limit Employer’s discretion to adopt, amend or terminate any bonus plan at any time. 
  
 (c) Employee Benefit Plans. Employer hereby
covenants and agrees that it shall include Employee, if otherwise eligible, in any profit sharing plan, stock incentive plan, pension plan, retirement plan, disability or life insurance plan, medical and/or hospitalization plan, and any other
benefit plan which may be placed in effect by Employer or any of its Affiliates for the benefit of Employer’s executives during the Term. Subject to and effective 

  

 8 








 
upon the approval of the Compensation Committee of Wynn Resorts, Limited, Employee shall be granted 75,000 stock options of Wynn Resorts, Limited common
stock under the Wynn Resorts, Limited 2002 Stock Incentive Plan. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit Employer’s or any of its Affiliates’ ability to exercise the discretion provided to it under any employee benefit plan, or to adopt,
amend or terminate any benefit plan at any time. 
  
 (d) Expense Reimbursement. During the Term and provided the same are authorized in advance by Employer, Employer shall either pay directly or reimburse Employee for Employee’s reasonable expenses incurred for the
benefit of Employer in accordance with Employer’s general policy regarding expense reimbursement, as the same may be modified from time to time. Employer specifically agrees to reimburse Employee for his professional dues and continuing
professional education expenses, up to a total of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500.00) per year of the Term, non-cumulative. Prior to such any payment or reimbursement of expenses, Employee shall provide Employer with sufficient detailed
invoices of such expenses as may be required by Employer’s policy. 
  
 (e) Vacations and Holidays. Commencing as of the Effective Date, Employee shall be entitled to annual paid vacation and paid holidays (or, at Employer’s option, an equivalent number of paid days
off) in accordance with Employer’s respective standard policies, however, in no event shall Employee receive less than two (2) weeks’ paid vacation during any full year of the Term. 
  
 (f) Withholdings. All compensation provided to
Employee by Employer under this Section 7 shall be subject to applicable withholdings for federal, state or local income or other taxes, Social Security Tax, Medicare Tax, State Unemployment Insurance, State Disability Insurance, charitable
contributions and the like. 
  
 8. LICENSING
REQUIREMENTS. 
  
 (a) Employer and
Employee hereby covenant and agree that this Agreement may be subject to the approval of one or more gaming regulatory authorities (the “Authorities”) pursuant to the provisions of the relevant gaming regulatory statutes (the
“Gaming Acts”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Gaming Regulations”). Employer and Employee hereby covenant and agree to use their best efforts to obtain any and all approvals required by the Gaming
Acts and/or Gaming Regulations. In the event that (i) an approval of this Agreement by the Authorities is required for Employee to carry out his duties and responsibilities set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, (ii) Employer and Employee have
used their best efforts to obtain such approval, and (iii) this Agreement is not so 

  

 9

 (b) If applicable, Employer and Employee hereby covenant and
agree that, in order for Employee to discharge the duties required under this Agreement, Employee must apply for or hold a license, registration, permit or other approval (the “License”) as issued by the Authorities pursuant to the
terms of the relevant Gaming Act and as otherwise required by this Agreement. In the event Employee fails to apply for and secure, or the Authorities refuse to issue or renew Employee’s License, Employee, at Employer’s sole cost and
expense, shall promptly defend such action and shall take such reasonable steps as may be required to either remove the objections or secure or reinstate the Authorities’ approval, respectively. The foregoing notwithstanding, if the source of
the objections or the Authorities’ refusal to renew or maintain Employee’s License arise as a result of any of the events described in Subsection 1(c) of this Agreement, then Employer’s obligations under this Section 8 also shall not
be operative and Employee shall promptly reimburse Employer upon demand for any expenses incurred by Employer pursuant to this Section 8. 
  
 (c) Employer and Employee hereby covenant and agree that the provisions of this Section 8 shall apply in the event Employee’s duties
require that Employee also be licensed by governmental agencies other than the Authorities. 
  
 9. CONFIDENTIALITY. Employee hereby warrants, covenants and agrees that, without the prior express written approval of Employer, Employee shall hold in the strictest confidence, and shall not
disclose to any person, firm, corporation or other entity, any and all of Employer’s confidential data, including but not limited to (a) information, drawings, sketches, plans or other documents concerning Employer’s business or
development plans, customers or suppliers or those of Employer’s Affiliates; (b) Employer’s or its Affiliates’ development, design, construction or sales and marketing methods or techniques; or (c) Employer’s trade secrets and
other “know-how” or information not of a public nature, regardless of how such information came to the custody of Employee. For purposes of this Agreement, such confidential information shall include, but not be limited to, information,
including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process, that (x) derives independent economic value, present or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by,
other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use and (y) is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy. The warranty, covenant and agreement set forth in this Section 9 shall not
expire, shall survive this Agreement, and shall be binding upon Employee without regard to the passage of time or other events. 
  

 10 








 10. RESTRICTIVE COVENANT/NO SOLICITATION. 
  
 (a) Employee hereby covenants and agrees that, during the
Term or for such longer period so long as Employer pays to Employee the compensation set forth in Subsection 7(a) of this Agreement, Employee shall not directly or indirectly, either as a principal, agent, employee, employer, consultant, partner,
member of a limited liability company, shareholder of a closely held corporation, or shareholder in excess of two (2%) per cent of a publicly traded corporation, corporate officer or director, manager, or in any other individual or representative

Employer or Employer’s Affiliates have or have announced a plan to have hotel or gaming operations. Employee hereby further covenants and agrees that the restrictive covenant contained in this Section 10 is reasonable as to duration, terms and
geographical area and that the same protects the legitimate interests of Employer, imposes no undue hardship on Employee, and is not injurious to the public. 
  

(b) Employee hereby further covenants and agrees that, during the Term and for a period of one (1) year following the expiration of the
Term, Employee shall not directly or indirectly, and Employee shall not suffer others to, solicit or attempt to solicit for employment any management level employee of Employer or Employer’s Affiliates with or on behalf of any business that is
