pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 24, 2011, to which eGames, Mauro and Heyday are parties (the “Purchase Agreement”); and 

WHEREAS, by virtue of the purchase of the Business, eGames is and will be engaged throughout the Area in the

 WHEREAS, in consideration of the
execution of the Purchase Agreement by eGames, Mauro (in his capacity as a principal shareholder) has agreed not to compete with the Business and to certain other obligations, as set forth herein; and 

WHEREAS, competition by Mauro with eGames, or disclosure by Mauro of the confidential and proprietary information

 3 








 
employment is for a determined period or is at will; provided however a response to a general solicitation for employment or consulting shall not be deemed a violation of this clause. 

(d) Non-Interference with Third-Party Relationships. Mauro shall not, in addition to the covenants
contained in Sections 2(a), (b) and (c), intentionally interfere with, or intentionally disrupt the relationship between eGames and any third party, including without limitation, any independent contractor, customer, supplier, distributor or
employee of eGames in the Business. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2,
eGames agrees to permit Mauro to accept an engagement or employment with an organization which may compete with the Business provided that: (i) Mauro’s duties with such organization do not relate to the Business; (ii) Mauro shall have
delivered to eGames a written statement, confirmed in writing by Mauro’s prospective employer or contractor, describing Mauro’s duties and stating that all such duties will be wholly unrelated to the Business and Mauro will not be required
or asked to disclose any Confidential Information of eGames in the course of the performance of his duties; and (iii) eGames shall have provided its written consent for Mauro to accept such engagement or employment, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The term “wholly unrelated” shall mean among other things that Mauro will not work in, consult with, cooperate with or provide information to any person, department or business segment of the
organization which is researching, acquiring, producing, distributing, providing, investigating, developing, manufacturing, marketing, supervising, licensing or commercializing the Business. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, if Mauro resigns from service or employment with eGames
for Good Reason either before or after a Change of Control or if Mauro is not offered a position with the successor in interest to eGames in connection with a Change of Control which is substantially equivalent in pay, title and responsibilities as
prior to the Change of Control, then Mauro’s obligations with respect to Sections 2(a) and (d) shall immediately cease and with respect to Sections 2(b) and 2(c) they shall continue but for not more than the shorter of one year from the
date of termination or three years from the Closing Date.

or on behalf of others, except on behalf of eGames, any use of such Confidential Information. Mauro’s obligations under Paragraph 3 will not extend to any of the Confidential Information that may become publicly available from sources other
than Mauro. Mauro has significant and substantial experience in the games industry. At all times he shall continue to be free to use such skill, knowledge, know-how, methodologies, algorithms and experience in his other businesses so long as
(a) he does not use Confidential Information and he adheres to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement. 
 4.

Business and to protect and preserve to eGames the benefit of its bargain in the acquisition of the Business, including, particularly, the goodwill associated therewith; that each of the above
and foregoing covenants is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve the benefits of such purchase; and that irreparable loss and injury would result should Mauro breach any of the foregoing covenants. 

5. Severability. Each of the covenants hereinabove contained shall be deemed separate, severable, and independent
covenants, and in the event any covenant shall be declared invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not in any manner affect or impair the validity or enforceability of any other part or provision of such covenant or of
any other covenant contained herein. 
 6. Partial Enforcement. If any of the covenants contained in
Section 2, or any part thereof, is held to be unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the scope of the subject matter thereof or the area covered thereby, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have
the power to reduce the duration, scope and/or area of such provision and, in its reduced form, said provision shall then be enforceable. 
 7. Enforcement. In addition to all other remedies provided at law or in equity, eGames shall be entitled to both preliminary and permanent injunctions against Mauro to prevent a breach or
contemplated or threatened breach by Mauro of any of the foregoing covenants, without the necessity of proving actual damages; and the existence of any claim, demand, cause of action, or action of Mauro against eGames, whether predicated upon this
Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by eGames of any such covenants. In the event of an actual breach of any of the foregoing covenants, eGames shall have the right to recover damages for all losses, actual and
contingent, and the right to require Mauro to account for and pay over to eGames all profits or other benefits (collectively “Benefits”) derived or received by Mauro as a result of any transactions constituting such breach, and Mauro
hereby agrees to account for and pay over such Benefits to eGames. Each of the rights and remedies enumerated above shall be independent of the other, and shall be severally enforceable, and all of such rights and remedies shall be in addition to,
and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to eGames at law or equity.
