         the 40,000 options granted have met the time requirements of the
         vesting schedule, the exercise of these options remains restricted
         until the loan is repaid to the Company. These options are included as
         unexercisable at October 31, 1999.

                            COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

         The Board has elected to compensate outside directors with a one
thousand dollar ($1,000.00) quarterly payment and with stock option grants
pursuant to the Company's Outside Directors' Option Plan ("Director's Plan").
Each Director who is not an employee of the Company is entitled to receive an
annual non-discretionary grant of options to purchase three thousand shares
(3,000) of common stock after each annual meeting of shareholders. In addition,
the Board can make discretionary grants to outside Directors under the
Director's Plan. In January of 2000, the Board made a discretionary grant under
the Director's Plan of an option to purchase five thousand shares (5,000) of the
Company's common stock to each of its outside Directors. The exercise price of
the options is equal to the closing price of the Company's common stock on the
date of grant. The options are immediately exercisable and expire the earlier of
seven (7) years from the date of grant or thirty (30) days after leaving the
Board.

           REPORT OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Overview and Philosophy

         The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee")
is composed entirely of outside directors and is responsible for developing and
making recommendations to the Board with respect to the Company's compensation
policies. In addition, the Committee, pursuant to authority delegated by the
Board, recommends on an annual basis the compensation to be paid to the Chief
Executive Officer and each of the other executive officers of the Company.

         It is the intention of the Committee to utilize a pay-for-performance
compensation strategy that is directly related to achievement of the Company's
financial performance and growth objectives. The primary elements of the
executive compensation program are base salary, annual cash incentives based on
performance, and long-term incentives in the form of stock options. These
elements are designed to: (i) provide compensation opportunities that will allow
the Company to attract and retain talented executive officers who are essential
to the Company's success; (ii) provide compensation that rewards corporate
performance and motivates the executive officers to achieve corporate strategic
objectives; and (iii) align the interests of executive officers with the
long-term interests of shareholders through stock-based awards.

Base Salary

         Base salaries of the Company's executive officers are intended to be
competitive with the median base salaries paid by other corporations engaged in
business similar to the Company, such as suppliers to the gaming industry. Base
salaries are determined for executive officer positions using compensation
surveys, taking into account variables such as geography, job comparability,
size of each corporation and its industry. In addition to base salary, executive
officers are eligible to participate in the Company's employee benefit plans on
the same terms as other employees, except that executive officers cannot
participate in the employee-wide profit sharing plan.

Incentive Compensation

         The purpose of the annual bonus program is to provide a short-term,
direct financial incentive in the form of an annual cash bonus to executive
officers if the Company achieves a targeted level of financial performance. Each
executive officer is eligible to receive a cash bonus determined by a formula
proposed by the Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. Incentive
compensation is reviewed annually. No bonuses were paid to executive officers in
fiscal 1999. The Committee may also provide cash bonus opportunities to
executive officers based upon meeting specific operational objectives. No
bonuses were paid to executive officers in fiscal 1999. Performance bonuses were
earned by executives based on fiscal 1999 performance and paid in December,
1999.

Long-Term Incentives

         The 1993 Stock Option Plan is the basis of the Company's long-term
incentive plan for executive officers and other key employees. The objective of
this plan is to align executive officers' long-term interests with those of the
shareholders by creating a direct incentive for


                                        7
<PAGE>


executive officers to increase shareholder value. The option grants allow
executive officers to purchase shares of Company stock at a price equal to the
fair market value of the stock on the date of grant over a term of ten years.
However, one third of the options granted to each of the executive officers in
October 1998 was priced at 125% of the fair market value of the stock on the
date of grant. The award of option grants is consistent with the Company's
objective to include in total compensation a long-term equity interest for
executive officers, with greater opportunity for reward if long-term performance
is sustained.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

         Mr. Lahti became Chief Executive Officer of the Company in June 1996,
and has also served as its President since October 1995. Mr. Lahti began
employment with the Company as its Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice
President in December 1993.

         Since Mr. Lahti joined the Company, revenues have grown from $554,000
for fiscal 1993 to $28,926,000 for fiscal 1999, while operating income increased
from an operating loss of $1,217,000 for fiscal 1993 to operating income of
$5,286,000 for fiscal 1999. Fiscal 1999 operating income is stated net of a
$2.75 million charge related to the settlement of the Company's litigation with
Mikohn Gaming Corporation's subsidiary Progressive Games, Inc. ("PGI"). The
settlement included cross-licensing terms that will result in the Company
receiving a total of $2.9 million from Mikohn over the next five years. In
addition to settling the Mikohn/PGI lawsuit, Mr. Lahti also successfully
executed agreements for the acquisition of Three Card Poker, a popular new
specialty table game, the rights in the U.S. and Caribbean for Shuffle Master to
distribute certain TCS Group products, and the licensing of Press Your Luck for
video slot game applications. With regard to the Company's core shuffler and
table game product lines, placements (including sold, leased and licensed
products) have shown strong growth over the past six years. The total of
cumulative shufflers sold and shufflers currently on lease as of October 31,
1999, was in excess of 5,700 units, compared to 210 as of the end of fiscal
1993. Table games have increased by 822 units over the same period. During
fiscal 1999, Mr. Lahti presided over the rollout of the ACE(TM) single deck
shuffler and the development of the new continuous multi-deck King(TM) shuffler.
To create additional revenue streams, the Company also began to invest in the
development of a new hardware and software game system for slot machines. The
system should provide game developers a more timely and cost effective means for
game development and should allow casino operators greater flexibility in game
purchasing decisions.

         Mr. Lahti's base salary was $236,250 for fiscal 1999. Mr. Lahti earned
a bonus of $113,000 for fiscal 1999 as a result of the achievement of the
financial performance objectives set by the Board. For fiscal 2000, Mr. Lahti's
base salary will increase by 4% to $ 246,000. Additional terms of Mr. Lahti's
compensation package remain under negotiation with the Board of Directors.

Conclusion

         The Committee believes that the executive compensation plan discussed
in this Proxy Statement is consistent with the overall corporate strategy for
continued growth in earnings and shareholder value.

                             STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH

         The following graph compares the cumulative total shareholder return
for the last five fiscal years, assuming $100 invested at October 31, 1994, with
the reinvestment of all dividends, as if such amounts had been invested in: (i)
the Company's Common Stock; (ii) the stocks included in the Russell 2000 Index;
and (iii) the stocks of a peer group index. The Company has elected to compare
an investment in its stock to a peer group index rather than a published
industry index because it believes such peer group index includes companies
whose businesses are more similar to that of the Company than any published
index.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

         In October 1996, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a
$300,000 loan to Mr. Lahti. These funds were advanced to Mr. Lahti in November
1996. The loan bears interest at seven percent, and is secured by 17,000 shares
of Shuffle Master, Inc. Common Stock which were pledged as collateral. The note
is further secured by a restriction on Mr. Lahti's vesting schedule under his
October 1996 grant of 40,000 options. The restriction requires loan repayment
before vested options can be exercised. As of October 31, 1999, the amount due
including accrued interest was $363,000. The terms of the loan were modified to
extend the due date to November 4, 2002 and provide that all accrued interest be
paid on or before May 1, 2000.

         In March 1997, the Company purchased certain intellectual property from
Dr. Yoseloff and a company owned by Dr. Yoseloff. The purchase price (the amount
of which is the subject of a confidential treatment filing with the Securities
and Exchange Commission) included amounts previously paid to such company for
certain licensing rights and amounts previously paid to another company owned by
Dr. Yoseloff. The balance of such purchase price is to be paid by the issuance
of 108,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock which were valued at $8.75 per
share, and cash payments (the amount of which is the subject of a confidential
treatment filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission), both to be made
equally over twenty (20) quarterly installments, beginning March 7, 1997. The
Company has made all payments required to date under this agreement. There was
no stated interest rate in the agreement. Interest was imputed for financial
statement purposes at seven percent. Under the terms of this agreement, Dr.
Yoseloff will receive additional payments (the amount of which is the subject of
a confidential treatment filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission) for
five years contingent on his continued employment with the Company.

         In a related but separate agreement, Dr. Yoseloff signed a five-year
employment contract with the Company commencing August 1, 1997. Under the terms
of the contract, Dr. Yoseloff will receive $100,000 per year in salary for each
of the five years following the beginning of his employment.

                      TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT ARRANGEMENT

         In fiscal 1997, the Company entered into a termination of employment
arrangement with Mr. Lahti which, in the event of termination other than for
cause, provides for payment of an amount equal to his then-current base salary
over a one year period commencing on the date of termination. In fiscal 1998,
the Company entered into a termination of employment arrangement with Mr.
Griffin whereby Mr. Griffin will receive nine months of his then-current base
salary in the event of a change of control of the Company.
