"On behalf of my fellow Board members, I would like to thank David Sambur for his guidance and insights as Chairman of the Board and for his nine years of leadership at AGS," said AGS President, Chief Executive Officer, and Board member, David Lopez.

Mr. Lopez added, "We are excited to welcome Adam as our new Board Chairman. He is an incredibly well-respected leader within the gaming industry, and his depth of experience has been invaluable to AGS throughout his years of service. Adam's guidance and leadership from day one of the Company's initial public offering has played a critical role in shaping who we are as a Company today. I look forward to continue working with him in his new role."

In addressing his recent appointment, Mr. Chibib commented, "I am extremely honored to serve as AGS' Chairman of the Board. Over the past five years, I have gained a great deal of respect for my fellow Board members and the Company's executive leadership team. I look forward to leveraging my previous experience in gaming and other industries to help guide AGS to the next level."
