    THIS AGREEMENT (this "AGREEMENT"), effective as of September 24, 2000 is
made and entered into by and between Anchor Gaming, a Nevada Company (the
"COMPANY"), and             (the "OPTIONEE").

                                   RECITALS:

    A. This Agreement is entered into in conjunction with and subject to the
Anchor Gaming 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2000 PLAN") and the Anchor Gaming
1995 Stock Option Plan (as amended, the "1995 PLAN").

    B.  The entire Board of Directors has approved the grant of the Option under
this Agreement to the Optionee.

    C.  The 2000 Plan is subject to the approval of the stockholders of the
Company and the next annual meeting of Stockholders.

    D. All Options granted under this Agreement that vest on the consummation of
the Fulton Transactions (as defined in ATTACHMENT A) are granted under and will
be subject to the terms of the 1995 Plan.

    NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants and
promises set forth in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration
the receipt and sufficiency of which are mutually acknowledged, the parties
agree as follows:

    1.  GRANT OF OPTION.  The Company hereby grants to the Optionee, upon the
terms and subject to the conditions, limitations, and restrictions set forth in
this Agreement, an option (the "OPTION") to acquire 25,000 shares of Common
Stock, par value $.01 per share of the Company (the "COMMON STOCK"), at an
exercise price per share of $71.875 (the "EXERCISE PRICE"). The Optionee hereby
confirms his acceptance of the Option from the Company.

    2.  EXERCISE.

        (a) The Option will vest in accordance with ATTACHMENT A.
    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, in the event of a
    Change of Control (as defined below), the Options of the Optionee under this
    Agreement will become immediately exerciseable and constitute an Exercisable
    Portion. Such Options will remain fully exercisable for one year from the
    date of the Change of Control. As used in this Agreement, "CHANGE OF
    CONTROL" means the occurrence of any of the following events, as a result of
    one transaction or a series of transactions: (i) any "person" (as that term
    is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
    as amended, (the "EXCHANGE ACT"), but excluding the Company, its affiliates,
    and any qualified or non-qualified plan maintained by the Company or its
    affiliates) becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3
    promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities
    of the Company representing more than 50% of the combined voting power of
    the Company's then outstanding securities; (ii) individuals who constitute a
    majority of the Board of Directors of the Company immediately prior to a
    contested election for positions on the Board cease to constitute a majority
    as a result of such contested election; (iii) the Company is combined (by
    merger, share exchange, consolidation, or otherwise) with another entity and
    as a result of such combination, less than 50% of the outstanding securities
    of the surviving or resulting entity are owned in the aggregate by the
    former shareholders of the Company; (iv) the Company sells, leases, or
    otherwise transfers all or a majority of all of its properties, assets, or
    income or revenue generating capacity to another person or entity; (v) a

                                      1
<PAGE>
    dissolution or liquidation of the Company or; (vi) any other transaction or
    series of transactions is consummated that results in a required disclosure
    under Item 1 of Form 8-K or successor form.

    In order to exercise the Option with respect to any Exercisable Portion, the
Optionee will provide written notice (the "EXERCISE NOTICE") to the Company at
its principal executive office stating the number of shares in respect of which
the Option is being exercised. The Exercise Notice must be signed by the
Optionee and must include his complete address and social security number. If
the person exercising the Option is a transferee of the Optionee by will or
under the laws of descent and distribution, the Exercise Notice must be
accompanied by appropriate proof of the right of such transferee to exercise
this Option. At the time of exercise, the Optionee will pay to the Company the
exercise price per share set forth in SECTION 1 times the number of shares as to
which the Option is being exercised. Subject to the terms of the 1995 Plan and
the 2000 Plan, as applicable, the Optionee will make such payment (i) by
certified check; (ii) by the delivery of shares of Common Stock having a Fair
Market Value (defined below) on the date immediately preceding the exercise date
equal to the aggregate exercise price; or (iii) cancellation of the Option with
respect to a number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market
Value on the date immediately preceding the date of exercise that exceeds the
aggregate Exercise Price by the amount of the Exercise Price due with respect to
such Exercise Notice. If the Option is exercised in full, the Optionee will
surrender this Agreement to the Company at the Company's option for
cancellation. If the Option is exercised in part, the Optionee will surrender
this Agreement to the Company, at the Company's option, so that the Company may
make appropriate notation on this Agreement or cancel this Agreement and issue a
new agreement representing the unexercised portion of the Option. The Option may
not be exercised for less than 100 shares at a time or the remaining shares
purchasable under the Option, if less than 100 shares. "FAIR MARKET VALUE" means
(i) the last reported sale price, regular way, of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq
National Market or other market or exchange on which the Common Stock is traded;
or (ii) if there is no reported price information for the Common Stock, the Fair
Market Value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

        (b) If the shares to be purchased are covered by an effective
    registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
    "ACT"), the Option may be exercised by a broker-dealer acting on behalf of
    the Optionee if (i) the broker-dealer has received from the Optionee or the
    Company a fully and duly endorsed agreement evidencing such option, together
    with instructions signed by the Optionee requesting the Company to deliver
    the shares of Common Stock subject to such option to the broker-dealer on
    behalf of the Optionee and specifying the account into which such shares
    should be deposited, (ii) adequate provision has been made with respect to
    the payment of any withholding taxes due upon such exercise, and (iii) the
    broker-dealer and the Optionee have otherwise complied with
    Section 220.3(e)(4) of Regulation T, 12 CFR Part 220, or any successor
    provision.

        (c) The Option will be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionee
    only by the Optionee. To the extent exercisable after the Optionee's death,
    the Option will be exercised only by the Optionee's representatives,
    executors, successors, or beneficiaries.

    3.  EXPIRATION OF OPTION.  The Option will expire, and will not be
exercisable with respect to any Exercisable Portion as to which the Option has
not been exercised, on the first to occur of: (a) the eleventh anniversary of
the Award Date; or (b) one year after the effective date of any Change of
Control.

    4.  TAX WITHHOLDING.  Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Company may take such steps as it deems necessary or
desirable for the withholding of any taxes that it is required by law or
regulation of any governmental authority, federal, state, or local, domestic or
foreign, to withhold in connection with any of the shares of Common Stock
subject to this Agreement, including requiring the Optionee to pay to the
Company the amount of such withholding tax before the Company issued any shares
pursuant to the exercise of the Option.

    5.  DILUTION.  If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is
changed by reason of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, or
combination of shares, the number of shares of Common Stock

                                      2
<PAGE>
then issuable upon exercise of the Option and the exercise price per share will
be appropriately adjusted. In the event of any merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization of the Company or similar transaction pursuant
to which holders of the Common Stock receive other securities or property (a
"REORGANIZATION TRANSACTION"), then upon any subsequent exercise of the Option,
the Optionee will be entitled to receive, for each share of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Option prior to such Reorganization Transaction,
the number and kind of securities and other property received in respect of one
share of Common Stock as a result of such Reorganization Transaction.

    6.  TRANSFER OF OPTION.  The Optionee will not, directly or indirectly,
sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, or hypothecate ("TRANSFER") any of the Option
or the rights and privileges pertaining thereto except for the Exercisable
Portion. In addition, the Optionee will not, directly or indirectly, transfer
any portion of the Option or any shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise
of the Option other than (a) with the prior written consent of the Company,
(b) by will or the laws of descent and distribution, (c) with respect to shares
of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Option, pursuant to an effective
registration statement filed under the Act, or (d) with respect to shares of
Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Option, pursuant to an exemption from
the registration requirements of the Act. Any permitted transferee to whom the
Optionee transfers the Option pursuant to (a) or (b) above will agree to be
bound by this Agreement. Neither the Option nor the underlying shares of Common
Stock is liable for or subject to, in whole or in part, the debts, contracts,
liabilities or torts of the Optionee, nor will they be subject to garnishment,
attachment, execution, levy, or other legal or equitable process.

    7.  CERTAIN LEGAL RESTRICTIONS.  The Company will not be obligated to sell
or issue any shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Option or otherwise
unless the issuance and delivery of such shares complies with all relevant
provisions of law and other legal requirements including, without limitation,
any applicable federal or state securities laws and the requirements of any
stock exchange upon which shares of the Common Stock may then be listed. As a
condition to the exercise of the Option or the sale by the Company of any
additional shares of Common Stock to the Optionee, the Company may require the
Optionee to make such representations and warranties as may be necessary to
assure the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements of
applicable gaming regulations or federal or state securities laws. The Company
will not be liable for refusing to sell or issue any shares if the Company
cannot obtain authority from the appropriate regulatory bodies deemed by the
Company to be necessary to lawfully sell or issue such shares. The Company
agrees to use its best efforts to cause a registration statement covering
resales of the Common Stock issued on exercise of the Option to be filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission and to be effective, and to list such
shares on the Nasdaq National Market or other exchange on which the Common Stock
is then traded. The shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of the
Option may not be transferred except in accordance with applicable federal or
state securities laws. At the Company's option, the certificate evidencing
shares of Common Stock issued to the Optionee will bear appropriate legends
restricting transfer under gaming and other applicable law.

    Any Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of Options granted pursuant
to this Agreement during the Optionee's service as an director or executive
officer of the Company under Rule 16b-3 will not be transferred until at least
six months have elapsed from the date of grant of such Option to the date of a
disposition of the Common Stock underlying such Option.

    8.  MISCELLANEOUS.

        (a) The granting of the Option will impose no obligation upon the
    Optionee to exercise the Option or any part thereof.

        (b) Neither the Optionee nor any person claiming under or through the
    Optionee will be or will have any of the rights or privileges of a
    stockholder of the Company in respect of any of the shares issuable upon the
    exercise of the Option unless and until certificates representing such
    shares have been issued and delivered to the Optionee or such Optionee's
    agent.

                                      3
<PAGE>
        (c) Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this
    Agreement or any deliver of the Option to the Company will be addressed to
    the Company at its principal executive offices, and any notice to be given
    to the Optionee will be addressed to the Optionee at the address set forth
    beneath his signature on this Agreement, or at such other address for a
    party as such party may hereafter designate in writing to the other. Any
    such notice will be deemed to have been duly given if mailed, postage
    prepaid, addressed as aforesaid. Subject to the limitations in this
    Agreement on the transferability by the Optionee of the Option and any
    shares of Common Stock, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the
    benefit of the representatives, executors, successors or beneficiaries of
    the parties hereto.

        (d) THE INTERPRETATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT
    SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW: OF THE STATE OF NEVADA AND THE UNITED STATES,
    AS APPLICABLE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF.

        (e) If court of competent jurisdiction (in a final determination) or the
    Board of Directors, by a majority vote of disinterested directors that are
    Continuing Directors (as defined below) after receipt of a written opinion
    of independent counsel selected by the Optionee and the Company, determines
    that any provision of this Agreement (i) is illegal, unenforceable, or void,
    in whole or in part or (ii) would result in liability for monetary damages
    for the Company or any of its directors, then the parties will be relieved
    of all obligations arising under such provision, but only to the extent that
    it is illegal, unenforceable, or void or would result in such damages, and
    this Agreement shall be deemed amended by modifying such provision to the
    extent necessary to make it legal and enforceable and to eliminate such
    liability while preserving its intent or, if that is not possible, by
    substituting therefor another provision that is legal and enforceable and
    achieves the same objectives. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term
    "Continuing Directors" has the meaning given to it Rights Agreement dated as
    of October 17, 1997 between the Company and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as the
    Rights Agent, as then in effect.

        (f) All section titles and captions in this Agreement are for
    convenience only, will not be deemed part of this Agreement, and in no way
    will define, limit, extend, or describe the scope or intent of any
    provisions of this Agreement.

        (g) The parties will execute all documents, provide all information, and
    take or refrain from taking all actions as may be necessary or appropriate
    to achieve the purposes of this Agreement

        (h) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties
    to this Agreement pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement and
    supersedes all prior agreements and understandings pertaining to such
    subject matter.

        (i) No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any
    covenant, duty, agreement, or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any
    right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof will constitute waiver of
    any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement, or condition.

        (j) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which
    together will constitute one agreement binding on all the parties to this
    Agreement, notwithstanding that all such parties are not signatories to the
    original or the same counterpart.

        (k) No supplement, modification, or amendment of this Agreement or
    waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be binding unless executed in
    writing by all parties to this Agreement. No waiver of any of the provisions
    of this Agreement will be deemed or will constitute a waiver of any other
    provision of this Agreement (regardless of whether similar), nor will any
    such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly
    provided.

    however, in its sole discretion, provide for the lapse of any of the vesting
    restrictions placed upon the Restricted Stock and may accelerate or waive
    any of such restrictions in whole or in part at any time, based upon
    performance and/or such other factors as the Board or the Committee may
    determine, in its sole discretion. Upon the vesting of any part of the
    Restricted Stock by virtue of the lapse of the Restricted Period, the
    Company will deliver a stock certificate covering the requisite number of
    shares to the Participant whereupon the Participant will be free to hold or
    dispose of such stock at will. The stock certificate(s) evidencing the
    shares covered by the Restricted Stock Award Agreement will be registered on
    the Company's books in the name of the Participant as of the date hereof.
    Physical possession or custody of such stock certificate(s) together with a
    stock power, endorsed in blank, relating thereto will be retained by the
    Company until such time as the shares of stock are fully vested. While in
    its possession, the Company reserves the right to place a legend on the
    stock certificate(s) restricting the transferability of such certificate(s)
    and referring to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) approved by
    the Committee and applicable to the Restricted Stock.

        (b) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement or
    ATTACHMENT A, if Participant is terminated from employment with the Company
    without Cause, the Restricted Stock not yet vested under ATTACHMENT A will
    vest immediately.

        (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event
    of Change of Control, the Restricted Stock not yet vested under
    ATTACHMENT A will vest immediately.

        (d) In the event that the total compensation paid to Participant as
    severance in the event of a Change of Control, taking into account all cash
    severance payments, shares of stock, accelerated vesting of stock options,
    and bonuses, if any (such payments being the "SEVERANCE PAYMENT"), is found
    to constitute "an excess parachute payment" within the meaning of
    Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "CODE"),
    then Anchor Gaming will pay to Participant, in addition to the compensation
    paid as the Severance Payment, an additional amount (the "additional
    amount") which, after reduction for income taxes and excise taxes on the
    additional amount, is sufficient to provide for the payment of any excise
    tax that may be due by Participant on the Severance Payment.

    3.  RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.  The Restricted Stock may not be sold or
otherwise transferred until it is vested. Anchor Gaming is not obligated to
recognize any purported sale or other transfer of the Option or any Restricted
Stock in violation of this Section 3 and, unless it elects to do otherwise, may
treat any such purported sale or transfer as null, void, and of no effect.

    4.  RIGHTS TO BUY BACK RESTRICTED STOCK AND TO REQUIRE PAYBACK OF CERTAIN
PROFITS.

        (a) If the Participant has engaged in any conduct prohibited by
    SECTION 5, Anchor Gaming will have (i) the right to buy back from
    Participant any shares of Restricted Stock then owned by Participant, at a
    purchase price equal to $5.00 per share plus the verified amount of any
    income taxes paid or payable on the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock
    (adjusted to appropriately for any stock split, reverse stock split,
    merger, consolidation, or other similar change in the Common Stock), and
    (ii) the right to require Participant to pay back to Anchor Gaming in
    cash the Net Investment Proceeds with respect to any shares of Restricted
    Stock sold or otherwise transferred by Participant.

                                      3
<PAGE>

        (b) Whenever Anchor Gaming has a right to buy back shares of Restricted
    Stock or to require Participant to pay back to Anchor Gaming Participant's
    Net Investment Proceeds with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock under
    this SECTION 4, Anchor Gaming may exercise its right by notifying
    Participant or the subsequent holder of Anchor Gaming's election to exercise
    its right within the designated exercise period. In the case of a buyback
    under SECTION 4(a), the giving of such notice will give rise to an
    obligation on the part of Participant or the subsequent holder to tender to
    Anchor Gaming, within 10 days, any previously issued certificate
    representing shares of Restricted Stock to be bought back, duly endorsed in
    blank or having a duly executed stock power attached in proper form for
    transfer free and clear of any claim by any other person or entity. If any
    such certificate is not tendered within 10 days, Anchor Gaming may cancel
    any outstanding certificate representing shares to be bought back. Anchor
    Gaming is required to tender the purchase price for shares to be bought back
    under this SECTION 4 within 20 days of giving notice of its election to
    exercise its right to buy back shares. If the person from whom the shares
    are to be bought back has not complied with an obligation to return a
    certificate representing shares to be bought back, however, Anchor Gaming is
    not required to tender the purchase price until 20 days after the
    certificate is duly returned or 20 days after it cancels the certificate,
    whichever occurs first.

    5.  COMPETITION AND NON-DISCLOSURE.  Participant acknowledges that: (i) in
the course and as a result of employment with the Company, Participant will
obtain special training and knowledge and will come in contact with the
Company's current and potential customers, which training, knowledge, and
contacts would provide invaluable benefits to competitors of the Company;
(ii) the Company is continuously developing or receiving Confidential
Information, and that during Participant's employment he or she will receive
Confidential Information from the Company, its customers and suppliers and
special training related to the Company's business methodologies; and
(iii) Participant's employment by Company creates a relationship of trust that
extends to all Confidential Information that becomes known to Participant.
Accordingly, and as a material inducement to Anchor Gaming to grant the
Restricted Stock to Participant and other good and valuable consideration,
Participant agrees that Anchor Gaming, as its sole remedy under this Agreement,
will be entitled to terminate all vesting of the Restricted Stock and to
exercise the rights specified in SECTION 4 if Participant does any of the
following without the prior written consent of the Company:

        (a) while employed by the Company or within one year thereafter:

           (i) directly or indirectly engages in, owns or controls an interest
       in (except as to those investments held at the effective date of this
       agreement or as a passive investor in publicly held companies, i.e.,
       Participant and Participant's spouse or lineal descendants do not own of
       record, or beneficially, an aggregate of more than two percent (2%) of
       any class of outstanding securities) or acts as an officer, director, or
       employee of, or consultant or adviser to, any firm, corporation,
       institution or entity, directly or indirectly in competition with or
       engaged in a business substantially similar to that of the Company in the
       United States or in any foreign country in which the Company during the
       term of the Participant's employment sold, marketed, provided or
       solicited to sell, market or provide products or services, including the
       development, manufacture, sale or marketing of products, services,
       devices, instruments, methods or techniques (or any related services or
       activities) similar to any products, services, devices, instruments,
       methods or techniques that the Company was engaged in the development of,
       manufacturing, selling, or marketing, or had under consideration to do
       the same (whether or not such products, devices, instruments, methods or
       techniques or the technology related thereto were obtained from
       Participant), during the term of the Participant's employment with the
       Company;

                                      4
<PAGE>
           (ii) solicits or performs services, as an employee, independent
       contractor, or otherwise, for any person or entity (including any
       affiliates or subsidiaries of that person or entity) that is or was a
       customer or prospect of the Company during the six months before
       Participant's employment with the Company ended if Participant solicited
       business from or performed services for that customer or prospect while
       employed by Company; or

           (iii) recruits, hires, or assist, directly or indirectly, anyone to
       recruit or hire anyone who was an employee of the Company within the six
       months before Participant's employment with the Company ended; or

    (b) discloses or uses any Confidential Information, except in connection
       with the good faith performance of Participant's duties as an employee;
       or fails to take reasonable precautions against the unauthorized
       disclosure or use of Confidential Information; fails, upon Anchor Gaming'
       request, to execute and comply with a third party's agreement to protect
       its confidential and proprietary information; solicits or induces the
       unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Information; or fails to
       return on Anchor Gaming's request any and all Confidential Information in
       the Participant's care, custody, or control.

    The existence of any claim or cause of action of Participant against the
Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, will not constitute
a defense of the Company's enforcement of the covenants set forth in this
SECTION 5. The Participant hereby submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of
the State of Nevada and federal courts therein for the purposes of any actions
or proceedings instituted by the Company to obtain such injunctive relief.
Participant further acknowledges and agrees that the obligations contained in
SECTION 5 of this Agreement are fair, do not unreasonably restrict Participant's
further employment and business opportunities, and are commensurate with the
compensation arrangements set out in this Agreement. The covenants contained in
SECTION 5 will each be construed as an Agreement independent of any other
provision of this Agreement. Both parties intend to make the covenants of
SECTION 5 binding only to the extent that it may be lawfully done under existing
applicable laws.

    If any court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this
SECTION 5 to be unreasonable as to substantive scope, duration or geographic
scope, then the Participant expressly agrees that, at Anchor's sole discretion,
and in addition to any other remedies at law or equity that may be available to
Anchor Gaming: (i) such provision will be considered to be amended to provide
the broadest scope of protection to the Company that such court would find
reasonable and enforceable or (ii) Anchor Gaming may require that this Agreement
be rescinded.

    This SECTION 5 of this Agreement will survive either termination of the
employment relationship or termination of this Agreement for the full period set
forth in this SECTION 5.

6.  COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS.  Participant agrees that neither
    Participant nor any successor in interest of Participant will sell or
    otherwise transfer any shares of Restricted Stock in any way that might
    result in a violation of any federal or state securities laws or
    regulations. Participant acknowledges and agrees that Anchor Gaming may
    require Participant or any subsequent holder of the any shares of Restricted
    Stock to provide Anchor Gaming, prior to any sale or other transfer, with
    such other representations, commitments, and opinions regarding compliance
    with applicable securities laws and regulations as Anchor Gaming may deem
    necessary or advisable. Anchor Gaming agrees to use its best efforts to
    cause a registration statement covering resales of the Restricted Stock to
    be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to be effective,
    and to list the Restricted Stock on Nasdaq and any other securities exchange
    on which the common stock of Anchor Gaming is listed for trading.

7.  STOCK CERTIFICATES; RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER.  All certificates representing
    shares of Restricted Stock will bear such legends as the Board determines
    are necessary or appropriate. Such legends will be removed at vesting.
    Whether or not certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock have
    been

                                      5
<PAGE>
    issued or delivered, Participant will have all the rights of a shareholder
    of Restricted Stock, including voting, dividend and distribution rights,
    with respect to shares of Restricted Stock owned by Participant.

8.  INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING.  Participant will, upon request by the Company,
    reimburse the Company for, or the Company may withhold from sums or property
    otherwise due or payable to Participant, any amounts the Company is required
    to remit to applicable taxing authorities as income tax withholding with
    respect to any Restricted Stock. If Participant fails to reimburse the
    Company for any such amount when requested, the Company has the right to
    recover that amount by selling or canceling sufficient shares of any
    Restricted Stock held by Participant.

9.  COMPLIANCE WITH PLANS.  Participant acknowledges receipt of a copy of the
    2000 Plan Plan and further acknowledges that this Agreement is entered into,
    and the Option is granted, pursuant to the 2000 Plan. If the provisions of
    the 2000 Plan are inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, the
    provisions of the 2000 Plan supersedes the provisions of this Agreement.

10. NOTICES.  Any notice to Anchor Gaming or the Company that is required or
    permitted by this Agreement will be addressed to the attention of the
    Secretary of Anchor Gaming at its principal office. Any notice to
    Participant that is required or permitted by this Agreement will be
    addressed to Participant at the most recent address for Participant
    reflected in the appropriate records of the Company. Either party may at any
    time change its address for notification purposes by giving the other
    written notice of the new address and the date upon which it will become
    effective. Whenever this Agreement requires or permits any notice from one
    party to another, the notice must be in writing to be effective and, if
    mailed, will be deemed to have been given on the third business day after
    the same is enclosed in an envelope, addressed to the party to be notified
    at the appropriate address, properly stamped, sealed, and deposited in the
    United States mail, and, if mailed to the Company, by certified mail, return
    receipt requested.

11. REMEDIES.  Anchor Gaming is entitled, in addition to any other remedies it
    may have at law or in equity, to temporary and permanent injunctive and
    other equitable relief to enforce the provisions of this Agreement. Any
    action to enforce the provisions of, or relating to, this Agreement may be
    brought in the state or federal courts having jurisdiction in the State of
    Nevada. By signing this Agreement, Participant consents to the personal
    jurisdiction of such courts in any such action.

12. ASSIGNMENT.  This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
    the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives,
    successors, and assigns. However, Participant does not have the power or
    right to assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of Anchor
    Gaming.

13. ATTORNEYS' FEES.  If any legal proceeding is brought to enforce or interpret
    the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to
    reasonable attorneys' fees, costs, and necessary disbursements in addition
    to any other relief to which that party may be entitled.

14. SEVERABILITY.  If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or
    unenforceable for any reason, the validity and enforceability of all other
    provisions of this Agreement will not be affected.

15. HEADINGS.  The section headings used herein are for reference and
    convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

16. GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
    ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE
    OF LAW RULES IN SUCH LAW OR ANY OTHER PRINCIPLE THAT COULD REQUIRE THE
    APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

17. ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  This Agreement, together with the 2000 Plan and any
    procedure adopted by the Board or the Committee under the Plan, constitutes
    the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter
    and may be waived or modified only in writing.
