statements of the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company, in
response to changes in applicable laws or regulations or to account for items

any Qualified Performance-Based Awards such adjustment shall be only to the
extent it does not result in the loss of the otherwise available exemption of
such award under Section 162(m) of the Code.

 

All decisions,
determinations and interpretations of the Committee shall be final and binding
on all persons, including the Company and the Participant (or any person
claiming any rights under the Plan from or through any Participant).

 

Subject to Section 162(m) of

Committee may delegate all or any part of its authority under the Plan to any
officer or officers of the Company.

 

4.     Eligibility. Awards may be granted to
Participants in the sole discretion of the Committee. In determining the
persons to whom Awards shall be granted and the Performance Goals relating to
each Award, the Committee shall take into account such factors as the Committee
shall deem relevant in connection with accomplishing the purposes of the Plan.

 

5.     Terms of Awards. Awards granted pursuant to
the Plan shall be communicated to Participants in such form as the Committee
shall from time to time approve and the terms and conditions of such Awards
shall be set forth therein.

 

(a)   In General. On or prior to
the earlier of the 90th day after the commencement of a Performance Period
or the date on which 25% of a Performance Period has elapsed, the Committee
shall specify in writing, by resolution of the Committee or other appropriate
action, the Participants for such Performance Period and the Performance Goals applicable
to each Award for each Participant with respect to such Performance Period.
Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in connection with specified
terminations of employment, payment in respect of Awards shall be made only if
and to the extent the Performance Goals with respect to such Performance Period
are attained.

 

(b)   Performance Goals. The
Committee may grant Awards subject to Performance Goals that are either
Qualified Performance-Based Awards or are not Qualified Performance-Based
Awards. If the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations,
corporate structure or capital structure of the Company, or the manner in which
it conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render the
Performance Goals unsuitable, the Committee may in its discretion modify such
Performance Goals or the related level or levels of achievement, in whole or in
part, as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable, except in the case of a
Qualified Performance-Based Award (other than in connection with a Change in
Control) where such action would result in the loss of the otherwise available
exemption of the award under Section 162(m) of the Code. In such
case, the Committee will not make any modification of the Performance Goals or
the level or levels of achievement with respect to such Covered Employee.

(c)   Special Provisions Regarding
Qualified Performance-Based Awards. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 5, the maximum amount that may be paid to a
Covered Employee under the Plan with respect to a Qualified Performance-Based
Award is $5 million. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in
determining the amount of payment under a Qualified Performance-Based Award in
respect of a Performance Period, the Committee may cancel a Qualified
Performance-Based Award or reduce the amount payable under a Qualified
Performance-Based Award that was otherwise earned during a Performance Period
through the use of Negative Discretion if, in the Committee’s sole discretion,
such cancellation or reduction is appropriate. In no event shall any
discretionary authority granted to the Committee by the Plan including, but not
limited to, Negative Discretion, be used to (i) grant or provide payment
in respect of Qualified Performance-Based Awards for a Performance Period if
the Performance Goals for such Performance Period have not been attained or (b) increase
a Qualified Performance-Based Award above the maximum amount payable under this
Section 5(c).

 

(d)   Time and Form of
Payment. All payments in respect of Awards granted under this Plan shall be
made in cash on or before March 15 of the year following the year in which
the Performance Period ends.

 

6.     Section 409A of the Code. Awards under
the Plan are intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and all
Awards shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code
and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued
thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance
that may be issued after the effective date of the Plan. Notwithstanding any
provision of the Plan or any Award to the contrary, in the event that the
Committee determines that any Award may or does not comply with Section 409A
of the Code, the Company may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the affected
Award (without Participant consent) or adopt other policies and procedures
(including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or
take any other actions, that the Committee determines are necessary or
appropriate to (i) exempt the Plan and any Award from the application of Section 409A
of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided
with respect to Award, or (ii) comply with the requirements of Section 409A
of the Code.

 

Notwithstanding any
provisions of this Plan to the contrary, if a Participant is a “specified
employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and determined
pursuant to policies adopted by the Company) on his date of separation from
service and if any portion of an Award to be received by the Participant upon
his or her separation from service would be considered deferred compensation
under Section 409A of the Code, amounts of deferred compensation that
would otherwise be payable pursuant to this Plan during the six-month period
immediately following the Participant’s separation from service will instead be
paid or made available on the earlier of (i) the first day of the seventh
month following the date of the Participant’s separation from service and (ii) the
Participant’s death.

 

7.     General Provisions.

 

(a)   Compliance with Legal
Requirements. The Plan and the granting and payment of Awards and the other
obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable
federal and state laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by
any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required.

 

(b)   Nontransferability. Awards
shall not be transferable by a Participant except upon the Participant’s death
following the end of the Performance Period but prior to the date payment is
made, in which case the Award shall be transferable in accordance with any
beneficiary designation made by the Participant in accordance with Section 7(l) below
or, in the absence thereof, by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

 

4

 

(c)   No Right To Continued
Employment. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award granted pursuant hereto shall
confer upon any Participant the right to continue in the employ of the Company
or to be entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in the Plan or
to interfere with or limit in any way whatever rights otherwise exist of the
Company to terminate such Participant’s employment or change such Participant’s
remuneration.

 

(d)   Withholding Taxes. Where a
Participant or other person is entitled to receive a payment pursuant to an
Award hereunder, the Company shall have the right either to deduct from the
payment, or to require the Participant or such other person to pay to the
Company prior to delivery of such payment, an amount sufficient to satisfy any
federal, state, local or other withholding tax requirements related thereto.

 

(e)   Amendment, Termination and
Duration of the Plan. The Board or the Committee may at any time and from time
to time alter, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan in whole or in part;
provided that, no amendment that requires shareholder approval in order for the
Plan to continue to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code shall be
effective unless the same shall be approved by the requisite vote of the
shareholders of the Company. The Board or the Committee may amend the terms of
any Award theretofore granted under this Plan prospectively or retroactively,
except in the case of a Qualified Performance-Based Award (other than in
connection with the Participant’s death or Disability, or a Change in Control)
where such action would result in the loss of the otherwise available exemption
of the award under Section 162(m) of the Code. In such case, the
Board will not make any modification of the Performance Goals or the level or
levels of achievement with respect to such Qualified Performance-Based Award.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall affect adversely any of the
rights of any Participant under any Award following the end of the Performance
Period to which such Award relates.

 

(f)    Participant Rights. No
Participant shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and
there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment for Participants.

 

(g)   Termination of Employment.

 

(i)    Unless otherwise provided by
the Committee, and except as set forth in subparagraph (ii) of this Section 7(g),
a Participant must be actively employed by the Company or one of its Affiliates
at the end of the Performance Period in order to be eligible to receive payment
in respect of such Award.

 

(ii)   Unless otherwise provided by
the Committee, if a Participant’s employment is terminated as result of death
or Disability prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Participant’s
Award shall be cancelled and in respect of his or her cancelled Award the
Participant shall receive a pro rata portion of the Award as determined by the
Committee.

 

(h)   Change in Control.
Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, upon a Change in
Control, unless otherwise determined by the Committee with respect to an Award
at the time of its grant, each outstanding Award shall be cancelled and in respect
of his or her cancelled Award a Participant shall receive a pro rata portion of
the Award. Such portion shall be calculated by multiplying the target amount of
the Award by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days completed
in the Performance Period prior to the Change in Control and the denominator of
which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. The pro rata
portion of the Award shall be paid in cash as soon as practicable following the
Change in Control. In addition, if any Award which a Participant earned under
the Plan during any Performance Period which ended prior to a Change in Control
has neither been paid to the Participant nor credited to such Participant under
a deferred compensation plan

 

5

 

maintained or sponsored by
the Company or an Affiliate prior to the Change in Control, such Award shall be
paid to the Participant within thirty (30) days following such Change in
Control and in no event later than the date specified in Section 5(d).

 

(i)    Unfunded Status of Awards.
The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and
deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a
Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award
shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a
general creditor of the Company.

 

(j)    Governing Law. The Plan and
all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by
the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of laws
principles thereof.

 

(k)   Effective Date. The Plan
shall take effect upon its adoption by the Board; provided, however, that the
Plan shall be subject to the requisite approval of the shareholders of the
Company in order to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code. In the
absence of such approval, any Qualified Performance-Based Awards made pursuant
to the Plan shall be null and void.

 

(l)    Beneficiary. A Participant
may file with the Committee a written designation of a beneficiary on such form
as may be prescribed by the Committee and may, from time to time, amend or
revoke such designation; provided, that, in the event the Participant does not
designate a beneficiary with respect to a particular Award, the Participant’s
most recent beneficiary designation form on file with the Company shall
control. If no designated beneficiary survives the Participant and an Award is
payable to the Participant’s beneficiary pursuant to Section 7(b), the
Participant’s estate shall be deemed to be the grantee’s beneficiary.

 

(m)  Interpretation. The Plan is
designed and intended to comply, to the extent applicable, with Section 162(m) of
the Code, and all provisions hereof shall be construed in a manner to so comply.

THIS
AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO TRADE CREDIT FACILITY AGREEMENT AND RELATED NOTE (this “Amendment”)
is entered into as of May 25, 2010 by and between Elixir Gaming
Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation formerly known as VendingData
Corporation (the “Borrower”), and
Elixir Group Limited, a Hong Kong company and successor in interest to Elixir
International Limited (the “Lender”).  All capitalized terms used in this Amendment
not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in
the Facility Agreement (as defined in the recitals below).

 

R E C I T A L S

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower entered into a Trade Credit Facility Agreement
with Elixir International Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Lender (“Elixir International”) dated April 21, 2008, as amended
by way of an Amendment (“Amendment No. 1”)
to Trade Credit Facility Agreement and Related Note dated November 6, 2008
and a further Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”)
to Trade Credit Facility Agreement and Related Note dated July 24, 2009
(collectively, the “Facility Agreement”).

 

WHEREAS, upon entering into the Amendment No. 1, the Borrower
issued to Elixir International a promissory note in the principal amount of
$12,069,136 (the “First Amended Note”).
The First Amended Note extinguished a then existing obligation of the Borrower
under a promissory note referred to as the Initial Note. Pursuant to the terms
of the First Amended Note, the Borrower is obligated to repay the principal,
plus any accrued interest thereon, in 24 equal monthly installments commencing on January 1,
2009.

 

WHEREAS, upon entering into the Amendment No. 2, the Borrower
issued to Elixir International a promissory note in the principal amount of
$9,163,809 (the “Second Amended Note”). The Second
Amended Note extinguished a then existing obligation of the Borrower under the
First Amended Note. Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended Note, Elixir
International granted the Borrower a deferral of all repayments of
principal and interest under the Facility Agreement until July 1, 2010
provided that interest at the rate of 5% continues to accrue on the said
principal balance of $9,163,809. The repayment
of the principal balance and interest accrued thereon shall be repaid in 18
equal monthly installments commencing on July 1, 2010.

 

WHEREAS, on April 20, 2010, in relation to the disposal of Elixir
International by the Lender, Elixir International assigned and transferred all
its rights and obligations under the Facility Agreement and the Second Amended
Note to the Lender.

 

WHEREAS, as of the date of June 30, 2010,
the principal balance under the Second Amended Note shall remain in the total
amount of $9,163,809 (the “Outstanding Principal”)
and the total outstanding interest accrued thereon shall be $458,190.46 (the “Accrued Interest”).

 

WHEREAS,
the Borrower has requested the Lender, and the Lender has agreed, to further
restructure the Borrower’s obligations under the Second Amended Note.

 

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Lender now wish to effect the
restructuring of the repayment terms of the Second Amended Note by the issuance
of a new promissory note by the Borrower in exchange for the cancellation of
the Second Amended Note as set forth in this Amendment, and to further amend
the terms of the Facility Agreement as set forth in this Amendment.

 

A G R E E M E N T

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants,
obligations and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable

follows:

 

1.             1.1 Repayment of Accrued
Interest. The Borrower
shall repay the Accrued Interest in full in one lump sum payment to the Lender
on July 1, 2010.

 

1.2
Exchange of Further Revised Note for the Second Amended Note.  Subject to the repayment of the Accrued
Interest by the Borrower and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein,
the Lender agrees to surrender the Second Amended Note for cancellation in
exchange for the issuance by the Borrower of a new promissory note (a draft
form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A) with the following terms
(the “Further Revised Note”):

 

A.            The Further
Revised Note shall be in the Outstanding Principal amount, which shall be
repaid in 18 equal monthly installments commencing from July 1, 2011;

 

B.            Interest on the
Outstanding Principal amount under the Further Revised Note will accrue at a
rate equal to five percent (5%) per annum, with interest to be calculated on
the basis of 365 days in a year, provided that no interest shall accrue on the
accrued interest or any part of the principal that has been repaid; and

 

C.            Interest at the
rate set out in subpart (B) above shall be paid monthly in arrears on the
first day of the immediate following calendar month, with the first interest
payment to be made on August 1, 2010.

 

2.             Amendments to the Facility
Agreement.

 

A.            The parties
agree that the definition of “Term” in Section 1 of the Facility Agreement
is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

 

“Term” means a period from the date of this
Agreement until December 1, 2012.

 

B.            The parties
further agree that Section 2.2 of the Facility Agreement is hereby deleted
in its entirety and replaced by the following:

Borrower agrees to repay the principal amount of all Advances, plus accrued
interest thereon, at such time, in such

 

2

 

manner and at such
interest rate as set forth in the Amendment No. 3 to Trade Credit Facility
Agreement and Related Note dated May 25, 2010.”

 

3.             Acknowledgement by the
Parties.  For the avoidance of doubt,
the parties acknowledge and agree that :

 

A.            No repayment of
any unpaid principal balance under the Further Revised Note shall be due until July 1,
2011; and

 

B.            The Lender
agrees that it will not make any demand for immediate payment of any
outstanding principal amount under the Further Revised Note save if there is
either (i) an Event of Default; or (ii) Change of Control (subject to
any waiver by the Lender in its sole and absolute discretion).

 

4.             No Further Modifications. 
Except as specifically set forth herein, nothing in this Amendment shall
be construed to enlarge, restrict, or otherwise modify the terms of the
Facility Agreement or the respective duties and obligations of the parties
thereto.

 

5.             Authorization;
Enforceability.  Other than
as set forth in this Amendment, each of the Borrower and the Lender represents
to the other that: (i) it has all corporate right, power and authority to
enter into this Amendment and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereunder; and (ii) the execution and delivery by it of this Amendment and
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder will not result in
the violation by it of any law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment or decree
of any court or governmental authority to or by which it is bound, or of any
provision of its organizational documents; and (iii) no consent, approval,
authorization or other order of any governmental authority or other third party
is required to be obtained by it in connection with the authorization,
execution and delivery of this Amendment.

 

6              Miscellaneous.

 

6.1           Amendments and Waivers.  This Amendment, the Amendment No. 1, the
Amendment No.2  and the Facility

such subject matter.  This Amendment or
any provision hereof may be (i) amended only by mutual written agreement
of the Borrower and the Lender or (ii) waived only by written agreement of
the waiving party.

Advances and all payments of principal will be recorded by the Holder in its
