Amendment Agreement dated as of September 10, 2008

 Exhibit 10.3 
 AMENDMENT AGREEMENT 
 This Amendment
Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of the 10th day of September, 2008, by and among Valley View Downs, LP, a Pennsylvania partnership
(“Partnership”), Centaur Pennsylvania, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company (“Centaur PA”), PR Valley View Downs, L.P., a Pennsylvania limited partnership (“PREIT”), and PREIT-RUBIN, INC., a Delaware corporation
(“Developer”). 
 RECITALS: 
 A. Partnership sought and obtained a harness racing license from the Pennsylvania Harness Racing Commission to operate a race track in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania (“Project”). Partnership sought, but has
been unsuccessful in obtaining, a Category 1 slot license for Alternative Gaming from the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board. As a result, Centaur, Inc., the ultimate parent of Partnership, desires to sell its equity interest in Partnership.

 B. Partnership, Centaur PA and PREIT entered into a Binding Memorandum Of Understanding dated October 7, 2004, which was amended by
the parties thereto and by Developer by Amendment No. 1 to Binding Memorandum of Understanding dated October 1, 2007 (collectively “MOU”), pursuant to which the parties agreed on certain matters, including the scheduled return,
with interest of the Initial PREIT Payment, agreement upon the Termination Payment and its scheduled payment in lieu of certain rights in favor of PREIT and the execution of an agreement for development services and the scheduled payment of the
Development Fee. 
 C. Pursuant to the terms of the MOU, Partnership and Developer entered into a Development Agreement dated October 1,
2007 (“Development Agreement”), pursuant to which Developer agreed to provide certain services in exchange for the Development Fee. 
 D. As a result of regulatory delays in Pennsylvania, Partnership has ceased its development activities with respect to the Project. Therefore, the activities contemplated to be performed by PREIT and Developer will not be required and there
will be insufficient funds to satisfy the payments specified under the MOU and Development Agreement. 
 E. Notwithstanding the stated
considerations and repayments set forth in the MOU and the Development Agreement, the parties desire to establish a mechanism for termination of the MOU and the Development Agreement as well as a discounted payment in lieu of the stated financial
obligations under the MOU and the Development Agreement. 
 F. The Partnership and Centaur PA are each Subsidiary Guarantors of certain loans
to Centaur LLC, which loan agreements are in the process of being amended and restated and require, interalia, that the Project, or equity interests therein, be sold. 
 G. Capitalized Terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings as described in the MOU, the Development Agreement and the Amended
Loan Agreements as defined in Section 5(c) below. 

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of their mutual promises, the parties hereby agree
as follows: 
 1. Definitions. 
 (a) “Capital Transaction” means either (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Partnership, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the partnership interests in Partnership,
(iii) the sale of all or substantially all of the membership interests of Centaur Pennsylvania, LLC, (iv) a merger or related transaction which results in the equivalent of the sale described in items (ii) and (iii), or (v) a
sale of equity interests in Partnership and/or Centaur Pennsylvania, LLC which results in Centaur, LLC owning, directly or indirectly, no more than a 67% interest in Partnership and wherein Partnership has simultaneously entered into a management or
other oversight agreement with an affiliate of the buyer or buyer’s designee, the practical effect of which will be that neither Centaur, LLC nor any affiliate of Centaur, LLC or any principal or employee of Centaur LLC or affiliate thereof, or
any relative of any such principal or employee would retain or receive any material economic value with respect to the Project after the date of such transaction, or (vi) any other transaction pursuant to which substantially all of the economic
benefit of the Project is transferred by sale or contract to any unaffiliated third party. 
 (b) “Outside Closing
Date” means September 30, 2010. 
 (c) “Discount Payment” means the sum of Thirteen Million Dollars
($13,000,000). 
 2. Suspension of Payments. Notwithstanding the scheduled payments identified in the MOU and the Development
Agreement, the parties agree that no payments with respect to the Initial PREIT Payment, the Termination Amount, the Development Fee or otherwise will be payable by the Partnership prior to the Outside Closing Date and all such payments shall be
suspended until that date. In the event that a Capital Transaction does not occur by the Outside Closing Date, then the scheduled dates for payment of the Initial PREIT Payment, the Termination Amount and the Development Fee under the MOU and the
Development Agreement shall resume and be reset such that all suspended payments shall thereafter commence on the day after the Outside Closing Date and shall be thereafter be payable on their respective future reset payment dates. 
 3. Capital Transaction. (a) Partnership shall notify PREIT in writing promptly after the execution of definitive documents respecting a
Capital Transaction that a definitive agreement has been reached. Such notice shall include the identity of the parties, the sale price and the estimated funds available for Permitted Pennsylvania Project Proceeds Payments. Upon request of PREIT,
Partnership shall forward a copy of the executed definitive documents to PREIT. Such definitive documents and all information provided to PREIT relative to such transaction shall be subject to the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement executed
by PREIT in connection with this Agreement. 
  

 - 2 - 

 (b) In the event a Capital Transaction occurs by the Outside Closing Date, then
notwithstanding the amounts scheduled to be paid or reimbursed under the MOU and the Development Agreement, PREIT and Developer agree to accept, in lieu thereof, the Discount Payment in full satisfaction of all financial obligations of Partnership
under the MOU and the Development Agreement, including but not limited to amounts otherwise due respecting the Initial PREIT Payment, the Termination Amount and the Development Fee. The Discount Payment shall be payable in cash on the date of the
consummation of the Capital Transaction. The Discount Payment shall be transmitted via wire transfers and allocated between PREIT and Developer as mutually directed by them to Partnership in writing on or before the date of closing of the Capital
Transaction and, in the absence of mutual agreement and written direction, shall be payable by check jointly to both of them. In exchange for the Discount Payment, Developer and PREIT agree to enter into mutual terminations of the Development
Agreement and MOU, respectively, simultaneously with receipt of payment. 
 4. Application of Proceeds. The net proceeds of the
Pennsylvania Project Sale, to the extent such proceeds are available for Permitted Pennsylvania Project Proceeds Payments, shall be applied first to pay the Discount Payment and the other Permitted Pennsylvania Project Proceeds Payments in full

 (a)
The Racing License is held by Partnership, and Partnership is the applicant for the Gaming License.

9/9/2008) and the Amended and Restated Second Lien Term Loan Agreement (Milbank Draft 9/9/2008) (collectively, the “Amended Loan Agreements”) delivered to PREIT are true and correct copies thereof and are final drafts in all substantial
respects material to PREIT. 
 (d) If Centaur LLC is unable to close under the Amended Loan Agreements, it is extremely likely
that Centaur LLC will cause Partnership and Centaur PA to file for protection under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy laws of the United States. 
 (e) Centaur LLC intends to comply with the provisions of Section 5.21 of each of the Amended Loan Agreements. 
 (f) Centaur LLC has received sufficient commitments from other creditors of Partnership and Centaur PA to reduce their respective obligations to such other creditors that it reasonably expects PREIT and Developer to
receive the full Discount Payment at the closing a Capital Transaction if the net proceeds equal or exceed $150 million. 
 (g) Neither Partnership nor Centaur PA has granted a security interest in the funds available for Permitted Pennsylvania Project Proceeds Payments to any other Person. 
  

 - 3 - 

 6. Covenant. Partnership and Centaur PA agree that if Centaur LLC enters into a further amendment
or modification to the Amended Loan Agreements that would result in a change to the definition of “Permitted Pennsylvania Project Proceeds Payments” to reduce the amount of $20,000,000 described in item (i), to increase the amount of
$130,000,000 in item (b) or that would result in other changes that would prevent or preclude the payment of the Discount Payment upon the closing of a Capital Transaction notwithstanding sales proceeds of $150,000,000 from such Capital
Transaction, then Centaur LLC shall provide a payment guaranty to PREIT and Developer in a form reasonably satisfactory to them of Valley View’s and Centaur PA’s obligations to pay the Discount Payment at the closing of a Capital
Transaction in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 7. Performance. Centaur LLC is entering into this Agreement solely to
agree to use reasonable business efforts to cause Partnership and Centaur PA to comply with their respective agreements hereunder. 
 8.
Acknowledgment. Partnership and Centaur PA acknowledge that PREIT and Developer are entering into this Agreement in reliance on the representations and agreements made by Partnership and Centaur PA herein. 
 9. Agreements Ratified and Confirmed. Except as amended hereby, the MOU and Development Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and
effect. 
 10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first written.

	3.1	Commencement of Participation

	3.2	Continued Participation 

 A Participant in
the Plan shall continue to be a Participant so long as any amount remains credited to his or her Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participation in respect of any calendar year is not a guarantee of participation in respect of any future

 6 

 ARTICLE IV – ELECTIVE AND MATCHING DEFERRALS 
  

	4.1	Elective Deferrals 

 Any individual who
becomes an Eligible Employee at the time he or she is hired by an Employer may, by completing an Election Form and filing it with the Committee within 30 days following the date on which the Committee gives such individual written notice that the
individual is an Eligible Employee, elect to defer a percentage or dollar amount of one or more payments of Compensation, on such terms as the Committee may permit, which are earned by and payable to the Participant after the date on which the
individual files the Election Form. Such election will continue in effect until a new Election Form is completed and takes effect in the next succeeding Plan Year. 
 Any other Eligible Employee may elect to defer a percentage or dollar amount of one or more payments of Compensation, on such terms as the Committee may permit, commencing with Compensation paid in the next succeeding
Plan Year, by completing an Election Form prior to the first day of such succeeding Plan Year. Such election will continue in effect until a new Election Form is completed and takes effect in the next succeeding Plan Year. 
  

	4.2	Elective Deferral Limitations 

 No dollar
limitation exists on the total amount of Compensation that may be deferred under the Plan. However, each component of Compensation is subject to a separate deferral percentage limitation. For each Plan Year, a Participant may not defer more than:

  

	 	•	 	 80% of annual base salary; 

  

	 	•	 	 98% of annual bonus; and 

  

	 	•	 	 80% of commissions. 

  

	4.3	Matching Deferrals 

 The Employer shall
credit to the Account of each Eligible Employee Matching Deferrals equal to the amount of the Elective Deferrals made by such Eligible Employee pursuant to Section 4.1, but in no event greater than 6% of such Eligible Employee’s
Compensation for the Plan Year. 
  

	4.4	Vesting 

 A Participant shall be immediately
vested in, and shall have a nonforfeitable right to, all Elective Deferrals, Matching Deferrals, and all income and gain attributable thereto, credited to his or her Account; provided, however, that the existence of such right shall not be deemed to
vest in any Participant any right, title or interest in or to any specific assets of the Employer. 
  

 7 

 ARTICLE V – ACCOUNTS 
  

	5.1	Accounts 

 The Committee shall establish an
Account for each Participant reflecting Elective Deferrals and Matching Deferrals made for the Participant’s benefit together with any adjustments for income, gain or loss and any payments from the Account. The Committee may cause the Trustee
to maintain and invest separate asset accounts corresponding to each Participant’s Account. The Committee shall establish sub-accounts for each Participant that has more than one election in effect under Section 6.1 and such other
sub-accounts as are necessary for the proper administration of the Plan. The Committee shall periodically, but no less frequently than annually, provide the Participant with a statement of his or her Account reflecting the income, gains and losses
(realized and unrealized), amounts of deferrals, and distributions of such Account since the prior statement. 
  

	5.2	Investments 

 The assets of the Trust shall
be invested in such investments as the Trustee shall determine. The Trustee may (but is not required to) consider the Employer’s or a Participant’s investment preferences when investing the assets attributable to a Participant’s
Account. 
  

 8 

 ARTICLE VI – PAYMENTS 
  

	6.1	Election as to Time and Form of Payment 

 A
Participant shall elect (on the Election Form used to elect to defer Compensation under Section 4.1) the date at which the Elective Deferrals and Matching Deferrals (including any earnings attributable thereto) will commence to be paid in cash
to the Participant. The Participant may elect a specified date or the date that is six months after Termination of Employment. The Participant shall also elect thereon for payments to be paid in either: 
  

	 	a	a single lump-sum payment; or 

  

	 	b.	a series of installments paid over a period elected by the Participant of up to 10 years, the amount of each installment to equal the balance of his or her Account immediately prior
to the installment divided by the number of installments remaining to be paid. The Participant shall elect whether such installments are made annually, semiannually, quarterly or monthly. 

 Such distribution election detailing the time and form of payment will need to be made on an annual basis with respect to each year’s deferral and
will only be effective for Elective Deferrals and Matching Contributions made for the Plan Year beginning after the date of the election. If an election under this Section is not made timely or is deemed invalid by the Committee, the default time of
distribution for such deferral will be six months after Termination of Employment and the default form of payment will be a single-lump sum payment. Except as provided in Sections 6.2, 6.3 or 6.4, payment of a Participant’s Account shall be
made in accordance with the Participant’s elections under this Section 6.1. 
 In accordance with Section 409A of the Code and
the regulations thereunder, prior to December 31, 2008, each Participant shall have the opportunity to revoke their current election on file and make a new distribution election which will apply to their entire Account balance. Amounts
previously scheduled to be distributed in the 2008 calendar year can not be modified and are not eligible for this special unifying election. Furthermore, amounts previously scheduled to be paid after the 2008 calendar year can not be modified to be
paid during the 2008 calendar year, but can be modified to be paid in any calendar year after 2008. The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall establish procedures to implement this special election process consistent with the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder. 
 Notwithstanding the above, upon a Participant’s Termination of
Employment, in the event such Participant’s Account balance is less than $25,000, such Account balance shall be distributed as soon as possible following such Termination of Employment in the form of a single lump-sum payment; provided,
however, such distribution shall be subject to a six month delay. 
  

	6.2	Change of Control 

 Notwithstanding
Section 6.1, as soon as possible following a Change of Control, each Participant shall be paid his or her entire Account balance in a single lump sum. 
  

	6.3	Disability 

 Notwithstanding
Section 6.1, if a Participant becomes Disabled prior to the complete distribution of his or her Account, the balance of the Account shall be paid as soon as practicable to the Participant, in the form elected by the Participant pursuant to
Section 6.1. 
  

	6.4	Death 

 Notwithstanding Section 6.1, if
a Participant dies prior to the complete distribution of his or her Account, the balance of the Account shall be paid as soon as practicable to the Participant’s designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries, elected by the Participant pursuant to
Section 7. 
  

	6.5	Taxes  

 All federal, state or local taxes
that the Committee determines are required to be withheld from any payments made pursuant to this Article VI shall be withheld. 
  

 9 

 ARTICLE VII – BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION 
  

	7.1	Designation 

 Upon enrollment in the Plan,
each Participant shall file with the Committee a written designation of one or more persons as the Beneficiary who shall be entitled to receive the amount, if any, payable under the Plan upon the Participant’s death. A Participant may, from
time to time, revoke or change his or her Beneficiary designation without the consent of any prior Beneficiary by filing a new such designation with the Committee on a form designated by the Committee for such purpose. The most recent such
designation received by the Committee shall be controlling and shall be effective upon receipt and acceptance by the Committee; provided, however, that no designation, or change or revocation thereof, shall be effective unless received by the
Committee prior to the Participant’s death. 
  

	7.2	Failure to Designate Beneficiary 

 If no such
Beneficiary designation is in effect at the time of a Participant’s death, or if no designated Beneficiary survives the Participant, or if such designation conflicts with law, the Participant’s estate shall be deemed to have been
designated as the Beneficiary and shall receive the payment of the amount, if any, payable under the Plan upon the Participant’s death. If the Committee is in doubt as to the right of any person to receive such amount, the Committee may retain
such amount, without liability for any interest thereon, until the rights thereto are determined, or the Committee may pay such amount into any court of appropriate jurisdiction and such payment shall be a complete discharge of the obligations of
the Employer under the Plan. 
  

	7.3	Payment to Representatives 

 If the Committee
determines that a Participant or Beneficiary is legally incapable of giving valid receipt and discharge for the payment due from this Plan, such amounts shall be paid to a duly appointed and acting guardian, if any. If no such guardian is appointed
and acting, the Committee may retain such amount, without liability for any interest thereon, until the rights thereto are determined, or the Committee may pay such amount into any court of appropriate jurisdiction on behalf of the Participant or
Beneficiary and such payment shall be a complete discharge of the obligations of the Employer under the Plan. 
  

 10 

 ARTICLE VIII – PLAN ADMINISTRATION 
  

	8.1	Powers and Duties of the Committee 

 The
Committee shall have absolute discretion with respect to the operation, interpretation and administration of the Plan. The Committee's powers and duties shall include, but not be limited to: 
  

	 	a)	Establishing Accounts for Participants; 

  

	 	b)	Determining eligibility for, and amount of, distributions from the Plan; 

  

	 	c)	Adopting, interpreting, altering, amending or revoking rules and regulations necessary to administer the Plan; 

  

	 	d)	Delegating ministerial duties and employing outside professionals as may be required; and 

  

	 	e)	Entering into agreements or taking such other actions on behalf of the Employer as are necessary to implement the Plan. 

 Participants are not prohibited from serving as members of the Committee. If an individual is both a Participant and a member of the Committee, such
individual is prohibited from making any decision with respect to his or her own participation in, or individual benefits under, the Plan. Any action of the Committee may be taken by a vote or written consent of the majority of the Committee members
entitled to act. Any Committee member shall be entitled to represent the Committee, including the signing of any certificate or other written direction, with regard to any action approved by the Committee. 
  

	8.2	Information  

 To enable the Committee to
perform its functions, the Employer shall supply full and timely information to the Committee on all matters relating to the compensation of Participants, their employment, retirement, death, termination of employment, and such other pertinent facts
as the Committee may require. 
  

	8.3	Claims Procedure 

 In the event a claim by a
Participant relating to the amount of any distribution is denied, such person will be given written notice by the Committee of such denial, which shall set forth the reason for denial. The Participant may, within sixty (60) days after receiving
the notice, request a review of such denial by filing notice in writing with the Committee. The Committee, in its discretion, may request a meeting with the Participant to clarify any matters it deems pertinent. The Committee will render a written
decision within sixty (60) days after receipt of such request, stating the reason for its decision. If the Committee is unable to respond within sixty (60) days, an additional sixty (60) days may be taken by the Committee to respond.
The Participant will be notified if the additional time is necessary by the end of the initial sixty (60) day period. The determination of the Committee as to any disputed questions or issues arising under the Plan and all interpretations,
determinations and decisions of the Committee with respect to any claim hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons. 
  

 11 

 ARTICLE IX – AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 
  

	9.1	Amendments  

 Except as expressly provided in
Section 9.3 hereof, the Company, in its sole discretion, by action of its Board or other governing body charged with the management of the Company, or its designee, may amend the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time. 
  

	9.2	Termination  

 This Plan is strictly a
voluntary undertaking on the part of the Employer and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Employer and any Eligible Employee (or any other employee) or a consideration for, or an inducement or condition of employment for, the
performance of the services by any Eligible Employee (or other employee). The Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time, subject to Section 9.3, by an instrument in writing which has been executed on the Company’s behalf
by its duly authorized officer. Upon termination, the Company may elect to (a) continue to maintain the Plan to pay benefits hereunder as they become due as if the Plan had not terminated or (b) pay to Participants (or their beneficiaries)
the balance of their Accounts no sooner than twelve months and no later then 24 months after the Plan termination is effective. 
 For
purposes of the preceding sentence, in the event the Company chooses to implement clause (b), such termination and liquidation of the Plan shall be subject to the following limitations: 
  

	 	(1)	The termination and liquidation may not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Company or the Employer; 

  

	 	(2)	The Employer must terminate and liquidate all other plans, programs and arrangements it sponsors that would be aggregated with the Plan under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(c) if any

	10.4	Employment 

 The adoption and maintenance of
this Plan does not constitute a contract between the Employer and any Participant and is not consideration for the employment of any person. Nothing contained herein gives any Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Employer or

	10.5	Indemnity of Committee 

 The Employer
indemnifies and holds harmless the Committee and its designees from and against any and all losses resulting from any liability to which the Committee may be subjected by reason of any act or conduct (except willful misconduct or gross negligence)

 ARTICLE XI – FUNDING 
  

	11.1	Unfunded Plan 

 This Plan is intended to be
unfunded for tax purposes and all distributions hereunder shall be made out of the general assets of the Employer. No Participant or Beneficiary shall have any right, title, interest, or claim in or to any assets of the Employer other than as an
unsecured creditor. The Plan constitutes only an unsecured commitment by the Employer to pay benefits to the extent, and subject to the limitations, provided for herein. Although, this Plan constitutes an “employee benefit plan” within the
meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), it is intended to cover only a select group of management or highly compensated employees pursuant to Sections 201, 301 and 401 of ERISA.

  

	11.2	Trust 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Employer has the discretion to contribute to an irrevocable grantor trust amounts allocated to a Participant’s Account. The assets of such Trust shall be available to the creditors of the Employer in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency. To
the extent of the Trust assets, amounts due under the Plan shall be payable first from such Trust to Participants before any claim is made against the Employer. The Committee may provide direction to the Trustee or custodian on behalf of the
Employer as it deems necessary to provide for the proper distribution of benefits from the Trust.
