        Amendment No. 8, dated as of September 30, 2003, to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, dated as of April 20, 1999 (as amended, supplemented
or modified from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"), by and between NWH, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Lender" or "National"), and Electronic Network Systems, Inc. (f/k/a Electronic
Data Submission Systems, Inc.), a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"). 

        WHEREAS,
pursuant to the Loan Agreement, Borrower currently owes Lender, among other amounts, $107,199 in accrued and unpaid interest for the months of June, July, August and September
of 2003 (the "Accrued Interest Amount"); 

        WHEREAS,
Lender has agreed to pay to Borrower the amount of $61,207 (such amount, the current balance of the "Intercompany Account"), consisting of (a) $16,207 for certain
software implementation costs and (b) $45,000 for a legal settlement incurred by Borrower; 

        WHEREAS,
Borrower and Lender wish to (a) offset the Accrued Interest Amount owed by Borrower to Lender against the balance of the Intercompany Account and (b) amend the
terms of the Loan Agreement to extend the maturity of the Loans; 

        NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, representations and warranties contained herein, and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the parties hereto hereby agree
that: 

        1.     The
obligation of Lender to pay the balance of the Intercompany Account to Borrower be, and it hereby is, terminated and satisfied in full, and the Accrued Interest
Amount owed by Borrower to Lender under the Loan Agreement be, and it hereby is, permanently reduced by the balance of the Intercompany Account, such that the accrued and unpaid interest owed by
Borrower to Lender under the Loan Agreement in respect of the months of June, July, August and September of 2003 shall be $45,992 as of the date hereof. Notwithstanding any provision of the Loan
Agreement to the contrary, Lender hereby agrees that the Accrued Interest Amount and all balances outstanding under the Loan Agreement from June 1, 2003 until December 31, 2003 shall
bear interest, in the manner provided in the Loan Agreement, at a fixed rate of five percent (5%) per annum, regardless of whether such interest is paid in cash at the end of each calendar quarter or
paid by means of a Loan as of the due date of such interest. Interest on the Accrued Interest Amount and any other unpaid interest on any Loan will not be charged if such accrued interest is paid by
October 31, 2003. 

        2.     Section 2.5(a)
of the Loan Agreement be, and it hereby is, amended to read, in its entirety, as follows: 

        (a)   Subject
to earlier prepayment as herein provided or as provided in the Initial Note, the Borrower shall pay to National the aggregate principal amount of the Loans in
respect of the Initial Commitment outstanding on December 31, 2005. Subject to earlier prepayment as herein provided or as provided in the Bridge Note, the Borrower shall pay to National the
aggregate principal amount of the Loans in respect of the Bridge Commitment and Accrued Interest on December 31, 2005. Subject to earlier prepayment as herein provided or as provided in the
Additional Note, the Borrower shall pay to National the aggregate principal amount of the Loans in respect of the Additional Commitment on December 31, 2005. 

        3.     Except
as expressly amended hereby, all terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and all other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect. All collateral security
and guarantees in connection with the Loan Agreement and/or the Loan Documents are hereby confirmed and ratified in all respects. The execution, delivery and performance of this amendment has been
duly authorized by the Borrower and is the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms. 

 

        4.     The
Lender reserves all of Lender's rights with respect to any breaches, defaults, or other matters in existence in connection with the Loan Agreement, and the execution
and delivery of this Amendment No. 8 shall not affect any of the rights of Lender with respect thereto. 

        5.     Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Loan Agreement. 

        6.     Each
of the parties hereto (i) acknowledges that Hahn & Hessen LLP has acted, and from time to time continues to act, as counsel to Lender, or affiliates
thereof, as well as to Borrower, (ii) consents to the representation of the Borrower and such other representation of Lender by Hahn & Hessen LLP and (iii) waives any conflicts of
interest claim which may arise therefrom.

EXHIBIT 10.21  

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

[Paul Meyer]  

        THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into this 24th day of September 2003, by and between Shuffle
Master, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the "Company"), and Paul Meyer (the "Employee"), a resident of the State of Florida. 

RECITALS:  

        A.    The
Company is in the business of developing, manufacturing, distributing and otherwise commercializing gaming equipment, games, and operating systems for gaming
equipment and related products and services throughout the United States and in Canada and other countries (the "Business"). 

        B.    Company
and Employee want to create an at-will employment relationship that protects the Company with appropriate confidentiality and non-compete
covenants, and compensates and rewards the Employee for performing his obligations for the full term of this contract or such shorter term, as it may be determined in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. 

        C.    The
Company and Employee desire that Employee be employed by the Company on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

 
 

AGREEMENT    
    

        In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, Employee and the Company agree as follows: 

        1.     Employment.    The Company hereby employs Employee as its President, reporting to the Chief Executive Officer
and Chairman of the Board of the Company. Employee shall perform the normal duties of that position. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Employee's full-time employment under this
Agreement with the Company is for a term of two (2)years (the "Term"), beginning October 27, 2003 (the "Commencement Date"), through October 31, 2005. 

        2.     Salary, Bonus and Benefits. 

	a.
	Upon
execution of this Agreement, Employee shall be paid a sign-on bonus of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000.00). From the Commencement Date through October 31,
2004, Employee shall be paid an annual base salary of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00), paid in the same intervals as other Employees of the Company. If Employee is employed through
October 31, 2004, Employee will be eligible to receive an executive bonus in accordance with the terms and conditions of the executive bonus program authorized by the Board of Directors of the
Company (the "Board") for other senior management executives of the Company for fiscal year 2004, in a range of percentages, but with a target bonus of 50% of Employee's base salary.

	b.
	During
the second year of this Agreement, Employee will receive an annual base salary of no less than his annual base salary for the first year of this Agreement, and will also be
eligible to participate in an executive bonus program and/or in an individual performance bonus program as authorized by the Board.

	c.
	Employee
shall receive stock option grants to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock applicable for the first year of this Agreement, as determined by the 

1

 

Company's
Board of Directors. Future stock option grants will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors. 

	d.
	The
Company agrees to provide Employee with the same benefits it provides the other members of its senior management executive team. Employee will not, however, be eligible to
participate in the Company's non-executive bonus program.

	e.
	All
stock options granted at any time to Employee shall vest in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable grant by the Board (i.e., in increments of 25%
after each 12 months of continuous employment) and as determined by the Board, otherwise may be applicable, with any relevant terms and conditions of the 2002 Stock Option Plan as amended (the
"Plan").

	f.
	Employee's
salary is set in the expectation that (except for vacation days and holidays) Employee's full time will be devoted to Employee's duties hereunder.

	g.
	During
Employee's employment with the Company, the Company will promptly pay or reimburse Employee for reasonable travel, entertainment and other expenses incurred by Employee in the
furtherance of or in connection with the performance of Employee's duties. Such reimbursement will be in accordance with Company policies in existence from time to time.

	h.
	A
relocation reimbursement will be provided in order to allow Employee to move from Florida to Las Vegas. The relocation expenses, not to exceed $45,000, shall be for actual closing
costs related to the sale of Employee's present home, as well as the actual, verifiable and reasonable expenses of moving Employee's household belongings, plus transportation for Employee and his
family from Florida to Las Vegas. If, prior to October 31, 2004, Employee leaves the Company's employment voluntarily (or is terminated with cause), then Employee agrees to reimburse the
Company for all of the costs of the relocation paid by the Company. Until Employee's Florida residence sells, the Company will also cover up to six months of Employee's actual, out of pocket temporary
Las Vegas housing costs (i.e., rent or mortgage payment), or $6,000, whichever is less. In addition, the Company will "gross-up" the portion of reimbursed relocation expenses, if any, that
are paid to Employee under this paragraph 2(h) if, and only to the extent that Employee:

	i.
	is
taxed on such portion of reimbursed relocation expenses; and

	ii.
	does
not otherwise receive a tax deduction benefit or credit in connection with such portion of reimbursed relocation expenses. 

        3.     Outside Services or Consulting.    Employee shall devote Employee's full professional time and best professional
efforts to the Company. Employee may render other professional or consulting services to other persons or businesses from time to time during the Term, only if Employee meets all of the following
requirements: 

	a.
	The
services do not interfere in any manner with the Employee's ability to fulfill all of his duties and obligations to the Company.

	b.
	The
services are not rendered to any business which may compete with the Company in any area of the Business or do not otherwise violate paragraph 4 hereof.

	c.
	The
services do not relate to any products or services, which form part of the Business.

	d.
	Employee
informs and obtains the consent of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. 

2

 

        4.     Non-competition.    In consideration of the provisions of this Agreement, Employee hereby agrees
that he shall not, during the term of his full-time employment and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter: 

	a.
	Directly
or indirectly own, manage, operate, participate in, consult with or work for any business, which is engaged in the Business anywhere in the United States or Canada.

	b.
	Either
alone or in conjunction with any other person, partnership or business, directly or indirectly, solicit, hire, or divert or attempt to solicit, hire or divert any of the
Employees, independent contractors, or agents of the Company (or its affiliates or successors) to work for or represent any competitor of the Company (or its affiliates or successors), or to call upon
any of the customers of the Company (or its affiliates or successors).

	c.
	Directly
or indirectly provide any services to any person, company or entity, which is engaged in the Business anywhere in the United States or Canada. 

        5.     Confidentiality; Inventions.

	a.
	Employee
shall fully and promptly disclose to the Company all inventions, discoveries, software and writings that Employee may make, conceive, discover, develop or reduce to practice
either solely or jointly with others during Employee's employment with the Company, whether or not during usual work hours. Employee agrees that all such inventions, discoveries, software and writing
shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Company, and Employee hereby agrees to assign, and hereby assigns all of Employee's right, title and interest in and to any such inventions,
discoveries, software and writings to the Company. Employee agrees to keep complete records of such inventions, discoveries, software and writings, which records shall be and remain the sole property
of the Company, and to execute and deliver, either during or after Employee's employment with the Company, such documents as the Company shall deem necessary or desirable to obtain such letters
patent, utility models, inventor's certificates, copyrights, trademarks or other appropriate legal rights of the United States and foreign countries as the Company may, in its sole discretion, elect,
and to vest title thereto in the Company, its successors, assigns, or nominees.

	b.
	"Inventions,"
as used herein, shall include inventions, discoveries, improvements, ideas and conceptions, developments and designs, whether or not patentable, tested, reduced to
practice, subject to copyright or other rights or forms of protection, or relating to data processing, communications, computer software systems, programs and procedures.

	c.
	Employee
understands that all copyrightable work that Employee may create while employed by the Company is a "work made for hire," and that the Company is the owner of the copyright
therein. Employee hereby assigns all right, title and interest to the copyright therein to the Company.

	d.
	Employee
has no inventions, improvements, discoveries, software or writings useful to the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates in the normal course of business, which were
conceived, made or written prior to the date of this Agreement and which relate to the Business.

	e.
	Employee
will not publish or otherwise disclose, either during or after Employee's employment with the Company, any published or proprietary or confidential information or secret
relating to the Company, the Business, the Company's operations or the Company's products or services. Employee will not publish or otherwise disclose proprietary or confidential information of others
to which Employee has had access or obtained knowledge in the course of Employee's employment with the Company. Upon termination of Employee's employment with the Company, Employee will not, without
the prior written consent of the 

3

 

Company,
retain or take with Employee any drawing, writing or other record in any form or nature which relates to any of the foregoing. 

	f.
	Employee
understands that Employee's employment with the Company creates a relationship of trust and confidence between Employee and the Company. Employee understands that Employee may
encounter information in the performance of Employee's duties that is confidential to the Company or its customers. For the Term hereof, and until the information falls into the public domain,
Employee agrees to maintain in confidence all information pertaining to the Business or the Company to which Employee has access including, but not limited to, information relating to the Company's
products, inventions, trade secrets, know how, systems, formulas, processes, compositions, customer information and lists, research projects, data processing and computer software techniques, programs
and systems, costs, sales volume or strategy, pricing, profitability, plans, marketing strategy, expansion or acquisition or divestiture plans or strategy and information of similar nature received
from others with whom the Company does business. Employee agrees not to use, communicate or disclose or authorize any other person to use, communicate or disclose such information orally, in writing,
or by publication, either during Employee's employment with the Company or thereafter except as expressly authorized in writing by the Company unless and until such information becomes generally known
in the relevant trade to which it relates without fault on Employee's part, or as required by law. 

        6.     Termination or Non-Extension by Company Without Just Cause

	a.
	Employee's
employment by the Company is "at will" therefore, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and notwithstanding the Term hereof, the Company may terminate Employee's
full-time employment at any time either with or without just cause. In the event of any termination of Employee's full-time employment with the Company without just cause, or
in the event that Employee's full-time employment is not extended or renewed beyond the Term on terms at least as favorable to Employee as Employee is receiving during the last year of the
Term, then Employee will remain bound to the covenants not to compete and confidentiality obligations of paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Agreement, according to their terms, and each one of the following
shall apply:

	i.
	Employee
shall be paid an amount equal to one year of his then annual base salary paid over a period of twelve (12) months from Employee's termination in equal
monthly installments and at the same intervals as other Employees of the Company are then being paid their base salaries;

	ii.
	Employee
shall continue to receive, during the twelve (12) months from Employee's termination, all medical insurance and any other benefits or insurance coverages
which Employee would have received had his employment not been so terminated, or not extended, provided however, if the Employee is not eligible for said medical insurance, the Company shall pay the
COBRA premiums for continuation coverage during the said twelve (12) month period;

	iii.
	Notwithstanding
anything else contained herein to the contrary, during the 12-month period referred to in this paragraph 6, Employee shall remain a
part-time employee of the Company's and, subject to Employee's other professional duties, shall be available to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company for telephonic consultation. 

4

 

	b.
	For
purposes hereof, any of the following acts or events shall, at Employee's option, constitute a termination without just cause under this paragraph 6 (but the following is
not the entire list of reasons or events which may constitute a "termination without just cause"):

	i.
	any
material diminution or reduction of Employee's title, position, duties or responsibilities, except as caused by the acts or omissions of Employee; or

	ii.
	any
material breach by Company of this Agreement that is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice by Employee of such breach.

	c.
	In
the event that, at the end of the Term, the Company elects not to extend or renew Employee's full-time employment beyond the Term on terms at least favorably to Employee
as Employee is receiving during the last fiscal year of the Term, then such non-renewal shall be treated as a termination without cause. In such case, the provisions of paragraphs
6(a)(i) through (iv) shall apply and Employee shall be bound to the provisions of paragraphs 4 and 5 hereof for the period of time during which Employee is being paid pursuant to
paragraph 6(a). 

        7.     Early Termination by Company for Just Cause.    The Company may terminate Employee for just cause. In the event
the Company terminates the Employee for just cause, the Employee will remain bound under the provisions of paragraphs 4 and 5, but will not be entitled to any compensation or benefits following his
termination of employment under this Agreement. Termination for "just cause" shall mean: 

	a.
	dishonesty
as to a matter which is materially injurious to the Company,

	b.
	the
commission of a willful act or omission intended to materially injure the business of the Company,

	c.
	a
violation of any of the material provisions of Sections 4 and/or 5 hereof, or

	d.
	a
determination in good faith by the Board that the Employee has failed to make a good faith effort to fully perform his duties as assigned by either the CEO or the Board, which is not
remedied by the Employee within thirty (30) days following the CEO's specific written notice stating such alleged failure from the Board. 

        8.     Voluntary Termination by Employee.

	a.
	In
the event Employee voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company, Employee will remain bound under the provisions of paragraphs 4 and 5 hereof, but will not be entitled to
receive any compensation and benefits following his termination of employment except for any payments or benefits required by law.

	b.
	Voluntary
termination means an intentional termination by the Employee without good reason and without pressure by the Company; and further, provided that there was not a material
breach of this Agreement by the Company, prior to any such termination which remains uncured. 

        9.     Cooperation with Change in Control.    Employee will reasonably cooperate with the Company in the event of a
Change in Control. 

        10.   No Conflicting Agreements.    Employee has the right to enter into this Agreement, and hereby confirms Employee
has no contractual or other impediments to the performance of Employee's obligations including, without limitation, any non-competition or similar agreement in favor of any other person or
entity. 

        11.   Company Policies.    During the term of Employee's employment, Employee shall engage in no activity or
employment which may conflict with the interest of the Company, and Employee shall 

5

 

comply
with all policies and procedures of the Company including, without limitation, all policies and procedures pertaining to ethics. 

        12.   Independent Covenants.    The covenants and agreements on the part of the Employee contained in paragraphs 4
and 5 hereof shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision in this Agreement; thus, it is agreed that the relief for any claim or cause of action of the Employee against the
Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall be measured in damages and shall not constitute a defense or bar to enforcement by the Company of those covenants and agreements. 

        13.   Injunctive Relief; Attorneys' Fees.    In recognition of the irreparable harm that a violation by Employee of
any of the covenants contained in either paragraphs 4 or 5 hereof would cause the Company, the Employee agrees that, in addition to any other relief afforded by law, an injunction (both temporary and
permanent) against such violation or violations may be issued against him or her and every other person and entity concerned thereby, it being the understanding of the parties that both damages and an
injunction shall be proper modes of relief and are not to be considered alternative remedies. Employee consents to the issuance of such injunctive relief without the posting of a bond or other
security. In the event of any such alleged violation, the losing party agrees to pay the actual damages sustained by the prevailing party as a result thereof. 

        14.   Notice.    Any notice sent by registered mail to the last known address of the party to whom such notice is to
be given shall satisfy the requirements of notice in this Agreement. 

        15.   Entire Agreement.    This Agreement is the entire agreement of the parties hereto concerning the subject matter
hereof and supersedes and replaces in its entirety any oral or written existing agreements or understandings between the Company and the Employee relating generally to the same subject matter. Company
and Employee hereby acknowledge that there are no agreements or understandings of any nature, oral or written, regarding Employee's employment, apart from this Agreement, and Employee acknowledges
that no promises or agreements not contained in this Agreement have been made or offered by the Company. 

        16.   Severability.    It is agreed and understood by the parties hereto that if any provision of this Agreement
should be determined by an arbitrator or court to be unenforceable in whole or in part, it shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it reasonable and enforceable under the
circumstances, and the court shall be authorized by the parties to reform this Agreement in the least way necessary in order to make it reasonable and enforceable. 

        17.   Governing Law.    This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
Nevada, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof. 

        18.   Heirs, Successors and Assigns.    The terms, conditions, obligations, agreements and covenants hereof shall
extend to, be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors, assigns, and/or acquirers, including any entity which
acquires, merges with, or obtain control of the Company. 

        19.   Waiver of Breach.    The waiver by either the Company or the Employee of any breach of any provision of this
Agreement shall not operate as or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach by either the Company or the Employee. 

        20.   Dispute Resolution.    Except for the Company's right (either pursuant to paragraph 13 hereof or
otherwise) to injunctive relief to enforce the provisions of paragraphs 4 and 5 hereof, the exclusive forum for the resolution of any dispute arising under this Agreement or any question of
interpretation 

6

 

regarding
the provisions of this Agreement (other than disputes relative to paragraphs 4 or 5 hereof) shall be resolved by arbitration. Specifically: 

	a.
	Either
party may send written notice (the "Dispute Notice") to the other party that a dispute exists.

	b.
	Upon
the sending of such written notice, the parties agree to use their best endeavors to negotiate a settlement of the Dispute. In this regard, the parties agree to consult and
negotiate with each other in good faith for a period of thirty (30) days (the "Good Faith Settlement Period"), which time period shall commence on the date either party sends the Dispute Notice
to the other party.

	c.
	If
the parties have not resolved the Dispute within such Good Faith Settlement Period, the Dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act (or
any similar state statute which shall apply) conducted by and under the commercial rules of the American Arbitration Association or any successor thereof.

	d.
	Either
party may institute an arbitration proceeding; provided, however, that neither party may institute such arbitration proceeding until the expiration of the Good Faith Settlement
Period.

	e.
	Any
arbitration proceeding shall be held in Las Vegas, Nevada (or such other place as both parties agree) and shall be held before a panel of three arbitrators (or such lesser number
as the parties may agree).

	f.
	Any
award made by the panel of arbitrators may be confirmed as provided by law in any Court with appropriate jurisdiction. 

        21.   Amendment.    This Agreement may be amended only by a document in writing signed by both the Employee and an
officer of the Company, and no course of dealing or conduct of the Company shall constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 

        22.   Fees and Costs.    In any action bought by one party against the other pursuant to this Agreement or in the
event of any dispute over the meaning of this Agreement, the successful party, in addition to recovering its awarded damages and other relief, shall be entitled to recover its attorney's fees and
costs from the unsuccessful party. 

        23.   D & O Policy.    During Employee's employment with the Company, the Company shall maintain director and
officer liability insurance in reasonable scope and amounts which insurance will cover Employee. 

        24.   Non-Disparagement and Cooperation. 

	a.
	During
any period of time wherein the Company is paying any base salary to Employee, whether during the Term hereof or during any time after the termination or expiration of this
Agreement, and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Employee shall not disparage or otherwise make any negative comments about the Company, its policies, products, Employees or management.
The Company may enforce these non-disparagement provisions by resort to injunctive relief as set forth in paragraph 13, in addition to any other damages that it may be entitled to
under this Agreement or otherwise at law.

	b.
	Employee
agrees to fully cooperate with the Company and its affiliates during the entire scope and duration of any litigation or administrative proceedings involving any matters with
which Employee was involved during Employee's employment with the Company.

	c.
	In
the event Employee is contacted by parties or their legal counsel involved in litigation adverse to the Company or its affiliates, Employee (i) agrees to provide notice of
such contact 

7

 

as
soon as practicable; and (ii) acknowledges that any communication with or in the presence of legal counsel for the Company (including without limitation the Company's outside legal counsel,
the Company's inside legal counsel, and legal counsel of each related or affiliated entity of the Company) shall be privileged to the extent recognized by law and, further, will not do anything to
waive such privilege unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction decides that the communication is not privileged. In the event the existence or scope of the privileged communication is subject
to legal challenge, then the Company must either waive the privilege or pursue litigation to protect the privilege at the Company's sole expense. 

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day, month and year first above written.
