    5. TERMINATION
AND COMPENSATION UPON TERMINATION.

    

    (a) Termination without Cause by
Employer. Employer may terminate Employee’s employment at any time
without Cause (as defined in Section 5(c) below) by giving prior, written notice
to Employee. In such case, Employer shall pay the Annual Salary to Employee for
a twelve month period following termination of employment plus pro rata
performance bonus, accrued vacation and fringe benefits. Employer shall pay
Employee, on the same pay dates on which and in the same manner by which it pays
its current employees. All stock options granted but not vested at such time
shall immediately become fully vested in Employee. For purposes of calculating
the performance bonus, if same is due to Employee in the event of such
termination, Employer shall apply the same percentage of performance bonus paid
in the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year during which the termination
becomes effective, prorated for the portion of the fiscal year that transpired
prior to the termination.

    

    (b) Change of Control.
Employee may terminate Employee’s employment in the event of a “Change of
Control” defined as the sale of substantially all of the Employer’s assets,
acquisition by a third party of more than 50% of Employer’s stock, merger, or
other business combination with an unaffiliated entity or person. In the event
of such a termination, Employer shall pay to Employee in a lump sum an amount
equal to twelve months Annual Salary plus pro rata performance bonus, accrued
vacation, and fringe benefits. In addition, all stock options granted but not
yet vested shall immediately become fully vested in Employee. Employee must give
notice of any termination under this subsection within thirty (30) days of the
occurrence of the event he believes gives rise to a Change of Control. For
purposes of calculating the performance bonus, if same is due to Employee in the
event of such termination, Employer shall apply the same percentage of
performance bonus paid in the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year during which
the termination becomes effective, prorated for the portion of the fiscal year
that transpired prior to the termination.

    

    (c) Termination for
Cause. Employer may terminate Employee’s employment for “Cause” at any
time. Such a termination shall be effective as specified by Employer. In the
event of a termination by Employer for “Cause,” Employee shall be entitled only
to his salary, accrued vacation, and fringe benefits through the effective date
of termination. Any unvested stock options shall be forfeited. All stock options
granted which have vested will be treated as prescribed under Employer’s Stock
Option Plan and the Stock Option Agreement. “Cause” means: (i) the Employee’s
conviction of, or entry of a plea agreement or consent degree or similar
arrangement with respect to, a felony, other serious criminal offense or offense
involving moral turpitude, or any violation of federal or state securities law;
(ii) Employee’s material violation of Employer’s written policies; (iii)
Employee’s material breach of this Agreement, (iv) the final revocation,
suspension, or impairment (after all applicable appeals) of Employee’s gaming
license in any jurisdiction in which Employer is required to have a gaming
license, or a finding (after all applicable appeals) by any authority in any
such jurisdiction that Employee is unsuitable to hold a gaming license; or (v)
Employee’s gross misconduct in the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder.
Any termination of the Employee’s employment by Employer pursuant to this
Section 5 (c) shall be communicated by a notice of termination which shall set
forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a
basis for termination of the Employee’s employment under the provision invoked.
To exercise its right to terminate the Employee pursuant to provisions (ii),
(iii) or (v) of the definition of Cause, Employer must first provide the
Employee with 30 days’ time to correct the circumstances or events that Employer
contends give rise to the existence of Cause under those provisions. The 30-day
time period shall not begin to run until the Board of Directors of Employer has
given the Employee the opportunity to meet with the Board (at which meeting at
least a quorum of the Board is present either personally or telephonically) to
hear a specific explanation from the Board of the circumstances or events the
Board believes may fall within provisions (ii), (iii) or (v) of the definitions
of Cause.

    

    (d) Termination due to Inability
to Perform Essential Functions. Employer may terminate Employee’s
employment if Employee becomes unable to perform the essential functions of his
position due to disability for a period greater than six months despite any
reasonable accommodation required by law. In the event of a termination under
this subsection, Employee shall be entitled only to his salary, accrued
vacation, and fringe benefits for a period of one (1) year following the
effective date of termination and thereafter to any benefits to which Employee
is entitled under the Company’s disability policy. In the case of granted but
unvested stock options, those unvested stock options which would become vested
within such one (1) year period shall become vested and the remaining granted
but unvested stock options shall be forfeited. Otherwise, the stock options will
be treated as prescribed under Employer’s Stock Option Plan and the Stock Option
Agreement.

    

    6. CONFIDENTIALITY, PROPERTY,
COMPETITION, SOLICITATION.

    

    (a) Ownership.
Employee agrees that all inventions, copyrightable material, business and/or
technical information, marketing plans, customer lists and trade secrets which
arise out of the performance of this Agreement are the property of
Employer.

scope of his employment with Employer, Employee agrees to keep confidential
indefinitely, and not to use or disclose to any unauthorized person, information
which is not generally known and which is proprietary to Employer, including all
information that Employer treats as confidential, (“Confidential Information”).
Upon termination of Employee’s Employment, Employee will promptly turn over to
Employer all software, records, manuals, books, forms, documents, notes,
letters, memoranda, reports, data, tables, compositions, articles, devise,
apparatus, marketing plans, customer lists and other items that disclose,
describe or embody Confidential Information including all copies of the
Confidential Information in his possession, regardless of who prepared
them.

    

    (c) Non-competition.
If Employee’s employment hereunder is terminated as a result of the application
of paragraph 5(c), then for a period of one (1) year after the effective date of
termination. Employee agrees not to compete, directly or indirectly (including
as an officer, director, partner, employee, consultant, independent contractor,
or more than 5% equity holder of any equity) with Employer in any way concerning
the ownership, development or management of any gaming operations or facility
within a 75-mile radius of any gaming operations or facility with respect to
which Employer (or any of its affiliates) owns or renders substantial, paid,
consulting or management services at the time of termination. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this provision will not apply to the metropolitan area of Las
Vegas, Nevada.

    

    (d) Non-solicitation.
Employee agrees not to solicit or recruit, directly or indirectly, any
management employee of Employer for employment during the one (1) year period
after termination of his employment relationship with Employer.
