 Att. Mr Lawrence Yau Lung Ho 
 Re: Appointment of Managing Director of Melco PBL Gaming (Macau), Limited 
 Dear Sir, 
 As of this date, Melco PBL Gaming (Macau), Limited (hereinafter referred to as the
“Company”), a company incorporated under the laws of the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Macau SAR”), registered with the Macau Commercial Registry under no. 24325 with registered
office at Avenida Dr. Mário Soares, no. 25, Edifício Montepio, 1o andar, compartimento 13, is the holder of a subconcession to exploit games of chance and other games in casino in the Macau SAR (hereinafter the
“Subconcession”). 
 Pursuant to article 19 of Law 16/2001, the Company must appoint a managing director (hereinafter referred to
as the “MD”) who shall be a Macau SAR permanent resident and shall hold at least 10% of the issued share capital of the Company. In accordance with the law, the MD must be a person with a sound reputation, and the appointment has to be
approved by the Macau SAR Government. 
  

 1 

 In order to meet the legal requirement mentioned above, the Company appointed Ms Manuela Antonio (who is
an experienced lawyer practising in the Macau SAR for the last twenty years and a person of unblemished character) as managing director. In light of the fact that (i) Melco International Development Limited is now an indirect shareholder in the
Company (ii) the Company wishes to appoint you as MD (iii) the Government of the Macau SAR has approved your appointment as managing director and (iv) Ms Manuela Antonio has agreed to step down as managing director to allow you to be
appointed , we have invited you to hold the position of MD of the Company to replace Ms Manuela Antonio, pursuant to your agreement with the terms and conditions set out below. 
 Managing Director Shareholding 
 On 15th December, 2006, Ms Manuela Antonio transferred 1,000,000 Class A shares in the Company to you, which constitutes 10 per cent of the issued share capital in the Company and 10 per
cent of the voting power of the Company. 
 The rights attaching to the “A” Class shares are more fully set out in the
Company’s Articles of Association as set out in Attachment 1. 
 The MD hereby acknowledges that he has no entitlement to the capital of
the Company other than as set out above and as set out in the Company’s Articles of Association and the MD will not make any claims in this regard. Furthermore, if requested by the Company, the MD shall enter into a share pledge or other
security documentation required by persons or entities providing finance to the Company or its related entities in a form as reasonably required by the Company (subject to the approval of the Government of Macau SAR). The MD shall not be held liable
for any obligations and/or undertakings arising from charges or other security on the MD Shares or other obligations and/or undertakings resulting from other documentation which may be required by persons or entities providing finance to the Company
executed by the MD upon request by the Company and shall be held harmless and with right of recourse against the Company for any liability therefore incurred. 
  

 2 

 The MD acknowledges that the shareholders of the Company (including the MD) will enter into the
Company’s Shareholders Agreement (substantially in the form as set out in Attachment 2) to take effect as of the same date. The Company’s Shareholder Agreement must be submitted to the Macau SAR Government for approval. In case of any
inconsistency between the Company’s Shareholders Agreement hereto attached as Attachment 2 and the Shareholders Agreement approved by the Macau SAR Government, the latter shall prevail. 
 The share certificates received for the MD Shares shall be kept by Melco PBL Investments Limited (“MPBL”) together with the irrevocable power
of attorney, substantially in the form attached hereto as Attachment 3 (the “PoA”) to be signed by the MD, whereby the MD shall grant powers to the Company and/or MPBL to endorse and transfer the MD Shares to MPBL (or its designee) under
the terms and conditions herein below mentioned, upon approval from the Macau SAR Government. The Company shall seek the Macau SAR Government’s approval of the PoA separately. 
 It is as well acknowledged by the MD that the MD holds the MD Shares subject to this letter agreement, the Company’s Articles of Association, the
Company’s Shareholders Agreement and Macau SAR law, and that the MD is prohibited from transferring the MD Shares to a third party without prior written consent from MPBL and approval from the Macau SAR Government. The MD warrants to MPBL and
the Company that during the period that the MD holds the MD Shares no other person will have any interest in, or claim on, the MD shares whatsoever. 
 Managing Director Role and Term 
 The role of the MD as managing director of the Company shall
be that as set forth in the Macau SAR law, the Company’s Articles of Association and Company Shareholders Agreement and the Resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company (as set out in Attachment 4) until the termination of the
delegation of powers in accordance with this letter, the Company’s Articles of 

  

 3 

 
Association and the Macau SAR law. The Company shall seek the Macau SAR Government’s approval of the Resolutions of the Board of Directors separately.
In case of any inconsistency between the Resolutions of the Board of Directors hereto attached as Attachment 4 and the Resolutions of the Board of Directors approved by the Macau SAR Government, the latter shall prevail. 
 The MD agrees that he, as well as the other Company Directors, will act on the instructions of the Board of Directors of the Company and will do all
things reasonably requested by the Board of Directors. 
 The powers to be delegated to the MD by the Board of Directors are: 
  

	 	(i)	to assist in implementing the Company’s management and policies; 

  

	 	(ii)	to represent the Company in accordance with guidelines from the Board of Directors; 

  

	 	(iii)	to represent the Company in relation to third parties, the Government of the Macau SAR (and its authorities, agencies and bodies) in accordance with the guidelines established by

	 	(iv)	to sign, submit and deliver such documents as the Board of Directors shall reasonably request; 

  

	 	(v)	to coordinate the preparation of the Board of Directors meetings; and 

  

	 	(vi)	to execute specific acts and tasks as the Board of Directors may reasonably request. 

 The delegation of powers referred to above shall not prejudice the entitlement of the Board to pass any resolutions with respect to the same matter. 
 If the MD is directed to perform an act (or not to perform an act) in the MD’s capacity as managing director by the Chairman or the Board of
Directors, the Company acknowledges and agrees that MD will not be deemed as being personally liable to the Company or to any other person for that act or omission and shall be held harmless and with right of recourse against the Company for any
liability therefore incurred. 
  

 4 

 The MD shall be under no obligation to do anything in the MD’s position as managing director of the
Company that is or would be contrary to the laws and regulations of the Macau SAR. 
 Notwithstanding the term stipulated in the Resolutions
of the Board of Directors of the Company hereto attached as Attachment 4, PBL, the Company and the MD agree that the delegation of powers to the MD as managing director of the Company shall be ongoing unless determined otherwise by the board of
directors of the Company. 
 Replacement 
 Upon the conclusion of the term of the delegation of powers to the MD herein agreed, the Company shall, subject always to the approval of the Macau SAR Government (i) renew the said delegation; or
(ii) delegate the managing directors’ powers to a person to be appointed by the Company in accordance with the Macau SAR law. 
 The MD shall serve as managing director until the Macau SAR Government has approved the delegation of powers to a new managing director. 
 Termination 
 During the term of the delegation of powers the MD as managing director as referred to above,
termination by the Company of the MD’s appointment shall only be possible if: 
  

	 	(i)	it is done with the consent of the MD and provided that the Macau SAR Government has given its approval to the termination; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the Macau SAR Government gives notice to the Company that the MD must resign as managing director of the Company and the Company then gives notice of termination to the MD and the
effective date of such termination. 

  

 5 

 Upon termination of the MD’s delegation of powers (as referred to above), in consideration for the
payment of one (1) Pataca (MOP$1.00) by MPBL to the MD (receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by the MD), the MD grants to MPBL the right to require the MD to transfer the MD Shares for an aggregate consideration of MOP$1.00. Pursuant to the
authorization of the Macau SAR Government, MPBL will nominate a person to be the transferee of the MD Shares. 
 MPBL or the Company are only
authorized to make use of the PoA to transfer the MD Shares, if 8 (eight) days after the request for transfer of the MD Shares to MPBL (or its designee approved by the Macau SAR Government), the MD has not executed such transfer. 
 Miscellaneous 
 No
modification, amendment, or waiver of any provision herein shall be effective unless it is agreed in writing by all parties hereto. 
 All
costs and expenses incurred by the MD in connection with the appointment as managing director of the Company, including but not limited to the MD’s acceptance of this letter, the consummation of the transfer of the MD Shares and the performance
of any of the MD’s duties as shareholder and managing director shall be paid by the Company and/or MPBL. 
 Each of the parties hereto
