10. Covenants of Executive Not to Compete

Executive acknowledges that with respect to the Business, as defined above, and in the states of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine (the “Restricted Area”) (i) the Employer is one of a limited number of entities engaged in the Business; (ii) his services to the Employer are special and unique; (iii) his work for the Employer has given him and will continue to give him access to confidential information concerning the Employer; and (iv) he has the means to support himself and his dependents other than by engaging in the Business of the Employer and the provisions of this Paragraph 10 will not impair such ability. Accordingly, in order to induce the Employer to enter into this Agreement, Executive covenants and agrees that:

(A)    So long as Executive is employed by Employer and for a period of twelve (12) months following the voluntary or involuntary termination of his employment (the “Restricted Period”), Executive shall not, in the Restricted Area, entertain or accept any offer of employment and shall not compete in any manner, either directly or indirectly, including, without limitation, as an employee or independent contractor, investor, partner, shareholder, officer, director, principal, agent or trustee of any entity engaged in casino gaming, in the Restricted Area, without the express written approval of the Employer; provided, however, that ownership of less than five percent (5%) of the shares of a publicly traded corporation engaged in casino gaming shall not be deemed to violate this Paragraph.

(B)    During the Restricted Period Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any employee of the Employer or encourage any such employee to leave such employment.

In all other respects the Agreement shall be and remain in full force and effect.

The parties hereunto set their hands as of the date above written to evidence their consent to the aforesaid modifications of the Agreement.
