(e)

 

On May 13, 2009, Bally Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), amended the terms of certain outstanding options previously granted to certain members of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), including Mr. Richard Haddrill, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, to extend the expiration date thereof, subject to certain conditions, as approved by the Board.  Specifically, the Company amended awards originally granted to each of Messrs. Haddrill, David Robbins, Jacques Andre and Kevin Verner (each, an “Optionee”) on January 8, 2004 of options to purchase 195,000 shares of Company common stock at an exercise price of $24.65 per share (each, a “Grant”).  Each Grant was originally scheduled to expire on July 8, 2011.

 

Pursuant to the amendments, any unexercised portion of a Grant will now expire on July 8, 2013, except that a Grant may expire prior to July 8, 2013 as follows:  (i) a Grant will expire on July 8, 2011 if the applicable Optionee ceases to serve as a member of the Board on or before July 8, 2011 for any reason other than the Optionee’s death or disability or the failure of the Company to nominate the Optionee for re-election to the Board, and (ii) a Grant will expire 60 days after the date the applicable Optionee ceases to serve as a member of the Board if the Optionee ceases to serve as a member of the Board after July 8, 2011 but on or before July 8, 2013 for any reason other than the Optionee’s death or disability or the failure of the Company to nominate the Optionee for re-election to the Board.  If an Optionee ceases to serve as a member of the Board because of the Optionee’s death or disability, the unexercised portion of such Optionee’s Grant shall expire in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated 2001 Long Term Incentive Plan applicable in the case of death or disability.
