AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE

In consideration of the promises contained herein, Scientific Games Corporation, 6650 S. El Camino Road, Las Vegas, NV 89118 (the “Company”) and Karin-Joyce Tjon Sien Fat, 6365 Collins Avenue, Apt. 807, Miami Beach, FL 33141 (“you”), agree that:

WHEREAS, you have been employed by the Company since February 13, 2017 pursuant to an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, you and the Company wish to resolve all matters related to your employment with the Company, on the terms and conditions expressed in this Agreement and General Release (“Agreement”).

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.Last Day of Employment. Your last day of employment with the Company is August 2, 2017 (the “Separation Date”). The Employment Agreement will terminate on that date, except that any provisions in the Employment Agreement designed to survive termination will survive.
2.    Severance Benefits In Return for Signing.

1.
Separation Benefits. In return for your signing this Agreement, complying with the promises made by you in this Agreement and the Employment Agreement and remaining employed through the Separation Date, the Company will provide you with the following separation benefits (the “Separation Benefits”) described below in subsections (i)-(v). You acknowledge and agree that the Separation Benefits are separate from and in addition to what you are already entitled to receive from the Company. Furthermore, if you are rehired by the Company or hired by any affiliate of the Company, all Separation Benefits will terminate as of the commencement date of such employment. The Separation Benefits are:

1.
The Company will pay you an amount equal to $1,031,250.00 as severance pay (the “Severance Payments”) in bi-weekly installments and on the Company’s regular pay days and in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices over a twelve month period. Such payments shall commence within the first full payroll period after the Effective Date (as defined in Section 13(b) of this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if your severance pay is subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”), and the commencement of your severance pay could straddle two tax years depending upon the timing of the Effective Date, then your severance pay will commence in all instances in the second tax year.

2.
No later than March 15, 2018, the Company will pay you a bonus under the 2017 SGICP Cash Bonus Plan in the amount of $281,250.00.

3.
If you choose to elect continuation coverage by properly and timely electing COBRA coverage under and pursuant to COBRA, 29 U.S.C. § 1161 et seq., the Company will pay the employer and employee shares of the COBRA premiums (based on your current coverage elections) for twelve (12) months commencing on the first full month following the Separation Date. After twelve (12) months, you will be responsible for paying the entire COBRA premium. You will receive information on your opportunity to elect COBRA coverage under separate cover. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the payment by the Company of such COBRA premium payments will subject or expose the Company to taxes or penalties, you and the Company shall enter into a substitute arrangement pursuant to which the Company will not be subjected or exposed to taxes or penalties and you will be provided with payments or benefits with an equivalent economic value, after tax.

4.
The Company will pay you $35,000 within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date.

5.
The Company will pay reasonable fees associated with you breaking your Las Vegas condominium lease.

(b)
Additional Obligations. Additionally, the Company acknowledges the following obligations to you:

The Company shall pay you your regular base salary, accrued and unpaid up to and including the Separation Date pursuant to applicable law, less required and/or authorized deductions and withholdings, and payable in accordance with Company’s regular payroll practices;

(ii)
The Company shall pay you any accrued and unused paid time off as of the Separation Date pursuant to applicable law and payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practice;

(iii)
The Company agrees to reimburse you for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket business related expenses you incurred at the request of the Company prior to the Separation Date, provided that you shall submit reasonable documentation of such expenses prior to the Effective Date and in accordance with the applicable Company policy; and

(iv)
Following the Separation Date, you shall be entitled to any amount arising from your participation in, or benefits under, any employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements that become payable as a result of your separation from the Company, which amounts shall be payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of such employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements and pursuant to applicable law.

(c)
No Other Benefits. Except as provided in this Agreement, you shall not be entitled to receive any other payment, benefit or other form of compensation as a result of your employment or the termination thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, all equity grants by the Company, including all restricted stock units and stock options granted to you, are forfeited on the Separation Date.

(d)
Tax Withholding. All payments made by the Company to you hereunder except for COBRA payments and expense reimbursements shall be subject to all applicable withholding deductions.

(a)
BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT YOU ARE KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVING ANY RIGHTS (KNOWN OR UNKNOWN) TO BRING OR PROSECUTE A LAWSUIT OR MAKE ANY LEGAL CLAIM AGAINST THE RELEASED PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OF THE CLAIMS DESCRIBED ABOVE IN SECTION 4. You agree that the release set forth above will bar all claims or demands of every kind, known or unknown, referred to above in Section 4 and further agree that no non-governmental person, organization or other entity acting on your behalf has in the past or will in the future file any lawsuit, arbitration or proceeding asserting any claim that is waived or released under this Agreement. If you break this promise and file a lawsuit, arbitration or other proceeding asserting any Claim waived in this Agreement, (i) you will pay for all costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Released Parties in defending against such Claim (unless such Claim is a charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the National Labor Relations Board); (ii) you give up any right to individual damages in connection with any administrative, arbitration or court proceeding with respect to your employment with and/or termination from employment with the Company, including damages, reinstatement or attorneys' fees; and (iii) if you are awarded money damages, you will assign to the Released Parties your right and interest to all such money damages. If any claim is not subject to release, to the extent permitted by law, you waive any right or ability to be a class or collective action representative or to otherwise participate in any putative or certified class, collective or multi-party action or proceeding based on such a claim in which Company or any other Released Party is a party. Furthermore, if you are made a member of a class or collective action in any proceeding without your prior knowledge or consent, you agree to opt out of the class or collective action at the first opportunity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5 does not limit your right to challenge the validity of this Agreement in a legal proceeding under the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, 29 U.S.C. § 626(f), with respect to claims under the ADEA. This Section also is not intended to and shall not limit the right of a court to determine, in its discretion, that the Company is entitled to restitution, recoupment or setoff of any payments made to you by the Company should this Agreement be found to be invalid as to the release of claims under the ADEA.

(b)
You agree that you shall not solicit, encourage, assist or participate (directly or indirectly) in bringing any Claims or actions against any of the Released Parties by other current or former employees, officers or third parties, except as compelled by subpoena or other court order or legal process, and only after providing the Company with prior notice of any such subpoena, order or legal process and an opportunity to timely contest such process. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude you from making truthful statements that are required by applicable law, regulation or legal process.

(c)
You represent and warrant that you have not filed any administrative, judicial or other form of complaint or initiated any claim, charge, complaint or formal legal proceeding, nor are you a party to any such claim, against any of the Released Parties, and that you will not make such a filing at any time hereafter based on any events or omissions occurring prior to the date of execution of this Agreement. You understand and agree that this Agreement will be pleaded as a full and complete defense to any action, suit or proceeding which is or may be instituted, prosecuted or maintained by you, your agents, assignees, attorneys, heirs, executors, administrators and anyone else claiming by or through you.

The parties acknowledge and agree that such cooperation may include, but shall not be limited to, you making yourself available for meetings, interviews, depositions, statements, testimony or the signing of affidavits, and providing to the Company any documents or information in your possession or under your control relating to any such litigation, regulatory matter or investigation, provided that any such meetings, interviews, depositions, statements or testimony do not unduly interfere with your work schedule or other post-Company duties. The Company shall reimburse you promptly after you submit receipts or other documents reasonably acceptable to the Company for your actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred and approved by the Company in connection with your performance under this subpart (d); provided, however, that you shall not be entitled to any expense reimbursement for time spent testifying or otherwise cooperating in any matter in which you are a defendant in the proceeding or a named subject or target of the litigation, regulatory matter or investigation. You represent and warrant that you have and will accurately, completely and truthfully disclose to the Company any and all materials and information requested, including, without limitation, in connection with any pending or future internal investigation or judicial, administrative or regulatory matter, proceeding or investigation involving conduct in which you were involved or had knowledge in connection with your employment with the Company.
