The payment of any Performance Bonus or Prorated Performance Bonus after such termination shall be made in cash, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5(b)(i) hereof.

               (ii) In the event of a termination described in Section 5(c)(i) above, Executive, together with Executive’s dependents and beneficiaries, will become fully vested in and continue following Executive’s termination to participate fully in, at no additional cost to Executive, all life insurance plans, accident and health plans and other welfare plans, maintained or sponsored by GTECH immediately prior to the termination, at the same level and subject to terms at least as favorable to Executive as in effect immediately prior to termination (or the full value thereof in cash) from GTECH, until the third anniversary of termination. Executive will also become fully vested in all non-qualified retirement plans, and within thirty (30) days of Executive’s termination of employment, GTECH shall pay to Executive the sum of (i) all benefits accrued under the any non-qualified plans and (ii) an amount equal to 2.99 times the average benefit accrued and/or Company or GTECH contributions made to the retirement plans

and the non-qualified plans over the last three fiscal years prior to termination. Additionally, to the extent Executive is not fully vested in all Company or GTECH qualified retirement plans, Executive shall receive a payment equal to any unvested portion of such retirement plans. In addition, in the event of a Change in Control (other than the Merger) prior to the Executive’s termination of employment, any Shares not yet issued and transferred to Executive pursuant to Sections 6(c) or 6(d) hereof shall be promptly issued and transferred to Executive whether or not he has satisfied the performance and employment requirements set forth therein and any and all Cash-Based Awards (as defined in Section 6(e) hereof) and stock options granted to Executive that have not yet become vested and exercisable shall become vested and exercisable.

          (iii) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding and except as set forth below, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or distribution by the Company or GTECH to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise-Tax”), whether in connection with the Merger or any Change in Control, then Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed on the Payments. GTECH shall pay to Executive any Gross-Up Payments required as a result of Excise Taxes payable by Executive arising from the Merger.

          (iv) All determinations required to be made under this Section 5(c), including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by such other nationally recognized certified public accounting firm as may be designated by Executive (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to GTECH and Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by GTECH. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by GTECH. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 5(c), shall be paid by GTECH to Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm’s determination. Subject to the remainder of this Section 5(c), any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon GTECH and Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 280G and Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by GTECH should have been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that GTECH exhausts its remedies and Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm

shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by GTECH to or for the benefit of Executive (so as to fully extinguish Executive’s tax liability for the Payments including all interest and penalties).

          (v) Executive shall notify GTECH in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by GTECH of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise GTECH of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which Executive gives such notice to GTECH (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If GTECH notifies Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, Executive shall:

     (A) give GTECH any information reasonably requested by GTECH relating to such claim,

     (B) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as GTECH shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by GTECH,

     (C) cooperate with GTECH in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim, and

     (D) permit GTECH to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim;

provided, however, that GTECH shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(c), GTECH shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as GTECH shall determine; provided, however, that if GTECH directs Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, GTECH shall advance the amount of such payment to Executive, on an interest-free basis and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and further provided that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, GTECH’s control of

the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.

               (vi) If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by GTECH pursuant to Section 5(c), Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, Executive shall (subject to GTECH’s complying with the requirements of Section 5(c)) promptly pay to GTECH the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by GTECH pursuant to Section 5(c), a determination is made that Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and GTECH does not notify Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of 30 days after such determination then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

          (d) Reimbursement of Expenses. Consistent with GTECH’s established policies, GTECH shall pay or reimburse Executive for all reasonable and necessary travel and other expenses of Executive incurred by Executive in performing his duties hereunder upon receipt of appropriate written substantiation of such expenses.

          (e) Housing. If deemed necessary by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company for the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder, the Company shall make available to Executive at no cost to Executive rental or other short-term housing near the Company’s Rome headquarters.

      6. Benefits .

          (a) Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Executive shall be entitled to receive, during the Term, benefits substantially similar to the level of benefits provided generally to Senior Executives under any benefit plan, program or arrangement of GTECH in effect, subject to Executive’s meeting the eligibility requirements of such plans, programs or arrangements, and in the case of benefit plans, programs or arrangements providing for discretionary grants or awards, to the discretion of the Board or applicable committee.

          (b) Stock Options. Executive shall receive the following stock options in accordance with the following terms and conditions:

               (i) Executive shall be eligible for consideration by the Committee for annual grants of stock options under the Company’s stock option or equity compensation plans existing on the date of this Agreement or established hereafter (each being referred to as a “Long Term Incentive Plan”), in the sole discretion of the Committee.

               (ii) All grants of stock options under this Agreement are subject to and conditioned upon the Company obtaining all necessary shareholder approvals, if any, which the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain.

          (c) Grant of Shares. Not less than 35% of the calculated value of annual long term incentive awards under a Long Term Incentive Plan shall be provided to Executive in the form of an award of fully-vested Shares. The foregoing awards of fully-vested Shares will be subject to all the terms of the applicable Long Term Incentive Plan. It is intended that the foregoing awards of Shares will be valued on the dates of grant of such awards, but will provide that such Shares will only be issued and transferred to the Executive upon the future achievement of certain target performance goals to be determined by the Company consistent with its equity compensation policies for Senior Executives, and provided that the Executive is continuously employed by GTECH. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may grant the foregoing Shares on such other basis as is consistent with its Share grants to other Senior Executives of the Company.

          (d) Initial Award of Stock Options and Shares. As a result of the Merger, all GTECH long term incentives will have vested. Accordingly, GTECH will not have granted 2006 long-term incentive awards. In recognition thereof, and in replacement of such 2006 long-term incentive awards, the Company shall award to Executive total long term compensation of US $1,125,000 as consideration for the normal annual GTECH grant. The value of such award on the date of grant will be split 65% stock options and 35% Shares (the “Performance Shares”) using traditional Black Scholes option pricing. Such award shall be made within sixty (60) days of the Effective Date under the terms of a Long Term Incentive Plan, provided that for purposes of meeting any applicable vesting requirements, the award shall be treated as made on the Effective Date. The foregoing award of stock options will vest consistent with similar option grants of the Company to Senior Executives. It is intended that the foregoing award of Performance Shares will be valued on the date of grant but will provide that such Performance Shares will, except as otherwise provided in Section 9(d), only be issued and transferred to the Executive upon the future achievement of certain target performance goals to be determined by the Company consistent with its equity compensation policies for Senior Executives, and provided that the Executive is continuously employed by GTECH for the specified performance period. Additionally, the Company will grant the Executive (i) a retention equity award of 16,000 fully-vested Shares (the “Non-Performance Shares”) in two (2) annual installments to be issued and transferred in equal amounts to the Executive on the first and second anniversaries of the Effective Date, and (ii) a retention equity award of 8,000 fully-vested Shares for each additional year of employment, for a maximum of three (3) extension years, pursuant to Section 3 hereof, provided that the Executive will not, except as otherwise provided in Section 9(d), be entitled to the issuance and transfer of such Shares on any such date unless the Executive is continuously employed by GTECH up to and including each such date. Such award of Non-Performance Shares shall be made within sixty (60) days of the Effective Date, provided that for purposes of meeting any applicable vesting requirements, the award shall be treated as made on the Effective Date.

          (e) Cash-Based Awards. The Company reserves the right to substitute, in its discretion, awards payable in cash for the stock option and Share awards described in Sections 6(b), (c) and (d) above. Such cash awards (i) shall be in the form of stock appreciation rights (in the case of stock option grants) or restricted share units (in the case of Share awards) of equal value as the stock options or Share awards they are being substituted for, (ii) shall have vesting schedules no less advantageous to Executive as the stock options or Share awards they are being

substituted for, and (iii) shall provide for payment of such restricted share unit awards to Executive immediately upon vesting. Any award granted pursuant to this Section 6(e) shall hereinafter be referred to as a Cash-Based Award.

          (f) Dividend Equivalent Awards. With respect to the award of Shares pursuant to Section 6(c) and (d) above, the Executive will be entitled to an award of additional Shares equal to the value of any dividends or other distributions declared by the Company with respect to such Shares between the effective date of the grants applicable to such Shares and the transfer of such Shares to the Executive in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5(c), 6(c), 6(d), 9(c) and 9(d) hereof. All Shares issued pursuant to this Section 6(f) shall be (i) valued at the price per ordinary share as of the close of business on the effective date of such dividend or distribution and (ii) will only be issued and transferred to the Executive when and if the Shares for which the dividend or distribution was made are issued and transferred to Executive pursuant to Sections 5(c), 6(c), 6(d), 9(c) or 9(d) hereof.

          (g) Certain Specific Benefits and Arrangements. Without limiting the generality of subsection (a) above (except as may otherwise be specified in Appendix A hereto), Executive shall be entitled to the specific benefits and arrangements set forth in Appendix A hereto.

          (h) Indemnification. GTECH shall defend and hold Executive, to the extent Executive is a defendant, target or witness, harmless to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the organizational documents of GTECH in connection with any claim, action, suit, investigation or proceeding arising out of or relating to performance by Executive of services for, or action of Executive as a director, officer or employee of GTECH or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of GTECH, or of any other person or enterprise at GTECH’s request. To the extent permitted by law and by the organizational documents of GTECH, expenses incurred by Executive in defending a claim, action, suit or investigation or criminal proceeding shall be paid by GTECH in advance of the final disposition thereof upon the receipt by GTECH of an undertaking by or on behalf of Executive to repay said amount unless it shall ultimately be determined that Executive is entitled to be indemnified hereunder. This Section 6(h) shall not apply to a non-derivative action commenced by GTECH against Executive.

      7. Benefits Payable During Term Upon Disability .

          (a) Disability Benefits. In the event of Disability of Executive during the Term of his employment hereunder, GTECH shall continue to pay Executive the compensation and extend to him the benefits provided in Sections 5 and 6 hereof during the period of Disability, subject to Section 9(e) hereof and to the extent permitted by applicable law, provided that in the event of Executive’s Disability for an aggregate period of time exceeding 150 calendar days in any 12 consecutive month period during the Term, GTECH, at its election, may terminate the Term of Executive’s employment, and Executive shall receive the compensation as set forth in Sections 9(b) and 9(d) hereof.

          (b) Services During Disability. During the Term, notwithstanding any Disability, Executive shall, to the extent that he is physically and mentally able to do so, furnish information and assistance to GTECH, and, in addition, upon the reasonable request in writing of

the Chief Executive Officer of GTECH, or a senior executive officer designated by the Chief Executive Officer of GTECH, from time to time, he shall make himself available to GTECH and its subsidiaries and affiliates to undertake reasonable assignments consistent with his position and his physical and mental health.

      8. Termination of Employment .

          (a) Expiration and Earlier Termination. Executive’s Term of employment shall terminate upon expiration of the Term (which shall include any extensions under Section 3) and shall be subject to earlier termination:

In the event of such a proposed termination for Cause, such notice shall specify the grounds for such termination, and GTECH shall only be entitled to terminate Executive for such Cause if Executive shall have failed to cure the grounds for such termination within said 60-day notice period and Executive shall have been afforded an opportunity to address the Board , with legal counsel, to argue against such termination. However, after giving such notice and before Executive is afforded the opportunity to address the Board, GTECH may relieve Executive of his duties on an interim basis. GTECH may immediately terminate Executive’s employment by written notice in the event of the occurrence of any of the events set forth in clauses (ii) and (iv) of t
