In connection with the consummation of the Merger, on October 23, 2023, the following agreements were terminated and all liabilities and obligations thereunder were deemed to be fully satisfied, extinguished and released pursuant to the Omnibus Termination Agreement, dated as of such date (the “Omnibus Termination Agreement”), by and among Light & Wonder, SciPlay and the affiliates of each of Light & Wonder and SciPlay identified as parties to such agreements: (i) Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 7, 2019, by and among SciPlay, SG Social Holding Company I, LLC (as predecessor to LNW Social Holding Company I, LLC) and such other persons from time to time party thereto, (ii) Services Agreement, dated as of May 7, 2019, by and among Scientific Games Corporation (as predecessor to Light & Wonder), Scientific Games International, Inc.

A copy of the Omnibus Termination Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02.

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

At the Effective Time, pursuant to the terms of, and subject to the conditions set forth in, the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada: (i) each share of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of SciPlay (the “SciPlay Class A Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Excluded Shares (as defined below)) was converted automatically into the right to receive $22.95 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”); (ii) each share of SciPlay Class A Common Stock and Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of SciPlay (the “SciPlay Class B Common Stock” and, together with the SciPlay Class A Common Stock, the “SciPlay Common Stock”) held by SciPlay as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time was automatically canceled and retired and ceased to exist, and no consideration or payment has been or shall be delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof; (iii) each share of SciPlay Class A Common Stock held by Light & Wonder, Merger Sub or any other direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Light & Wonder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time not held on behalf of third parties was automatically canceled and ceased to exist, no former holder thereof is entitled to receive any Merger Consideration therefor, and no other consideration or payment has been or shall be delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof; and (iv) each holder of a Common Unit (as defined in the Merger Agreement) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time became entitled, upon the election of such holder exercisable not later than 10 business days after the Effective Time, to exchange each such Common Unit for the Merger Consideration that is payable with respect to one share of SciPlay Class A Common Stock. In addition, pursuant to the terms of, and subject to the conditions set forth in, the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, each share of SciPlay Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time remained in existence following the Effective Time as a share of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

“Excluded Shares” means, collectively, (a) each share of SciPlay Common Stock held by SciPlay as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, (b) each share of SciPlay Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and (c) each share of SciPlay Class A Common Stock held by Light & Wonder, Merger Sub or any other direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Light & Wonder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Treatment of SciPlay Equity Awards

Each outstanding performance restricted stock unit of SciPlay (each, a “SciPlay PRSU”) that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was automatically converted into a performance restricted stock unit denominated in shares of common stock of Light & Wonder (“Light & Wonder Common Stock”) generally on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such SciPlay PRSU, and with respect to a target number of shares of Light & Wonder Common Stock determined by multiplying (i) the target number of shares of SciPlay Class A Common Stock subject to such SciPlay PRSU by (ii) a fraction, (a) the numerator of which was the Merger Consideration and (b) the denominator of which was the average of the volume weighted averages of the trading prices of Light & Wonder Common Stock on each of the 10 consecutive trading days ending on (and including) the trading day that was two trading days prior to the date of the Merger Agreement (the “Equity Award Exchange Ratio”), and rounding the resulting number up to the nearest whole number of shares of Light & Wonder Common Stock.

Each restricted stock unit of SciPlay (each, a “SciPlay RSU”) that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was automatically, (i) if granted to a non-employee member of the Board, cancelled, thereby entitling the holder of such SciPlay RSU to an amount in cash equal to (a) the number of shares of SciPlay Class A Common Stock subject to such SciPlay RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (b) the Merger Consideration, and (ii) if not granted to an individual described in clause (i), converted into a restricted stock unit denominated in shares of Light & Wonder Common Stock on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such SciPlay RSU, and with respect to a number of shares of Light & Wonder Common Stock determined by multiplying (1) the number of shares of SciPlay Class A Common Stock subject to such SciPlay RSU by (2) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio, and rounding the resulting number up to the nearest whole number of shares of Light & Wonder Common Stock.

The information in the Introductory Note above of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 2.01. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement.

1.              Termination. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees, with respect to those Affiliate Agreements to which such Person is a party, that, with effect as of and contingent upon the Effective Time, each such Affiliate Agreement and any other agreement, document or instrument executed and delivered in connection with any such Affiliate Agreements shall be automatically terminated and cancelled in full without further action by any Person, without survival of any provision thereunder, and shall no longer have any force or effect between, and discharged without any obligation, responsibility, right, cost, expense, penalty or liability to, Parent and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary that may be contained therein. Each of the parties hereto agrees that prior to the Effective Time, it will pay all amounts due and payable prior to the Effective Time under the Affiliate Agreements; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein or in the License Agreement (as defined in Schedule I hereto) to the contrary, each of the parties hereto party to the License Agreement agrees that no break fee under Section 5.4(b) of the License Agreement shall be payable as a result of the termination of the License Agreement pursuant to this Agreement.

2.              Waiver of Notice. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives any notice or similar requirement set forth in any Affiliate Agreement to which it is a party in connection with the termination of such Affiliate Agreement pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement.

3.              Representations and Warranties. The termination under Section 1 is made without recourse, representation or warranty, express or implied.

Following the Effective Time, upon reasonable request, each of the parties hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.              Merger Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed to supersede, modify, replace, amend, rescind, waive, expand or limit in any way the rights of the parties under, and the terms of, the Merger Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules thereto and the other documents develivered pursuant thereto).

6.              Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

7.              Headings. The headings for this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

9.              Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed by the party against whom such amendment or waiver shall be enforced. No failure or delay by any party hereto in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

10.            No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

11.            Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

12.            Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, for the purpose of any Proceeding (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the actions of any party hereto in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect to such Proceeding may be heard and determined exclusively in the federal and state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York.

(b) Each of the parties hereto (i) irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any other action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, on behalf of itself or its property, by personal delivery of copies of such process to such party, and nothing in this Section 12 shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law, (ii) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (iv) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the federal court located in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York (or if (but only if) the federal court located in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, shall be unavailable, the state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York). Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, a final trial court judgment. The consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 12 shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of New York and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto.

13.            WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

14.            Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, illegal or incapable of being enforced under any present or future Law, or public policy, (a) such term or other provision shall be fully separable, (b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, and (c) all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable term or other provision or by its severance herefrom so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

15.            Governing Law. This Agreement and all actions, proceedings or counterclaims (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the actions of any party in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York (except that the provisions of the Laws of the State of Nevada shall govern to the extent such Laws are otherwise mandatorily applicable to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby).

16.            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
