Attachment Three

Service Level Agreements and Liquidated Damages Provisions

A. Assessment of Liquidated Damages

The Lottery and the Contractor agree that it will be extremely impractical and difficult to determine the anticipated or actual damages that the Lottery may sustain in the event of any delay in performing, or failure to perform, by the Contractor of its obligations under this Contract. The goods and services to be provided under this Contract are not readily available on the open market; any breach by the Contractor may delay and disrupt the

Lottery's operations and may lead to damages. Therefore, the parties agree that the liquidated damages as specified in all the sections below are reasonable and will remain reasonable as long as the Contract is in force.

In no case shall liquidated damages be measured in terms of potential lost revenue or potential lost net profit to the Lottery, unless otherwise explicitly stated by the parties in this agreement, and to the extent that the Lottery determines, or alternatively, that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that actual loss can be measured precisely and that the written liquidated damages provision is unreasonable and/or unenforceable as a matter of law.

Assessment of liquidated damages shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, such other remedies as may be available to the Lottery. Except and to the extent expressly provided herein, the Lottery shall be entitled to recover liquidated damages under each section applicable to any given incident.

1. Notification of Liquidated Damages All assessments of liquidated damages shall be made by the Lottery. Upon determination that liquidated damages are to or may be assessed, the Lottery shall notify the Contractor of the assessment in writing. The Contractor shall submit a quarterly report detailing the Contractor’s performance against the required service level agreements detailed in Section IV Service Level Agreements and Liquidated

Damages, Paragraph B. Calculation of Liquidated Damages Subparagraph 5. Player

Support Center (PSC) and Subparagraph 6 Payout and Risk Operations (PRO).

2. Conditions for Termination of Liquidated Damages

As determined by the Lottery, the following are the conditions under which the

Contractor may obtain relief from the continued assessment of liquidated damages that have been imposed.

Except as waived in writing by the Lottery, no liquidated damages imposed shall be terminated or suspended until the Contractor issues a written notice verifying the correction of the condition(s) for which liquidated damages were imposed, and all the Contract corrections have been subjected to system testing or other verification at the discretion of the Lottery.

The Contractor shall conduct systems testing of any correction as the Lottery deems necessary. Such testing shall be developed jointly by the Lottery and the

Contractor and approved by the Lottery. The Lottery shall be the sole judge of the accuracy of any documentation provided.

The documentation necessary for verification and approval shall be determined by the Lottery. The Lottery shall be the sole judge of the accuracy of any documentation period.

A Contractor notice of correction will not be accepted until the correction is verified by the Lottery.

3. Severability of Individual Liquidated Damages

If any portion of the liquidated damages provisions is determined to be unenforceable in one or more applications, that portion remains in effect in all applications not determined to be invalid and is severable from the invalid applications. If any portion of the liquidated damages provisions is determined unenforceable, the other provision or provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

4. Waivers of Liquidated Damages

It is expressly agreed that the waiver of any liquidated damages due the Lottery shall constitute a waiver only as to such liquidated damages and not a waiver of any future liquidated damages nor shall such waiver constitute a waiver of any other remedies, legal or equitable, which may be available to the Lottery. Failure to demand assessment of payment of liquidated damages within any period of time shall not constitute a waiver of such claim by the Lottery.

5. Payment of Liquidated Damages

All assessed liquidated damages will be deducted from any monies owed the Contractor by the Lottery and in the event the amount due the Contractor is not sufficient to satisfy the amount of the liquidated damages, the Contractor shall have the damages deducted from subsequent invoices. Recovery of liquidated damages will be accomplished by invoice deduction, lump sum payments, or a combination thereof within thirty (30) days. At the Lottery's sole option, the Lottery may obtain payment of assessed liquidated damages through one (1) or more claims upon the Performance Bond or insurance requirements listed herein.

6. Applicability of Liquidated Damages

The Contractor shall not be required to pay liquidated damages solely due to matters of "force majeure" or for time delays specifically approved by the Lottery.

The Contractor shall not be responsible or liable for any late delivery or delay or failure of performance caused in whole or in part by the Lottery's delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under this Contract. In the event of any such delay or failure, the Contractor and the Lottery shall negotiate in good faith an extension of all or any subsequent due dates as reasonably necessary.

The foregoing is in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other remedies the Contractor may have for any failure or delay by the Lottery.

Liquidated Damages of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) for each incident.

(b) The Contractor will ensure that modification batches or changes to the System meet the schedule and deadlines as outlined and agreed upon by Contractor and Lottery. If the Contractor fails to adhere to schedule, then the Lottery may impose Liquidated Damages of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) for missing the deadline plus one thousand dollars ($1,000) per day after the deadline. If the

Contractor fails to adhere to schedule for any revenue generating Draw Game, the Lottery may impose Liquidated Damages of the estimated lost profit as calculated by the Lottery for each day that the modification is not deployed to a maximum of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) for each incident. Contractor will not be responsible for Liquidated Damages if it is determined by the

(c) The Contractor shall provide the Lottery with quality tested software and hardware within a minimum of thirty (30) days prior to the deployment for

Lottery Acceptance Testing, unless mutually agreed upon by Contractor and

"Modification" does not include replacement of a System component with an essentially similar working component in the event of necessary maintenance. If the Contractor modifies any software or hardware without the prior written approval of the Lottery, the Lottery may issue a written order that the modification be removed, and the System restored to its previous operating state at the Contractor's expense. Further, the Lottery may impose Liquidated Damages of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) per violation in addition to any other damages that may occur as a result of such unauthorized modification.

(ii) iLottery System Down

(a) Excluding pre-approved downtime for maintenance as confirmed by the

Lottery and the Exceptions noted in subparagraph (ii)(d) below, the Contractor shall ensure that the core and operational functionality of the System is available as measured over the course of each calendar month at least 99.9% of the time. The System shall be unavailable for no more than fifteen (15) minutes during any single calendar day. The System is "available” for the purposes of this Subsection (ii) (a) when it is able to accept any connections and/or process any player requests including but not limited to the following:

registration, login, instant wagering, draw game wagering, redeeming bonuses, deposit, and withdrawal. The Lottery may impose Liquidated Damages in an amount calculated as the lost profits for the System down time, per minute, for each minute exceeding 15 minutes in a single calendar day or each minute below 99.9% availability during any calendar month (each such minute, a

“Minute Down”).

Lost profits are defined as Net Profit Per Minute multiplied by Minutes Down.

Net Profit Per Minute is calculated as follows:

Net Profit Per Minute = Sales Per Minute multiplied by the Lottery Net Profit

Percentage

• Sales Per Minute = Sales Per Hour divided by 60 o Sales Per Hour = An average of the historical sales for each hour of the incident for same day for the previous three (3) weeks and for three (3) weeks after the incident for a total of six (6) weeks (the “Calculation Period”).

• Net Profit Percentage o eInstants: 100% minus average game prize payout rate minus

System Fee rate minus (weighted average of (i) Instant Games Content Fee rate and (ii) Third-Party Instant Games Content Fee) rate minus applicable Content Aggregation Fee rate minus average promotional rate, each as calculated during the relevant Calculation

Period = Net Profit Percentage. Note that “average promotional rate” will be translated into a percentage of gross wagering activity, where it is typically referenced as a percentage of net gaming revenues.

o Draw-Based Games (designed for prize payouts of 60% or less):

100% minus designed game prize payout rate minus Draw-Based Games Content Fee rate minus average promotional rate, as calculated during the relevant Calculation Period = Net Profit Percentage. Note that “average promotional rate” will be translated into a percentage of gross wagering activity, where it is typically referenced as a percentage of net gaming revenues.

o Draw-Based Games (designed for prize payouts greater than 60%):

100% minus designed game prize payout rate minus System Fee minus average promotional rate, as calculated during the relevant

Calculation Period = Net Profit Percentage. Note that “average promotional rate” will be translated into a percentage of gross wagering activity, where it is typically referenced as a percentage of net gaming revenues.

(b) Excluding pre-approved downtime for maintenance as confirmed by the

Lottery and the Exceptions noted in subparagraph (ii)(d) below, the Contractor will ensure that Major Back-Office Functionality in the System is available as measured over the course of each calendar month at least 99.9% of the time.

Liquidated Damages in an amount of three thousand dollars ($3,000) for the first hour with this amount increasing one thousand dollars ($1,000) each hour to a maximum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per hour, or fraction thereof, which is greater than fifteen (15) minutes in duration during any calendar day or for each minute below 99.9% availability during any calendar month.

(c) In the event that both the core and operational functionality of the System and the Major Back-Office Functionality in the System are down simultaneously, the Lottery may impose the greater of the Liquidated Damages assessable pursuant to subparagraphs (a) or (b) above, but may not assess Liquidated

Damages under each of subparagraphs (a) and (b). It is the intention of the parties that Liquidated damages be assessed without duplication.

(d) No period of System inoperability will be included in calculating availability to the extent that such downtime is due to any of the following (“Exceptions”):

• The Lottery's, or any individual player's, misuse of the System;

• Failures of the Lottery's, or any individual player's, internet connectivity;

• Internet or other network traffic problems other than problems arising in or from networks actually or required to be provided or controlled by the Contractor or its Subcontractors;
