Executive Supplemental Savings Plan II (the “Plan”), effective as of January 1, 2005, in order to provide key executives and senior management employees with an opportunity and incentive to save for retirement and other purposes.

The purpose of this Plan is to provide a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Company and certain of its affiliates with the opportunity to defer a portion of their compensation and to receive contributions from their employers. As a result, the Plan is intended to be a “top hat plan,” exempt from certain requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), pursuant to Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. This Plan is not intended to qualify for favorable tax treatment pursuant to Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any successor section or statute. This Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code.

The Plan was subsequently amended by the First and Second Amendments to the Plan and was amended and restated generally effective as of January 1, 2005.

The Company has adopted this Amendment and Restatement of the Plan, effective as of August 3, 2007.

This Amendment and Restatement of the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. As provided in Notice 2006-79, with respect to an election or amendment to change a time and form of payment under the Plan made on or after January 1, 2007 and on or before December 31, 2007, the election or amendment shall apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable in 2007 and shall not cause an amount to be paid in 2007 but would not otherwise be payable in 2007.

(c) Subject to subsection (d), if the subaccounts of a Participant’s Accounts for any Deferral Period are to be distributed in the form of monthly installment payments, and such Participant is a Specified Employee as of the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service, the monthly installment payments that otherwise would be made to such Participant prior to the date which is six months after the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of such Participant’s death) shall be accumulated in the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period and paid commencing on such date in accordance with Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(2), as adjusted to reflect the rate of return on the hypothetical Investment Funds selected by the Participant in accordance with Section 6.4. The subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period shall be distributed in installment payments, commencing on the date which is six months after the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of such Participant’s death), over the installment payment period designated under the Separation from Service Election for the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for the Deferral Period.

(d) In the case of a Participant who was a Specified Employee as of the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service, and whose monthly installment payments commenced during 2005 in accordance with Section 8.3 of the Plan, monthly installment

payments shall be paid during 2005 in accordance with the transitional relief under Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005 Q/A 20, and such monthly installments shall be suspended effective as of January 1, 2006 and until the date which is six months after the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service in accordance with Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder and recommenced after the date which was six months after the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of such Participant’s death). Any monthly installment payments subject to such suspension shall be accumulated and paid after such date in accordance with Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, as adjusted to reflect the rate of return on the hypothetical Investment Funds selected by the Participant in accordance with Section 6.4. The subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period shall be distributed in installment payments, commencing after the date which is six months after the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of such Participant’s death), over the installment payment period designated under the Separation from Service Election for the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for the Deferral Period.

(a) Separation from Service Election Payments. In the event a Participant made a Separation from Service Election with respect to a Deferral Period, the distribution from the subaccounts in such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period shall be made in a lump sum payment, or in monthly installment payments, in accordance with Section 8.1 (Distribution Elections); provided, however, that, in the case of a Caesars Participant, such Caesars Participant’s Transferred Caesars Accounts shall be distributed in accordance with the special Separation from Service Election, as provided under Section 8.1(e); and, provided, further, that in the case of a Harrah’s ESSP Participant, such Harrah’s ESSP Participant’s Transferred Harrah’s ESSP Accounts shall be distributed in accordance with the special Separation from Service Election, as provided under Section 8.1(f).

(b) Distribution Year Election Payment. In the event a Participant made a Distribution Year Election with respect to a Deferral Period, the distribution from the subaccounts in such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period shall be made to such Participant in a lump sum payment. Such lump sum payment shall be made not later than sixty (60) days after the date determined under Section 8.3(b).

(1) In the event of a Participant’s death prior to such Participant’s Separation from Service, the distributions from the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for all Deferral Periods shall be made to his or her Beneficiary in a lump sum payment. Such lump sum payment shall be made not later than ninety (90) days after the date determined under Section 8.3(b).

(2) In the event of a Participant’s death after his or her Separation from Service, the distributions from the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts shall be made or continue to be made to his or her Beneficiary in accordance with the Participant’s

Separation from Service Election or Distribution Year Election in accordance with Sections 8.1 and 8.2, and distribution payments shall be made to the Beneficiary in the same form as such distribution payments would have been made to such Participant.

(1) In the event a Participant makes a Separation from Service Election, and elects distribution in the form of installment payments, the amount of each monthly installment in any calendar year for the distribution of the subaccounts in a Participant’s Accounts for a Deferral Period shall be calculated as follows. The amount of the monthly installment shall be determined before the first installment is paid and on each January 1^st in all subsequent calendar years; provided, however, that in the case of installment payments that are suspended under Section 8.3(d), the amount of the monthly installment shall be determined on the date as of which the installment payments recommence under Section 8.3(d). The amount of each monthly installment for such calendar year shall be determined by dividing: (A) the number of remaining monthly installments into (B) the Participant’s vested balance in the subaccounts in the Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period, determined as of the last Valuation Date of the prior month. A Participant’s last installment payment shall be adjusted as needed to reflect investment gains or losses. If the total of the vested balance in the Participant’s Accounts (and the vested balances in the Participant’s accounts in all other agreements, methods, programs or other arrangements with respect to which deferrals of compensation are treated as having been deferred under a single nonqualified deferred compensation plan under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(c)(2)), determined as of any date that is on or after January 1, 2008 and on or after monthly installment payments commence, is not greater than the applicable dollar amount under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code, such vested balance in the Participant’s Accounts (and the vested balances in such other agreements, methods, programs and arrangements) shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum payment not later than sixty (60) days after such date in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(v).

(2) If installment payments are made, the provisions of Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5 shall continue to apply to the unpaid interest in the relevant subaccounts.

(3) In the event that a Caesars Participant’s special Separation from Service Election, determined under Section 8.1(e), provides for the distribution of such Caesars Participant’s Transferred Caesars Accounts in the form of installment payments, the amount of each monthly installment payment for any calendar year for the distribution of such Caesars Participant’s Transferred Caesars Accounts shall be calculated by applying paragraph (1) separately with respect to such Caesars Participant’s Transferred Caesars Accounts.

(a) General. In the event of the death of the Participant, the Participant’s vested interest in his or her Accounts shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary as described in Section 8.4(c). Each Participant shall have the right to designate, in the manner specified by the EDCP Committee, a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to receive his benefits hereunder in the event of the Participant’s death.

(b) Spousal Consent Requirements. If the Participant is married at the time the Beneficiary designation is filed, the Participant must designate his spouse as the Beneficiary of at least 50% of the Participant’s Accounts or provide the spouse’s consent to the designation of a Beneficiary other than the spouse. If a Participant marries or divorces after a Beneficiary designation is filed, the designation will no longer be effective.

(c) Revised Designations. Subject to the spousal consent requirements noted above, each Participant may change his Beneficiary designation from time to time in the manner described above. Upon receipt of such designation by the EDCP Committee, such designation or change of designation shall become effective as of the date of the notice, whether or not the Participant is living at the time the notice is received. There shall be no liability on the part of the Employer, the EDCP Committee or the Trustee with respect to any payment authorized by the EDCP Committee in accordance with the most recent Beneficiary designation of the Participant in the possession of the EDCP Committee before the EDCP Committee receives a more recent Beneficiary designation.

(d) Deemed Beneficiary Designations. If no designated Beneficiary is living when benefits become payable, or if there is no designated Beneficiary, the Beneficiary shall be the Participant’s spouse. If there is no living spouse, the Beneficiary shall be the Participant’s estate. If the designated Beneficiary dies after the payment of benefits begin, then the Beneficiary for the remainder of the benefits payable shall be the estate of the Beneficiary.

8.6 Prohibition on Acceleration of Distributions. The time or schedule of payment of any withdrawal or distribution under the Plan shall not be subject to acceleration, except as provided under Treasury Regulations promulgated in accordance with Section 409A(a)(3) of the Code, or as provided in Sections 8.9 and 8.10 in accordance with the transitional relief under Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-1 Q/A-19(c), the Proposed Regulations under Section 409A of the Code and Internal Revenue Service Notice 2006-79.

8.7 Withholding and Payroll Taxes. The Employer shall withhold from Plan payment any taxes required to be withheld from such payments under federal, state or local law. Any withholding of taxes or other amounts required by federal, state or local law with respect to amounts credited to a Participant’s Accounts including, without limitation to, tax due under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act, shall be withheld, to the maximum extent possible, from the portion of the Participant’s Salary or Bonus that is not contributed to this Plan (or, in the case of a Caesars Participant, from the portion of the Caesars Participant’s “Base Compensation” and “Bonus Compensation” (each, as defined in the Caesars Plan) that is not contributed to this Plan). Any withholding amount that cannot be withheld in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be withheld from the Participant’s Deferral Contributions (or, in the case of a Caesars Participant, from the Caesars Participant’s deferral contributions under Sections 4.5(a) and (b)).

(a) Subject to Section 8.11, a Participant, or a Beneficiary of a deceased Participant, may elect to receive a special lump sum distribution from such Participant’s or Beneficiary’s Accounts on June 1, 2008 (or within thirty (30) days thereafter) in accordance with this Section 8.9. A Participant’s or Beneficiary’s special lump sum distribution shall be made only from the Accounts in which such Participant or Beneficiary has a fully vested interest, determined as of the last day of the Special Distribution Election Period. The special lump sum distribution shall be in the amount equal to the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s designated percentage of the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s interest in such Accounts, and such designated percentage of the Account shall be credited to a special subaccount of such Account. Such special lump sum distribution shall be made proportionately from such Participant’s or Beneficiary’s Accounts (and the subaccounts thereunder) and shall apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable before January 1, 2008.

(b) A Participant, or a Beneficiary of a deceased Participant, shall elect to receive a special lump sum distribution under subsection (a) by completing and delivering a Special Lump Sum Distribution Agreement in accordance with the rules and procedures adopted by the EDCP Committee for such purpose. Such Participant or Beneficiary shall designate the whole percentage (up to a maximum of 100%) of such Participant’s or Beneficiary’s interest in his or her Accounts to be distributed in such special lump sum distribution. Such Participant or Beneficiary must complete and deliver such Special Lump Sum Distribution Agreement not later than the last day of the Special Distribution Election Period, and such Participant’s or Beneficiary’s Special Lump Sum Distribution Agreement shall become irrevocable as of the last day of the Special Distribution Election Period. Such special Separation from Service Election, or special Distribution Year Election, shall supersede such Participant’s prior distribution election with respect to the portion of such Participant’s Accounts subject to such special Separation from Service Election or special Distribution Year Election, except as provided in Section 8.11.

(c) Special distribution elections under this Section 8.9 shall be subject to such administrative rules, procedures and restrictions as are prescribed by the EDCP Committee in its discretion. No election may be made under this Section 8.9 after the last day of the Special Distribution Election Period.

(a) Subject to Section 8.11, a Participant may elect in accordance with this Section 8.10 to make a special Separation from Service Election, or a special Distribution Year Election, with respect to any Deferral Period ending on or before December 31, 2007. Such special Separation from Service Election or special Distribution Year Election shall apply to the portion of the Participant’s Accounts attributable to compensation amounts deferred during such Deferral Period.

(1) Special Separation from Service Elections. A special Separation from Service Election under this Section 8.10 with respect to a Deferral Period shall provide for the distribution of the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period upon

such Participant’s Separation from Service and shall be in a form of distribution permitted under Section 8.1(b) and selected by the Participant in such Participant’s Special Distribution Election Agreement; provided, however, that such installment period shall not extend beyond fifteen (15) years following such Participant’s Separation from Service. If such Participant makes a special Separation from Service Election under this Section 8.10 and fails to select a form of distribution for purposes of distributions from the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for a Deferral Period, such distributions shall be made in a lump sum payment. A Participant may not change his or her special Separation from Service Election under this Section 8.10 with respect to a Deferral Period, or the form of distribution of the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period.

(2) Special Distribution Year Elections. A special Distribution Year Election under this Section 8.10 with respect to a Deferral Period shall provide for the distribution of the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period upon the earlier of the first day of the Distribution Year (as selected by the Participant), or the Participant’s Separation from Service. Such Participant shall select the Distribution Year for purposes of distributions from the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period. The Distribution Year shall be not earlier than the 2009 calendar year, and shall not be later than the 2027 calendar year. The distribution of the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts for such Deferral Period shall be made in a lump sum payment. A Participant may change such Participant’s special Distribution Year Election with respect to a Deferral Period in accordance with Section 8.2.

(b) If a Participant elects to make a special Separation from Service Election, or a special Distribution Year Election, with respect to a Deferral Period under this Section 8.10, such special Separation from Service Election or special Distribution Year Election shall apply to the subaccounts of such Participant’s Accounts (including, without limitation, such Participant’s Transferred Caesars Accounts and Transferred Harrah’s ESSP Accounts, if any) for such Deferral Period and shall apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable before January 1, 2008 or payable in accordance with a special lump sum distribution election under Section 8.9.

(c) A Participant shall make a special Separation from Service Election, or a special Distribution Year Election, with respect to a Deferral Period under subsection (a) by completing and delivering a Special Distribution Election Agreement in accordance with rules and procedures adopted by the EDCP Committee for such purpose. Such Participant must complete and deliver such Special Distribution Election Agreement not later than the last day of the Special Distribution Election Period, and such Participant’s Special Distribution Election Agreement shall become irrevocable as of the last day of the Special Distribution Election Period. Such special Separation from Service Election, or Distribution Year Election, shall supersede such Participant’s prior Separation from Service Election, or Distribution Year Election with respect to the portion of such Participant’s Accounts subject to such special Separation from Service Election or special Distribution Year Election, except as provided under Section 8.11.

(d) Special Separation from Service Elections and special Distribution Year Elections under this Section 8.10 shall be subject to such administrative rules, procedures and restrictions as are prescribed by the EDCP Committee in its discretion. No election may be made under this Section 8.10 after the last day of the Special Distribution Election Period.

(a) The Plan shall be interpreted, construed and administered in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (subject to the transitional relief under Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-1, the Proposed Regulations under Section 409A of the Code and other applicable authority issued by the Internal Revenue Service).

(b) As provided in Internal Revenue Notice 2006-79, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, with respect to any election under Section 8.9 or 8.10, or any other election or amendment to change a time and form of payment under the Plan made on or after January 1, 2007 and on or before December 31, 2007, the election or amendment shall apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable in 2007 and shall not cause an amount to be paid in 2007 that would not otherwise be payable in 2007.

9.12 Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. The Plan shall be interpreted, construed and administered in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(a) A Participant or Beneficiary who believes that he or she has not received the benefits to which he or she is entitled may assert a claim for benefits under the Plan in accordance with the claims procedure of this Article Ten. The claims procedure of this Article Ten shall be applied in accordance with Section 503 of ERISA and Department of Labor Regulation Section 2560.503-1. A Participant or Beneficiary may assert a benefit claim, or appeal the denial of a benefits claim, through such Participant’s or Beneficiary’s authorized representative, provided that such Participant or Beneficiary has submitted a written notice evidencing the authority of such representative to the EDCP Committee. A Participant or Beneficiary asserting a benefits claim shall be referred to as a “Claimant” under this Article Ten.

(b) A Claimant shall submit his or her benefits claim under the Plan in writing to the EDCP Committee. The Claimant may include documents, records or other information relating to the benefits claim for review by the EDCP Committee in connection with such benefits claim.

(a) The EDCP Committee shall review the Claimant’s benefits claim (including any documents, records or other information submitted with such benefits claim) and determine whether such benefits claim shall be approved or denied in accordance with the Plan.

(b) In the event that a Claimant’s benefits claim is wholly or partially denied, the EDCP Committee shall provide to the Claimant with written notice of the denial within a

reasonable period of time, but not later than ninety (90) days after the receipt of the benefits claim by the EDCP Committee, unless the EDCP Committee determines that special circumstances require an extension of time for making a determination with respect to the benefits claim. If the EDCP Committee determines that an extension of time for making a determination with respect to the benefits claim is required, the EDCP Committee shall provide the Claimant with written notice of such extension prior to the end of the initial ninety (90) day period. The extension of time shall not exceed a period of ninety (90) days from the end of such initial period. The extension notice shall indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the EDCP Committee expects to render the benefit determination.

(c) The notice of denial of the Claimant’s benefits claim shall set forth:

(3) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why the material or information is necessary; and

(d) The Claimant may appeal any denial of the benefits claim in writing to the EDCP Committee within sixty (60) days after receipt of the EDCP Committee’s notice of denial of benefits claim. The Claimant’s failure to appeal the denial of the benefits claim by the EDCP Committee in writing within the sixty (60) day period shall render the EDCP Committee’s determination final, binding, and conclusive.

(a) A Claimant may appeal the denial of a benefits claim to the EDCP Committee. The EDCP Committee shall review the appeal of the denial of the benefits claim and make a final determination as to whether the benefits claim should be approved or denied in accordance with the Plan.

(b) The Claimant shall be afforded the opportunity to submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the benefits claim, and the Claimant shall be provided, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to all documents, records, and other information relevant to the Claimant’s benefits claim. A document, record or other information shall be considered “relevant” to the benefits claim, as provided in Department of Labor Regulation Section 2560.503-1(m)(8). The review on appeal by the EDCP Committee shall take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted by the Claimant, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the EDCP Committee’s initial determination with respect to the benefits claim. The EDCP Committee shall

advise the Claimant in writing of the EDCP Committee’s determination of the appeal within sixty (60) days of the claimant’s written request for review, unless special circumstances (such as a hearing) would make the rendering of a determination within the sixty (60) day period infeasible, but in no event shall the EDCP Committee render a determination regarding the denial of a claim for benefits later than one hundred twenty (120) days after its receipt of a request for review. If an extension of time for review is required because of special circumstances, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the Claimant prior to the date the extension period commences.

(c) The notice of denial of the Claimant’s appeal of the denial of the Claimant’s benefit claim shall set forth:

(2) reference to the specific Plan provisions on which the denial of the appeal is based;

(4) a statement describing Claimant’s right to bring an action under ERISA Section 502(a).

(d) If, upon appeal, the EDCP Committee shall grant the relief requested by the Claimant, then, in addition, the EDCP Committee shall award to the Claimant reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, or any other duly authorized representative of Claimant, which shall be paid by the Company. The determination as to whether such fees and expenses are reasonable shall be made by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion and such determination shall be binding and conclusive on all parties.

10.4 Notice of Denials. The EDCP Committee’s notice of denial of a benefits claim shall identify the address to which the Claimant may forward his appeal.

11.1 Anti-Alienation Clause. No benefit which shall be payable under the Plan to any person shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, charge or otherwise dispose of the same shall be void. No benefit shall in any manner be subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any person, nor shall it be subject to attachment or legal process for or against any person, except to the extent as may be required by law. The benefits provided by this Plan are not subject to the qualified domestic relations order provisions of ERISA or the Code.

11.2 Permitted Arrangements. Section 11.1 (Anti-Alienation Clause) shall not preclude arrangements for the withholding of taxes from benefit payments, arrangements for the recovery of benefit overpayments, arrangements for the transfer of benefit rights to another plan, or arrangements for direct deposit of benefit payments to an account in a bank, savings and loan association or credit union (provided that such arrangement is not part of an arrangement constituting an assignment or alienation).

11.3 Payment to Minor or Incompetent. Whenever any benefit which shall be payable under the Plan is to be paid to or for the benefit of any person who is then a minor or determined by the EDCP Committee to be incompetent, the EDCP Committee need not require the appointment of a guardian or custodian, but shall be authorized to cause the same to be paid over to the person having custody of the minor or incompetent, or to cause the same to be paid to the minor or incompetent without the intervention of a guardian or custodian, or to cause the same to be paid to a legal guardian or custodian of the minor or incompetent if one has been appointed or to cause the same to be used for the benefit of the minor or incompetent.

(a) The Company shall have the right at any time, by an instrument in writing duly executed, acknowledged and delivered to the EDCP Committee, to modify, alter or amend this Plan, in whole or in part, prospectively or retroactively (including, without limitation, to modify, alter or amend this Plan to comply with Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and applicable guidance thereunder). Additionally, the EDCP Committee shall also have the right to modify, alter or amend the Plan by written instrument provided that such amendment does not have a material adverse financial effect on the Company or the Plan. No amendment shall substantially increase the duties and liabilities of the EDCP Committee and the Trustee hereunder without its written consent. No amendment shall reduce any Participant’s vested interest in the Plan, calculated as of the date on which the amendment is adopted.

(b) Any Affiliate or other entity adopting this Plan hereby delegates the authority to amend the Plan to the Company and the EDCP Committee. If the Plan is amended after it is adopted by an Affiliate, unless otherwise expressly provided, it shall be treated as so amended by such Affiliate without the necessity of any action on the part of the Affiliate. An Affiliate or other entity that has adopted this Plan may terminate its future participation in the Plan at any time.

12.2 Merger or Consolidation of Company. The Plan shall not be automatically terminated by the Company’s acquisition by or merger into any other employer, but the Plan shall be continued after such acquisition or merger if the successor employer elects and agrees to continue the Plan. Except as provided in Section 12.4 (Continuation of Plan following Change of Control), all rights to amend, modify, suspend, or terminate the Plan shall be transferred to the successor employer, effective as of the date of the merger.

12.3 Termination of Plan or Discontinuance of Contributions. It is the expectation of the Company that this Plan and the contributions hereunder shall be continued indefinitely. However, continuance of the Plan is not assumed as a contractual obligation of the Company. Except as provided in Section 12.4 (Continuation of Plan following a Change of Control), the Company reserves the right at any time to terminate this Plan or to reduce, temporarily suspend or discontinue contributions hereunder. If this Plan is terminated, all Plan benefits shall be distributed in accordance with Article Eight and the Separation from Service Elections and the Distribution Year Elections of the Participants, following the termination of the Plan.

12.4 Continuation of Plan following a Change of Control. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, if a Change of Control occurs following the Effective Date of this Plan, a successor employer shall have the power to (a) terminate this Plan, (b) amend Section 13.5 (Funding upon a Change of Control) of the Plan, or (c) amend any provision of the Plan that affects a Participant’s entitlement to a distribution from the Plan, only if 80% of the individuals who are Participants in the Plan, both as of the date of the Change of Control and as of the date of the adoption of such amendment or termination, consent to such an amendment or termination. The provisions of this Section 12.4 shall not limit a successor employer’s authority to take other actions with respect to the Plan, including the authority to discontinue contributions to the Plan.

12.5 Limitation of Company’s Liability. The adoption of this Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on the part of the Company and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Company and any employee or Participant or to be consideration for, an inducement to, or a condition of the employment of any employee. A Participant, employee, or Beneficiary shall not have any right to retirement or other benefits except to the extent provided herein.

12.6 Limitation on Distributions. To the extent that any payment to be made to a Participant under this Plan during a taxable year of such Participant’s Employer, when combined with all other payments received or to be received during such taxable year of the Participant’s Employer that are subject to the limitation on deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Code, would exceed the limitation on deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Code, such payment under the Plan shall be delayed in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(i) to such Participant’s Separation from Service (or, in the case of a Participant who is a Specified Employee as of the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service, the date which is six months after the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of such Participant’s death) in accordance with Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and the Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(2) and shall be paid in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(i). Any payment that is deferred in accordance with this Section 12.6 shall be credited with hypothetical investment earnings and losses in accordance with Article Six (Crediting of Contributions and Income).

13.1 Limitation of Rights. Neither this Plan, the Trust nor membership in the Plan shall give any employee or other person any right except to the extent that the right is

specifically fixed under the terms of the Plan. The establishment of the Plan shall not be construed to give any individual a right to be continued in the service of a Employer or as interfering with the right of a Employer to terminate the service of any individual at any time.

13.2 Construction. The masculine gender, where appearing in the Plan, shall include the feminine gender (and vice versa), and the singular shall include the plural, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary. Headings and subheadings are for the purpose of reference only and are not to be considered in the construction of this Plan. If any provision of this Plan is determined to be for any reason invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. All of the provisions of this Plan shall be construed and enforced in accordance with ERISA and, to the extent applicable, the laws of the State of Nevada.

13.3 Status of Participants as Unsecured Creditors. All benefits under the Plan shall be the unsecured obligations of the Company and each Employer, as applicable, and, except for those assets which will be placed in the Trust established in connection with this Plan, no assets will be placed in trust or otherwise segregated from the general assets of the Company or each Employer, as applicable, for the payment of obligations hereunder. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company and each Employer, as applicable.

13.4 Status of Trust Fund. The Trust Fund is being established to assist the Company and the Employers in meeting their obligations to the Participants and to provide the Participants with a measure of protection in certain limited instances. In certain circumstances described in the Trust Agreement, the assets of the Trust Fund may be used for the benefit of the Company’s or an Affiliate’s creditors and, as a result, the Trust Fund is considered to be part of the Company’s and Employer’s general assets. Benefit payments due under this Plan shall either be paid from the Trust Fund or from the Company’s or Affiliate’s general assets as directed by the EDCP Committee. Despite the establishment of the Trust Fund, it is intended that the Plan be considered to be “unfunded” for purposes of the ERISA and the Code.

13.5 Funding upon a Change of Control. Immediately before the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall determine whether, for any reason, the assets of the Trust Fund are less than the sum of: (a) the aggregate Account balances of all Participants (determined without regard to the vested interest of each Participant), and (b) the total amount of Enhancement Contributions to which Harrah’s ESSP Participants will become entitled under Section 4.6 upon such Change of Control, and shall transfer an amount equal to the deficiency to the Trustee of the Trust. If it is discovered at any time that the amount initially transferred is less than the total amount called for by the preceding sentence, the shortfall, including any accrued interest on the shortfall, shall be transferred to the Trustee immediately upon the discovery of such error.

13.6 Uniform Administration. Whenever in the administration of the Plan any action is required by the EDCP Committee, such action shall be uniform in nature as applied to all persons similarly situated, except as otherwise provided to the contrary in this Plan document or the Trust Agreement.

13.7 Heirs and Successors. All of the provisions of this Plan shall be binding upon all persons who shall be entitled to any benefits hereunder, and their heirs and legal representatives.

13.8 Electronic Administration. The EDCP Committee shall have the authority to employ alternative means (including, but not limited to, electronic, internet, intranet, voice response or telephonic) by which Participants may submit participation elections, directions, and forms required for participation in, and the administration of, this Plan. If the EDCP Committee chooses to use these alternative means, any elections, directions or forms submitted in accordance with the rules and procedures promulgated by the EDCP Committee will be deemed to satisfy any provision of this Plan calling for the submission of a written election, direction or form.

To signify its adoption of this Amendment and Restatement of the Harrah’s Entertainment, Inc. Executive Supplemental Savings Plan II, the Company has caused this Plan document to be executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company as of August 3, 2007.
