December 7, 2004, IGT filed a complaint in US District Court for
the District of Nevada, alleging that defendants Alliance Gaming
Corp., Bally Gaming Int'l, Inc., and Bally Gaming, Inc. infringed
six US patents held by IGT: US Patent Nos. 6,827,646; 5,848,932;
5,788,573; 5,722,891; 6,712,698; and 6,722,985. On January 21,
2005, defendants filed an answer denying the allegations in the
complaint and raising various affirmative defenses to IGT's
asserted claims. Defendants also asserted fourteen counterclaims
against IGT, including counterclaims for a declaratory judgment of
non-infringement, invalidity, and unenforceability of the asserted
patents, and for antitrust violations and intentional interference
with prospective business advantage. IGT has successfully moved for
partial summary judgment on defendants’ counterclaims for
intentional interference with prospective business advantage and
defendants’ antitrust allegations related to the gaming
machine market. IGT denies the remaining allegations. On May 9,
2007, the Court issued an order construing disputed terms of the
asserted patent claims. On October 16, 2008, the Court issued
summary judgment rulings finding certain of IGT’s patents,
including patents that IGT believes cover bonus wheel gaming
machines, invalid as obvious. The rulings also found that Bally was
not infringing certain patents asserted by IGT. Bally’s
antitrust and unfair competition counterclaims remain pending. On
November 7, 2008, the Court issued an order staying the proceedings
and certifying the summary judgment and claim construction rulings
for immediate appeal. On December 1, 2008, IGT appealed the rulings
to the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. On January 8,
2009, Bally moved to dismiss the appeal on jurisdictional grounds.
On February 2, 2009, the Federal Circuit denied the Bally motion
without prejudice to the parties raising jurisdictional issues in
their merits briefs. On October 22, 2009, the Federal Circuit
affirmed the District Court’s summary judgment rulings. A
trial on Bally’s antitrust and unfair competition
counterclaims has not yet been scheduled.</font></div><br/><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">Certain

April 28, 2006, IGT filed a complaint in US District Court for the
District of Delaware, alleging that defendants Bally Technologies,
Inc., Bally Gaming Int'l, Inc., and Bally Gaming, Inc. infringed
nine US patents held by IGT: US Patent Nos. RE 38,812; RE 37,885;
6,832,958; 6,319,125; 6,244,958; 6,431,983; 6,607,441; 6,565,434;
and 6,620,046. The complaint alleges that the “BALLY POWER
BONUSING™” technology infringes one or more of the
claims of the asserted IGT patents. The lawsuit seeks monetary
damages and an injunction. On June 30, 2006, defendants filed an
answer denying the allegations in the complaint and raising various
affirmative defenses to IGT’s asserted claims. Defendants
also asserted twelve counterclaims against IGT, including
counterclaims for a declaratory judgment of non-infringement,
invalidity, and unenforceability of the asserted patents, antitrust
violations, unfair competition, and intentional interference with
prospective business advantage. IGT denies these allegations.
Pursuant to stipulation of the parties, all claims and
counterclaims except those relating to US Patent Nos. RE 37,885
("the '885 patent"), RE 38,812 ("the '812 patent"), and 6,431,983
have been dismissed. All proceedings relating to Bally’s
antitrust, unfair competition, and intentional interference
counterclaims have been stayed. On April 28, 2009, the court issued
a summary judgment ruling finding the '885 and '812 patents valid.
The court also ruled that Bally's "Power Rewards" and "ACSC Power
Winners" products infringe certain claims of the '885 and '812
patents. The court granted Bally's motion for summary judgment that
Bally's "SDS Power Winners" does not infringe the '885 patent and
"Power Bank" and "Power Promotions" do not infringe the '983
patent. The court denied Bally's motion for summary judgment that
the '983 patent is invalid. The parties have agreed that Bally's
counterclaim for a declaratory judgment on invalidity of the '983
patent will be dismissed without prejudice. IGT’s motion for
a permanent injunction against Bally’s infringing products is
pending. A trial to determine the amount of damages incurred by
IGT, and related matters, as a result of Bally's infringement has
not yet been scheduled.</font></div><br/><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-STYLE: italic; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">2006

Quebec commenced an action in warranty against VLC, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of IGT, and another manufacturer of video
lottery machines in October 2003, in the Superior Court of the
Province of Quebec, District of Quebec, seeking indemnification for
any damages that may be awarded against Loto Quebec in a class
action suit, also filed in the Superior Court of the Province of
Quebec. The class action claim against Loto Quebec, to which
neither IGT nor any of its affiliates are parties, was filed by
Jean Brochu on behalf of himself and a class of other persons who
allegedly developed pathological behaviors through the play of
video lottery machines made available by Loto Quebec in taverns and
other public locations. In this action, the plaintiff seeks to
recover on behalf of the class damages of approximately CAD$578.7
million, representing CAD$4,863 per class member, and CAD$119.0
million in punitive damages. Loto Quebec filed its Plea in Defense
in the main action in February 2006. On August 1, 2008, Loto Quebec
filed a discontinuance of the action in warranty against VLC.
Notwithstanding the discontinuance, Loto Quebec may still pursue

abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets,
