This Employment Agreement is made and entered into this 11th day of November, 2010, by and between Robert Kocienski (“Executive”) and American Wagering, Inc. (“AWI” or “Employer”) (individually each is a “party” or collectively, the “parties”).

Employer and Executive have determined to enter into an agreement concerning Executive’s employment as Chief Operating Officer and Principal Financial Officer (“COO” and “PFO”);
