Amounts are based on the difference between the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2004 ($23.84) and the exercise price.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

        We have a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, or "SERP," which is intended to provide supplemental retirement benefits for certain of our senior executives. The SERP provides for retirement benefits according to a formula based on each participant's years of service and average rate of compensation. Payments under the SERP will commence upon a participant's termination of employment after reaching the age of at least 55 and having at least 10 years of full-time employment with us. The annual retirement benefit will be an amount equal to 3% of the participant's average compensation for the three highest consecutive calendar years in the last ten years before termination of employment, multiplied by the participant's years of full-time employment with us up to a maximum of 15 years. Accordingly, the maximum annual payment under the SERP would be 45% of a participant's highest average annual compensation. For example, a participant whose highest average annual compensation is $500,000 and who is credited with at least 15 years of full-time employment with us would receive 15 annual payments of $225,000 under the SERP. A participant may receive a total of 15 annual payments in that amount, or may elect to receive the discounted present value of those 15 annual payments in equal installments over a period of 5 or 10 years or in a single lump sum. The date for payment of benefits may be accelerated in the event of a participant's death or total permanent disability, and certain additional provisions will apply in the event of a change of control. If their highest average compensation were equivalent to their fiscal 2004 compensation, the Named Executive Officers who are participants in the SERP would be expected to receive annual retirement benefits for 15 years in the following estimated amounts, assuming their retirement after at least 15 years of service: Mr. Weil, $817,000; Mr. Schloss, $255,000; Mr. Laird, $234,000; and Mr. Huntley, $315,000. These amounts would be subject to an offset for Social Security benefits. Mr. Weil, Mr. Schloss, Mr. Laird and Mr. Huntley have 14, 12, 8 and 31 years of credited service, respectively, under the SERP. In addition, Mr. Weil, Mr. Schloss and Mr. Laird have provisions in their employment agreements with us concerning the calculation of their SERP benefits which in some respects supersede or supplement the terms of the SERP (see "Employment Agreements").

7


Deferred Compensation Plan

        We have a non-qualified deferred compensation plan that enables our executive officers and other eligible employees to defer receipt of up to 50% of their base salary and up to 100% of the cash bonus that may be awarded under our management incentive compensation program. The plan also enables our non-employee directors to defer receipt of up to 100% of the fees and other cash compensation payable for director services. Accounts are maintained for each of the participants, who elect to have their accounts mirror the performance of investment options that we may offer from time to time. It is intended that amounts deferred under the plan will not be subject to any federal and, in most cases, state and local income taxes until participants receive payment from the plan. Unless participants elect to extend a deferral period, deferrals and related earnings will be paid as soon as practicable following the end of the deferral period. Accounts may be distributed prior to that date if a participant leaves the Company, dies or becomes disabled, if there is a change in control, if we terminate the plan or, under extremely limited circumstances, in the event of an "unforeseeable emergency."

Employment Agreements

        A. Lorne Weil.    Mr. Weil serves as our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer pursuant to an amended and restated employment agreement dated as of February 28, 2003 with a term of employment ending December 31, 2007. The term extends automatically for an additional year on December 31, 2007 and on each succeeding December 31 thereafter unless written notice is given by us or by Mr. Weil prior to the June 30 preceding the date upon which such extension would become effective. Under the agreement, Mr. Weil currently receives a base salary of $1 million, which was increased to such rate on January 1, 2005 (subject to further increases on each January 1 thereafter to reflect increases, if any, during the preceding twelve months in the Consumer Price Index for the Greater New York area). Mr. Weil has the opportunity to earn up to $1 million as incentive compensation under our management incentive compensation program in each fiscal year through 2005 and thereafter by the amount equal to his base salary for the fiscal year. Under the agreement, Mr. Weil is entitled to participate in the SERP with an annual retirement benefit (notwithstanding the benefit otherwise calculated under the terms of the SERP) equal to approximately $807,000 in the case of a termination qualifying for benefits during 2005, which amount will be increased by $40,000 (plus an amount for inflation on the increased benefit) on each December 31 in the period 2005 to 2007, if he remains employed at that date. This benefit replaces the amount that would otherwise be calculated or payable under the SERP which is based on average highest compensation for three consecutive years.

        In the event Mr. Weil's employment is terminated by us without "cause" (which includes our election not to extend the term), or by Mr. Weil for "good reason" (which includes Mr. Weil's election not to extend the term and the failure to agree to the terms of his continued employment), or by reason of "total disability" (as such terms are defined in the employment agreement), Mr. Weil will be entitled to receive the following: (a) cash severance in a lump sum equal to three times a "severance base amount" of approximately $1,875,000, which will be adjusted for inflation on each January 1 in the period 2006 to 2007 based on the increase, if any, during the preceding twelve months in the Consumer Price Index for the Greater New York area; (b) his SERP benefit; (c) a pro rata annual incentive amount for the year of termination; (d) full vesting of stock options held at termination, which will remain exercisable until the scheduled expiration dates of such options; (e) full vesting and settlement of all deferred stock and other equity-based awards held at termination; (f) continued participation in certain employee benefit plans for a period of three years after termination other than due to "total disability," in which case the period shall be until age 65, or, if such plans do not allow continuation, a payment in lieu of such benefits; and (g) a payment to fund any excise tax that may be imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code by reason of a change in control, as well as an amount to fund any taxes payable with respect to such payment by us. If Mr. Weil's employment terminates due to

8



retirement or death, Mr. Weil will be entitled to receive the following: (a) his SERP benefit; (b) a pro rata annual incentive amount for the year of termination; (c) full vesting of stock options held at termination, which will remain exercisable until the earlier of the third anniversary of the date of termination and the scheduled expiration dates of such options; and (d) full vesting and settlement of all deferred stock and other equity-based awards held at termination.

        Martin E. Schloss.    Mr. Schloss serves as our Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary pursuant to an employment agreement dated November 1, 2002 and currently receives a base salary of $363,000 (subject to increases on each January 1 to reflect increases, if any, in the Consumer Price Index for the Greater New York area). The agreement has a term of employment ending December 31, 2005, which extends automatically for an additional year on December 31, 2005 and on each succeeding December 31 thereafter unless written notice is given by us or by Mr. Schloss prior to the September 30 preceding the date upon which such extension would become effective. Under the agreement, Mr. Schloss has the opportunity annually to earn incentive compensation under our management incentive compensation program and to participate in the SERP with a retirement benefit that determines his "final average compensation" by the greater of (i) the amount calculated under the SERP which is based on average highest compensation for three consecutive years and (ii) the amount equal to his then-current base salary plus a bonus amount calculated by multiplying his then-current base salary by the average highest percentage of incentive compensation relative to base salary that he received for three consecutive years. In the event Mr. Schloss's employment is terminated by us without "cause" (which includes our election not to extend the term), or by Mr. Schloss for "good reason," or by reason of "total disability" (as such terms are defined in the employment agreement), Mr. Schloss will be entitled to receive the following: (a) cash severance in a lump sum equal to the sum of his then current base salary and an incentive amount equal to the higher of the average annual incentive compensation paid for the prior three years and the amount payable upon achievement of maximum performance targets for the year of termination; (b) the payments and benefits otherwise payable under the SERP computed as described above with credit for five additional years of service; (c) full vesting of stock options held at termination; (d) full vesting and settlement of all deferred stock held at termination; and (e) continued participation in certain employee benefit plans for a period of three years after termination other than due to "total disability," in which case the period shall be until age 65, or, if such plans do not allow continuation, a payment in lieu of such benefits.

        In the event Mr. Schloss's employment is terminated without "cause" or for "good reason" and the termination occurs at the time of, within two years after, or in anticipation of, a "change in control," he will be entitled to receive the following: (a) cash severance in a lump sum equal to the three times the sum of his then-current base salary and an incentive amount equal to the higher of the average annual incentive compensation paid for the prior three years and the amount payable upon achievement of maximum performance targets for the year of termination; (b) the payments and benefits otherwise payable under the SERP computed as described above with credit for five additional years of service; (c) a pro rata annual incentive amount for the year of termination; (d) full vesting of stock options held at termination; and (e) full vesting and settlement of all deferred stock held at termination; and (f) a payment to fund any excise tax that may be imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code by reason of a change in control, as well as an amount to fund any taxes payable with respect to such payment by us. If Mr. Schloss's employment terminates due to retirement or death, he will be entitled to receive the following: (a) a pro rata annual incentive amount for the year of termination; (b) full vesting of stock options held at termination; and (c) any payments and benefits accrued under the SERP.

        DeWayne E. Laird.    Mr. Laird serves as our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer pursuant to an employment agreement dated November 1, 2002 and currently receives a base salary of approximately $353,000 (subject to increases on each January 1 to reflect increases, if any, in the Consumer Price Index for the Greater Philadelphia area). The agreement has a term of employment

9



ending December 31, 2005, which extends automatically for an additional year on December 31, 2005 and on each succeeding December 31 thereafter unless written notice is given by us or by Mr. Laird prior to the September 30 preceding the date upon which such extension would become effective. Under the agreement, Mr. Laird has the opportunity annually to earn incentive compensation under our management incentive compensation program and to participate in the SERP with a retirement benefit that determines his "final average compensation" by the greater of (i) the amount calculated under the SERP which is based on average highest compensation for three consecutive years and (ii) the amount equal to his then-current base salary plus a bonus amount calculated by multiplying his then-current base salary by the average highest percentage of incentive compensation relative to base salary that he received for three consecutive years. In the event Mr. Laird's employment is terminated by us without "cause" (which includes our election not to extend the term), or by Mr. Laird for "good reason," or by reason of "total disability" (as such terms are defined in the employment agreement), Mr. Laird will be entitled to receive the following: (a) cash severance in a lump sum equal to the sum of his then current base salary and an incentive amount equal to the higher of the average annual incentive compensation paid for the prior three years and the amount payable upon achievement of maximum performance targets for the year of termination; (b) the payments and benefits otherwise payable under the SERP computed as described above with credit for five additional years of service; (c) full vesting of stock options held at termination; (d) full vesting and settlement of all deferred stock held at termination; and (e) continued participation in certain employee benefit plans for a period of three years after termination other than due to "total disability," in which case the period shall be until age 65, or, if such plans do not allow continuation, a payment in lieu of such benefits.

        In the event Mr. Laird's employment is terminated without "cause" or for "good reason" and the termination occurs at the time of, within two years after, or in anticipation of, a "change in control," he will be entitled to receive the following: (a) cash severance in a lump sum equal to the three times the sum of his then-current base salary and an incentive amount equal to the higher of the average annual incentive compensation paid for the prior three years and the amount payable upon achievement of maximum performance targets for the year of termination; (b) the payments and benefits otherwise payable under the SERP computed as described above with credit for five additional years of service; (c) a pro rata annual incentive amount for the year of termination; (d) full vesting of stock options held at termination; and (e) full vesting and settlement of all deferred stock held at termination; and (f) a payment to fund any excise tax that may be imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code by reason of a change in control, as well as an amount to fund any taxes payable with respect to such payment by us. If Mr. Laird's employment terminates due to retirement or death, he will be entitled to receive the following: (a) a pro rata annual incentive amount for the year of termination; (b) full vesting of stock options held at termination; and (c) any payments and benefits accrued under the SERP.

        William J. Huntley.    Mr. Huntley serves as President of the Systems Division of Scientific Games International, Inc. pursuant to an Employment and Severance Benefits Agreement dated September 6, 2000 and currently receives a base salary of $450,000. The agreement has a term of employment ending September 5, 2005, which extends automatically for an additional year on September 5, 2005 and on each succeeding September 5 thereafter unless written notice is given by us or by Mr. Huntley at least 30 days prior to the date upon which such extension would become effective. Under the agreement, Mr. Huntley receives a transportation allowance of approximately $17,000 and has the opportunity to receive an annual cash bonus and an annual grant of stock options in amounts commensurate with, and based on substantially the same criteria as, those awarded to our executive officers. In the event Mr. Huntley's employment is terminated by us without cause or in the event of a constructive termination, Mr. Huntley will be entitled to receive the following: (a) a sum each month for a period of one year after termination equal to one-twelfth of the highest annual rate of base salary plus bonus paid during the twenty-four month period preceding the date of termination; (b) a pro rata bonus for the year of termination; and (c) continued participation in certain employee benefit plans for a period

10



of time not to exceed the period in which severance is being paid, and if such plans do not allow continuation and we are unable to obtain substantially similar benefits, payment in lieu of such benefits. If Mr. Huntley's employment is terminated due to disability, he will be entitled to receive a pro rata bonus for the year of termination and to continue to receive all disability, life and medical insurance benefits for a period of twelve months as well as his base salary for such period (to the extent payments under our disability plan do not cover 100% of base salary); and in the event of Mr. Huntley's death, his beneficiary will be paid a lump sum payment equal to six months of base salary and a pro rata bonus for the year of termination.

        Cliff O. Bickell.    Mr. Bickell serves as President of the Printed Products Division of Scientific Games International, Inc. pursuant to an Employment and Severance Benefits Agreement dated September 6, 2000 and currently receives a base salary of $375,000. The agreement has a term of employment ending September 5, 2005, which extends automatically for an additional year on September 5, 2005 and on each succeeding September 5 thereafter unless written notice is given by us or by Mr. Bickell at least 30 days prior to the date upon which such extension would become effective. Under the agreement, Mr. Bickell receives a transportation allowance of approximately $17,000 and has the opportunity to receive an annual cash bonus and an annual grant of stock options in amounts commensurate with, and based on substantially the same criteria as, those awarded to our executive officers.

Change in Control Agreements

        We entered into a Change in Control Agreement dated November 1, 1997 with various executives including Mr. Schloss, Mr. Laird and Mr. Huntley, which in the cases of Mr. Schloss and Mr. Laird has been superseded by their current employment agreements. The Change in Control Agreement has a term ending on October 31, 2005, which extends automatically for an additional year on October 31, 2005 and on each succeeding October 31 thereafter unless written notice is given prior to the April 30 preceding the date upon which such extension would become effective. Pursuant to the agreement, if we terminate the employment of an executive without "cause" or the executive terminates his employment for "good reason," at the time of or within two years following a "change in control" (as such terms are defined in the agreements), such executive will be entitled to receive the following: (a) cash severance in a lump sum equal to two times the sum of his then current base salary and the higher of the average annual incentive compensation paid to him for the three prior years, and the amount payable to him upon achievement of the target level of performance for the year of termination; (b) a pro rata annual incentive amount for the year of termination; (c) full vesting of stock options held at termination, and any options which were granted on or after November 1, 1997 (the effective date of the agreement) or, if previously granted, were not "in the money" on such effective date, will remain exercisable until the earlier of 36 months after termination and the scheduled expiration date of such options; (d) full vesting and settlement of all deferred stock held at termination; and (e) continued participation in certain employee benefit plans until the earliest of 18 months, the

11



date equivalent benefits are provided by a subsequent employer, and age 65, or, if such plans do not allow continuation, payment in lieu of such benefits. The agreements also provide that if the executive's employment is terminated without "cause" and he is not entitled to the severance described above, he will be entitled to receive a lump sum cash payment equal to his then current base salary.

Directors' Compensation

        Directors who are not employees of the Company receive the following compensation:

        The Board imposes a minimum meeting attendance requirement in connection with the annual awards of restricted stock such that only directors who have attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings held by the Board and Committees on which they served in the prior year are eligible to receive an award, except that a new director with less than six months of service in the prior year is not subject to such threshold with respect to the first grant made after becoming a director.

        The restricted stock granted to non-employee directors vests in three equal annual installments, one-third of the total on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant, and the options granted to non-employee directors become exercisable in four equal annual installments, one-quarter of the total on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant, and expire not later than the tenth anniversary of the date of grant. These awards vest in full if a director ceases to serve as a director due to death, disability, retirement or the failure to be re-elected to the Board.

        Mr. Weil, the only director who is employed by the Company, does not receive any additional compensation for his services as a director.

A person who has the right to acquire securities within 60 days of March 31, 2005 through the exercise or conversion of an option, warrant or other security is deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities which may be acquired. Such securities are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of calculating the percentage of outstanding securities owned by such person but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of calculating the percentage owned by any other person.

The "Equity compensation plans approved by security holders" consist of the 1992 Equity Incentive Plan; the 1997 Incentive Compensation Plan; the 2002 Employee Stock Purchase Plan; and the 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan.

(2)
The "Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders" consist of employment inducement stock options awarded during 2003; and the 1995 Equity Incentive Plan.

        Inducement Stock Options.    During 2003, we granted stock options covering a total of 170,000 shares under employment inducement award agreements to four newly hired employees. These options, 129,750 of which remained outstanding at December 31, 2004, were granted at exercise prices ranging from $5.88 to $7.60 per share and each such option has a ten-year term and becomes exercisable in four equal annual installments, one-quarter of the total on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant.

        The 1995 Equity Incentive Plan.    The 1995 Equity Incentive Plan, which was originally adopted by our Board of Directors in May 1995, authorizes grants of non-qualified stock options, deferred stock and other stock-related awards to employees who are not executive officers or directors. As of December 31, 2004, 850,552 shares were subject to outstanding awards under the 1995 Plan and 84,245 shares remained available for grant under the 1995 Plan. The 1995 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, which is authorized to select the participants, determine the type and number of awards to be granted and the number of shares of common stock to which awards will relate, specify times at which awards will be exercisable, set other terms and conditions of such awards, interpret and specify rules and regulations relating to the 1995 Plan, and make all other determinations that may be necessary or advisable for the administration of the 1995 Plan. The Committee's practice has been to award stock options which vest in four or five equal annual installments (with the first installment vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date), have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date, and expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant. The Committee may, in its discretion, accelerate the exercisability, the lapsing of restrictions,

15



or the expiration of deferral or vesting periods of any award, and such accelerated exercisability, lapse, expiration and vesting shall occur automatically in the event of a consolidation or merger of the Company or a sale of substantially all of the Company's assets. The Board may amend, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the 1995 Plan or the Committee's authority to grant awards thereunder without stockholder approval, except as required by law or regulation or under the Nasdaq rules which would require stockholder approval for material modifications of the 1995 Plan. Unless earlier terminated, the 1995 Plan will terminate at such time that no shares reserved under the 1995 Plan remain available and the Company has no further obligation with respect to any outstanding award.


ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

        Under a letter dated March 8, 2004, we engaged Ramius Securities, LLC ("Ramius") to act as a financial advisor on a non-exclusive basis in connection with certain acquisition, investment or financing transactions. If Ramius provides services with respect to a transaction which is consummated by us during the duration of the engagement letter or within 12 months thereafter, Ramius would receive a fee equal to 1%, or such other percentage (not to exceed customary amounts) as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties, of the acquisition consideration or other transaction value. The Company may engage a co-advisor or advisors in addition to Ramius for any transaction, in which case any fee to Ramius would be reduced by the fees of such co-advisor or advisors (provided that Ramius would receive a fee representing the relative value of its services as reasonably determined by us). We may also reasonably determine not to engage Ramius for any transaction, in which case Ramius would receive no fee. The engagement letter provides that Ramius would be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (not to exceed $50,000 in any year unless previously approved by the Company) and contains certain customary indemnification and other provisions. The engagement letter continues for a period of three years, subject to earlier termination by either Ramius or the Company on 30 days' notice. Peter A. Cohen, a director of the Company, is the President of Ramius and a principal of Ramius' parent company, Ramius Capital Group, LLC.

        In December 2004, we completed financing transactions which included issuing $200 million of 6.25% senior subordinated notes and $275 million of 0.75% convertible senior subordinated debentures in private offerings to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The initial purchasers of such securities included, among others, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Bear Stearns & Co. Inc., Jefferies & Company, Inc. and Ramius. The aggregate discounts received by the initial purchasers in connection with the placements totaled $12,250,000, of which 5%, or $612,500, was received by Ramius.

        Richard Weil, the brother of A. Lorne Weil, had been employed as our Vice President of International Business Development under an employment agreement dated January 1, 2003. We entered into a severance agreement with Richard Weil in July 2004 pursuant to which he left our employment and received: (a) cash severance of $498,100; (b) a payment of $1,705,000 in lieu of any payments or benefits under the SERP; (c) vesting of stock options, which remained exercisable for a period of 90 days following employment; (d) vesting of deferred stock; and (e) medical, life insurance and disability benefits coverage for a period of three years. All previous arrangements between us and Mr. Weil were terminated upon execution of the severance agreement, including under his employment agreement, except for certain provisions relating to such matters as confidentiality and competition and rights to indemnification. The options and deferred stock accelerated in accordance with the foregoing had a total pre-tax value of approximately $918,000 and $385,000, respectively, as of the date of acceleration.

        Under a retainer agreement dated December 20, 2004, we continued our engagement of Business Strategies & Insight, L.L.C ("BSI"), a public affairs consulting firm that has assisted us since 2001 in strategic planning relating to our business with governmental customers, both domestically and overseas. BSI, which specializes in helping companies who have business with lotteries and other

16

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Fees Paid to Independent Accountants

        Deloitte & Touche LLP billed the following fees for professional services rendered in respect of the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004:

 
  2003 Fees
  2004 Fees

Audit Related Fees:   $ 545,000   $ 355,000
Tax Fees:   $ 277,000   $ 1,527,000
All Other Fees:     0     0

        The Audit Fees listed above were billed in connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year and the review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal year and, for fiscal 2004, includes approximately $1,139,000 for services provided in connection with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Audit Related Fees listed above were billed for accounting consultations and audits in connection with acquisitions and in connection with filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Tax Fees listed above were billed for tax compliance, planning and advice, including with respect to proposed and consummated acquisitions and the integration of recently acquired businesses and, for fiscal 2004, the majority of fees related to the reorganization of our international operations.

Pre-Approval Policy for Services Performed by Independent Accountant

        The Audit Committee has responsibility for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of the independent accountant. As part of this responsibility, the Audit Committee must pre-approve all permissible services to be performed by the independent accountant.

        The Audit Committee has adopted an auditor pre-approval policy which sets forth the procedures and conditions pursuant to which pre-approval may be given for services performed by the independent auditor. Under the policy, the Committee must give prior approval for any amount or type of service within four categories—audit, audit-related, tax services or, to the extent permitted by law, other

17



services—that the independent accountant provides. Prior to the annual engagement, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval for independent auditor services within these four categories at maximum pre-approved fee levels. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent auditor for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval and, in those instances, such service will require separate pre-approval by the Audit Committee if it is to be provided by the independent auditor. For any pre-approval, the Audit Committee will consider whether such services are consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence, whether the auditor is best positioned to provide the most cost effective and efficient service and whether the service might enhance the Company's ability to manage or control risk or improve audit quality. The Audit Committee may delegate to one or more of its members authority to approve a request for pre-approval provided the member reports any approval so given to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
