Amendment to Non-Compete and Employment Agreements Between Dover Downs Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. and Certain Executives
Dover Downs Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. and four executives—Denis McGlynn, Timothy R. Horne, Klaus M. Belohoubek, and Edward J. Sutor—have amended their existing Non-Compete or Employment and Non-Compete Agreements. The amendment ensures that, despite the company freezing contributions to its Retirement Plan and SERP, the executives' lump sum payments after a change in control will be calculated as if the plans continued unchanged as of January 1, 2011. This protects the executives' benefits under the original agreements.
Exhibit 2.1
AMENDMENT TO
CERTAIN AGREEMENTS
BETWEEN
DOVER DOWNS GAMING & ENTERTAINMENT, INC.
AND
CERTAIN EXECUTIVES
WHEREAS, Dover Downs Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. (the Company) has heretofore entered into certain Non-Compete or Employment and Non-Compete Agreements with the following executives (each, an Individual): Denis McGlynn dated as of February 13, 2006; Timothy R. Horne dated as of February 13, 2006; Klaus M. Belohoubek dated as of February 13, 2006; and Edward J. Sutor dated as of February 13, 2006, providing for certain payments following a Change in Control (each, an Agreement); and
WHEREAS, the Agreements provided for a certain lump sum payment to be made to each Individual calculated by reference to the Retirement Plan and SERP; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to freeze pension contributions to its Retirement Plan and SERP but without diminishing the value of the benefits provided under the Agreements;
NOW THEREFORE, the Company and each of the Individuals hereto agree as follows:
1. Terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreements.
2. Section 3(c)(iii) to the Agreements is amended so that the lump sum payment provided thereunder is unaffected by the freezing of the Retirement Plan and the SERP and shall be calculated as if each one continued in existence as they were in effect on January 1, 2011.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company through its officer duly authorized, and each of the undersigned Individuals, each intending to be legally bound, have duly executed and delivered this Amendment to his respective Agreement, to be effective as of June 15, 2011.
