On November 5, 2008, the Conflicts Committee of Elixir Gaming Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) voted unanimously to revise the committee’s charter. The charter had previously allowed for a right of veto of any agreement or transaction between the Company and Elixir Group Limited or any of its affiliates involving an aggregate amount in excess of $200,000 that was approved by the Company’s board of directors. With a view to further improving the corporate governance, the charter was revised to require review and approval in advance of such agreements or transactions, if any, by the Company’s Conflicts Committee. The new charter will take effect five business days from the date of the report.
