Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR ALL” the nominees proposed by our Board of Directors on the WHITE proxy card.

PROXY STATEMENT

GENERAL INFORMATION

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of SciPlay Corporation (“SciPlay,” the “Company,” “we” or “us”) of proxies to be voted at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held at 11:00 a.m. PDT on Wednesday, June 8, 2022, solely online via the Internet via a live webcast, and any adjournment or postponement of the meeting for the purposes set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Explanatory Note

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or JOBS Act, and therefore permitted to take advantage of certain reduced public company reporting requirements. As an emerging growth company, we provide in this Proxy Statement the scaled disclosure permitted under the JOBS Act, including the compensation disclosures required of a “smaller reporting company”, as that term is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition, as an emerging growth company, we are not required to conduct votes seeking approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers or the frequency with which such votes must be conducted. Similarly, we are also exempt from the chief executive officer pay ratio disclosure rules, as required under The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Our status as an emerging growth company will end as soon as any of the following takes place: (1) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenue; (2) the date we qualify as a “large accelerated filer,” with at least $700 million of equity securities held by non-affiliates; (3) the date on which we have issued, in any three-year period, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or (4) the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of the completion of our initial public offering (the “IPO”).

Access to Proxy Materials

We expect our proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement, our WHITE proxy card and our 2021 Annual Report, to first be mailed on or about [•], 2022 and to first be made available to stockholders at that time through the Investors link on our website at www.sciplay.com or through www.proxyvote.com.

Stockholders Entitled to Vote

All stockholders of record at the close of business on April 11, 2022 are entitled to vote at the annual meeting. At the close of business on April 11, 2022, 24,661,195 shares of Class A common stock and 103,547,021 shares of Class B common stock were outstanding, respectively. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters that properly come before the meeting and each share of Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes on all matters that properly come before the meeting. Holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters described in this Proxy Statement.

Voting Procedures

You may vote your shares by proxy without attending the annual meeting. We encourage stockholders to submit their proxies in advance of the annual meeting. You can ensure that your shares are voted by completing, signing and returning the WHITE proxy card or voting your shares over the Internet or by telephone pursuant to the instructions provided on the WHITE proxy card. If you are voting over the Internet or by telephone, you will need to provide the control number that is printed on the WHITE proxy card that you receive. Voting your shares by proxy by any of these methods will not affect your right to attend and vote at the annual meeting or by executing a proxy designating a representative to vote for you at the annual meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Stockholders of Record

If your shares are registered in your name on the Company’s books and records or with its transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, you are the “stockholder of record” or “registered holder” of those shares. To vote, please complete, sign and return the WHITE proxy card or vote your shares over the Internet or by telephone pursuant to the instructions provided on the WHITE proxy card. Proxies submitted by the Internet or telephone must be received by 11:59 p.m. EDT on June 7, 2022. If you are the record holder of your shares, you may also vote your shares during the annual meeting (up until the closing of the polls) by following the instructions provided during the annual meeting. In order to attend the annual meeting, you must pre-register at http://viewproxy.com/SciPlayCorporation/2022 by June 7, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. EDT.

Even if you plan to attend the annual meeting, we encourage you to vote by completing, signing and returning the WHITE proxy card or voting your shares over the Internet or by telephone pursuant to the instructions provided on the WHITE proxy card.

Beneficial Owners of Shares Held in “Street Name”

If you are not the record holder of your shares (i.e., they are held in “street” name by a broker, bank or other nominee), you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name”. The broker, bank or other nominee holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the annual meeting. Your broker, bank or other nominee has enclosed a WHITE voting instruction form for you to use in directing your broker, bank or other nominee as to how to vote your shares. You must follow these instructions in order for your shares to be voted. Because of the contested nature of the election, if you do not give instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee, they may not be able to vote your shares with respect to any of the proposals. We urge you to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee, by following the instructions on the enclosed WHITE voting instruction form, to vote your shares in accordance with the Board’s recommendations. If you are a beneficial owner and wish to attend and vote your shares at the annual meeting, you must first obtain a proxy issued in your name from your broker, bank or other nominee that is the record holder of your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the annual meeting.

Meeting Format

The 2022 annual meeting of stockholders will be a virtual meeting format as holding an in-person meeting may present an unacceptable risk to the health and safety of the stockholders. Stockholders will only be able to access the annual meeting virtually. The Company has designed the format of the virtual annual meeting to ensure that stockholders are afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting, using online tools to ensure stockholder access and participation. More information about the online annual meeting is provided in this Proxy Statement.

Voting Matters and Board Recommendations

Stockholders are being asked to vote on the following matters at the annual meeting:

	Proposal			Board’s Recommendation
	Proposal 1: Election of Directors (page 7)			FOR each of the Board’s Nominees
	The Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believe that the nine director nominees recommended by the Board possess a combination of qualifications, experience and judgment necessary for a well-functioning Board and the effective oversight of the Company.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

	Proposal			Board’s Recommendation
	Proposal 2: Ratification of the Appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as the Company’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (page 34)			FOR
	The Audit Committee has appointed Deloitte to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. As a matter of good corporate governance, stockholders are being asked to ratify the Audit Committee’s appointment of Deloitte.

Other Candidates Nominated for Election as Directors at the Annual Meeting in Opposition to the Board’s Nominees

Engine Capital has notified the Company of its intent to nominate a slate of two alternative nominees for election as directors at the annual meeting in opposition to the nominees recommended by the Board. The Board does NOT endorse any of the Engine Capital nominees and strongly urges you to discard and NOT sign or return any [COLOR] proxy card sent to you by Engine Capital. The Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR ALL” the nominees proposed by the Board on the WHITE proxy card.

If you have previously submitted a [COLOR] proxy card sent to you by Engine Capital, you can revoke that proxy and vote for the Board’s recommended nominees and on the other matters to be voted on at the annual meeting by (i) completing, signing and returning the WHITE proxy card, (ii) voting over the Internet or by telephone pursuant to the instructions provided on the WHITE proxy card or (iii) voting at the meeting. Only your latest dated proxy will count, and any proxy may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise at the annual meeting as described in this Proxy Statement. We are not responsible for the accuracy of any information that may be provided by or relating to Engine Capital or its nominees contained in any solicitation materials that may be filed or disseminated by or on behalf of Engine Capital or any other statements Engine Capital may make.

It will NOT help elect the nominees recommended by the Board if you sign and return proxy cards sent by Engine Capital, even if you vote to “WITHHOLD” your vote with respect to their nominees using the Engine Capital proxy card. In fact, doing so will cancel any previous vote cast by you on the Company’s proxy. The only way to support the Board’s recommended nominees is to vote “FOR” the Board’s recommended nominees by using the enclosed WHITE proxy card. Only the last proxy received will be counted.

Whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting, it is important that your shares be represented and voted at the annual meeting. We encourage you to promptly vote and submit your WHITE proxy in advance of the annual meeting completing, signing and returning the WHITE proxy card or voting your shares over the Internet or by telephone pursuant to the instructions provided on the WHITE proxy card. If you attend the annual meeting, you can vote even if you previously submitted your proxy.

If Engine Capital proceeds with its previously announced alternative director nomination, we may conduct multiple mailings of the Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy materials prior to the annual meeting date so that stockholders have our latest proxy information and materials to vote. We will send you a new WHITE proxy card with each mailing, regardless of whether you have previously voted. The latest-dated proxy you submit will be counted, and, if you wish to vote as recommended by the Board, then you should only submit WHITE proxy cards.

Changing Your Vote

A stockholder may revoke a proxy at any time prior to its being voted by (i) delivering written notice to the Secretary of the Company, (ii) executing and delivering the WHITE proxy card, (iii) voting by proxy over the Internet or by telephone pursuant to the instructions provided on the WHITE proxy card or (iv) voting at the annual meeting.

If you have previously submitted a [COLOR] proxy card sent to you by Engine Capital, you can revoke that proxy and we urge you to revoke that proxy and vote for the Board of Directors’ recommended nominees and on the other matters to be voted on at the annual meeting by (i) delivering written notice to the Secretary of the Company, (ii) completing, signing and returning the WHITE proxy card, (iii) voting over the Internet or by

TABLE OF CONTENTS

telephone pursuant to the instructions provided on the WHITE proxy card or (iv) voting at the meeting. Only your latest dated proxy will count, and any proxy may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise at the annual meeting as described in this Proxy Statement.

Quorum

The presence, including by proxy (regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on all matters), of the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding shares of capital stock at the annual meeting constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business. If you “WITHHOLD” your vote in the election of directors or “ABSTAIN” (rather than vote “FOR” or “AGAINST”) with respect to any other proposal, your shares will count as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present.

Vote Required

Vote Required for the Election of Directors (Proposal 1)

Assuming a quorum is present, directors will be elected (Proposal 1) by a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the annual meeting. This means that the nine candidates receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. If you “WITHHOLD” your vote in the election of directors, your shares will count as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present but will not be considered to have been voted for the director nominee.

Engine Capital has notified the Company of its intent to nominate a slate of two alternative nominees for election as directors at the annual meeting in opposition to the nominees recommended by the Board. It will NOT help elect the nominees recommended by the Board if you sign and return proxy cards sent by Engine Capital, even if you vote to “WITHHOLD” your vote with respect to their nominees using the Engine Capital proxy card. In fact, doing so will cancel any previous vote cast by you on the Company’s proxy. The only way to support the Board’s recommended nominees is to vote “FOR” the Board’s recommended nominees by using the enclosed WHITE proxy card. Only the last proxy received will be counted.

Vote Required for the Ratification of the Appointment of Deloitte as the Company’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Proposal 2)

The ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting. If you “ABSTAIN” (rather than vote “FOR” or “AGAINST”) with respect to this proposal, your shares will count as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, but will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal.

Effect of Broker Non-Votes

A broker “non-vote” occurs when a broker, bank or other nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker, bank or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power on that item and has not received specific instructions from the beneficial owner. Under applicable rules that govern brokers, banks and other nominees who are voting with respect to shares held in street name, brokers, banks or other nominees ordinarily have the discretion to vote on “routine” matters (e.g., ratification of the selection of independent public accountants) but not on non-routine matters (e.g., election of directors). In the case of a contested election of directors, the applicable rules that govern brokers, banks and other nominees will not permit them to exercise discretionary authority regarding any of the proposals to be voted on at the annual meeting, whether “routine” or not.

If your shares are held in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares, then your broker, bank or other nominee will not be able to vote your shares with respect to Proposal 1. To the extent that Engine Capital provides you with a [COLOR] proxy card or voting instruction form, then your broker, bank or other nominee will not be able to vote with respect to Proposal 2 and your shares will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists if you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares. If Engine Capital does not provide you with a

TABLE OF CONTENTS

[COLOR] proxy card or voting instruction form, your broker, bank or other nominee will be able to vote your shares with respect to Proposal 2 and your shares will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

We urge you to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee, by following the instructions on the enclosed WHITE voting instruction form, to vote your shares in accordance with the Board’s recommendations on the WHITE voting instruction form, including to vote “FOR ALL” the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors, whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting.

Effect of Not Providing Specific Voting Instructions

All valid proxies received prior to the annual meeting will be voted in accordance with the instructions specified by the stockholder. If you are the record holder of your shares and (i) your WHITE proxy card is returned without instructions or (ii) you indicate when voting over the Internet or by telephone that you wish to vote as recommended by the Board, the persons named as proxy holders on your proxy card will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board in “Voting Matters and Board Recommendations” above.

With respect to any other matter that properly comes before the annual meeting, the proxy holders will vote as recommended by the Board or, if no recommendation is given, in their own discretion.

If your shares are held in “street name” (that is, held for your account by a broker, bank or other nominee), you will receive voting instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee. You must follow these instructions in order for your shares to be voted. Your broker is required to vote those shares in accordance with your instructions. If you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares, then your broker, bank or other nominee will not be able to vote your shares with respect to Proposal 1 and, to the extent that Engine Capital provides you with a [COLOR] proxy card or voting instruction form, with respect to Proposal 2. If Engine Capital does not provide you with a [COLOR] proxy card or voting instruction form, your broker, bank or other nominee will be able to vote your shares with respect to Proposal 2. We urge you to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee, by following the instructions on the enclosed WHITE voting instruction form, to vote your shares in accordance with the Board’s recommendations on the WHITE voting instruction form, including to vote “FOR ALL” the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors, whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting.

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, we are not aware of any matter other than those described in this Proxy Statement that will be acted upon at the annual meeting. In the event that any other matter properly comes before the meeting for a vote of stockholders, the persons named as proxies in the enclosed form of proxy will vote in accordance with their best judgment on such other matter.

Recommended Response to [COLOR] Proxy Cards Sent by Engine Capital

Engine Capital has notified the Company of its intent to propose its own director nominees for election at the annual meeting. The Company does not know whether Engine Capital will in fact nominate these individuals for election as directors at the annual meeting or solicit proxies. The nominations made by Engine Capital have NOT been endorsed by the Board. We are not responsible for the accuracy of any information that may be provided by or relating to Engine Capital or its nominees contained in any solicitation materials that may be filed or disseminated by or on behalf of Engine Capital or any other statements Engine Capital may make.

The Board does NOT endorse any of the Engine Capital nominees and strongly urges you to discard and NOT sign or return any [COLOR] proxy card sent to you by Engine Capital. The Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR ALL” the nominees proposed by the Board on the WHITE proxy card. Voting to “WITHHOLD” with respect to any of the Engine Capital nominees on any proxy card sent to you by Engine Capital is not the same as voting “FOR ALL” the Board’s recommended nominees because a vote to “WITHHOLD” with respect to any of Engine Capital’s nominees on its proxy card will revoke any previous proxy submitted by you.

Our Relationship with Light & Wonder, Inc. (formerly known as Scientific Games Corporation)

On May 7, 2019, we completed the IPO of our Class A common stock, which is traded on The NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol “SCPL.” We also have issued and outstanding shares of Class B common stock. On all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, our Class B common stock entitles its owners to 10 votes per share (for so long as the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by certain Light & Wonder, Inc. (formerly known as Scientific Games Corporation) (“Light & Wonder”) affiliates represents at least 10% of our outstanding shares of common stock and, thereafter, one vote per share), and our Class A common stock entitles its owners to one vote per share. As of December 31, 2021, Light & Wonder owned all of the outstanding Class B common stock, which represents approximately 80.8% of our total outstanding shares of common stock and approximately 97.7% of the combined voting power of both classes of our outstanding common stock. As long as Light & Wonder continues to control shares representing a majority of our combined voting power, it will generally be able to determine the outcome of all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval.

As of the close of business on April 11, 2022, Light & Wonder owned, directly or indirectly, all shares of Class B common stock, which represent approximately 97.7% of the combined voting power of both classes of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Light & Wonder intends to vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board in “Voting Matters and Board Recommendations” above, which will ensure that the director nominees proposed by the Board will be elected to the Board (Proposal 1), that the appointment of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm will be ratified (Proposals 2) and that the Engine Capital nominees will not be elected to the Board.

Counting the Votes

Representatives of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. will tabulate the votes and will act as the inspector of election.

Results of the Voting at the Annual Meeting

The Company will report voting results in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 8-K subsequent to the annual meeting.

BACKGROUND OF THE SOLICITATION

The summary below details the significant contacts between the Company and Engine Capital. This summary does not purport to catalogue every conversation of or among members of the Board, the Company’s management, the Company’s advisors, representatives of Engine Capital and their advisors relating to the Engine Capital solicitation. Engine Capital LP is a stockholder which, together with its affiliates and related persons, purportedly was the owner of an aggregate of 1,983,207 shares of our Class A common stock, or approximately 8.1% of the outstanding shares of our Class A common stock, as of March 11, 2022 and first became a stockholder in December 2021 (in each case as disclosed to the Company by Engine Capital on March 11, 2022).

On January 14 and February 11, 2022, Brad Favreau, a partner at Engine Capital, had telephone calls with James Bombassei, head of Investor Relations for Light & Wonder, who provides investor relations assistance to the Company, concerning various questions Mr. Favreau had relating to the Company.

On January 25, 2022, Joshua Wilson, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Robert Gustafson, the Company’s General Counsel, had a call with Arnaud Ajdler, a managing partner at Engine Capital, and Mr. Favreau. Mr. Ajdler set forth Engine Capital’s views with respect to the strategic alternatives available to the Company.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

On March 9, 2022, Mr. Cottle and Mr. Bombassei spoke with Mr. Ajdler and Mr. Favreau, in response to Mr. Ajdler’s request. During this call, Mr. Ajdler conveyed Engine Capital’s intent to nominate two directors to the Board and Engine Capital’s views with respect to the strategic alternatives available to the Company. Mr. Ajdler further stated that if the Board did not endorse Engine Capital’s director nominees, Engine Capital would make public its director nominations and views on the Company.

On March 11, 2022, Engine Capital delivered a notice of nomination letter to the Secretary of the Company and filed a Schedule 13D with the SEC, which, amongst other things, informed the Company of Engine Capital’s ownership in the Company and of Engine Capital’s intent to nominate a slate of two alternative nominees for election as directors to the Board at the 2022 annual meeting in opposition to the nominees recommended by the Board.

Qualifications of Directors

Our directors are responsible for overseeing the management of the Company’s business and affairs, which requires highly skilled and experienced individuals. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for evaluating and making recommendations to the Board concerning the appropriate size and needs of the Board with the objective of maintaining the necessary experience, skills and independence on the Board. Other than the minimum age requirement specified in the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board do not have specific qualifications that must be met by a candidate for director. However, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board believe that there are general qualifications that are applicable to all directors and other skills and experience that should be represented on the Board as a whole, but not necessarily by each director. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board consider the experience and qualifications of prospective directors individually and in the context of the Board’s overall composition and make no distinction in the evaluation of nominees recommended by our directors or executive officers, third parties or our stockholders in accordance with the provisions contained in our Amended and Restated Bylaws.

In its assessment of prospective directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board generally consider, among other factors, the individual’s character and integrity, experience, judgment, independence and ability to work collegially, as well as the ability of a potential nominee to devote the time and effort necessary to fulfill his or her responsibilities as a director. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board also assess particular qualifications, attributes, skills and experience that they believe are important to be represented on the Board as a whole, in light of the Company’s business. These include a high level of financial literacy, relevant chief executive officer or similar leadership experience, social gaming industry experience, experience with global operations, exposure to the development and marketing of technology products and legal and regulatory experience.

As a matter of practice, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board also consider the diversity of the backgrounds and experience of prospective directors as well as their personal characteristics (e.g., gender, ethnicity, age) in evaluating, and making decisions regarding, Board composition, in order to facilitate Board deliberations that reflect a broad range of perspectives. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board believe that the Board is comprised of a diverse group of individuals.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board believe that each nominee has valuable individual skills and experiences that, taken together, provide the variety and depth of knowledge, judgment and vision necessary for the effective oversight of the Company. As indicated in the foregoing biographies, the nominees have extensive experience in a variety of fields, including the Company’s industry (Messrs. Cottle, Wilson, Marchetti and Earl and Ms. James), technology (Messrs. Cottle, Wilson, Earl, Marchetti and Prober and Mses. James and Henry), management and/or operations (all directors), financial services (Messrs. Marchetti and Thompson and Ms. James), corporate governance (Messrs. Cohen and Thompson and Ms. Henry) and public accounting (Mr. Cohen and Ms. James), each of which the Board believes provides valuable knowledge about important elements of our business. Most of our nominees have leadership experience at major companies or organizations that operate inside and outside the United States and/or experience on other companies’ boards, which provides an understanding of ways other companies address various business matters, strategies, corporate governance and other issues. As indicated in the foregoing biographies, the nominees have each demonstrated significant leadership skills, including as a chief executive officer (Messrs. Cottle, Wilson, Earl, Marchetti and Prober), as a partner, chief administrative officer and senior managing director of an investment banking and financial services company (Mr. Thompson), as a partner and member of the partner advisory council of a major accounting firm (Mr. Cohen) and as a founder and managing partner at an internet marketing service (Ms. Henry). Mr. Thompson has extensive public policy, government and regulatory experience, which can provide valuable insight into issues faced by companies in industries such as that of the Company. Messrs. Cottle, Wilson, Earl, and Marchetti and Ms. James have served as senior executives and directors of other gaming and entertainment companies, which service has given them deep knowledge of the Company and its businesses and directly relevant management experience. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board believe that these skills and experiences, together with their other qualities, qualify each nominee to serve as a director of the Company.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR ALL” NINE OF THE BOARD’S RECOMMENDED NOMINEES ON THE WHITE PROXY CARD

Engine Capital has notified the Company of its intent to nominate a slate of two alternative nominees for election as directors at the annual meeting in opposition to the nominees recommended by the Board. As a result, assuming such nominees are in fact proposed for election at the annual meeting, the election of directors will be considered a contested election and, as provided in the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws and assuming a quorum is present, directors will be elected by a plurality. This means that the nine candidates receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. If you “WITHHOLD” your vote in the election of directors, your shares will count as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, but will not be considered to have been voted for the director nominee.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Overview. The Company is committed to good corporate governance, which we believe promotes the long-term interests of our stockholders and strengthens Board and management accountability. Highlights of our corporate governance structure and policies include:

	Corporate Governance Highlights
	• Annual election of all directors			• Executive compensation based on pay-for-performance philosophy
	• Six independent director nominees under all applicable rules and regulations of NASDAQ			• Absence of an “anti-takeover” rights plan and other “anti-takeover” provisions
	• Regular executive sessions of independent directors			• Code of Business Conduct (and related training)
	• Separate Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles			• Director and officer stock ownership guidelines
	• Regular Board and committee self-evaluations			• Consideration of diversity in decisions regarding Board composition
	• Risk management oversight by the Board and committees			• Anti-hedging and anti-pledging policies
	• Cash and equity compensation clawback policy

Director Independence. As the Company is a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NASDAQ Stock Market rules, the Board is not required to, but may, from time to time, have a majority of directors who meet the criteria for independence required by NASDAQ. The Board has adopted Director Independence Guidelines as a basis for determining whether individual directors are independent under the standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market rules. This determination, which is made annually, helps assure the quality of the Board’s oversight of management and reduces the possibility of damaging conflicts of interest.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Under these standards, a director will not qualify as independent if:

(1)

the director has been employed by the Company (or any subsidiary) at any time within the past three years, other than service as an interim executive officer for a period of less than one year;

(2)

the director has an immediate family member who has been employed as an executive officer of the Company (or any subsidiary) at any time within the past three years;

(3)

the director or an immediate family member of the director has accepted any compensation (including any political contribution to a director or family member) from the Company (or any subsidiary) in excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the past three years other than (a) for Board or Board committee service, (b) in the case of the family member, as compensation for employment other than as an executive officer, (c) benefits under a tax-qualified retirement plan or non-discretionary compensation or (d) compensation for service as an interim executive officer for a period of less than one year;

(4)

the director or an immediate family member of the director is a partner, controlling shareholder or executive officer of an organization (including a charitable organization) that made payments to, or received payments from, the Company for property or services in the current year or in any of the past three years that exceed the greater of 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenues or $200,000, other than (a) payments arising solely from investments in the Company’s securities or (b) payments under non-discretionary charitable contribution matching programs;

(5)

the director or an immediate family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of another entity where at any time during the past three years any of the executive officers of the Company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or

(6)

the director or an immediate family member of the director is a current partner of the Company’s outside auditor, or was a partner or employee of the Company’s outside auditor who worked on the Company’s audit at any time during any of the past three years.

In applying these standards, the Board determined that each of Messrs. Cohen, Earl, Marchetti, Prober and Thompson and Ms. Henry, qualifies as an independent director, and none has a business or other relationship that would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment. Messrs. Cottle, Wilson and Ms. James do not qualify as independent directors. The three standing committees of the Board — the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, are comprised solely of independent directors.

The full text of the Board’s Director Independence Guidelines, including information on the additional independence requirements applicable to Board committee members, can be accessed through the Investors — Corporate Governance link on our website at www.sciplay.com.

Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that outline the structure, role and functioning of the Board and address various governance matters including director independence, the Board selection process, length of Board service, Board meetings and executive sessions of independent directors, Board and committee performance evaluations and management succession planning. The full text of these guidelines can be accessed through the Investors — Corporate Governance link on our website at www.sciplay.com.

Board Leadership Structure. As described above, all of the director nominees qualify as independent directors, other than Mr. Cottle, our Executive Chairman, Mr. Wilson, our Chief Executive Officer and Ms. James. The Audit and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees are comprised entirely of independent directors. Each member of the Compensation Committee is an independent director. From June 2021 through April 2022, following Mr. Penske’s departure from the Board, which left the Compensation Committee with a single member, and in light of Light & Wonder’s subsequent offer to acquire our public shares not already owned by Light & Wonder, the Board determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company for the Board to review and approve matters that would normally be delegated to the Compensation Committee. The Board has the flexibility to select the leadership structure that is most appropriate for the Company and its stockholders and has determined that the Company and its stockholders

TABLE OF CONTENTS

are best served by not having a formal policy regarding whether the same individual should serve as both Executive Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. This approach allows the Board to elect the most qualified director as Executive Chairman of the Board, while maintaining the ability to separate the Executive Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer roles when deemed appropriate. The Executive Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer roles are currently held by two different individuals.

The Board believes its current leadership structure is appropriate because it effectively allocates authority, responsibility and oversight between management and the independent members of the Board.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight. The Board is responsible for overseeing management in the execution of its responsibilities and for assessing the Company’s approach to risk management, including ensuring that sufficiently robust risk and compliance policies and procedures are in place and are functioning properly to bring key risk and compliance matters to the Board’s attention. The Board exercises these responsibilities on an ongoing basis as part of its meetings and through the Board’s committees, each of which examines various components of enterprise risk as part of its responsibilities. An overall review of risk is inherent in the Board’s consideration of the Company’s strategies and other matters presented to the Board, including financial matters, investments, acquisitions and divestitures. An overall review of risk is inherent in the Board’s consideration of the Company’s strategies, such as product and market concentration, competition, acquisitions and divestitures and business transformation, and other matters presented to the Board, including operational risks, such as information technology, cybersecurity, personnel and supply chain; financial risks, such as financial reporting, valuation, market and liquidity risks; compliance risks; and environmental, social and governance risks, such as sustainability, social responsibility, diversity, equity and inclusion, management structure and employee compensation. The Board’s role in risk oversight is consistent with the Company’s leadership structure, with the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management having responsibility for managing the Company’s risk exposure, and the Board and its committees providing oversight of those efforts.

The Company has implemented internal processes and controls to identify and manage risks and to communicate with the Board regarding risk management. These include an enterprise risk management program, regular internal management meetings that identify risks and discuss risk management, a Code of Business Conduct (the “Code”) (and related training), a strong ethics and compliance function, regular cybersecurity, data flow and data privacy assessments, such as evaluation of network security measures and data protection safeguards, an internal and external audit process, such as testing controls, and internal approval and signature authority processes and legal department review of contracts. In connection with these processes and controls, management regularly communicates with the Board, Board committees and individual directors regarding identified risks and the management of these risks. Individual directors often communicate directly with senior management on matters relating to risk management. In particular, the Board committee chairs regularly communicate with members of senior management, including the Chief Executive Officer, to discuss potential risks in connection with accounting and audit matters, compensation matters, compliance matters and financing-related matters.

The Board committees, which meet regularly and report to the full Board, play significant roles in carrying out the Board’s risk oversight function. In particular, the Audit Committee oversees related party transactions and risks related to the Company’s financial statements, the financial reporting process and accounting. The Audit Committee also oversees the internal audit function, which is provided through the Intercompany Services Agreement with Light & Wonder, and regularly meets with both the Vice President of Internal Audit of Light & Wonder (who reports functionally to the Audit Committee and administratively to the Chief Financial Officer of Light & Wonder) and representatives of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Compensation Committee or the Board, as applicable, evaluates risks associated with the Company’s compensation programs and senior executive succession planning and discusses with management procedures to identify and mitigate such risks. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees risks related to the composition and structure of the Board and succession planning for the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer and other senior management positions.

Board Meetings. The Board held a total of five meetings during 2021, all of which included executive sessions held with independent directors only. During 2021, all directors then serving on the Board attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and committees of the Board on which they served.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Board Committees. The Board has three standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. All committees are comprised solely of independent directors.

The Board has approved charters for each Board committee, which can be accessed through the Investors — Corporate Governance link on our website at www.sciplay.com. The current membership of each committee is as shown in the table below.

Audit Committee	Compensation Committee	Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
Gerald D. Cohen (Chair)	Nick Earl (Chair)	Michael Marchetti (Chair)
Michael Marchetti William C. Thompson, Jr.	Charles “CJ” Prober William C. Thompson, Jr.	April Henry Gerald D. Cohen

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is responsible for hiring the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and for overseeing the accounting, auditing and financial reporting processes of the Company. In the course of performing its functions, the Audit Committee reviews, with management and our independent registered public accounting firm, the Company’s internal accounting controls, the financial statements, the report and recommendations of our independent registered public accounting firm, the scope of the audit and the qualifications and independence of the auditor. The Audit Committee’s responsibilities also include oversight of the Company’s internal audit function and compliance with the Code by employees, officers, directors and other representatives of the Company. The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is independent under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market, the independence standards under the Exchange Act and the Company’s Director Independence Guidelines, and that each of Messrs. Cohen, Marchetti and Thompson qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K of the rules of the SEC. The Audit Committee held five meetings during 2021.

Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee sets the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and other senior executives of the Company, administers the equity incentive plans and executive compensation programs of the Company, determines eligibility for, and awards under, such plans and programs and makes recommendations to the Board with regard to the adoption of new employee benefit plans and equity incentive plans and with respect to the compensation program for non-employee directors. As a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NASDAQ rules, the Compensation Committee is not required to consist solely of independent directors. The Board has determined that the member of the Compensation Committee is independent under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market and the Company’s Director Independence Guidelines. The Compensation Committee held two meetings during 2021. Beginning in June 2021, following Mr. Penske’s departure from the Board, which left the Compensation Committee with a single member, and in light of Light & Wonder’s subsequent offer to acquire our public shares not already owned by Light & Wonder, the Board determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company for the Board to review and approve matters that would normally be delegated to the Compensation Committee.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying individuals who are qualified to become directors, recommending nominees for membership on the Board and on committees of the Board, reviewing and recommending corporate governance principles, procedures and practices and overseeing the annual self-assessments of the Board and its committees. The Board has determined that each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is independent under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market and the Company’s Director Independence Guidelines. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held four meetings during 2021.

Other than the minimum age requirement specified in the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have specific qualifications that must be met by a candidate for director and will consider individuals suggested as candidates by our stockholders in accordance with the provisions contained in our Amended and Restated Bylaws. Each notice of nomination submitted in this manner must contain the information specified in our Amended and Restated Bylaws, including, but not

TABLE OF CONTENTS

limited to, information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock held by the proposing stockholder and any voting or similar agreement the proposing stockholder has entered into with respect to our common stock. To be timely, the notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the prior year’s annual meeting of stockholders. If the annual meeting of stockholders is advanced by more than 30 days, or delayed by more than 60 days, from the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders, notice by the stockholder, to be timely, must be received no earlier than the 120th day prior to the annual meeting of stockholders and no later than the later of (i) the 90th day prior to the annual meeting of stockholders or (ii) the tenth day following the day on which we publicly announce the date of the annual meeting of stockholders if the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is less than 100 days prior to the date of such annual meeting.

Each notice of nomination should include the nominee’s qualifications and other relevant biographical information and provide confirmation of the nominee’s consent to serve as a director. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will review the candidate’s background, experience and abilities, and the contributions the candidate can be expected to make to the collective functioning of the Board and the needs of the Board at the time. Candidates have been identified through recommendations made by our directors, executive officers or third parties. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee anticipates that it would use these sources as well as stockholder recommendations to identify candidates in the future. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee from time to time engages one or more search firms to assist in identifying potential Board nominees, and we may pay such firms a fee for conducting such searches to identify and/or evaluate suitable candidates.

Stockholder Communications with Directors. Stockholders may communicate with the Board or an individual director by sending a letter to the Board or to a director’s attention care of the Secretary of the Company at SciPlay Corporation, 6601 Bermuda Road, Las Vegas, NV 89119. The Secretary will open, log and deliver all such correspondence (other than advertisements, solicitations or communications that contain offensive or abusive content) to directors on a periodic basis, generally in advance of each Board meeting.

Attendance at Stockholders’ Meetings. The Company encourages directors to attend the virtual annual stockholders’ meeting. Last year, four of the six directors then serving attended the annual meeting.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation. Each of the independent members of the Compensation Committee (i) has never been an officer or employee of the Company or (ii) was not a participant in a Related Person Transaction (as defined in “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions”) in 2021. None of the Company’s executive officers, other than Mr. Cottle, serves, or in 2021 served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more of its executive officers serving, or who in 2021 served, as a member of the Company’s Board or the Compensation Committee. Mr. Cottle serves, and in 2020 served, as an executive officer and member of the board of directors of both our Company and Light & Wonder.

Code of Business Conduct. The Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct, or the Code, that applies to all of our officers, directors and employees. The Code sets forth fundamental principles of integrity and business ethics and is intended to ensure ethical decision making in the conduct of professional responsibilities. Among the areas addressed by the Code are standards concerning conflicts of interest, confidential information and compliance with laws, regulations and policies. The full text of the Code can be accessed through the Investors — Corporate Governance link on our website at www.sciplay.com.

No Hedging and No Pledging Policies. The Board also approved a policy prohibiting directors, officers and employees from hedging or engaging in transactions or similar arrangements designed to protect against declines in the market price of our securities (including the securities of the Company’s affiliates) and, in February 2021, adopted a policy prohibiting employees, officers and directors from holding the Company’s securities in a margin account or pledging the Company’s securities as collateral for a loan. In particular, employees, officers and directors may not:

•

purchase or sell options (e.g., puts, calls and collars) relating to our securities;

•

purchase or sell other derivative securities designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of our securities;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

engage in short sales of the Company’s securities, including a “sale against the box”; or

•

have standing orders regarding the Company’s securities unless used only for a very brief period of time, except for purchases and sales under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan that is approved by the Chief Legal Officer of Light & Wonder;

•

hold the Company’s securities in a margin account; or

•

pledge the Company’s securities as collateral for a loan.

Other Policies

Stock Ownership Policy. Our stock ownership guidelines require covered individuals to own the lesser of (i) a number of shares of our Class A common stock equal to a specified multiple of annual base salary (or in the case of non-employee directors, annual cash retainer for Board service) divided by the preceding 200-day average closing price of such shares and (ii) a fixed number of shares of our Class A common stock, as shown in the table below. Shares of Class A common stock held directly or indirectly, including time-vesting restricted stock units (“RSUs”), will count for purposes of the policy, whereas outstanding (vested or unvested) stock options and performance-conditioned RSUs will not count. We expect covered individuals who do not meet the ownership requirements to retain at least 50% of the shares of our common stock that vest or are acquired upon exercise of stock options, net of applicable taxes, until the ownership requirements are met. Each covered individual has five years to comply from the date he or she became subject to the policy. All of our current directors and covered executives met the required ownership level as of December 31, 2021, other than Mr. Earl, who became subject to the policy on April 15, 2022 and will have until April 15, 2027 to satisfy the required level of ownership, Mses. Henry and James and Mr. Prober, each of who became subject to the policy on May 2, 2022 and will have until May 2, 2027 to satisfy the required level of ownership, and Mr. O’Quinn, who became subject to the policy on August 10, 2021 and will have until August 10, 2026 to satisfy the required level of ownership.

Position	Guideline OwnershipLevel
	Lesser of:
Executive Chairman* and Chief Executive Officer	Five times annual base salary	155,000 Shares
Chief Financial Officer	Two times annual base salary	40,000 Shares
Other Executive Officers reporting to the Chief Executive Officer	One times annual base salary	15,000 Shares
Non-Executive Officer members of the Board	Five times annual board retainer	10,000 Shares

Since the Executive Chairman does not receive a base salary from us, the 155,000 share requirement applies.

Clawback Policy. The Compensation Committee previously approved a clawback policy, under which the Compensation Committee or the Board, as applicable, may, in its discretion, take any one or more of the following actions in the event of a restatement of our financial statements that the Compensation Committee or the Board, as applicable, determines was due to an executive’s fraud or gross misconduct:

•

cancel the executive’s outstanding incentive compensation awards (defined as cash bonus and equity compensation under the Company’s incentive bonus plans or equity incentive plans, whether or not vested);

•

disqualify the executive from receiving future incentive compensation awards;

•

recoup incentive compensation paid or awarded to the executive from and after the date that is one year before the events giving rise to the restatement were discovered; and/or

•

recoup the executive’s gains from the sale of shares awarded as incentive compensation or the exercise of stock options from and after the date that is one year before the events giving rise to the restatement were discovered.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Board and, if applicable, the Compensation Committee, will review and consider updates to this policy from time to time. In addition, to the extent that the SEC adopts final rules for clawback policies that require changes to our policy, we will revise our policy accordingly.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The following describes the compensation paid to each of our directors in 2021, but excluding the compensation of Mr. Wilson, who also served as Chief Executive Officer of the Company during 2021 and whose compensation is disclosed in “Executive Compensation”.

Non-Employee Director Compensation. The compensation program for directors other than Messrs. Cottle and Wilson and Ms. James (“Eligible Directors”) consists of annual retainers and equity awards (the “Eligible Director compensation program”). In 2021, under the Eligible Director compensation program, Eligible Directors were entitled to receive:

(1)

an annual retainer for service on the Board of $36,000;

(2)

an annual retainer for the chairs of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of $25,000, $15,000 and $10,000, respectively; and

(3)

an annual grant of RSUs with a grant date value of $144,000 and a 1-year vesting schedule.

New Eligible Directors generally receive an annual grant of RSUs as described above upon joining the Board.

The elements of the Eligible Director compensation program are evaluated and determined by the Compensation Committee or the Board, as applicable, which takes into account competitive director compensation data provided by its independent compensation consultant, Compensation Advisory Partners LLC, or CAP, for companies in related industries as well as a general industry group of comparably sized companies. The Compensation Committee or the Board, as applicable, uses the comparative data provided by CAP as a general indicator of relevant market conditions, but does not set specific benchmark targets for total director compensation or for individual elements of the Eligible Director compensation program.

Awards of RSUs are generally subject to forfeiture if an Eligible Director leaves the Board prior to the scheduled vesting date for any reason, except that the vesting of such awards would accelerate in full upon an Eligible Director ceasing to serve on the Board due to death or disability.

For all Eligible Directors, the number of RSUs awarded in 2021 was determined by dividing the grant date value of $144,000 by the average of the high and low sales prices of our Class A common stock on the trading day immediately prior to the grant date and rounding down to the nearest whole number. As a result, 8,076 RSUs were awarded to each Eligible Director in 2021.

Eligible Directors with unexcused absences exceeding 25% of the meetings held by the Board and committees on which they served in the prior year are not eligible to receive an annual award of RSUs except that Eligible Directors with less than six months of service in the prior year are not subject to such threshold with respect to the first grant made after becoming a director. All Eligible Directors serving at the time of grant (June 9, 2021) satisfied the attendance requirements applicable for the 2021 annual awards.

In addition, Eligible Directors who were members of the special committee (the “Special Committee”) created for purposes of evaluating Light & Wonder’s offer to acquire our public shares not already owned by Light & Wonder, which offer was withdrawn on December 22, 2021, were eligible to receive a one-time cash retainer of up to $50,000 and a monthly retainer of $10,000 for their services on the Special Committee.

Mr. Cottle did not receive any compensation in respect of his services as a director or executive officer of the Company in 2021, having received a grant of performance-conditioned restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) in 2019, which were intended to compensate him for his services as Executive Chairman. These PRSUs were vested and settled in early 2021, based on actual performance for the years 2019-2020.

For additional information, see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

NARRATIVE DISCLOSURE TO SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE

The following describes material features of the compensation disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table.

Annual Performance Bonus — Short-Term Incentive Program (“STIP”)

The Committee approved the STIP for fiscal year 2021 in order to incentivize our employees to accomplish short-term strategic objectives that the Board believes will create long-term value for the Company. The participants under the STIP, including Messrs. Wilson, O’Quinn and Cody, were each eligible to receive (1) an annual cash award and (2) a grant of PRSUs. For both the cash and PRSU components of the program, payouts were determined based on the financial performance of our business for the 2021 fiscal year compared to predetermined goals, one-half based on revenue and one-half based on AEBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, with reconciliation provided in Appendix A. If performance is below the threshold criteria, both the cash award and PRSUs would be forfeited. If performance was between the threshold criteria and the target criteria for, then all or a portion of the cash award would be paid based on linear interpolation and the PRSUs would be forfeited. If performance exceeded the target criteria, then the cash award would be paid in full and all or a portion of the PRSUs would vest based on linear interpolation, with full vesting occurring if the maximum criteria were achieved.

The target cash awards granted to Messrs. Wilson, O’Quinn and Cody for fiscal year 2021 were, respectively, 100%, 35% and 50% of annual base salary, or $500,000, $79,100 and $158,749, and the target value of the PRSUs granted in 2021 to Messrs. Wilson, O’Quinn and Cody that vest based on fiscal year 2021 performance (the “2021 STIP PRSUs”) were, based on the price of our Class A common stock on January 4, 2021, $500,138, $79,087 and $158,790, respectively. The STIP goals and results for the 2021 fiscal year are shown in the table below.

	2021 STIP Annual Performance Bonus Achievement*
Metric	Weighting		Threshold Performance Level(1)			Target Performance Level(2)			Maximum Performance Level(3)			Actual Performance

AEBITDA(4)		50%		$	155.9		$	194.9		$	253.4		$	185.9

All dollar values in millions.

(1)

Below threshold performance results in forfeiture of the STIP cash award and PRSUs.

(2)

Target performance results in full payout of the STIP cash award and forfeiture of the STIP PRSUs.

(3)

Maximum performance results in full payout of the STIP cash award and full vesting of the STIP PRSUs.

(4)

AEBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, with reconciliation provided in Appendix A.

Based on actual performance, a 73.7% payout level was achieved, resulting in a 73.7% payout of the 2021 STIP cash award for Messrs. Wilson and O’Quinn, or $368,500 and $58,297, respectively, and forfeiture of the 2021 STIP PRSUs. The 2021 STIP cash payouts for Messrs. Wilson and O’Quinn are included in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table. Mr. Cody forfeited his STIP award, both the cash and PRSU components, as a result of his resignation.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

Cody Long-Term Incentive Awards

In 2017, Mr. Cody was granted a cash-based long-term incentive award in lieu of an equity-based award, vesting over a four-year period contingent on Mr. Cody’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. The balance of his award vested during the 2021 fiscal year, the value of which ($21,578) is included in the “Bonus” column of the Summary Compensation Table.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Senior Executive Incentive Program (“SEIP”)

Our Board has also approved the SEIP, a long-term incentive program to incentivize our senior executives to work to organically grow the revenue and AEBITDA of our business through the 2022 fiscal year. Each of Messrs. Wilson and Cody received a grant of PRSUs under the SEIP, with 60% of the target amount vesting based on achievement of revenue and AEBITDA metrics with respect to fiscal year 2020 (the “2020 SEIP PRSUs”) and the remaining 40% vesting based on achievement of revenue and AEBITDA metrics with respect to fiscal year 2022 (the “2022 SEIP PRSUs”). The 2020 SEIP PRSUs previously vested at 62.4% of target, based on actual performance, resulting in Messrs. Wilson and Cody vesting in 227,272 and 42,719 PRSUs, respectively. In early 2022, in connection with a modification to the 2022 SEIP PRSUs held by non-executives, Mr. Wilson and the Board agreed that Mr. Wilson would forfeit his 2022 SEIP PRSUs. Mr. Cody forfeited his 2022 SEIP PRSUs upon his resignation from the Company. Mr. O’Quinn is not a participant in the SEIP.

Annual Equity Awards

In 2021, each of Messrs. Wilson and O’Quinn received annual long-term equity awards, which link a significant proportion of their compensation to the long-term performance of the Company, align their interests with stockholders and encourage long-term service. Under the current equity award opportunity guidelines, an eligible executive has a target annual equity award opportunity equal to a designated percentage of his base salary (with the actual award determined on or prior to the grant date, in the discretion of the Committee). Messrs. Wilson and O’Quinn’s target annual equity award opportunities for 2021 are shown in the table below.

Executive	Target Equity Award Opportunity for 2021 (% of Salary)
Mr. Wilson		125%
Mr. O’Quinn		40%

In 2021, the Committee awarded Messrs. Wilson and O’Quinn one-half of their annual equity awards in the form of RSUs and one-half in the form of PRSUs. The vesting of the PRSUs is conditioned on the Company’s achievement of trailing 12-month revenue growth of 5% or more compared to actual revenue for the four fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2021 (the “2021 Revenue Goal”) on or before the end of fiscal year 2024. Upon satisfaction of the performance condition prior to September 21, 2022, the PRSUs convert to time-vesting RSUs that vest one-third per year on each of September 20, 2022 and the first two anniversaries of September 20, 2022. If the 2021 Revenue Goal is achieved after September 21, 2022, any PRSUs for which the time-vesting date has elapsed will immediately vest, and the remainder will vest on the time-vesting schedule. The 2021 Revenue Goal has not yet been achieved. The time-vesting RSUs are scheduled to vest in equal annual installments over a period of three years starting September 20, 2022.

Other Actions with Respect to Equity Awards

In recognition of the Company’s performance above plan, and significant contributions made during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as to provide an additional retention incentive, the Committee awarded each of Messrs. Wilson and Cody an additional RSU award with a two-year vesting schedule, as set forth below:

Mr. Cody’s award was forfeited as a result of his resignation from the Company.

In 2020, Messrs. Wilson and Cody were granted annual PRSU awards subject to a performance condition of achieving 12-month revenue growth of 5% or more compared to actual revenue for the four fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2020 (the “2020 Revenue Goal”). In July 2021, the Committee determined that the 2020 Revenue Goal had been achieved, and therefore the PRSUs converted to time-vesting RSUs, with 25% vesting per year. Mr. Wilson’s first installment therefore vested on September 21, 2021, while Mr. Cody’s awards were forfeited in connection with his resignation from the Company. Mr. Wilson’s remaining RSUs are scheduled to vest in annual installments on the first three anniversaries of September 21, 2021.

Employment Agreements

Mr. Wilson’s employment agreement with the Company provides that he will be employed for a three-year term from May 7, 2019, subject to automatic extension for an additional year at the end of the term and each anniversary thereof unless timely notice of non-renewal is given by either the Company or Mr. Wilson. In addition to his participation in the STIP, the employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of $500,000, an annual performance bonus (which for 2021 was granted in the form of awards under the STIP) and eligibility for annual equity awards. Mr. Wilson’s employment agreement also contains covenants restricting him from, among other things, competing with the Company or its affiliates or soliciting the Company’s or its affiliates’ employees or customers. Mr. O’Quinn is not subject to an employment agreement with the Company or any of our affiliates, and instead his terms and conditions of employment with the Company are set forth in an offer letter, which provides that Mr. O’Quinn will receive an annual base salary of at least $170,000 ($226,000 in 2021) and an annual target bonus of at least 20% of base salary (35% in 2021). In early 2022, in recognition of his increased responsibilities as Interim Chief Financial Officer, the Company increased Mr. O’Quinn’s annual base salary, effective as of February 2, 2022, to $250,000, and annual target bonus to 50% of base salary.

These PRSUs were granted as part of the SEIP and were initially scheduled to cliff vest in 2023 contingent on the achievement of certain levels of revenue and STIP AEBITDA improvement over a five-year period (2018-2022). As described above in “Senior Executive Incentive Program (SEIP)”, these PRSUs were canceled in early 2022 for no consideration.

These RSUs are part of a grant that was awarded as PRSUs with a four-year vesting schedule subject to the achievement of revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 10% or more compared to revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2019 (the “Revenue/AEBITDA Goal”). The Revenue/AEBITDA Goal was achieved, resulting in the vesting of 25% of the PRSUs and conversion of the remaining PRSUs to RSUs. The second installment vested on September 20, 2021 in accordance with the time-vesting schedule. The RSUs shown in the table are scheduled to vest in two annual installments, beginning on September 20, 2022.

RETIREMENT PLANS

Messrs. Wilson and O’Quinn, and during the portion of 2021 he was an employee of the Company, Mr. Cody, were eligible to participate in SciPlay’s 401(k) retirement plan during 2021 under the same rules that apply to other employees. For the 2021 fiscal year, the Company made a matching contribution of 100% of the first 1% of contributions and 50% of the next 5% of contributions for a total match of 3.5% on the first 6% of contributions.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL

For the named executive officers in 2021, the information below describes certain compensation that would become payable pursuant to the terms of their employment agreements and their equity award agreements under the various termination events described below. In each case, the applicable agreements were the result of arm’s length negotiations and were approved by the Committee and/or the Board.

Mr. Wilson

Mr. Wilson’s employment agreement provides that if his employment was terminated by the Company without “cause” or by him for “good reason” (as such terms are defined in his employment agreement), he would be entitled to receive, subject to his execution of a release of claims: (i) a pro-rated annual performance bonus; (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (1) two times his base salary and (2) the highest annual cash performance bonus paid to him in respect of the two most recent fiscal years (but not more than his then-current annual base salary), with the entire amount in this clause (ii) payable over 24 months; (iii) a pro-rated payment of his SEIP PRSUs, if applicable, based on actual performance; and (iv) payment of COBRA premiums for up to 12 months. If Mr. Wilson’s employment instead terminated upon the expiration of the term, he would be entitled to receive, subject to his execution of a release of claims, (a) a pro-rated annual performance bonus, (b) an amount equal to his base salary, payable over 12 months, (c) a pro-rated payment of his SEIP PRSUs, if applicable, based on actual performance, and (d) payment of COBRA

TABLE OF CONTENTS

premiums for up to 12 months. Upon a “change in control” of Light & Wonder (as defined in the Scientific Games Corporation 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan) or of the Company, the applicable equity awards held by Mr. Wilson would fully vest, with PRSUs vesting at the level determined by the Committee.

In the event of the death of Mr. Wilson, his beneficiary or estate would have been entitled to receive any benefits that would have been payable under any life insurance benefit of his for which the Company pays premiums as well as full vesting of his equity awards. In the event of his termination due to his “total disability” (as such term is defined in his employment agreement), Mr. Wilson would have been entitled to receive disability payments pursuant to a disability plan sponsored or maintained by the Company as well as full vesting of his equity awards.

Mr. O’Quinn

Mr. O’Quinn’s offer letter does not provide for severance payments or benefits upon a termination of his employment. Mr. O’Quinn’s equity awards would fully vest upon his death, disability (as determined under Light & Wonder’s long-term disability plans) or a “change in control” of the Company, with PRSUs vesting at the level determined by the Committee.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

The Company has written policies and procedures relating to related person transactions. The Audit Committee with assistance from Light & Wonder’s and the Company’s legal department is responsible for reviewing and approving related person transactions that are subject to SEC disclosure requirements under Item 404 of Regulation S-K (each a “Related Party Transaction”), including transactions in which the Company is a participant, the amount exceeds $120,000 and a related person has a direct or indirect material interest. A related person includes a director, executive officer, nominee for election as a director, person holding more than 5% of our stock and any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, or any entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed or is a partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has a 5% or greater beneficial ownership interest. The Company’s policy is not to enter into a Related Party Transaction unless the Audit Committee approves the transaction as specified in the Audit Committee’s charter. Other transactions with related persons as well as certain material changes in previously approved relationships may also require legal department or compliance department approval under our policies and procedures.

Mr. O’Quinn, our Interim Chief Financial Officer, effective as of August 10, 2021, and Secretary, effective as of November 30, 2021, received the following compensation and benefits in his prior positions at the Company since the beginning of 2020: (a) aggregate base salary payments of $203,231 and $126,539 in respect of 2020 and 2021, respectively; (b) an annual performance bonus award under the STIP in respect of 2019, with a payout in cash of $15,264 in early 2020; (c) an annual performance bonus award under the STIP in respect of 2020, with a payout in cash of $61,200 and shares of the Company’s Class A common stock with a fair market value of $59,161 in early 2021; (d) an annual grant of equity awards in 2020 with a fair market value of $60,520; (e) a grant of equity awards under the 2021 STIP with a fair market value (based on achievement of maximum performance) of $79,087; and (f) other grants of equity awards in 2020 and 2021 with aggregate fair market values of $22,203 and $1,173, respectively. Other than such compensation arrangements, Mr. O’Quinn has no interest in any transactions that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Relationships with Light & Wonder

In connection with the IPO in 2019, the Company entered into a number of agreements with Light & Wonder in order to provide a continuing framework for our relationship with Light & Wonder following the IPO, as set forth below:

Intercompany Services Agreement

Pursuant to an Intercompany Services Agreement with Light & Wonder, Light & Wonder provides certain services to us, and costs associated with these functions are charged to us and settled in cash. Charges include costs related to corporate level general and administrative expenses, including but not limited to, finance, corporate development, human resources, legal (which could include liability related to litigation awards related to our company), information technology and rental fees for shared assets. These expenses are charged on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder charged on the basis of revenues, operating expenses, headcount or other relevant measures. Expenses paid to Light & Wonder for services provided in 2021 were $5.8 million.

IP License Agreement

We obtained an exclusive (subject to certain limited exceptions), perpetual, non-royalty-bearing license from a subsidiary of Light & Wonder (“SG Gaming”) for intellectual property created or acquired by SG Gaming or its affiliates on or before the third anniversary of the date of the IP License Agreement in any of our currently available or future social games that are developed for mobile platforms, social media platforms, internet platforms or other interactive platforms and distributed solely via digital delivery, and a non-exclusive, perpetual, non-royalty-bearing license for intellectual property created or acquired by SG Gaming or its affiliates after such third anniversary, for use in our currently available games. So long as the IP License Agreement remains in effect, we do not expect to pay any future royalties or fees for our use of intellectual property owned by SG Gaming or its affiliates in our currently available games. The purchase price of the license was $255.0 million, which was determined based on the appropriate valuation methodology performed

TABLE OF CONTENTS

by a third-party valuation specialist. In accordance with the IP License Agreement, we did not incur any additional royalty expense related to Light & Wonder IP after the effective date of the IP License Agreement. SG Gaming frequently licenses intellectual property from third parties, which we use in developing our games pursuant to the IP License Agreement. Royalties allocated for use of third-party intellectual property are charged to us and are typically based upon net social gaming revenues and the royalty rates defined and stipulated in the third-party agreements. For 2021, these third-party intellectual property royalties were $2.6 million. We are in the process of negotiating terms with Light & Wonder for an extension of the agreement to ensure continuity of SciPlay’s rights thereunder.

Tax Receivable Agreement

In 2019, we entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) with certain affiliates of Light & Wonder. The annual tax benefits under the TRA are computed by comparing the income taxes due including such tax benefits and the income taxes due without such benefits. The amount of aggregate payments due under the TRA may vary based on a number of factors, including the amount and timing of the taxable income generated each year and applicable tax rates, with payments generally due within a specified period of time following the filing of our tax return for the taxable year with respect to which the payment obligation arises. The TRA will remain in effect until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless we exercise our right to terminate the TRA. The TRA will also terminate if we breach our obligations under the TRA or upon certain change of control events specified in the agreement. If the TRA is terminated in accordance with its terms, our payment obligations would be accelerated based upon certain assumptions, including the assumption that we would have sufficient future taxable income to utilize such tax benefits. Our estimated liability under the TRA as of December 31, 2021 was $68.8 million. During the year ended December 31, 2021, payments totaling $3.8 million were made to Light & Wonder and distributions of $30.0 million from SciPlay Parent LLC were paid pursuant to the TRA.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board that is available on the Company’s website at www.sciplay.com.

The Audit Committee oversees the accounting, auditing and financial reporting processes of the Company. As part of its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 with management and Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company. The Committee also discussed and reviewed with Deloitte & Touche LLP all communications required under generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”), including the matters required to be discussed by Deloitte & Touche LLP with the Audit Committee under PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, and SEC Rule 2-07 of Regulation S-X.

In addition, Deloitte & Touche LLP provided to the Audit Committee a formal written statement describing all relationships between Deloitte & Touche LLP and its affiliates and the Company and its affiliates as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC that might bear on Deloitte & Touche LLP’s independence as required by PCAOB Ethics and Independence Rule 3526, Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence. The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP any matters that could have impacted Deloitte & Touche LLP’s objectivity and independence from the Company and management, including the provision of non-audit services to the Company. Nothing came to the Audit Committee’s attention as a result of its review of Deloitte & Touche LLP’s statement or its discussions with Deloitte & Touche LLP that would indicate that Deloitte & Touche LLP lacked such objectivity or independence. Based on these reviews and discussions and in reliance thereon, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements for the Company be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for filing with the SEC.

PROPOSAL 2

RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP
AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm (“independent auditor”) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, and stockholders are being asked to ratify such appointment at the annual meeting.

Representatives of Deloitte & Touche LLP are expected to be present at the meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Approval of the proposal to ratify the appointment of the independent auditor requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote represented at the meeting. If the appointment is not ratified by stockholders, the Audit Committee will reconsider such appointment and may choose in its sole discretion to confirm the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP or to engage a different firm to serve as the Company’s independent auditor.

Fees Paid to our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Aggregate fees billed to us for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 by our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, and their respective affiliates were approximately:

	2021 Fees ($ in millions)			2020 Fees ($ in millions)
Audit Fees:		$	0.75		$	0.75
Audit-Related Fees:		$	0.33		$	0.02
Tax Fees:		$	0.32		$	0.37
All Other Fees:		$	—		$	—

The Audit Fees listed above were billed in connection with the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and the reviews of our interim consolidated financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Audit-Related Fees listed above were billed for a consent in connection with a Form S-8 and for 2021 also for advisory services associated with merger and acquisitions. The Tax Fees listed above for 2021 and 2020 were billed for tax compliance and advice. All of the fees set forth in the table above were pre-approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with the procedures described below.

Pre-Approval Policy for Services Performed by our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

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

The Audit Committee has adopted an auditor pre-approval policy that 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 Audit 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 services — that the independent auditor 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.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2022

OTHER MATTERS

We are not aware of any matter other than those described in this Proxy Statement that will be acted upon at the annual meeting. In the event that any other matter properly comes before the meeting for a vote of stockholders, the persons named as proxies in the enclosed form of proxy will vote in accordance with their best judgment on such other matter.

PROXY SOLICITATION COSTS

We are soliciting proxies to which this Proxy Statement relates primarily by mail, but, in addition, the officers and employees of the Company and its parent may solicit proxies in person, by telephone or electronically on behalf of the Company. Appendix B sets forth information relating to certain of the Company’s and its parent’s directors, officers and employees who are considered “participants” in the Company’s solicitation under the rules of the SEC by reason of their position as directors of the Company or because they may be soliciting proxies on the Company’s behalf. We will pay all costs of proxy solicitation on behalf of the Company. The Company’s and its parent’s officers and employees engaged in the solicitation of proxies will not receive any additional compensation for their solicitation activities and we will not incur additional costs in connection with the solicitation of proxies in excess of those normally incurred for an annual meeting as a result of the potential proxy contest. We may reimburse brokers, banks, or other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners but are not otherwise engaging any other persons to assist in the solicitation of proxies.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR THE NEXT ANNUAL MEETING

Proxy Statement Proposals

Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, if a person wants to submit a proposal for inclusion in our proxy materials for the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, it must be received at our principal executive offices, 6601 Bermuda Road, Las Vegas, Nevada 89119, Attention: Secretary, not less than 120 days before the anniversary of the date this Proxy Statement is released to stockholders, unless the date of the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders is more than 30 days before or after [•], 2023, in which case the proposal must be received a reasonable time before we begin to print and mail our proxy materials. Since this Proxy Statement will be first mailed and be made available to our stockholders on [•], 2022, the proposal must be received not later than [•]. In order to avoid controversy, stockholders should submit proposals by means, including electronic means, which permit them to prove the date of delivery.

Other Proposals and Nominations

For any proposal or director nomination that is not submitted for inclusion in next year’s Proxy Statement pursuant to the process set forth above, but is instead sought to be presented directly at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, stockholders are advised to review our Amended and Restated Bylaws as they contain requirements with respect to advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. To be timely, the notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the prior year’s annual meeting of stockholders. Accordingly, any such stockholder proposal or director nomination must be received between February 8, 2023 and the close of business on March 10, 2023 for the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders. In the event that the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders is convened more than 30 days prior to or delayed by more than 60 days after June 8, 2023, notice by the stockholder, to be timely, must be received no earlier than the 120th day prior to the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and no later than the later of (i) the 90th day prior to the 2023 annual meeting

of stockholders and (ii) the tenth day following the day on which we publicly announce the date of the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders if the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is less than 100 days prior to the date of such annual meeting.

All proposals should be sent to our principal executive offices at 6601 Bermuda Road, Las Vegas, Nevada 89119, Attention: Secretary.

These advance notice provisions are in addition to, and separate from, the requirements that a stockholder must meet in order to have a proposal included in the Proxy Statement under the rules of the SEC.

A proxy granted by a stockholder will give discretionary authority to the proxies to vote on any matters introduced pursuant to the above advance notice bylaw provisions, subject to applicable rules of the SEC.

Copies of our Amended and Restated Bylaws can be accessed through the Investors — Corporate Governance — Bylaws link on our website at www.sciplay.com, or are available by request to the Secretary at the address set forth above.

Your cooperation in giving this matter your immediate attention and in returning your proxy promptly will be appreciated.
