Exhibit 10(30)
SECOND AMENDMENT TO
2001 RESTATEMENT OF THE
HARRAH'S ENTERTAINMENT, INC.
EXECUTIVE SUPPLEMENTAL SAVINGS PLAN
WHEREAS, Harrah's Entertainment, Inc. (the "Company")
maintains the 2001 Restatement of the Harrah's Entertainment, Inc. Executive
Supplemental Savings Plan (the "Plan") in order to provide its key executives
with an opportunity and incentive to save for retirement and other purposes; and
WHEREAS, it is desirable to amend the Plan to provide (i) that
participants may elect to defer up to 25% of their salary during any deferral
period, (ii) that any before-tax deferrals by a participant into the Company's
Savings and Retirement Plan (up to 6% of the participant's salary) which cannot
be deferred under that plan on a before-tax basis as a result of any law or
regulation will be automatically deferred under the Plan and that such deferrals
shall not be subject to the 25% limit on deferrals of salary, (iii) that
participants who at the request of the Company transfer their employment to JCC
Holding Company or one of its subsidiaries will continue to be participants in
the Plan for purposes of continued vesting, timing of distributions and
eligibility for certain Company enhancement contributions and (iv) that the
Trust Fund will be fully funded immediately before any Change of Control; and
WHEREAS, Section 12.1(a) of the Plan provides that the Company
has the right to amend the Plan; and
WHEREAS, Section 9.9 of the Plan provides that any action to
be taken by the Company shall be taken by its Board of Directors or the
appropriate committee of its Board of Directors; and
WHEREAS, the Human Resources Committee of the Company's Board
of Directors has approved the adoption of this Second Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Plan is hereby
amended, effective January 1, 2002, except as otherwise provided below, as
follows:
1. By substituting the following for the first sentence of
Section 3.5 of the Plan:
"If a former Employee is rehired by an Employer and is
eligible to participate in the Plan, he shall reenter the
<Page>
Plan on the same basis as a newly eligible Employee in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3.1 (SELECTION OF PARTICIPANTS)."
2. By substituting for Sections 4.1(a) and (b) of the Plan as
follows:
"(a) SALARY DEFERRAL CONTRIBUTIONS. A Participant may elect
to defer a maximum of 25% of the Salary otherwise payable to him during the
Deferral Period, or such other maximum amount as may be prescribed by the EDCP
Committee as the Salary Deferral Contribution limit for all Participants or
pursuant to subsection (c); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Savings and Retirement Plan
Rollover Deferrals pursuant to subsection (d) below shall be in addition to any
Salary Deferral Contributions permitted under this subsection (a)."
3. By inserting new Section 4.1(d) to the Plan as follows:
"(d) SAVINGS AND RETIREMENT PLAN ROLLOVER DEFERRALS. In
addition to the deferrals permitted under subsection (a) above, any Participant
that participates at the maximum before-tax percentage contributions under the
Savings and Retirement Plan shall be deemed to have elected to defer into this
Plan as a Savings and Retirement Plan Rollover Deferral that portion of eligible
Savings and Retirement Plan earnings which the Participant elected to defer
under such Savings and Retirement Plan which could not be deferred on a
before-tax basis under any such plan due to any law or regulation, but excluding
any amount which was actually deferred into the Savings and Retirement Plan but
distributed back to the Participant in a following plan year."
4. By substituting for Section 4.2 of the Plan as follows:
"4.2 MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS.
(a) Each Employer shall make a Matching Contribution
on behalf of each of its Participants who has elected to make Salary Deferral
Contributions or has had any Savings and Retirement Plan Rollover Deferrals
pursuant to Section 4.1(d) during the Deferral Period under Section 4.1
(PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS) and is eligible to receive a matching contribution
under the Savings and Retirement Plan. No Matching Contributions shall be made
with respect to Bonus Deferral Contributions. The Matching Contribution shall be
credited to each eligible Participant's Matching Contribution
2

Account as of the year-end Valuation Date or date of termination.
(b) The Matching Contribution for each eligible
Participant shall equal the difference between
(1) the sum of
(A) 100% of the Participant's
contributions to the Savings and Retirement Plan for its
plan year coinciding with the Deferral Period, plus
(B) 100% of the Participant's Salary
Deferral Contributions and Savings and Retirement Plan
Rollover Deferrals in the Deferral Period,
up to the Matching Limit as applied to the Participant's Salary, less
(2) the Employer's matching contribution for such
Participant under the Savings and Retirement Plan."
5. By substituting for Section 13.5 of the Plan as follows:
"13.5 FUNDING UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL. Immediately before
the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall determine whether, for
any reason, the assets of the Trust Fund are less than the aggregate Account
balances of all Participants (determined without regard to the vested interest
of each Participant) and transfer an amount equal to the deficiency to the
Trustee of the Trust. If it is discovered at any time that the amount initially
transferred is less than the total amount called for by the preceding sentence,
the shortfall, including any accrued interest on the shortfall, shall be
transferred to the Trustee immediately upon the discovery of such error."
6. Effective as of January 1, 2001, by adding the attached
Appendix I to the Plan.
