1 Exhibit 10.6 GTECH CORPORATION Executive Perquisite Program Benefit costs as a percent of payroll are significantly reduced at higher salary levels. This reflects caps on such benefits as Social Security, long-term disability, 401(k) programs, etc., and the flat costs of such coverage as medical and dental insurance. In an effort to provide equal levels of benefits to executives, despite these caps, GTECH is instituting the following Executive Perquisite Program (E.P.P.). This program is available to all officers of the Corporation (Vice President and above). The E.P.P. will provide each covered executive with a pre-established dollar amount with which he/she may select perquisites that best suit his/her needs in this area. This program will be administered by the Director Human Resources Administration to ensure proper handling and financial reporting. Monies spent through the E.P.P. will be added to the executives' W-2 at year end and that amount will be grossed-up to alleviate any tax liability on the part of the executive. Therefore, it is imperative that all reporting be extremely accurate. The maximum amount available to an executive per calendar year will be $27,500. Normally, if an executive becomes eligible for participation in the E.P.P. during the plan year, the $27,500 maximum will be pro-rated for the number of months of participation. The Chairman of the Board, the Vice Chairman or the Chief Operating Officer may elect to waive the pro-rata. share during the first year of eligibility. The available E.P.P. funds may be spent on any combination of perquisites as deemed appropriate by the executive. Also, the executive may wish to spend the entire amount available on one particular item. Any funds not spent by the end of the calendar year will be forfeited. The Board of Director may elect to adjust the maximum amount available per calendar year and add to the selection list of perquisites. 2 Exhibit 10.6 PERK ACCOUNT PROCEDURE In order to be reimbursed for perquisite expenses, the executive must submit proof of payment (copy of a canceled check, credit card receipt, etc.) with the request for reimbursement. If the executive prefers to have the vendor paid directly, the invoice should be forwarded with the request to Human Resources. The perquisite accounts will be monitored by Human Resources. All monies spent through this program will be added to the executive's W-2 at year end and the amount will be grossed-up to alleviate any personal tax liability. The following is a list of perquisites choices for this calendar year. Available funds may be spent on one item or on a combination of items.
