Item 8.01. Other Events.
On September 13, 2010, Scientific Games Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release regarding a determination by the Illinois Gaming Board (“IGB”) to rebid the contract for the design, implementation and administration of the Video Gaming Central Control System in Illinois that was previously awarded to the Company. The IGB’s determination to rebid the contract was based on miscalculations made in evaluating the price portion of the contract proposals due, in part, to the fact that the bid instructions resulted in both the IGB and applicants making assumptions that were not uniform. The Company intends to participate in the rebid process.
A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
