Director Notifications – Exercise of Vested Options (Form 8-K)

Director Notifications - Exercise of Vested Options

Sydney, 18 August 2026

Light & Wonder, Inc. ('Light & Wonder' or 'the Company') advises that Jamie Odell (Chairman) and Toni Korsanos (Vice Chair) have each notified the Company that they intend to exercise a portion of their vested options on a cashless basis pursuant to Company's 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan (the 'Equity Plan').

As previously disclosed, these vested options have an expiry date of 28 March 2027 and therefore limited trading windows remain available pursuant to the Company's Securities Trading Policy prior to expiry.

Cashless Exercise Mechanism

Under the terms of the Equity Plan, holders of vested options may elect to exercise options on a cashless basis. This mechanism enables holders to exercise vested options and receive CDIs equal to the value of the positive difference between the exercise price and the CDI price at exercise.

As the CDIs required to satisfy the exercise will be transferred from existing quoted CDIs held in the Light & Wonder Employee Share Trust, no further dilution will result.

Sale of a portion of CDIs to Cover Tax Liability

Both Jamie Odell and Toni Korsanos are required to recognise assessable income as a result of the exercise of the vested options. To fund the income tax liability, a portion of the net CDIs received by each of Jamie Odell and Toni Korsanos (not exceeding the value of the tax liability) will be sold in accordance with the terms of the Company's Securities Trading Policy.

Two Appendix 3Y - Change of Director's Interest Notices (one for each Director) will be lodged following completion of the exercise process.

Authorised for lodgement by the Company Secretary
