The disclosure contained in Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 8.01                      Other Events

On July 8, 2010, the Board of Directors of GameTech International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") approved a reduction in the annual base salary payable to Richard T. Fedor, Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors, from $249,000 to $24,000 per year, which shall become effective July 16, 2010.  Mr. Fedor will continue to receive reimbursement for out-of-pocket medical expenses in the amount of $1,000 per month.

Additionally, the Board of Directors has elected to change the form of compensation payable to non-employee directors so that all director compensation for service and board and committee meetings attended is now payable in stock options in lieu of cash.  All such options shall have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ Global Market on the date each quarterly director compensation payment is due or board or committee meeting is held, will be fully vested on the date of grant, and expire ten years from the date of grant.

Both the reduction in the Executive Chairman’s annual base salary and the change in the form of non-employee director compensation were unanimously recommended to the Board of Directors by the Compensation Committee as the Company seeks to conserve existing cash and reduce expenses.
