EXPLANATORY NOTE

Multimedia Games, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement to deregister certain securities originally registered by the Registrant pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 14, 2009 (File No. 333-159242) (the “Prior Registration Statement”), with respect to shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), thereby registered for offer or sale pursuant to the Registrant’s 2008 Employment Inducement Award Plan (the “Prior Plan”).

The Prior Plan was frozen on March 23, 2010.  The Registrant adopted a new equity incentive plan, the Multimedia Games, Inc. Consolidated Equity Incentive Plan (the “Consolidated Plan”), which replaced the Prior Plan as of March 23, 2010, the date the Registrant’s shareholders approved the Consolidated Plan.  Subsequent to its expiration on March 23, 2010, no awards were made under the Prior Plan, and no future awards will be made under the Prior Plan.  As of May 17, 2010, 1,126,236 shares of Common Stock originally registered under the Prior Registration Statement (the “Carryover Shares”) remained available for offer and sale under the Prior Registration Statement.  In accordance with the undertaking contained in the Prior Registration Statement pursuant to Item 512 of Regulation S-K, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Prior Registration Statement is being filed to deregister and remove the previously registered shares of Common Stock that remain unissued and unsold under the Prior Registration Statement, i.e., the Carryover Shares, as of the date hereof.  Furthermore, as of May 17, 2010, 1,373,764 shares of Common Stock remained subject to outstanding awards previously granted under the Prior Plan (the “Prior Awards”).  The Prior Registration Statement will remain in effect to cover the potential exercise of the Prior Awards.

Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement, the Registrant is filing a Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register 2,266,288 of the Carryover Shares, which are now available for offer or sale pursuant to the Consolidated Plan.
