under Section 4(a) of the Employment Agreement shall remain at its current level
of $500,000.

 

Effective as of the date of this letter all references to “December 31, 2013” in
the Employment Agreement shall be replaced with a reference to “December 31,
2024”.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 4(d) of the Employment Agreement
to the contrary, you shall be entitled to cash out any vacation time that you
are not using at any time provided that no more than 5 vacation days may be

year provided that no more than 20 vacation days may be cashed out with respect
to any calendar year. Notwithstanding anything contained in this amendment or in
the Employment Agreement, unused vacation time as of the end of any calendar
year shall automatically be cashed out as of the first payroll in the subsequent
