with the Company, the Company and the Executive hereby mutually agree that,
effective immediately following the payment made to the Executive pursuant to
Section 5(c) in March 2006, the Employment Agreement is amended as follows:
 
1. By deleting in its entirety the existing content of Section 5(c) and
replacing therefor the term “[Reserved.]”
 
2. By adding the following language immediately before the period at the end of
the first sentence of Section 17(s)(iii):
 
“; provided, however, that the amendment to this Agreement to delete the $40,000
benefit in Section 5(c) shall not be deemed to constitute ‘Good Reason’.”
 
Except as specifically amended hereby, the Employment Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect as prior to this Amendment.
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Executive have each executed and
delivered this Amendment as of the date first shown above.
