 WHEREAS, Holdings and Executive are currently parties to that certain Employment

 NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows, effective as of the

Agreement. 
 2. Holdings is hereby relieved of the duties and obligations assumed by Management under this Agreement and shall be
indemnified and held harmless by Management for such obligations. 
 3. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Employment
Agreement, Executive (a) expressly consents to the assignment of duties, obligations, rights and benefits hereunder, (b) expressly acknowledges that the transfer of Executive’s employment from Holdings to Management will not result in

5. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to any conflicts of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. 

6. This Agreement constitutes an amendment to the Employment Agreement; provided, however, that except as expressly modified by this
