This constitutes Amendment No. 1 to that certain Third Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the “Employment Agreement”), dated August 28, 2009, by and between ubroadcast, inc., a Delaware corporation (“Employer”), and David Loflin (“Employee”).







For good and adequate consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree, as follows:








	
  

	
A.

	
Section III(C) of the Employment Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:













	
  

	
“C.

	
Salary.  Employee shall be paid as and for a salary the sum of $12,500 per month, beginning with the monthly period beginning December 15, 2009, which salary shall be payable on the 1st and 15th days of each calendar month, in advance, subject to deduction of lawful and required withholding; provided, however, that, for the first month (April 15, 2009, through May 14, 2009) of the initial term of this Agreement, Employee shall be paid the sum of $61,000 and that, for the second month (May 15, 2009, through June 14, 2009) of the initial term of this Agreement, Employee shall be paid the sum of $24,000.












In addition, Employee shall be afforded a monthly non-accountable expense reimbursement allowance in the amount of $1,200.00.








	
  

	
Employee’s unpaid salary shall accrue until paid by Employer.  Employee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be paid all or a portion of his accrued and unpaid salary in shares of Employer’s common stock, on the following basis:













	
  

	
on the 15th day of each calendar month, should Employee desire to convert his accrued and unpaid salary from the immediately preceding month into shares of Employer’s common stock, Employee shall deliver to Employer a written notice (a ‘Salary Conversion Notice’) of his intent to have Employer pay such accrued and unpaid salary in shares of Employer’s common stock.  Each Salary Conversion Notice shall set forth (1) the amount of accrued and unpaid salary to be converted into shares of Employer’s common stock and (2) the number of shares of Employer’s common stock which are to be issued to Employee based on the following formula:










	
  

	
Amount of accrued and unpaid salary from the immediately preceding month divided by the Applicable Share Price (defined below) equals the number of shares to be issued to Employee.  By way of example only, if Employee’s accrued and unpaid salary totals $5,000 and the Applicable Share Price is $.05, Employer would issue 100,000 shares of its common stock to Employee ($5,000 divided by $.05 equals 100,000 shares).













	
  

	
‘Applicable Share Price’ shall mean the average closing sale price of Employer’s common stock, as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board, for the three trading days immediately preceding the 15th day of each month.”












In all other aspects, the Employment Agreement is ratified and affirmed.

If Employee should cease his employment hereunder voluntarily for any reason, or is terminated for just cause, all future compensation and benefits payable to Employee shall thereupon, without any further writing or act, cease, lapse and be terminated.

No waiver or modification of this Agreement or of any covenant, condition or limitation herein contained shall be valid unless in writing and duly executed by the party to be charged therewith and no evidence of any waiver or modification shall be offered or received in evidence of any proceeding or litigation between the parties hereto arising out of, or affecting, this Agreement, or the rights or obligations of the parties hereunder, unless such waiver or modification is in writing, duly executed as aforesaid, and the parties further agree that the provisions of this Section VIII may not be waived except as herein set forth.







SECTION IX.  SEVERABILITY







All agreements and covenants contained herein are severable, and in the event any one of them, with the exception of those contained in Sections I, III, IV and V hereof, shall be held to be invalid in any proceeding or litigation between the parties, this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such invalid agreements or covenants were not contained herein.
