    Dear
      Mr.
      Weiss:

     

    Reference
      is hereby made to the Executive Employment Agreement, dated January 19, 2007
      (the “Agreement”), entered into between you (the “Executive”) and Fortress
      International Group, Inc. (formerly Fortress America Acquisition Corporation),
      (the “Company”).

     

    The
      parties hereby agree to amend the Agreement as follows:

     

    
      	
              1.

            	
              Change
                “WHEREAS,
                the Company desires to retain the services of the Executive as the
                Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company upon the terms
                and
                conditions set forth herein.”
                to “WHEREAS, the Company desires to retain the services of the Executive
                upon the terms and conditions set forth herein


            


    

     

    
      	
              2.

            	
              Section
                2.1.1 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
                

            


    

     

    2.1.1 Expressly
      conditioned upon the closing (the “Closing”)
      under
      the Purchase Agreement and effective as of the date of the Closing (the
“Closing
      Date”),
      the
      Company hereby employs the Executive, and the Executive hereby accepts said
      employment and agrees to render services to the Company, on the terms and
      conditions set forth in this Agreement for the period (the "Employment
      Period")
      beginning on the Closing Date and ending when such period is terminated pursuant
      to the terms hereof. Unless earlier terminated by either the Company or the
      Executive as hereinafter provided, the Employment Period shall continue through
      the fifth (5th)
      anniversary of the Closing Date ("Expiration
      Date");
      provided, however, that if this Agreement is renewed pursuant to Section
      2.1.2
      below,
      then the “Expiration Date” for the then current “Renewal Term” (as hereinafter
      defined) shall be the date that is last day of the one year period of that
      Renewal Term). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary continued in this
Section
      2.1.1,
      if the
      Closing under the Purchase Agreement does not occur, this Agreement shall be
      null and void and of no force and effect.

     

    3.
       Section
      3.1 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
      following:

    


    3.1.  Base
      Salary.
      During
      the Employment Period, the Company shall pay the Executive an initial base
      salary of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) per year ("Base
      Salary")
      paid
      in approximately equal installments bi-weekly until August 28, 2008. During
      the
      period from August 28th
      2008
      through the “Expiration Date” the Company shall pay the Executive a base salary
      of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) per year ("Base
      Salary")
      paid
      in approximately equal installments bi-weekly . The Company will review the
      Executive’s Base Salary on December 31 of each year of the Employment Period in
      order to determine what Base Salary adjustments, if any, shall be made but
      in no
      event may the Executive's Base Salary be reduced below that paid in the
      preceding year.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    4.
       Section
      3.2 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
      following:

    


    3.2.  Annual
      Bonus.
      For
      calendar year 2006 (ending on or about December 31, 2006) and for each
      other calendar year that begins during the Employment Period (each such calendar
      year, a "Bonus
      Year"),
      the
      Executive shall be eligible to receive a bonus in an amount and on such terms
      as
      are established by the Company's Board up to fifty percent (50%) of the Original
      $200,000 Base Salary (each, a "Bonus")
      in
      accordance with the bonus plan or formula applicable to the Executive which
      shall be equal in percentage to that of the CEO. The 2006 Bonus shall be
      prorated to reflect that the 2006 Bonus Year is a partial year commencing on
      the
      Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2006. In addition, the Executive
      shall be eligible for any other bonus as the Board may determine in its sole
      discretion. Any Bonus for an applicable calendar year, or portion thereof,
      shall
      be paid to the Executive no later than the conclusion of the first calendar
      quarter following each calendar year.

    


    5. Section
      4.1 is hereby deleted in its entirety and the monthly payment for office
      allowance shall cease. 

    


    6. Section
      7.4.2 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
      following:

    7.4.2 The
      Company at Company’s option, by written notice delivered to Executive not less
      than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the then current, applicable
      Restrictive Period, may extend the Restrictive Period (as previously extended
      under this Section 7.4.2) for an additional twelve (12) months, provided that
      Company pays to Executive during the extended Restrictive Period an amount
      equal
      to the Executive’s Original Base Salary or the Current Base Salary whichever is
      greater(at the rate effective as of the applicable Termination Date and over
      time and in the manner Executive would have received these payments had he
      continued to be employed by the Company).

    


     

    The
      Amendment is effective as of August 26, 2008. Except as otherwise set forth
      herein, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
