Dear Chris:


 


As you know,

you now wish to amend and supplement the Employment Agreement in certain
respects as set forth in this letter agreement (this “Amendment”). 
We and you both acknowledge and agree that this Amendment is being made
for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
also acknowledged.  Each capitalized term

date hereof and expiring December 31, 2007; provided, that on December 31,
2007 and on each subsequent December 31, this Agreement will automatically
be extended for one additional year unless, during the four month period beginning March 1 and
ending July 1 immediately prior to the next scheduled extension, you or we
will have given written notice (a “Non-Renewal Notice”) that the
Employment Period will not be extended (a “Non-Renewal”).


 


2.             Employment Agreement Otherwise Unchanged. 
Except as specifically amended or supplemented in this Amendment, the
Employment Agreement will continue in full force and effect in accordance with
its terms.
