Exhibit 10.1


 


AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT


 


THIS IS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT, entered into as of April 30, 2010, by and between Midas Medici Group Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Nana Baffour (the “Executive”) (the “Agreement”).


 


WHEREAS, Company previously entered into an employment agreement with Executive dated as of July 16, 2009 (the “Employment Agreement”), and the parties wish to amend such Employment Agreement, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby forever acknowledged, the parties, with the intent of being legally bound hereby, agree as follows:


 


1. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Employment Agreement, any reference to a determination to be made by the Board of Directors, shall be made by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, if one shall then be appointed.  Executive agrees that he shall not be a member of the Compensation Committee.


 


2. With respect to any discretionary bonus payment or bonus options to be awarded to the Executive, the goals for determining such bonus amounts may include measured improvement in EBITDA, stock price, revenue growth, operating margins, earnings, value added acquisitions and fund raising activities, which are intended to build long-term shareholder value.


 


3. Section 3.2 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:


 


3.2  Bonus Payment. In addition to the Base Salary, Executive shall be paid an annual cash bonus in the discretion of the Board of Directors (the “Bonus”).  The Bonus shall be paid to Executive within 30 days after the end of each anniversary of this Agreement.  The amount of such Bonus shall be targeted in a range from 0% to 250% of Base Salary, assuming Executive meets performance goals set by the Board of Directors, on a year to year basis.


 


In addition, the Executive’s target Bonus range will be reviewed, from time to time, and may be adjusted (upward, but not downward) at the discretion of the Board, including as a result of performing services for Company’s subsidiaries and affiliated companies.

5. Executive acknowledges and agrees that all compensation payable to Executive by Company or any direct or indirect subsidiary of Company shall be governed by the Employment Agreement, regardless of which entity actually pays such compensation.
