EXHIBIT 10.1 US DATAWORKS, INC.
ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION AGREEMENT This ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION AGREEMENT (this Agreement) is made and
effective as of April 12, 2004, by and between US Dataworks, Inc., a Nevada
corporation (the Company) and John S. Reiland (Reiland). WHEREAS, the Company, to advance the interest of the Company by motivating
key executives to remain in the employ of the Company and to increase the value
of the Company, hereby agrees to pay certain additional compensation to
Reiland, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 1.  Additional
Compensation. (a) The Company hereby agrees to pay additional compensation to Reiland in
the amount of $430,000, payable, at the Companys option, either in cash or,
subject to shareholder approval, in freely tradeable shares of the Companys
common stock, (the Additional Compensation), in addition to Reilands salary,
bonuses and other compensation otherwise payable by the Company to Reiland.
Subject to Section 1(b) below, the Additional Compensation shall be paid in two
(2) equal installments of $215,000 each on March 17, 2006 and March 17, 2007. (b) Notwithstanding Section 1(a), if the average closing share price of
the Companys common stock for the twenty (20) trading days prior to March 17,
2006, as reported on the American Stock Exchange (or the principal stock market
on which the Companys common stock is then listed for trading) (the Average
Closing Price) is less than $2.70 per share, then Reilands Additional
Compensation shall be equal to the Average Closing Price less $0.55 multiplied
by 200,000. 2.  Termination. If Reilands employment with the Company is terminated by
the Company for Cause (as defined below) or if Reiland voluntarily terminates
his employment with the Company, Reiland will be entitled to such Additional
Compensation, if any, as has accrued under this Agreement through the effective
date of termination, but will not be entitled to any other Additional
Compensation. As used in this Agreement, the term Cause means the occurrence
of any of the following events (each of which shall constitute Cause): (i)
any embezzlement or wrongful diversion of funds of the Company or any affiliate
of the Company by Reiland; (ii) gross malfeasance or gross neglect by Reiland
in the conduct of Reilands duties; or (iv) willful violation by Reiland of any
applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations. 3.  Change
In Control. (a) If the Company is subject to a Change in Control (as defined in the
Plan) prior to March 17, 2007, or if Reiland resigns within ten (10) days
following a material diminution in his title or compensation within six (6)
months following a Change in Control then the Company will pay Reiland in one
lump sum all Additional Compensation, if any, as has accrued under this
Agreement through the effective date of termination and any other Additional
Compensation not yet accrued.

(b) If the Company is subject to a Change in Control (as defined in the
Plan) prior to March 17, 2007, Reiland shall be entitled to a cash bonus equal
to the excess of the fair market value of the shares for which Additional
Compensation was not granted as of the date of the Change of Control, over the
fair market value of such shares as of September 26, 2003. Any payments due
hereunder shall be paid within sixty (60) days of the date of the Change in
Control. 4.  Withholding
Payroll Taxes. To the extent required by the laws in effect
at the time payments are made, the Company shall withhold from payments made
hereunder any taxes required to be withheld for federal, state or local
governmental purposes. 5.  No
Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement nor any award of
Additional Compensation shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of
the Company to terminate Reilands employment at any time for any reason or no
reason, nor confer upon Reiland any right to continue in the employ of the
Company. 6.  Nature
Of Rights. This Agreement is solely an arrangement to pay
Additional Compensation. All benefits due under this Agreement are unfunded
and unsecured and are payable out of the general assets of the Company.
Reilands right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be no greater
than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company in the event of
its insolvency. 7.  Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire Agreement between the
parties and supersedes all prior oral and written Agreements, understandings,
commitments, or practices between the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof. Other than as expressly set forth herein, Reiland and the
Company acknowledge and represent that there are no other promises, terms,
conditions or representations (verbal or written) regarding any matter relevant
hereto. No supplement, modification, or amendment of any term, provision or
condition of this Agreement shall be binding or enforceable unless evidenced in
writing and executed by the parties. 8.  Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed exclusively by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, notwithstanding
choice of law provisions thereof; and the venue of any litigation commenced
hereunder shall be Houston, Texas. 9.  Notices. Notices given under this Agreement shall be given by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by
personal delivery to the respective addresses of the parties. Notices to
Reiland shall be sent to 5301 Hollister Road, Suite 250, Houston, Texas 77040,
Attn: John S. Reiland. Notices to the Company shall be sent to 5301 Hollister
Road, Suite 250, Houston, Texas 77040, Attn: Board of Directors. A mailed
first-class notice shall be deemed given two (2) business days after deposit
with U.S. Postal Service. 10.  Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned or encumbered in any
way by Reiland. The Company may assign this Agreement to any successor (whether
by merger, consolidation, or purchase of the Companys stock) to all or a
controlling interest in the Companys business, in which case this Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such successor(s) and
assign(s).
