    Exhibit
A

     

    The
language in Section 1.1 below is hereby added to the Agreement:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.1

            	
              Section 409A; Deferred
      Compensation.

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.1.1

            	
              Delay in
      Payment.  Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to
      the contrary, if Executive is deemed by ICO at the time of Executive’s
      “separation from service” with ICO to be a “specified employee,” any
      non-exempt deferred compensation which would otherwise be payable
      hereunder shall not be paid until the date which is the first business day
      following the six-month period after Executive’s separation from service
      (or if earlier, Executive’s death).  Such delay in payment shall
      only be effected with respect to each separate payment of non-exempt
      deferred compensation to the extent required to avoid adverse tax
      treatment to Executive under Section 409A.  Any payments or
      benefits not subject to such delay shall be paid pursuant to the time and
      form of payment specified above.  Any compensation which would
      have otherwise been paid during the delay period shall be paid to
      Executive (or his beneficiary or estate) in a lump sum payment on the
      first business day following the expiration of the delay
      period.

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.1.2

            	
              Key
      Definitions.  For purposes of the Agreement, the term
      “termination of employment” shall mean “separation from service” and the
      terms “separation from service,” “specified employee” and “nonqualified
      deferred compensation” shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms
      pursuant to Section 409A.

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.1.3

            	
              Interpretation.  The
      parties intend that all payments or benefits payable under the Agreement
      will not be subject to the additional tax imposed by Section 409A of the
      Code, and the provisions of the Agreement shall be construed and
      administered consistent with such intent.  To the extent such
      potential payments could become subject to Section 409A of the Code, ICO
      and Executive agree to work together to modify the Agreement to the
      minimum extent necessary to reasonably comply with the requirements of
      Section 409A of the Code, provided that ICO shall not be required to
      provide any additional compensation or
benefits.

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.2

            	
              Termination:  Without
      Cause.  The language in the “Termination Without Cause”
      section of the Agreement is hereby amended as
  follows:

            

    

     

    The first
bullet after the sentence that begins with “In addition, ICO will provide you
with the following severance benefits...” is hereby deleted and replaced in its
entirety with the following:

     

    ·           “continuation
of your base salary then in effect, for a period of six (6) months (“Severance
Period”), which shall be paid in equal installments on the same date that ICO
makes its normal payroll payments in accordance with ICO’s payroll practices in
effect on the date Executive separates from service, except to the extent the
six-month delay in payment requirement of Section 409A applies.  Each
installment shall be considered a separate payment for purposes of Section
409A.  The first installment shall be made on the first pay date that
follows the date after Executive has separated from service and has executed and
not revoked the release of claims against ICO and the release is no longer
revocable, provided such date occurs within sixty (60) days following
Executive’s separation from service.”Unassociated Document

    ARTICLE
VII – SECTION 409A; DEFFERRED COMPENSATION

     

    7.1           Delay in
Payment.  Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the
contrary, if Executive is deemed by ICO at the time of Executive’s “separation

subject to Section 409A of the Code, ICO and Executive agree to work together to
modify the Agreement to the minimum extent necessary to reasonably comply with
the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, provided that ICO shall not be
required to provide any additional compensation or benefits.
