follows:

     1. Section 7 shall be, and it hereby is, amended with the addition of a new subsection to the
end thereof as follows:

	 	 	“7.12. Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, to the extent required to comply with Section
409A of the Code, if the Employee is deemed to be a “specified employee”
for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code, the Employee agrees that

connection with a termination of the Employee’s employment hereunder that

immediately following such termination of employment shall not be paid
prior to, and shall instead be payable in a lump sum as soon as practicable

uncertainty surrounding the application of Section 409A of the Code, the
Company cannot make any guarantee as to the treatment under Section 409A of
the Code of any payments made or benefits provided under this Agreement.”

 

 

     2. The Agreement, as amended by the foregoing changes, is ratified and confirmed in all
