2              Section 4(e) is

5.             Section 5(d)(iii) is

on that date, the Company shall pay the amount of bonus that is
determinable and the remainder shall be paid in a lump sum cash payment within
10 days of the date that annual performance results are finalized, but in no
event later than March 15 of the year following the year in which
Executive’s termination of employment occurs. 
With respect to
any reimbursements under this Agreement, such reimbursement shall be made on or

reimbursement during any other taxable year. 
Perquisites otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this
paragraph shall be reduced to the extent comparable perquisites are actually

(b)           Timing
of Payments.  All payments under
paragraphs (a)(i), (ii) and (iv) above, and paragraph (c) below,
shall be made in a lump sum cash payment as soon as practicable (but in no
event more than 10 days) following the Executive’s termination of
employment.  If the total amount of
annual bonus is not determinable on that date, the Company shall pay the amount
of bonus that is determinable and the remainder shall be paid in a lump sum

agreement that is subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made by the
Company to the Executive by the end of the Executive’s taxable year next
following the Executive’s taxable year in which the Executive remits the
related taxes.  In the event the
Executive’s right to a tax reimbursement payment is incurred due to a tax audit
or litigation addressing the existence or amount of a tax liability, whether
Federal, state, local, or foreign, then payment shall be made by the Company to
the Executive by the end of the Executive’s taxable year following the
Executive’s taxable year in which the taxes that are the subject of the audit
or litigation are remitted to the taxing authority, or where as a result of such
audit or litigation no taxes are remitted, the end of the Executive’s taxable
year following the Executive’s taxable year in which the audit is completed or
there is a final and nonappealable settlement or other resolution of the
litigation.

 

13.           A new Section 21 is added to read as follows:

 

21.           Compliance
with Section 409A. 
Notwithstanding any provision in this agreement to the contrary, the
agreement shall be interpreted, construed and operated, to the extent
applicable, in accordance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations and other guidance issued
thereunder.  For purposes of determining
whether any payment made pursuant to the agreement results in a “deferral of
compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury
Regulation §1.409A-1(b), the parties shall maximize the exemptions described in
such section.  Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Executive is a “specified
employee” (determined in accordance with Code Section 409A and Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(2)) as of the date of Separation from
Service (other than a Separation from Service due to death), then any payment,
benefit or entitlement provided for in this Agreement that constitutes “deferred
compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and that is payable
during the first six months following the date of Separation from Service shall
be paid or provided to the Executive in a lump sum cash payment to be made on
the earlier of (a) the Executive’s death or (b) the first business
day (or within 30 days after such first business day) of the seventh calendar
month immediately following the month in which the date of Separation from
Service occurs.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this
Agreement as of January 1, 2008.
