First Amendment to the Employee Matters Agreement

 Exhibit 10.02 
 FIRST AMENDMENT 
 TO THE 
 EMPLOYEE MATTERS AGREEMENT 
 WHEREAS, New Sally Holdings, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“New Sally”), Sally Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sally”) (New Sally and Sally, collectively the “Sally Parties”), Alberto-Culver Company, a Delaware corporation
(“Alberto-Culver”), and New Aristotle Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“New Alberto-Culver”) (Alberto-Culver and New Alberto-Culver, collectively the “Alberto-Culver Parties”), entered into
an Employee Matters Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of June 19, 2006; 
 WHEREAS, the Sally Parties and the
Alberto-Culver Parties desire to amend the stock option adjustment provisions in the Agreement to reflect the manner in which the stock of Alberto-Culver, New Sally and New Alberto-Culver are expected to trade on the New York Stock Exchange in
connection with the transactions described in the Separation Agreement entered into by the Sally Parties and the Alberto-Culver Parties, dated as of June 19, 2006; and 
 WHEREAS, Section 8.06 of the Agreement provides that the Agreement cannot be amended except by a written agreement executed by the Sally Parties and
the Alberto-Culver Parties; provided, that, unless the Investment Agreement (as such term is defined in the Agreement) shall have been terminated, any such amendment shall be subject to the prior written consent of CDRS Acquisition LLC
(“Investor”), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Agreement is
hereby amended in the following respects: 
 1. Section 1.05 of the Agreement hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

 1.05 “Alberto-Culver Pre-Distribution Stock Price” means the average of the high and low trading
prices per share of Alberto-Culver Common Stock on the Distributions Date. 
 2. Section 1.15 of the Agreement hereby is amended in its
entirety to read as follows: 
 1.15 “New Alberto-Culver Post-Distribution Stock Price” means the
average of the high and low trading prices per share of New Alberto-Culver Common Stock on the first full Business Day after the Distributions Date, or such other per share value as the Board of Directors of Alberto-Culver shall determine to be
appropriate. 

 3. Section 1.17 of the Agreement hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows: 

1.17 “New Sally Post-Distribution Stock Price” means the average closing price per share of New Sally Common
Stock over the first five full Business Days after the Distributions Date. 
 4. Section 4.04(a) of the Agreement hereby is amended in
its entirety to read as follows: 
 4.04 Equity Compensation Plans. 
 (a) Alberto-Culver Options. Each Alberto-Culver Option held by an Alberto-Culver Employee, Former Alberto-Culver Employee, member
or former member of the Alberto-Culver Board of Directors (a “Director”), Sally Employee or Former Sally Employee that is outstanding immediately before the AC Effective Time shall be converted into a New Sally Option. Each New
Sally Option shall have the same terms and conditions as the corresponding Alberto-Culver Option to which it relates and shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as the applicable Alberto-Culver Option Plan; provided,
however, that for purposes of the New Sally Options, unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “Alberto-Culver” therein shall be deemed to be to “New Sally” and all references to Alberto-Culver Common Stock
shall be deemed to be to New Sally Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, at no time will an Alberto-Culver Option be deemed to pertain to “New Alberto-Culver LLC” (as defined in the Investment Agreement). Alberto-Culver and New Sally
shall each take such actions as may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section. 
 5. This Amendment will be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to choice of law principles thereof). 
 6. Except as
specifically provided in this Amendment, all other provisions of the Agreement shall be in full force and effect. 
 7. This Amendment may be
executed in separate counterparts, each such counterpart being deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts will together constitute the same agreement.

 3THIS PROMISSORY NOTE ("NOTE") AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK THAT MAY BE ISSUED
UPON CONVERSION OF THE NOTE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND
HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, (THE
"ACT") OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW ("BLUE SKY REQUIREMENTS"). NEITHER THIS NOTE
NOR THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK WHICH THIS NOTE MAY BE CONVERTED MAY BE SOLD OR
TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT
OR UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO IT
STATING THAT SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND
PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT OR BLUE SKY REQUIREMENTS.

                           CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

$__________                                                   New York, New York
(Original Principal Amount)                            Date Issued April 6, 2005

      FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the
undersigned, College Oak Investments, Inc., a Nevada corporation (together with
its successors and/or assigns, the "Maker"), hereby promises to pay to the order
of ________ (the "Payee" or "Holder"), whose address is _____________________ on
or before April 6, 2006 (the "Maturity Date"), the principal sum of
______________ dollars ($______). Interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof
shall accrue at a rate of ten per cent (10%) per annum and shall be payable at
conversion in shares of common stock as set forth below. Payments due hereunder
shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America (or by wire
transfer or certified check payable in such money) at Payee's address (as given
above) or at such other place as Payee or any other holder of this Note may from
time to time have designated by prior written notice to Maker.

            This Note is issued in exchange of a Note of Coastal Energy
Services, Inc. ("Coastal") in like principal amount and is one of several Notes
issued in exchange for Notes of Coastal (the "Coastal Notes"). The rights of the
Holder shall be pari-passu with the rights afforded all other holders of Coastal
Notes. Pursuant to the Plan and Agreement of Merger entered into between the
Maker and Coastal, the Maker, amongst other things, assumed Coastal's obligation
under the Coastal Notes.

            1. Conversion. At any time prior to the payment of the amount
outstanding, the Holder may elect to convert all or a portion of the principal
amount of the Note and accrued interest into shares of the Maker's common stock,
upon delivering written notice thereof (the "Conversion Notice") to the Maker.

                                       1
<PAGE>

            The outstanding principal and interest accrued are convertible into
common stock at a rate of $0.25 per share (the "Conversion Price"). Accordingly,
if the Holder shall elect to convert the Note into shares of the Maker's common
stock, then the Holder would receive such number of shares of the Maker's common
stock equal to (a) the face value of this Note, together with interest accrued
and unpaid as of the date of the Conversion Notice divided by (b) $0.25. As an
additional "kicker" for participating in the Maker's private offering, upon
conversion, each Holder will receive an additional number of shares of the
Maker's common stock equal to (c) twenty percent (20%) of the face amount of
this Note divided by (d) $0.25.

            If the Maker at any time after the date of issuance of this Note
subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise)
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, then the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be
proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon
conversion of this Note will be proportionately increased. If the Maker at any
time after the date of issuance of this Note combines (by combination, reverse
stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination will be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note will be proportionately decreased.
Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of
business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

            If the Holder has not elected to convert this Note prior to the
Maturity Date, then all principal and accrued interest on the Notes shall be
payable by the Company on the Maturity Date.

            2. Allocation. All payments made hereunder (whether in prepayment or
otherwise) shall first be applied against any interest then due hereunder and
shall then be applied against principal.

            3. Events of Default. The following shall constitute Events of
Default:

                  a. Maker shall fail to pay when due, any payment of principal
or interest due under this Note, which failure continues for a period of five
(5) days after delivery of notice of such failure to Maker; or

                  b. Written admission by Maker of its inability to pay its
debts as they become due, an assignment by Maker for the benefit of creditors,
the institution of proceedings by Maker under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any
state law relating to relief of debtors, or the institution of such proceedings
by another party against Maker which is not subsequently dismissed within ninety
(90) days of the filing of same, or the seizure of substantially all of the
assets of Maker.

                                       2
<PAGE>

            If an Event of Default should occur, Payee, at its option, may (i)
allow the Note to remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest at the rate
provided for above or (ii) declare the outstanding principal balance of
principal and all accrued but unpaid interest on this Note to be immediately due
and payable without presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind, all of
which are hereby expressly waived.

            Further, Maker agrees to pay all fees, costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, incurred by Payee in endeavoring
to collect any amounts payable hereunder which are not paid when due, whether by
acceleration or otherwise.

            4. Waiver. No delay or omission of Payee in exercising any right or
power hereunder shall impair such right or power or be a waiver of any default
or an acquiescence therein; and no single or partial exercise of any such right
or power shall preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of
any other right; and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing signed by Payee,
and then only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies
hereunder or by law afforded shall be cumulative and shall be available to Payee
until the principal amount of and all interest on this Note have been paid in
full.

            5. Notices. All notices, requests, demands or other communications
required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing, addressed to the
appropriate party as follows:

    If to Maker, to:

    College Oak Investments, Inc.
    c/o Eaton & Van Winkle LLP
    3 Park Avenue
    New York, NY 10016

and to Payee at the address first indicated above or to such other address as
may have been designated in prior notice. Notices may be sent by (a) overnight
courier or (b) registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested; and shall be deemed given (i) in the case of overnight courier, the
next business day after the day sent and (ii) in the case of mailing, four (4)
business days after being mailed by registered or certified mail, and otherwise
notices shall be deemed to have been given when received.

            6. Successors and Assigns. All of the terms and provisions of this
Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns.

            7. Headings. The section headings contained in this Note are
intended solely for convenience of reference and do not themselves constitute a
part of this Note.

            8. Severability. If any provision of this Note or the application
thereof to any person or circumstance should, for any reason and to any extent,
be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Note and the application of
such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby,
but rather shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.

            9. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue. This Note shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York without
regard to conflict of law provisions. Any legal suit, action or proceeding
arising out of or based upon this Note shall be instituted in any federal or
state court only in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, State of New
York.
