    AMENDMENT
TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT DATED MAY 29, 2007 

    BETWEEN AMERICAN MEDICAL ALERT CORP. AND FREDERIC
SIEGEL

     

    The
parties hereto hereby enter into this Amendment to the original Employment
Agreement dated May 29, 2007 whereby:

    

    1.
Section 4 (c) (iii) deleted from the Agreement and replaced with the
following:

    

    (iii) one
of the following number of shares based on the year-over-year growth of the
Company’s EBIT on a consolidated basis for each of the fiscal years ending
December 31, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010. However, if within any year there is a
non-operational write-up or write-down which impacts the results of operations,
the effect of such non-operational write-up or write-down will be excluded when
calculating the EBIT year over year growth in the following year (i.e. If the
Company had EBIT of $3,000,000 for 2007, which includes a non-operational
write-down of $500,000, the following year growth would be based off $3,500,000
($3,000,000 of EBIT plus the addback of the $500,000 for the non-operational
expense).

     

    3,000
shares, if EBIT grows by 15% or more but less than 17.5%; 4,000 shares, if EBIT
grows by 17.5% or more but less then 20%; 5,250 shares, if EBIT grows by 20% or
more but less than 22.5%; 6,500 shares, if EBIT grows by 22.5% or more but less
than 25%; or 8,500 shares, if EBIT grows by 25% or more.

    

    Except as
hereinabove set forth, the terms and provisions of the aforementioned Employment
Agreement executed by and between the parties shall remain in full force and
effect.

    

    

    IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused the Amendment to the Employment
Agreement to be executed on March 30, 2009.

Company;

     

    WHEREAS,
pursuant to the Plan, the Administrator has determined that the Holder is

    WHEREAS,
the parties now desire to enter into the Agreement.

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained

attached hereto as Exhibit A, with
respect to the Restricted Shares.

     

    2.           Legends.

     

    (a)           The
Restricted Shares shall be represented by a stock certificate or certificates
registered in the name of the Holder.

SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE UNVESTED AND ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN
REPURCHASE RIGHTS GRANTED TO THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ALERT CORP. ("COMPANY") AND

THE SHARES (OR THE PREDECESSOR IN INTEREST TO THE SHARES). A COPY OF SUCH
AGREEMENT IS MAINTAINED AT THE COMPANY'S PRINCIPAL CORPORATE
OFFICES."

    

    3.           Transfer
Restrictions

     

    (a)           Restriction on
Transfer.   Except for any Permitted Transfer, Holder
shall not transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of the
Restricted Shares which are subject to the Repurchase Right.

     

    (b)           Transferee
Objections. Each Person (other than the Company) to whom the Restricted
Shares are transferred by means of a Permitted Transfer must, as a condition
precedent to the validity of such transfer, acknowledge in writing to the
Company that such Person is bound by the provisions of this Agreement and that
the transferred shares are subject to the Repurchase Right.

     

    4.           Repurchase
Right.

     

    (a)           Grant. The Company is
hereby granted the right (the "Repurchase Right"),
exercisable at any time during the ninety (90)-day period following the date
Holder ceases for any reason to remain in Service, to repurchase at the Per
Share Purchase Price all or any portion of the Restricted Shares in which Holder
is not, at the time of his or her cessation of Service, vested in accordance
with the Vesting Schedule (such shares to be hereinafter referred to as the
"Unvested
Shares").

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (b)           Exercise of the Repurchase
Rights. The Repurchase Right shall be exercisable by written notice
delivered to each Owner of the Unvested Shares prior to the expiration of the
ninety (90)-day exercise period. The notice shall indicate the number of
Unvested Shares to be repurchased and the date on which the repurchase is to be
effected, such date to be not more than thirty (30) days after the date of such
notice. In order to effect any such repurchase, the Company shall pay to Owner,
in cash or cash equivalents, an amount equal to the Per Share Purchase Price
multiplied by the number of Unvested Shares which are to be repurchased from
Owner.

     

    (c)           Termination of the
Repurchase Right. The Repurchase Right shall terminate with respect to
any Unvested Shares for which it is not timely exercised under Paragraph 4(b).
In addition, the Repurchase Right shall terminate and cease to be exercisable
with respect to any and all Restricted Shares in which Holder vests in
accordance with the Vesting Schedule.

     

    (d)           Recapitalization. Any
new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including cash paid
as a dividend or otherwise) which is by reason of any Recapitalization
distributed with respect to or in exchange for the Restricted Shares shall be
immediately subject to the Repurchase Right, but only to the extent the
Restricted Shares are at the time covered by such right. Appropriate adjustments
to reflect such distribution shall be made to the number and/or class of
Restricted Shares subject to this Agreement and to the Per Share Purchase Price
to be paid upon the exercise of the Repurchase Right in order to reflect the
effect of any such Recapitalization upon the Company's capital structure; provided, however,
that the aggregate of the Per Share Purchase Price applicable to all Unvested
Shares shall remain the same. Any securities or other property (including cash)
distributed with respect to the Restricted Shares as a dividend or otherwise
which are subject to the Repurchase Right shall be held in escrow.

     

    (e)           Special Tax Election.
The grant of the Restricted Shares may result in adverse tax consequences which
may be avoided or mitigated by filing an election under Code Section 83(b). Such
election must be filed within thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement.
The form for making the Code Section 83(b) election are set forth in Exhibit B
hereto.  HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER TAX ADVISOR TO
DETERMINE THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF ACQUIRING THE RESTRICTED SHARES AND THE
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF FILING THE CODE SECTION 83(B)
ELECTION.  HOLDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS HOLDER'S SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE COMPANY'S, TO FILE A TIMELY ELECTION UNDER CODE
SECTION 83(B), EVEN IF EMPLOYEE REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO
MAKE THIS FILING ON HIS OR HER BEHALF.

any of its Subsidiaries, unless expressly provided pursuant to the terms of such
plan.
