                  1. 

                	
                             Employment.

                

        

         

      

    

               The

                  2. 

                	
                             Duties.

                

        

         

                2.1           The Executive shall be employed as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  As Chief Executive Officer, Executive’s duties shall
include, but will be responsible for all duties and services required of
a chief executive of an investment manager.  The Executive shall be on
Board of
Directors of the Company (the “Board”).  

         

                2.2           The
Executive’s principal place of employment shall be located in Rye, New
York.  If the Executive wishes to relocate, then the new location must
be agreed to and approved by the Board.

      

    

     

    
      
        
          
            	
                    3. 

                  	
                               Compensation.

                  

          

           

        

      

    

                          3.1           As
compensation for the services rendered hereunder, the Executive will be paid an
annual draw of   Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000),
less applicable payroll and withholding tax deductions, payable monthly in equal
installments and prorated for the period of actual employment, against his
incentive compensation determined in accordance with Section 3.3 below ("Annual
Draw").  

                          3.2           For
clarification, within each calendar year, if the amount owed to the Executive
pursuant to Section 3.3 for any month is less than the installment of his Annual
Draw for such month, such difference will be used to offset any other amounts
owed to him pursuant to such Section for
any other month which exceed the installment of his Annual Draw for such month;
provided, however, that after each calendar year -end no debit balance will be carried forward
against his Annual Draw or other compensation for
the following years.

                          3.3           In
calculating his compensation for the services rendered hereunder, the Executive
shall receive incentive compensation, less applicable payroll and withholding
tax deductions, payable monthly in equal installments, as follows:

     

    
      
        	 	
                

                  (a)
      For managing GAMCO Westwood
      SmallCap Equity Fund (“GWSC”) and
      any other mutual funds (the
      “Funds”), the Executive will receive incentive
      compensation equal to twenty percent (20%) of the Net Revenues (as defined
      below) received by the Company with respect to the Funds.  Net Revenues will be
      calculated based on the investment advisory fees (and shall exclude any
      12b-1 fees) actually received by the
      Company with respect to the fund net of (i) administration,
      marketing and related expenses for the fund (which expenses will be
      charged at thirty basis points (0.30%) of the average net assets of the
      fund), (ii) any payments made by the
      Company or its affiliates to no-transaction-fee (NTF) programs with
      respect to the fund, (iii) any payments or waivers made by the Company to the Funds
      to reduce expenses and (iv) other incremental expenses related to the
      operations of the Funds (such as travel and entertainment,
      additional analyst compensation and benefits, or financial information
      services). The calculation of Net Revenues will be based upon accounting
      practices used by the Company in the normal course of its business in its
      sole discretion.

                

              

      

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)
      For attracting new separate accounts
      to the Company, the Executive will be paid a percentage of the investment
      advisory fee revenues received by the Company from such business (up to
      40% for marketing and portfolio management),  in the same manner
      and at the same standard payment rates in effect from time to time as the
      Company pays to its other staff for similar services, consistent with
      applicable laws and regulations, and subject to the discretion of the
      Board.  The Board will decide any issues or disputes concerning
      the Executive’s receipt of compensation pursuant to this
      Section.  

            

    

     

                          3.4           For the sales of those share classes of the GAMCO
Westwood Funds that carry a 12b-1 fees  and other mutual funds which
may be managed by the Company from time to
time (the “Westwood Funds”), Executive will be compensated at forty percent (40%)
of the 12b-1 fees (provided that the Executive holds appropriate securities
licenses and registrations with a distributor of the GAMCO Westwood Funds)
typically paid to distributors of the Westwood Funds for such
accounts.

     

           3.5   As
further incentive compensation, the Executive will receive twenty percent (20%)
ownership of the Company, on a fully diluted basis, in the form of a restricted
stock award of Class A Common Shares (the
“Galluccio Shares”) as of the date on which the Company’s securities are
distributed to GAMCO Investors, Inc. (“GAMCO”)
shareholders.  The Executive shall vest in thirty percent (30%)
of the Galluccio Shares on the third
anniversary of the Effective Date and the balance
of the Galluccio Shares on the fifth anniversary of the Effective
Date.  In the event of a change of control of the Company (as
defined below) however, said vesting shall
be accelerated and the Executive shall vest in all the Galluccio Shares no later
than immediately prior to the change of control being consummated1.  Accelerated vesting shall also occur as provided in Section 4.3 of this
Agreement.    Additional terms and conditions of the Galluccio Shares will be set forth in a
Restricted Stock Award Agreement between the Company and the Executive, as
approved by the Board.

     

    1 For purposes of this Section, Change of Control shall
be deemed to have occurred in the event
that the Board of Directors of the Company in its sole discretion determines
that a change in control has occurred for the purposes of  the
restricted stock plan.   

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

            3.6   Any and
all rights to receive compensation payments, including incentive compensation,
shall not survive the term of the Executive's employment except as specifically
set forth in Section 4 of this Employment Agreement.

     

    
      
        
          
            
              	
                      4. 

                    	
                                 Term.

                    

            

             

          

        

      

    

           4.1   The term
of this Employment Agreement commences on the Effective Date and continues
through the date that is five (5) years after the Effective Date (the
"Anniversary Date"), unless extended or terminated pursuant to this Section
4.

     

    
             4.2   This
Employment Agreement shall terminate upon the Executive's death.  If
the Executive fails, due to disability or incapacity, to perform substantially
and continuously his material and essential duties hereunder for more than
forty-five (45) days out of any twelve-month period, the Company may terminate
the Executive's employment on written notice to the extent consistent with
applicable law.  If the Executive dies or his employment is terminated
for disability or incapacity, the Executive or his estate shall be entitled to
receive all compensation set forth in Section 3 earned and accrued
through the date of his death or such termination.  Otherwise, the
Company shall have no further obligations and the Executive shall have no
further rights hereunder.

    

     

            4.3   In the
event that the Company terminates the Executive's employment on or prior to the

as set forth in and payable in accordance with the provisions of Section
3.1 and any and all incentive compensation as set
forth in Section 3.3 and 3.4 earned and accrued through the date of
termination.  The Executive shall also immediately vest in twenty
percent (20%) of the Galluccio Shares if
the termination (other than for cause) occurs prior to the third anniversary of
the Effective Date or twenty percent (20%) of the unvested portion of the
Galluccio Shares, if such termination occurs subsequent to the third anniversary
of the
Effective Date.  Otherwise, the Company shall have no further
obligations and the Executive shall have no further rights
hereunder.

                        

           
        4.4   In the
event that the Company terminates the Executive's employment for cause, the
Executive shall be entitled to receive his compensation received through the
date of such termination.  Otherwise, the Company shall have no
further obligations and the Executive shall have no further rights
hereunder, other than with respect to the
Galluccio Shares, if any.

    
                          

    

                      
     4.5           After
the Anniversary Date, unless the Executive and the Company agree in writing to
extend the term of this Employment Agreement, the Executive's employment will be
"at-will" and either the Executive or the Company may terminate such employment
for any reason, and neither party will be required to give cause for termination
to the other.  If the Company terminates the Executive's employment
after the Anniversary Date, with or without Cause, it will pay the Executive his
compensation earned and accrued through the date of his
termination.  Otherwise, the Company shall have no further obligations
and the Executive shall have no further rights hereunder.

     

                          
 4.6           If
the Executive resigns, the Company shall pay the Executive his compensation
earned and accrued through the date of his termination.  Otherwise,
the Company shall have no further obligations and the Executive shall have no
further rights hereunder, other than those with
respect to the Galluccio Shares, if
any.

     

                            4.7           If
the Executive resigns on or prior to the Anniversary Date, the Executive shall
provide the Company with at least one hundred and eighty (180) days’ notice
prior to terminating his employment under this Employment Agreement; provided,
however, that the Company in its sole discretion may waive such notice and
accept the Executive's resignation on any earlier date.  If the
Executive resigns after the Anniversary Date, the Executive shall provide the
Company with at least forty-five (45) days’ notice prior to terminating his
employment under this Employment Agreement.

               

              
             4.8           As
used in this Section 4, "cause" means that the Executive (a) commits or enters a

involving the business of the Company; (b) in the performance of his duties
hereunder or otherwise acts to the material detriment of the Company, engages in
(i) willful misconduct, (ii) willful or gross neglect, (iii) fraud, (iv)
misappropriation, (v) embezzlement, (vi) theft or (vii) a reportable violation
of the securities industry laws, rules or regulations, including the rules and
regulations of any self-regulatory organization as to which the Executive was a
significant contributor; (c) fails to perform his duties in a manner which
constitutes his willful refusal to perform, or gross neglect of, his duties
consistent with the directions of  the Board or with the policies and
practices of the Company, which refusal or neglect remains uncured for a period
of thirty (30) days following notice by the Company to the Executive; (d)
breaches this Agreement in any material respect, which breach remains uncured

theft, embezzlement, fraud, or other intentional act of dishonesty involving any
other person.

     

    
      
        
          
            
              
                	
                        5. 

                      	
                                   Extent
      of Service-Restrictive Covenant.

Company and shall not engage in any activities involving a conflict of interest
with the business or trade relationships of the Company, other than as a wholly
passive investor in publicly traded securities or with the written consent of
the Board.

     

                             5.2           The
Executive recognizes that the business of the Company is international in scope
and that the services to be performed hereunder and the methods employed by the
Company are such as will place the Executive in close business and personal
relationships with the clients and employees of the
Company.  Therefore, from and after the Effective Date and until the termination
hereof, or of his employment with the Company,
whichever is earlier, unless acting as an officer or employee of the
Company, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, for his own benefit or
for, with, or through any other person, firm or corporation own, manage,
operate, join, control, loan money to or participate in the ownership,

connection with, any business which is the same as, similar to or competitive
with any of the business activities in which the Company or any affiliates
thereof are engaged during such period, except as a wholly passive investor in
publicly traded securities or with the written consent of the Board.

executives generally, provided that the Executive meets the qualifications
therefore.

               Both
parties recognize and acknowledge that the services to be rendered under this
Employment Agreement by the Executive are special, unique, and of an
extraordinary character, and that any breach or violation by the Executive of
any terms and conditions of this Employment Agreement to be performed by him
including, without limitation, Sections 5, 7 and 8 hereof, will cause
irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages alone will not provide
an adequate remedy to the Company.  It is therefore agreed that,
without in any way limiting any other rights, defenses, powers or privileges
which the Company may then have, the Company shall be entitled, if it so elects,
to institute and prosecute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction,
either in law or in equity, to enforce the specific performance of the
provisions of this Employment Agreement by the Executive and/or to enjoin the
Executive from acting in breach of violation hereof.

failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this
Employment Agreement on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver
or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to

controversies arising between the Company and the Executive, including but not
