A. Sections 8.1 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

8.1 This Agreement shall be for a term (the “Initial Term”) commencing on the Effective Date (the “Commencement Date”) and terminating on June 25, 2017 (the “Expiration Date”), unless sooner terminated upon the death of the Employee, or as otherwise provided this Employment Agreement. From and after the Amendment Date, the term “Expiration Date”, as used in the Employment Agreement, shall mean and be June 25, 2017.

B. Article XI of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended to add the following section as follows:

11.1A (a)  As an inducement to Employee to enter into this Amendment, the Company hereby grants to Employee options to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $.001 par value (the “Options”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2006 Long Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), and the terms and conditions set forth in the Stock Option Agreement which are incorporated herein by reference.  The Options shall be exercisable at a per share exercise price equal to the Closing Price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of execution of this Amendment (the “Exercise Price”).  Provided Employee is an employee of the Company on each vesting date, and unless otherwise provided by this Agreement or in the Stock Option Agreement, the Options shall vest as follows: (i) 100,000 Options shall vest on September 30, 2015 and (ii) 100,000 Options shall vest if the Closing Price of the Company’s Common Stock equals or exceeds a per share price of 200% of the Exercise Price for a period of at least ten (10) consecutive trading days.

(b)     Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary set forth herein or in the Employment Agreement, in the event of either a termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or a Change in Control (as defined in the Employment Agreement), the Options granted to Employee pursuant to this Amendment shall be governed by Section 11.6 and the applicable provisions of Article XII of the Employment Agreement.
