WHEREAS, the Company and Oakes entered into the Agreement and now desire to amend the Agreement in certain respects, with this Amendment to be effective on and after August 16th, 2011, (the “Amendment Effective Date”);

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and Oakes agree as follows:

2.           The first sentence of Section 4(a) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“Oakes shall receive $16,667 per month ($200,000 per year) as base salary; provided, however, that from the Amendment Effective Date through December 31, 2011, Oakes shall receive $20,883 per month ($250,000 per year) as base salary (such amount, as applicable, the “Base Salary”).”

3.           Section 4(b) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“(b)           Oakes shall be granted, as of the Amendment Effective Date, options to purchase 22,500 shares of the Company’s common stock, 2,500 of such options to vest on the date of grant and the remaining 20,000 options to vest in four equal installments of 5,000 options on September 1st, October 1st, November 1st and December 1st, 2011. The stock options shall have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Except as expressly provided in this Amendment, all provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
