1. Amendment to the Agreement. Section 1.4 of the Original Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
1.4 Compensation Upon a Change of Control. Employees compensation upon termination after a Change of Control shall be identical to the compensation provided under the various scenarios described in Sections 1.3.1, 1.3.2 and 1.3.3, except that immediately upon a Change of Control, regardless of termination, all of Employees unvested Stock Awards shall automatically accelerate and vest and/or become exercisable and the Employees Stock Awards shall remain exercisable by the Employee for a period of two (2) years following the date of termination or such shorter maximum period as will not result in adverse tax consequences to the Employee under Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.
