NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and understandings set forth herein and for good and valuable consideration the adequacy and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.             Clause (b) of Section 4 of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the fifth sentence thereof in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Upon any termination of this Agreement or of Employee’s employment with the Employer hereunder for any reason, all Granted Units which shall have vested as of the date of termination or expiration of the Term, shall, upon the request of the Employee, and subject to any restrictions or limitations contained in any financing arrangements of PGP or any of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, be redeemed by PGP for cash at the fair market value thereof (as determined below), within 90 days of the date of such request.”

2.             Except as herein amended, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is ratified in all respects. During the Effective Period, each reference in the Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein” or words of like import, and each reference to the Agreement in any other agreements, documents or instruments executed and delivered pursuant to the Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Agreement, as amended by this Third Amendment.

3.             Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.

4.             This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
