This Agreement is intended to not provide for the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409(A) and IRS notice 2005-1 and shall be construed in good faith compliance with the requirements for stock options that do not provide for the deferral of compensation.

In the event any provisions of this December 21 Amendment, including the Agreement, are determined to be potentially subject to the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409(A) and IRS notice 2005-1, or subsequent Treasury guidance, the Agreement will be administered and amended to ensure it is not subject to such requirements.

All other provisions of the Agreement (as amended on October 25, 2005 and February 1, 2006) remain in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and Employee have executed this December 21 Amendment on and as of the day and year first above written.
