AGREEMENT
 
In consideration of the covenants undertaken and the releases contained in this Agreement, the Company and Executive agree as follows:
 
1.    Changes to Monthly Payments.    Section 3(a) of the Prior Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following paragraph:
 
“(a)    Monthly Payments.    The Company shall pay Executive the monthly sum of $18,750, less any legally required withholding and any other deductions required under applicable law. The first such payment shall be made to Executive on June 28, 2002, with each additional payment made on the 28th day of each succeeding month through November 2004 (or if such day is a national holiday, Saturday or Sunday, then on the first business day thereafter), such that the last monthly payment payable to Executive under this Section 3(a) shall be made to Executive on November 28, 2004 for a total of 30 payments. In addition to the foregoing payments, the Company shall pay Executive the monthly sum of $37,500, less any legally required withholding and any other deductions required under applicable law, with the first such $37,500 monthly payment to be made on December 28, 2004 and an additional $37,500 payment to be made on the 28th day of each succeeding month for the next five months (or if such day is a national holiday, Saturday or Sunday, then on the first business day thereafter), such that the last such $37,500 payment shall be made on May 28, 2005. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the unpaid amount of all the 36 monthly payments referred to in this Section 3(a) shall become immediately due and payable: (i) upon a Change of Control (as hereinafter defined); or (ii) in the event the Company improperly and unjustifiably fails to make a required payment under this Agreement within sixty days following the Company’s receipt from Executive of written notice of such failure. A Change of Control shall mean a merger or consolidation involving the Company, or sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or stock, in each case following which the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction no longer own, directly or indirectly, a majority economic interest in the Company.”
 
2.    Section 3(b).    Section 3(b) of the Prior Agreement is hereby deleted.
 
3.    No Other Changes.    Except as modified hereby, the Prior Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with no changes.
