         Whereas, the Company and Executive desire to clarify and amend certain provisions of such Personal Services Agreement.

         Now, Therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

         2.     The first paragraph of Section 3(g) is hereby amended and restated to read in full as follows:

  (g)    Termination of Executive Following a Change of Control. In the event Executive’s employment is terminated, with or without Cause, upon or after a Change of Control of the Company, as defined below, the Executive shall receive the payments and benefits set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement as if Executive had been terminated “Without Cause” as defined in Section 3(c); provided, however, that any such payments (other than pro rata bonus payments, if any, under Section 4(e)) shall be paid in a lump sum within ten (10) days of such termination date.
