EXHIBIT 4.3
AMENDMENT to the EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT entered into on October 20, 1993 between
FRISCO BAY INDUSTRIES LTD. (the "Company"), and XXXXX XXXXXX (the "Employee").
WHEREAS Section 4.1 of the Agreement provides as follows:
"If the Employee shall die during the Term, this Agreement shall
terminate, except that the Employee's widow (if she is then alive) shall
be entitled to receive as a death benefit annual compensation paid to the
Employee during the fiscal year of the Company immediately preceding such
death, for a period of three (3) years from the date of such death to be
paid in equal, bi-weekly installments."
WHEREAS it is opportune to replace this Section 4.1 in its entirety with the
following:
"If the Employee shall die during the Term, this Agreement shall
terminate, except that the Employee's widow shall be entitled to receive
as a death benefit the annual compensation paid to the Employee during the
fiscal year of the Company immediately preceding such death, (the
"Benefit") for a period of three (3) years from the date of such death to
be paid in equal, bi-weekly installments (the "Payment Period"). If at the
time of the Employee's death the Employee's wife is also deceased the
Benefit shall be paid to the children of the Employee in equal shares. If
the Employee's wife shall die during the Payment Period the Benefit shall
continue to be paid to the children of the Employee in equal shares."
THEREFORE the parties hereto agree to amend the Employment Agreement entered
into on October 20, 1993 and to replace Section 4.1 as above.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have signed this Amendment to the Employment
Agreement on this 25 day of June 1996.
