Agreement (modified in accordance with item 3 below).
2. As of the date hereof Licensee agrees that Licensor shall have the

respective automobile dealers as well as sold direct to consumers through
Licensor's internet site.
3. EXHIBIT B and EXHIBIT D to the License Agreement are hereby deleted in
their entirety and the EXHIBIT B and EXHIBIT D attached hereto shall be inserted
in their place.
