The Board of Directors will formally approve salary changes. In the past these changes have been approved at the October Board meeting, with any increase retroactive to October 1^st. With your start date of September 29, it is anticipated that your next merit review would be effective October 1, 2012. Additionally, you will be provided a monthly taxable car allowance of $1,000. This allowance will be paid semi-monthly as part of the normal payroll process. In addition, we will reimburse you for all business miles driven as part of the normal expense reporting process. The current reimbursement rate is one half the government rates, due to the fact that you are provided a company car allowance.

• The Company currently has available an annual incentive plan for selected employees. Incentive pay in the plan is tied to the Company meeting its goals as described on a matrix of measurements focused on sales, profitability and cash flow. The plan will be divided into two elements, performance of Xxxxxxx & Xxxxx, Inc. which is 25% of the incentive opportunity and the remaining 75% which will be based upon the combined results of the business for which you are responsible. Your target percentage will be set at 50% of your annual base salary. The FY12 plan will become effective as of September 1, 2011, and achievement of the Company’s targets will result in a 50% bonus. Based on results, the bonus can range from 0% to 100% of salary. All annual bonuses will be paid following the release of the audited financial results for the fiscal year which should occur in October.

• You are also eligible for participation in the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan for executive officers for the three-year period beginning September 1, 2011. Your annual target value for this plan will be set at $250,000 (PAR level). Typically the targeted value is divided equally between stock options, RSU’s, and a performance based restricted stock awards program Meeting minimum threshold targets on the performance share award will result in a payment of 50% of PAR, and achieving the maximum targets will pay out at 200% of PAR. These plans are approved by the Compensation Committee annually and there is no guarantee that the plan, its components or your target amount will remain unchanged.

• Due to the timing of this change, we will also provide a sign-on bonus. Restricted stock with a value of approximately $350,000 will be granted to you on your hire date. These shares xxxx xxxxx vest on the third year anniversary from your hire date.

• The Company will reimburse you for the expense associated with the preparation of your personal income tax filings.

• You will be eligible to participate in the executive retirement program, which is a non-qualified SERP that contributes 10% of your annual pay (base and annual bonus) less company contributions to your 401K plan, to your retirement account.
