Dear Xxx:
This letter will serve as notice to you of US&T's (the "Company") election
to terminate your employment with the Company, not for cause, effective January

to modify your Employment Agreement, dated November 5, 1999, to the extent
provided for herein.
By agreement with US&T you will receive three (3) months severance
beginning upon the effective date of termination and you hereby agree you will
not be entitled to the remaining 15 months of severance as stated in the
