of December 3, 1996 ("Amendment No. 1");
WHEREAS, Xx. Xxxxxxxxx desires to retire from her full-time employment with

that Xx. Xxxxxxxxx will retire as of such date;
WHEREAS, the Corporation desires to retain a business relationship with Xx.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby

1. TERM OF EMPLOYMENT. Notwithstanding any provision of the Employment
Agreement to the contrary, Xx. Xxxxxxxxx'x full time employment with the
Corporation will terminate on July 31, 1998 (the "Retirement Date") and, to the
extent inconsistent herewith, paragraphs 2 and 8 of the Employment Agreement are
hereby modified such that neither the Corporation nor Xx. Xxxxxxxxx may
terminate such employment prior to the Retirement Date. Xx. Xxxxxxxxx
acknowledges and agrees that the Corporation may reasonably amend, modify or
eliminate prior to the Retirement Date some or all of her job responsibilities
or authority and her title and office of Chief Financial Officer upon the hiring
of a successor Chief Financial Officer; that she will, upon request of the
Corporation, resign prior to the Retirement Date from all or any of the offices
she currently holds with the Corporation, its parent and/or its subsidiaries,
except that Xx. Xxxxxxxxx shall not be required to resign from the office of
Senior Vice President of the Corporation until the Retirement Date; and that any
of the foregoing circumstances shall not entitle her to receive severance
payments or benefits pursuant to paragraph 8(g) of the Employment Agreement.
Notwithstanding the occurrence of any of the circumstances set forth in the
preceding sentence, Xx. Xxxxxxxxx shall continue to receive all compensation and
other benefits set forth in the Employment Agreement through the Retirement
Date. A pro-rata share of targeted cash incentive will accrue through the
Retirement Date. As of the Retirement Date, Xx. Xxxxxxxxx'x entitlement to
compensation, benefits and/or all other types of remuneration as an employee of
the Corporation shall cease, except as required by federal or state law;
provided however that all non-qualified stock options granted by Hyperion to Xx.
Xxxxxxxxx under Hyperion's 1991 Stock Plan shall continue in full force and
effect in accordance with the respective terms and conditions of such 1991 Stock
Plan and the Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreements evidencing such options so
long as Xx. Xxxxxxxxx maintains the business relationship with the Corporation
described in paragraph 2 hereof. The Corporation agrees Xx. Xxxxxxxxx'x stock
options referred to in the preceding sentence shall be treated similarly to the
stock options existing as of the date hereof of its vice presidents and/or
senior vice presidents in the event the Corporation determines to accelerate,
convert or modify in any way such existing stock options generally.

2. SENIOR ADVISORY ARRANGEMENT. For the period from the Retirement Date
through August 1, 2002 (the "Senior Advisory Term"), Xx. Xxxxxxxxx shall serve
the Corporation as a senior advisor to the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
In such capacity, Xx. Xxxxxxxxx will make herself available on a part-time basis
to provide advisory services to the Corporation regarding significant events,
transactions and strategies relating to the Corporation. Xx. Xxxxxxxxx agrees to
make herself available for a maximum of eight (8) hours per month or an
aggregate of 12 days per year to provide such advisory services; except during
each of the four quarterly closing months when Xx. Xxxxxxxxx shall be available
for up to twenty four (24) hours (the "Base Services"). For each year of the
Senior Advisory Term, Xx. Xxxxxxxxx will be paid the sum of $1,000 for the Base
Services. In the event the Corporation requests, and Xx. Xxxxxxxxx agrees to
provide, advisory services in excess of the Base Services, the Corporation shall
pay Xx. Xxxxxxxxx a mutually agreeable per diem amount for any such additional
services. The Senior Advisory Term may be extended or earlier terminated only by
mutual written consent of Xx. Xxxxxxxxx and the Corporation.

and extend to all "proprietary information" (as such term is used in the
Employment Agreement) which Xx. Xxxxxxxxx is exposed to as a result of the
senior advisory arrangement and shall encompass her provision of services
to the Corporation as described in paragraph 2 hereof.
4. Except as set forth herein, the Employment Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect in accordance with its terms.
5. This Agreement and all rights hereunder are personal to Xx. Xxxxxxxxx
