Page 4 of 23

Change in Effective Control. A “change in effective control,” as defined in the Regulations, occurs when any one Person or Group (other than UBL, Inc. or Persons acquiring securities through an initial public offering of UBL’s common stock) acquires, or has acquired within the preceding 12-month period, the voting common stock or any other voting securities of UBL (the “Voting Securities”), immediately after which such Person or Group has Beneficial Ownership of thirty percent (30%) or more of the combined voting power of UBL's then outstanding Voting Securities.

Change in the Incumbent Board.

10.	Excise Tax Payments

In the event that it shall be determined that any payment or distribution in the nature of compensation (within the meaning of section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) to or for Your benefit, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”), would constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of section 280G of the Code, the aggregate present value of the Payments under the Agreement shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the Reduced Amount (defined below), provided that the reduction shall be made only if the Accounting Firm (described below) determines that the reduction will provide You with a greater net after-tax benefit than would no reduction. The “Reduced Amount” shall be an amount expressed in present value which maximizes the aggregate present value of Payments under this Agreement without causing any Payment under this Agreement to be subject to the Excise Tax (defined below), determined in accordance with section 280G(d)(4) of the Code. The term “Excise Tax” means the excise tax imposed under section 4999 of the Code, together with any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such excise tax. Unless You shall have elected another method of reduction by written notice to UBL prior to the Change in Control, UBL shall reduce the Payments under this Agreement by first reducing Payments that are not payable in cash and then by reducing cash Payments. Only amounts payable under this Agreement shall be reduced pursuant to this Section 10. All determinations to be made under this Section 10 shall be made by an independent certified public accounting firm selected by UBL immediately prior to the Change of Control (the “Accounting Firm”), which shall provide its determinations and any supporting calculations both to UBL and to You within ten (10) days of the Change in Control. Any such determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon UBL and You. All of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in performing the determinations referred to in Section 10 shall be borne solely by UBL.

11.

Deferred Compensation and Section 409A. If, when Your employment with the Company terminates, You are a "specified employee" as defined in Section 409A(a)(1)(B)(i) of the Code, and if any payments under this Agreement, will result in additional tax or interest to You under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) ("Section 409A Penalties"), then despite any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, You will not be entitled to payments until the earliest of (a) the date that is at least six months after termination of Your employment for reasons other than Your death, (b) the date of the Employee's death, or (c) any earlier date that does not result in Section 409A Penalties to You. As soon as practicable after the end of the period during which payments are delayed under this provision, the entire amount of the delayed payments shall be paid to You in a lump sum. Additionally, if any provision of this Agreement would subject You to Section 409A Penalties, the Company will apply such provision in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code during any period in which an arrangement is permitted to comply operationally with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and before a formal amendment to this Agreement is required. For purposes of this Agreement, any reference to Your termination of employment will mean that You have incurred a "separation from service" under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and guidance there under.
