Re: Consultant Agreement
Dear Xxxx:
Pursuant to the notification terms of your existing Consultant Agreement, we are
pleased to inform you that North Atlantic Trading Company wishes to renew its
arrangement with you for fiscal year 2000, which will run from January 1, 200 to
December 31, 2000. The terms and conditions of that arrangement would be
maintained as currently stated in the current Consultant Agreement, dated as of
December 11, 1998.
As you recall, the additional compensation for reimbursement of secretarial
services, office rent and car expense were provided in a separate agreement and
was o expire on June 30, 1999 but, at your request, was extended until December
31, 1999. Given the circumstances associated with those one-time decisions, this
additional compensation will not be offered beyond December 31, 1999.
Once again, we would be very pleased to have you continue as a Consultant to the
Company for fiscal year 2000, we believe you provide real and significant value
to the Company. If the above is acceptable to you, please indicate your
agreement by signing below and return the executed document.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, Xx.
Agreed & Accepted this 27th day of September, 1999
