Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2, Term, of the Agreement, the

during the first four and half years of the Term at any point in time that Amin
owns less than 500,000 shares of common stock of Company.
Except as specifically amended hereby, the Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect without modification. Capitalized terms used herein and not
otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement
except as modified hereby. This instrument may be executed in counter-parts
and/or via electronic facsimile and all such counter-parts and/or facsimile
copies shall be deemed one and the same and an original of this instrument. This
letter constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to
modification of the Agreement and any other matters related thereto, and
supersedes all prior negotiations and understandings of the parties in
connection therewith.
