Company; and
   WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Company and Sullivan to further amend the
Employment Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof; and 
   WHEREAS, Paragraph 12 of the Employment Agreement requires that any such

   NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual 
understandings of the parties, IT IS AGREED, as follows:

     fifth anniversary of the Effective Date (unless sooner terminated as
     hereinafter set forth).

   2.  COMPENSATION.  Paragraph 4(a) of the Employment Agreement shall be
deleted in its entirety and amended and restated to provide in its entirety as
