                                    --------

          A. The Company and Executive entered into an Amended and Restated
Employment Agreement dated as of February 27, 2008 (the "Agreement").

          B. The Company and Executive desire to further amend the Agreement to
extend its Term (as defined in the Agreement) and to make the other changes set
forth herein.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual
covenants contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged:

          1.   Section 2 of the Agreement is hereby amended solely to change the
               ending date of the Term from March 7, 2009 to March 7, 2011. All
               other provisions of Section 2 of the Agreement shall remain
               unchanged.

          2.   Section 5(b) of the Agreement is hereby amended solely to change
               "2009 bonus" in the penultimate sentence to "2011 bonus." All
               other provisions of Section 5(b) of the Agreement shall remain
               unchanged.

          3.   A new Section 22 is hereby added to the Agreement to read as
               follows:

                  21. Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
                  the Agreement, if Executive is a "specified employee" within
                  the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, as
                  amended (the "Code"), at the time of Executive's separation
                  from service, and if any payment or benefit otherwise payable
                  to Executive by the terms of this Agreement is considered to
                  be non-qualified deferred compensation under the Code, then
                  the Company shall delay any such payment or benefit to
                  Executive until the earliest date permitted under Section 409A
                  of the Code without causing Executive to incur excise tax.

          4.   All provisions of the Agreement not amended hereby shall remain
               in full force and effect.


          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment to
Employment Agreement as of the date first above written.
