$50,000 each (i) upon the successful closing of a transaction for the

“Change in Control” (as defined in her employment agreement) and (ii) upon
the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of all financial
reports for fiscal year 2009 deemed necessary by the
Company. Prior to Amendment No. 3, Ms. Nam was entitled to
certain transactional bonuses of the same amount that were payable upon

If
(i) the Company terminates Ms. Nam’s employment without “Cause” (as
defined in her employment agreement), (ii) Ms. Nam terminates her
employment for “Good Reason” (as defined in her employment agreement), or
(iii) the Company does not renew the employment agreement at the end of
any term, Ms. Nam will be entitled to receive a severance package
consisting of (1) any unpaid base salary through and including the date of
termination or resignation and any other amounts, including any declared
but unpaid annual bonus or other entitlements, then due and owning to Ms.
Nam, (2) the sum of (x) Ms. Nam’s base salary (at the rate then in effect)
for twelve months and (y) the amount of bonuses paid to Ms. Nam in the
prior twelve month period, and (3) twelve months of continued health care
coverage. If Ms. Nam’s employment is terminated by the Company
without “Cause” or if Ms. Nam resigns for “Good Reason” within a year of a
“Change of Control”, Ms. Nam will be entitled to the same severance
package as described in the preceding sentence. Prior to
Amendment No. 3, Ms. Nam was entitled to a reduced severance package in
the event that the Company did not renew her employment agreement or if
the Company terminated her employment without “Cause” or if Ms. Nam
resigned for “Good Reason” during any renewal
term. Additionally, the amount of bonuses paid to Ms. Nam in
the prior twelve months was only included in the “Change of Control”
severance scenarios. Amendment No. 3 harmonized all severance
scenarios to provide for the same severance
package.
