"TMPW shall employ Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx agrees to serve as President and
Chief Operating Officer."
2. The first sentence of Section 3 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in
its entirety as follows:
"TMPW shall pay Xxxxxx, as compensation for services performed, an
annual salary at the rate of $675,000 and, in addition, commencing in calendar
year 2001, Xxxxxx shall be entitled to a bonus of a dollar amount equal to a
percentage of Xxxxxx'x annual salary as follows:
Calendar Year Bonus
------------- -----
2001 40.00%
2002 45.00%
2003 50.00%
The bonus will be payable if and only if Xxxxxx and/or the Company
attain such goals during the calendar year in question as determined by mutual
agreement of Xxxxxx and the Chief Executive Officer. Any such bonus shall be
payable in a single lump sum not more than ninety (90) days after the end of the
calendar year with respect to which the bonus is awarded. With respect to

prorated for period of less than a full calendar year. It is understood that the

3. The Employment Agreement, as amended by this Amendment Agreement, is hereby
ratified and confirmed and remains in full force and effect.
