The Employment Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Registrant’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 8, 2008. The principal terms of the Amendment are as follows:

1. Under the Employment Agreement, the Registrant granted Mr. Frakes options to purchase (a) 249,419 time vesting options with an exercise price of $20.05 per share and (b) 249,419 performance vesting options with an exercise price of $20.05 per share. The Amendment modifies the exercise price so that Mr. Frakes now has options to purchase (a) 249,419 time vesting options with an exercise price of $11.90 per share and (b) 249,419 performance vesting options with an exercise price of $11.90.

2. Under the Employment Agreement, 25% of the time vesting options vested on each of December 31, 2008, December 31, 2009, December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2011. The Amendment modifies the vesting schedule as follows: 25% on each of December 31, 2008, December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. The other terms related to the time vesting options remain unchanged.

The Amendment modifies the vesting schedule as follows: 25% on each of December 31, 2008, December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. The other terms related to the performance vesting options, including the determination as to how the provisionally vested options will be evaluated to determine if they conclusively vest, remain unchanged.
