Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

This amendment is being filed to correct the termination dates of the employment agreements entered into with Sharon K. Brayfield, David T. O’Connor and Thomas J. Morris and to provide additional information about the employment agreement with Harry J. White, Jr.  The employment agreements terminate on December 31, 2011.

On March 3, 2010, Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. (the “Registrant”) entered into written extensions of existing employment agreements (the “Employment Agreements”) with its Chief Executive Officer and certain of its Named Executive Officers as defined by Item 402(c) of Regulation S-K.  These officers are Robert E. Mead, Sharon K. Brayfield, David T. O’Connor and Thomas J. Morris.  As extended, the Employment Agreements will now terminate on December 31, 2011; except that Mr. Mead’s Employment Agreement will expire on December 31, 2010.  Each of the extensions is effective as of January 1, 2010.

On March 3, 2010, the Registrant also entered into an employment agreement with Harry J. White, Jr., the Registrant’s Chief Financial Officer.  Mr. White will be paid an annual salary of $325,000 and will receive the standard employee benefits paid by the Registrant to its executive management team.  He will also be eligible to receive such bonuses and other compensation as may be determined from time to time by the Compensation Committee.  The Employment Agreement is effective as of January 1, 2010.   The Employment Agreement with Mr. White will terminate on December 31, 2011.

The terms and conditions of Mr. White’s employment agreement and the extensions of the employment agreements with the other executive officers were approved by the Compensation Committee of the Registrant’s Board of Directors.  Each member of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is deemed to be an “independent director” under Rule 10A-3 of the Securities Exchange Act and applicable rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC.
