4.1 TERM OF AGREEMENT. The “Term” for this Agreement shall have commenced on May 1, 2011 and shall end on January 31, 2015; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, during the period from January 1, 2015 through January 31, 2015 (a) Employee shall no longer serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of Employer, and (b) Employee’s base salary shall be $1.00 per month. If a Change in Control shall have occurred during the Term of this Agreement, Sections 7 and 8 and 10 through 21 of this Agreement shall continue in effect until at least the end of the Change-in-Control Protective Period (whether or not the Term of the Agreement shall have expired for other purposes).

2.    No Further Amendment. Except as otherwise amended hereby, all terms of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
