(e)    Amended and Restated Employment Agreements of Executive Officers

Effective December 31, 2012, the Company amended and restated the employment agreements with each of its executive officers.  The primary purposes of the amendments were to provide for consistency among all such employment agreements with respect to the definition of termination for “Cause”, to provide consistency among all such employment agreements with respect to the provisions allowing an executive to terminate his employment for “Good Reason”, to provide in all such employment agreements that the Company’s terminating the employment of an executive due to non-renewal of the then current term would constitute termination without “Cause” and would entitle the executive to receive the Severance Pay provided for in the employment agreements, and to update the Section 409A compliance provisions contained in the employment agreements.    The amendments also reflect current annual base salary information and titles.
