The amendment to the Employment Agreement with Mr. David Portnoy (the "David Portnoy Amendment") and the amendment to the Employment Agreement with Mr. Mark Portnoy (the "Mark Portnoy Amendment") amend the Employment Agreements to clarify that the determination of whether the "Threshold", "Target", and "Stretch" performance standards have been achieved with respect to (i) bonuses to be paid under Section 3(b) of the Employment Agreements; and (ii) the grant of the equity awards described in Section 3 (c)(ii) of the Employment Agreements, shall be made without regard to any accounting impact of such awards on the Company's financial statements. The David Portnoy Amendment to the Employment Agreements also revises Section 3(c)(ii) to correct the Company's fiscal year end date.
