COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
Directors who are also officers of the Company do not receive any fee or
remuneration for services as members of the Insignia Board. During fiscal 1999,
each of Insignia's directors who is not an employee of Insignia received a fee
of $25,000 per year for serving as a director, which fee has been increased to
$50,000 per year for fiscal 2000. Each director who is not a full-time employee
of Insignia is eligible to participate in the Insignia's 1998 Stock Incentive
Plan, which provides for each non-employee director to receive at the time of
his initial election an option to purchase 20,000 shares of Common Stock, a
portion of which is exercisable the year after the grant, and to receive an
additional option each year thereafter to purchase 2,000 shares, in each case,
at the then fair market value of the Common Stock. In January 2000, each
director who is not an employee of Insignia received from Insignia (i) a warrant
to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock at the then fair market value of the
Common Stock, and (ii) an Equity Grant (as defined below) of a 0.25% interest in
Insignia's aggregate equity interests in all New Operating Entities (as defined
below) and New Investment Entities (as defined below) (see "Compensation
Relating to Insignia's Investment in Internet Initiatives" below for a
description of the Equity Grant program).
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
Following is a description of employment agreements between Insignia and
each the Named Executives Officers.
Andrew L. Farkas
Andrew L. Farkas is employed by Insignia pursuant to an employment
agreement (the "Farkas Employment Agreement") which provides for him to serve as
Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Insignia until
September 21, 2001 (the "Expiration Date"), or such earlier date as provided
therein. The Farkas Employment Agreement is currently under review and in the
process of being amended. The Farkas Employment Agreement provides that Mr.
Farkas receive an annual salary of $750,000 (the "Base Salary"), subject to
such discretionary increases as may be determined by Insignia's Board of
Directors (the "Insignia Board") and a bonus to be determined annually by the
Insignia Board. Mr. Farkas also is entitled to certain perquisites. Mr. Farkas
has agreed that for one year after the termination of the Farkas Employment
Agreement, he will not solicit business from any of Insignia's customers or
clients with whom he has had "material contact" (as defined in the Farkas
Employment Agreement) during the twelve month period preceding the date of
cessation of his employment with Insignia, and he will neither solicit employees
of Insignia to work for any direct competitor of Insignia nor purchase any
limited partner units of partnerships controlled directly or indirectly by
Insignia for two years after the termination of the Farkas Employment Agreement.
Mr. Farkas' employment will be terminated in the event that Mr. Farkas is
disabled during his employment with Insignia, whereupon Insignia will pay 75% of
his Base Salary for a period of time equal to twice the remaining term under the
Farkas Employment Agreement immediately prior to his termination (but not less
than four years). If Mr. Farkas dies during the term of the Farkas Employment
Agreement, Insignia will pay to his estate his Base Salary through the
Expiration Date. If Mr. Farkas is terminated without cause and such termination
is not in connection with a Significant Transaction (as defined below), Insignia
will pay his Base Salary through the Expiration Date. In addition, if Mr. Farkas
dies, is disabled or is terminated without cause during the term of the Farkas
Employment Agreement, Insignia will continue to pay all perquisites to which Mr.
Farkas is entitled and will pay all bonuses to be paid upon the occurrence of a
Significant Transaction (as defined below) or a Material Asset Disposition
<PAGE>
(as defined below), to Mr. Farkas or his estate if the Significant Transaction
or the Material Asset Disposition giving rise to such payment occurs, or a
definitive agreement regarding such event has been executed, before or within
180 days after his death or disability or, in the case of a termination without
cause, on or before the Expiration Date.
The Farkas Employment Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of any
one of several events or transactions involving Insignia set forth in the Farkas
Employment Agreement (each, a "Significant Transaction"), including, but not
limited to, any change of control (as defined in the Farkas Employment
Agreement) of Insignia, Insignia is required to pay to Mr. Farkas an amount
equal to 1.0% of the total equity market capitalization of Insignia on the date
the Significant Transaction occurs. Upon the occurrence of a Significant
Transaction and/or upon termination without cause, all options, warrants and
restricted stock of Insignia granted to Mr. Farkas will vest immediately and be
exercisable. The Farkas Employment Agreement also provides that in the event
that Insignia enters into a transaction resulting in (i) a majority of the
equity interest in Insignia being beneficially owned by a person or persons who
is not an affiliate of Insignia, or (ii) the spin-off, sale or other disposition
to a third party of one or more of Insignia's subsidiaries, divisions or
operating businesses (each, a "Material Asset Disposition"), Insignia will pay
to Mr. Farkas a cash bonus equal to 1.0% of the consideration received by
Insignia and its stockholders as a result of such Material Asset Disposition.
The Merger fell within the definition of a Material Asset Disposition and,
therefore, Insignia paid Mr. Farkas $5,049,000 after the consummation of the
Merger.
To the extent Mr. Farkas would be subject to the excise tax under Section
4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), on amounts
or benefits to be received from Insignia required to be included in the
calculation of parachute payments for purposes of Sections 280G and 4999 of the
Code, the amounts of any such payments will be automatically reduced to an
amount one dollar less than an amount that would subject Mr. Farkas to the
excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, provided that the automatic reduction
would apply only if the reduced payments received by Mr. Farkas (after taking
into account further reductions for applicable taxes) would be greater than his
unreduced payments, after applicable taxes.
Stephen B. Siegel
<PAGE>
Insignia, Insignia/ESG and Stephen B. Siegel are parties to an employment
agreement (the "Siegel Employment Agreement"), which expires on December 31,
2002, subject to earlier termination or extension as provided for in the
Agreement. The Siegel Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Siegel shall serve
as President of Insignia and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
Insignia/ESG, among other duties. Under the Siegel Employment Agreement, Mr.
Siegel receives (i) a base annual salary of $1,000,000, (ii) 30% of all
promotional commission revenues earned, received and retained by Insignia/ESG in
respect of transactions as to which Mr. Siegel has rendered services recognized
by Insignia/ESG, and (iii) 50% of all net commissions in respect of agency
transactions as to which Mr. Siegel has rendered services recognized by
Insignia/ESG. The Siegel Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Siegel will
receive, for each year or part thereof during the employment term, an amount (up
to a maximum of $400,000 annually) equal to 0.6% of the gross commissions
earned, received and retained by Insignia/ESG, but only to the extent that
Insignia/ESG and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries meet or exceed its annual
Net EBITDA (as defined below) budget, as established by Insignia's Compensation
Committee, after reduction for all bonus compensation paid to employees of
Insignia/ESG (including the imputed bonus of Mr. Siegel), all Insignia/ESG
overhead allocations and all other compensation paid to Mr. Siegel, which annual
Net EBITDA budget will be increased by Insignia's Compensation Committee for
each subsequent year by an amount of no more than 10% of the annual Net EBITDA
budget for the immediately preceding year. "Net EBITDA" means earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, computed in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied. The Siegel
Employment Agreement further provides that Mr. Siegel will receive for each year
an annual bonus of 10%, or such lesser percentage as Insignia's Compensation
Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine, of the increase
in annual Net EBITDA, reduced by all bonus compensation paid to the employees of
Insignia/ESG (including the imputed bonus of Mr. Siegel), all Insignia/ESG
overhead allocations and all compensation paid to Mr. Siegel over the annual Net
EBITDA for the immediately preceding year.
In addition, upon the consummation of a transaction resulting in a change
in the ownership of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock and a change in the majority of the Insignia Board, Mr. Siegel is entitled
to receive a payment in the amount of 0.5% of the consideration received by
Insignia and its stockholders in such transaction (excluding the assumption of
liabilities), which payment is required to be made upon the earlier of the
termination of Mr. Siegel's employment with Insignia, other than for cause or
voluntary termination, or the expiration of the term of the Siegel Employment
Agreement.
Former Parent made a loan to Mr. Siegel in the amount of $1,000,000. The
loan, which was assumed by Insignia in connection with the Spin-Off, is being
forgiven ratably over a three-year period beginning July 1, 1998 provided that
Mr. Siegel remains employed by Insignia and is not in material breach of the
Siegel Employment Agreement. In addition, Insignia/ESG has purchased, at
Insignia/ESG's expense, term life insurance on the life of Mr. Siegel with a
death benefit of $5,000,000, the beneficiaries of which are designated by Mr.
Siegel.
In September 1999, Insignia made a loan to Mr. Siegel in the amount of
$500,000. The terms of the loan are described below (see "Certain Relations and
Related Transactions").
The Siegel Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Siegel will not compete
with either Insignia or Insignia/ESG for two years after the termination of the
Siegel Employment Agreement. Upon Mr. Siegel's death, Insignia or Insignia/ESG
is required to pay Mr. Siegel's estate $1,000,000 per annum during the remaining
term of the Siegel Employment Agreement, not to exceed one year. If Mr. Siegel
is terminated for cause (as defined in the Siegel Employment Agreement),
Insignia and Insignia/ESG are required to pay Mr. Siegel his base salary, as in
effect, up to and including the date on which the termination occurred. If Mr.
Siegel is terminated without cause, Mr. Siegel may elect to either observe the
non-compete agreement and receive the compensation provided for in the Siegel
Employment Agreement until December 31, 2002 or accept other employment that
violates the non-compete provision and receive $1,000,000 per year until
December 31, 2002, less the aggregate compensation payable to him for such new
employment.
Pursuant to the Siegel Employment Agreement, on September 21, 1998 Mr.
Siegel received a grant of options to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock.
In addition, Insignia has made a loan to Mr. Siegel in the amount of $999,999 to
purchase shares of Common Stock which loan is secured by such shares purchased
(see "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions").

termination without cause, or due to Messrs. Garrison's or Uretta's death or
disability, all options and warrants granted to Messrs. Garrison or Uretta, as
applicable, will immediately vest and be exercisable.
<PAGE>
Upon the occurrence of a Significant Transaction, Messrs. Garrison and
Uretta each may elect to convert his Executive Employment Agreement into a
consulting agreement with substantially the same terms and conditions, except
that the consulting services provided by each of Messrs. Garrison and Uretta
shall be provided to Insignia at reasonable times convenient to each of them on
no less than five business days' notice. The Executive Employment Agreements
also provide that upon the occurrence of a Material Asset Disposition, Insignia
is required to pay each of Messrs. Garrison and Uretta a cash bonus equal to
0.5% (or 0.25% if the Executive Employment Agreements are converted to
consulting agreements) of the consideration received by Insignia and its
stockholders as a result of such Material Asset Disposition.
To the extent Messrs. Garrison or Uretta would be subject to the excise tax
under Section 4999 of the Code on amounts or benefits to be received from
Insignia required to be included in the calculation of parachute payments for
purposes of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, the amounts of any such payments
will be automatically reduced to an amount one dollar less than an amount that
would subject Messrs. Garrison or Uretta, as applicable, to the excise tax under
Section 4999 of the Code, provided that the automatic reduction would apply only
if the reduced payments received by Messrs. Garrison or Uretta (after taking
into account further reductions for applicable taxes) would be greater than the
unreduced payments to be received by Messrs. Garrison or Uretta, after
applicable taxes.
Edward S. Gordon
Edward S. Gordon is employed by Insignia pursuant to an employment
agreement between Insignia, Insignia/ESG and Edward S. Gordon, as amended, which
expires on June 30, 2001, subject to earlier termination or extension as
provided for in the agreement. Mr. Gordon (i) receives an annual base salary of
$1,000,000 per annum, (ii) received a one-time grant of options to purchase up
to 250,000 shares of Common Stock at $27.125 per share that vest in five equal
installments commencing on January 1, 1997, which options were assumed by
Insignia at the Spin-Off at $12.625 per share; and (iii) receives the payment of
commissions at certain rates and for certain identified transactions, each as
set forth in the agreement. The agreement also provides for an annual bonus
payment for each year or part thereof which is subject to a bonus plan (the
"Gordon Bonus Plan"). The Gordon Bonus Plan provides for an annual bonus for
each year (or part thereof) during the term of the employment agreement in an
amount equal to 0.75% of the gross revenues of Insignia/ESG's tri-state region
(meaning, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut) for such year (or part thereof),
if Insignia/ESG's EBITDA for the tri-state region, after adjustment for any
bonus payable under the Gordon Bonus Plan with respect to such year (or part
thereof), is not less than the Target Amount (as defined below) for such year
(or pro rata portion for partial years); provided, however, that in the event
Insignia/ ESG's EBITDA for the tri-state region as so calculated is less than
the Target Amount (or pro rata portion for partial years), the amount of such
bonus shall be reduced by the amount of such deficiency. With respect to any
year "Target Amount" is defined as Insignia/ESG's budgeted EBITDA for the
tri-state region for such year as determined by the Compensation Committee prior
to the commencement of such year, provided, however, that budgeted EBITDA for
the tri-state region for any year shall not be more than 110% of the budgeted
EBITDA for the tri-state region for the immediately preceding year, and provided
further, that the Target Amount may be increased or decreased from time to time
if the Compensation Committee reasonably determined that anticipated increases
or decreases in Insignia/ESG's EBITDA for the tri-state region must be reflected
as a result of any acquisitions or dispositions, respectively, by Insignia/ESG.
Mr. Gordon has agreed not to compete with either Insignia or Insignia/ESG
for five years after the termination of the agreement. As compensation
therefore, Mr. Gordon received a $1,000,000 advance payment on July 1, 1996 to
be allocated over five years.
If Mr. Gordon is terminated for cause (as defined in the agreement),
Insignia/ESG shall pay Mr. Gordon his base salary, as in effect, up to and
including the date on which the termination occurred. Upon termination without
cause, Insignia/ESG shall pay Mr. Gordon $1,200,000 per year until June 30,
2001. Upon termination due to death, Insignia/ESG shall pay Mr. Gordon's estate
$1,200,000 per annum during the remaining term of the agreement, not to exceed
two years.

COMPENSATION RELATING TO INSIGNIA'S EQUITY INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE
Insignia operates an equity investment program which identifies investment
opportunities for select clients and invests along side those clients in the
ownership of qualifying properties and related real estate assets. Certain
employees of Insignia, including certain executives, receive incentive awards
consisting of equity interests in limited partnerships, limited liability
companies or a private real estate investment trust which own or invest in real
property, debt secured by real estate or other real estate-related assets and in
which Insignia has invested ("Membership Interests"). Such Membership Interests
are subject to performance and vesting provisions established by Insignia and,
once vested, entitle the holder to receive a portion of the proceeds remaining
after Insignia has received a return of its invested capital and a preferred
return thereon, if any, paid or distributed upon liquidation of the entities.
During fiscal 1999 each of the Named Executive Officers were granted Membership
Interests in connection with the equity investment program (the aggregate value
of such Membership Interests is included in the Summary Compensation Table). In
addition, in fiscal 1999 the Named Executive Officers received payments
resulting from dispositions of, and distributions made with respect to,
Membership Interests, which payments are disclosed in the notes to the Executive
Summary Compensation Table.
COMPENSATION RELATING TO INSIGNIA'S EQUITY INVESTMENTS IN INTERNET INITIATIVES
The Insignia Board has authorized Mr. Farkas to make restricted grants
("Equity Grants"), at any time and from time to time, to one or more members of
management or other key employees of the Company or its subsidiaries, including
himself, of portions of Insignia's equity interests in new entities established
to invest in or operate companies or business ventures relating to the Internet
and other businesses outside of the scope of the Company's traditional lines of
business. An Equity Grant will constitute a grant of a portion of the Company's
equity interest in either a New Investment Entity or a New Operating Entity. A
"New Investment Entity" is a special purpose entity initially capitalized by
Insignia or one or more of its subsidiaries on or after January 1, 2000 for the
primary purpose of (i) making and/or holding a minority, non-controlling
investment by the Company in securities of one or more companies or business
ventures not directly or indirectly controlled by the Company, or (ii) serving
as a managing general partner (or in a similar capacity) of an entity that
raises third-party capital to be invested in securities of businesses not
directly or indirectly controlled by the Company. A "New Operating Entity" is
any operating entity initially capitalized by the Company or one or more of its
subsidiaries on or after January 1, 2000 for the primary purpose of engaging in
a line of business which is outside the scope of the traditional lines of
business engaged in by the Company and its subsidiaries prior to June 1999,
which non-traditional businesses include all Internet-oriented lines of
business.
Mr. Farkas is authorized to make Equity Grants to members of management and
key employees of up to 25% in the aggregate of Insignia's equity interests in
each New Investment Entity and up to 30% in the aggregate of Insignia's equity
interest in each New Operating Entity, provided that (i) the terms of each such
Equity Grant are set forth in a written document signed by the Company and the
recipient of such Equity Grant, and (ii) with respect to any such award granted
to Mr. Farkas or which relates to 3.0% or more of Insignia's equity interest in
such New Investment Entity, the terms of the award must comply with vesting
rules (the "Vesting Rules") specified by the Insignia Board. The Vesting Rules
provide that (a) awards will not vest more rapidly than 1/48 per month, subject
to acceleration and forfeiture provisions, (b) an award of equity in a New
Operating Entity will vest upon the occurrence of a change of control of such
entity or a qualified initial public offering, and (c) upon termination of all
employment with the Company and its subsidiaries, the entire portion of an award
which has not vested will be forfeited back to the Company, except that in the
case of termination without cause, the unvested portion of the award will
immediately be vested. No payment will be made to the holder of an Equity Grant
unless and until, (i) if the award relates to a New Investment Entity, the
Company has received a return of its invested capital and a preferred return
thereon, and (ii) if the award relates to a New Operating Entity, subject to
certain conditions, one of several specified liquidity events has occurred and
the Company has received a return of its invested capital and a preferred return
thereon. In the event that the recipient of any Equity Grant forfeits all or a
portion of such award, then the equity interests underlying such Equity Grant
may be re-granted by Mr. Farkas pursuant to a new Equity Grant to any other
then-eligible person.

DIRECTOR AFFILIATIONS
Mr. Koen, who is a director of Insignia, is a partner in the law firm Akin,
Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld LLP, which represents Insignia or certain of its
affiliates from time to time.
EMPLOYEE LOANS
Former Parent made a loan to Mr. Siegel in the amount of $1,000,000
pursuant to the terms of the Siegel Employment Agreement. The loan was assumed
by Insignia when Insignia assumed the Siegel Employment Agreement in connection
with the Spin-Off. The principal amount of the loan and interest thereon is
being forgiven ratably over a five-year period which began on July 1, 1998. The
interest rate on Mr. Siegel's loan is the same as the interest rate applicable
to funds borrowed by Insignia on its revolving credit facility, which rate was
approximately 6.5% at December 1999. As of March 31, 2000, $361,111 principal
amount of such loan remained outstanding. In November 1998, Insignia made a
separate loan, pursuant to the Insignia Financial Group, Inc. 1998 Supplemental
Stock Purchase and Loan Program (the "Supplemental Stock Purchase and Loan
Program"), of $999,999 to Mr. Siegel to purchase shares of Common Stock, which
loan is secured by such shares. Mr. Siegel has agreed to repay the principal
amount of the loan and interest thereon (at a rate of 7.5% per annum) in 40
equal quarterly installments commencing on March 31, 1999 and ending on December
31, 2008. As of March 31, 2000, $911,703 principal amount of such loan remained
outstanding.
On January 1, 1999, Insignia/ESG made a loan in the amount of $500,000 to
Mr. Siegel. The interest rate on Mr. Siegel's loan is the same as the interest
rate applicable to funds borrowed by Insignia on its revolving credit facility,
which rate was approximately 6.5% at December 1999. At March 31, 2000, $291,666
of the principal amount of such loan remained outstanding. The loan will become
due upon the earlier of (i) Mr. Siegel's voluntary termination of his employment
with Insignia/ESG, (ii) the termination of Mr. Siegel's employment with
Insignia/ESG for cause or (iii) April 1, 2002. Insignia/ESG will forgive
$166,667 of the principal amount of the loan on an annual basis to the extent
that Insignia/ESG meets or exceeds its annual budgeted Net EBITDA, as
established by Insignia/ESG and the Insignia Board, after reduction for all
bonus compensation and certain other items. In the event that the applicable
$166,667 is not forgiven in a particular year because Insignia's actual Net
EBITDA is less than budgeted Net EBITDA (a "Shortfall"), and in a subsequent
year Insignia/ESG exceeds its budgeted Net EDITDA (a "Surplus"), then the
unforgiven amount from the prior year shall be forgiven if the Surplus exceeds
the prior year's Shortfall. Any outstanding principal balance and accrued
interest on the loan will be forgiven upon the death or disability of Mr.
Siegel.
Pursuant to the Supplemental Stock Purchase and Loan Program, Insignia made
a loan in the amount of $100,000 to Andrew J.M. Huntley, a director and a member
of the Office of the Chairman of Insignia, to purchase shares of Common Stock,
which loan is secured by such shares. Mr. Huntley has agreed to repay the
principal amount of the loan and interest thereon (at a rate of 7.5% per annum)
in 40 equal quarterly installments commencing on March 31, 1999 and ending on
December 31, 2008. As of March 31, 2000, $91,162 of the principal amount of such
loan remained outstanding.
Pursuant to the Supplemental Stock Purchase and Loan Program, Insignia made
a loan in the amount of $193,125 to Jeffrey P. Cohen, Executive Vice President
of Insignia, to purchase shares of Common Stock, which loan is secured by such
shares. Mr. Cohen has agreed to repay the principal amount of the loan and
interest thereon (at a rate of 7.5% per annum) in 40 equal quarterly
installments commencing on March 31, 1999 and ending on December 31, 2008. As of
March 31, 2000, $176,072.27 of the principal amount of such loan remained
outstanding.

AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
This AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT, dated as of July 1, 1999 (this
"Amendment"), is made by and among Insignia/ESG, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), and Edward S. Gordon ("Executive").
WHEREAS, Executive is presently employed by the Company pursuant to an
Employment Agreement by and among Insignia Financial Group, Inc., the Company
(which is the successor in interest to all of the rights and obligations under
the Agreement, as amended, of Insignia/Edward S. Gordon Co., Inc., which was
formerly known as Insignia Buyer Corporation), and Executive, dated as of June
17, 1996 (the "Employment Agreement"), as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto,
dated April 1, 1997 ("Amendment No. 1"); and
WHEREAS, Executive and the Company desire to amend the Agreement as
hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, Executive and Company
agree as follows:
1. DEFINED TERMS.
(a) All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreement.
(b) All references in the Agreement to the "Parent Company" are amended
to refer to Insignia Financial Group, Inc., which entity had previously been
known as Insignia/ESG Holdings, Inc.
(c) All references in the Agreement to the "Company" are amended to
refer to Insignia/ESG, Inc., except for that reference to the "Company" which
appears in Section 1 of the Agreement to describe the Asset and Stock Purchase
Agreement, dated June 17, 1996.
2. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 2(A). The first sentence of Section 2(a) of the
Agreement is replaced with the following sentence: "During the Employment
Period, Executive shall serve in the Office of the Chairman of the Parent
Company."
3. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 3(B)(I).
(a) The reference in Section 3(b)(i) to the "Company's gross revenues"
is amended to refer to the "gross revenues of the Company's Tri-State Region."
(b) The reference in Section 3(b)(i) to the "Company's earnings" is
amended to refer to the "earnings of the Company's Tri-State Region."
<PAGE>
(c) All references in Section 3(b)(i) to "EBITDA" and the "Company's
EBITDA" are amended to refer to "EBITDA for the Company's Tri-State Region."
4. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 3(D). Section 3(d) shall be amended to read, in its
entirety, as follows:
"(D) COMMISSIONS. For all transactions in which the commission is
earned on or after July 1, 1999 and in which Executive has a commission
participation, Executive shall receive a commission calculated by
multiplying the gross billings of the subject transaction by Executive's
commission participation and then multiplying the resulting product by
thirty (30%) percent. (For example, for a transaction in which the
commission is earned on or after July 1, 1999, and in which the gross
billings were $600,000 and Executive had a commission participation of 10%,
Executive would receive a commission in the amount of $18,000 (600,000 x
10% = $60,000; $60,000 x 30% = $18,000)). The commission participation of
Executive shall be determined by mutual agreement of Executive and the
Company broker(s) participating in the subject transaction. In the event a
mutual agreement cannot be reached, the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company shall determine Executive's commission participation, and that
determination shall be final and binding on Executive. Nothing herein shall
be deemed to require the Chief Executive Officer to make any determination
which is inconsistent with the Company's contractual obligations to the
broker(s) participating in the subject transaction. For purposes of this
provision the Company's determination of when a commission is earned shall
be final and binding. Expenses of Executive related to a transaction shall
be deducted from Executive's allocated portion of the commission (i.e.,
that amount determined by multiplying the gross billings of the subject
transaction by Executive's commission participation) for that transaction."
5. COUNTERPARTS. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
6. GOVERNING LAW. This Amendment and the Agreement, as amended by Amendment
No. 1, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, without reference to the conflict of law provisions thereof.
7. NOTICES. All notices to the Company pursuant to the Agreement, as
amended by Amendment No. 1, shall be forwarded to:

8. AFFIRMATION. Except as amended hereby, the Agreement, as amended by
Amendment No. 1, shall remain in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Amendment as of the
date first above written.
