RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the parties previously entered into a Services Agreement dated June 24, 2009, as amended on August 12, 2010 (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which Nile engaged Consultant to perform certain Services as described in the Agreement for a term of one year, subject to extension upon the mutual agreement of the parties; and
WHEREAS, Nile and Consultant each desire to continue to the engagement of Consultant by Nile, but with a reduced level of services and compensation, as described below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Compensation. As of the Effective Date, Section 2.1 shall be amended and restated in its entirety, as follows:
| |
“2.1
|
To pay CONSULTANT an amount equal to Thirty-One Thousand Seven Hundred Two Dollars ($31,702.00) per month during the Term. Such monthly compensation rate is based upon a fixed fee billing rate by level for personnel multiplied by the number of hours for each level as estimated by the parties to be necessary to perform the Services. To the extent NILE requests Services that will require hours or personnel in excess of such budget in a given month, CONSULTANT reserves the right to invoice NILE for such excess at CONSULTANT’s hourly rates in effect on the date hereof, in accordance with the schedule attached hereto as Appendix A. Undisputed payments will be made by NILE within 30 days from NILE’s receipt of CONSULTANT’s invoice. Invoices will contain such detail as NILE may reasonably require and will be payable in U.S. Dollars.”

2. Miscellaneous. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement. Except as amended or modified by this Amendment, the parties hereby confirm that all other terms and provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
