Wilmette, IL 60091

Dear Vince:

On behalf of VISICU, Inc., I am pleased to present this revised offer for you to take the position of VISICU’S Chief Financial Officer reporting to Frank Sample, Chairman & CEO.

Your base salary will be $8,500.00 semi-monthly ($204,000.00 if annualized) less payroll deductions and all required withholdings. This is a Senior Vice President level position and is eligible for an annual bonus of up to 40% of your annual salary based upon company performance, as well as your individual performance. Any bonus payment in 2005 will be pro-rated based upon your hire date.

Relocation:

To help facilitate your move to Baltimore, VISICU will provide you with relocation assistance. The terms of that assistance are outlined in the attached relocation agreement (Attachment A).

Stock Options:

Subject to formal approval by the Board of Directors, you will receive a grant of 325,000 options to purchase VISICU Common Stock at a strike price of $1.80. This is equivalent to 1.2% of the fully diluted shares of the company. These options vest over a period of four years.

Should there be a change of control, the vesting of these options will accelerate to be 100% vested upon the occurrence of the event.

Should you be terminated without cause within 36 months of your hire date, your vesting will continue for another 12 months from your last day of work. You will have an additional 12 months from the final vesting date to exercise these options. This does not apply should you voluntarily terminate your employment.

The definition of “cause” for this document is the willful or intentional act of the employee that has the effect of injuring the business prospects of the Company or its affiliates in any material respect; use of illegal drugs by the employee or repeated drunkenness; conviction of the employee for the commission of a felony involving moral turpitude; or the commission by the employee of a material act of fraud or embezzlement against the Company.

Severance:

You are also eligible for the management severance policy which provides for six months of severance pay along with pro-rated annual bonus amount should you be terminated without cause. This policy eliminates the 12 month employment requirement for Vice Presidents and above.

Other Benefits:

After certain eligibility requirements have been met, you will be eligible to participate in our employee benefit program that includes health, vision, dental, life and disability insurance, 401(k) plan and paid leave.

As a condition of your employment, you are required to sign the attached Proprietary Information Agreement. If you have any questions about the language, please feel free to call me. We wish to impress upon you that you are not to bring with you any conf
