This letter

IASG shall be merged with Tara and become a wholly owned subsidiary

are scheduled to close prior to May 31, 2007 or such other date as
may be agreed to by the parties to the Transaction Agreement (the
“Closing Date”). This Agreement shall be effective only
upon the completion on the Closing Date of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, and if such transactions
are not consummated, this Agreement shall be void ab
initio and without any force or effect. In consideration of
IASG’s obligations under this Agreement, in the event that
this Agreement becomes effective as provided hereunder, you hereby
irrevocably waive any right of payment under the agreement between
you and IASG dated November 22, 2006 (“Existing Employment
Agreement”).
2. Term of
Employment . Your employment with IASG pursuant to this
Agreement shall commence on the Closing Date and shall end on the

perform the functions you performed for IASG prior to the Closing
Date and such other duties as are consistent with the foregoing as

4.
Compensation . In consideration of the performance by you of
the Employment Obligations, IASG will pay to you during the
Transition Period the monthly base compensation at the monthly rate
paid to you by IASG immediately prior to the Closing Date. In
addition, IASG shall pay to you a bonus in the amount of $450,000

and retirement benefits. You shall be entitled to four weeks of
paid vacation.. The extent to which unused paid time off from one
year shall be carried forward to any later year shall be governed
by IASG's paid time off policy in effect from time to time. Upon
