You will perform such services as requested from time to time by the President or Chief Executive Officer, Universal Orlando, or their duly authorized representative. Your employment as Senior Vice President/General Manager, Resort Revenue Operations, will commence on December 4, 2007, it being understood that the President or Chief Executive Officer, Universal Orlando, or their duly authorized officers may assign you to render your services in different occupational areas within Universal Orlando, in their sole discretion.

3.	Results and Proceeds:

As your employer, UO shall own all rights in and to the results and proceeds connected with or arising out of, directly and indirectly, your services hereunder.

In the event the Company exercises its right to renew your employment under the option provided above, you shall be notified in writing not less than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration date of the then current term. In the event the Company does not elect to continue your employment at the expiration of any term, no special severance consideration is provided. Rather, standard Company practice (if any) shall apply.

You agree and acknowledge that UO has no obligation to renew this Agreement or to continue your employment after expiration of the term hereunder, and you expressly acknowledge that no promises or understandings to the contrary have been made or reached.
