This AMENDMENT TO STOCK OPTION AGREEMENTS (the “Amendment”) is entered into as of the 10th day of November, 2004, by and between INDEX DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Jonathan Steinberg (the “Employee”).

WHEREAS, the Company and Employee have entered into Stock Option Agreements dated (i) January 3, 2001, with respect to options to purchase 420,000 shares of the authorized but unissued common stock, $.01 par value, of the Company (“Common Stock”) (the “2001 Option Agreement”), (ii) April 3, 2002, with respect to options to purchase 3,604,292 shares of Common Stock (the “2002 Option Agreement”), and (iii) March 17, 2004, with respect to options to purchase 3,000,0000 shares of Common Stock (the “2004 Option Agreement” and, together with the 2001 Option Agreement and the 2002 Option Agreement, the “Option Agreements”); and

WHEREAS, the Company and certain investors are concurrently herewith entering into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company will issue shares of Common Stock to such investors in consideration of $9,000,000; and

WHEREAS, it is a condition to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement that, among other things, (i) Employee must join in the representations and warranties made by the Company in the Securities Purchase Agreement and in certain circumstances must indemnify the investors for a breach of such representations and warranties, (ii) Employee must deposit all of the shares of Common Stock owned by him, including shares issuable upon exercise of the options represented by the Option Agreements, into escrow and transfer to the investors all or some of such shares if a valid indemnification claim is made against Employee, (iii) Employee must enter into a Stockholders’ Agreement with the investors that, among other things, restricts Employee’s ability to transfer all shares of Common Stock owned by him, and (iv) Employee must enter into an Employment Agreement with the Company that obligates him to be employed by the Company for a three-year period (“Employment Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Company and Employee desire to amend certain provisions of the Option Agreements to make certain provisions of the Option Agreements consistent with the provisions of the Employment Agreement, to recognize that the options granted under the 2002 Option Agreement and the 2004 Option Agreements were granted in lieu of Employee receiving cash compensation for his services to the Company and to otherwise provide certain benefits to the Employee as set forth herein;

Shares of Common Stock used for this purpose shall be valued at the Fair Market Value as defined in each of the respective Plans.
