Item 1.01      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Effective October 19, 2005, the employment agreement between Mr. Leo S. Ullman and Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc. (the “Company”) had been amended to provide that the term of employment was four years ending October 1, 2007, with the term of employment automatically extended for one year on each October 1 thereafter unless either Mr. Ullman or the Company elected not to extend the term of employment. The intention of the parties at the time of this amendment was that Mr. Ullman’s term of employment would always be for four years. To reflect the correct intention, on May 1, 2007, the Company and Mr. Ullman entered into an amendment to his employment agreement to provide that the term of employment would always be four years, unless either Mr. Ullman or the Company elect not to extend the term of employment.

The foregoing description is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1 that is filed herewith.
