1.6 Amendment to Section 6.5. Section 6.5 of the MPSA is hereby amended to include a new Section 6.5(i), which shall read as follows:
(i) In no event shall Buyer’s or PKI’s rights to, or defenses against, any claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under this Agreement be affected or limited in any way by the terms of that certain Deed of Novation of Contract, by and among Elekta Limited, PKI and Varex Imaging Corporation, and, for purposes of determining the rights of Varex Imaging Corporation under this sentence and under this Agreement, the release set forth in Section 2.2 of the Deed of Novation of Contract shall be disregarded.
