agreements between themselves in connection therewith;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agree as follows:

(collectively, the "AGREEMENT")) and the transactions and other matters
contemplated thereby or relating thereto, each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees (a) to be subject to the jurisdiction of
the courts of the State of Delaware and of the federal courts sitting in the
State of Delaware, and (b)(i) to the extent such party is not otherwise subject
to service of process in the State of Delaware, to appoint and maintain an agent
in the State of Delaware as such party's agent for acceptance of legal process,
and (ii) that service of process may also be made on such party by prepaid
certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated by the United States

obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in
accordance with such laws.
3. This Addendum may be executed in two or more counterparts (and by the
different parties on separate counterparts), each of which shall be an original,
but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
4. As modified hereby, the Original Agreement is hereby ratified,
approved and confirmed in every respect, and shall remain in full force and
effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Addendum to be duly
executed by their respective officers as of the day and year first above
