i. Amendment. Pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Agreement, the Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
a. Section 4.4(e) of the Agreement is hereby amended to amend and restate the following in its entirety:

Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 4.4(c) nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the Indemnitee seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct.

If successful, in whole or in part, the Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.
