| 2. | Effect of this Amendment. |
| a. | On and after the date hereof, each reference in the Shareholder Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of like import referring to the Shareholder Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Shareholder Agreement as modified by this Amendment. |
| b. | Except as specifically modified by this Amendment, the Shareholder Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed. |
| c. | Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of, or operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Company under, the Shareholder Agreement. |
| 3. | Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by the internal law of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. |

Each Party irrevocably consents to the service of process outside the territorial jurisdiction of the courts referred to in this Section 5(b) in any such action or proceeding by mailing copies thereof by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to its address as specified in or pursuant to Section 5(g) of the Shareholder Agreement. However, the foregoing shall not limit the right of a Party to effect service of process on the other Party by any other legally available method.
