         (a) The first sentence of Section 3 is deleted and replaced with the
         following two sentences: "As of the Effective Date and continuing

         Vice President, Chief Administrative Officer and General Counsel of the

         Counsel duties" therein.

         2. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, and all of which taken

binding and effective as to all the Parties.

         3. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon each of the
Parties hereto, and upon their respective successors and assigns, and shall
inure to the benefit of each of the Parties hereto, and their respective
successors and assigns. Subject to the foregoing sentence, no person not a Party
hereto shall have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement.
