3. Except as specifically provided for in this Amendment, all of the terms and conditions of the Cooperation Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
 
4. This Amendment may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
