A.           The Company and the Rights Agent are parties to the Tax Asset Preservation Plan, dated as of March 1, 2016 (the “Tax Asset Preservation Plan”).

 

B.           The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to amend the Tax Asset Preservation Plan as set forth in this Amendment to cure any ambiguity related to the definition of the term “Final Expiration Date” contained in the Tax Asset Preservation Plan.
