(b) All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of New York in the borough of Manhattan and any appellate court thereof and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts in any such Action and irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient forum or lack of jurisdiction to the maintenance of any such Action. The consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 8.06 shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of New York and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto. Each party hereto agrees that service of process upon such party in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if notice is given by overnight courier at the address set forth in Section 8.10 of this Agreement.

3.    Waiver of 4.01. The Company hereby agrees that the requirement that the Lead Purchasers be of the type of entity set forth on the signature pages to the Investment Agreement is hereby waived.

4.    Integration.

6.    Miscellaneous. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Amendment (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission in .PDF format or by facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Amendment. No modification of or amendment to this Amendment, nor any waiver of any rights under this Amendment, will be effective unless in writing signed by the duly authorized representatives of all parties hereto, and the waiver of any breach or default will not constitute a waiver of any other right hereunder or any subsequent breach or default. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York pursuant to Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law. Each party shall bear and pay its own fees, costs and expenses in connection with the negotiation, preparation and review of this Amendment.
