Administrator, to whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan may be allocated or delegated, against any reasonable cost or expense (including counsel fees) or
liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the approval of the Board) arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such person's own
fraud, bad faith or gross negligence.

This

the choice of law principles thereof.

The
Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time;provided, however, that unless the written consent
of a Participant is obtained, no such amendment or termination shall adversely affect any existing rights of such Participant.
