		12.	Except as expressly provided in this Amendment, all other provisions of the Agreement shall remain

Amendment is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their permitted assigns and nothing herein express or implied shall give or
be construed to give to any person, other than the Parties and such assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder.
