**WHEREAS**, subject to certain limited exceptions, Section 27 of the Agreement provides that the Company, by action of the Board of Directors, may from time to time and in the sole and absolute discretion of the Board of Directors, and the Rights Agent shall, if the Company so directs, supplement or amend this Agreement without the approval of any holders of Rights;

Nothing in this Section 34 nor this Agreement, including any provision requiring or permitting the Board to take (or refrain from taking) any action or making any determination, shall modify the fiduciary duties of the directors to the Company and its stockholders, nor eliminate or otherwise limit the liability of the directors for breaches of fiduciary duty under applicable law.
