NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained in this Amendment and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1.Amendment to the Bank Services Agreement. Section 2(a) of the Bank Services Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced, effective as of the Effective Date, with the following:

“(a)    In consideration for the Service Provider’s performance of the Services, the Service Recipient shall pay to the Service Provider an annual fee in the amount set forth on Schedule B (the “Service Fee”) for each calendar year during the term of this Agreement, payable in equal monthly installments within the first five days of each calendar month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that this Agreement is terminated for any reason during any calendar year, or all of the Services for the Service Recipient is terminated during any calendar year prior to the termination of this Agreement, then the Service Recipient shall only pay to the Service Provider with respect to such calendar year the pro rata portion of the Service Fee otherwise payable with respect to such calendar year based upon the number of days during such calendar year that elapsed prior to the date of the termination of this Agreement or termination of the Services, as the case may be.”

2.Miscellaneous.




    (a)    Effect of Amendment. Each of the Service Provider and the Service Recipient hereby agree and acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Amendment, the Bank Services Agreement remains in full force and effect and has not been modified or amended in any respect, it being the intention of each of the Service Provider and the Service Recipient that this Amendment and the Bank Services Agreement be read, construed and interpreted as one and the same instrument.
