| 4. | Effect of the Amendment. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Plan shall remain in full force and effect. Any reference to the Plan contained in any notice, request or other document executed concurrently with or after the Amendment Effective Date shall be deemed to include this Amendment, unless the context shall otherwise require. |
