The term “Parties” collectively refers to Licensor and Licensee.

Except as otherwise defined, all capitalized terms used in this Second Amendment have the meaning ascribed to them in the License Agreement. From and after the Second Amendment Effective date, references in the License Agreement and this Second Amendment refer to the License Agreement as modified by the terms of this Second Amendment, unless otherwise specified.

4. Except as expressly modified by this Second Amendment, all terms and conditions<br>of the License Agreement are incorporated by reference and remain in full force and effect.
