To the extent that any terms of this Amendment conflict with any terms of the Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall control. No right or license of any kind is granted to Licensee except as expressly provided in the Agreement and this Amendment.

5.	MSCI may terminate this Amendment with respect to the Index in the event that Licensee does not list a Fund based on the Index on an exchange within 1 year of the date of this Amendment.
