Exhibit 10.149
[LOGO] BANK ONE. Note Modification Agreement
This agreement is made and entered into on February 17, 2003 (the "Agreement
Date"), to be effective as of February 17, 2003 (the "Effective Date"), by and
between Xxxx Car Wash-Arizona, Inc. dba Genie Car Wash alone, and its successors
(the "Borrower") and Bank One, NA, with its main office in Chicago, IL,
successor by merger to Bank One, Texas, National Association (the "Bank").
WHEREAS, the Borrower executed a Promissory Note as evidence of indebtedness in
the original face amount of Four Million Nine Hundred Thousand and 00/100
Dollars ($4,900,000.00), dated February 17, 2000 owing by the Borrower to the
Bank, as same may have been amended or modified from time to time (the "Note"),
which Note has at all times been, and is now, continuously and without
interruption outstanding in favor of the Bank; and,
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested and the Bank has agreed that the Note be
modified to the limited extent as hereinafter set forth;
NOW THEREFORE, in mutual consideration of the agreements contained herein and
for other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:
1. ACCURACY OF RECITALS. The Borrower acknowledges the accuracy of the
Recitals stated above.
2. MODIFICATION OF NOTE.
2.1 From and after the Effective Date, a portion of the first
sentence of the Promissory Note is hereby amended to read as follows: "FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, on or before February 17, 2008 ("Maturity Date"),"
2.2 The Maturity Date (as defined in the Note) is extended to
February 17, 2008. The fourth paragraph of the Note is amended and restated to
read as follows
The principal of and all accrued but unpaid interest on this Note
shall be due and payable in monthly installments, commencing on March
17, 2000, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter,
with one final installment in the amount of the principal balance then
outstanding, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, being due
and payable on the Maturity Date. Each such payment shall be applied
first to accrued but unpaid interest and then to principal. The amount
of the initial monthly installments shall be $49,699.06 each. On March
17, 2003, the amount of the monthly installments shall be reduced to
$37,367.33. On March 17th of each year during the term of this Note
beginning in 2004 (each, an "Anniversary Date"), the amount of the
monthly installments of principal and interest thereafter due and
payable shall be adjusted to an amount sufficient to amortize the
unpaid principal balance on such Anniversary Date (after giving effect
to any payment due on such date), at the interest rate then in effect,
in equal monthly installments of principal and interest over an
assumed term which begins on such date and ends on February 17, 2015;
provided, however, that in no event shall any monthly payment be less
than the amount of accrued but unpaid interest under this Note as of
such payment due date.
2.3 Each of the Related Documents is modified to provide that it
shall be a default or an event of default thereunder if the Borrower shall fail
to comply with any of the covenants of the Borrower herein or if any
representation or warranty by the Borrower or by any guarantor herein is
materially incomplete, incorrect, or misleading as of the date hereof. As used
in this agreement, the "Related Documents" shall include the Note and all loan
agreements, credit agreements, reimbursement agreements, security agreements,
mortgages, deeds of trust, pledge agreements, assignments, guaranties, or any
other instrument or document executed in connection with the Note or in
connection with any other obligations of the Borrower to the Bank.
2.4 Each reference in the Related Documents to any of the Related
Documents shall be a reference to such document as modified herein.
3. RATIFICATION OF RELATED DOCUMENTS AND COLLATERAL. The Related Documents are
ratified and reaffirmed by the Borrower and shall remain in full force and
effect as they may be modified herein. All real or personal property described
as security in the Related Documents shall remain as security for the Note and
the obligations of the Borrower in the Related Documents.
4. BORROWER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Borrower represents and
warrants to the Bank:

Bank to effectuate the intent of this agreement.
5.2 The Borrower fully, finally, and forever releases and discharges the

Borrower submits to and accepts, for itself and in respect of its property,
