failure to be so qualified could have a materially adverse effect
on the business, assets or financial condition of the Additional
Guarantor or such Subsidiary. Schedule I attached hereto sets
forth all of the Subsidiaries of Additional Guarantor, the form and
jurisdiction of organization of each of the Subsidiaries, and
WDOP's, Xxxxxx'x and the other Subsidiaries of Xxxxxx'x ownership
interest therein.
(c) Partners. Xxxxxx is the sole general partner of
Additional Guarantor and owns a one percent (1%) partnership
interest in Additional Guarantor. WDN Properties, Inc. is a
limited partner of Additional Guarantor and owns a ninety-nine
percent (99%) partnership interest in Additional Guarantor;
provided, however, that after the consummation of a pending
transaction involving Drever Partners, Inc., such partnership
interests shall be reduced to not less than forty percent (40%).
(d) Authorization. The execution, delivery and
performance of this Amendment and the Additional Guaranty and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (i) are within the
authority of Borrower and Guarantors, (ii) have been duly
authorized by all necessary proceedings on the part of such
Persons, (iii) do not and will not conflict with or result in any
breach or contravention of any provision of law, statute, rule or
regulation to which any of such Persons is subject or any judgment,
order, writ, injunction, license or permit applicable to such
Persons, (iv) do not and will not conflict with or constitute a
default (whether with the passage of time or the giving of notice,
or both) under any provision of the partnership agreement or
certificate, certificate of formation, operating agreement,
articles of incorporation or other charter documents or bylaws of,
or any mortgage, indenture, agreement, contract or other instrument
binding upon, any of such Persons or any of its properties or to
which any of such Persons is subject, and (v) do not and will not
result in or require the imposition of any lien or other
encumbrance on any of the properties, assets or fights of such
Persons.
(e) Enforceability. The execution and delivery of this
Amendment and the Additional Guaranty are valid and legally binding
obligations of Borrower and Guarantors enforceable in accordance
with the respective terms and provisions hereof and thereof, except
as enforceability is limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting
generally the enforcement of creditors' rights and except to the
extent that availability of the remedy of specific performance or
injunctive relief is subject to the discretion of the court before
which any proceeding therefor may be brought.
(f) Approvals. The execution, delivery and performance
of this Amendment and the Additional Guaranty and the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby do not require the approval or
consent of any Person or the authorization, consent, approval of or
any license or permit issued by, or any filing or registration
with, or the giving of any notice to, any court, department, board,
commission or other governmental agency or authority other than
those already obtained.
(g) No Fraudulent Intent. Neither the execution and
delivery of this Amendment nor the Additional Guaranty nor the
performance of any actions required hereunder or any of the Loan
Documents (including without limitation the Additional Guaranty) is

result of any actual intent by any of such Persons to hinder, delay
or defraud any entity to which any of such Persons is now or will
hereafter become indebted.
(h) Transaction in Best Interests of Borrower;
Consideration. The transaction evidenced by this Amendment is in
the best interests of the Borrower and the Guarantors and the
creditors of such Persons, the direct and indirect benefits to
inure to the Borrower and the Guarantors pursuant to this Amendment
and the other Loan Documents (including without limitation the
Additional Guaranty) constitute substantially more than "reasonably
equivalent value" (as such term is used in Section 548 of the
Bankruptcy Code) and "valuable consideration," "fair value," and
"fair consideration," (as such terms are used in any applicable
state fraudulent conveyance law), in exchange for the benefits to
be provided by the Borrower and the Guarantors pursuant to this
Amendment and the other Loan Documents (including without
limitation the Additional Guaranty), and but for the willingness of
the Guarantors to guaranty the Loan, Borrower would be unable to
obtain the approval of the Banks of this Amendment and Additional
Guarantor would be unable to obtain separate financing which
separate financing will enable Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries
(including the Guarantors) to have available financing to conduct
and expand their business.
7. No Default. By execution hereof, the Borrower and
Guarantors certify that the Borrower and Guarantors are and will be
in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after the
execution and delivery of this Amendment and the Additional
Guaranty, and that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing.
8. Waiver of Claims. Borrower and Guarantors acknowledge,
represent and agree that Borrower and Guarantors have no defenses,
setoffs, claims, counterclaims or causes of action of any kind or
nature whatsoever with respect to the Loan Documents, the
administration or funding of the Loans or with respect to any acts
or omissions of Agent or any of the Banks, or any past or present
officers, agents or employees of Agent or any of the Banks, and
each of Borrower and Guarantors does hereby expressly waive,
release and relinquish any and all such defenses, setoffs, claims,
counterclaims and causes of action, if any.
9. Conditions to Effectiveness of Amendment. The
effectiveness of this Amendment shall be conditioned upon the
receipt by the Agent of the Additional Guaranty duly executed by
Additional Guarantor, a contribution agreement among Borrower and
the Guarantors in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and
each and every other document, certification, opinion or other item
set forth in Section 10 of the Credit Agreement applicable to Guarantors,
general partners of Guarantors, or Loan Documents executed by
Guarantors.
10. Ratification. Except as hereinabove set forth, all
terms, covenants and provisions of the Credit Agreement remain
unaltered and in full force and effect, and the parties hereto do
hereby expressly ratify and confirm the Credit Agreement as
modified and amended herein. Nothing in this Amendment shall be
deemed or construed to constitute, and there has not otherwise
occurred, a novation, cancellation, satisfaction, release,
extinguishment or substitution of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Notes or the other obligations of Borrower and Guarantors under the
Loan Documents.
11. Amendment as Loan Document. This Amendment shall
constitute a Loan Document.
12. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any
number of counterparts which shall together constitute but one and
the same agreement.
13. Miscellaneous. This Amendment shall be construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. This Amendment shall be binding upon and shall
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
permitted successors, successors-in-title and assigns as provided
