Borrower and Lender are parties to that certain Loan And Security Agreement dated as of April 30, 2003 (as amended, modified, and/or restated from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), as modified by the Forbearance Agreements. | |
SECOND: |
Borrower has been in default under the Loan Agreement for an extensive period of time pursuant to Existing Defaults and other matters stated in the Forbearance Agreements. During that time, Borrower has made multiple requests asking Lender to continue to forbear from exercising its collection and other rights, and to make further advances under the Loan Agreement. Lender has agreed to those requests by Borrower under the terms and conditions of the Forbearance Agreements. | |
THIRD: |
The last day of the current forbearance period is January 31, 2005. Borrower has represented to Lender that (a) the shareholders of Emergystat, Inc. have entered into an agreement dated , 2 , to transfer ninety percent (90%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Emergystat, Inc. to Southland Health Services, Inc. (“Southland Health Services”), (b) the shareholders of Emergystat of Sulligent, Inc. have entered into an agreement dated , 2 , to transfer ninety percent (90%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Emergystat of Sulligent, Inc. to Southland Health Services (the agreements described in subsections (a) and (b) shall be referred to collectively in this Agreement as the, “Emergystat Purchase Agreement”, and the stock purchases described in subsections (a) and (b) shall be referred to collectively in this Agreement as the (“Emergystat Stock Purchase”), and (c) Southland Health Services has entered into a Capital Stock Purchase Agreement, dated on or about December 27, 2004 (the “Southland Purchase Agreement”) with the Purchaser, whereby the Purchaser is to acquire all of the equity interests of Southland Health Services, and thereby indirectly acquire the entities comprising Borrower (the “Southland Stock Purchase”).
