including September 27, 1996, Lender waives all Defaults which have occurred or
will occur solely in connection with SECTIONS 8.6, 9.1, and 9.2. Additionally,
Lender agrees that it will not, on or before September 27, 1996, make demand

affected by this amendment and continue to guarantee, assure, and secure full
payment and performance of the present and future Obligation, and (c) agrees to
perform such acts and duly authorize, execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, and
record such additional documents, and certificates as Lender may request in
order to create, perfect, preserve, and protect those guaranties, assurances,
and Liens.
