and

     

    WHEREAS, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5, CMII is
willing to waive the Subject Events of Default, but only for the specific
covenants and time periods set forth above, and to defer payment of the
September 30, 2009 interest payment on the Original Note to January 15,
2010.

Events of Default does not imply any agreement to provide any subsequent waiver
of any Default or Event of Default.

     

    (16)             Reaffirmation of Subsidiary
Guarantee.  Grafico reaffirms its obligations to CMII
