         similar law affecting creditors' rights generally; and

                  (e) After giving effect to this Agreement, no Default or Event
         of Default has occurred and is continuing.

         5. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all the Loan

understanding and agreement of the parties hereto in relation to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes any prior negotiations and agreements among the
