      in
      order that the transactions contemplated herein are consummated as originally
      contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

     

    6.           Effect
      of Amendment.  This Amendment shall be binding upon Executive
      and his heirs, executors, legal representatives, successors and assigns, and
      Luby's and its legal representatives, successors and assigns.  Except
      as provided in the preceding sentence, this Amendment, and the rights and

      to voluntary or involuntary assignment, alienation, or transfer, whether by
      operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other
      Party.

     

    7.           Execution.  This
      Amendment may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission)
      in
      one or more counterparts all of which shall be considered one and the same
      agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been
      signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party, it being
      understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart.
