case may be, such involuntary bankruptcy case is dismissed within 60 days), then
WATP shall forgive the Remaining Obligation and all interest accrued thereon
from and after the Closing Date. In addition, not later than November 15, 2002,
Verso shall, or shall cause NACT to, remit to WATP an amount equal to 75% of the
funds collected by NACT in respect of the Receivables during the calendar month
of October, 2002 (after deduction of NACT's expenses related to such
collections). WATP acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Section 5(c)(i)
below and the obligations relating to the Remaining Amount set forth above, the
payment by Verso of the Compromise Amount and the performance by Verso of all of
its obligations set forth herein shall be in full, complete and final
satisfaction of the Receivables Owed Amount, the Equipment Owed Amount and the
Convertible Note.

         SECTION 2.     ASSIGNMENT OF NOTES; TERMINATION OF SECURITY INTERESTS.
At the Closing, Verso shall cause NACT to assign to WATP all of NACT's right,
title and interest in and to the Receivables (including all notes and other
evidences of indebtedness related thereto) pursuant to the terms and conditions
of the Assignment and Collection Agreement. Verso shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain from Silicon Valley Bank, at or prior to the
Closing, a release and termination of Silicon Valley Bank's Security Interest
(as defined in Section 3) in the Receivables, which release and termination
shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to WATP. At the Closing,

         (d)      This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument
                  signed by all of the parties hereto. No failure to exercise
                  and no delay in exercising, on the part of any party, any
                  right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as
                  a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
