Loan Amount equal to $17,750,000 into the number of shares of WGSI Common
Stock representing 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of WGSI Common
Stock on a fully diluted basis (the "New WGSI Conversion Right"), at any

shall be entitled to receive, (i) in exchange for a portion of the Term C
Loan Amount equal to $6,250,000, the number of shares of Parent Common
Stock equal to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of Parent Common
Stock on a fully diluted basis, and (ii) in exchange for a portion of the
Term C Loan Amount equal to $17,750,000, the number of shares of WGSI
Common Stock equal to 25% of the issued and outstanding shares of WGSI
Common Stock on a fully diluted basis, provided that in the event that the
--------
Term C Loan Amount is less than $17,750,000 (whether following exercise of
the New Parent Conversion Right or otherwise), the Term C Lender may
exercise its New WGSI Conversion Right by (1) converting the Term C Loan
Amount and (2) paying to Borrowers in cash the difference between (x)
$17,750,000 and (y) the Term C Loan Amount.
(d) Each of Parent and WGSI shall at all times, when the Term C Loan
Amount shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its

to effect the conversion of the Term C Loan Amount pursuant to the New
Parent Conversion Right and the New WGSI Conversion Right, on a fully
diluted basis.

Term C Lender and all other Persons who, together with the Term C Lender,
would be deemed a single "person" (as such term is used in Section 13(d)(3)
of the Exchange Act), shall not be the beneficial owner (as determined in
accordance with Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that
the Term C Lender and such other Persons will be deemed to have beneficial
ownership of all shares of Parent Common Stock that the Term C Lender and
such other Persons have the right to acquire, whether such right is
exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or
indirectly, of more than 19.9% of the total voting
6
power of all issued and outstanding Parent Common Stock. Any portion of the
Term C Loan Amount which cannot be converted into Parent Common Stock
because of the foregoing limitation shall remain outstanding and shall

warrants to the Lender Group that (a) the execution, delivery, and performance
of each Amendment Document to which it is a party, and the performance of the
Loan Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, are within its corporate or other
