    Under the Amended and Restated MOU, Centurion has agreed that closing on the Settlement Terms on or before the Closing Date constitutes complete satisfaction of the obligations under the Debenture and that at the closing, the obligations shall be deemed to have been paid in full and indefeasibly discharged by the assignment and stock issuance with no further obligations existing under the Debenture and the Debenture shall be extinguished and canceled in its entirety and Centurion will then release and forever discharge the Company and the subsidiaries of the Company, of and from any and all past, present or future claims, demands, obligations, actions, causes of action, rights, damages, costs, loss of services, expenses and compensation which Centurion now has, or which may hereafter accrue or otherwise be acquired, on account of, or in any way growing out of the Debenture, the Security Agreement and the Guarantee (the “Settlement”).

The Forbearance Period terminated automatically upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the commencement by the Company or any its subsidiaries of a voluntary proceeding seeking relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or seeking appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator or other similar official for it or any substantial part of its assets; or its consent to any of the foregoing in any involuntary proceeding against it; or makes an assignment for the benefit of, or the offering to or entering into by.
