ITEM 5. OTHER MATTERS.

First Amendment To Forbearance Agreement

Subsequent to entering into the Fifth Amendment And Waiver To Credit Agreement And Forbearance Agreement dated as of March 31, 2002 (the "Forbearance Agreement"), among Vision Twenty-One, Inc. (the "Company"), the Bank of Montreal as Agent and the other lenders party to the Forbearance Agreement (collectively, the "Lenders"), the Company failed to pay the interest due on or about April 30, 2002 (the "Interest Payment Default") under the Amended And Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") dated November 10, 2000, as amended by the First Amendment dated as of March 31, 2001, Second Amendment dated as of May 31, 2001, Third Amendment dated as of July 12, 2001, Fourth Amendment dated as of September 30, 2001 and the Forbearance Agreement. The Interest Payment Default constituted a default under the Credit Agreement and a standstill termination event under the Forbearance Agreement.

 

On May 17, 2002, the Company and the Lenders entered into a First Amendment To Forbearance Agreement (the "Forbearance Agreement Amendment") pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to forbear from accelerating the obligations under the Credit Agreement by reason of the Interest Payment Default until the scheduled standstill termination date of May 31, 2002, or the occurrence of an earlier standstill termination event under the Forbearance Agreement.

A copy of the Forbearance Agreement Amendment is filed with this Report as Exhibit 4.53 and the summary set forth herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of such document.
