Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, bread crumbs, mayonnaise, soup mix, parsley, horseradish, salt, garlic powder, sage, thyme and pepper. Crumble chicken over mixture and mix lightly but thoroughly.
Shape into a loaf; place in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, until no pink remains and a thermometer reads 165°, 55-60 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, saute mushrooms in butter until tender. Add the broth, rosemary, salt and white pepper. Bring to a boil. Combine cornstarch and wine until smooth; gradually stir into mushroom mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with meat loaf.
