                             PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

        THIS PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT, dated as of March 30, 2001 (as amended,

serving as trustee of the Trust (together with any institutional co-trustee and

as lenders (individually, a "Lender" and collectively, the "Lenders"), FUJI

Holders, to the extent of their respective interests, and as the Sole Lead
Arranger (in such capacity, the "Agent"). Capitalized terms used but not
otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in
ANNEX A.

        In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. LOANS AND HOLDER ADVANCES.

        1.1    LOANS.

               (a)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and
the other Operative Agreements, and in reliance on the representations and
warranties of each of the parties hereto contained herein or made pursuant
hereto, the Lenders have agreed to make Loans to the Trust from time to time in
an aggregate principal amount of up to $62,400,000 in order for the Trust to
acquire each Property to develop the Land related thereto, and to construct the
Improvements thereon in accordance with the Construction Agency Agreement, and
for other purposes described herein, and in consideration of the receipt of
proceeds of the Loans, the Trust will issue the Notes. The Loans shall be made
and the Notes shall be issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to
SECTION 4 and Section 2 of the Credit Agreement, the Loans will be made to the
Trust at the request of the Construction Agent, in consideration for the
Construction Agent's agreement, for the benefit of the Holders, pursuant to the
Construction Agency Agreement, to purchase each Property and to develop the Land
related thereto and to construct the Improvements thereon in accordance with the
applicable Plans and Specifications.

               (b)    The Loans and the obligations of the Trust under the
Credit Agreement shall be secured by, inter alia, (i) a first priority
assignment of the Lease, granted pursuant to the Assignment of Lease and
consented to by the Lessee pursuant to the Consent to Lease Assignment, (ii) a
first priority assignment of the Construction Agency Agreement and all
Construction Agency Agreement Supplements thereto granted pursuant to the
Contract


                                       1
<PAGE>   8

Assignment and consented to by the Construction Agent pursuant to the Consent to
Contract Assignment; and (iii) a first priority mortgage lien (subject to the
Permitted Exceptions) on each Property and the Lease thereof pursuant to a Deed
of Trust joined by the Lessee.

        1.2    HOLDER ADVANCES.

               (a)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and
the other Operative Agreements, including the satisfaction of all applicable
conditions precedent set forth in SECTION 5, and in reliance on the
representations and warranties of each of the parties hereto contained herein or
made pursuant hereto, on each Funding Date, each Holder shall make an advance of
immediately available funds (each, a "Holder Advance"), on a pro rata basis, to
the Trust, based on such Holder's Holder Commitment as set forth on SCHEDULE
1.2; provided, that the Agent shall have received a Requisition from the
Construction Agent in accordance with SECTION 4. The aggregate amount of all
Holder Advances shall be not less than four percent (4.0%) of the amount of all
Advances requested; provided, that no Holder shall be obligated to make any
Holder Advance if, after giving effect to the proposed Holder Advance, the
outstanding aggregate amount of the Holder Advances of such Holder would exceed
such Holder's Holder Commitment; and provided, further, that the aggregate
amount of Holder Advances shall not, at any time, exceed the aggregate amount of
all Holder Commitments.

               (b)    No prepayment or any other payment with respect to any
Advance shall be permitted if such prepayment or payment would cause the
outstanding Holder Advances to equal less than four percent (4.0%) of the
outstanding amount of all Advances, except in connection with the termination or
expiration of the Term, or in connection with the exercise of remedies relating
to the occurrence of an Event of Default. To the extent the Trust, in its
capacity as Borrower under the Credit Agreement, shall have elected to terminate
or reduce the amount of the aggregate Lender Commitments pursuant to Section
2.4(b) of the Credit Agreement, a pro rata election shall be deemed to have been
made with respect to the Holder Commitment. On any date on which the aggregate
Lender Commitments shall be reduced to zero ($0) as a result of a Credit
Agreement Event of Default, the aggregate Holder Commitments shall also
automatically be reduced to zero ($0) and the Trust shall prepay the Holder
Advances in full, together with accrued but unpaid Holder Yield thereon and all
other amounts owing under the Certificates.

               (c)    The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
of the Holders herein and in the other Operative Agreements are several, and not
joint or joint and several.

        1.3    RESTRICTIONS ON LEASE BALANCE. The Lease Balance shall not exceed
the lesser of (x) the Estimated Project Costs and (y) 110 percent (110.0%) of
the Fair Market Sales Value of any Property, as set forth in the Appraisal of
such Property delivered pursuant to SECTION 5.2. The Trust shall use the Holder
Advances to pay a portion of the Project Costs simultaneously and pro rata with
the fundings by the Lenders.


                                       2
<PAGE>   9

        1.4    INTEREST ON LOANS.

               (a)    Each Loan shall accrue interest computed and payable in
accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. Each Loan shall become due
and payable at the dates and times provided under the Credit Agreement.

               (b)    The Lessor shall, in accordance with SECTION 12,
distribute the Debt Basic Rent and all other amounts due with respect to the
Loans paid to the Lessor by the Lessee under the Lease from time to time.

               (c)    Interest accruing at the Overdue Rate shall be payable on
demand.

        1.5    YIELD ON HOLDER CERTIFICATES.

               (a)    The amount of the Holder Advances outstanding from time to
time shall accrue yield ("Holder Yield") at the Yield Rate, calculated using the
actual number of days elapsed and, when the Yield Rate is based on the Adjusted
LIBOR, a 360-day year basis and, if calculated at the ABR, a 360-day year basis
if the ABR is calculated at the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and a 365-, or, if
applicable, 366-, day year basis if the ABR is calculated at the Base Rate.

               (b)    Each Holder shall receive its pro rata portion of the
Holder Yield on Holder Advances from the Trust Estate. Payment of Holder Yield
to each Holder shall be made on each Scheduled Interest Payment Date, or as
otherwise provided herein, in the Trust Agreement or in the Credit Agreement. If
not repaid sooner, the outstanding aggregate amount of Holder Advances shall be
due in full on the Maturity Date. On the Maturity Date, the Trust shall pay to
each Holder its portion of the Holder Advances then due, together with all
accrued but unpaid Holder Yield and all other amounts due to such Holder from
the Trust.

               (c)    Holder Yield on outstanding Holder Advances shall be due
and payable by the Holders during the Construction Period as provided in SECTION
1.6 and thereafter the Trust shall distribute to the Holders the Holder Yield
and all other amounts due with respect to the Holder Advances paid to the Trust
by the Lessee under the Lease, provided, that Holder Yield accruing at the
Overdue Rate shall be payable on demand and (ii) each prepayment of Holder
Advances shall be accompanied by accrued Holder Yield to the date of such
prepayment on the amount prepaid and breakage costs, if any.

               (c)    The calculation of Holder Yield shall be made by the
Agent, such calculation being conclusive and binding on the Trust and the
Holders in the absence of manifest error. The Agent shall distribute, in
accordance with SECTION 12, the Lessor Basic Rent and all other amounts due with
respect to the Holder Advances paid to the Lessor by the Lessee under the Lease
or the other Operative Agreements from time to time.

               (e)    If all or any portion of the Holder Advances, any Holder
Yield payable thereon, or any other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid
within three (3) days after the same is due (whether at stated maturity,
acceleration thereof or otherwise), such overdue amount shall, without limiting
the rights of the Holders under any Operative Agreement, bear interest at a rate
per annum equal to the Overdue Rate, in each case from the date of nonpayment
until paid


                                       3
<PAGE>   10

(whether before or after judgment). Upon the occurrence, and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the amount of, and, to the extent permitted
by law, interest on the Loans and Holder Yield on the Holder Advances and any
other amounts owing hereunder or under the other Operative Agreements shall bear
interest, payable on demand, at a per annum rate equal to the Overdue Rate.

        1.6    CONSTRUCTION PERIOD HOLDER YIELD AND LESSOR COMMITMENT FEES.
During the Construction Period, on each date which is one (1) Business Day prior
to any date on which the Holders are entitled to a payment on account of Holder
Yield or their pro rata share of the Commitment Fee, the Construction Agent
shall be deemed to have requested that the Holders make Holder Advances, with an
Interest Period of one month, in an amount equal to their respective Holder
Yield or Commitment Fee due and payable on such date solely for the purpose of
paying such Holder Yield or Commitment Fee which are then due and payable, which
Holder Advances shall not be paid to the Construction Agent or any third party
under the Operative Agreements but shall be capitalized as part of Project
Costs.

        1.7    INTEREST PERIOD SELECTION ELECTIONS. By delivering an Interest
Period Selection Notice to the Trust and the Agent with respect to Holder
Advances and Loans, respectively, the Lessee may from time to time during the
Term irrevocably select, on not less than three (3) nor more than five (5)
Business Days' notice (other than the initial Interest Period with respect to
the Advance to be made on the Closing Date, which such Advance is to bear
interest at a rate equal to the ABR and notice may be given on the Closing
Date), the duration for the next succeeding Interest Period; provided, however,
that (a) in the absence of a delivery of an Interest Period Selection Notice
with respect to any Loan or Holder Advance at least three (3) Business Days
before the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto,
the Lessee shall be deemed to have selected that such Loan or Holder Advance
have an Interest Period of one (1) month, (b) each such selection shall be
prorated among the applicable outstanding Loans and Holder Advances of all
Financing Parties, (c) the outstanding Loans and Holder Advances may not be

additional amount respecting any indemnity payment as referenced in SECTION

Trust) pursuant to the requirements imposed on the Trust under the Operative
Agreements.

such item to the party requesting it.

               (e)    Notwithstanding the completion of a Property Closing Date,
each condition precedent set forth in SECTION 5.2 may be subsequently enforced
by the Agent (unless such has been expressly waived in writing by the Agent).

event the Fair Market Sales Value of any Land purchased and leased pursuant to
the Operative Agreements, as set forth in the Appraisal, is greater than
twenty-five percent (25.0%) of the aggregate Fair Market Sales Value of such

occurred as to which the Lessee or any ERISA Affiliate was required to file a
report with the PBGC, and the present value of all benefit liabilities under
each Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plan) did not, as of the
last annual valuation date applicable thereto, exceed by more than $1,000,000
the value of the assets of such Plan. Neither the Lessee nor any ERISA Affiliate
has incurred any Withdrawal Liability which remains unpaid and that could result
in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Lessee nor any ERISA Affiliate has
received any notification that any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or
has been terminated within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA, and to the best
knowledge of the Lessee no Multiemployer Plan is reasonably expected to be in
reorganization or to be terminated, where such reorganization or termination has
resulted or could reasonably be expected to result, through increases in the
contributions required to be made to such Plan or otherwise, in a Material
Adverse Effect.

               (n)    ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. Except as set forth in the
Environmental Audit, each Property is free of contamination from any Release of
Hazardous Substances. Neither the Lessee nor any of its Subsidiaries has any
material contingent liability related to noncompliance with any Environmental
Laws, or related to any Release or threatened Release of a Hazardous Substance
or the generation, use, storage or disposal of Hazardous Substances associated
with any Property. The Lessee and each Subsidiary is conducting its respective
business in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws except such as
would not result in a fine, penalty or cost to remediate in excess of $500,000.
Neither the Lessee nor any of its Subsidiaries has received notice of any
failure to so comply. The Lessee and its Subsidiaries, at the Lessee's and its
Subsidiaries' facilities, do not manage any hazardous wastes, hazardous
substances, hazardous materials, toxic substances, toxic pollutants or
substances similarly denominated, as those terms or similar terms are used in
the Environmental Laws, in violation of any such law or any regulations
promulgated pursuant thereto. Neither the Lessee nor any of its Subsidiaries has
caused or suffered to occur any Release with respect to any Hazardous Substance
at, under, above or upon any real property which it owns or leases or to which
it transported, disposed or arranged for disposal of Hazardous Substances that
would result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Lessee nor any of its
Subsidiaries is involved in operations which are reasonably likely to result in
the imposition of any material liability on the Lessee or any of its
Subsidiaries under any Environmental Law, and neither the Lessee nor any of its
Subsidiaries has permitted any tenant or occupant of such premises to engage in
any such activities.

               (o)    INSURANCE. The Lessee has obtained insurance coverage
covering each Property which meets the requirements of Section 14.1 of the Lease
and Section 6.1 of the Construction Agency Agreement before commencing
construction, repairs or modifications, as the case may be, and such coverage is
in full force and effect.

               (p)    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; NO DEFAULT. The
representations and warranties of the Construction Agent and the Lessee set
forth in the Operative Agreements are true and correct. The Construction Agent
and the Lessee are in compliance with their respective obligations under the
Operative Agreements and there exists no Default or Event of Default.

               (q)    NATURE OF EACH PROPERTY. The Lessee, as Construction Agent
on behalf of the Lessor, shall construct office buildings on the Land
substantially in accordance with the applicable Plans and Specifications. The
Lessee has performed all actions necessary to ensure


                                       22
<PAGE>   29

that it and all other Lessee Persons will be able to obtain, and the Lessee and
all other Lessee Persons will obtain, all subdivision, platting, zoning,
construction, environmental and other permits, licenses, consents, approvals and
authorizations from all Governmental Authorities in connection with the
acquisition of the Land and the development and construction of the Improvements
in accordance with the applicable Plans and Specifications when required to be
obtained. The Lessee, as Construction Agent, has performed, or will perform, all
examinations and has made, or will make, all inquiries reasonably necessary to
ensure that each of the other Lessee Persons, and each of the other contractors,
subcontractors and suppliers that are currently or will be involved in the
development and construction of the Property or Properties, as applicable, is
capable of, and each of them will, obtain all necessary materials, supplies and
labor at the points in time required by the construction schedule for the
Property or Properties, as applicable, in order to enable them to complete
construction of such Property or Properties in accordance with the applicable
Plans and Specifications and the requirements of such construction schedule.
There is no local opposition known to Lessee to any of the proposed or approved
development plans for any Property that could reasonably be expected to have any
effect on the ability of the Construction Agent to construct the Improvements or
obtain the permits and other authorizations from Governmental Authorities for
the Improvements.

               (r)    PRIORITY OF LIENS. As to each Property, (i) upon proper
recordation in the applicable governmental recording office in the country in
which such Property is located, the Deed of Trust, the Assignment of Lease and
the Memorandum of Lease with respect to such Property will constitute a valid
and perfected first lien on the Lessor's interest and the Lessee's interest in
such Property, and the Improvements thereon, subject only to the Permitted
Exceptions including the Lien of the Lease and the Lessor's Liens, and (ii) upon
proper filing in the applicable governmental filing office, the Lessor Financing
Statements will perfect the Lessor's interest under the Lease to the extent the
Lease is a security agreement governed by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial
Code, and to the extent the security interest can be perfected by filing a
financing statement under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

               (s)    FLOOD ZONE. No portion of any Property is located in an
area identified as a special flood hazard area by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency or other applicable agency, or if any Property is located in
an area identified as a special flood hazard area by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency or other applicable agency, then flood insurance has been
obtained for such Property in accordance with Section 14.2(b) of the Lease and
in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended.

               (t)    LEGAL REQUIREMENTS. The Property or Properties, as
applicable, being acquired by the Trust comply with all Legal Requirements
(including all zoning and land use laws and Environmental Laws).

               (u)    CONSENTS, ETC. All consents, licenses and building permits
required by all Legal Requirements for construction, completion, occupancy and
operation of each Property have been or will be obtained and are or will be in
full force and effect by the time required to satisfy such Legal Requirements.

               (v)    SOLVENCY. The fair salable value of the Lessee's assets
exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; the Lessee is not left with
unreasonably small capital after consummation


                                       23
<PAGE>   30

of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements; and the Lessee is
able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.

               (w)    TITLE TO PROPERTY. Upon the acquisition of each Property
on the applicable Property Closing Date, the Lessor will have good and
marketable title to such Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions,
including the Lien of the Lease and Lessor Liens. Upon the acquisition of title
to such Property on such Property Closing Date, the Lessor will have the right
to grant the Deed of Trust on such Property. The Lessor will at all times have
good and marketable title to the Land and the Improvements, subject only to
Permitted Exceptions, including the Lien of the Lease and Lessor Liens.

               (x)    CONDITIONS PRECEDENT IN OPERATIVE AGREEMENTS. All
conditions precedent contained in this Agreement and in the other Operative
Agreements to be satisfied by the Lessee or the Lessor, as applicable, relating
to the acquisition of each Property, will be satisfied in full on or prior to
the date on which an Advance is requested to be made in respect of Property
Acquisition Costs for such Property.

               (y)    OFFERING. Neither Lessee nor anyone acting on behalf of
the Lessee has directly or indirectly offered any interest in any Property or
the Notes for sale to, or solicited any offer to acquire any of the same from,
anyone other than the Lessor, the Holders, the Lenders, and other institutions,
each of which is believed capable of evaluating and bearing the risks of
investment in the transactions contemplated hereby.

               (z)    TAX REGISTRATION. The transactions contemplated hereby are
either (i) not required to be registered pursuant to Code Section 6111 and any
regulations promulgated thereunder or (ii) required to be registered pursuant to
Code Section 6111, and, if so required, the Lessee will properly and timely
register such transaction in accordance with Code Section 6111 and any
regulations promulgated thereunder and will provide the correct registration
number to the Lessor. No inference is to be drawn from this SECTION 6.3(dd) or
SECTION 11.9 that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements
(or any provision thereof) are a confidential corporate tax shelter subject to
registration within the meaning of Code Section 6111 (and the regulations
thereunder), a "potentially abusive tax shelter" within the meaning of Code
Section 6112 (and the regulations thereunder) or a transaction requiring a
disclosure statement under Temporary Regulation ss. 1.6011-4T or (ii) the Lessee
or any other signatory to this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement is a
promoter, organizer, manager, seller or investor in a corporate tax shelter, as
any of those terms are defined under Code Section 6111 or 6112 (and any other
regulations thereunder). It is understood and agreed that the representations,
warranties and covenants contained in this SECTION 6.3(dd) are for the purpose
of SECTION 11.9.

               (aa)   NO CONFIDENTIAL OFFERS. Each Participant or other offeree
(and each employee, representative, or other agent of such Participant or
offeree) shall be permitted to disclose the structure as it relates to the tax
aspects of the transaction contemplated by the Operative Agreements to any and
all Persons, without limitation of any kind on such disclosure.

the Lessee are in compliance with their respective obligations under the
Operative Agreements and there exists no Default or Event of Default
attributable to the Lessee or the Construction Agent under any of the Operative

of, or after giving effect to, the Advance requested by the related Requisition
on such date.

               (b)    TITLE TO LAND AND PROPERTY. The Lessor has good and
marketable title to the Land, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions,

marketable title to any Improvements theretofore financed under the Operative
Agreements, subject only to Permitted Exceptions including the Lien of the Lease
and Lessor Liens.

               (c)    PRIORITY OF LIENS. As to each Property, assuming proper
recordation in the applicable governmental recording office in the county where
such Property is located, the Deed of Trust and the Assignment of Lease and the
Lease Supplement with respect to such Property constitute a valid and perfected
first lien on the Property or Properties, as applicable, subject only to
Permitted Exceptions, including the Lien of the Lease and Lessor's Liens.

               (d)    EXECUTION AND DELIVERY BY THE CONSTRUCTION AGENT. The
execution and delivery of each Operative Agreement delivered by the Construction
Agent on such date and the performance of the Construction Agent's obligations
under such Operative Agreements have been duly authorized by all requisite
corporate action of the Construction Agent.

               (e)    VALID AND BINDING OBLIGATIONS OF THE CONSTRUCTION AGENT.
Each Operative Agreement delivered by the Construction Agent on such date is a
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Construction Agent, enforceable
against the Construction Agent in accordance with its terms, subject, in each
case, as to enforceability, bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other
similar laws affecting enforcement of creditor rights generally and, as to the
availability of specific performance or other injunctive relief, subject to the
discretionary power of a court to deny such relief and to general equitable
principles.

               (f)    INSURANCE. The Construction Agent has obtained insurance
coverage covering the Property or Properties, as applicable, which meets the
requirements of the Construction Agency Agreement and the other Operative
Agreements before commencing construction, repairs or Modifications, as the case

               (g)    PROPERTY-RELATED MATTERS. Each Property, as improved in
accordance with the applicable Plans and Specifications, will comply with all
Legal Requirements (including


                                       25
<PAGE>   32

all applicable zoning and land use laws and Environmental Laws) in all material
respects and all Insurance Requirements. All Plans and Specifications have been
or will be prepared in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements
(including all applicable Environmental Laws and building, planning, zoning and
fire codes) and upon completion of the applicable Improvements in accordance
with the applicable Plans and Specifications, such Improvements on any Property
will not encroach in any manner onto any adjoining land (except as permitted by
express written easements or variance) and such Improvements and the use thereof
by the Lessee and its agents, assignees, employees, invitees, lessees, licensees
and tenants will comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal
Requirements (including all applicable Environmental Laws and building,
planning, zoning and fire codes) in all material respects. Upon completion of
such Improvements in accordance with the applicable Plans and Specifications,
(i) there will be no defects to such Improvements, including the plumbing,
heating, air conditioning and electrical systems thereof, that will adversely
effect the Fair Market Sales Value of the Property, and (ii) all water, sewer,
electric, gas, telephone and drainage facilities and all other utilities
required to adequately service such Improvements for their intended use will be

(including any proceeding in condemnation or eminent domain or under any
Environmental Law) pending or threatened which adversely affects the title to,
or the use, operation or value of, any Property. No fire or other casualty with
respect to the Property has occurred, which fire or other casualty has had a
Material Adverse Effect on the Lessee's ability to perform its obligations under
the Construction Agency Agreement and the other Operative Agreements. All
utilities serving each Property, or proposed to serve each Property in
accordance with the applicable Plans and Specifications, are located in, and in
the future will be located in, and vehicular access to the Improvements on each
Property is provided by, either public rights-of-way abutting each Property or
Appurtenant Rights. All applicable licenses, approvals, authorizations,
consents, permits (including building, demolition and environmental permits,
licenses, approvals, authorizations and consents), easements and rights-of-way,
including proof of dedication, required for (i) the use, treatment, storage,
transport, disposal or disposition of any Hazardous Substance on, at, under or
from any Property during the construction of the Improvements thereon and the
use and operation of the Improvements following such construction, (ii) the
construction of the Improvements in accordance with the applicable Plans and
Specifications and the Construction Agency Agreement and (iii) the use and

time so required.

               (h)    LEASE REQUIREMENTS. The Improvements, when completed, will
comply with all requirements and conditions set forth in the Lease and all other

SECTION 8. OTHER COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS.

        8.1    COOPERATION WITH THE LESSEE. The Holders, the Lenders, the Lessor
(at the direction of the Majority Secured Parties) and the Agent shall, at the

assuming additional liabilities on account thereof and only to the extent such
is acceptable to the Holders, the Lenders, the Lessor (at the direction of the
Majority Secured Parties) and the Agent in their reasonable discretion),
cooperate with the Lessee in connection with the Lessee satisfying its covenant

<PAGE>   35

               (a)    Neither the Trust Companies, the Trust nor any Holder will
create or permit to exist at any time, and each of them will, at its own cost
and expense, promptly take such action as may be necessary duly to discharge, or
to cause to be discharged, all Lessor Liens on any Property attributable to it;
provided, however, that the Trust Companies, the Trust and the Holders shall not
be required to so discharge any such Lessor Lien while the same is being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted so long
as such proceedings shall not involve any material danger of impairment of the
Liens of the Security Documents or of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, and shall
not interfere with the use or disposition of, any Property or title thereto or
any interest therein or the payment of Rent;

               (b)    Without prejudice to any right under the Trust Agreement
of the Trust Companies to resign (subject to the requirement set forth in the
Trust Agreement that such resignation shall not be effective until a successor
shall have agreed to accept such appointment), or the Holders' rights under the
Trust Agreement to remove the institution acting as the trustee (after consent
to such removal by the Agent as provided in the Trust Agreement), each of the
Trust Companies and the Holders hereby agrees with the Lessee and the Agent (i)
not to terminate or revoke the trust created by the Trust Agreement except as
permitted by Article X of the Trust Agreement, (ii) not to amend, supplement,
terminate or revoke or otherwise modify any provision of the Trust Agreement in
such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any such party without the

shall be no Event of Default that shall have occurred and be continuing), which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

               (d)    The Trust shall not contract for, create, incur or assume
any Indebtedness, or enter into any business or other activity or enter into any
contracts or agreements, other than pursuant to or under the Operative
Agreements;

               (e)    The Holders will not instruct the Trust Companies or the
Trust to take any action in violation of the terms of any Operative Agreement;

shall (i) commence any case, proceeding or other action with respect to the
Trust under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction, domestic or foreign,
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, winding-up,
liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to it or its
debts, or (ii) seek appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other
similar official with respect to the Trust or for all or any substantial benefit
of the creditors of the Trust; and neither any Holder, the Trust Companies nor
the Trust shall take any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to,
approval of, or acquiescence in, any of the acts set forth in this paragraph;

<PAGE>   36

               (g)    Each Trust Company and the Trust shall give prompt notice
to the Lessee, the Holders and the Agent if such party's principal place of
business or chief executive office, or the office where the records concerning
the accounts or contract rights relating to any Property are kept, shall cease
to be located at the addresses set forth in SECTION 6.1, or if any such party
shall change its name; and

               (h)    The Trust shall take or refrain from taking such actions
and grant or refrain from granting such approvals with respect to the Operative
Agreements or relating to any Property, in each case as directed in writing by
the Agent (until such time as the Loans are paid in full, and then by the
Required Holders); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this subparagraph (h), the Trust Companies, the Trust, the Agent,
the Lenders and the Holders each acknowledge, covenant and agree that neither
the Trust nor the Agent shall act or refrain from acting, regarding each
Unanimous Vote Matter, until such party has received the approval of each Lender
and each Holder affected by such matter.

        8.3    PROCEEDS OF CASUALTY. The Lessor agrees, for the benefit of the
Agent, the Holders, and the Lenders, that if at any time the Lessor receives any
proceeds as a result, directly or indirectly, of any Casualty with respect to
any Property which the Lessor is entitled to retain and hold in accordance with
the terms of the Lease, the Lessor agrees that it will promptly deposit such
amounts in an account with the Agent. The Lessor also agrees that it will
execute and deliver such documents and instruments as the Agent may request in
order to grant the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders and the Lenders, a
valid and perfected, first priority security interest in such proceeds.

        8.4    LESSEE COVENANTS, CONSENT AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT.

               (a)    INFORMATION. The Lessee will deliver to the Lessor and the

and all other amounts owing to the Lenders and the Holders under the Operative
Agreements, if any, the Agent is hereby authorized and directed to release such
Property from the Liens created by the Security Documents to the extent of its
interest therein. In addition, upon the termination of the Commitments and the
Holder Commitments and the payment in full of the Loans, the Holder Advances and
all other amounts owing by the Trust and the Lessee hereunder or under any other
Operative Agreement, the Agent is hereby authorized and directed to release such
Property from the Liens created by the Security Documents to the extent of its
interest therein. Upon request of the Trust following any such release, the
Agent shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Lessee, execute and deliver to
the Trust and the Lessee such documents as the Trust or the Lessee shall
reasonably request to evidence such release.

shall be required).

        9.2    LESSEE'S TRUST AGREEMENT RIGHTS. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in the Operative Agreements, the Trust and the Holders hereby

<PAGE>   42

the Lease upon payment for such Property or Properties in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Lease. Lessee may not assign any of the Operative
Agreements or any of its rights or obligations thereunder or with respect to any

liable hereunder and under such other documents to the extent that the
transferee shall not have assumed the obligations of the transferor thereunder.
Upon any transfer by the Lessor, a Holder or a Lender as above provided, any
such transferee shall assume the obligations of the Lessor, the Holder or the
Lender, as the case may be, and shall be deemed the "Lessor," or a "Holder" or
"Lender," as the case may be, for all purposes of such documents and each
reference herein to the transferor shall thereafter be deemed a reference to
such transferee for all purposes, except as provided in the preceding sentence.
Notwithstanding any transfer of all or a portion of the transferor's interest as
provided in this SECTION 10, the transferor shall be entitled to all benefits
accrued and all rights vested prior to such transfer including rights to
indemnification under any such document except to the extent transferred.

<PAGE>   43

               (c)    Anything in this SECTION 10 to the contrary

SECTION 11. INDEMNIFICATION.

        11.1   GENERAL INDEMNITY.

               (a)    The Lessee, whether or not any of the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be consummated, hereby assumes liability for and
agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person on an
After Tax Basis from and against any Claims arising from events occurring during
the Basic Term following the Construction Period, any Renewal Term and
thereafter which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against an
Indemnified Person (whether because of an action or omission of such Indemnified
Person or otherwise, whether or not such Indemnified Person shall also be
indemnified as to any such Claim by any other Person and whether or not such
Claim arises or occurs prior to the Closing Date or after the Expiration Date,
in any way relating to or arising or alleged to arise out of (i) the financing,
refinancing, ground lease, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, design,
construction, delivery, acceptance, nondelivery, leasing, subleasing,
possession, use, operation, repair, maintenance, modification, transportation,
condition, operation, sale, return, repossession (whether by summary proceedings
or otherwise), or any other disposition of any Property or any part thereof,
(ii) any latent or other defects in any Property whether or not discoverable by
an Indemnified Person or the Lessee; (iii) a violation of any Legal Requirement
or Requirement of Law by the Lessee or relating to any Property or the
transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements, including any violation
of Environmental Laws, the Release, presence or use of Hazardous Substances on,
at, under or emanating from any Property or other loss of or damage relating to
any Property; (iv) the Operative Agreements, or any transaction contemplated
thereby; (v) any breach by the Lessee of any of its representations or
warranties under the Operative Agreements or failure by the Lessee to perform or
observe any covenant or agreement to be performed by it under any of the
Operative Agreements or under any other contract or agreement by which the
Lessee is bound; (vi) the invalidation of Lessee's insurance policies related to
any Property; (vii) personal injury, death or property damage relating to any
Property, including Claims based on strict liability in tort; (viii) the
existence of any Lien on or with respect to any Property, the Improvements, the
Equipment, any Basic Rent or Supplemental Rent, title thereto, or any interest
therein, including any Liens which arise out of the possession, use, occupancy,
construction, repair or rebuilding of any Property or by reason of labor or
materials furnished or claimed to have been furnished to the Lessee, the Lessor,
the Construction Agent, or any of their contractors or agents or by reason of
the financing of any Property or any personality or equipment purchased or
leased by the Lessee or Improvements or Modifications constructed by the Lessee,
except Lessor Liens and Liens in favor of the Agent or the Lessor; and (ix) the
Transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Operative Agreement, in respect
of the application of Parts 4 and 5 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and any
prohibited


                                       37
<PAGE>   44

transaction described in Section 4975(c) of the Code; but in any event excluding
(x) Claims to the extent such Claims arise solely out of events occurring after
the expiration of the Term and after the Lessee's discharge of all its
obligations under the Lease and the other Operative Agreements or (y) as to any
Indemnified Person, any Claim to the extent resulting from the willful
misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person. The Lessee shall be
entitled to control, and shall assume full responsibility for the defense of,
any Claim; provided, however, that any Indemnified Person named in such Claim
may retain separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Lessee at the expense
of the Lessee in the event of and to the extent of a conflict; provided,
further, that the Lessee shall be required to pay for no more than one such
separate counsel in connection with each Claim for all Indemnified Persons. The
Lessee and each Indemnified Person agree to give each other prompt written
notice of any Claim hereby indemnified against but the giving of any such notice
by an Indemnified Person shall not be a condition to the Lessee's obligations
under this SECTION 11.1, except to the extent failure to give such notice
materially prejudices the Lessee's rights hereunder. After an Indemnified Person
has been fully indemnified for a Claim pursuant to this SECTION 11.1, and so
long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lessee
shall be subrogated to any right of such Indemnified Person with respect to such
Claim. None of the Indemnified Persons shall settle a Claim without the consent
of the Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

               (b)    The Construction Agent agrees to assume liability for, and
to indemnify, protect, defend, save and keep harmless the Lessor, the Trust
Companies and the Holders (the "Lessor Parties") on an After Tax Basis (which
right to indemnity may be assigned by the Lessor Parties), from and against any
and all Claims (including Losses (as defined in SECTION 11.10)) arising from
events occurring during the Construction Period that may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against the Lessor Parties, whether or not the Lessor Parties
shall also be indemnified as to any such Claim by any other Person and whether
or not such claim arises or accrues prior to the Closing Date, in any way
relating to or arising out of the circumstances described in clauses (i) through
(ix) of SECTION 11.1(A), and subject to exceptions (x) and (y) of SECTION
11.1(A), but only to the extent (1) such Claims result from acts or omissions of
the Construction Agent or any Lessee Person and (2)(A) are not related to
construction completion, or (B) if such Claims are related to construction
completion, the Lessee's recourse liability for such Claims shall not exceed the
Construction Period Maximum Recourse Amount. The Construction Agent acknowledges
and agrees in this connection that the Property or Properties, as applicable,
are in its control and possession during the Construction Period, that it is
responsible as Construction Agent for the acts and omissions of its
subcontractors and agents and all Lessee Persons and that it has agreed to
maintain each Property free from injury or mishap to third persons; provided,
however, that the occurrence of injury or mishap to third persons shall not give
rise to an Event of Default.

               (c)    Nothing contained in this Section 11.1 shall prevent
Lessee from bringing a separate action against any Indemnified Person for any
breach of contract, gross negligence, willful misconduct or other causes of
action permitted by the Operative Agreements.

        11.2   ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNITY. Without limitation of the other
provisions of this SECTION 11, during the Construction Period, the Lessee hereby
agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Lessor Party, and during the
Basic Term following the Construction


                                       38
<PAGE>   45

Period, any Renewal Term and thereafter, each Indemnified Person, on an After
Tax Basis from and against any and all Claims (including third party Claims for
personal injury or real or personal property damage), losses (including, but not
limited to, to the extent the Lease Balance and all other Obligations have not
been fully paid, any loss of value of any Property), damages, liabilities,
fines, penalties, charges, and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in
connection therewith (including, but not limited to, reasonable consultants' and
attorneys' fees and expenses), including, but not limited to, all costs incurred
in connection with any investigation or monitoring of site conditions or any
clean-up, remedial removal or restoration work, arising in whole or in part, out
of:

               (a)    the presence on or under any Property of any Hazardous
Substances, or any Release of any Hazardous Substances on, under, from or onto
any Property,

               (b)    any activity, including construction, carried on at any
Property, and whether by the Lessee or any predecessor in title or any
employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors of the Lessee or any
predecessor in title, or any other Persons (including such Indemnified Person),
in connection with the handling, treatment, removal, storage, decontamination,
clean-up, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Substances that at any time are
located or present on or under any Property,

               (c)    loss of or damage to any Property or the environment
(including clean-up costs, response costs, remediation and removal costs, cost
of corrective action, costs of financial assurance, fines and penalties and
natural resource damages), or death or injury to any Person, and all expenses
associated with the protection of wildlife, aquatic species, vegetation, flora
and fauna, and any mitigative action required by or under Environmental Laws, in
each case arising from activities on or conditions with respect to any Property,

               (d)    any claim concerning lack of compliance with Environmental
Laws, or any act or omission causing an environmental condition that requires
remediation or would allow any Governmental Authority to record a Lien on the
land records, in each case arising from activities on or conditions with respect
to any Property, or

               (e)    any residual contamination on or under any parcel of Land,
or affecting any natural resources, and any contamination of any property or
natural resources arising in connection with the generation, use, handling,
storage, transport or disposal of any such Hazardous Substances from any parcel
of Land, and irrespective of whether any of such activities were or will be
undertaken accordance with all Requirements of Law;

               provided, however, the Lessee shall not be required to indemnify
any Indemnified Person under this SECTION 11.2 for (1) Claims to the extent such
Claims arise solely out of events occurring after the expiration of the Term and
after the Lessee's discharge of all its obligations under the Lease and the
other Operative Agreements or (2) as to any Indemnified Person, any Claim to the
extent resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such
Indemnified Person. It is expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity
provided for herein shall survive the expiration or termination of, and shall be
separate and independent from, any remedy under the Lease or any other Operative
Agreement.

        11.3   GENERAL IMPOSITIONS INDEMNITY.

               (a)    INDEMNIFICATION. During the Construction Period, the
Lessee shall pay and assume liability for, and does hereby agree to indemnify,
protect and defend each Property and all Lessor Parties, and the Lessor agrees
to pay and assume liability for and does hereby indemnify, protect and defend
the other Indemnified Persons (for which obligation the Construction Agent
agrees to indemnify the Lessor), and hold it and them harmless against, all
Impositions on an After Tax Basis. During the Basic Term following the
Construction Period, and any Renewal Term, the Lessee shall pay and assume
liability for, and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect and defend each
Property and each Indemnified Person, and hold it and them harmless against, all
Impositions on an After Tax Basis.

               (b)    PAYMENTS.

                      (i)    Subject to the terms of SECTION 11.3(f), the Lessee
shall pay or cause to be paid all Impositions directly to the taxing authorities
where feasible and otherwise to the Indemnified Person, as appropriate, and the
Lessee shall at its own expense, upon such Indemnified Person's reasonable
request, furnish to such Indemnified Person copies of official receipts or other
satisfactory proof evidencing such payment.

                      (ii)   In the case of Impositions for which no contest is
conducted pursuant to SECTION 11.2(F) and which the Lessee pays directly to the
taxing authorities, the Lessee shall pay such Impositions thirty (30) days prior
to the latest time permitted by the relevant taxing authority for timely
payment. In the case of Impositions for which the Lessee reimburses an
Indemnified Person, the Lessee shall do so within twenty (20) days after receipt
by the Lessee of demand by such Indemnified Person describing in reasonable
detail the nature of the Imposition and the basis for the demand (including the
computation of the amount payable), but in no event shall the Lessee be required
to pay such reimbursement prior to thirty (30) days before the latest time
permitted by the relevant taxing authority for timely payment. In the case of
Impositions for which a contest is conducted pursuant to SECTION 11.2(f), the
Lessee shall pay such Impositions or reimburse such Indemnified Person for such
Impositions, to the extent not previously paid or reimbursed pursuant to
subsection (a), thirty (30) days prior to the latest time permitted by the
relevant taxing authority for timely payment after conclusion of all contests
under SECTION 11.2(f).

                      (iii)  Impositions imposed with respect to any Property
for a billing period during which the Lease expires or terminates (unless a
Renewal Term is to apply or the Lessee has exercised the Purchase Option or the
Maturity Date Purchase Option with respect to such Property) shall be adjusted
and prorated on a daily basis between the Lessee and the Lessor, whether or not
such Imposition is imposed before or after such expiration or termination and
each party shall pay or reimburse the other for each party's pro rata share
thereof.

                      (iv)   At the Lessee's request, the amount of any
indemnification payment by the Lessee pursuant to subsection (a) shall be
verified and certified by an independent public accounting firm mutually
acceptable to the Lessee and the Indemnified Person. The fees and expenses of
such independent public accounting firm shall be paid by the Lessee unless such
verification shall result in an adjustment in the Lessee's favor of 10% or more


                                       40
<PAGE>   47

of the payment as computed by the Indemnified Person, in which case such fee
shall be paid by the Indemnified Person.

               (c)    REPORTS AND RETURNS. (i) The Lessee shall be responsible
for preparing and filing any real and personal property or ad valorem tax
returns in respect of each Property. In case any other report or tax return
shall be required to be made with respect to any obligations of the Lessee under
or arising out of subsection (a) and of which the Lessee has knowledge or should
have knowledge, the Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall notify the
relevant Indemnified Person of such requirement and (except if such Indemnified
Person notifies the Lessee that such Indemnified Person intends to file such
report or return) (A) to the extent required or permitted by and consistent with
applicable law, make and file in its own name such return, statement or report;
and (B) in the case of any other such return, statement or report required to be
made in the name of such Indemnified Person, advise such Indemnified Person of
such fact and prepare such return, statement or report for filing by such
Indemnified Person or, where such return, statement or report shall be required
to reflect items in addition to any obligations of the Lessee under or arising
out of subsection (a), provide such Indemnified Person at the Lessee's expense
with information sufficient to permit such return, statement or report to be
properly made with respect to any obligations of the Lessee under or arising out
of subsection (a). Such Indemnified Person shall, upon the Lessee's request and
at the Lessee's expense, provide any data maintained by such Indemnified Person
(and not otherwise available to or within the control of the Lessee) with
respect to any Property which the Lessee may reasonably require to prepare any
required tax returns or reports. Each Indemnified Person agrees to use
commercially reasonable efforts to send to the Lessee a copy of any written
request or other notice that the Indemnified Person receives with respect to any
reports or returns required to be filed with respect to each Property or the
transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements, it being understood that
no Indemnified Person shall have any liability for failure to provide such
copies.

               (d)    INCOME INCLUSIONS. If as a result of the payment or
reimbursement by the Lessee of any expenses of the Lessor or the payment of any
Transaction Expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated
by the Operative Agreements, the Lessor, any Holder or any Lender or any of
their respective Affiliates shall suffer a net increase in any federal, state or
local income tax liability, the Lessee shall indemnify such Persons (without
duplication of any indemnification required by subsection (a)) on an After Tax
Basis for the amount of such increase. The calculation of any such net increase
shall take into account any current or future tax savings realized or reasonably
expected to be realized by such person in respect thereof, as well as any
interest, penalties and additions to tax payable by the Lessor, the Holder, the
Lender or such Affiliate, in respect thereof.

               (e)    WITHHOLDING TAXES. As between the Lessee on one hand, and
any Financing Party on the other hand, the Lessee shall be responsible for, and,
subject to the provisions of SECTIONS 12.2(g) and (h), the Lessee shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Financing Parties (without duplication of any
indemnification required by subsection (a)) on an After Tax Basis against, any
obligation for United States or foreign withholding taxes imposed in respect of
payments with respect to the Loans or the Holder Advances or with respect to
Rent payments under the Lease or payments of the Lease Balance, Permitted Lease
Investment Balance, or Purchase Option Price (and, if any Financing Party
receives a demand for such


                                       41
<PAGE>   48

payment from any taxing authority, the Lessee shall discharge such demand on
behalf of such Financing Party).

               (f)    CONTESTS OF IMPOSITIONS.

                      (i)    If a written claim is made against any Indemnified
Person or if any proceeding shall be commenced against such Indemnified Person
(including a written notice of such proceeding), for any Impositions, such
Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Lessee in writing and shall not
take action with respect to such claim or proceeding without the consent of the
Lessee for thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice by the Lessee;
provided, however, that, in the case of any such claim or proceeding, if action
shall be required by law or regulation to be taken prior to the end of such
30-day period, such Indemnified Person shall, in such notice to the Lessee,
inform the Lessee of such shorter period, and no action shall be taken with
respect to such claim or proceeding without the consent of the Lessee before two
days before the end of such shorter period; provided, further, that the failure
of such Indemnified Person to give the notices referred to in this sentence
shall not diminish the Lessee's obligation hereunder except to the extent such
failure precludes the Lessee from contesting all or part of such claim.

                      (ii)   If, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such
notice from the Indemnified Person (or such shorter period as the Indemnified
Person has notified the Lessee as required by law or regulation for the
Indemnified Person to commence such contest), the Lessee shall request in
writing that such Indemnified Person contest such Imposition, the Indemnified
Person shall, at the expense of the Lessee, in good faith conduct and control
such contest (including by pursuit of appeals) relating to the validity,
applicability or amount of such Impositions (provided, however, that (A) if such
contest involves a tax other than a tax on net income and can be pursued
independently from any other proceeding involving a tax liability of such
Indemnified Person, the Indemnified Person, at the Lessee's request, shall allow
the Lessee to conduct and control such contest and (B) in the case of any
contest, the Indemnified Person may request the Lessee to conduct and control
such contest) by, in the sole discretion of the Person conducting and
controlling such contest, (1) resisting payment thereof, (2) not paying the same
except under protest, if protest is necessary and proper, or (3) if the payment
be made, using reasonable efforts to obtain a refund thereof in appropriate
administrative and judicial proceedings.

                      (iii)  The party controlling any contest shall consult in
good faith with the non-controlling party and shall keep the non-controlling
party reasonably informed as to the conduct of such contest; provided, that all
decisions ultimately shall be made in the sole discretion of the controlling
party. The parties agree that an Indemnified Person may at any time decline to
take further action with respect to the contest of any Imposition and may settle
such contest if such Indemnified Person shall waive its rights to any indemnity
from the Lessee that otherwise would be payable in respect of such claim and
shall pay to the Lessee any amount previously paid or advanced by the Lessee
pursuant to this SECTION 11.2 by way of indemnification or advance for the
payment of an Imposition other than expenses of such contest.


                                       42
<PAGE>   49

                      (iv)   Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
SECTION 11.2, an Indemnified Person shall not be required to take any action and
the Lessee shall not be permitted to contest any Impositions in its own name or
that of the Indemnified Person unless (A) the Lessee shall have agreed to pay in
writing and shall pay to such Indemnified Person on demand and on an After Tax
Basis all reasonable costs, losses and expenses that such Indemnified Person
actually incurs in connection with contesting such Impositions, including all
reasonable legal, accounting and investigatory fees and disbursements and the
contested claim if ultimately required to be paid, (B) in the case of a claim
that must be pursued in the name of an Indemnified Person (or an Affiliate
thereof), the amount of the potential indemnity exceeds $50,000, (C) the
Indemnified Person shall have reasonably determined that the action to be taken
will not result in any material danger of sale, forfeiture or loss of any
Property or the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof or interest therein,
will not interfere with the payment of Rent, and will not result in risk of
criminal liability, (D) if such contest shall involve the payment of the
Imposition prior to the contest, the Lessee shall provide to the Indemnified
Person an interest-free advance in an amount equal to the Imposition that the
Indemnified Person is required to pay (with no additional net after-tax cost to
such Indemnified Person), (E) the Lessee shall have provided to such Indemnified
Person an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by the Lessee and
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person stating that a reasonable
basis exists to contest such claim (or, in the case of an appeal of an adverse
determination, an opinion of such counsel to the effect that the position
asserted in such appeal will more likely than not prevail), and (F) no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In no event shall an Indemnified
Person be required to appeal an adverse judicial determination to the United
States Supreme Court. In addition, an Indemnified Person shall not be required
to contest any claim in its name (or that of an Affiliate) if the subject matter
thereof shall be of a continuing nature and shall have previously been decided
adversely by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to the contest
provisions of this SECTION 11.2, unless there shall have been a change in law
(or interpretation thereof) and the Indemnified Person shall have received, at
the Lessee's expense, an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by the
Indemnified Person and reasonably acceptable to the Lessee stating that as a
result of such change in law (or interpretation thereof), it is more likely than
not that the Indemnified Person will prevail in such contest.

               (g)    DOCUMENTATION OF WITHHOLDING STATUS. Each Financing Party
and each Trust Company (or any successor thereto or transferee thereof) that is
organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of
America shall:

                      (i)    on or before the date it becomes a party to any
Operative Agreement, deliver to the Lessee any certificates, documents or other
evidence that shall be required by the Code or Treasury Regulations issued
pursuant thereto to establish its exemption from United States Federal
withholding requirements, including two (2) valid, duly completed, original
copies of (A) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or successor applicable form,
or (B) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or successor applicable form,
properly and duly executed, certifying in each case that such party is entitled
to receive payments pursuant to the Operative Agreements without deduction or
withholding of United States Federal income taxes; and

                      (ii)   or before the date that any such form described
above expires or becomes obsolete, or after the occurrence of any event
requiring a change in the most recent such


                                       43
<PAGE>   50

form previously delivered to the Lessee, deliver to the Lessee two (2) further
valid, duly completed, original copies of any such form or certification,
properly and duly executed.

               (h)    LIMITATION ON TAX INDEMNIFICATION. The Lessee shall not be
required to indemnify any Indemnified Person, or to pay any increased amounts to
any Indemnified Person or tax authority with respect to any Impositions pursuant
to this SECTION 11.3 to the extent that (i) any obligation to withhold, deduct,
or pay amounts with respect to Tax existed on the date such Indemnified Person
became a party to any Operative Agreement (and, in such case, the Lessee may
deduct and withhold such Tax from payments pursuant to the Operative
Agreements), or (ii) such Indemnified Person fails to comply with the provisions
of SECTION 11.2(g) (and, in such case, the Lessee may deduct and withhold all
Taxes required by law as a result of such noncompliance from payments made by
the Lessee pursuant to the Operative Agreements). With respect to any transferee
of any Financing Party (including a transfer resulting from any change in the
designation of the lending office of a Financing Party), the transferee shall
not be entitled to any greater payment or indemnification under this SECTION
11.3 than the transferor would have been entitled to.

        11.4   LIBOR LENDING UNLAWFUL. Notwithstanding any other provision
herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Closing Date shall
make it unlawful for any Financing Party to make, continue or maintain LIBOR
Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances as contemplated by the Operative Agreements, (a)
such Financing Party shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to
the Lessee, the Lessor and the Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever
such circumstances no longer exist), (b) such Financing Party shall undertake
reasonable efforts to propose a money rate comparable to LIBOR (the "LIBOR
Alternative"), (c) the commitment of such Lender or Holder, as the case may be,
hereunder to make, continue or maintain LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances
shall forthwith be canceled and, until such time as it shall no longer be
unlawful for such Financing Party to make, continue or maintain LIBOR Loans or
LIBOR Holder Advances, such Financing Party shall then have a commitment only to
make or maintain Loans or the Holder Advances based on ABR or the LIBOR
Alternative, if any, when a LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Holder Advance is requested and
(d) such Financing Party's Loans and Holder Advances then outstanding as LIBOR
Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances, if any, shall be converted automatically to
Loans or Holder Advances based on ABR or the LIBOR Alternative, if any, on the
respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such
Loans and Holder Advances or within such earlier period as required by law. If
any such conversion of LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances occurs on a day
which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect
thereto, the Lessee shall pay to such Financing Party such amounts, if any, as
may be required pursuant to SECTION 11.6. In any such case, interest and
principal (if any) shall be payable contemporaneously with the related LIBOR
Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances of the other Financing Parties.

        11.5   DEPOSITS UNAVAILABLE. If any of the Financing Parties shall have
determined that:

               (a)    Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the
relevant Interest Period are not available to the Financing Party in its
relevant market; or


                                       44
<PAGE>   51

               (b)    by reason of circumstances affecting the Financing Party's
relevant market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate
or Yield, as the case may be, applicable to such Financing Party's LIBOR Loans
or LIBOR Holder Advances;

               (c)    then, upon notice from such Financing Party to the Lessee
and the other Financing Parties, (x) the obligations of the Financing Parties to
make or continue any Loans or the Holder Advances as, or to convert any Loans or
the Holder Advance into, LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances shall be
suspended, and (y) each outstanding LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Holder Advance shall
automatically convert into a Loan or Holder Advance based on ABR or the LIBOR
Alternative, if any, on the last day of the current Interest Period applicable
thereto.

        11.6   INCREASED COSTS, ETC.

               (a)    If the adoption of or any change in a Requirement of Law
or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to any Financing
Party, or compliance by any Financing Party with any request or directive
(whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if
later, the date on which such Financing Party becomes a Financing Party):

                      (i)    shall subject such Financing Party to any
Imposition whatsoever with respect to any LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances
made, continued or maintained by it or its obligation to make, continue or
maintain LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances, or change the basis of taxation
of payments to such Financing Party in respect thereof; or

                      (ii)   shall impose, modify or hold applicable any
reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets
held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, Loans and the
Holder Advances, advances or other extensions of credit by, or any other
acquisition of funds by, any office of such Financing Party which is not
otherwise included in the determination of the Adjusted LIBOR hereunder; or

                      (iii)  shall impose on such Financing Party any other
condition (excluding any Tax of any kind) whatsoever in connection with the
Operative Agreements;

                      (iv)   and the result of any of the foregoing is to
increase the cost to such Financing Party, by an amount which such Financing
Party reasonably deems to be material, of making, continuing or maintaining
LIBOR Advances or LIBOR Holder Advances or to reduce any amount receivable
hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Lessee
from such Financing Party, through the Lessor or the Agent, in accordance
herewith, during the Construction Period the Participants shall fund through
Advances and capitalize, and during the Basic Term following the Construction
Period and any Renewal Term the Lessee shall pay such Financing Party any
additional amounts necessary to compensate such Financing Party for such
increased cost or reduced amount receivable; provided, that, in any such case,
the Lessee may elect to convert the LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances made by
such Financing Party hereunder to Loans or Holder Advances based on ABR or the
LIBOR Alternative, if any, by giving the Lessor and the Agent at least one (1)
Business Day's notice of such election, in which case during the Construction
Period, the Lessor, and during the Term, the Lessee shall promptly pay to such
Financing Party, upon demand, without duplication, such


                                       45
<PAGE>   52

amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to SECTION 11.7. All payments
required by this SECTION 11.6 shall be made by the Lessee within ten (10)
Business Days after demand by the affected Financing Party. If any Financing
Party becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this
subsection, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Lessee, through the
Lessor and Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this clause
(a) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event,
(y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event, and
(z) as to the additional amount demanded by such Financing Party and a
reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof (including the method
by which such Financing Party allocated such amounts to the Lessee). Such a
certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this clause
submitted by such Financing Party, through the Agent and the Lessor, to the
Lessee shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and the
Holder Advance and all other amounts payable hereunder.

               (b)    Each Financing Party shall use its reasonable efforts to
reduce or eliminate any claim for compensation pursuant to this SECTION 11.6,
including a change in the office of such Financing Party at which its
obligations related to this Agreement are maintained if such change will avoid
the need for or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the
reasonable judgment of such Financing Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to it.
If any such claim for compensation shall not be eliminated or waived, the Lessee
shall have the right to replace the affected Financing Party with a new
financial institution that shall succeed to the rights of such Financing Party
under this Agreement; provided, that such Financing Party shall not be replaced
hereunder until it has been paid in full such claim and all other amounts owed
to it hereunder.

        11.7   FUNDING LOSSES. During the Construction Period, the Lessee agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless each Lessor Person and the Lessor agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each other Indemnified Person, and thereafter the
Lessee agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person, on an
After Tax Basis, from any loss or expense which such Indemnified Person may
sustain or incur (other than through such Person's own gross negligence or
willful misconduct) as a consequence of (a) default by the Lessee in making a
borrowing of or continuation of Loans or Holder Advances which are LIBOR Loans
or LIBOR Holder Advances after Lessee has given a notice requesting the same in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Lessee in
making any prepayment of a Loan or Holder Advance which is a LIBOR Loans or
LIBOR Holder Advances after the Lessee has given a notice thereof in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement, or (c) the making of a prepayment of
Loans or Holder Advances which are LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Holder Advances on a day
which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.

        11.8   CAPITAL ADEQUACY.

               (a)    If the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation
regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by any Participant with any request or directive
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case made subsequent to
the Closing Date, has or will have


                                       46
<PAGE>   53

the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Participant's or its parent
company's capital by an amount such Participant reasonably deems to be material,
as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below
that which such Participant or its parent company could have achieved but for
such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration
such Participant's or its parent company's policies with respect to capital
adequacy), then, upon notice from such Participant, (i) during the Construction
Period the Participants shall fund through Advances and capitalize, and (ii)
thereafter, the Lessee shall pay to such Participant, such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Participant and its parent company on or After
Tax Basis for such reduction (it being understood that such parent company shall
not be reimbursed to the extent its subsidiary Participant is reimbursed by the
Lessee in connection with the same or a similar law, rule, regulation, change,
request or directive applicable to such Participant). All payments required by
this SECTION 11.8 shall be made by the Lessee within 10 Business Days after
demand by the affected Participant. The Lessee shall not be obligated to
reimburse any Participant for any reduced return incurred more than 120 days
after the date that such Participant receives actual notice of such reduced
return unless such Participant gives notice thereof to the Lessee in accordance
with this SECTION 11.8 during such 120 day period. If any Participant becomes
entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall
provide prompt notice thereof to the Lessee, through the Agent and/or the
Lessor, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this clause (a) has
occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to
the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) as to the
additional amount demanded by such Participant and a reasonably detailed
explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional
amounts payable pursuant to this clause submitted by such Participant, through
the Agent and/or the Lessor, to the Lessee shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this
Participation Agreement and the other Operative Agreements and the payment of
the Loans, Holder Advances and all other amounts payable hereunder and
thereunder.

               (b)    Each Participant shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to reduce or eliminate any claim for compensation pursuant to this
SECTION 11.8, including a change in the office of such Participant at which its
obligations related to the Operative Agreements are maintained if such change
will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will
not, in the reasonable judgment of such Participant, be otherwise
disadvantageous to it. If any such claim for compensation shall not be
eliminated or waived, the Lessee shall have the right to replace the affected
Participant with a new financial institution that shall succeed to the rights of
such Participant under the Operative Agreements; provided, however, that such
Participant shall not be replaced hereunder until it has been paid in full such
claim and all other amounts owed to it hereunder.

        11.9   SPECIAL TAX INDEMNITY.

               (a)    Lessee shall pay and assume all liability for and does
hereby agree to indemnify each Indemnified Person and, in each case, their
accountants, lawyers, and other advisors (each, a "Tax Registration Indemnitee")
on an After Tax Basis for any tax, addition to tax, penalty or other cost as a
result of a breach, inaccuracy or incorrectness of the representation found in
SECTION 6.3(dd); provided, however, that this indemnity shall not apply to any
tax, additional tax, penalty or other cost arising from (i) the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of


                                       47
<PAGE>   54

such Tax Registration Indemnitee; (ii) the inaccuracy or incompleteness of any
information provided by such Tax Registration Indemnitee to Lessee to the extent
such information is included in the registration form or other related materials
and to the extent such failure results in the imposition of increased taxes,
additions to tax, penalties or other costs; or (iii) the activities of such Tax
Registration Indemnitee unrelated to the transactions contemplated herein that
result in the transactions contemplated herein being deemed to be a confidential
corporate tax shelter if the transactions contemplated herein would not
otherwise have been deemed to be a confidential corporate tax shelter.

               (b)    If a written claim is made or any proceeding is commenced
by the Internal Revenue Service against any Tax Registration Indemnitee for any
amount as to which Lessee has an indemnity obligation pursuant to this SECTION
11.9, such Tax Registration Indemnitee agrees to notify the Lessee promptly in
writing of such proposed claim or proceeding, but the failure to provide such
notice shall not release Lessee from its indemnity obligation hereunder except
to the extent that it is materially adversely affected thereby. Lessee shall be
entitled, at its expense, to require that any amount for which it may be
obligated to indemnify a Tax Registration Indemnitee pursuant to this SECTION
11.9 be contested and to withhold payment during pendency of such contest (if
such forbearance is permitted by law), provided, that Lessee will pay any cost,
expense, interest or penalty associated with such forbearance. A Tax
Registration Indemnitee shall have control over any contest commenced pursuant
to this SECTION 11.9(b) but Lessee shall have, upon request, the right to
participate (including its counsel) in all proceedings and such Tax Registration
Indemnitee shall keep Lessee informed as to all material developments in such
contest and afford Lessee an opportunity to discuss with such Tax Registration
Indemnitee Lessee's interests with respect to such contest.

               (c)    Lessee and each Tax Registration Indemnitee agree to
cooperate with each other with respect to maintaining any required documentation
or other information in connection with the tax shelter registration provisions
of Code Section 6111, the investor list provisions of Code Section 6112 and the
disclosure statement provisions of Code Section 6011 (and any of the regulations
thereunder).

        11.10  INDEMNITY PAYMENTS IN ADDITION TO LEASE OBLIGATIONS. The
Construction Agent and Lessee acknowledge and agree that the Construction
Agent's and Lessee's obligations to make indemnity payments under this SECTION
11 are separate from, in addition to, and do not reduce their obligations under
the Lease.

        11.11  LESSOR INDEMNIFICATION.

               (a)    INDEMNIFIED LOSSES. During the Construction Period, the
Lessor, for and on behalf of the Lessor Parties, shall pay, indemnify, protect,
defend, save and keep harmless each Indemnified Person (other than the Lessor
Parties, their Affiliates, successors, assigns, directors, shareholders,
partners, officers, employees and agents) (a "Non-Lessor Party") on an After Tax
Basis from and against any Losses (as hereinafter defined) arising from Covered
Matters (as hereinafter defined), subject to the limitations set forth in this
SECTION 11.11.

               (b)    DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this SECTION 11.11, the
following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:


                                       48
<PAGE>   55

                      "Covered Matters" means each of the matters set forth in
               SECTION 11.1(b) or under any of SECTIONS 11.2, 11.3(a) or 11.7
               ("Indemnification Sections").

                      "Losses" means each of the Claims, costs, losses or
               Impositions indemnified against pursuant to any of the
               Indemnification Sections and arising during the Construction
               Period.

               (c)    NO INDEMNIFICATION FOR CERTAIN MATTERS. The Lessor shall
not be required to indemnify or hold harmless any Non-Lessor Party hereunder
against any matter referred to in clause (a) of this SECTION 11.11 (i) to the
extent such party would be required to be indemnified by the Construction Agent
pursuant to any Indemnification Section for such matter or (ii) to the extent of
the exceptions or exclusions from indemnification contained in any of the
Indemnification Sections or in SECTION 11.1(a).

               (d)    LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION BY LESSOR PARTIES. The
Lessor's obligation to indemnify and hold harmless any Non-Lessor Party under
this SECTION 11.11:

                      (i)    is not an individual or personal obligation of the
Lessor, but solely its obligation in its capacity as a Lessor, and nothing
herein shall be construed as creating any liability on any Lessor Party,
individually or personally, to pay, indemnify or hold harmless any Non-Lessor
Party under this Section;

                      (ii)   is not an obligation binding on the Lessor, except
to the extent of any payments received by the Lessor Parties pursuant to an
Indemnification Section;

                      (iii)  shall be paid and discharged solely and exclusively
from amounts received by the Lessor pursuant to an Indemnification Section and
it is expressly agreed by each Non-Lessor Party that the sole recourse of each
such Person for payment or discharge of the indemnification obligations created
under this SECTION 11.11 shall be to such amounts paid by the Construction Agent
pursuant to an Indemnification Section; and

                      (iv)   is the sole and exclusive right of each Non-Lessor
Party against the Lessor Parties, and any right to proceed against any Lessor
Party individually or otherwise under common law, federal or state securities
laws or otherwise for indemnification or contribution in connection with the
matters covered by this SECTION 11.11 is hereby expressly waived by each
Non-Lessor Party (other than claims that may be made against any Lessor Party,
individually or personally, for fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct).

Nothing in this SECTION 11.11 is intended as or should be construed as a
limitation on the right of any Non-Lessor Party to make indemnification,
contribution or other claims of any kind against the Construction Agent, to the
extent that such claims otherwise may be made, with respect to any matter,
including indemnification for Losses of the type referred to in this SECTION
11.11.

               (e)    REPAYMENT TO THE LESSOR PARTIES. To the extent that any
payments made pursuant to any Indemnification Section are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to
be repaid by the Lessor to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other
Person under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then to such
extent, the Non-Lessor Parties who received any such payments from the Lessor
(or any portion


                                       49
<PAGE>   56

thereof) shall repay any such amounts to the Lessor, or as may otherwise be
directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

               (f)    SURVIVAL, REINSTATEMENT. The indemnification obligations
of the Lessor under this SECTION 11.11 shall survive and be reinstated to the
same extent, for the same period and in the same manner as the indemnification
obligations of the Construction Agent under the applicable Indemnification
Section.

               (g)    INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES. The right of any Non-Lessor
Party to seek indemnification from the Lessor under this SECTION 11.11 is
subject to and conditioned upon compliance by any such Non-Lessor Party with the
notice, cooperation, appointment of counsel, contest rights and other provisions
in the Indemnification Sections as fully as if such Sections were set forth
herein, except that any reference in the Indemnification Sections to the
Construction Agent/Lessee shall be deemed to be a reference to the Lessor or, if
the Lessor so directs in any case, the Lessor and/or the Construction Agent for
purposes of this SECTION 11.11.

        11.12  INDEMNIFICATIONS PROVIDED BY THE LESSOR IN FAVOR OF THE OTHER
INDEMNIFIED PERSONS. To the extent the Lessee or the Construction Agent is not
obligated to indemnify each Indemnified Person with respect to the various
matters described in this SECTION 11, the Lessor shall provide such indemnities
(but only to the extent amounts sufficient to pay such indemnity are funded by
the Lenders and the Holders) in favor of each Indemnified Person in accordance
with this SECTION 11.12 and shall pay all such amounts owed with respect to this
SECTION 11.12 with amounts advanced by the Lenders and the Holders (a) to the
extent, but only to the extent, amounts are available therefor with respect to
the Available Commitments and (b) unless each Lender and each Holder has
declined in writing to fund such amount. Notwithstanding any other provision in
any other Operative Agreement to the contrary, all amounts so advanced shall be
deemed added to the Project Costs.

        Whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be
consummated, the Trust hereby assumes liability for and agrees to defend,
indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person on an After Tax Basis from
and against any Claims, which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
an Indemnified Person by any third party, including Claims arising from the
negligence of an Indemnified Person (but not to the extent such Claims arise
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person
itself, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, as opposed to gross
negligence or willful misconduct imputed to such Indemnified Person or breach of
such Indemnified Person's obligations under this Agreement, the Lease or any
other Operative Agreement) in any way relating to or arising or alleged to arise
out of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement,
the Lease or any other Operative Agreement or on or with respect to any Property
or any component thereof, including Claims in any way relating to or arising or
alleged to arise out of the matters set forth in SECTION 11.1.

        The Trust shall pay and assume liability for, and does hereby agree to
indemnify, protect and defend each Property and all Indemnified Persons, and
hold them harmless against, all Impositions on an After Tax Basis, and all
payments pursuant to the Operative Agreements shall be made free and clear of
and without deduction for any and all present and future Impositions.

        13.3   COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed by the parties

shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but
one and the same instrument.

        13.4   TERMINATIONS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC.; UNANIMOUS VOTE MATTERS.
Each Operative Agreement may be terminated, amended, supplemented, waived or
modified only by an instrument in writing signed by, subject to Article X of the
Trust Agreement regarding termination of the Trust Agreement, the Majority
Secured Parties and the Lessee (to the extent Lessee is a party to such
Operative Agreement, and to the extent Lessee is not a party to such Operative
Agreement but is expressly accorded rights in a particular provision therein,
such provision may be terminated, amended, supplemented, waived or modified only
by an instrument in writing signed by the Majority Secured Parties and Lessee).
In addition, the Unanimous Vote Matters shall require the consent of each Lender
and each Holder affected by such matter.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such termination, amendment,
supplement, waiver or modification shall, without the consent of the Agent and,
to the extent affected thereby, each Lender and each Holder (collectively, the
"Unanimous Vote Matters") (i) reduce the amount of any Note or any Certificate,
extend the scheduled date of maturity of any Note, extend the scheduled
Expiration Date, extend any payment date of any Note or Certificate, reduce the

post-default increase in interest rates or Holder Yields), modify the priority
of or release any Lien in favor of the Agent under any Security Document,
subordinate any obligation owed to any Lender or Holder, elect to decline the
funding of any Transaction Expense with respect to SECTION 7, elect to decline
the funding of any indemnity payment by the Trust with respect to SECTION 11.8
or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender's Commitment
or the Holder Commitment of any Holder; or (ii) terminate, amend, supplement,
waive or modify any provision of this SECTION 13.4 or reduce the percentages
specified in the definitions of Majority Lenders, Majority Holders or Majority
Secured Parties, or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Trust of any of
its rights and obligations under any Credit Document or release a material
portion of the Collateral (except in accordance with SECTION 9.5) or release
Lessee from its obligations under any Operative Agreement or otherwise alter any
payment obligations of Lessee to the Lessor or any Financing Party under the
Operative Agreements; or (iii) terminate, amend, supplement, waive or modify any
provision of Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement (which shall also require the
consent of the Agent). Any such termination, amendment, supplement, waiver or
modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and the Holders and
shall be binding upon all the parties to this Agreement. In the case of any
waiver, each party to this Agreement shall be restored to its former position
and rights under the Operative Agreements, and any Default or Event of Default
waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any
right consequent thereon.

        If at a time when the conditions precedent set forth in the Operative
Agreements to any Loan are, in the opinion of the Agent, satisfied, any Lender
shall fail to fulfill its obligations to make such Loan (any such Lender, a
"Defaulting Lender") then, for so long as such failure shall continue, the
Defaulting Lender shall (unless the Lessee and the Majority Lenders, determined
as if the Defaulting Lender were not a "Lender," shall otherwise consent in
writing) be deemed for all purposes relating to terminations, amendments,
supplements, waivers or modifications under the Operative Agreements to have no
Loans, shall not be treated as a "Lender" when performing the computation of
Majority Lenders or Majority Secured Parties, and shall have no rights under
this SECTION 13.4; provided that any action taken pursuant to the second
paragraph of this SECTION 13.4 shall not be effective as against the Defaulting
Lender.

        If at a time when the conditions precedent set forth in the Operative
Agreements to any Holder Advance are, in the opinion of the Majority Holders,
satisfied, any Holder shall fail to fulfill its obligations to make such Holder
Advance (any such Holder, a "Defaulting Holder") then, for so long as such
failure shall continue, the Defaulting Holder shall (unless the Lessee and the
Majority Holders, determined as if the Defaulting Holder were not a "Holder,"
shall otherwise consent in writing) be deemed for all purposes relating to
terminations, amendments, supplements, waivers or modifications under the
Operative Agreements to have no Holder Advances, shall not be treated as a
"Holder" when performing the computation of Majority Holders or Majority Secured
Parties, and shall have no rights under this SECTION 13.4; provided that any
action taken pursuant to the second paragraph of this SECTION 13.4 shall not be
effective as against the Defaulting Holder.

        13.7   GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL;
VENUE.

               (a)    THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED, INTERPRETED AND ENFORCED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO RULES
RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAW (OTHER THAN GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION
5-1401). Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any
other Operative Agreement may be brought in the courts of the State of New York
in the City of New York or of the United States for the Southern District of New
York, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the parties to
this Agreement hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its
property, generally and unconditionally, the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such
courts. Each of the parties to this Agreement further irrevocably consents to
the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such
action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, to it at the address set out for notices pursuant to
SECTION 13.2, such service to become effective three (3) days after such
mailing. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any party to serve process in
any other manner permitted by Law or to commence legal proceedings or to
otherwise proceed against any party in any other jurisdiction.

               (b)    EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WAIVES TRIAL
BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER
OPERATIVE AGREEMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

               (c)    Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably
waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue
of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection
with this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement brought in the courts
referred to in subsection (a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives and
agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or
proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

               (d)    The Agent on behalf of the Lenders and the Holders shall
have the right to proceed in any court of proper jurisdiction or by self-help to
exercise or prosecute the following remedies, as applicable (i) all rights to
foreclose against any real or personal property or other security by exercising
a power of sale granted under any Operative Agreement or under applicable Law or
by judicial foreclosure and sale, including a proceeding to confirm the sale;
(ii) all rights of self-help including peaceful occupation of real property and
collection of rents, set-off and peaceful possession of personal property; (iii)

                                       58
<PAGE>   65

remedies including injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment,
appointment of receiver and filing an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding; and
(iv) when applicable, a judgment by confession of judgment. Preservation of
these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to grant similar
remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute.

The parties to this Agreement and/or any other Operative Agreement agree that
they shall not have a remedy of special, punitive or exemplary damages against
any other party in any Dispute and hereby waive any right or claim to special,
punitive or exemplary damages they have now or which may arise in the future in
connection with any Dispute.

        13.8   SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited
or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

        13.9   LIABILITY LIMITED.

               (a)    The Lenders, the Agent, the Lessee, the Trust Companies,
the Trust and the Holders each acknowledge and agree that the Trust Companies
shall not be liable or accountable under any circumstances whatsoever for or on
account of any statements, representations, warranties, covenants or obligations
stated to be those of the Trust, Borrower or Lessor except for their own gross
negligence or willful misconduct and as otherwise expressly provided herein or
in the other Operative Agreements.

               (b)    Anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the
Credit Agreement, the Notes or in any other Operative Agreement notwithstanding,
no Exculpated Person shall be personally liable in any respect for any liability
or obligation arising hereunder or in any other Operative Agreement including
the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Notes, or for monetary
damages for the breach of performance of any of the covenants contained in the
Credit Agreement, the Notes, this Agreement, the Security Documents or any of
the other Operative Agreements. The Lenders, the Holders and the Agent agree
that, in the event any remedies under any Operative Agreement are pursued,
neither the Lenders, the Holders nor the Agent shall have any recourse against
any Exculpated Person, for any deficiency, loss or Claim for monetary damages or
otherwise resulting therefrom and recourse shall be had solely and exclusively
against the Trust Estate (excluding Excepted Payments) and the Lessee (with
respect to the Lessee's obligations under the Operative Agreements); but nothing
contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse against or the enforcement
of remedies against the Trust Estate (excluding Excepted Payments) in respect of
any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained herein and/or in
any other Operative Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section,
nothing in any Operative Agreement shall: (i) constitute a waiver, release or
discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes and/or the
Certificates arising under any Operative Agreement or secured by any Operative
Agreement, but the same shall continue until paid or discharged; (ii) relieve
any Exculpated Person from liability and responsibility for (but only to the
extent of the damages arising by reason of): active waste knowingly committed by

of the moneys misappropriated, misapplied or not turned over) (A) except for
Excepted Payments, misappropriation or misapplication by the Lessor (i.e.,
application in a manner contrary to any of the Operative Agreements) of any
insurance proceeds or condemnation award paid or delivered to the Lessor by any
Person other than the Agent, or (B) except for Excepted Payments, any rent or
other income received by the Lessor from Lessee that is not turned over to the
Agent; or (iv) affect or in any way limit the Agent's rights and remedies under
any Operative Agreement with respect to the Rents and rights and powers of the
Agent under the Operative Agreements or to obtain a judgment against the
Lessee's interest in the Properties or the Agent's rights and powers to obtain a
judgment against the Lessor or the Lessee (provided, that no deficiency judgment
or other money judgment shall be enforced against any Exculpated Person except

Payments) or to the extent the Lessor may be liable as otherwise contemplated in
clauses (II) and (III) of this SECTION 13.9(b)).

Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Security Documents and the other
Operative Agreements and (ii) of the Lessee under the Operative Agreements have

entitled to (a) terminate the Lease and (b) receive all amounts then held under
the Operative Agreements and all proceeds with respect to each Property. Upon
the termination of the Lease pursuant to the foregoing clause (a), the Trust

Lessee.

        13.11  FURTHER ASSURANCES. The parties hereto shall promptly cause to be
taken, executed, acknowledged or delivered, at the sole expense of the Lessee,
all such further acts, conveyances, documents and assurances as the other

Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including the
preparation, execution and filing of any and all Uniform Commercial Code
financing statements, filings of the Deed of Trust and other filings or
registrations which the parties hereto may from time to time request to be filed
or effected). The Lessee, at its own expense and without need of any prior
request from any other party, shall take such action as may be reasonably
requested (including any action specified in the preceding sentence), in order
to maintain and protect all security interests provided for hereunder or under
any other Operative Agreement. In addition, in connection with the sale or other
disposition of any Property or any portion thereof, the Lessee agrees to execute

Maturity Date, direct a written request to the Lessor and the Agent that the

agreeable to the Lessor, the Agent, the Lenders, the Holders and the Lessee. Any
renewal term shall be effective only upon the consent of all Financing Parties
and each Financing Party may grant or deny its consent to a renewal of the Lease
in its sole discretion.
