an amount equal to $10,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof and there must
not have been more than one prior increase in the Commitment during the
preceding twelve months. Any such increase in the Commitment shall be effective

excess of $150,000,000. Upon the concurrence of the Company, Edison and GECC, in
their sole and absolute discretion, this Agreement shall be amended to reflect
the increased Commitment. In the event that (x) the Seller requests an increase
in the Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.04(b), such request is accompanied
by financial and portfolio projections supporting the amount of such increase,
the Seller has provided the Company with such information as the Company shall
reasonably request in connection with its approval process, and the sum of the
outstanding Commercial Paper and Loans on the date of such request is in excess
of $142,500,000 and (y) GECC, Edison and the Company shall not have agreed to
such increase within 90 days following the date of such request, the Seller
shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, without any premium or penalty
whatsoever, by providing the Company with 120 days' prior written notice
thereof.

         Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms,

         interest, encumbrance or other right, title or interest of any Person.
         Each Receivable existing on the Initial Purchase Date has been, and in
         the case of Additional Receivables sold hereafter such Additional
         Receivables will be, on the applicable Purchase Date, conveyed to the
         Company free and clear of any Lien.

                  (e) There is no effective financing statement (or similar
         statement or instrument of registration under the law of any
         jurisdiction) now on file or registered in any public office filed by
         or against the Seller, the Parent or any Subsidiary or purporting to be
         filed on behalf of the Seller, the Parent or any Subsidiary covering

         required to perfect the title of the Company in each Receivable sold
         hereunder have been accomplished and are in full force and effect and
         the Seller shall at its expense perform all acts and execute all
         documents reasonably requested by the Company at any time and from time

                  (g) All Receivables sold and assigned to the Company on the
         Initial Purchase Date are Eligible Receivables and all Receivables sold
         and assigned to the Company on any Purchase Date subsequent to the

         statements described in Section 3.01(f) and, in the case of the
         Additional Receivables hereafter sold to the Company and the proceeds
         thereof, upon the transfer thereof to the Company, the Company shall
         have a first priority perfected security or ownership interest in such
         property. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither the
         Seller nor the Parent nor any Subsidiary of the Parent nor any Person
         claiming through or under the Seller, the Parent or any Subsidiary of
         the Parent has any claim to or interest in the Collection Account or
         the Cash Collateral Account.

         this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein
         contemplated will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the
         terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under or, except as
         contemplated hereby and by the Funding Agreement, result in the
         creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of
         the property or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of, any
         indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement
         or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound
         or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject,
         nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of the
         certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other similar documents of the
         Company or of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court
         or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or
         any of its properties or assets; and no consent, approval,
         authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any

         delivered by the Company and constitutes the valid and legally binding
         obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance
         with its terms, except that the enforceability thereof may be subject
         to (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,

                  (c) The Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the
         Company harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage,

         settlement) to which the Company may become subject insofar as such
         loss, liability, damage, judgment, claim, deficiency or expense arises

         Company of its obligations hereunder. The obligations of the Seller
         under this Section 3.03(c) shall be considered to have been relied upon

                  (d) The Seller shall defend each Receivable sold by it to the
         Company and not repurchased by it against all claims and demands of all
         Persons at any time claiming the same or any interest therein adverse
         to the Company through the Seller, the Parent or a Subsidiary.

                  (e) The Seller will not execute any effective financing
         statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the
         laws of any jurisdiction) or statements relating to any Receivables
         sold to the Company, except any financing statements filed or to be
         filed in respect of and covering the purchase of the Receivables by the
         Company pursuant to this Agreement and the security interest created in
         favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Funding Agreement.

                   (f) The Seller shall at its expense perform all acts and
         execute all documents reasonably requested by the Company at any time
         to evidence, perfect, maintain and enforce the title or the security
         interest of the Company or the Collateral Agent in the Receivables and
         the priority thereof. The Seller will, at the reasonable request of a
         duly authorized officer of the Company, execute and deliver financing
         statements relating to or covering the Receivables sold to the Company
         (reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company) and,
         where permitted by law, the Seller will authorize the Company to file
         one or more financing statements signed only by the Company.

                  (g) The Seller shall use all reasonable measures to prevent or
         minimize any loss being realized on a Receivable in which the Company
         owns an interest and shall take all reasonable steps to recover the
         full amount of such loss. The Seller shall, at its own expense, take
         such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security
         interest created by each Receivable in the related goods and
         merchandise subject thereto. The Seller shall use its best efforts,
         consistent with prudent servicing procedures, to repossess or otherwise
         convert the ownership of the goods or merchandise securing any
         Receivable which becomes an Uncollectible Receivable. The Seller shall
         follow such practices and procedures for servicing the Receivables as
         would be customary and usual for a prudent commercial lender under
         similar circumstances, including using reasonable efforts to realize
         upon any recourse to the dealer of the goods or merchandise securing a
         Receivable and selling such goods or merchandise at a public or private
         sale.

                  (h) The Seller agrees to immediately cease selling Receivables
         to the

                                      -26-

         Company pursuant to this Agreement upon the occurrence of a Wind-Down
         Date.

                  (i) Except for the sale of Receivables to the Company pursuant
         to the terms hereof, the Seller shall not sell all or substantially all
         of its property and assets to, or consolidate with or merge into, any
         other corporation, unless (x) the obligations of the Seller under this
         Agreement shall be expressly and effectively assumed by such transferee
         or purchasing or successor corporation, (y) immediately after giving
         effect to such sale, transfer or other disposition or consolidation or
         merger, no Seller Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing and (z) unless such transferee or purchasing or successor
         corporation is the Parent, the Seller shall have obtained the prior
         written consent of GECC; PROVIDED that nothing contained in this
         Agreement shall prevent the Seller from merging into itself any other
         corporation which is a Subsidiary of the Parent or acquiring by
         purchase or otherwise all or any part of the, share capital, other
         securities or property of any other corporation which is a Subsidiary
         of the Parent, provided that no Seller Event of Default shall have
         occurred and be continuing or would result from such transaction.

                  (j) The Seller shall permit the Company, the Collateral Agent
         or their duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors to
         inspect the Receivables, the Documents and the related accounts,
         records and computer systems maintained by the Seller at such times as
         the Company or the Collateral Agent may reasonably request. Upon
         instructions from the Company or the Collateral Agent, the Seller shall
         release any Document to the Company or the Collateral Agent, as the
         case may be.

                  (k) The Seller shall deliver to the Company, (i) on or before
         March 30, 1991 and (ii) on each March 30th thereafter, an officer's
         certificate signed by the President or any Vice President of the
         Seller, dated as of December 31 of the preceding year, stating that (a)
         a review of the activities of the Seller during the preceding 12-month
         period and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under
         such officer's supervision and (b) to the best of such officer's
         knowledge, based on such review, the Seller has fulfilled its
         obligations under the Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has
         been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying
         each such default known to such officer and the nature and status
         thereof.

                  (l) The Seller shall provide such cooperation, information and
         assistance, and prepare and supply the Company with such data regarding
         the performance by the Obligors of their obligations under the
         Receivables and the performance by the Seller of its obligations under
         the Seller Documents, as may be reasonably requested by the Company
         from time to time in connection with any audit of the financial
         statements or books and records of the Company.

                  (m) The Seller shall maintain its facility from which it
         services the Receivables

                                      -27-

         in its present condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, or such
         other facility of similar quality, security and safety as the Seller
         may select from time to time. The Seller shall make all property tax
         payments, lease payments and all other payments with respect to such
         facility. The Seller shall, until the payment in full of all Senior
         Indebtedness, (i) ensure that the Collateral Agent shall have complete
         and unrestricted access during regular business hours upon reasonable
         notice, at the Seller's expense, to such facility and all computers and
         other systems relating to the servicing of the Receivables and all
         persons employed at such facility, (ii) use its best efforts to retain
         the employees based at such facility to provide assistance to the
         Collateral Agent and (iii) continue to store on a daily basis all
         back-up files relating to the Receivables and the servicing of the
         Receivables at the current facilities used for such purpose or such
         other storage facility of similar quality, security and safety as the
         Seller may select from time to time. The Seller shall cooperate with
         the Collateral Agent in connection with the writing and development of
         a conversion program (to be retained by the Collateral Agent) in
         respect of all computer files relating to the Receivables or the
         servicing and collection thereof (including but not limited to each of
         the computer files listed on Schedule 3.03(m) hereto).

                  (n) Seller shall at all times maintain in effect interest-rate
         cap agreements with respect to no less than 80% of an amount equal to
         (i) the Outstanding Principal Receivables, LESS (ii) the Fixed Amount.
         With respect to any interest-rate cap purchased or maintained
         hereunder, Seller shall use its best efforts to secure the
         acknowledgment of its counterparty that Seller's right to receive
         payments thereunder is subject to a first priority Lien in favor of the
         Collateral Agent or shall otherwise assign such right to the Collateral
         Agent.

                  (o) As long as this Agreement remains in effect, Seller shall
         deliver or cause to be delivered to Company:

                           (1) Within 30 days after the end of each fiscal
                  month, Parent's consolidated and consolidating unaudited
                  balance sheet as of the close of such month and the related
                  statements of income and cash flow for such month, all
                  prepared by Parent in conformity with GAAP, and accompanied by
                  the certification of Parent's chief executive officer or chief
                  financial officer that such financial statements present
                  fairly the financial position of Parent as at the end of such
                  month and that there is no Seller Event of Default or
                  Collection Agent Event of Default, or event which with the
                  passage of time or the giving of notice or both would
                  constitute a Seller Event of Default or Collection Agent Event
                  of Default.

                           (2) Within 120 days after the close of each fiscal

                  accounting principles with which the accountants agree,
                  litigation or tax controversies which are being contested in
                  good faith, by the independent certified public accountants
                  regularly retained by Parent and acceptable to Seller, and
                  accompanied by a certificate from such accountants to the
                  effect that during the course of their examination they have
                  not become aware of any Seller Event of Default or Collection
                  Agent Event of Default, or event which with the passage of
                  time or giving of notice or both would constitute a Seller
                  Event of Default or Collection Agent Event of Default (it
                  being understood that such accountants shall not be required
                  to undertake any investigation other than as may be required
                  in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and
                  that such accountants must have actual knowledge of such
                  Seller Event of Default or Collection Agent Event of Default
                  other than of a financial or accounting nature).

                           (3) Not later than December 15 of each year, on a
                  consolidated and consolidating basis;

                           forthcoming 12 fiscal months, month by month;

                                   (ii) a projected cash flow statement,
                           including reasonable details of cash disbursements,
                           for the forthcoming 12 fiscal months, month by month;
                           and

                                  (iii) a projected income statement for the
                           forthcoming 12 months, month by month, together with
                           appropriate supporting details as requested by
                           Seller.

                           (4) Such other information respecting the business,
                  financial condition or prospects of the Parent or the Seller
                  as Seller or GECC may, from time to time, request.

                  Section 3.04 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES DEEMED MADE. The
sale of Additional Receivables on each Purchase Date pursuant to Section 2.02 of
this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by
the Seller that the representations and warranties made under Section 3.01 of
this Agreement are true and correct on such Purchase Date as if made on such
Purchase Date.

                  Section 3.05 RECEIVABLE REPURCHASES. In the event that any
Receivable sold by the Seller to the Company on any Purchase Date pursuant to
the terms hereof was not an Eligible Receivable on the applicable Purchase Date,
the Seller shall repurchase such Receivable on the Settlement Date following the
Settlement Period in which (i) the Company or the Collateral

Agent requests the Seller to repurchase such Receivable or (ii) the Seller or
the Parent discovers that such Receivable was not an Eligible Receivable on such
applicable Purchase Date. The purchase price for any such Receivable shall be an
amount equal to the Unpaid Balance thereof as of the last day of the Settlement
Period preceding such Settlement Date. The Seller's obligation to repurchase
Receivables pursuant to this Section 3.05 shall constitute a Seller Payable.

                                    ARTICLE V

                ADMINISTRATION, COLLECTIONS AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS

                  Section 5.01 APPOINTMENT OF COLLECTION AGENT. Until such time
as the Company shall notify the Seller in writing pursuant to Section 5.05
hereof of the revocation of such power and authority, the Company hereby
appoints the Seller as its agent ("Collection Agent") to collect all amounts
owing under or on account of all Receivables purchased by the Company from the
Seller and to perform as administrative agent for the Company all tasks and
duties in connection therewith that may be necessary or advisable and permitted
for carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Funding
Agreement. The Collection Agent shall keep separate records on behalf of the
Company covering the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including the
identity and collection status of each Receivable purchased by the Company from
the Seller and the Seller Payables. In collection of the Receivables, the
Collection Agent shall exercise the same care that it has exercised in handling
similar matters for its own account, and shall create and administer policies
and practices consistent with the policies and practices applied in handling
similar matters for its own account and as if it had not sold the Receivables to
the Company. The Collection Agent is further authorized, upon prior notice to
GECC and subject to Section 5.05, to delegate certain of its service,
collection,

                                      -31-


<PAGE>   33



enforcement and administrative duties hereunder with respect to the Receivables
to the Parent or, with the prior written consent of GECC, to any other Person
who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with this Agreement; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Collateral Agent shall have notified S&P and Moody's in
writing in advance of any such proposed delegation of its duties to a Person
other than the Parent and neither S&P nor Moody's shall have advised that it
would or might reduce the rating of the Commercial Paper as a result thereof;
and PROVIDED FURTHER, that no delegation will relieve the Collection Agent of
its liability and responsibility with respect to such duties. Upon the
revocation of the power and authority granted pursuant to the first sentence of
this Section 5.01, the Company shall appoint a successor Collection Agent in
accordance with Section 5.05 hereof.

                  Section 5.02 COLLECTIONS. (a) The Seller shall take or cause
to be taken all such action as may be necessary or advisable to collect each
Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and
regulations and with reasonable care and diligence. The Seller will keep and
maintain at its own cost and expense satisfactory and complete records of the
Receivables sold to the Company by it, including, but not limited to, a record
of all payments received and all other dealings therewith, and the Seller will
make the same available to the Company at any reasonable time upon demand. The
Seller shall, at its own cost and expense, deliver such books and records and
all Documents relating to the Receivables to the Company or to its
representatives at any time upon its demand. The Seller shall identify in form
and manner satisfactory to the Company, such Receivables and the other books,
records and Documents of the Seller pertaining to such Receivables with an
appropriate reference to the fact that such Receivables have been sold and
assigned to the Company and that the Company is the lawful owner thereof and has
legal title therein. All payments made by obligors with respect to the
Receivables are required to be sent to P.O. Box 691395, Cincinnati, Ohio
45269-1395 (the "Lockbox Account") maintained with The Provident Bank. The
Lockbox Account shall be established by the Seller and the Collection Agent in
the name of, and for the benefit of, the Collateral Agent pursuant to a lockbox
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and the Collateral
Agent and containing terms substantially the same as the form of Blocked Deposit
Agreement attached as Annex F hereto. Exclusive dominion and control of the
Lockbox Account shall be vested in the Collateral Agent, subject to the right of
the Collection Agent to have access thereto for purposes of its collection and
servicing duties hereunder. The Seller shall have no right to make withdrawals
from the Lockbox Account. The Collection Agent's right of access to the Lockbox
Account shall be revocable at the option of the Collateral Agent upon the
occurrence of any Seller Default, Seller Event of Default or Collection Agent
Event of Default. In addition, after the occurrence of any Seller Default, any
Seller Event of Default or any Collection Agent Event of Default, the Seller
agrees that it shall, upon the written request of the Company or the Collateral
Agent, notify all Obligors under Receivables sold to the Company by it to make
payment thereof to (i) one or more other bank accounts and/or post-office boxes
designated by the Company or the Collateral Agent and specified in such notice
or (ii) any successor Collection Agent appointed hereunder.

                  (b) The Seller and the Collection Agent shall cause to be
established, and shall maintain thereafter, Account No. 0918906 (the "Blocked
Deposit Account") with The Provident Bank. The Blocked Deposit Account shall be
established in the name, and for the benefit, of the Collateral Agent pursuant
to a Blocked Deposit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive
dominion and control over, and the sole right of withdrawal from, the Blocked
Deposit Account. All funds received in the Lockbox Account shall be transferred
on the date received to the Blocked Deposit Account. In the event that,
notwithstanding the requirement that all Obligors be required to make payments
directly to the Lockbox Account, any Collections of Receivables are received by
the Seller, the Parent or the Collection Agent, such Collections shall be
deposited into the Lockbox Account or the Blocked Deposit Account on the date
received. The Collateral Agent shall on each Business Day cause the Collections
on deposit in the Blocked Deposit Account to be transferred to an account
designated by the Collection Agent; PROVIDED that the Collateral Agent shall
retain in the Blocked Deposit Account on each day its estimate of the amount, if
any, by which (A) the sum of (1) the Collections of Finance Charge Receivables
received in the Blocked Deposit Account during the current Settlement Period and
(2) the excess, if any, of the Collections of Principal Receivables received in
the Blocked Deposit during the current Settlement Period over the principal
amount of new retail installment sale contracts acquired by the Seller during
such Settlement Period that meet the criteria to be Eligible Receivables,
exceeds (B) an amount equal to the product of (x) the Daily Accrual Factor for
such day and (y) the amount available to be drawn on the Deposits Letter of
Credit on such day. All Collections released to the Seller pursuant to this
Section 5.02(b), will, pending remittance to the Collection Account as provided
in Section 5.03 hereof, be held by the Seller for the benefit of the Company and
shall be payable to the Company in accordance with Section 5.03 hereof.

                  (c) In performing its duties and obligations hereunder, the
Collection Agent (i) shall not impair the rights of the Company in any
Receivable, (ii) shall not amend the terms of any Receivable such that the
maturity of any payment due thereunder is extended more than 180 days, (iii)
shall not release any goods or merchandise securing a Receivable from the lien
created by such Receivable except as specifically provided for herein, and (iv)
shall be entitled to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection

         of the Seller Collateral in one or more parcels at public or private
         sale, at any exchange, broker's board or at any of the Company's or

         which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable
         notification. The Company shall not be obligated to make any sale of

         time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale,
         and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and
         place to which it was so adjourned. Every such sale shall operate to
         divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever of the
         Seller in and to the Seller Collateral so sold, and shall be a
         perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against the Seller, any
         Person claiming the Seller Collateral through the Seller and their
         respective successors or assigns.

                  (ii) Upon the completion of any sale under subsection (i)
         above, the Seller will deliver or cause to be delivered all of the
         Seller Collateral sold to the purchaser or pur chasers at such sale on
         the date of sale, or within a reasonable time thereafter if it shall be
         impractical to make immediate delivery, but in any event full title and
         right of possession to such property shall pass to such purchaser or
         purchasers forthwith upon the completion of such sale. Nevertheless, if
         so requested by the Company or by any purchaser, the Seller shall
         confirm any such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to such
         purchaser all proper instruments of conveyance and transfer and
         releases as may be designated in any such request.

                  (iii) At any sale under subsection (i) above, the Company or
         the Collateral Agent may bid for and purchase the property offered for
         sale and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and
         dispose of such property without further accountability therefor.

                  (iv) The Company may exercise at the Seller's expense any and
         all rights and remedies of the Seller under or in connection with the
         Retail Purchase Agreement or the other Seller Collateral, including any
         and all rights of the Seller to demand or otherwise require payment of
         any amount under, or performance of any provisions of, the Retail
         Purchase Agreement.

exhausted or any action be taken against the Seller and all notice and demand
whatsoever.

                  Section 6.04 SUBROGATION. Parent shall not exercise any rights
it may acquire by way of subrogation, in whole or in part, to the rights of the
Company or the Collateral Agent against the Seller until the Company shall have
received payment in full of all of the Sellers' obligations under this
Agreement. Parent agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as
between Parent and the Company or the Collateral Agent, any amounts due pursuant
to this Article VI may be declared to be immediately due and payable as provided
herein notwithstanding any stay, injunction, or other prohibition preventing
such declaration as against the Seller and that, in the event of such
declaration, such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Seller)
shall immediately become due and payable by Parent for purposes of, and to the
extent provided in, this Article VI.

                  Section 6.05 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST; REMEDIES. (a) As
security for the prompt payment or performance in full when due of all of the
obligations of the Parent hereunder (the "Parent Obligations"), the Parent (i)
hereby assigns and pledges to the Company a security interest in and lien upon,
all of the Parent's right, title, and interest in and to all issued and out-
standing capital stock of the Seller at any time owned by the Parent (the
"Stock") together with all proceeds thereof (the Stock and all such proceeds,
the "Parent Collateral") and (ii) hereby pledges and deposits as security with
the Company the Stock owned by the Parent on the date hereof and delivers to the
Company certificates therefor accompanied by stock powers duly executed in blank
by the Parent or such other instruments or transfer as are acceptable to the
Company.

                  (b) If the Parent shall acquire (by purchase, stock dividend
or otherwise) any additional Stock at any time or from time to time after the
date hereof, the Parent will forthwith pledge and deposit such Stock as security
with the Company and deliver to the Parent certificates therefor accompanied by
stock powers duly executed in blank by the Parent or such other instruments of
transfer as are acceptable to the Company.

                  (c) Unless and until the Parent shall have failed to perform
any of its obligations hereunder when due (any such failure, a "Parent Event")
the Parent shall be entitled to vote

                                      -42-


<PAGE>   44



any and all Stock and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect
thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or
ratification given or any action taken which would violate or be inconsistent
with any of the terms of this Agreement or any other instrument or agreement
referred to herein, or which would have the effect of impairing the position or
interests of the Company. All such rights of the Parent to vote and to give
consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease in case a Parent Event shall
occur and be continuing.

                  (d) Unless and until a Parent Event shall have occurred and be
continuing, all cash dividends payable in respect of the Stock shall be paid to
the Parent. The Company shall be entitled to receive directly, and to retain as
part of the Collateral: (i) all other or additional stock or securities or
property (other than cash) paid or distributed by way of dividend in respect of
the Stock; (ii) all other or additional stock or other securities or property
paid or distributed in respect of the Stock by way of stock-split, spin-off,
split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar rearrangement; and
(iii) all other or additional stock or other securities or property which may
be paid in respect of the Collateral by reason of any consolidation, merger,
exchange of stock, conveyance of assets, liquidation or similar corporate
reorganization.

                  (e) In case a Parent Event shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Company shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights, powers
and remedies of secured party upon default under the UCC (such rights and
remedies to be cumulative and non-exclusive), and the Company shall be entitled,
without limitation, to exercise the following rights, which the Parent hereby
agrees to be commercially reasonable:

                  (i) to receive all amounts payable in respect of the
         Collateral otherwise payable under Section 6.05(d) to the Parent;

                  (ii) to transfer all or any part of the Stock into the
         Company's name or the name of its nominee or nominees;

                  (iii) to vote all or any part of the Stock (whether or not
         transferred into the name of the Company) and give all consents,
         waivers and ratifications in respect of the Stock and otherwise act
         with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (the
         Parent hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Company the
         proxy and attorney-in-fact of the Parent, with full power of
         substitution to do so); and

                  (iv) at any time or from time to time to sell, assign and
         deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the
         Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale,
         without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to
         sell or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to
         redeem of otherwise (all of which are hereby waived by the Parent), for
         cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery
         without any assumption of credit risk, and its absolute discretion may
         determine, provided that at least ten days' notice of the time and
         place of any

                                      -43-


<PAGE>   45



         such sale shall be given to the Parent. The Parent hereby waives and
         releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of
         redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale
         hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and
         any other security for the Parent Obligations or otherwise. At any such
         sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Company or the
         Collateral Agent may bid for and purchase all or any part of the
         Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption.
         Neither the Company nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for
         failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for
         any delay in so doing nor shall any of them be under any obligation to
         take any action whatsoever with regard thereto.

                  (f) All moneys collected by the Company upon any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral, together with all other moneys received by the
Company hereunder, shall be applied to the payment of all costs and expenses
incurred by the Company in connection with such sale, the delivery of the
Collateral or the collection of any such moneys (including, without limitation,
attorneys fees and expenses), and the balance of such moneys shall be held by
the Company and applied by it to satisfy the Parent Obligations. Upon payment in
full of all such Parent Obligations, any remaining balance will be paid to the
Parent.

binding upon the Seller, the Parent and the Company and their respective
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Seller, the Parent
and the Company and their respective successors and assigns; PROVIDED that,
except as permitted by Section 5.01 hereof, neither the Seller nor the Parent
shall assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of the Company, Edison and GECC. The parties hereto expressly
agree and consent to any merger of the Company with and into Retailer Funding,

hereunder without the prior written consent of the Seller and GECC.

                  Section 7.03 SEVERABILITY CLAUSE. Any provisions of this
Agreement which are 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

                  Section 7.04 AMENDMENTS; GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement and the
rights and obligations of the parties hereunder may not be changed orally but
only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement
is sought and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of
the State of New York.

                  Section 7.05 SELLER'S OBLIGATIONS. It is expressly agreed
that, anything in this Agreement contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Seller, Wurlitzer and Parent shall be liable to perform all of the obligations
assumed by them under each Receivable and the Company shall have no obligations
or liability under the Receivables to any Obligor thereunder by reason of or
arising out of this Agreement nor shall the Company be required or obligated in
any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of the Seller or the
Parent under or pursuant to any Receivable.

                  Section 7.06 SERVICING FEE. Subject to the provisions of

duties hereunder during the immediately preceding Settlement Period equal to

                                      -47-


<PAGE>   49



the excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate Collections received during the
immediately preceding Settlement Period allocable to Finance Charge Receivables
over (ii) the sum of (1) the Carrying Costs for such immediately preceding
Settlement Period, (2) the Receivable Losses Funding Amount with respect to such
immediately preceding Settlement Period and (3) the Outstanding Unpaid
Receivable Losses Funding Amount for all prior Settlement Periods.

                  If any funds remain on deposit in the Collection Account on
the Expiration Date or any Collections of Receivables are received thereafter,
and after the payment in full of all of the Company's obligations under the
Funding Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, the Guaranty or in any other
agreement or document related thereto, an amount equal to such funds shall be
paid by the Company to the Seller as a special termination fee under this
Agreement.

                  Section 7.07  SUBORDINATION OF DEFERRED PURCHASE PRICE.

                  (a) SUBORDINATION OF LIABILITIES. The Seller, for itself and
its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees that, except as provided in
Section 5.03(b), the Deferred Purchase Price is hereby expressly subordinated,
to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the prior payment in
full of all Senior Indebtedness (as defined in paragraph (f) of this Section
7.07). The provisions of this Section 7.07 shall constitute a continuing offer
to all persons who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or
continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such provisions are made for the
benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are hereby made
obligees hereunder the same as if their names were written herein as such, and
they and/or each of them may proceed to enforce such provisions.

                  (b) COMPANY NOT TO MAKE PAYMENTS WITH RESPECT TO DEFERRED
PURCHASE PRICE. (i) Except to the limited extent provided in Section 5.03(b)
hereof, no payment shall be made in respect of the Deferred Purchase Price until
the Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full.

                  (ii) In the event that notwithstanding the provisions of the
preceding subsection (i) of this paragraph (b), the Company shall make any
payment on account of the Deferred Purchase Price at a time when payment is not
permitted by said subsection (i), such payment shall be held by any recipient of
such payment, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and
delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representatives under
the agreements pursuant to which the Senior Indebtedness may have been issued,
as their respective interests may appear, for application PRO RATA to the extent
necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full accordance with the terms of
such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

                  (c) DEFERRED PURCHASE PRICE SUBORDINATED TO PRIOR PAYMENT OF
ALL SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS ON DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION OR REORGANIZATION OF THE
COMPANY. Upon any distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution,
winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company (whether in bankruptcy,
insolvency or receivership proceeding or

                                      -48-


<PAGE>   50



upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise):

                  (i) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be
         entitled to receive payment in full of the principal thereof, premium,
         if any, and interest (including postpetition interest) and all other
         amounts due thereon before the holders of the Deferred Purchase Price
         are entitled to receive any payment on account thereon;

                 (ii) any payment or distributions of assets of the Company or
         any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities to which
         the holders of the Deferred Purchase Price would be entitled except for
         the provisions of this Section 7.07, shall be paid by the liquidating
         trustee or agent or other person making such payment or distribution,
         whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or
         other trustee or agent, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
         or their representative or representatives under the agreements
         pursuant to which the Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, to the
         extent necessary to make payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness
         remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
         distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and

                (iii) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing
         provisions of this paragraph (c), any payment or distribution of assets
         of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
         securities, shall be received by holders of the Deferred Purchase Price
         on account of any Deferred Purchase Price before all Senior
         Indebtedness is paid in full, or effective provision made for its
         payment, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in
         trust for and shall be paid over to the holders of the Senior
         Indebtedness remaining unpaid or unprovided for or their representative
         or representatives under the agreements pursuant to which the Senior
         Indebtedness may have been issued, for application to the payment of
         such Senior Indebtedness until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have
         been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
         distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

                  (d) SUBROGATION. Subject to the prior payment in full of all
Senior Indebtedness, the holders of the Deferred Purchase Price shall be
subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive
payments or distributions of assets of the Company applicable to the Senior
Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Senior Indebtedness shall be paid in
full, and for the purpose of such subrogation no payments or distributions to
the holders of the Senior Indebtedness by or on behalf of the Company or by or
on behalf of the holders of the Deferred Purchase Price by virtue of this
paragraph (d) which otherwise would have been made to the holders of the
Deferred Purchase Price shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than
the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of the Deferred Purchase
Price be deemed to be payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior
Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Section 7.07 are
and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the
holders of the Deferred Purchase Price on the one

                                      -49-


<PAGE>   51



hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

                  (e) SUBORDINATION RIGHTS NOT IMPAIRED BY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF
THE COMPANY OR HOLDERS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. No right of any present or future
holders of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided
shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by an act or failure to
act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act in good faith by
any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms and
provisions hereof or any agreement related hereto or of the Funding Agreement or
any agreement related thereto regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such
holder may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders of the Senior
Indebtedness may, without in any way affecting the obligations of the holders of
the Deferred Purchase Price with respect thereto, at any time or from time to
time and in their absolute discretion, change the manner, place or terms of

                      PURCHASE DISCOUNT ADJUSTMENT CRITERIA
                      -------------------------------------


                  Each of (1) the Purchase Discount, (2) the Cash Percentage and
(3) the ratio specified in clause (vi) of the definition of "Wind-Down Date", in
each case as specified in the Second Amended and Restated Purchase and
Administration Agreement dated as of March 20, 1998 among, Retailer Funding
Corporation (the "Company"), Keyboard Acceptance Corporation (the "Seller") and
Baldwin Piano & Organ Company, as amended (the "Agreement", to which Agreement
reference is hereby made for the meanings of all capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined herein), is subject to modification from time to time
as follows:

                  1. The amount of over-collateralization shall be determined on
the basis of the loss experience and the Effective Yield of the Seller's
portfolio and shall be maintained at the sum of (1) the higher of (i) 10% and
(ii) three times the Seller's "Loss Experience" plus (2) the Effective Yield
Adjuster plus (3) the Uncollectible Receivable Adjuster. For the purposes of
this Annex C:

                  "Loss Experience" with respect to the Seller means the higher
                  of (x) the 12 month rolling gross average loss experience for
                  the Seller's portfolio (historically or on a going forward
                  basis) and (y) four times the loss experience of the Seller's
                  portfolio during the three consecutive month period with the
                  highest gross loss experience during the most recent three
                  year period.

                  "Benchmark Uncollectible Receivable Percentage" shall mean,
                  with respect to any Settlement Period, the higher of (x) the
                  average Uncollectible Receivable Percentage for the three
                  month period ending immediately prior to such Settlement
                  Period and (y) the average Uncollectible Receivable Percentage
                  for the twelve month period ending immediately prior to such
                  Settlement Period.

                  "Uncollectible Receivable Adjuster" shall mean, with respect
                  to any Settlement Period, an amount (but not less than zero)
                  equal to the product of (a) 1.5 and (b) the amount, if any, by
                  which (x) the Benchmark Uncollectible Receivable Percentage
                  for such Settlement Period exceeds (y) 8.75%.

                  "Uncollectible Receivable Percentage" shall mean, with respect
                  to any Settlement Period, the ratio (expressed as a
                  percentage) equal to (a) the product of (x) 12 and (y) the
                  Unpaid Balance of the Receivables that became Uncollectible
                  Receivables during such Settlement Period divided by (b) the
                  Outstanding Principal Receivables as of the first day of such
                  Settlement Period.

                  2. If the Loss Experience of the Seller's portfolio and/or the
Effective Yield Adjuster and/or the Uncollectible Receivable Adjuster increases,
the amount of over-

                                                                         Annex C
                                                                          Page 2


collateralization will be adjusted upward by means of (i) an increase in the
Purchase Discount used in calculating the purchase price of Additional
Receivables for such number of Settlement Periods following the occurrence of
such increase in Loss Experience and/or the Effective Yield Adjuster as is
necessary to cause the aggregate over-collateralization for the portfolio as a
whole to be equal to the over-collateralization percentage specified in
paragraph 1 above, (ii) an adjustment in the Purchase Discount as it is used
for all other purposes to an amount equal to the sum of (1) the higher of 10%
and three times the Seller's Loss Experience plus (2) the Effective Yield
Adjuster plus (3) the Uncollectible Receivable Adjuster and (iii) corresponding
changes in the Cash Percentage and the ratio set forth in clause (vii) of the
definition of "Wind-Down Date".

                  3. If the Loss Experience of the Seller's portfolio and/or the
Effective Yield Adjuster and/or the Uncollectible Receivable Adjuster decreases,
the amount of over-collateralization will be adjusted downward (but not lower
than the higher of 10% and three times the Seller's Loss Experience) by means of
(i) a decrease in the Purchase Discount used in calculating the purchase price
of Additional Receivables for such number of Settlement Periods following the
occurrence of such decrease as is necessary to cause the aggregate over-
collateralization for the portfolio as a whole to be equal to the
over-collateralization percentage specified in paragraph 1 above, (ii) an
adjustment in the Purchase Discount as it is used for all other purposes to an
amount equal to the sum of (1) the higher of 10% and three times the Seller's
Loss Experience plus (2) the Effective Yield Adjuster plus (3) the Uncollectible
Receivable Adjuster and (iii) corresponding changes in the Cash Percentage and
the ratio set forth in clause (vii) of the definition of "Wind-Down Date".

Provident Bank
One East Fourth Street
Cincinnati, Ohio  45202

                  Re:      Account No. 0918906

Gentlemen:

                  Keyboard Acceptance Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company") is in the business of purchasing accounts receivable from Baldwin
Piano & Organ Company ("Baldwin") and certain other persons. On behalf of the
Company, we hereby request that you execute this Letter Agreement. The Company,
Retailer Funding Corporation ("RFC"), and General Electric Capital Corporation
(the "Collateral Agent"), are parties to an Amended and Restated Purchase and
Administration Agreement dated as of October __, 1997 (the "Purchase
Agreement"). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the
meanings assigned to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

                  Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company
has granted to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of RFC and
other Secured Parties, a pledge of and security interest in certain Block
Deposit Accounts and other collateral described therein, including the above
referenced account (the "Deposit Account") into which certain monies,
instruments and other property are deposited by the Company and Baldwin from
time to time, to secure the payment and performance of the obligations of the
Company under the Purchase Agreement. This Letter Agreement defines certain
rights and obligations with respect to the appointment of Provident Bank (the
"Deposit Account Bank") to maintain the Deposit Account.

                  Accordingly, the Company, Baldwin, RFC, the Collateral Agent
and the Deposit Account Bank agree as follows:

                                                                          Page 2




                  Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery by the
Deposit Account Bank of this Letter Agreement, and for purposes of this Letter
Agreement, there exists with the Deposit Account Bank, or the Deposit Account
Bank shall establish and maintain, the Deposit Account for the benefit of the
Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account shall be designated with the title
"General Electric Capital Corporation, as Collateral Agent, Re: Keyboard
Acceptance Corporation". All payments received by the Deposit Account Bank
endorsed to the Deposit Account shall be deposited in the Deposit Account. Such
payments shall not be commingled with other funds of the Company or Baldwin. All
funds at any time on deposit in the Deposit Account shall be held by the Deposit
Account Bank for application strictly in accordance with the terms of this
Letter Agreement. The Deposit Account Bank agrees to give the Collateral Agent
prompt notice if the Deposit Account becomes subject to any writ, judgment,
warrant of attachment, execution or similar process.

                  The Deposit Account Bank hereby acknowledges that the Company
has assigned, pledged, granted, conveyed, transferred, delivered and set over to
the Collateral Agent, RFC and the Secured Parties a security interest in the
Deposit Account and all property and assets held therein.

                  The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control
over, and sole right of withdrawal from, the Deposit Account. The Collateral
Agent shall possess all right, title and interest in all of the items from time
to time on deposit in the Deposit Account and the proceeds thereof. Neither the
Company nor Baldwin nor any other person or entity shall have any right, title
or interest in, or control or use of, or any right to withdraw any amount from
the Deposit Account. The Deposit Account Bank shall furnish the Company and the
Collateral Agent with statements, in the form and manner typical for the Deposit
Account Bank, of amounts of deposits in, and amounts withdrawn from, the Deposit
Account at such times as shall be reasonably requested by the Company or the
Collateral Agent.

                  For purposes of this Letter Agreement, each officer and
employee of the Collateral Agent listed on SCHEDULE A hereto, and any other
officer or employee of the Collateral Agent designated in writing by a person
listed on SCHEDULE A hereto, shall be authorized to act, and to give
instructions and notice, on behalf of the Collateral Agent hereunder and the
Deposit Account Bank shall be entitled to rely on such act, instruction or
notice without further inquiry.

                  The Company agrees to pay the Deposit Account Bank for the
services of the Deposit Account Bank in connection with the Deposit Account and
this Agreement. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall not have any
responsibility or liability for the payment of any such fee.

                  The Deposit Account Bank may perform any of its duties
hereunder by or through its officers, employees or agents and shall be entitled

                                                                          Page 3




duties. The Deposit Account Bank shall not be liable to the Collateral Agent or
the Company for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith, nor
shall the Deposit Account Bank be responsible to the Collateral Agent or the
Company for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment or be
answerable to the Collateral Agent or the Company for the same unless the same
shall happen through the Deposit Account Bank's gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

                  The Deposit Account Bank may resign at any time as Deposit
Account Bank hereunder by delivery to the Collateral Agent and the Company of
written notice of resignation not less than 30 days prior to the effective date
of such resignation. The Collateral Agent may close the Deposit Account at any
time by delivery of notice to the Deposit Account Bank at its address appearing
below. This Letter Agreement shall terminate upon receipt of such notice of
closing, or delivery of such notice of resignation, except that the Deposit
Account Bank shall promptly (i) transfer to the Collateral Agent all collected
funds, if any, then on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Deposit
Account, other than amounts retained for returned checks in the ordinary course
of business, (ii) deliver directly to the Collateral Agent at its office
specified below (or such other office or account as the Collateral Agent shall
specify) all checks, drafts and other instruments for the payment of money with
respect to the Deposit Account coming into the possession of the Deposit
Account Bank after one full business day has elapsed from Deposit Account Bank's
receipt of such notice, without depositing such checks, drafts or other instru-
ments in the Deposit Account or any other account and (iii) deliver any payments
relating to the Account Collateral coming into the possession of the Deposit
Account Bank after one full business day has elapsed from Deposit Account
Bank's receipt of such notice directly to the Collateral Agent.

                  The Company acknowledges that the Deposit Account Bank shall
incur no liability to the Company as a result of any action taken pursuant to
any instruction given by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent.

                  All notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing
(except where telephonic instructions or notices are authorized herein) and
shall be deemed to have been received and shall be effective on the day on which

Collateral Agent. This Letter Agreement may be amended only by a written
instrument executed by the Company, RFC, the Collateral Agent and the Deposit
Account Bank, acting by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized. The
Deposit Account Bank hereby irrevocably waives any rights to setoff against, or
otherwise deduct from, any funds held in the Deposit Account for any
indebtedness or other claim owed by, the Company, Baldwin or any other person or
entity to the Deposit Account Bank. To the extent that the Deposit Account Bank
ever has any such rights, the Deposit Account Bank hereby expressly subordinates
all such rights to the rights of the Collateral Agent.

                  Nothing contained herein will require the Deposit Account Bank
to take any action in contravention of applicable laws (including, without
limitation, bankruptcy stay laws), any court order or the instructions of any
bankruptcy trustee.

                  The Company agrees to immediately reimburse the Deposit
Account Bank for the amount of any returned item if the Deposit Account does not
contain sufficient available funds to reimburse the Deposit Account Bank for the
amount of the returned item within fifteen (15) days after the date the Deposit
Account Bank is notified of the return of the item.

                  The Company hereby agrees to pay, indemnify, defend and hold
the Deposit Account Bank harmless from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including without
limitation, legal fees) with respect to the performance of this Agreement by the
Deposit Account Bank or any of the Deposit Account Bank's directors, officers,
agents or employees, unless arising from its or their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEPOSIT ACCOUNT BANK BE LIABLE FOR ANY
INDIRECT DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
WHICH ARISE OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES CONTEMPLATED BY THIS
AGREEMENT. The provisions of this paragraph will survive termination of this
Agreement.

                  The Deposit Account Bank's obligations to the Collateral Agent
and the Secured Parties in respect of the Deposit Account shall be solely as set
forth in this Agreement, and shall not be affected by any other agreement
between the Company or Baldwin and the Collateral Agent or otherwise regarding
the Deposit Account.

                  THIS LETTER AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF OHIO.

                  This Letter Agreement (i) shall inure to the benefit of, and

Gentlemen:

                  In order to induce Retailer Funding Corporation ("RFC") to
continue to provide financing under the Amended and Restated Purchase and
Administration Agreement dated as of October ____, 1997 (the "Agreement") among
RFC, Keyboard Acceptance Corporation ("KAC") and Baldwin Piano & Organ Company
("Parent"), ____________ ("Executive")
personally agrees with each of you as follows:

                  1. All initially capitalized terms, if not separately defined
herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.

                  2. If any of the followings events (each, a "Credit Event")
shall occur: (i) any KAC Obligation is not paid when due, (ii) any Parent Event
shall occur and be continuing, (iii) any Collection Agent Event of Default shall
occur and be continuing or (iv) KAC's appointment as Collection Agent is revoked
in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, then, upon your written request
made within 10 days after such Credit Event, Executive will commence to exercise
[his/her] best efforts in an appropriate manner to obtain or assist in obtaining
the maximum collections for your account with respect to all of the Receivables,
Seller Collateral and Parent Collateral; provided, however, that Executive was
employed by KAC or Parent at the time of such demand. Executive will assist in
the disposition of all such assets upon which you may have any lien or ownership
interest, and will exercise [his/her] best efforts to obtain purchasers for such
assets and obtain the maximum recovery from your liens. In such event, Executive
will act as your agent and representative by devoting as much time as you deem
appropriate to carry out the purposes of this agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
Executive shall not be required to render any services hereunder after (i) the
date which is 9 months after the date on which you make your initial demand to
Executive hereunder or (ii) in the event that KAC or Parent is the subject of a
proceeding under title 11 of the United States Code, the date which is 6

                                                                       Exhibit H
                                                                          Page 2


months following the date on which the automatic stay under Section 362 of title
11 of the United States Code is modified or lifted in such proceeding so that
you can foreclose on the Receivables, Seller Collateral and Parent Collateral;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Executive was employed by KAC or Parent on such date upon
which the automatic stay was modified or lifted. For such services, Executive
will be paid what you, in your reasonable discretion, deem appropriate
compensation but not less than [his/her] then current rate of compensation, and
the actual, reasonable expenses of Executive will be reimbursed by you.

                  3. Executive will use [his/her] best efforts as long as KAC or
Parent has outstanding any obligations arising under the Agreement to ensure
that:

                  a.       full, complete and accurate records with respect to
                           the Receivables, Seller Collateral and Parent
                           Collateral are maintained at KAC's or Parent's
                           executive offices;

                  b.       all of the Receivables, Seller Collateral and Parent
                           Collateral is adequately protected against theft,
                           pilferage or diminution in the event of any
                           liquidation; and

                  c.       immediate notice is given to you in the event of any
                           breach of the provisions of the Agreement.

                  Executive will not do anything to delay, defeat, limit or
restrict your liens or the realization thereof.

                                      -------------------------
