      Interests and Collateral with respect to that portion of the Collateral in
      which a security interest is perfected by the filing of a financing
      statement, enforceable as such against all creditors of Borrower and any
      Persons purporting to purchase any Pledged Interests and related
      Collateral from Borrower;

            (g) There are no restrictions on the transfer of the Collateral to
      the Agent hereunder, or with respect to any subsequent transfer thereof or
      realization thereupon by the Agent and/or the Lenders (or, if there are
      any such restrictions, such transfer restrictions have been duly waived by
      all required parties), and, as set forth in the Consents, the Borrower has
      obtained all consents needed in connection with any such transfer or
      subsequent transfer, subject to matters resulting from the operation of
      law.

that from and after the date of this Pledge Agreement until this Pledge
Agreement shall be terminated:

            (a) If the Borrower shall, as a result of its ownership of the
      Pledged Interests, become entitled to receive or shall receive (i) any
      limited liability company certificate (including, without limitation, any
      certificate representing a dividend or a Distribution in connection with
      any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate
      issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights, (ii) any
      stock, (iii) any limited partnership interests (including, without
      limitation, any certificate representing a dividend or a Distribution in
      connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or
      any certificate issued in connection with any reorganization), option or
      rights, or (iv) any property other than cash, whether in addition to, in
      substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for any of the Pledged
      Interests, or otherwise in respect thereof, the Borrower shall accept the
      same as Agent's agent, hold the same in trust for Agent and deliver the
      same forthwith to Agent in the exact form received, duly endorsed by the
      Borrower to Agent, if required, together with an undated assignment or
      power covering such certificate, duly executed in blank and with, if Agent
      so requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by Agent hereunder as
      additional security for the Obligations.

            (b) Without the prior written consent of Agent, the Borrower will
      not, directly or indirectly (i) vote to enable, or take any other action
      to permit, the issuer(s) of the Pledged Interests to issue any interests
      or shares, as applicable, or to issue any other securities convertible
      into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any interests of
      the issuer(s) of the Pledged Interests, or (ii) if prohibited by the Loan
      Agreement, sell, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or
      grant any option with respect to, the Collateral, or (iii) create, incur
      or permit to exist any lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any
      person or entity with respect to, any of the Collateral, or any interest
      therein, except for the lien provided for by this Pledge Agreement and
      liens permitted under the Loan Agreement. The Borrower will defend the
      right, title and interest of Agent in and to the Collateral against the
      claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

            (c) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of
      Agent, and at the sole expense of the Borrower, the Borrower will promptly
      and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and
      take such further actions as Agent may reasonably request for the purposes
      of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Pledge Agreement and
      of the rights and powers herein granted. If any amount payable under or in


                                       -4-
<PAGE>

      connection with any of the Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any
      promissory note, other instrument or chattel paper, such note, instrument
      or chattel paper shall be promptly delivered to Agent, duly endorsed in a
      manner satisfactory to Agent, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this
      Pledge Agreement.

            (d) The Borrower agrees to pay, and to indemnify and save Agent
      harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from
      any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes
      (other than income taxes on the income of Agent or any of the Lenders)
      which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of
      the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated
      by this Pledge Agreement.

            (e) The Borrower shall, upon request from the Agent, from time to
      time, cause the issuer of any securities comprising any of the Collateral
      which may be, but have not been, certificated, to issue certificates with
      respect thereto in the name of the Borrower or, if so requested by the
      Agent, in the name of the Agent as secured party.

            (f) The Borrower shall not exercise any right with respect to the
      Collateral which would dilute or adversely affect Agent's rights in the
      Collateral.

            (g) Except as permitted in the Loan Agreement, the Borrower shall
      not enter into or consent to any amendment or modification of, or with
      respect to, the limited partnership agreements of the Participating
      Limited Partnerships or the operating agreement of the Holding Company
      without Agent's prior written consent in each instance, which consent
      shall not be unreasonably withheld.

      7. Cash Dividends; Distributions; Voting Rights.

            (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing, the Borrower shall be permitted to exercise all voting rights

      Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Agent in each
      instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, vote the
      Collateral in favor of, or consent to, any resolution or action which does
      or might:

                  (i)   impose any restrictions upon the sale, transfer or
                        disposition of the Collateral other than restrictions,
                        if any, the application of which is waived to the full
                        satisfaction of the Agent as to the Collateral; or

                  (ii)  result in the issuance of any additional interest in the
                        Participating Limited Partnerships or the Holding
                        Company, or of any class or series of security, which
                        issuance might adversely affect the value of the
                        Collateral; or

                  (iii) vest additional powers, privileges, preferences or
                        priorities to any other class or series of interest in
                        the Participating Limited Partnerships or the Holding
                        Company to the detriment of the value of, or rights
                        accruing to, the Collateral; or

                  (iv)  except as permitted in the Loan Agreement, permit the
                        Participating Limited Partnerships or the Holding
                        Company to sell, transfer, assign, pledge, mortgage or
                        otherwise encumber any property owned by any of them, or

                                       -5-
<PAGE>

                        in respect of such property, unless Agent has given its

            (b) Subject to the terms and provisions hereof relating to the
      rights and remedies of the Agent after the occurrence and during the

      and the Cash Management Agreement (including, without limitation, Section

      payments received by the Borrower in respect of the Collateral shall be

      payments which are required to be deposited in a designated Depository
      Account as provided for in the Loan Agreement, the Consents and/or the
      Cash Management Agreement, then (i) such amounts shall be deemed to be

      8. Rights of Agent.

            (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
      Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends or
      Distributions or other payments paid in respect of the Collateral and make
      application thereof to the Obligations, in such order as Agent, in its
      sole discretion, may elect. In connection therewith, if an Event of
      Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent shall have the
      right to direct the issuer(s) of the Pledged Interests to pay all such
      cash dividends or Distributions or other payment directly to the Agent or
      as otherwise directed by the Agent.

            (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
      then any or all such Pledged Interests (including, without limitation, any
      class of membership interest in the Holding Company) at Agent's option
      shall be registered in the name of Agent or its nominee, and Agent or its
      nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting and other rights pertaining
      to such Pledged Interests and (y) any and all rights of conversion,
      exchange, subscription and any other rights, privileges or options
      pertaining to such Pledged Interests as if Agent were the absolute owner
      thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its
      discretion any and all of the Pledged Interests upon the merger,
      consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental
      change in the organizational structure of the Borrower, or upon the
      exercise by the Borrower or Agent of any right, privilege or option
      pertaining to such Pledged Interests, and in connection therewith, the
      right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Interests with any
      committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated
      agency upon such terms and conditions as it may determine), all without
      liability except to account for property actually received by it, but
      Agent shall have no duty to exercise any such right, privilege or option
      and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so
      doing.

            (c) The rights of Agent hereunder shall not be conditioned or
      contingent upon the pursuit by Agent of any right or remedy against the
      Borrower or against any other person or entity which may be or become
      liable in respect of all or any part of the Obligations or against any
      other Collateral security therefor, guarantee thereof or right of offset
      with respect thereto. Agent shall not be liable for any failure to demand,
      collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay
      in doing so, nor shall it be under any obligation to sell or otherwise
      dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Borrower or any other
      person


                                       -6-
<PAGE>

      or entity or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the
      Collateral or any part thereof.

      9. Actions By Agent. The Borrower hereby designates Agent as the
attorney-in-fact of the Borrower to: (a) after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, endorse in favor of Agent any of the
Collateral; (b) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral
(including, without limitation, any series of membership interest in the Holding
Company) in such name as Agent may from time to time determine; (c) cause the
issuance of certificates for book entry and/or uncertificated securities; (d)
renew, extend or roll over any Collateral; (e) make, demand and initiate actions
to enforce any of the Collateral or rights therein; and (f) take any other
action to effectuate the terms and provisions of this Pledge Agreement. Agent
may take such action with respect to the Collateral as Agent may reasonably
determine to be necessary to protect and preserve its interest in the
Collateral. Except as otherwise provided herein, all of the rights, remedies,
powers, privileges and discretions included in this Section 9 may be exercised
by Agent whether or not the Obligations are then due and whether or not an Event
of Default has occurred. The within designation and grant of power of attorney
is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the lien created by this
Pledge Agreement is terminated by a written instrument executed by a duly
authorized officer of Agent. The power of attorney shall not be affected by
subsequent disability or incapacity of the Borrower. Agent shall not be liable
for any act or omission to act pursuant to this Section 9, except for any act or
omission to act which is in actual bad faith.

      10. Remedies.

            (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
      Agent may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted
      in this Pledge Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement
      securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and
      remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Without limiting the generality
      of the foregoing, Agent, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment,
      protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required
      by law referred to below) to or upon the Borrower or any other person or
      entity (all and each of which demands, presentments, protests,
      advertisements or notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances
      forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral,
      or any part thereof (including, without limitation, any series of
      membership interest in the Holding Company), and/or may forthwith sell,
      assign, give option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and
      deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the
      foregoing), in one or more parcels (including, without limitation, any
      series of membership interest in the Holding Company) at public or private
      sale or sales, in the over-the-counter market, at any exchange, broker's
      board or office of Agent or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it
      may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on
      credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Agent
      shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the
      extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase
      the whole or any part of the Collateral (including, without limitation,
      any series of membership interest in the Holding Company) so sold, free of
      any right or equity of redemption in the Borrower, which right or equity
      is hereby waived or released. Agent shall apply any Proceeds from time to
      time held by it and the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery,
      receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all
      reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental
      to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating
      to the Collateral or the rights of Agent hereunder, including, without
      limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, to the payment
      in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as Agent may elect,
      and only after such application and after the payment by Agent of any
      other amount required by any provision of law,


                                       -7-
<PAGE>

      including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a) of the UCC, need Agent
      account for the surplus, if any, to the Borrower. To the extent permitted
      by applicable law, the Borrower waives all claims, damages and demands it
      may acquire against Agent arising out of the exercise by Agent of any of
      its rights hereunder, except for any claims, damages and demands it may
      have against Agent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
      of Agent. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of
      Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed
      reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other
      disposition. The Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency if the
      proceeds of any sale or other disposition of Collateral are insufficient
      to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys
      employed by Agent to collect such deficiency.

            (b) If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, any deposits,
      balances or other sums credited by or due from Agent, any affiliate of
      Agent or FleetBoston Financial Corporation or any of the Lenders, or from
      any affiliate of any of the Lenders, to the Borrower may to the fullest
      extent not prohibited by applicable law at any time or from time to time,
      without regard to the existence, sufficiency or adequacy of any other
      collateral, and without notice or compliance with any other condition
      precedent now or hereafter imposed by statute, rule of law or otherwise,
      all of which are hereby waived to the fullest extent permitted by law, be
      set off, appropriated and applied by Agent against any or all of the
      Obligations irrespective of whether demand shall have been made, in such
      manner as Agent in its sole and absolute discretion may determine. Within
      three (3) Business Days of making any such set off, appropriation or
      application, Agent agrees to notify Borrower thereof, provided the failure
      to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off or
      appropriation or application. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE AGENT OR ANY
      OF THE LENDERS TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY
      OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE LOAN, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF
      SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE
      BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

      11. Private Sales.

            (a) The Borrower recognizes that Agent may be unable to effect a
      public sale of any or all the Pledged Interests, by reason of certain
      prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
      applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to
      resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of
      purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire
      such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view
      to the distribution or resale thereof. The Borrower acknowledges and
      agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms
      less favorable to Agent than if such sale were a public sale. Agent shall
      be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Interests for
      the period of time necessary to permit the Borrower to register such
      securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
      or under applicable state securities laws, even if the Borrower would
      agree to do so.

            (b) The Borrower further agrees to use its best efforts to do or
      cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make any sale
      or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Interests pursuant to this
      paragraph 11 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other
      applicable requirements of law; provided, however, that the Borrower shall
      be under no obligation to register the Pledged Interests for public sale
      under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state
      securities laws. The Borrower further agrees that a breach of any of the
      covenants contained in this paragraph 11 will cause irreparable


                                       -8-
<PAGE>

      injury to Agent, that Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of
      such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained
      in this paragraph 11 shall be specifically enforceable against the
      Borrower, and the Borrower hereby waives and agrees not to assert any
      defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants
      except for a defense that no default has occurred with respect to the
      Obligations.

      12. Limitation on Duties Regarding Collateral. Agent's sole duty with
respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral
in its possession, under Section 9- 207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to
deal with it in the same manner as Agent deals with similar securities and
property for its own account. Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers,
employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize
upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any
obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of
the Borrower or otherwise.

      13. Financing Statements; Other Documents. The Borrower shall deliver to
Agent UCC- 1 financing statements with respect to the Collateral, duly executed
by the Borrower suitable for filing in such jurisdictions as Agent shall
reasonably request. The Borrower agrees to deliver any other document or
instrument which Agent may reasonably request in connection with the
administration and enforcement of this Pledge Agreement or with respect to the
Collateral for the purposes of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this
Pledge Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.

      14. Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies and
powers herein contained with respect to the Collateral are irrevocable and
coupled with an interest.

      15. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Agent hereunder, the
grant of a security interest in the Collateral and all obligations of the
Borrower hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (i) any
lack of validity or enforceability of the Loan Agreement, any agreement with
respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating
to any of the foregoing, (ii) any change in time, manner or place of payment of,
or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment
or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Note or any other
agreement or instrument, (iii) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any
other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to or
departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations, or (iv) any
other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to
(other than the defense of indefeasible payment), or a discharge of, the
Borrower in respect of the Obligations or in respect of this Pledge Agreement.

      16. Fees and Expenses. To the extent provided in the Loan Agreement, the
Borrower shall be obligated to, upon demand, pay to the Agent the amount of any
and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its
counsel and of any experts or agents which the Agent or any Lender may incur in
connection with (i) the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any
of the Collateral, or (ii) during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Agent hereunder. Any such
amounts payable as provided hereunder or thereunder shall be additional
obligations secured hereby and by the other Security Documents.

      17. Termination. Upon the payment in full of the Obligations, in
immediately available funds, including, without limitation, all unreimbursed
costs and expenses of the Agent and of each Lender for which the Borrower is
responsible, the Agent shall release the Collateral granted to the Agent as
provided for herein. However, such release by the Agent shall not be deemed to
terminate or release the Borrower from any obligation or liability under this
Pledge Agreement which specifically by its terms survives the payment in full of
the Obligations.


                                       -9-
<PAGE>

      18. Severability. Any provision of this Pledge Agreement which 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.

      19. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings used in this Pledge
Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the
construction, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Pledge
Agreement.

      20. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Agent shall not by any act delay,
indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy
hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default or in any breach of any of the
terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in
exercising, on the part of Agent, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power
or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by Agent of any
right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to
any right or remedy which Agent would otherwise have on any future occasion. The
rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or
concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

      21. Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns; Governing Law; Venue.
None of the terms or provisions of this Pledge Agreement may be waived, amended,
or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the party
against which enforcement of such waiver, amendment, or modification is sought.
This Pledge Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower and Agent, and the
successors and assigns of each, and shall inure to the benefit of Agent and the
Lenders and their successors and assigns and to the benefit of the Borrower and
the Borrower's successors and permitted assigns; provided that the Borrower
shall not have any right to (i) assign this Pledge Agreement or any interest
herein, or (ii) to assign any interest in the Collateral or any part thereof, or
otherwise pledge, encumber or grant any option with respect to the Collateral or
any part thereof, or any cash or property held by the Borrower as Collateral
under this Pledge Agreement if any such assignment, pledge, encumbrance or grant
would constitute a violation of the Loan Agreement. The rights of Agent under
this Pledge Agreement shall automatically be transferred to any transferee to
which Agent transfers the Note and the Loan Agreement pursuant to the terms
thereof. The construction, interpretation, validity, enforceability and effect
of all provisions of this Pledge Agreement including, but not limited to, the
payment of the Obligations and the legality of the interest rate and other
charges shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts (without regard to conflicts of laws). The
Borrower agrees to submit to non-exclusive personal jurisdiction in Suffolk
County, in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts in any action or proceeding arising
out of this Pledge Agreement and, in furtherance of such agreement, the Borrower
hereby agrees and consents that, without limiting other methods of obtaining
jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction over the Borrower in any such action or
proceeding may be obtained within or without the jurisdiction of any court
located in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and that any process or notice of
motion or other application to any such court in connection with any such action
or proceeding may be served upon the Borrower by registered or certified mail to
or by personal service at the last known address of the Borrower, whether such
address be within or without the jurisdiction of any such court.

      22. Executive Offices. The Borrower shall not (i) change the location of
its chief executive offices or sole place of business from the location as of
the date hereof or remove its books and records from such location, or (ii)
change its name, identity or structure if, in either case, such change is
prohibited by the Loan Agreement.

      23. Notices. Notices by Agent to the Borrower, to be effective, shall be
in writing and shall be hand-delivered or sent by Federal Express, or other
reputable national overnight courier service, or by postage pre-paid registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Borrower at its
address set forth below their signatures hereto, with a copy in each instance to
Rosenman & Colin LLP at the address set forth in Section 14.1 of the Loan
Agreement, and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made (a) when
delivered if hand-delivered or sent by Federal Express, or other reputable
national overnight courier service, or (b) when delivered if sent by registered
or certified mail. Any communications by the Borrower to Agent may be given in
any manner set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, with a copy to
Riemer & Braunstein LLP, Attention: Steven J. Weinstein, Esq., to the addresses
set forth in Section14.1 of the Loan Agreement.

      24. Entire Understanding. Agent acknowledges that this Pledge Agreement,
the Note and the other Loan Documents and Security Documents set forth the
entire agreement and understanding of Agent and the Borrower with respect to the
Loan and that no oral or other agreements, understanding, representation or
warranties exist with respect to the Loan, other than those set forth in this
Pledge Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents.

      25. Counterpart Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when
taken together, shall constitute but one instrument.
