                  Mezzanine Note in an amount equal to one hundred percent
                  (100%) of such Proceeds together with the payment of the

<PAGE>

                  first day of an Interest Period, through the end of the
                  Interest Period during which such prepayment occurs (in which
                  case accrued interest shall be calculated as if such Interest
                  Period extends beyond the date of such prepayment and be
                  calculated as if the Loan has not been prepaid on such date),
                  and (2) in the event such prepayment is made on the first day
                  of an Interest Period, through the Prepayment Date.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided the Loan is still
                  owned solely by German American Capital Corporation at the
                  time of such prepayment, Mezzanine Borrower shall only be
                  required to pay Mezzanine Lender all unpaid interest on the
                  Principal Amount prepaid, such unpaid interest calculated
                  through the Prepayment Date.

            ii.   On the Prepayment Date, Mezzanine Borrower shall pay to
                  Mezzanine Lender all other sums, not including scheduled
                  interest payments but including and not limited to, the

                  Mezzanine Lender incurred in connection with the prepayment
                  (including without limitation, any costs and expenses
                  associated with a release of the Lien of the related Pledge as
                  set forth in Section 2.3.3 of the Mezzanine Loan Agreement as
