improve, enlarge and expand projects for the purpose of promoting industry and
trade by inducing manufacturing, industrial, commercial and research enterprises

costs of acquiring, constructing, enlarging and equipping certain real property

the Lessee for use as a coal-fired boiler facility.

      After careful study and investigation of the nature of the Lessee's
request, the Issuer has determined that the acquisition, renovation, enlarging
and equipping of the Project for lease to the Lessee will result in the
promotion of the public good and general welfare, trade, commerce, industry and
employment opportunities and the promotion of the general welfare of the City
and State, and that the Issuer, in issuing its revenue bond to pay the costs of
the Project, will be acting in furtherance of the public purposes for which it
was created.

      By proper action, the Issuer has authorized the issuance of its $1,590,000
principal amount Industrial Revenue Bond, Series 1985 (Ansell Project #2) (the

      expenditures made or obligations issued with respect to facilities of
      which the Tenant or any Related Person of the Tenant is a principal user.

           (b) The Borrower shall deliver to the Bank an opinion of Bond Counsel

     (s) Less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the proceeds of the Bond will be
used, directly or indirectly, for the acquisition of land (or an interest
therein), and no land to be acquired with any proceeds of the Bond will be used
for farming purposes.

     (t) Rehabilitation expenditures, if any, with respect to any existing
building (and the equipment therefor) which is to be acquired with proceeds of
the Bond shall equal or exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the cost of acquiring

      Section 4.1. Demise of the Project. The Issuer demises and leases to the
Lessee, and the Lessee leases from the Issuer, the Project at the rental set
forth in Section 5.3 hereof and in accordance with the provisions of this Lease

      Section 4.2. Issuance of the Bond; Application of Proceeds.
Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Lease Agreement, the

first-class materials and in a good, substantial and workmanlike manner, subject
to the provisions of paragraph (d) below, and Lessee agrees that all plans,
specifications and


                                      -17-
<PAGE>   23


contracts will be approved in writing by the Bank. The Lessee shall also cause
the Project to be equipped with the Equipment (if any) described in Exhibit B
hereto. The Lessee agrees that the acquisition, renovation, enlarging and
equipping of the Project will be completed as promptly as practicable after the
issuance of the Bond (but in no event later than December 31, 1986 which shall
be the Completion Date) but if such acquisition, renovation, enlarging and
equipping is not completed, there shall be no resulting liability on the part of
the Issuer and no diminution in or postponenment of the payments required to be
made by the Lessee hereunder or under the Guaranty.

      (b) The Lessee shall cause the acquisition, renovation, enlarging and
equipping of the Project to comply with all applicable Governmental
Requirements. The Lessee shall obtain, or cause to be obtained, and maintain in
full force and effect all certificates, licenses, permits, authorizations,
consents and approvals from Governmental Authorities required for the
acquisition, renovation, enlarging and equipping of the Project. The Lessee
shall also obtain, or cause to be obtained, and maintain in full force and
effect all certificates, licenses, permits, authorizations, consents and
approvals from Governmental Authorities required for the use, occupancy or
operation of the Project. The Lessee shall deliver to the Issuer, the Bondholder
and the Trustee copies of such certificates, licenses, permits, authorizations,
consents and approvals upon written request.

      (c) The Lessee, and to the extent applicable the Issuer, shall comply with
restrictive covenants and easements affecting the Project, if any.

      (d) The Lessee shall notify the Bondholder and the Trustee within ten (10)
days of the Lessee's discovery or the Lessee's receipt of notification
(whichever occurs first) of any material departure from the Plans and, upon
demand by the Bondholder, shall correct any and all defects in the Project and
any and all material departures from the Plans, except those departures which
the Bondholder has approved.

      (e) The Lessee shall purchase on behalf of the Issuer all materials,
personal property, fixtures and equipment to be used or incorporated in the
renovation, enlarging and equipping of the Project, including the Equipment but
excluding any such items purchased by the contractors working on the Project, so
that the absolute ownership thereof is vested in the Issuer immediately upon
delivery thereof to the Project Site. The Lessee shall cause each contractor
working on the Project to purchase all materials, personal property, fixtures
and equipment which such contractor purchases for use or incorporation in the
renovation and equipping of the Project so that the absolute ownership thereof
is vested in such contractor immediately upon delivery thereof to the Project


                                      -18-
<PAGE>   24


Site and the absolute ownership thereof will be vested in the Issuer immediately
upon payment therefor by the Issuer to the contractor. If required by the
Bondholder, the Lessee shall produce and furnish, the contracts, bills of sale,
statements, receipted vouchers, or other agreements under which title thereto is
acquired by the Lessee on behalf of the Issuer or such contractor, as the case
may be. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lessee expressly
covenants and agrees that the Lessee shall not purchase or permit any contractor
to purchase any such materials, personal property, fixtures or equipment subject
to any security agreement or other agreement or contract under which any person
reserves the right to remove or repossess any such materials, personal property,
fixtures or equipment.

      (f) As often as the Issuer or the Bondholder may require, the Lessee shall
permit an engineer or any other person designated by the Issuer or the
Bondholder to enter upon and inspect the Project and all materials to be used in
the acquisition, renovation, enlarging and equipping of the Project, to examine
all detailed plans and shop drawings which may be kept at the construction site,
and to discuss the progress of construction with, and to be advised as to the
same by, the Authorized Lessee Representative or any contractor working on the
Project. Inspection of the construction by an engineer or any other person so
designated shall be for the sole purpose of protecting the security for the
Bond, and such inspection is in no way to be construed as a representation that
there is compliance with the Plans or that the construction of the Project is
free from faulty materials or workmanship.

      (g) In the event of default of any contractor or subcontractor under any
contract made by it in connection with the Project, the Issuer, or the Lessee as
agent for the Issuer, shall promptly proceed (at Lessee's sole cost and expense)
to exhaust all remedies of the Issuer and the Lessee against said contractors
and subcontractors or their sureties for the performance of the contract.

      (h) Upon the request of the Lessee, if Lessee is not in default hereunder,
the Issuer may issue and sell one or more series of Additional Bonds pursuant to
the Indenture to pay the cost of completing the Project, the costs of additions,
modifications or improvements to the Project, or the costs of additions,
modifications, or improvements to other properties of the Lessee located within
the geographical area of operation of the Issuer in Dothan, Alabama as the
Lessee may deem necessary or desirable; provided, that: (a) in the opinion of
Bond Counsel, which opinion shall be in writing and filed with the Trustee and
the Issuer, the interest on such Additional Bonds shall be exempt from federal
income tax within the limitations of Section 103(b)(6) of the Code and the
regulations thereunder, and the interest on the Bond initially

the Code and the regulations thereunder, (b) the terms of such Additional Bonds
are approved in writing by the Lessee, (c) the Issuer and the Lessee enter into
any amendment to this Lease Agreement necessary or desirable in connection with
the issuance of such Additional Bonds, and (d) the Issuer complies with all
other provisions of Section 203 of the Indenture with respect to the issuance of
Additional Bonds.

expenses incidental to any one or more of the foregoing, including the premium
on any payment or performance bonds.

      (c) Payment or reimbursement of the legal and accounting fees and

      Section 6.2. Removal of Equipment. The Lessee may remove or permit the

that may lawfully be paid in installments over a period of years, the Lessee
shall be obligated to pay only such installments as are required to be paid
during the Term.

      The Lessee may in good faith contest any such taxes, assessments and other
charges, at the Lessee's expense and in the Lessee's name or, if required by
law, in the name of the Issuer. In the event of any such contest, the Lessee may
permit the taxes, assessments or other charges so contested to remain unpaid
during the period of such contest and any appeal therefrom, provided that the
Lessee furnishes the Issuer and the Trustee with an opinion of Independent
Counsel, to the effect that by nonpayment of any such items the security
afforded pursuant to the terms of the Lease Assignment or the Indenture will
not be materially endangered or the Project nor will any part of the Project be
subject to loss or forfeiture. Otherwise such taxes, assessments or charges
shall be paid forthwith. The Issuer at the expense of the Lessee will cooperate
fully with the Lessee in any such contest. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
however, the Lessee shall pay all taxes, assessments and other charges which may
be subject to any contest or any appeal therefrom on or before the date when

prior to the commencement, during, or prior to or upon the conclusion of any
contest or appeal.

      The Lessee may at its own expense and in its own name and behalf apply for
any tax exemption allowed by the State of Alabama or any political or taxing
subdivision thereof under any existing or future provision of law which grants
or may grant any such tax exemption.

      value of the Project. The insurance required by this subsection may
      contain a deductible provision of not in excess of $1,000 direct damage
      applicable to each separate instance of loss or damage insured against.

      protection for direct and indirect damage or loss to the Project from the
      risks named in subsection (a) of this Section and from flood, earthquake,
      collapse, collision and theft.

           (d) Workers' Compensation insurance as required by law.

           The Net Proceeds of the insurance carried pursuant to the provisions
      of this Section shall be applied as follows: (i) the Net Proceeds of the
      insurance required by subsections (a) and (c) shall be applied as provided
      in Section 7.1 hereof; and (ii) the Net Proceeds of the insurance required
      by subsections (b) and (d) shall be applied toward extinguishment or

                                      -27-

satisfaction of the liability with respect to which such insurance proceeds have
been or are to be paid.

      Each policy required by this Section: (i) shall be issued by a generally
recognized and responsible insurer selected by the Lessee authorized to issue
such coverage, under the form of policy provided, in accordance with the laws of
the State of Alabama; (ii) shall name the Trustee, the Bank and the Issuer as
insured parties (the Trustee, the Bank and the Issuer each being called, in this
Section, an "Additional Insured"); (iii) shall provide that the policy cannot be
cancelled as to each Additional Insured except after the insurer gives each
Additional Insured thirty (30) days written notice of cancellation; (iv) shall
provide that the policy cannot lapse if it is not, renewed for any reason except
after the insurer gives each Additional Insured thirty (30) days written notice
of the non-renewal; (v) shall provide that no material change in the coverage
provided by the policy shall be effective except after the insurer gives each
Additional Insured thirty (30) days written notice of the change; (vi) shall
state that notice of any claim against any Additional Insured shall be deemed to
have occurred only when an officer or authorized agent of the Additional Insured
has received actual notice, and has actual knowledge, of the claim; and (vii)
shall not be subject to invalidation as to any Additional Insured by reason of
any act or omission of the Lessee and shall not be subject to invalidation as to
the Lessee by reason of any act or omission of any Additional Insured.

      The Lessee shall not procure or maintain in force any insurance policy
which might have the effect of reducing the loss payable under any policy
required pursuant to this Section. The insurance herein required may be
contained in blanket policies now or hereafter maintained by the Lessee.

      Immediately upon the issuance of each policy required under this Section,
the Lessee shall deliver a duplicate original policy or certificate of insurance
to the Trustee. The Lessee shall renew each policy on or before the date
specified therein for renewal and shall within ten (10) days of such renewal
deliver to the Trustee a duplicate original renewal policy, endorsement or
certificate of insurance evidencing such renewal.

      Upon request by the Trustee, the Lessee shall execute a separate
instrument to assign to the Bank, as collateral for the Bond, all policies of
insurance required under this Section.

      Section 6.5. Performance by Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank. If the Lessee
shall fail to perform any of its duties or obligations under this Lease
Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 6.1, 6.3 and 6.4) or shall
fail to comply with any provision of this Lease Agreement (including, without


                                      -28-
<PAGE>   34

limitation, Section 6.1, 6.3 and 6.4), the Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank may
(but shall be under no obligation to) pay all amounts, or take any action,
required to perform any of such duties or obligations or to comply with any
provisions of this Lease Agreement (including, without limitation, paying for or
performing required repairs, paying taxes, assessments and other governmental
charges, and obtaining any required insurance policy). All amounts so advanced
by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank, and all expenses incurred by the Issuer,
the Trustee or the Bank in taking any such action, shall be additional
obligations of the Lessee to the party making the advance or incurring the
expense, payable upon demand with interest at the rate which is two percent (2%)
per annum more than the Base Rate.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                      DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION AND CONDEMNATION

      Section 7.1. Damage and Destruction. If prior to payment in full of the
Bond the Project is damaged by fire or other casualty to such extent that the
claim for loss (including any deductible amount pertaining thereto) resulting
from such damage is not greater than the amount of the deductible under the
insurance policy required by Section 6.4(a), the Lessee shall be obligated to
continue to pay the amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof.
In the event of such damage or destruction, the Lessee shall proceed promptly to
and shall Substantially Restore the property damaged or destroyed.

      If prior to payment in full of the Bond the Project is destroyed or is
damaged by fire or other casualty to such extent that the claim for loss
(including any deductible amount pertaining thereto) resulting from such
destruction or damage is in excess of the amount of the deductible under the
insurance policy required by Section 6.4(a), the Lessee shall be obligated to
continue to pay the amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof.
In the event of such damage or destruction, the Lessee shall promptly give
written notice thereof to the Trustee, and all Net Proceeds of insurance
resulting from claims for such losses shall be paid to and held in the Bond Fund
by the Trustee and shall be invested in securities of the type referred to in
Section 4.11 hereof. if within thirty (30) days after such damage or destruction
the Lessee exercises its option to purchase the Project pursuant to Section 11.1
of this Agreement, the Trustee shall apply the Net Proceeds to the purchase
price payable by the Lessee at the closing of the Lessee's purchase of the
Project. Otherwise, the Lessee shall proceed promptly to, and shall,
substantially restore the property damaged or destroyed, and the Trustee shall
apply the Net Proceeds of insurance received by it to payment of the costs for
such replacement, repair, rebuilding or restoration as may be required for the
property damaged or destroyed to be Substantially Restored, either on completion


                                      -29-
<PAGE>   35




thereof or as the work progresses, as directed by the Lessee and the Issuer.
Each such direction of the Lessee and the Issuer shall, be accompanied by a
requisition, in form acceptable to the Trustee, signed by the Authorized Lessee
Representative and the Authorized Issuer Representative and approved by the
Bondholder, certifying, as to the replacement, repair, rebuilding or restoration
and as to the Net Proceeds of insurance held by the Trustee, to the same effect
as the certificate of the Authorized Lessee Representative and the Authorized
Issuer Representative required for disbursements from the Construction Fund is
required to certify as to the Construction Fund. The Trustee may conclusively
rely upon such direction of the Lessee and the Issuer and shall have no
liability or responsibility for payments made pursuant to this Section in
reliance thereon. If such Net Proceeds are not sufficient to pay in full the
costs of such replacement, repair, rebuilding or restoration, the Lessee shall
nonetheless complete the work thereof and shall pay that portion of the cost
thereof in excess of the amount of Net Proceeds. The Lessee shall not, by reason
of the payment of such excess costs, be entitled to any reimbursement from the
Issuer or the Trustee or any abatement, dimunition or postponement of the
amounts payable under Section 5.3 hereof.

      Any balance of Net Proceeds remaining after payment of all costs of
replacement, repair, rebuilding or restoration required to Substantially Restore
the property damaged or destroyed shall be paid to the Trustee and applied to
prepay the principal balance on the Bond by reducing the principal portion of
payments thereon in the inverse order of their due dates. If payment in full of
the Bond has been made, all Net Proceeds shall be paid to the Lessee.

      For purposes of this Lease Agreement, property damaged or destroyed shall
be considered "Substantially Restored" if, within four (4) consecutive months
after the date of damage or destruction, it is in substantially the same
condition as existed prior to the event causing such damage or destruction, with
such changes, alterations and modifications (including the substitution and
addition of other property) as may be desired by the Lessee, subject to approval
by the Trustee, and as (A) will not impair operating unity or productive
capacity of the Project and (B) will not change the character of the Project to
such an extent that the Issuer would not be permitted to own, finance or lease
the Project under the Act. The action required to "Substantially Restore" the
property damaged or destroyed shall be the action required for the Project to be
Substantially Restored.

      Section 7.2. Condemnation. If the title in and to, or the temporary use
of, the Project shall be taken under the exercise of the power of eminent domain
by any Governmental Authority or by any person acting under governmental
authority, the Lessee shall be obligated to continue to pay the amounts



                                      -30-
<PAGE>   36



required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof. The Lessee shall pay to the
Trustee the Net Proceeds received by the Lessee from any award made in any such
eminent domain proceeding. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee the Net Proceeds
received by the Issuer. Unless the Lessee exercises its option to purchase the
Project pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof within thirty (30) days from the date of
entry of a final order in the eminent domain proceeding granting such
condemnation, the Trustee shall apply the Net Proceeds which it receives in one
or more of the following ways, as it shall deem desirable:

         (a) the restoration of the Project to substantially the same condition
as existed immediately prior to the acquisition of title by the person
exercising the power of eminent domain;

         (b) the acquisition, by construction or otherwise, of other
improvements suitable for the Lessee's operations of the Project and which (A)
will not impair operating unity or productive capacity of the Project and (B)
will not change the character of the Project to such an extent that the Issuer
would not be permitted to own, finance or lease the Project under the Act;
provided, that such improvements will be acquired subject to no liens, security
interests or encumbrances prior to the lien and security interests afforded by
the Lease Assignment and the Indenture, other than Permitted Encumbrances; or

         (c) payment to the Trustee to prepay the principal balance on the Bond
by reducing the principal portion of payments thereon in the inverse order of
their due dates and requiring the Lessee to pay any principal balance left due
and owing plus accrued interest thereon as a mandatory repayment of the Bond,
or, if the payment in full of the Bond has been made, payment to the Lessee.

In the event that the Lessee exercises its option to purchase the Project
pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof within thirty (30) days following the entry of a
final order in any such eminent domain proceeding granting such condemnation and
thereafter purchases the Project pursuant to Article XI hereof, the Bank shall
apply the Net Proceeds which it receives from any award made in any such eminent
domain proceeding to the purchase price payable by the Lessee at the closing of
the Lessee's purchase of the Project.

If the Trustee elects a restoration under paragraph (a) or the acquisition of
improvements under paragraph (b), the Lessee shall direct such restoration or
acquisition and such direction shall be accompanied by a certificate of the
Authorized Lessee Representative and the Authorized Issuer Representative and
endorsed by the Bondholder, in form acceptable to the Trustee, as to such
restoration or acquisition and as to the Net


                                      -31-

<PAGE>   37
Proceeds of such condemnation award, and from time to time the Lessee and the
Issuer may direct that the Trustee apply the Net Proceeds toward such
restoration or such acquisition, as the case may be, as costs of the restoration
or acquisition are incurred, provided that each such direction by the Lessee and
the Issuer will be accompanied by a current certificate of the Authorized Lessee
Representative and the Authorized Issuer Representative and endorsed by the
Bondholder, in form acceptable to the Trustee as to such restoration or
acquisition and as to the Net Proceeds of such condemnation award. The Trustee
may conclusively rely upon any such directions and shall have no liability for
payments made pursuant to this Section in reliance thereon.

The Issuer shall cooperate fully with the Lessee in the handling and conduct of
any prospective or pending eminent domain proceeding with respect to the
Project. In no event will the Issuer or the Lessee voluntarily settle, or
consent to the settlement of, any prospective or pending eminent domain
proceeding with respect to the Project or any part of the Project without the
prior written consent of the other and of the Trustee.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                SPECIAL COVENANTS

      Section 8.1. No Obligation of the Issuer with Respect to Project. The
Issuer has, and shall have, no obligation or duty to supervise, inspect or
otherwise observe the Project.

      Section 8.2. Right of Access to the Project. In addition to the rights
granted under Section 4.2 hereof, the Issuer, the Trustee and the duly
authorized agents of either or both of them shall have such rights of access to
the Project as may be reasonably necessary to cause to be completed and
acquisition provided for in Section 4.2 hereof and thereafter for the proper
maintenance of the Project in the event of failure by the Lessee to perform its
obligations under Section 6.1 hereof.

      Section 8.3. Granting of Easements Affecting Project Site. The Lessee may
at any time or times, but only with written approval of the Bondholder, grant
easements, licenses, rights of way, and other rights or privileges with respect
to the Project Site, provided such grant or conveyance will not impair the
effective use of the Project, will not interfere with the operation of the
Project, will not reduce the value of the Project, and will be subordinate and
inferior to the Indenture and the Lease Assignment.

      Section 8.4. Release and Indemnification Covenants. The Lessee releases
the Issuer, the Trustee and the Bank from, covenants and agrees that the Issuer,
the Trustee and the Bank shall not be liable for, and shall indemnify and save
the


                                      -32-
<PAGE>   38
Issuer, the Trustee and the Bank harmless from and against all claims by or on
behalf of any person arising from: (i) the conduct or management of, or from any
work or thing done in or on, the Project during the Term; (ii) any condition of
the Project caused by the Lessee; (iii) any breach or default on the part of the
Lessee in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease Agreement;
(iv) any act of negligence of the Lessee or of any agents, contractors,
servants, employees or licensees of the Lessee; and (v) any loss or damage to
property or any injury to or death of any persons occurring on or about or
resulting from any defect in the Project. The Lessee shall also indemnify and
save the Issuer, the Trustee and the Bank harmless from and against all costs
and expenses incurred in or in connection with any action or proceeding brought
on any of the matters against which the Lessee has indemnified them under this
Section, and, upon notice from the Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank, the Lessee
shall defend them or either of them in any such action or proceeding. The
foregoing indemnity shall be effective only to the extent of any loss sustained
by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank in excess of the Net Proceeds received by
the Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank, as the case may be, from any insurance
carried with respect to the loss sustained and shall not be effective for
damages that result from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of
the Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank; provided, however, that the negligence or
misconduct of one indemnified party shall not affect the indemnification of the
other party. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease Agreement to the contrary,
the indemnification agreements contained in this Section shall not be effective
against liability for damage arising out of bodily injury to persons or damage
to property caused by or resulting from the sole negligence of the Issuer, the
Trustee or the Bank, as the case may be.

      Section 8.5. Financial Statements. The Lessee shall furnish to the
Trustee:

         (a) As soon as practicable after the end of each calendar year, and in
any event within ninety (90) days thereafter, duplicate copies of a balance
sheet and statement of income for the Lessee in the form then currently used by
the Trustee and such other financial information (including copies of federal
and state income tax returns as filed) as the Trustee may reasonably request;
and

         (b) promptly upon receipt thereof, one copy of an annual audited
financial report submitted to the Lessee by independent accountants in
connection with an annual audit made by them on the books of the Lessee.

Each balance sheet and statement of income shall be in reasonable detail,
satisfactory in scope to the Trustee and certified as accurate and complete by
the Lessee and any


                                      -33-

<PAGE>   39
accountant or agent who prepared them or assisted in preparing them.

      Section 8.6. Further Assurances and Corrective Instruments. The Issuer and
the Lessee shall, from time to time, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause
to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, such supplements hereto and such
further instruments as may reasonably be required for correcting any inadequate
or incorrect description of the Project or for carrying out the intention of or
facilitating the performance of this Lease Agreement. The Lessee shall also,
from time to time upon request by the Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank, make,
execute and deliver or cause to be made, executed and delivered any and all
other and further instruments, documents, certificates, agreements, financing
statements, letters, representations and other writings which may be necessary
or desirable, in the opinion of the Issuer, the Trustee or the Bank, in order to
effectuate, complete, correct, perfect or continue and preserve the obligations
of the Lessee under any of the Financing Documents.

      Section 8.7. Tax Exempt Status of the Bond. The Lessee shall use ninety
percent (90%) or more of the proceeds derived from the sale of the Bond to pay
those items of the Costs of the Project, or portions thereof, which constitute
costs of acquisition, construction, reconstruction or improvement of land or
property of a character subject to the allowance for depreciation within the
meaning of Section 103(b)(6)(A) of the Code.

      The Lessee will not permit the use of the proceeds of the Bond in a
manner, or take or omit to take any other action, or permit any action to be
taken, which will cause the interest on the Bond to become subject to federal
income taxes under the Code, provided, that the Lessee shall not have violated
this covenant if the interest on the Bond becomes taxable to a person who is a
"substantial user" of the Project or a "related person". The terms "substantial
user" and "related person" as used in this Section shall have the meaning
ascribed to them in Section 103(b) of the Code. The Lessee will file or cause to
be filed with the Internal Revenue Service or any other authorized governmental
agency any and all statements or other instruments, if any, required under
Section 103 of the Code, including the regulations thereunder, so that the
interest on the Bond will continue to be excludable from the gross income of the
holder of the Bond for federal income tax purposes.

      Section 8.8. Payment of Issuer Expenses. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Lessee covenants to pay any expenses not specifically
mentioned herein which are incurred by the Issuer in connection with the Project
or any of the Financing Documents, and which are not payable from the
Construction Fund pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof.



                                      -34-

<PAGE>   40
      Section 8.9. Investment Tax Credit. The Issuer covenants and agrees that
any investment tax credit with respect to any part of the Project shall be made
available to the Lessee and the Issuer will fully cooperate with the Lessee in
any effort by the Lessee to avail the Lessee of any such investment tax credit,
but the Issuer shall have no responsibility or liability for failure of the
Lessee to receive any such investment tax credit.

      Section 8.10. Registration and Transfer of the Bond. The Bond shall be
registered as to both principal and interest. The Bond Registrar, as defined in
the Indenture, shall keep registers for registration and transfer of the Bond.
The registration books shall list the names and addresses of each holder of the
Bond as specified by each such holder in writing (delivered to the Bond
Registrar) upon acquisition of its Bond and from time to time thereafter.

      Transfer of the Bond shall as provided herein and in Section 210 of the
Indenture be made only upon surrender thereof at the principal office of the
Bond Registrar by the registered owner in person or by his attorney duly
authorized in writing together with a written instrument of transfer in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee, duly executed by the
registered owner or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

      The Issuer and Bond Registrar may deem and treat the registered holder of
the Bond as the absolute owner of the Bond for the purpose of receiving payment
of or on account of principal thereof and interest due thereon and for all other
purposes whatsoever, and the Issuer and the Bond Registrar shall not be affected
by any notice to the contrary.

      Upon surrender for transfer of the Bond at the principal office of the
Bond Registrar, the Bond Registrar shall either reissue the Bond to the
transferee or transferees or shall execute and deliver to the transferee or
transferees in exchange for the Bond a new registered Bond without coupons in
the same principal amount.

      The holder of the Bond shall pay any tax or other governmental charge
required to be paid with respect to any transfer of the Bond.

      If any holder of the Bond sells, transfers, assigns or otherwise disposes
of any interest in the Bond, such sale, transfer, assignment orother disposition
(hereinafter generally referred to as a "transfer"): (i) shall be recorded
reflecting the ownership of the transferee on the books of the holder; (ii) the
holder shall receive the interest or principal payments with respect to the
transferee's interest in the Bond as agent for the transferee; and (iii) any
transfer of the transferee's interest must be recorded on the books of the
holder in a book entry system.

      Section 8.11. Representations and Agreements of Lessee and Issuer with
Respect to Capital Expenditures. The Issuer is issuing the Bond pursuant to an
election made by it (prior to issuance of the Bond) under Section 103(b)(6)(D)
of the Code. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the interest on the
Bond be and remain free from federal income taxation, and, to that end, the
Lessee and the Issuer represent and agree with each other as follows:

         (a) The Lessee represents that the sum of (i) the aggregate principal
amount of the Bond being issued plus (ii) capital expenditures made during the
three year period immediately preceding the issuance and delivery of the Bond
(other than those mentioned in Section 103(b)(6)(F) of the Code) with respect
to Local Facilities does not exceed $10,000,000.

         (b) During the three-year period immediately following the date of the
issuance and delivery of the Bond, the Lessee shall not make or cause or permit
to be made any capital expenditures (other than those mentioned in section
103(b)(6)(F) of the Code) with respect to Local Facilities which would cause
the interest payable on the Bond to be or become subject to federal income
taxation.

         (c) Within ninety (90) days after the first three anniversary dates of
the issuance and delivery of the Bond, the Lessee shall furnish to the holder of
the Bond a certificate of an independent certified public accountant (or firm
thereof) stating that, during the period beginning three years prior to the date
of issuance and delivery of the Bond and extending through the applicable date
such certificate is to cover, capital expenditures (including as capital
expenditures for this purpose the original principal amount of the Bond) in
excess of $10,000,000 (or any such larger amount as may at the time be permitted
by law) have not been paid or incurred with respect to Local Facilities. Each
such certificate shall list and describe by date, payee and purpose all such
capital expenditures paid or incurred since the period covered by the preceding
such certificate or, in the case of the first such certificate, since the date
of issuance of the Bond.

         (d) The Issuer and the Lessee shall fully comply, during the term of
this Lease Agreement, with all rules, rulings, and regulations promulgated by
the Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service with respect to
bonds issued under Section 103(b)(6)(D) of the Code so as to maintain the
tax-exempt status of the interest payable on the Bond. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Lessee shall file, and shall cause each
Principal Project User to file, a copy of the Issuer's election to have Section
103(b)(6)(D) apply to the Bond with the Lessee's or such Principal Project
User's (as the case may be) federal income tax return for the


                                      -36-


<PAGE>   42
fiscal year which includes the date of issuance of the Bond, and the Lessee
shall file, and shall cause each Principal Project user to file, all
supplemental statements listing capital expenditures when and as required by the
regulations promulgated under Section 103 of the Code.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASING; SELLING; PREPAYMENT;
                          RENT PREPAYMENT AND ABATEMENT

      Section 9.1. Assignment and Subleasing. The Lessee shall not assign this
Lease or sublease the Project, as a whole or in part, without obtaining the
prior written consent of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Bondholder.

      Section 9.2. Assignment of Revenues and Lease Agreement by Issuer. This
Lease Agreement and all rents, revenues and receipts derived by the Issuer under
this Lease Agreement, including but not limited to all payments required under
Section 5.3 hereof, are assigned to the Trustee pursuant to the Lease Assignment
as security for payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest on and
other amounts payable under the Bond. The Lessee assents to such assignment and
further agrees to assign all rents and revenues derived by Lessee under any and
all subleases of the Project, and hereby agrees that, as to the Trustee, the
Lessee's obligation to make such payments shall be absolute and shall not be
subject to any defense or any right of set-off, counterclaim or recoupment
arising out of any breach by the Issuer of any obligation to the Lessee, whether
hereunder or otherwise. The Issuer hereby directs the Lessee, and the Lessee
hereby agrees, to pay to the Trustee all amounts payable to the Issuer pursuant
to this Lease Agreement, other than amounts paid on account of or to reimburse
the Issuer for expenses of the Issuer which the Lessee is required to pay and
other than amounts to be paid the Issuer as indemnification.

      Section 9.3. Restrictions on Sale of Project by Issuer. The Issuer shall
not sell, convey, assign, transfer, mortgage, encumber or otherwise dispose of
any part of the Project during the Term, without obtaining the prior written
consent of the Trustee, the Lessee and the Bondholder.

      Section 9.4. Redemption or Prepayment of Bond. If no Event of Default
exists, the Issuer, upon receipt of written notice from the Lessee and the
Trustee directing prepayment of the Bond in accordance with the provisions of
the Bond, shall forthwith take all steps that may be necessary under the Bond to
effect prepayment or redemption of all or part of the Bond as may be specified
by the Lessee, on the earliest prepayment date specified by the Lessee on which
such prepayment may be made under the Bond, provided that the Lessee may direct
the redemption or the prepayment of the Bond as an entirety whether



                                      -37-

<PAGE>   43
or not an Event of Default then exists hereunder. The Issuer shall not be
obligated to arrange for notice of prepayment or to take any other step
necessary for prepayment under the provisions of the Bond unless the Lessee
provides reasonable assurance to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Bank that the
funds required for the proposed prepayment will be available for that purpose on
or before the date of the proposed prepayment. Such assurance shall be provided
at the same time as the Lessee's notice directing prepayment of the Bond is
given to the Issuer.

      Section 9.5. Prepayment of Rents. There is expressly reserved to the
Lessee the right, and the Lessee is authorized and permitted, at any time it may
choose, to prepay all or any part of the rents payable under Section 5.3 hereof
(or to cause such rent to be prepaid as contemplated by Bond), and the Issuer
agrees that the Trustee may accept such prepayments when the same are tendered
by the Lessee. All rents so prepaid shall be credited to the rental payments
specified in Section 5.3 hereof, in the inverse order of their due dates, and at
the election of the Lessee shall be used for the prepayment of the Bond in the
manner and to the extent permitted under the Bond.

      Section 9.6. References to Bond Ineffective After Bond Paid. Upon payment
in full of the Bond (or provision for payment thereof having been made in
accordance with the provisions of the Bond), all references in this Lease
Agreement to the Bond shall be ineffective and neither the Issuer, the Trustee
nor the Bank shall thereafter have any rights hereunder, except for any rights
that shall have theretofore vested.

                         EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

      Section 10.2. Remedies on Default. Whenever any Event of Default referred
to in Section 10. 1 hereof shall have happened and is continuing, the Issuer or
the Trustee, as specified below, may, to the extent permitted by law, take any
one or more of the following remedial steps:

           (a) The Issuer, with the consent of the Trustee, or the Trustee may,
      at its option, or upon written request of the holder of the Bond, shall
      declare all installments of rent payable under Section 5.3 hereof
      immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become immediately
      due and payable.

           (b) The Issuer, with the consent of the Trustee, or the Trustee may
      re-enter and take possession of the Project without terminating this Lease
      Agreement and without any liability to the Lessee for such entry and
      repossession and sublease the Project for the account of the Lessee,
      holding the Lessee liable for the excess, if any, of the rent and other
      amounts payable by the Lessee under this Lease Agreement over the rents
      and other amounts which are payable by such sublessee under such sublease.

           (c) The Issuer, with the consent of the Trustee, or the Trustee may
      terminate this Lease, exclude the Lessee from possession of the Project
      and use its best efforts to lease the Project to another for the account
      of the Lessee, holding the Lessee liable for all rent and other payments
      due up to the effective date of such leasing and for the excess, if any,
      of the rent and other amounts payable by the Lessee under this Lease had
      this Lease not been terminated, over the rents and other amounts which are
      payable by such new Lessee under such new Lease.

           (d) The Issuer, with the consent of the Trustee, or the Trustee may
      from time to time take whatever action at law or in equity may appear
      necessary or desirable to collect the rents payable by the Lessee
      hereunder then due and thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance
      and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the Lessee
      under this Lease Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents.

The amounts required to be paid pursuant to subparagraph (a) above shall also
include any other payments then due or to become due hereunder.

      Any amounts collected pursuant to action taken under this Section shall be
paid directly to the Trustee.


                                      -40-

<PAGE>   46
      This Section shall be construed in conjunction with Section 902 of the
Indenture, and any portion which may appear to be contradictory shall be
construed in favor of the Issuer and the Trustee to give them the most liberal
interpretation for additional remedies in case of default.

      Section 10.3. No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Issuer or the Trustee is intended to be exclusive of any other
available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative
and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Lease Agreement
or any of the other Financing Documents now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity by statute. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing
upon any failure or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or
shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to
entitle the Issuer to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Article, it
shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be
herein expressly required. Such rights and remedies as are given the Issuer
hereunder shall also extend to, and may be exercised by, the Trustee, and the
Trustee shall be entitled to the benefit of all covenants and agreements herein
contained.

      Section 10.4. Agreement to Pay Attorneys' Fees and Expenses. If an Event
of Default occurs and the Issuer or the Trustee employs attorneys or incurs
other expenses for the collection of amounts payable under Section 5.3 hereof or
the enforcement of performance or observance of any obligation or agreement on
the part of the Lessee herein contained, the Lessee shall pay to the Issuer or
to the Trustee, as the case may be, the reasonable fees of such attorneys and
such other expenses so incurred by the Issuer or the Trustee.

      Section 10.5. No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. In the event any
agreement contained in this Lease Agreement should be breached by either party
and thereafter waived by the other party, such waiver shall be limited to the
particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach
hereunder.

      Section 10.6. Waiver of Appraisement and Valuation. If an Event of Default
occurs, the Lessee hereby waives, to the extent the Lessee may lawfully do so,
the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws
now or hereafter in force and all right to appraisement and redemption to which
the Lessee may be or become entitled.

      Section 11.1. General Option to Purchase Project. The Lessee shall have,
and is hereby granted, the option to purchase the Project at any time after the
fifth anniversary date of issuance of the Bond and prior to the expiration of
the Term. To exercise this option the Lessee shall give written notice to the
Issuer and to the Trustee, and shall specify therein the date of closing such

(90) days from the date such notice is mailed, and shall make arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for the taking of other steps required to effect the
prepayment in full of the Bond. The purchase price payable by the Lessee in the
event of the Lessee's exercise of the option granted in this Section shall be
the sum of the following:

      (a) an amount of money which will be sufficient to pay the full unpaid
principal balance on the Bond, including, without limitation, principal,
premium, if any, all interest to accrue to such prepayment date and all other
amounts due thereon, and any expenses incurred by the Issuer or the Trustee,
plus

      (b) the sum of five thousand dollars.

At the closing of the purchase pursuant to this Article, the Issuer will upon

quit claim deed, a release and a termination statement (with respect to any
effective Financing Statements) from the Trustee releasing the property with
respect to which the option was exercised.

      (b) Documents conveying to the Lessee legal title to the property being
purchased, as such property then exists, subject to the following: (i) those
liens and encumbrances (if any) to which title to said property was subject when
conveyed to the Issuer; (ii) those liens and encumbrances created by the Lessee
or to the creation or suffering of which the Lessee consented; (iii) those liens
and encumbrances resulting from the failure of the Lessee to perform or observe
any of the agreements on the Lessee's part contained in this Lease Agreement;
and (iv) Permitted Encumbrances other than this Lease Agreement, the Indenture
and the Lease Assignment.

      Section 11.3. Relative Position of Options and Lease Assignment. The

Assignment and the Indenture and may not be exercised if an Event of Default has
occurred hereunder.

      Section 11.4. Determination of Taxability. If a "Determination of
Taxability" (as defined in the Bond) occurs and as a result the Issuer is
required to prepay the Bond pursuant to the Bond, the Lessee shall be required
to purchase the Project not less than one business day prior to the date of any
such prepayment and agrees to pay to the Trustee as the purchase price for the
Project the amount necessary to effect such prepayment of the Bond pursuant to
the Bond, plus the sum of one hundred dollars. Upon the occurrence of a
Determination of Taxability, the Lessee shall also pay all other amounts which
the Issuer is required to pay under the terms of the Bond.

      The purchase price and other amounts provided for above shall be paid
directly to the Trustee.

      Section 11.5. Release of Unimproved Portion of Project Site. While the
Lessee is not in default hereunder, Lessee, at its option, may request the
Issuer to obtain from the Trustee the release of any of the Unimproved portion
of the Project Site not needed by the Issuer or the Lessee as a part of the
Project and not useful in the leasing or in the maintenance and care of the
Project, and the Issuer shall, pursuant to Section 605 of the Indenture, apply
to the Trustee for a release of said Unimproved property. The release shall be
executed upon compliance with the requirements of Section 605 of the Indenture.

      Section 11.6. Obligation to Purchase Project. The Lessee hereby agrees to
purchase, and the Issuer hereby agrees to sell, the Project for one hundred
dollars at the expiration of the Term (including any extension thereof pursuant
to Section 5.1 hereof) or at the prior termination of the Term, provided that
the Bond shall have been paid in full. The obligation provided for in this
Section shall be and remain subordinate and inferior to the Lease Assignment and
the Indenture and may not be exercised if an Event of Default exists hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE XII
