Events of Default under the Revolving Credit Agreement or the failure of the

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

         Section 5.2       Acceleration and Remedies. If any Guarantor Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, and upon the expiration of any applicable cure
period, if any, upon the election of the Requisite Revolving Lenders, the
Obligations, including accrued interest, shall immediately become due and
payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived, and the Agent, or if the Agent refuses to act upon
the direction of Requisite Revolving Lenders, the Revolving Lenders may (i)
exercise all rights set forth in Sections 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4, and (ii) may
exercise any or all of the rights and remedies provided (x) in this Pledge
Agreement, (y) in the Nebraska Uniform Commercial Code (the "Nebraska UCC") and
in the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code (the "Delaware UCC") to a secured party
when a debtor is in default under a security agreement and (z) by any other
applicable law. Upon the occurrence of a Guarantor Event of Default described in
Section 6.1(h)(1) or (2) of the Revolving Credit Agreement, acceleration under
this Section 5.2 shall occur automatically without the election, declaration,
notice or other act on the part of any of the Revolving Lenders.

                      VI. WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

         Section 6.1       Waivers, Amendments and Remedies. No delay or
omission of the Agent or Revolving Lenders to exercise any right or remedy
granted under this Pledge Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be
construed to be a waiver of any Guarantor Event of Default or an acquiescence
therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall
not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right or remedy, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms,
conditions or provisions of this Pledge Agreement whatsoever shall be valid
unless in writing signed by the Agent, and then only to the extent in such
writing specifically set forth. All rights and remedies contained in this Pledge
Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to
the Agent and the Revolving Lenders until the Obligations have been paid and
performed in full.

                             VII. GENERAL PROVISIONS

         Section 7.1       Dividends. Unless a Guarantor Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, any dividends payable in connection with the Pledged Stock
may be payable to the Guarantor.

         Section 7.2       Special Collateral Account. Subject to the provisions
of Section 7.1, all cash received by the Agent or the Revolving Lenders, if any,
with respect to the Collateral shall be deposited in a special collateral
account with the Agent for the Revolving Lenders and shall be held by the Agent
as security for the Obligations. The Guarantor shall have no control whatsoever
over said special collateral account. The Agent may, but is not required to, at
any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, apply any part of the
credit balance in said special collateral account to the payment of the
Obligations, in accordance with the Revolving Credit Agreement, whether or not
the Obligations shall be then due.

         Section 7.3       Registration of Pledged Stock. At the option of the
Agent, any registerable Collateral may at any time after the occurrence of a
Guarantor Event of Default and


                                      -5-

<PAGE>

upon the expiration of any applicable cure period, if any, be registered in the
name of FNB-O or its nominee as agent for the Revolving Lenders.

         Section 7.4       Exercise of Rights in Pledged Stock. After a
Guarantor Event of Default occurs and is continuing, and upon the expiration of
any applicable cure period, if any, the Agent or its nominee as agent for the
Revolving Lenders may at any time and from time to time, without notice,
exercise all voting and corporate rights relating to the Collateral, including,
without limitation, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges, or
options pertaining to any shares of the Pledged Stock and the Stock Rights as if
it were the absolute owner thereof. At all other times, the Guarantor may
exercise such rights.

         Section 7.5       Notice of Disposition of Pledged Stock. Notice of the
time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or
other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made shall be
reasonable if sent to the Guarantor, addressed as set forth in Article VIII, at
least ten (10) days prior to any such public sale or the time after which any
such private sale or other disposition may be made.

         Section 7.6       Terms of Disposition. The Guarantor agrees that the
private sale or other private disposition of Collateral consisting of securities
shall be commercially reasonable notwithstanding the possibility that a
substantially higher price might be realized if such sale or other disposition
were public and deferred until after registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, or compliance with any other applicable securities laws.

         Section 7.7       Possession of Collateral; Disclaimer. Beyond the
exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Collateral in the
physical possession of the Agent pursuant hereto, neither the Agent nor the
Revolving Lenders shall have any duty or liability to collect any sums due in
respect thereof or to protect, preserve or exercise any rights pertaining
thereto, and the Agent and each Revolving Lender shall be relieved of all
responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it to the Guarantor. No
course of dealing between the Guarantor and the Agent or the Revolving Lenders,
nor any failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the
Agent or the Revolving Lenders, any right, power or privilege hereunder or with
respect to the Obligations shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or
thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided and
provided in all other agreements, instruments and documents delivered, or to be
delivered, pursuant to or in connection with or to evidence any of the
Obligations are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any
rights and remedies of a secured party under the Nebraska UCC or the Delaware
UCC. The provisions of this Pledge Agreement are severable and if any clause or
provision thereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part,
then such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such clause or
provision, or part thereof, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or
provision in any other jurisdiction or any other clause or provision in this
Pledge Agreement or any jurisdiction.

         Section 7.8       Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. The
Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants
contained in Sections 4.1(a), 4.1(d) or 4.2 will cause irreparable injury to the
Revolving Lenders, that the Revolving Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in
respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the
Revolving Lenders to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations
of the Guarantor contained in this Pledge Agreement, that the covenants of the
Guarantor contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 7.8 shall be
specifically enforceable against the Guarantor.

and assignees, except that the Guarantor shall not have the right to assign its
rights nor delegate its duties under this Pledge Agreement, without the prior
written consent of all the Revolving Lenders.

         Section 7.11      Survival of Representations. All representations and
warranties of the Guarantor contained in this Pledge Agreement shall survive the

interest and penalties, if any, and (ii) all reasonable expenses, including the
reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the Agent and the
Revolving Lenders (which may be employees of the Agent or another Revolving
Lender) and of any experts and agents that the Revolving Lenders may incur in
connection with (a) the administration of this Pledge Agreement, (b) the custody
or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon,
any of the Pledged Stock, (c) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights
of the Revolving Lenders hereunder, or (d) the failure of the Guarantor to
perform or observe any of the provisions hereof or the failure of the Borrower
to perform or observe any of the provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement.

         Section 7.13      Choice of Law. This Pledge Agreement shall be
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nebraska.

         Section 7.14      Headings. The title of and section headings in this
Pledge Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the
interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Pledge Agreement.

         Section 7.15      Termination. This Pledge Agreement shall continue in
effect (notwithstanding the fact that from time to time there may be no
Obligations outstanding) until the Guarantor has received written notice from
the Revolving Lenders electing to terminate this

<PAGE>

Pledge Agreement or the Revolving Credit Agreement is terminated and there are
no Obligations outstanding (other than contingent obligations which, by their
terms, survive termination of the Revolving Credit Agreement). Upon such
termination, the Agent shall promptly return to the Guarantor all certificates
and documents in its possession representing Collateral hereunder and execute
and deliver to the Guarantor such releases and documents as the Guarantor shall
reasonably request to evidence such termination.

         Section 7.16      Counterparts. This Pledge Agreement may be executed
in several counterparts and such counterparts together shall constitute one and
the same instrument.

                                   IX. WAIVERS

         Section 9.1       Waivers. By execution of this Pledge Agreement, the
Guarantor intends that the Collateral shall be absolutely and unconditionally
available to secure the prompt payment when due of all Obligations, irrespective
of the unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of such obligations or the
unenforceability, illegality, invalidity or insufficiency of any security
therefor, together with all reasonable and documented costs, expenses and
attorneys' fees incurred by the Revolving Lenders in connection with any
Guarantor Event of Default.

         It shall not be necessary to procure the consent of the Guarantor or to
give any notice in reference to: (i) any settlement, renewal, extension,
modification, release, waiver, discharge or variation of terms of any of the
obligations of the Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other interested
person, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any impairment, release,
collection or liquidation of any collateral for the Obligations; (iii) any
acceptance of new or additional


                                      -8-

<PAGE>

documents, instruments or agreements in satisfaction or substitution of the
Obligations; (iv) any failure to file, record or register any security document,
to preserve or protect the collateral obtained thereby, or to perfect the
security interest therein; or (v) any other failure of the Agent or the
Revolving Lenders to exercise or enforce any of their rights against the
Guarantor.

         The Guarantor hereby expressly waives and dispenses with notice of
acceptance of this Pledge Agreement, notices of non-payment, default,
non-performance or protest, notice of the amount of indebtedness outstanding at
any time, presentments, protests, demands, prosecution of collection,
foreclosure and possessory remedies, all exemption and homestead laws, and all
setoffs and counterclaims.

         If a claim is made upon the Agent or the Revolving Lenders for
repayment or recovery of any amount(s) or other value received by the Agent or
the Revolving Lenders, from any source, in payment of or on account of the
Obligations and the Agent or the Revolving Lenders pay or otherwise become
liable for such claim by reason of any judgment, decree or order or by reason of
any compromise or settlement of such claim, this Pledge Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect to the same extent as if such amount has never been
received by the Agent or the Revolving Lenders, notwithstanding any termination
hereof or the cancellation of any note or other agreement evidencing the
Obligations.
