         of all of Headquarter Newco's obligations under the Restructured Loan
         shall be guaranteed by Dart, pursuant to the terms of an unconditional
         and irrevocable guarantee to be executed and delivered to the Bank on
         the Effective Date.  Trak Auto Corporation and Crown Books
         Corporation, respectively, shall also execute and deliver guaranties
         limited in amount to that percentage of the Restructured Loan equal to
         the percentage of floor space of 75th Avenue Headquarters that each
         occupies pursuant to its respective sub-lease with Dart, as of the
         Effective Date.

                          (vi)  The Restructured Loan shall be secured by
         valid, perfected and first priority liens and security interests in
         and to the real property, improvements and





                                       12

         fixtures that are subject to the Warehouse Lease (except for the
         Encroached Portion), the Warehouse Lease (as modified pursuant to the
         Plan) and all other property, rights and interests of the Debtor,
         whether or not subject to the existing Security Interest of the Class
         One Creditor.  As additional security for the Restructured Loan the
         Class One Creditor shall have an assignment of and be entitled to
         receive directly form Dart, all amounts payable by Dart to
         Headquarters Newco under the Warehouse Lease as amended pursuant to
         the terms of the Plan and Headquarters Newco shall irrevocably direct
         Dart to remit to the Class One Creditor such portion of the monthly
         rental payments due under the Warehouse Lease (as amended pursuant  to
         the terms of the Plan) as is necessary to pay the monthly debt service
         to the Class One Creditor under the Restructured Loan.

                          (vii)  If the Fixed Rate Option has been elected,
         debt service shall be constant equal monthly payments of principal and
         interest in an amount sufficient to fully amortize the $11,000,000.00
         principal balance of the Restructured Loan in ten years after the
         Effective Date (after giving effect to the Special Prepayments,
         provided for in section 6.01(f) of the Plan as if they were both made
         on the Effective Date).  If the Adjustable Rate Option has been
         elected, debt service shall be monthly payments of interest at the
         then applicable rate plus monthly payments of principal in the amount
         of $91,666.67 until the Restructured Loan is paid in full.  Under
         either option elected, the first such debt service payment will be due
         on the first day of the month following the month in which  the
         Effective Date occurs, provided that the first payment shall be
         adjusted such that interest is paid in arrears.

                          (viii)  If the Fixed Rate Option has been elected,
         Headquarters Newco's right to prepay the Restructured Loan prior to
         the stated maturity (except for the Special Prepayments provided for
         in section 6.03(f) of the Plan) shall be subject to a yield
         maintenance provision contained in the Restructured Loan.  If the
         Adjustable Rate Option has been elected, then Headquarters Newco may
         prepay the Restructured Loan, or any part thereof, without penalty on
         any anniversary date of the Effective Date, at the expiration of the
         then applicable LIBOR interest contract.

                          (ix)  Such representations, warranties, covenants,
         conditions and defaults that are substantially similar in nature and
         scope to those in the existing Loan Documents and which are in a form
         and substance satisfactory to the Bank, Dart, Headquarters Newco and
         the Debtor.

                 (f)      On the Effective Date, Dart shall deposit
$5,000,000.00 with the Class One Creditor for the account of Dart.
$2,500,000.00 will be available to and will, on the Effective Date, fund the
first Special Prepayment (and upon such funding will be considered prepaid rent
by Dart under the Warehouse Lease).  The remaining $2,500,000.00 will be
available to and will fund the second Special Prepayment (and upon such funding
will be considered prepaid rent by Dart under the Warehouse Lease).  While said
funds are on deposit, they shall be invested for Dart's account,





                                       13
<PAGE>   14
as Dart may from time to time direct, in securities issued or backed by the
United States Government.  No entity or person other than Dart shall have any
rights in or to said funds while on deposit, provided, however, that the Class
One Creditor shall have its common law right of set off and a Security Interest
in said deposit and the proceeds thereof to secure the second Special
Prepayment which shall be due on August 15, 1997.

                 (g)      On the Effective Date, the Class One Creditor shall
release Robert M. Haft, Linda G. Haft, Ronald S. Haft and Herbert H. Haft,
respectively, as to any Claims arising out of the Class One Creditor's existing
Loan Documents, provided, that concurrently therewith, the Class One Creditor
receives from such person a release of any Claims such person may have against
the Class One Creditor arising out of the Class One Creditor's existing Loan
Documents.  The exchange of such mutual releases between the  Class One
Creditor and any one or more of such persons shall not be (i) dependent upon
the exchange of mutual releases between the Class One Creditor and any other
person, nor (ii) a precondition to the Confirmation of the Plan.

         6.02.   The Class Two Creditors shall be paid in full and final
satisfaction, discharge and release of their Claims as follows:

                 (a)  Each holder of an Allowed Class Two Claim, if any, shall
receive from cash on hand as of the Effective Date or, to the extent thereafter
needed, from contributions from Ronald S. Haft cash payments in an amount equal
to one hundred percent (100%) of its Allowed Claim, as follows:

                          (i)  Seventy-Fifth Avenue shall first satisfy all
         Allowed Administrative Expense Claims, Priority Claims and Tax Claims;
         and

                          (ii)  Thereafter, on a monthly basis following the
         Effective Date, the holders of Allowed Class Two Claims, if any, shall
         receive Pro Rata cash distributions, from the cash on hand as of the
         Effective Date or, to the extent thereafter needed, from contributions
         from Ronald S. Haft, until such time as they receive one hundred
         percent (100%) of such Allowed Claims.

         6.03.   The Class Three Creditor shall be treated in full and final
satisfaction of its Claims as follows:

                 (a)      On the Effective Date, Headquarters Newco and the
Class Three Creditor shall execute an amendment of the existing Warehouse
Lease, which amendment shall provide, inter alia, that the Class Three Creditor
pay monthly, as basic rent, a sum equal to the corresponding regularly
scheduled monthly installment of principal and interest due and payable from
time to time under the Restructured Loan.

                 (b)      The Class Three Creditor's rent obligations shall
include the Special Prepayments which the Class Three Creditor shall be
obligated to make as prepaid rent in compliance with the terms and conditions
of section 6.01(f) of the Plan.  The rent under the amended Warehouse Lease
shall automatically readjust to reflect (i) the adjusted monthly debt service
on the remaining outstanding balance of the Restructured Loan after each of the
Special Prepayments is made, including but not limited to the first Special
Prepayment which shall be paid on the Effective date, and (ii) any adjustments
in the interest rate if the Adjustable Rate Option is elected (as set forth in
section 6.01(d) of the Plan).  In the event of any other prepayments of
principal allowed under the Restructured Loan documents or consented to by the
Class One Creditor, such prepayments shall also result in corresponding
reductions of the Class Three Creditor's monthly payment of rent obligations
under the amended Warehouse Lease.

                 (c)      The Restructured Loan documents and the amended
Warehouse Lease shall provide that the Restructured Loan cannot be refinanced
or otherwise modified in any way without the prior written consent of the Class
Three Creditor.

                 (d)      The Wooded Lot Lease shall be terminated as of the
Effective Date.

                 (e) Apart from the treatment provided in this section 6.03 and
as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Class Three Creditor shall not receive
any distributions or payments in satisfaction of its Claims, and the Dart
Claims shall be deemed discharged upon the Confirmation of the Plan.

         6.04.   The Class Four Equity Security holders of Seventy-Fifth Avenue
shall be treated as follows:

                 (a)      The holder of any Equity Security of Seventy-Fifth
Avenue shall retain its Equity Security in the reorganized Debtor subject to
the terms and conditions of Article VII of the Plan.

         6.05.   The Class Five general partnership interests shall be treated
as follows:

                 (a)      The general partner shall retain his general
partnership interest in the reorganized Debtor subject to the terms and
conditions of Article VII of the Plan.

         6.06.   The Class Six Herbert Haft Assertions shall be treated as
follows:

                 (a)      The Class Six Herbert Haft Assertions shall be
treated as set forth in and subject to the terms and conditions of Article VII
of the Plan.

         6.07.   The Class Seven Indemnification Claimants shall be treated as
follows:

                 (a)      The Class Seven Indemnification Claimants shall be
treated as set forth in and subject to the terms and conditions of Article VII
of the Plan.

liability in respect thereof will be extinguished completely, whether reduced
to judgment or not, liquidated or unliquidated, contingent or fixed, asserted
or unasserted, matured or unmatured, disputed or undisputed, legal or
equitable, known or unknown, that arose from any agreement that the Debtor
entered into or obligations that the Debtor-in-Possession incurred before the

specified in sections 502(g), (h) and (i) of the Bankruptcy Code, whether or

<PAGE>   21
                 (a)      commencing or continuing in any manner or form the
enforcement, attachment, collection or recovery, by any manner or means, of any
pre-petition Claim, judgment, award, decree or order against the Debtor or its
current or former partners solely by virtue of their status as a partner
(except to the extent such provision against the Debtor's partners alters the
rights of the holder of a Security Interest, in which event this provision
shall not apply); of creating, perfecting or enforcing any encumbrance of any
kind against the Debtor; from exercising any discretionary and/or "call"
provisions of any loan documents allowing the acceleration of Claims; from
asserting any set off, right of subrogation, or recoupment of any kind against
any obligation due from the Debtor or from any act in any manner, in any place
whatsoever, that does not conform to or comply with the provisions of the Plan;
provided, however, that proceedings may be continued only for the purpose of
obtaining a liquidation of any asserted Claims against the Debtor on the
condition that the holder of any such judgment shall be enjoined from executing
against any of the assets of the Debtor-in-Possession, and further provided
that nothing contained herein shall preclude actions commenced in the Court to

from enforcing any remedy available to it pursuant to applicable law or its
Loan Documents based upon a post-Confirmation Date default by the Debtor under
the terms of the Secured Creditor's Loan Documents as modified by the terms and
conditions of the Plan, or (iii) any of the Other Family Members from asserting
and pursuing any rights, demands, debts, obligations





                                       21

or Claims of any nature whatsoever that they may have against the Debtor,
Ronald S. Haft , Herbert H. Haft or the Combined Entities.

Headquarters Newco, without the prior written consent of the Class One
Creditor, shall constitute an event of default under the Class One Creditor's
Loan Documents, as amended pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

         8.13.   Any deeds, leases, assignments, pledges, deeds of trust,
transfers of security, mortgages, modifications or other documents of
conveyance contemplated by this Plan, including but not limited to the

                           JURISDICTION OF THE COURT

         9.01.   Notwithstanding the Confirmation of the Plan, the Court will
retain jurisdiction until consummation of the Plan to ensure that the purposes
and intent of the Plan are carried out. The Court's jurisdiction shall be over
any and all disputes and litigation pending at the time of the Confirmation of
the Plan, any controversies that may arise thereafter, and any controversies
that may affect the Debtor-in-Possession's ability to effectuate the
consummation of the Plan.

         9.01.1  By way of illustration of the jurisdiction retained by the
Court, but not by way of limitation of the same, the Court shall retain
jurisdiction in this case, among other things, for the following purposes:

                 (a)      Classification and re-examination of any Claims of
any Creditors and the determinations of any objections which may be filed
thereto, provided, however, that the Debtor-in-Possession's failure to object
to any Claim which has been allowed for the purpose of voting shall not be
deemed a waiver of the Debtor-in-Possession's right to later object thereto;

                 (b)      The correction of any defect or omission in the Plan
and in the Confirmation of the Plan, as may be necessary to effectuate the

any Claim against the Debtor-in-Possession and to enter or enforce any order
requiring the filing of any such Claim before a particular date;

<PAGE>   24
                 (e)      To determine any and all pending applications for
rejection or disaffirmance of Executory Contracts or leases and to hear and
determine and, if need be, to liquidate any and all Claims arising therefrom;

                 (f)      To enter such orders as may be necessary to enforce
the injunctions provided in the Plan;

                 (g)      To determine proceedings pursuant to Section 510 of
the Bankruptcy Code to equitably subordinate any Claim or Class of Claims; and

                 (h)      All other matters which the Court must determine 
under the Plan.

Bankruptcy Court, (i) the holders of Security Interests may, after the
Effective Date, enforce any post Confirmation Date defaults in any court of
competent jurisdiction, including state or federal courts, as applicable, and
(ii) any of the Other Family Members may enforce any or all of their rights
arising out of the Indemnification Claims in any court of competent
jurisdiction, including, as applicable any state or federal court, and provided
further that jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to the
Indemnification Claims shall not be retained by the Court.

                                   ARTICLE X

                              EXECUTORY CONTRACTS

         10.01.  Subject to the deliveries, conveyances and agreements required
by the Plan, the Debtor-in-Possession reserves the right to apply to the Court
prior to the Confirmation of the Plan to assume or reject any Executory
Contract pursuant to 11 U.S.C.  Section 365.

         10.02.  On the Effective Date, the Debtor shall reject the Wooded Lot
Lease and the Wooded Lot Lease shall be terminated as of the Effective Date.
Except as otherwise set forth in the Plan, the Confirmation of the Plan shall
automatically constitute an assumption and assignment by the Debtor to
Headquarters Newco of all unexpired leases in which the Debtor-in-Possession is
a lessor which





                                       24
<PAGE>   25
are not otherwise provided for in the Plan which (i) have not been rejected
prior to that date, (ii) have not been assumed, in whole or in part, by prior
Order of Court or, (iii) which are not the subject of a pending application
seeking a rejection thereof.  The Confirmation of the Plan shall automatically
constitute an assumption and assignment on the Effective Date by the Debtor to
Headquarters Newco of the Warehouse Lease as amended pursuant to section 6.03
of the Plan.

         10.02.1  The CPI Management Agreement will terminate on the Effective
Date, without any penalty to any person or entity, including but not limited to
the Debtor or Headquarters Newco.  The Debtor shall, as necessary, provide such
notice to CPI as is required to effectuate said termination.

         10.03.  Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3002 (c)(4), and except as
otherwise ordered by the Court, proofs of Claim for Claims arising from the
rejection of an Executory Contract or unexpired lease shall be filed with the
Court no later than thirty (30) days after the later of the entry of a Final
Order approving such rejection and the Confirmation of the Plan, or such Claim
shall be forever barred.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

         11.01.  To the extent a Claim is a contingent or Disputed Claim, the
Debtor-in-Possession shall not be required to make the applicable disputed
portion of a payment to a holder of such contingent or Disputed Claim which
would otherwise be payable to said contingent or Disputed Claimant.  Until such
time as a contingent or Disputed Claim becomes fixed and absolute, such Claim
shall be treated as a contested Claim for purposes related to estimation,
allocations and distributions under the Plan and Disputed Claims shall not have
the ability to vote.

         11.02.  Nothing contained in section 11.01 of the Plan shall be
construed to prohibit the holder of a Disputed Claim or contingent Claim from
seeking an order of the Court authorizing the temporary estimation of such
Claim for voting purposes.  In the event that said Claim becomes an





                                       25
<PAGE>   26
Allowed Claim, then the Debtor-in-Possession shall thereafter cause to be paid
to the holder an amount which would have theretofore been paid to such holder
under the Plan had the Allowed Claim amount of such Claim been fixed and
determined as of the Effective Date in accordance with the terms of the Plan
and in the same manner as any other Creditor of the same Class.

         11.03.  Whenever any payment to be made under the Plan is due on a day
other than a business day, such payment will instead be made on the next
business day.

         11.04     No action taken by any of the  Other Family Members in the
Reorganization Case, including without limitation the filing of proofs of
claims, the filing of any pleadings, any statement made in connection with any
hearing, withdrawal of any objections to confirmation, the casting of any
ballot or withdrawal of any ballot cast in connection with the Plan shall in
any way impair or affect any Claims of any of the Other Family Members against
the Debtor, Ronald S. Haft, Herbert H. Haft or the Combined Entities, nor shall
any such action in any way constitute or be deemed to constitute any grounds
for, or give rise to, any defense to, offset of, or reduction in liability of
the Debtor, Ronald S. Haft, Herbert H. Haft, or the Combined Entities to the
Other Family Members.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

         12.01.  The adoption of the amended Partnership Agreement in
accordance with Article VII of the Plan shall be deemed to have occurred and be
effective on the Effective Date, without any further requirement of action by
the Equity Security holders.  Effective as of the Effective Date Ronald S.
Haft, the general partner of the Debtor, shall, without the need for any
further order of the Court, have an irrevocable power of attorney to execute
said amendment on behalf of all limited partners of the Debtor and to execute
all documents needed to effectuate the Conveyance to Headquarters Newco
described in section 6.01(c) of the Plan.





                                       26
<PAGE>   27
         12.02.  All applications for payment of Administrative Expense Claims
must be filed within forty-five (45) days of the Effective Date.  Any such
Claim that is not filed by that date shall be forever barred and discharged.

         12.03.  As soon as possible, but in no event more than two (2) months
after the Effective Date, any party in interest may file and prosecute
objections to Claims and equity interests, which objections shall be filed with
the Bankruptcy Court, provided however, the Class One Claim and the Class Three
Claim shall for all purposes be allowed as provided in the Plan.

         12.04.  In order to confirm the Plan, and to the extent necessary, the
Debtor invokes the entitlement of Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, such
that, as long as the Plan does not discriminate unfairly and is fair and
equitable with respect to any Class of Claims or interests that are impaired
under and have not accepted the Plan, the Plan may be confirmed by the Court.

         12.05.  On or before the tenth (10th) day preceding the commencement
of the hearing on the Confirmation of the Plan, the Debtor and/or any party in
interest shall file with the Court such agreements and other documents as may
be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and further evidence the terms and
conditions of the Plan, including the Class One Creditor's proposed principal
loan documents evidencing the Restructured Loan.

         12.06.  Should any provision of this Plan be determined to be invalid,
void or unenforceable, such determination shall not in any way limit or affect
the enforceability and operative effect of any or all other provisions of the
Plan and the Court shall, with the consent of the Proponents, the Class One
Creditor, the Class Three Creditor and the Other Family Members, have the power
to alter and interpret such term or provision to make it valid or enforceable
to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with the original purpose of the
term or provision held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, and such term or
provision shall then be applicable as altered or interpreted. Notwithstanding
any such holding, alteration or interpretation, the remainder of the terms and





                                       27
<PAGE>   28
provisions of the Plan shall remain in full force and effect and in no way
shall be affected, impaired or invalidated by such holding, alteration or
interpretation.  The Confirmation of the Plan shall constitute a judicial
determination and shall provide that each term and provision of the Plan, as it
may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is valid
and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

         12.07.  All fees payable pursuant to Chapter 123 of Title 28, United
States Code, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court on the Confirmation Date,
shall be payable on the Effective Date.  Any statutory fees accruing after the
Confirmation of the Plan shall constitute Administrative Expenses and be paid
in accordance with Article II of the Plan.

         12.08.  Until the Effective Date, all creditors and
parties-in-interests' rights to make any motion or seek any other relief
whatsoever including, but not limited to, moving for relief from the automatic
stay, appointment of a trustee or conversion or dismissal of the Debtor's
Chapter 11 case (including, without limitation, on the grounds of any failure
to consummate the Plan or the Plan to become effective) shall not be impaired
or restricted by the terms of the Plan, the Confirmation of the Plan, or by
virtue of  having voted for the Plan.  Following the Effective Date, the rights
of the parties shall be governed by the Plan and applicable law.

         12.09.  Provided that it does not delay the implementation of the
Plan, nor diminish the value of the Plan to Dart, Trak Auto or Headquarters
Newco, Dart, Trak Auto and Headquarters Newco agree to use reasonable efforts
to cooperate with the Debtor, without cost to Dart, Trak Auto or Bridgeview
Newco, in the event the Debtor elects to structure the conveyance(s) provided
in Section 6.01 of the Plan in a tax-free manner pursuant to section 1031 of
the Internal Revenue Code.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                           EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PLAN

         13.01.  As a condition precedent to the effectiveness and the
Effective Date of the Plan, the following events shall have first occurred:

                 (a)      The Confirmation of the Plan has become a Final
Order;

                 (b)      All documents, instruments and agreements, in form
and substance satisfactory to the Proponents, provided for under or necessary
to implement the Plan shall have been executed and delivered by the parties
thereto, unless such execution or delivery shall have been waived by the
parties entitled under such documents, instruments or agreements to waive such
execution or delivery;

                 (c)      Dart and Ronald S. Haft have executed an amendment to
the terms of the Dart/RSH Settlement Agreement, in a form mutually satisfactory
to them;

                 (d)      Dart shall have deposited with the Class One Creditor
$5,000,000.00 for the account of Dart to be used to fund the Special
Prepayments; and

                 (e)      Headquarters Newco shall have delivered to the Bank
(i) a certified copy of Headquarter Newco's Operating Agreement, (ii) a
certified resolution of Headquarter Newco and its corporate members, (iii) an
incumbency certificate for the managing member of Headquarters Newco and (iv)
an opinion of Headquarters Newco's counsel as to the due authorization of
Headquarters Newco's execution of the amended Loan Documents and as to their
validity, binding effect and enforceability, subject to the usual bankruptcy
and insolvency qualifications.

                 (f)      Dart and the Other Family Members have entered into
definitive settlement agreements, by and among them, in a form mutually
acceptable to them, dealing with all matters in dispute between them and have

                                       29
<PAGE>   30
         13.02.  Any of the conditions precedent to the effectiveness and the
Effective Date of the Plan may be waived by the unanimous consent of the
Proponents, Dart, the Other Family Members and the Class One Creditor.

         13.03.  In the event that (i) Dart, Trak Auto, Ronald S. Haft and the
Other Family Members have  not entered into definitive settlement agreements,
by and among them, by May 20, 1997, and/or (ii) have not effected the closing
of such settlement agreements by August 15, 1997, then in either such event the
Plan shall be deemed null and void and of no further force and effect at the
election of the Class One Creditor, exercised by written notice to the Debtor,
the Court and all parties in interest.

         13.04.  If Dart has not previously done so, promptly upon the
execution of any definitive settlement agreement among Dart, Trak Auto Robert
M. Haft, Linda G. Haft and Gloria G. Haft dealing with matters in dispute
between them, Dart and Trak Auto agree to give notice to the other parties to
the Standstill Order described in Section 8.11 of the Plan, as to the
Confirmation of the Plan, the pendency of such definitive settlement agreement,
and such other matters, if any, as Dart may in its discretion deem appropriate.

                           ORDER CONFIRMING DEBTOR'S
                     FOURTH REVISED PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

         A Confirmation hearing having been held on April 4, 1997 to consider
the Debtor's Third Amended Plan of Reorganization, and upon the motion of all
parties-in-interest the Court having granted leave to the Debtor to file
revisions to said plan, and the Debtor having filed the Debtor's Revised Third
Amended Plan of Reorganization on May 2, 1997 and mailed a copy of the Revised
Third Amended Plan to creditors, equity security holders and other
parties-in-interest, and the Court having entered an Order on June 12, 1997
Confirming the Debtor's Revised Third Amended Plan of Reorganization (the
"First Confirmation Order"), and the Debtor thereafter having filed a
Stipulation and Consent Order Providing for Modification of Debtor's Third
Revised Amended Plan of Reorganization and a Fourth Revised Plan of
Reorganization (the "Plan") on October 28, 1997 and, after proper notice, this
Court has determined:

         1.      The Plan complies with the applicable provisions of Chapter 11
of the Bankruptcy Code;
         
<PAGE>   32
         2.      The Debtor has complied with the applicable provisions of
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code;

         3.      The Plan has been proposed in good faith and not by any means
forbidden by law;

         4.      Any payment made or promised by the Debtor for services or for
costs and expenses incurred in connection with the case, or in connection with
the Plan and incident to the case, has been disclosed to the Court and is
reasonable or is subject to the approval of the Court;

         5.      The Debtor has disclosed the identity and affiliations of each
individual proposed to serve, after confirmation of the Plan, as a director,
officer or voting trustee of the Debtor, or a successor of the Debtor under the
Plan and the continuance of such individuals is consistent with the interests
of creditors, equity security holders and public policy, and the proponents of
the Plan have disclosed the identity of any insider that will be employed or
retained by the reorganized Debtor and the nature of any compensation for such
insider;

         6.      Each holder of a claim or interest has accepted the Plan, or
will receive or retain under the Plan property of a value, as of the Effective
Date of the Plan, that is not less than such holder would receive or retain if
the Debtor were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on such date;

         7.      With respect to each class of claims or interests, such class
has accepted the Plan or is not impaired under the Plan;

         8.      Except to the extent that the holder of a particular claim has
agreed to a different treatment of such claim, the Plan provides that:





                                      2
<PAGE>   33
                 (a)      On the Effective Date of the Plan, each holder of a
         claim of a kind specified in Section 507(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code
         will receive on account of such claim cash equal to the allowed amount
         of the claim; and

                 (b)      On the Effective Date of the Plan, each holder of a
         claim of a kind specified in Section 507(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code
         will receive on account of such claim deferred cash payments, over a
         period not exceeding six years after the date of the assessment of the
         claim, of a value, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, equal to the
         allowed amount of the claim;

         9.      At least one class of impaired claims has actually accepted
the Plan, determined without including any acceptance of the Plan by any
insider;

         10.     All fees payable pursuant to Section 1930 have been paid or
shall be paid on the Effective Date of the Plan;

         11.     Confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the
liquidation or the need for further reorganization of the Debtor; and

         12.     It is in the best interests of the estate that the Plan be 
confirmed.

         This Court, therefore, finds that the Plan complies with the
requirements of 11 U.S.C. Section 1129.  Accordingly, it is this 30th day
of October, 1997,

                 ORDERED that the First Confirmation Order is hereby vacated,
and deemed null and void and of no further force or effect; and it is further

                 ORDERED that the Debtor's Fourth Revised Plan of
Reorganization be, and is hereby, CONFIRMED; and it is further

                 ORDERED that this Court shall retain jurisdiction over this
case as set forth in Article IX of  the Plan; and it is further

                 ORDERED any deeds, leases, assignments, pledges, deeds of
trust, transfers of security, mortgages, modifications or other documents of
conveyance contemplated by this Plan,





                                       3
<PAGE>   34
including, but not limited to, the subdivision and conveyance of the Encroached
Portion, as well as the conveyance to Headquarters Newco, whether made before
or after the Confirmation of the Plan, shall be deemed instruments of transfer
under a plan pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 1146 and, as a result, may not be
taxed under any law imposing a stamp or similar tax; and it is further

                 ORDERED that this Order shall be deemed null and void and of
no further force and effect, in the event that the Class One Creditor exercises
the election specified in Section 13.03 of the Plan prior to the Effective
Date; and it is further

                 ORDERED that the Debtor shall mail a copy of this Order to all
creditors and parties-in-interest and shall thereafter certify such mailing.
