Life Insurance Company and (ii) a Note Agreement, dated as of October 10, 1995,
with The Prudential Insurance Company of America (such agreements, the "Note

has agreed to grant to the Agent on behalf of the Holders of Guaranteed
Obligations the security interest contemplated by this Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth herein and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms
defined in the Credit Agreements are used herein as therein defined, and the

the security interest in the Collateral granted hereby; (ii) for the execution,
delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Grantor; or (iii) for the

         (e) The Pledged Debt issued by any Affiliate of the Grantor, and to the
best of the Grantor's knowledge, all other Pledged Debt, has been duly
authorized, issued and delivered, and is the legal, valid, binding and
enforceable obligation of the respective issuer thereof.

         SECTION 6. Perfection and Maintenance of Security Interests and Liens.

interests in and Liens on and against the Collateral granted or purported to be
granted hereby or to enable the Agent to exercise its rights and remedies
hereunder with respect to any Collateral, including, without limitation, (i)

Agent, (iii) at the reasonable direction of Agent, delivering to the Agent
warehouse receipts covering that portion of the Collateral, if any, located in
warehouses and for which warehouse receipts are issued, (iv) after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, transferring
Inventory and Equipment to warehouses designated by the Agent or taking such
other steps as are reasonably deemed necessary by the Agent to maintain the
Agent's control of the Inventory and Equipment, (v) upon the reasonable request
of the Agent, marking conspicuously each document, contract, chattel paper and
all records pertaining to the Collateral with a legend, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Agent, indicating that such document, contract, chattel
paper, or other record pertaining to the Collateral is subject to the security
interest granted hereby, (vi) obtaining waivers of Liens and access agreements
in substantially the following forms: (a) EXHIBIT A-1 hereto (or such other form
as may be agreed to by the Agent) from landlords with respect to all leases
executed after the date hereof, (b) EXHIBIT A-2 hereto (or such other form as
may be agreed to by the Agent) from mortgagees with respect to all leases
executed after the date hereof and (3) EXHIBIT B hereto (or such other form as
may be agreed to by the Agent) from the appropriate Person with respect to all
arrangements pursuant to which Inventory will be stored in public warehouse
facilities after the date hereof, and (vii) executing and delivering all further
instruments and documents, and taking all further action, as the Agent may
reasonably request.

         SECTION 7. Financing Statements. To the extent permitted by applicable
law, the Grantor hereby authorizes the Agent to file one or more financing or
continuation statements and amendments thereto, disclosing the security interest
granted to the Agent under this Agreement without the Grantor's signature
appearing thereon, and the Agent agrees to notify the Grantor when such a filing
has been made. The Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic, or
other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement is sufficient
as a financing statement. If any Inventory or Equipment is in the possession or
control of any warehouseman or the Grantor's agents or processors, the Grantor
shall, upon the Agent's request, notify such warehouseman, agent or processor of
the Agent's security interest in such Inventory and Equipment and, upon the
Agent's request, instruct them to hold all such Inventory or Equipment for the
Agent's account and subject to the Agent's instructions.

         SECTION 8. Filing Costs. The Grantor shall pay the costs of, or
incidental to, all recordings or filings of all financing statements, including,
without limitation, any filing expenses incurred by the Agent pursuant to
Section 7.

         SECTION 9. Schedule of Collateral. The Grantor shall furnish to the
Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and
describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the
Collateral as the Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

         (b) Shall in any suit, proceeding or action brought by the Agent under
any Account comprising part of the Collateral, the Grantor will save, indemnify
and keep each of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations harmless from and against
all expenses, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the obligor
thereunder, arising out of a breach by the Grantor of any obligation or arising
out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in
favor of such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations from the Grantor, and all such
obligations of the Grantor shall be and shall remain enforceable against and

the Agent that from and after the date of this Agreement and until termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Section 25, that:

         (a) Promptly following, but not later than ninety (90) days after, the
close of each fiscal year the Grantor will furnish to the Agent a report
certified to be true and correct by the Grantor containing a list of each of the
Grantor's leased premises; the name or names of all owners; rentals being paid;
and whether the Grantor has obtained waivers of Liens and access agreements from

         (b) The Grantor agrees that, after the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, the Agent may, but need not, make any
payment or perform any act hereinbefore required of the Grantor with respect to
the Grantor's leased premises in any form and manner deemed expedient. All money
paid for any of the purposes herein authorized and all other moneys advanced by
the Agent to protect the lien hereof shall be additional Guaranteed Obligations
secured hereby and shall become immediately due and payable without notice and
shall bear interest thereon at the default interest rate as provided in the
Credit Agreement until paid to the Agent in full.

         (c) The Grantor agrees that it will not amend any lease in a manner
that has a material adverse affect on the interests of the Holders of Guaranteed
Obligations without the Agent's prior written consent.

         SECTION 13. General Covenants. The Grantor covenants and agrees with
the Agent that from and after the date of this Agreement and until termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Section 25, the Grantor shall:

         (a) Keep and maintain at the Grantor's own cost and expense
satisfactory and complete records of the Grantor's Collateral in a manner
consistent with the Grantor's current business practice, including, without
limitation, a record of all payments received and all credits granted with
respect to such Collateral. The Grantor shall, for the Agent's further security,
deliver and turn over to the Agent or the Agent's designated representatives at
any time following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, any such books and records (including, without limitation, any and all
computer tapes, programs and source and


                                       9
<PAGE>


object codes relating to such Collateral in which the Grantor has an interest or
any part or parts thereof); and

         (b) The Grantor will not create, permit or suffer to exist, and will
defend the Collateral against, and take such other action as is necessary to
remove, any Lien on such Collateral other than Liens permitted as of the date
hereof under the Credit Agreements and the Note Agreements, and will defend the
right, title and interest of the Agent in and to the Grantor's rights to such
Collateral, including, without limitation, the proceeds and products thereof,
against the claims and demands of all Persons whatsoever.

         SECTION 14. The Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. The Grantor hereby
irrevocably appoints the Agent as the Grantor's attorney-in-fact, with full
authority in the place and stead of the Grantor and in the name of the Grantor
or otherwise, following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event
of Default, in the Agent's discretion, to take any action and to execute any
instrument which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to:

                  (i) obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the
         Agent or any Holders of Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to the Credit
         Agreements and the Note Agreements;

                  (ii) ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise,
         receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become
         due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

                  (iii) receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other
         instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (i)
         or (ii) above; and

                  (iv) file any claims or take any action or institute any
         proceedings which the Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the
         collection of any of the Collateral, or otherwise to enforce the rights
         of the Agent with respect to any of the Collateral;

In addition, the Agent may at any time:

                  (i) obtain access to records maintained for the Grantor by
         computer services companies and other service companies or bureaus;

                  (ii) send requests under the Grantor's, the Agent's or a
         fictitious name to the Grantor's customers or account debtors for
         verification of Accounts provided that the Agent gives the Grantor
         notice prior to initiating any such verifications; and

                  (iii) do all other things reasonably necessary to carry out
         this Agreement.

         SECTION 15. The Agent May Perform. If the Grantor fails to perform any
agreement contained herein, in the Guarantees, in the Credit Agreements or in
the Note Agreements, the Agent may, upon three days' prior notice to the
Grantor, perform, or cause


                                       10
<PAGE>


performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Agent incurred in
connection therewith shall be payable by the Grantor under Section 22.

         SECTION 16. The Agent's Duties. The powers conferred on the Agent
hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not
impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody
of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually
received by it hereunder, the Agent shall not have any duty as to any
Collateral. The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the
custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral
is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Agent accords its
own property, it being understood that the Agent shall be under no obligation to
take any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other
rights pertaining to any Collateral, but may do so at its option, and all
reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be for the sole
account of the Grantor and shall be added to the Guaranteed Obligations.

         SECTION 17. Remedies. (a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing:

                  (i) The Agent shall have, in addition to other rights and
         remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the
         rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC
         (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and
         further, the Agent may, without notice, demand or legal process of any
         kind (except as may be required by law), all of which the Grantor
         waives, at any time or times, (x) enter the Grantor's owned or leased
         premises where Collateral is located and take physical possession of
         the Collateral and maintain such possession on the Grantor's owned or
         leased premises, at no cost to the Agent or any of the Holders of
         Guaranteed Obligations, or remove the Collateral, or any part thereof,
         to such other place(s) as the Agent may desire, (y) require the Grantor
         to, and the Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon
         request of the Agent forthwith, assemble all or any part of the
         Collateral as directed by the Agent and make it available to the Agent
         at a place to be designated by the Agent which is reasonably convenient
         to the Agent and (z) without notice except as specified below, sell,
         lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise
         dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof at public or private
         sale, at any exchange, broker's board or at any of the offices of the
         Agent or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and
         upon such other terms as the Agent may deem commercially reasonable.
         The Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required
         by law, at least ten (10) days' notice to the Grantor of the time and
         place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to
         be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Agent shall not
         be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of
         sale having been given. The Agent may adjourn any public or private
         sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed
         therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the
         time and place to which it was so adjourned;

                  (ii) The Agent shall apply all cash proceeds received by the
         Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization
         upon all or any part of the Collateral (after payment of any amounts
         payable to the Agent pursuant to Section 22), for the benefit of the
         Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, against all or any part of the
         Guaranteed Obligations in such order as may be required by the
         Collateral Sharing Agreement, or, to the extent not specified therein,
         as is determined by the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, and, with
         respect to the application of such proceeds subsequent to the
         satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Collateral Sharing
         Agreement or as agreed to by the Holders of


                                       11
<PAGE>

         Guaranteed Obligations, as applicable, in such order as may be required
         under each Guarantee with respect to amounts remitted to the entity in
         whose favor such Guarantee runs. Any surplus of such cash or cash
         proceeds held by the Agent and remaining after payment in full of all
         the Guaranteed Obligations shall be paid over to the Grantor or to
         whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus;

         (b) The Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands against the
Agent arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of any of the
Collateral or any part or parts thereof, except any such claims, damages and
awards arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or
any of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, as the case may be, as determined
in a final non-appealed judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

         (c) The rights and remedies provided under this Agreement are
cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of
any rights and remedies provided by law or equity.

         SECTION 18. Exercise of Remedies. In connection with the exercise of
its remedies pursuant to Section 17, the Agent may, (i) exchange, enforce, waive
or release any portion of the Collateral and any other security for the
Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) apply such Collateral or security and direct the
order or manner of sale thereof as the Agent may, from time to time, determine;
and (iii) settle, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate any such Collateral
or security in any manner following the occurrence and during the continuation
of an Event of Default, without affecting or impairing the Agent's right to take
any other further action with respect to any Collateral or security or any part
thereof.

         SECTION 19. License. The Agent is hereby granted a license or other
right to use, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, without charge, (a) the Grantor's labels, patents, copyrights, trade
secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, customer lists and advertising
matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral,
in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral,
provided that the Agent uses quality standards at least substantially equivalent
to those of the Grantor for the manufacture, advertising, sale and distribution
of the Grantor's products and services and (b) the Grantor's rights under all
licenses.

         SECTION 20. Injunctive Relief. The Grantor recognizes that in the event
the Grantor fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or
liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate
relief to the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations; therefore, the Grantor agrees
that the Agent shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in
any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

         SECTION 21. Interpretation and Inconsistencies; Merger. (a) The rights
and duties created by this Agreement shall, in all cases, be interpreted
consistently with, and shall be in addition to (and not in lieu of), the rights
and duties created by the Guarantees, the Collateral Sharing Agreement, and the
other Loan Documents. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be
inconsistent with any provision of any other Loan Document, such provision of
the other Loan Document shall govern.


                                       12
<PAGE>


         (b) Except as provided in subsection (a) above, this Agreement
represents the final and entire agreement of the Grantor and the Agent with
respect to the matters contained herein.

         SECTION 22. Expenses. The Grantor will upon demand pay to the Agent the
amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and
disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents, as provided in the
Credit Agreements, the Note Agreements, and/or the Collateral Sharing Agreement.

         SECTION 23. Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement nor consent to any departure by the Grantor herefrom shall in any
event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Agent
(in accordance with the Collateral Sharing Agreement) and the Grantor, and then
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which given.

         SECTION 24. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be delivered in the manner set forth in Section 8.2 of each of
the Credit Agreements.

         SECTION 25. Continuing Security Interest; Termination. (a) Except as
provided in Section 25(b), this Agreement shall create a continuing security
interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until
the later of the payment or satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations
(other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the termination of each of the
Guarantees, (ii) be binding upon the Grantor, its successors and assigns and
(iii) except to the extent that the rights of any transferor or assignor are
limited by the terms of each of the Guarantees, inure, together with the rights
and remedies of the Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Agent and any of the
Holders of Guaranteed Obligations. Nothing set forth herein or in any other Loan
Document is intended or shall be construed to give any other Person any right,
remedy or claim under, to or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or any Collateral. The Grantor's successors and assigns shall include,
without limitation, a receiver, trustee or debtor-in-possession thereof or
therefor.

         (b) The security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights
to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantor on the earlier of the date on
which (i) the Agent shall have received from each Holder of Guaranteed
Obligations written notice that all "Obligations" (as defined in the Collateral
Sharing Agreement) owing to such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations have been paid
in full or (ii) the Agent shall have received written notice from the Holders of
Guaranteed Obligations directing the Agent to release the Collateral and stating
that the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations have consented to such release under
the terms of the Credit Agreements, the Note Agreements and the Guarantees
provided, that no such termination shall occur prior to the payment in full of
all of the Agent's "Expenses" (as defined in the Collateral Sharing Agreement).
Upon the termination of the security interest, the Grantor shall be entitled to
the prompt return, upon its request and at its expense, of such of the
Collateral held by the Agent as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied
pursuant to the terms hereof and the Agent will, at the Grantor's expense,
promptly execute and deliver to the Grantor such other documents as the Grantor
shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. In connection with any
sales of assets permitted under the Credit Agreements and the Note Agreements,
the


                                       13
<PAGE>


Agent will promptly release and terminate the liens and security interests
granted under this Agreement with respect to such assets.

         SECTION 26. Severability. Any provision in this Agreement that is held
to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to
that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting
the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability,
or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the
provisions of this Agreement are declared to be severable.

         SECTION 27. GOVERNING LAW. ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THE GRANTOR AND THE
AGENT ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE
RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THEM IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT, AND
WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE RESOLVED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS (INCLUDING 735 ILCS SECTION 105/5-1 ET SEQ. BUT
OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES) OF THE STATE OF
ILLINOIS.

         SECTION 28. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS; JURY TRIAL.

                          Guarantor Security Agreement


                           Form of Landlord Agreement



Bank One, NA
1 Bank One Plaza
Chicago, IL 60670
Attention: Jenny Gilpin


Ladies and Gentlemen:

         Ag-Chem Equipment Canada, Ltd., ("Grantor"), the lessee under that
certain lease dated _________________ between the Grantor, and the undersigned,
covering certain premises owned by the undersigned and located at ______________
(the "Premises") more fully described in the lease attached hereto as Exhibit A
(the "Lease"). Grantor has certain of its assets located on the Premises.

         Grantor has entered into certain financing arrangements with a group of
lenders ("Lenders") including Bank One, NA, as contractual representative for
the Lenders (the "Agent") and the Agent and the Lenders require, among other
things, that Grantor grant liens in favor of the Agent for the benefit of itself
and the Lenders on all of Grantor's property located on the Premises
("Collateral").

         To induce the Agent and the Lenders (together with their respective
agents, successors and assigns) to continue said financing arrangements, and for
other good and valuable consideration, the undersigned hereby agrees that:

                  (i) it will not assert against any of Grantor's assets any
         statutory or possessory liens, including, without limitation, rights of
         levy or distraint for rent, all of which it hereby waives;

                  (ii) none of the Collateral located on the Premises shall be
         deemed to be fixtures;

                  (iii) if Grantor defaults on its obligations to the Agent or
         any Lender and, as a result, the Agent undertakes to enforce its
         security interest in the Collateral, the undersigned will cooperate
         with the Agent in its efforts to assemble all of the Collateral located
         on the Premises, will permit the Agent to remain on the Premises for
         ninety (90) days after the Agent gives the undersigned notice of
         default, provided the Agent pays the rental payments due under the
         Lease for the period of time the Agent uses the Premises, or, at the
         Agent's option, to remove the Collateral from the Premises within a
         reasonable time, not to exceed ninety (90) days after the Agent gives
         the undersigned notice of default, provided the Agent pays the rental
         payments due under the Lease for the period

<PAGE>


         of time the Agent uses the Premises, and will not hinder the Agent's
         actions in enforcing its liens on the Collateral;

                  [it will allow the Agent thirty (30) days from the Agent's
         receipt of notice in which to cure or cause Grantor to cure any
         defaults on Grantor's lease obligations to the undersigned; provided if
         such default cannot reasonably be cured within the thirty (30) day
         period, and provided the Agent is diligently pursuing a cure, then the
         Agent shall have a reasonable period to cure such default;]

                  [(iv) if, for any reason whatsoever, the undersigned either
         deems itself entitled to redeem or to take possession of the Premises
         during the term of Grantor's lease or intends to sell or otherwise
         transfer all or any part of its interest in the Premises, the
         undersigned will notify the Agent five (5) days before taking such
         action;]

                  [(v) the undersigned shall accept performance by the Agent of
         the Grantor's obligations under the Lease as though the same had been
         performed by the holder of the Grantor's interest therein at the time
         of such performance. Upon the cure of any such default, any notice

                           Form of Mortgagee Agreement



Bank One, NA
1 Bank One Plaza
Chicago, IL 60670
Attention: Jenny Gilpin

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         Ag-Chem Equipment Canada, Ltd.. ("Grantor"), is the lessee under that
certain lease dated _____________ between the Grantor, and ____________________
(the "Landlord[s]"), covering certain premises located at _________________ (the
"Premises") as more fully described on Exhibit A(1) attached hereto (the
"Lease"). The undersigned is the mortgagee under a mortgage between the
Landlord[s] and the undersigned covering the Premises (the "Mortgage"). The
undersigned is the sole mortgagee of the Premises. Grantor has certain of its
assets located on the Premises.

         Grantor has entered into certain financing arrangements with a group of
lenders ("Lenders") including Bank One, NA, as contractual representative for
the Lenders (the "Agent") and the Agent and the Lenders require, among other
things, that Grantor grant liens in favor of the Agent for the benefit of itself
and the Lenders on all of Grantor's property located on the Premises
("Collateral").

         By its signature below, the undersigned agrees that:

                  (i) it will not assert against any of the Collateral any
         statutory or possessory liens, including, without limitation, rights of
         levy or distraint for rent, all of which it hereby waives;

                  (ii) none of the Collateral located on the Premises shall be
         deemed to be fixtures;

                  [(iii) it will allow the Agent thirty (30) days from the
         Agent's receipt of notice in which to cure or cause Grantor to cure any
         such defaults on its mortgage obligations; provided if such default
         cannot reasonably be cured within the thirty

         (30) day period, and provided the Agent is diligently pursuing a cure,
         then the Agent shall have a reasonable period to cure such default;]

                  [(iv) if, for any reason whatsoever, the undersigned either
         deems itself entitled to take possession of the Premises during the
         term of the Mortgage or intends to sell or otherwise transfer all or
         any part of its interest in the Premises, the undersigned will notify
         the Agent five (5) days before taking such action;]

                  (v) if Grantor defaults on its obligations to the Agent or any
         Lender and, as a result, the Agent undertakes to enforce its security
         interest in the Collateral, the undersigned will cooperate with the
         Agent in its efforts to assemble all of the Collateral located on the
         Premises, will permit the Agent to remain on the Premises for ninety
         (90) days after the Agent gives the undersigned notice of default,
         provided the Agent pays the Lease payments to the Landlord[s] due under
         the Lease for the period of time the Agent uses the Premises, or, at
         the Agent's option, to remove the Collateral from the Premises within a
         reasonable time, not to exceed ninety (90) days after the Agent gives
         the undersigned notice of default, provided the Agent pays the rental
         payments to the Landlord[s] due under the Lease for the period of time
         the Agent uses the Premises, and will not hinder the Agent's actions in
         enforcing its liens on the Collateral; and

         Any notice(s) required or desired to be given hereunder shall be
directed to the party to be notified at the address stated herein.

         The agreements contained herein shall continue in force until all of
Grantor's obligations and liabilities to the Agent and the Lenders are paid and
satisfied in full and all financing arrangements among the Agent, the Lenders
and Grantor have been terminated.

         The undersigned will notify all successor owners, transferees,
purchasers and mortgagees of the existence of this waiver. The agreements
contained herein may not be modified or terminated orally and shall be binding
upon the successors, assigns and personal representatives of the undersigned,
upon any successor owner or transferee of the Premises, and upon any purchasers,
including any mortgagee, from the undersigned.

         [The undersigned consents to the granting of the Leasehold Mortgage to
the Agent and to the liens, security interests and encumbrances created by and
resulting from the Leasehold Mortgage or other documents collateral thereto in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.]

         The undersigned agrees that nothing contained in this waiver shall be
construed as an assumption by the agent or any of the other lenders of any
obligations of the landlord contained in the mortgage.

         Executed and delivered this ____ day of ___________, at ______________.

                  THIS WAIVER SHALL NOT IMPAIR OR OTHERWISE AFFECT GRANTOR'S
                  OBLIGATIONS TO PAY RENT AND ANY OTHER SUMS

store certain of its merchandise, inventory, or other of its personal property
at premises located at _______________ (the "Premises") owned or leased by the
undersigned.

         Grantor has entered into certain financing arrangements with a group of
lenders (the "Lenders") including Bank One, NA (the "Agent") and, as a condition
to continuing the loans and other financial accommodations of the Lenders to
Grantor, the Agent and the Lenders require, among other things, that Grantor
grant liens in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders
on all of Grantor's property located on the Premises ("Collateral").

         To induce the Agent and the Lenders (together with their respective
agents, successors and assigns) to continue said financing arrangements, and for
other good and valuable consideration, the undersigned hereby agrees that:

                  (i) it will not assert against any of Grantor's assets any
         statutory or possessory liens, including, without limitation, rights of
         levy or distraint for rent, all of which it hereby waives;

                  (ii) the Collateral shall be identifiable as being owned by
         Grantor and kept reasonably separate and distinct from other property
         in the possession of the undersigned;

                  (iii) none of the Collateral located on the Premises shall be
         deemed to be fixtures; and

                  (iv) if Grantor defaults on its obligations to the Lenders or
         the Agent and, as a result, the Agent undertakes to enforce its

         with the Agent in its efforts to assemble all of the Collateral located
         on the Premises, (b) will permit the Agent to either remain on the
         Premises for ninety (90) days after the Agent gives the undersigned
         notice of default or, at the Agent's option, to remove the Collateral
         from the Premises within a reasonable time, not to exceed ninety

<PAGE>


         (90) days after the Agent gives the undersigned notice of default,
         provided in either instance that the Agent leaves the Premises in the
         same condition as existed immediately prior to such ninety (90) day
         period, and the Agent shall indemnify the undersigned for any damages
         arising solely out of its occupancy of the Premises, and (c) will not
         hinder the Agent's actions in enforcing its liens on the Collateral.

         Any notice(s) required or desired to be given hereunder shall be
directed to the party to be notified at the address stated herein.

         The agreements contained herein shall continue in force until all of
