                  NOW, THEREFORE, in order to secure the prompt payment of all
past, present, and future indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations of the
Pledgor to the Lender of any nature whatsoever in connection with the Note,
together with all obligations of the Pledgor to the Lender hereunder, however
and wherever created, arising, or evidenced, whether direct or indirect,

managed by Pledgor and all rights to deposits from such residents and insurance
benefits due to Pledgor with respect to such residents (excluding any escrow
accounts maintained on behalf of such residents), and (iii) all proceeds of the
foregoing (collectively, the "Accounts").

The term "Collateral" as used herein means each and all of the items of
Collateral described above, and the term "proceeds" as used herein includes,
without limitation, the proceeds of all insurance policies covering all or any
part of such items of Collateral.

                  2. Title to Collateral. Subject to Section 20 hereof, the
Pledgor warrants and represents that (i) it is the lawful owner of the
Collateral, and has the full right, power, and authority to convey, transfer,
and grant the security title and security interest in the Collateral granted
herein to the Lender; (ii) all licenses relating to the Collateral are fully
paid and freely assignable to Lender, and, upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default (as defined herein) and foreclosure by the Lender, the Lender shall have
all rights of the Pledgor to any Collateral licensed to the Pledgor or licensed
by the Pledgor; (iii) the Collateral is not, and so long as this Agreement is in
effect will not be, subject to any liens, claims, security interests,
encumbrances, taxes, or assessments, however described or denominated, except
for liens, claims, security interests and encumbrances in favor of the Lender
and except as set forth on Exhibit "A" hereto; (iv) no financing statement,
mortgage, notice of lien, deed of trust, deed to secure debt, security
agreement, or any other agreement or instrument creating an encumbrance, lien,
charge against any of the Collateral is in existence or on file in any public
office, other than financing statements (or other appropriate security
documentation) filed on behalf of the Lender or disclosed on Exhibit "A" hereto;
and (v) all information with respect to the Collateral and the Pledgor's
Liabilities, or any of them, set forth in any written schedule, certificate, or
other document at any time heretofore or hereafter furnished by RCA or the
Pledgor to the Lender, including any Borrowing Base Certificate referred to in
Section 4 of that certain Security Agreement dated as of even date herewith
executed by RCA to the Lender (the "RCA Security Agreement"), and all other
written information heretofore or hereafter furnished by the Pledgor to the
Lender, is and will be true and correct in all material respects as of the date
furnished.

                  3. Further Assurances. The Pledgor will defend its title to
the Collateral against all persons and will, upon request of the Lender, (a)
furnish such further assurances of title as may be required by the Lender, (b)
deliver and execute or cause to be delivered and executed, in form and content
satisfactory to the Lender, any financing statements, notices, certificates of
title, and other documents and pay the cost of filing or recording the same in
all public offices deemed necessary by the Lender, as well as any recordation,
documentary, or transfer tax required by law to be paid in connection with such
filing or recording, and (c) do

                                       2.

<PAGE>   3



such other acts as the Lender may request in order to perfect, preserve,
maintain, or continue the perfection of the Lender's security interest in the
Collateral and/or its priority.

                  4. Accounts, etc. Until such time as the Lender shall notify
the Pledgor in writing of the revocation of such power and authority, the
Pledgor, as agent for the Lender, will, at its own expense, diligently collect,
as and when due, all amounts owing under the Accounts, including the taking of
such action with respect to such collection as the Lender may request from time
to time, and to hold in trust and segregate for the Lender all funds received
from the Accounts; provided, however, that until an Event of Default shall occur
or would occur but for the passage of time, or giving of notice, or both (such
event being a "default"), the Pledgor may use or consume in the ordinary course
of its business any such collections on the Accounts in any lawful manner not
inconsistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lender,
however, may after an Event of Default shall occur or during the continuance of
a default and upon notice to the Pledgor revoke such power and authority and in
any event shall have the authority and right to notify any parties obligated on
any of the Accounts to make payment to the Lender of any amounts due or to
become due thereunder, and enforce collection of performance under any of the
Accounts by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release, or exchange all or any
part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not
longer than the original period) any indebtedness thereunder or evidenced
thereby. After an Event of Default, the Pledgor will, at its own expense, notify
any parties obligated on any of the Accounts to make payments to the Lender and
will hold in trust and immediately forward to the Lender all payments received
by the Pledgor in the form received, with all necessary endorsements thereon for
collection by the Lender.

                  5. Transfer and Other Liens. The Pledgor will not sell, lease,
transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, or any part hereof,
without the prior written consent of the Lender and will not permit any lien,
security interest, or other encumbrance to attach to the Collateral, or any part
thereof, other than those in favor of the Lender or those permitted by the
Lender in writing, except that the Pledgor may, in the ordinary course of its
business and in the absence of an Event of Default hereunder or notice by the
Lender to the Pledgor under this Agreement, collect its Accounts.

                  6. Financial Statements, Books, and Records. The Pledgor will
(a) at all times maintain, in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied, accurate and complete books and records
pertaining to the operation, business affairs, and financial condition of the
Pledgor and pertaining to the Collateral and any contracts and collections
relating to the Collateral, (b) furnish to the Lender promptly upon request,
certified by an officer of the Pledgor and in the form and content and at the
intervals specified by the Lender, such financial statements, reports,
schedules, and other information with respect to the operation, business
affairs, and financial condition of the Pledgor as the Lender may from time to
time require, (c) at all reasonable times, and without hindrance or delay,
permit the Lender or any person designated by the Lender to enter any place of
business of the Pledgor or any other premises where any books, records, and
other data concerning the Pledgor and/or

                                       3.

the Collateral may be kept and to examine, audit, inspect, and make extracts
from and photocopies of any such books, records, and other data, (d) furnish to
the Lender promptly upon request, certified by an officer of the Pledgor and in
the form and content specified by the Lender, lists of purchasers of inventory,
aging of accounts, aggregate cost or wholesale market value of inventory,
schedules of equipment, and other data concerning the Collateral as the Lender
may from time to time specify, and (e) mark its books and records in a manner
satisfactory to the Lender so that the Lender's rights in and to the Collateral
will be shown.

                  7. Name of Pledgor, Places of Business, and Location of
Collateral. The Pledgor represents and warrants that its correct legal name is
as specified on the signature lines of this Agreement, and each legal or trade
name of the Pledgor for the previous five (5) years (if different from the
Pledgor's current legal name) is as specified below the signature lines of this
Agreement. Without the prior written consent of the Lender, the Pledgor will not
change its name, dissolve, merge, or consolidate with any other person. The
Pledgor warrants that the address of the Pledgor's chief executive office and
the address of each other place of business of the Pledgor are as specified
below the signature lines of this Agreement. The Collateral and all books and
records pertaining to the Collateral have been, are, and will be located at the
Pledgor's chief executive office specified below or at any other place of
business which may be specified below the signature lines of this Agreement.
Without the prior written consent of the Lender, the Pledgor will not open any
new place of business or change the location of any Collateral to any place not
specified below. The Pledgor will immediately advise the Lender in writing of
the opening of any new place of business and of any change in the location of
the places where the Collateral or any part thereof, or the books and records
concerning the Collateral or any part thereof, are kept.

                  8. Care of Collateral. The Pledgor will maintain the
Collateral in first-class condition and will not do or permit anything to be
done to the Collateral that may impair its value. The Lender shall have no duty
to, and the Pledgor hereby releases the Lender from all claims for loss or
damage caused by the failure to, collect or enforce any Account or to preserve
rights against prior parties to the Collateral.

                  9. Taxes. The Pledgor will pay as and when due and payable all
taxes, levies, license fees, assessments, and other impositions levied on the
Collateral or any part thereof or for its use and operation.

                  10. Specific Assignments. Promptly upon request by the Lender,
the Pledgor will execute and deliver to the Lender written assignments,
endorsements, and/or schedules, in form and content satisfactory to the Lender,
of specific Accounts or groups of Accounts, but the security interest of the
Lender hereunder shall not be limited in any way by such assignments.

                  11. Government Contracts. If any Account arises out of a
contract or contracts with the United States of America or any department,
agency, or instrumentality thereof, the Pledgor shall immediately notify the
Lender thereof in writing and execute any 

                                       4.

<PAGE>   5



instruments or take any steps required by the Lender in order that all moneys
due or to become due under such contract or contracts shall be assigned to the
Lender and notice thereof given under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act or
other applicable law.

                  12. Collateral Account.

                      (a) Subject to the exercise by Fidelity of its rights and
remedies under the Fidelity Agreement referred to in Section 20 hereof, the
Pledgor will, upon the request of the Lender at any time and from time to time
both prior to and after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, deposit
or cause to be deposited to a bank account designated by the Lender and from
which the Lender alone has power of access and withdrawal (collectively, the
"Collateral Account") all checks, drafts, cash, and other remittances in payment
or on account of payment of the Accounts, and the cash proceeds of any returned
goods, the sale or lease of which gave rise to an Account and, when permitted by
the paying companies (including without limitation, Medicaid and Mutual of Omaha
Medicare payment [EDS-Title XVIII]) all such payments therefrom (all of the
foregoing herein collectively referred to as "Items of Payment"). The Pledgor
shall deposit the Items of Payment for credit to the Collateral Account within
two (2) business days of the receipt thereof, and in precisely the form
received, except for the endorsement of the Pledgor where necessary to permit
the collection of the Items of Payment, which endorsement the Pledgor hereby
agrees to make. Pending such deposit, the Pledgor will not commingle any of the
Items of Payment with any of its other funds or property but will hold them
separate and apart. The Lender may at any time and from time to time apply the
whole or any part of the collected funds credited to the Collateral Account
against the Pledgor's Liabilities.

                      (b) So long as Lender, in its discretion, so desires,
Pledgor shall establish and maintain a blocked account in Lender's name with a
bank satisfactory to Lender (the "Collecting Bank") to which Pledgor will
immediately deposit all payments from account debtors in the identical form in
which such payment was made, whether by cash or check.

                      (c) The Collecting Bank shall acknowledge and agree, in a
manner satisfactory to Lender, that all payments made to such blocked account
are the sole and exclusive property of the Lender, that the Collecting Bank has
no right of set off against such blocked account, and that the Collecting Bank
will wire or otherwise transfer in immediately available funds, in a manner
satisfactory to Lender, funds deposited in such blocked account to Lender on a
daily basis as soon as such funds are collected. Pledgor hereby agrees that all
payments made to such blocked account or otherwise received by Lender, whether
on Accounts or as proceeds of the Collateral or otherwise, will be the sole and
exclusive property of Lender and will be applied on account of the Obligations.
With respect to any payment relating to or proceeds of any Accounts or the
Collateral which come into its possession or under its control, Pledgor and any
affiliates, subsidiaries, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents
or persons acting for or in concert with Pledgor shall receive any such item, as
trustee for Lender, as sole and exclusive property of Lender, and immediately
upon receipt thereof, Pledgor shall remit the same or cause the same to be
remitted in kind, to

                                       5.

Lender, at Lender's address set forth herein. Pledgor agrees to pay to Lender
any and all fees, costs, expenses which Lender incurs in connection with
obtaining and maintaining the blocked account and depositing for collection by
Lender any check or item of payment received or delivered to the Collecting Bank
or the Lender, and Pledgor further agrees to reimburse, indemnify and hold
harmless Lender from any claims asserted by the Collecting Bank in connection
with the blocked account or any returned or uncollected checks received by the
Collecting Bank as proceeds of the Collateral.

                  13. Rights of Lender and Duties of Pledgor. The Lender may at
any time and from time to time both prior to and after the occurrence of an
Event of Default hereunder (a) notify the account debtors obligated on any of
the Collateral to make payments thereon directly to the Lender, and to take
control of the cash and non-cash proceeds of any such Collateral; (b) charge to
the Pledgor any Item of Payment credited to the Collateral Account which is
dishonored by the drawee or maker thereof; (c) compromise, extend, or renew any
of the Collateral or deal with the same as it may deem advisable; (d) release,
make exchanges or substitutions for, or surrender all or any part of the
Collateral; (e) remove from the Pledgor's place of business all books, records,
ledger sheets, correspondence, invoices, and documents relating to or evidencing
any of the Collateral or, without cost or expense to the Lender, make such use
of the Pledgor's place(s) of business as may be reasonably necessary to
administer, control, and collect the Collateral; (f) repair, alter, or supply
goods, if any, necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of
any account debtor; (g) demand, collect, receipt for, and give renewals,
extensions, discharges, and releases of any of the Collateral; (h) institute and
prosecute legal and equitable proceedings to enforce collection of, or realize
upon, any of the Collateral; (i) settle, renew, extend, compromise, compound,
exchange, or adjust claims with respect to any of the Collateral or any legal
proceedings brought with respect thereto; (j) endorse the name of the Pledgor
upon any Items of Payment relating to the Collateral or upon any proof of claim
in bankruptcy against an account debtor; and (k) receive and open all mail
addressed to the Pledgor and, if an Event of Default exists hereunder, notify
postal authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to the Pledgor
to such address as the Lender may designate; and for purposes of taking the
actions described in Subsections (a) through (k) the Pledgor hereby irrevocably
appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact (which appointment being coupled
with an interest is irrevocable while any of Pledgor's Liabilities remain
unpaid), with power of substitution, in the name of the Lender or in the name of
the Pledgor or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Lender, but at the cost
and expense of the Pledgor and without notice to the Pledgor. The Pledgor will
(a) make no material change to the terms of any Account without the prior
written permission of the Lender; (b) on demand, make available in form
acceptable to the Lender shipping documents and delivery receipts evidencing the
shipment of goods which gave rise to an Account, completion certificate, or
other proof of the satisfactory performance of services which gave rise to an
Account, copies of the invoices arising out of an Account, and the Pledgor's
copy of any written contract or order from which an Account arose; and (c) when
requested, regularly advise the Lender whenever an account debtor returns or
refuses to retain any goods, the sale or lease of which gave rise to an Account,
and will comply with any instructions which the Lender may give regarding the
sale or other disposition of such returns.

                  14. Performance by Lender. If the Pledgor fails to perform,
observe, or comply with any of the conditions, terms, or covenants contained in
this Agreement, the Lender, without notice to or demand upon the Pledgor and
without waiving or releasing any of the Pledgor's Liabilities or any Event of
Default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) at any time thereafter
perform such conditions, terms, or covenants for the account and at the expense
of the Pledgor, and may enter upon any place of business or other premises of
the Pledgor for that purpose and take all such action thereon as the Lender may
consider necessary or appropriate for such purpose. All sums paid or advanced by
the Lender in connection with the foregoing and all costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred and
expenses) incurred in connection therewith (collectively, the "Expense
Payments") together with interest thereon at the post-default rate of interest
provided for in the Note (but in no event higher than the maximum interest rate
permitted by applicable law), from the date of payment until repaid in full,
shall be paid by the Pledgor to the Lender on demand and shall constitute and
become a part of the Pledgor's Liabilities secured hereby.

                  15. Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events shall constitute an event of default (an "Event of Default")

                                       7.

prospect of payment of any of the Pledgor's Liabilities is impaired for any
reason; or (p) the occurrence of an "Event of Default" under the Fidelity
Agreement referred to in Section 20 hereof.

                  16. Rights and Remedies upon Default.

                      (a) Upon and after an Event of Default, Lender shall have,

subject to Section 20 hereof, the right to: (i) sell or otherwise dispose of all
or any Collateral in its then condition, or after any further manufacturing or

Lender may see fit. Lender is hereby granted a license or other right to use,
without charge, Pledgor's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any

lease or other disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action by
Lender, if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid and addressed to
Pledgor at its address set forth herein, at least five days prior to such
proposed action, shall constitute commercially reasonable and fair notice
thereof to Pledgor.

                      (d) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which has
not been cured, the rate of interest accruing on the indebtedness evidenced by
the Note shall, at Lender's option, be increased to a default rate of interest

cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power,
or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now
or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the
exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Lender or any one or more of such
rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later
exercise by the Lender of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

                  18. Waiver. No failure or delay by the Lender to insist upon
the strict performance of any term, condition, covenant, or agreement of this

term, condition, covenant, or agreement or of any such breach, or such term,
condition, covenant, or agreement or of any such breach, or preclude the Lender
from exercising any such right, power, or remedy at any later time or times. By

pursuant to the Fidelity Agreement. The Pledgor represents and warrants that
Fidelity has consented to this Agreement and the security interest created
hereby.
