     5. COVENANTS. The Pledgor covenants and agrees with the Administrative
Agent that, from and after the date of this Agreement until the Obligations are
paid in full:

          (a) If the Pledgor shall, as a result of its ownership of the
     Interests, become entitled to receive or shall receive any ownership
     interest or other share certificate (including, without limitation, any
     certificate representing a distribution in connection with any
     reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate
     issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights, whether in
     addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for any
     of the Interests, or otherwise in respect thereof, the Pledgor shall accept
     the same as the Administrative Agent's agent, hold the same in trust for
     the Administrative Agent and deliver the same forthwith to the
     Administrative Agent in the exact form received, duly indorsed by the
     Pledgor to the Administrative Agent, if required, together with an undated
     stock power covering such certificate duly executed in blank and with, if
     the Administrative Agent so requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by
     the Administrative Agent hereunder as additional collateral security for
     the Obligations. In case any distribution of capital shall be made on or in
     respect of the Interests or any property shall be distributed upon or with
     respect to the Interests pursuant to the recapitalization or
     reclassification of the capital of Corporation or pursuant to the
     reorganization thereof, the property so distributed shall be delivered to
     the Administrative Agent to be held by it, subject to the terms hereof, as
     additional collateral security for the Obligations. If any sums of money or
     property so paid or distributed in respect of the Interests shall be
     received by the Pledgor, the Pledgor shall, until such money or property is
     paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent, hold such money or property
     in trust for the Administrative Agent, segregated from other funds of the
     Pledgor, as additional collateral security for the Obligations.

          (b) Except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement, without the
     prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Pledgor will not (i)
     sell, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or grant any
     option with respect to, the Collateral, or (ii) create, incur or permit to
     exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with
     respect to, any of the Collateral, or any interest therein, except for the
     Lien provided for by this Agreement. The Pledgor will defend the right,
     title and interest of the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral
     against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. The Pledgor will
     not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, or
     attempt, offer or contract to do so.

          (c) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the
     Administrative Agent, and at the sole expense of the Pledgor, the Pledgor
     will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and
     documents and take such further actions as the Administrative Agent may
     reasonably request for the purposes of obtaining or preserving the full
     benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted,
     including, without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation


<PAGE>


     statements under the UCC in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the
     Liens granted hereby. The Pledgor also hereby authorizes the Administrative
     Agent to file any such financing or continuation statement without the
     signature of the Pledgor to the extent permitted by applicable law. If any
     amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be
     or become evidenced by any promissory note or other instrument, such note
     or instrument shall be immediately pledged hereunder to the Administrative
     Agent, duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

          (d) The Pledgor will advise the Administrative Agent promptly, in
     reasonable detail, of any Lien or claim made or asserted against any of the
     Collateral.

          (e) The Pledgor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent
     harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from
     any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which
     may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the
     Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by
     this Agreement.

     6. STOCK POWERS. Concurrently with the delivery to the Administrative Agent
of each certificate representing one or more shares of Pledged Certificates to
the Administrative Agent, the Pledgor shall deliver an undated stock power
covering such certificate, duly executed in blank by the Pledgor with, if the
Administrative Agent so requests, signatures guaranteed.

     7. CASH DISTRIBUTIONS; VOTING RIGHTS. Unless an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Pledgor shall be permitted to receive all cash
distributions paid in the normal course of business of Corporation and to
exercise all voting, member and manager rights with respect to the Interests,
PROVIDED HOWEVER, that no vote shall be cast or partnership right exercised or
other action taken which, in the Administrative Agent's reasonable judgment,
would impair the Collateral or which would be inconsistent with or result in a
breach of any provision of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or this
Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Pledgor may make any
distributions permitted under the Credit Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this
restriction under this PARAGRAPH shall be void to the extent that same may
constitute a default under that certain Indenture dated February 26, 2003, as
amended, by RFS Partnership, L.P. and RFS Financing 2002, Inc., as Issuers, RFS
Hotel Investors, Inc. and RFS Leasing VII, Inc., as Guarantors, and U.S. Bank,
National Association, as Trustee.

     8. RIGHTS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

          (a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (i) the
     Administrative Agent shall have the right to receive and shall receive any
     and all cash distributions paid in respect of the Interests and make
     application thereof to the Obligations in such order as it may determine,
     and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, all shares or
     certificates of or evidencing the Interests shall be registered in the name
     of the Administrative Agent or its nominee, and (whether or not so
     registered) the Administrative Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise
     (A) all voting, membership and other rights pertaining to the Interests and
     (B) any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription and any other
     rights, privileges or options pertaining to the Interests as if it were the
     absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to
     exchange at its discretion any and all of the Interests upon the merger,
     consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change
     in the corporate structure of Corporation, or upon the exercise by the


<PAGE>


     Pledgor or the Administrative Agent of any right, privilege or option
     pertaining to such shares or certificates of or evidencing the Interests,
     and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all
     of the Interests with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar
     or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as it may
     determine), all without liability except to account for property actually
     received by it, but the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to exercise
     any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any
     failure to do so or delay in so doing.

          (b) The rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder shall not be
     conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Administrative Agent of
     any right or remedy against Borrowers, or against any other Person which
     may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Obligations or
     against any other collateral security therefor, guarantee thereof or right
     of offset with respect thereto. The Administrative Agent shall not be
     liable for any failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part
     of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, nor shall it be under any
     obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request
     of the Pledgor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever
     with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof.

     9. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S APPOINTMENT AS ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.

          (a) The Pledgor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the
     Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of
     substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable
     power and authority in the place and stead of the Pledgor and in the name
     of the Pledgor or in its own name, from time to time in the Administrative
     Agent's discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this
     Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and
     all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to
     accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the
     generality of the foregoing, hereby gives the Administrative Agent the
     power and right, on behalf of the Pledgor without notice to or assent by
     the Pledgor to do the following:

               (i) upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default
          to ask, demand, collect, receive and give acceptances and receipts for
          any and all moneys due and to become due with respect to the
          Collateral and, in the name of the Pledgor or its own name or
          otherwise, to take possession of, endorse and collect any checks,
          drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of
          moneys due with respect to the Collateral and to file any claim or to
          take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or
          otherwise as deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the
          purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to the
          Collateral or whenever payable;

               (ii) to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or
          other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the
          Collateral; and

               (iii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
          of Default, (A) to direct any party liable for any payment to the
          Pledgor with respect to the Collateral to make payment of any and all
          moneys due and to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative
          Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; (B) to receive
          payment of and receipt for any and all moneys, claims and other
          amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or arising out
          of any Collateral; (C) to sign and endorse any invoices, drafts


<PAGE>


          against debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection
          with accounts and other documents relating to the Collateral; (D) to
          commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in
          equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the
          Collateral and to enforce any other right in respect of any
          Collateral; (E) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought
          against the Pledgor with respect to any Collateral; (F) to settle,
          compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described above
          and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as
          the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; and (G) generally, to
          sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or
          otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as
          though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for
          all purposes, and to do, at the Administrative Agent's option and the
          Pledgor's expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and
          things which the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect,
          preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Administrative Agent's
          security interest therein, in order to effect the intent of this
          Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the Pledgor might do.

     The Pledgor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or
cause to be done by virtue hereof.

          (b) The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent (for the benefit
     of the Lenders) hereunder are solely to protect its interests (for the
     benefit of the Lenders) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty
     upon it to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent shall be
     accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the
     exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors,
     employees or agents shall be responsible to the Pledgor or to any other
     shareholder of Corporation or owner of any ownership interest in
     Corporation, for any act or failure to act.

          (c) The Pledgor also authorizes the Administrative Agent, at any time
     and from time to time, to execute, in connection with the sale provided for
     in SECTION 10 of this Agreement, any indorsements, assignments or other
     instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral.

     10. REMEDIES. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the
Administrative Agent may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies
granted in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing,
evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured
party under the UCC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and to the
extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent, without demand of
performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of
any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the
Pledgor, Corporation or any other Person (all and each of which demands,
defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such
circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the
Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, assign, give option
or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any
part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at
public or private sale or sales, in the over-the-counter market, at any
exchange, broker's board or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may
deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or
for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative
Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the


<PAGE>


extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the
whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of
redemption in the Pledgor, which right or equity is hereby waived or released.
The Administrative Agent shall apply any Proceeds from time to time held by it
and the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation,
realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every
kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the
Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the
Administrative Agent hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the
Obligations, in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect, and only after
such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other
amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section
9-615 of the UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any,
to the Pledgor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor waives
all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent
arising out of the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of its rights
hereunder except to the extent any thereof arise solely from the willful
misconduct of the Administrative Agent. If any notice of a proposed sale or
other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be
deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or
other disposition. The Pledgor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the
proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to
pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender to collect such deficiency.

     11. REGISTRATION RIGHTS; PRIVATE SALES.

          (a) If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right
     to sell any or all of the Interests pursuant to SECTION 10 hereof, and if
     in the opinion of the Administrative Agent it is necessary or advisable to
     have the Interests, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under
     the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES
     ACT"), the Pledgor will cause Corporation to (i) execute and deliver, and
     cause the officers of Corporation to execute and deliver, all such
     instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts
     as may be, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, necessary or
     advisable to register the Interests, or that portion thereof to be sold,
     under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) to use its best efforts to
     cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and
     to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first
     public offering of the Interests, or that portion thereof to be sold, and
     (iii) to make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus
     which, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, are necessary or
     advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act
     and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
     applicable thereto. The Pledgor agrees to cause Corporation to comply with
     the provisions of the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of any and all
     jurisdictions which the Administrative Agent shall designate and to make
     available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings
     statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of
     Section 1l (a) of the Securities Act.

          (b) If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right
     to sell any or all of the Interests pursuant to SECTION 10 hereof, the
     Administrative Agent may resort to one or more private sales thereof to a
     restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other
     things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and
     not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Pledgor
     acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and
     other terms less favorable to the Administrative Agent than if such sale
     were a public sale and agrees that such circumstances shall not, in and of
     themselves, result in a determination that such sale was not made in a
     commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no


<PAGE>


     obligation to delay a sale of any of the Interests.

          (c) The Pledgor further agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause
     to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make any sale or
     sales of all or any portion of the Interests pursuant to this Section valid
     and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Laws. The
     Pledgor further agrees that a continuing breach of any of the covenants
     contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the
     Administrative Agent and the Lenders, that the Administrative Agent and the
     Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
     consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall
     be specifically enforceable against the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby
     waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific
     performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default
     has occurred.

     12. AUTHORITY OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Pledgor acknowledges that the
rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement
with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or
non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request,
judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising
out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with
respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the
Administrative Agent and the Pledgor, the Administrative Agent shall be
conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Lenders with full and valid
authority so to act or refrain from acting, and neither the Pledgor nor
Corporation shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry
respecting such authority.

     13. AMENDMENTS, ETC. WITH RESPECT TO THE OBLIGATIONS. The Pledgor shall
remain obligated hereunder, and the Collateral shall remain subject to the Liens
granted hereby, notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against
the Pledgor, and without notice to or further assent by the Pledgor, any demand
for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and any of
the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any Loan
Party or any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral
security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may,
from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified,
accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered, or released by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, and the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any
other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended,
modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or part, as the Lenders (or the
Required Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and
any guarantee, right of offset or other collateral security at any time held by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations may be
sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative
Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or
insure any other Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or
any property subject thereto. The Pledgor waives any and all notice of the
creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of
or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this
Agreement; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to
have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Agreement; and
all dealings between Corporation and the Pledgor, on the one hand, and the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other, shall likewise be
conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this
Agreement. The Pledgor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for
payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon Borrowers or the Pledgor
with respect to the Obligations.

     14. LIMITATION ON DUTIES REGARDING COLLATERAL. Neither the Administrative
Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable
for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any
delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose
of any Collateral upon the request of the Pledgor or otherwise.

     15. POWERS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST. All authorizations and agencies herein
contained with respect to the Collateral are irrevocable and powers coupled with
an interest.

     16. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

     17. PARAGRAPH HEADINGS. The paragraph headings used in this Agreement are
for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof
or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

     18. NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES; INTEGRATION. The Administrative Agent
shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to this
paragraph), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived
any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Event of Default or
in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise,
nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, any right,
power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or
partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent of any right or remedy hereunder
on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which
the Administrative Agent would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights
and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or
concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
This Agreement represents the agreement of the Pledgor and the Administrative
Agent with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no promises or
representations by the Administrative Agent relative to the subject matter
hereof not reflected herein.

     19. WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; GOVERNING LAW. None of
the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented
or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the Pledgor and
the Administrative Agent, PROVIDED that any provision of this Agreement that
imposes an obligation solely on the Pledgor or provides a right in favor solely
of the Administrative Agent may be waived by the Administrative Agent in a
letter or agreement executed by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the
Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and
assigns of the Pledgor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative
Agent and its successors and assigns. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

     20. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND SERVICE OF PROCESS. THE PLEDGOR HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH
RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN


<PAGE>


RESPECT THEREOF MAY BE BROUGHT AGAINST IT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT,
THE PLEDGOR HEREBY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY
AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. THE
PLEDGOR FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE
AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES
THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE PLEDGOR AT ITS
ADDRESS SET FORTH UNDER ITS SIGNATURE BELOW. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE
RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY HOLDER OF A NOTE TO SERVE PROCESS IN
ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE
PROCEED AGAINST THE PLEDGOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

     21. WAIVERS.

          (a) THE PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY
     OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY ACTION
     DESCRIBED IN PARAGRAPH 20, OR THAT SUCH PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN
     INCONVENIENT COURT, AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME.

          (b) EACH OF THE PLEDGOR AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREBY
     IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
     ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY TYPE AS TO ANY MATTER ARISING
     DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OUT OF OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT.

     22. NOTICES. Any notices or other communications required or permitted to
be given by this Agreement or any other documents and instruments referred to
herein must be given in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

     23. IRREVOCABLE AUTHORIZATION AND INSTRUCTION TO BORROWERS. The Pledgor
hereby authorizes and instructs Borrowers to comply with any instruction
received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (a) states that an
Event of Default has occurred and describes such Event of Default and (b) is
otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or
further instructions from the Pledgor, and the Pledgor agrees that Borrowers
shall be fully protected in so complying.

     24. RELEASE OF LIENS. Upon payment and satisfaction in full of the
Obligations, the Administrative Agent agrees, upon the written request of the
Pledgor and at the Pledgor's sole expense, to execute, record and file such
instruments and perform such acts as are necessary to release the Collateral
from the Liens and security interest of this Agreement or any assignment or
other security document entered into pursuant hereto.

     25. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOT A SHAREHOLDER. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be construed or interpreted to transfer to the Administrative
Agent any of the obligations of a shareholder of Corporation; or (b) to


<PAGE>


constitute the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders a shareholder of
Corporation.

     26. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the
parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of
said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
instrument.

     27. ENTIRETY. THIS AGREEMENT EMBODIES THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG
PLEDGOR AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT WITH RESPECT TO THE PLEDGE AND ASSIGNMENT
OF THE COLLATERAL AND THE OTHER MATTERS ADDRESSED HEREIN AND THEREIN, AND
SUPERSEDES ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND
UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF
AND THEREOF, AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED OR VARIED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR,
CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OF THE PARTIES
HERETO. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO.
