Event of Default, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to exercise the voting
power with respect to the Pledged Collateral, to receive and retain, as
collateral security for the Secured Obligations, any and all dividends or other
distributions at any time and from time to time declared or made upon any of
the Pledged Collateral, and to exercise any and all such rights of payment,
conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options
pertaining to the Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof,
including, without limitation, all such rights under the Articles of
Incorporation, By-Laws, Declaration of Trust or any other charter document of
any Subtenant, and further including, without limitation, the right to
exchange, at its discretion,  5


any and all of the Pledged Collateral upon the merger,
consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of such
Subtenant, upon the exercise of any such right, privilege or option pertaining
to the Pledged Collateral, and in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver
any and all of the Pledged Collateral with any committee, depositary, transfer
agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as
the Secured Parties may determine.  (c)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, the Secured Parties shall have all of the rights and remedies
of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law
and shall have the right to sell, resell, assign and deliver all or any of the
Pledged Collateral in one or more parcels at any exchange or brokers board or
at public or private sale.  The Secured
Parties shall give any Pledgor at least ten (10) days prior written
notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or of the time after
which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be
made.  Any such notice shall be deemed to
meet any requirement hereunder or under any applicable law (including the
Uniform Commercial Code) that reasonable notification be given of the time and
place of such sale or other disposition. 
Such notice may be given without any demand of performance or other
demand, all such demands being hereby expressly waived by the Pledgor to the
extent permitted by applicable law.  All
such sales shall be at such commercially reasonable price or prices as the
Secured Parties shall deem best and either for cash or on credit or for future
delivery (without assuming any responsibility for credit risk).  At any such sale or sales, the Secured
Parties may purchase any or all of the Pledged Collateral to be sold thereat
upon such terms as the Secured Parties may deem best.  Upon any such sale or sales, the Pledged
Collateral so purchased shall be held by the purchaser absolutely free from any
claims or rights of any kind or nature of the Pledgor, including any equity of
redemption and any similar rights, all such equity of redemption and any
similar rights being hereby expressly waived and released by the Pledgor to the
extent permitted by applicable law.  In
the event any consent, approval or authorization of any governmental agency
will be necessary to effectuate any such sale or sales, the Pledgor shall
execute, and hereby agrees to cause the applicable Subtenant to execute, all
such applications or other instruments as may be required.  The proceeds of any such sale or sales,
together with any other additional collateral security at the time received and
held hereunder, shall be received and applied: 
first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale,
including attorneys fees; and second, to the payment of the  6


Secured Obligations in such order of priority as the
Secured Parties shall determine; and any surplus thereafter remaining shall be
paid to the Pledgors or to whomever may be legally entitled thereto (including,
if applicable, any subordinated creditor of any Pledgor).  Each
Pledgor recognizes that the Secured Parties may be unable to effect a public
sale of all or a part of the Pledged Collateral by reason of certain
prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, and may be compelled to
resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who
will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged
Collateral for their own accounts, for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof.  Each
Pledgor agrees that private sales so made may be at prices and upon other terms
less favorable to the seller than if such Pledged Collateral were sold at
public sales, and that the Secured Parties shall have no obligation to delay
sale of any such Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit
such Pledged Collateral to be registered for public sale under the Securities
Act of 1933.  Each Pledgor agrees that
private sales made under the foregoing circumstances may be deemed to have been
made in a commercially reasonable manner. 
Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Pledgor to effect a
registration of the Pledged Collateral under the Securities Act of 1933.  (d)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, the Secured Parties, in their discretion, may demand, sue for
and/or collect any money or property at any time due, payable or receivable, to
which it may be entitled hereunder, on account of or in exchange for any of the
Pledged Collateral.  Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Secured Parties shall
further have the right, for and in the name, place and stead of any Pledgor, to
execute endorsements, assignments, or other instruments of conveyance or
transfer with respect to all or any of the Pledged Collateral.  (e)The Secured Parties shall not be obligated to do any
of the acts hereinabove authorized and in the event that the Secured Parties
elect to do any such act, the Secured Parties shall not be responsible to any
Pledgor, other than for gross negligence or willful misconduct.  (f)The Secured Parties shall have no
obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Pledgor, or against or in
payment of the Secured Obligations or any other obligation owed to the Secured
Parties by any Pledgor or any other person.  7


Section 10. 
Rights of Secured Parties.  No course of
dealing between any Pledgor and the Secured Parties nor any failure to
exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Parties, any
right, power or privilege hereunder or under any of the Secured Obligations,
shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege.  The rights and remedies
herein provided and provided under any of the Secured Obligations are
cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies
provided by law, including, without limitation, the rights and remedies of a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code.  Section 11. 
Assignment, Etc.  No waiver by
the Secured Parties or by any other holder of Secured Obligations of any
default shall be effective unless in writing nor operate as a waiver of any
other default or of the same default on a future occasion.  In the event of a sale or assignment by any
of the Secured Parties of its interest under the Transaction Documents, such
Secured Party may assign or transfer its rights and interest under this
Agreement in whole or in part to the purchaser or assignee of such interest,
whereupon such purchaser or purchasers shall become vested with all of the
powers and rights given to such Secured Party hereunder, and such Secured Party
shall thereafter be forever released and fully discharged from any liability or
responsibility thereafter arising hereunder with respect to the rights and
interests so assigned.  Section 12. 
Duty of Secured Parties.  Beyond the
exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Pledged
Collateral while held hereunder, the Secured Parties shall have no duty or
liability to collect any sums due in respect thereof or to protect or preserve
rights pertaining thereto, and shall be relieved of all responsibility for the
Pledged Collateral upon surrendering the same to the applicable Pledgor.  Section 13. 
Waivers, Etc.  To the extent
permitted by applicable law, each Pledgor, on its own behalf and on behalf of
its successors and assigns, hereby waives presentment, demand, payment, notice
of dishonor, protest and, except as otherwise provided herein, all other
demands and notices in connection with this Agreement or the enforcement of the
rights of the Secured Parties hereunder or in connection with any Secured
Obligations.  The Secured Parties may
release, supersede, exchange or modify any collateral security it may from time
to time hold and release, surrender or modify the liability of any third party
without giving notice hereunder to any Pledgor. 
The  8


Secured Parties shall be under no duty to exhaust its
rights against any such collateral security or any such third party before
realizing on the Pledged Collateral. 
Such modifications, changes, renewals, releases or other actions shall
in no way affect any Pledgors obligations hereunder.  Each
Pledgor further waives any right it may have under the Constitution of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts (or under the constitution of any other state in
which the any of the Pledged Collateral may be located), or under the
Constitution of the United States of America, to notice (except for notice
specifically required hereby) or to a judicial hearing prior to the exercise of
any right or remedy provided by this Agreement to the Secured Parties, and
waives its rights, if any, to set aside or invalidate any sale duly consummated
in accordance with the foregoing provisions hereof on the grounds (if such be
the case) that the sale was consummated without a prior judicial hearing.  EACH PLEDGORS WAIVERS UNDER THIS SECTION 13
HAVE BEEN MADE VOLUNTARILY, INTELLIGENTLY AND KNOWINGLY AND AFTER THE PLEDGOR
HAS BEEN APPRISED AND COUNSELED BY ITS ATTORNEYS AS TO THE NATURE THEREOF AND
ITS POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE RIGHTS.  Section 14.

replacements or proceeds thereof or with respect to any other property or
assets hereafter acquired by any Pledgor which may be deemed to be a part of
the Pledged Collateral) pursuant hereto and thereto.  The Secured Parties are hereby appointed the
