of all of the shares of Assignee declared June 11, 2001 with a record date of
June 27, 2001 and agreed distribution date of July 7, 2001, Assignor is directly

business (the "Property"), substantially as described in that certain
registration statement on Form 10 filed by Assignee with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on April 3, 2001, as amended on May 18, 2001 and June 11,
2001 ("Form 10 Filing").

     D. In connection with the aforesaid transfer of the Property, (i) Assignor

Lessee in and to the Lease and the other Operative Documents, and (ii) Assignee

     5. The parties hereto hereby agree that the consummation of the

To Lessor, the Agent and the Lender as defined in
the Master Agreement hereinafter referred to

          Re: Florida Synthetic Lease Transaction

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I am Corporate Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Certegy
Inc., a Georgia corporation ("Certegy"), and have reviewed fully executed
counterparts of that certain Assignment and Assumption of Lease and other
Operative Documents dated as of June 25, 2001 (the "Assignment") among Equifax
Inc. (the "Original Lessee"), Certegy, as Assignee of the Original Lessee,
Prefco VI Limited Partnership (the "Lessor"), and SunTrust Bank (the "Agent" or
the "Lender"), as the Agent and the Lender. This opinion is being furnished to
you at the request of Certegy pursuant to Section 7 of the Assignment.

     This opinion letter is limited by, and is in accordance with, the January
1, 1992 edition of the Interpretative Standards applicable to Legal Opinions to
Third Parties in Corporate Transactions adopted by the Legal Opinion Committee
of the Corporate and Banking Law Section of the State Bar of Georgia (the
"INTERPRETATIVE STANDARDS"), which Interpretative Standards are incorporated in
this opinion letter by this reference.

     In connection with this representation, I have examined fully executed
counterparts of the following documents (together with the Assignment, the
"Operative Documents"):

          (a) the Master Agreement (Florida Property), dated as of December 30,
1999, as amended (the "Master Agreement"), among Original Lessee, the Lessor,
Atlantic Financial Group, Ltd. and the Agent;

          (b) Lease Agreement dated as of December 30, 1999 between Lessor and
Original Lessee; and

          (c) Operative Guaranty dated as of December 30, 1999 made by Original
Lessee in favor of the Funding Parties as defined in such Operative Guaranty.

     In the capacity described above, I also have considered such matters of law
and of fact, together with such other records and documents of Certegy,
certificates of officers or other representatives of Certegy (including, but not
limited to, the organizational documents for Certegy

<PAGE>

certified to be true and complete in certificates delivered by Certegy to the
Agent and the Lender and the representations and covenants of the parties to the
Assignment as set forth therein), certificates of public officials, and such
other documents as I have deemed appropriate for the opinions and confirmations
herein set forth.

     The opinions set forth herein are limited to the laws of the State of
Georgia (the "STATE") and any applicable federal laws of the United States.

     Without limiting the provisions of the Interpretative Standards, I express
no opinion with respect to any matters regarding compliance with any fiduciary
or similar obligations by any person or entity, or regarding any matters related
to solvency or capitalization or otherwise involving the financial capacity or
viability of any person or entity. I also note that certain consents and waivers
relevant to any opinions in paragraph 4 below are subject to time limits and/or
conditions that require additional actions in the future.

     Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the other exceptions, assumptions
and qualifications set forth or incorporated herein by reference, it is my
opinion that:

     1. Certegy is duly organized as a corporation, and is existing, and in good
standing, under the laws of the State of Georgia. Certegy is duly qualified as a
foreign corporation and in good standing in Wisconsin.

     2. Certegy has the corporate power to execute and deliver the Assignment,
to perform its obligations thereunder, and to own and use its assets and to
conduct its business.

     3. Certegy has duly authorized the execution and delivery of the Assignment
and all performance by it thereunder.

     4. The execution and delivery by Certegy of the Assignment do not, and if
Certegy were now to perform its obligations thereunder, such performance would
not result in any:

          (i) violation of the articles of incorporation or by-laws of Certegy;

          (ii) violation of any existing United States federal or State
          constitution, statute, regulation, rule, order or law to which such
          Certegy or its assets are subject;

          (iii) breach of or default of any material written agreements to
          which, to my knowledge, Certegy or its assets are subject;

          (iv) creation or imposition of any contractual lien or security
          interest in, on or against Certegy's assets under any material written
          agreements to which, to my knowledge, Certegy or its assets are
          subject (except as may be contemplated by the Assignment); or

<PAGE>

          (v) violation of any judicial or administrative decree, writ, judgment
          or order to which, to my knowledge, Certegy or its assets are subject.

     This opinion letter has been delivered solely for the benefit of the
addressees and their respective transferees and counsel, as well as Kilpatrick
Stockton LLP, pursuant to the Assignment and may not be relied upon by any other
person or entity or for any other purpose without the express written permission

hereinafter referred to

                 Re: Florida Synthetic Lease Transaction

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have served as special counsel for Certegy Inc., a Georgia corporation
("Certegy"), in connection with the execution of that certain Assignment and
Assumption of Lease and other Operative Documents dated as of June 25, 2001 (the
"Assignment") among Equifax Inc. (the "Original Lessee"), Certegy, as Assignee
of the Original Lessee, Prefco VI Limited Partnership (the "Lessor"), and
SunTrust Bank (the "Agent" or the "Lender"). This opinion is being furnished to
you at the request of Certegy pursuant to Section 7 of the Assignment.

     This opinion letter is limited by, and is in accordance with, the January
1, 1992 edition of the Interpretative Standards applicable to Legal Opinions to
Third Parties in Corporate Transactions adopted by the Legal Opinion Committee
of the Corporate and Banking Law Section of the State Bar of Georgia (the
"INTERPRETATIVE STANDARDS"), which Interpretative Standards are incorporated in
this opinion letter by this reference.

     In connection with this representation, we have examined fully executed
counterparts of the following documents (together with the Assignment, the
"Operative Documents"):

          (a) the Master Agreement (Florida Property), dated as of December 30,
1999, as amended (the "Master Agreement"), among Original Lessee, the Lessor,
Atlantic Financial Group, Ltd. and the Agent;

          (b) Lease Agreement dated as of December 30,1999 between Lessor and
Original Lessee; and

          (c) Operative Guaranty dated as of December 30, 1999 made by Original
Lessee in favor of the Funding Parties as defined in such Operative Guaranty.

     In the capacity described above, we also have considered such matters of
law and of fact, together with such other records and documents of Certegy,
certificates of officers or other

representatives of Certegy (including, but not limited to, the organizational
documents for Certegy certified to be true and complete in certificates
delivered by Certegy to the Agent and the Lender and the representations and
covenants of the parties to the Assignment as set forth therein), certificates
of public officials, and such other documents as we have deemed appropriate for
the opinions and confirmations herein set forth.

          We also have examined a copy of, and with your permission, we have
relied upon the opinion letter of Bruce S. Richards, Esq., Corporate Vice
President, General Counsel and Secretary of Certegy, of even date herewith
addressed to you with respect to the matters covered thereby.

     The opinions set forth herein are limited to the laws of the State of
Georgia (the "STATE") and any applicable federal laws of the United States.

     Without limiting the provisions of the Interpretative Standards, we express
no opinion with respect to any matters regarding compliance with any fiduciary
or similar obligations by any person or entity, or regarding any matters related
to solvency or capitalization or otherwise involving the financial capacity or
viability of any person or entity.

     Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the other exceptions, assumptions
and qualifications set forth or incorporated herein by reference, it is our
opinion that:

     1. Certegy has duly executed and delivered the Assignment.

     2. No consent, approval, authorization or other action by, or notice to or
filing with, any court or administrative or governmental body of the United
States or the State (other than the filing of the Assignment in the records of
the appropriate governmental authority) is required in connection with the
execution and delivery by Certegy of the Assignment or the incurrence by Certegy
of its obligations thereunder, except such consents, approvals, authorizations,
registrations or filings as have been made or obtained and are in full force and
effect.

     3. The Assignment is enforceable against Certegy.

     4. To our knowledge, Certegy is not an "investment company" within the
meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

     5. To our knowledge, Certegy is not a "holding company", or a "subsidiary
company" of a "holding company", or an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or of
a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company" as such terms are defined in the
Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 as amended.

     SECTION 2.2 Fundings.

          (a) Funding on Closing Date. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Master Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Lender shall make available to
the Lessor its Loans with respect to the Leased Property in an amount equal to
the product of such Lender's Commitment Percentage times the unpaid acquisition,
transaction and closing costs incurred by the Lessee through or to be paid upon
the Closing Date, which funds the Lessor shall use, together with Lessor funds
in an amount equal to the product of the Lessor's Commitment Percentage times
the unpaid acquisition, transaction and closing costs incurred by the Lessor
through or to be paid upon the Closing Date, and the Lessor shall lease the
Leased Property to the Lessee pursuant to the Lease.

          (b) Aggregate Limits on Funded Amounts. The aggregate amount that the
Funding Parties shall be committed to provide as Funded Amounts under this
Master Agreement and the Loan Agreement shall not exceed (x) the costs of
purchase of remainderman interest in the Leased Property and the related
closing, transaction and financing costs, or (y) $23,175,000 in the aggregate.
The aggregate amount that any Funding Party shall be committed to fund under
this Master Agreement and the Loan Agreement shall not exceed the lesser of (i)
such Funding Party's Commitment and (ii) such Funding Party's Commitment
Percentage of the aggregate Fundings requested under this Master Agreement.

          (c) Notice, Time and Place of Fundings. The Lessee shall give the
Lessor and the Agent an irrevocable prior written notice not later than 12:00
noon, Atlanta, Georgia, two Business Days prior to the proposed Closing Date
pursuant to a Funding Request in the form of Exhibit A (a "Funding Request"),
specifying the Closing Date, the amount of Funding requested, and the Rent

                                        2

<PAGE>

60603, or at such other location as may be determined by the Lessor, the Lessee
and the Agent. Each Funding shall occur on a Business Day. All remittances made
by any Lender and the Lessor for any Funding shall be made in immediately
available funds by wire transfer to or, as is directed by, the Lessee, with
receipt by the Lessee not later than 1:00 p.m., Atlanta, Georgia time, on the
Closing Date, upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent to such
Funding set forth in Section 3.

          (d) Lessee's Deemed Representation for Each Funding. The Funding
Request by the Lessee shall be deemed a reaffirmation of the Lessee's indemnity
obligations in favor of the Indemnitees under the Operative Documents and a
representation by the Lessee to the Lessor, the Agent and the Lenders that on
the proposed Closing Date (i) the amount of Funding requested represents amounts
owing in respect of the purchase price of the Leased Property and transaction
and closing costs in respect of the Leased Property, (ii) no Event of Default or
Potential Event of Default exists, and (iii) the representations of the Lessee
set forth in Section 4.1 are true and correct in all material respects as though
made on and as of such Funding Date, except to the extent such representations
or warranties relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such
representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material
respects on and as of such earlier date.

          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in
the other Operative Documents, the Lender's and the Lessor's commitments shall
be several, and not joint. In no event shall any Funding Party be obligated to
fund an amount in excess of such Funding Party's Commitment Percentage of any
Funding, or to fund amounts in the aggregate in excess of such Funding Party's
Commitment.

     SECTION 2.3 Funded Amounts and Interest and Yield Thereon; Facility Fee.

          (a) The Lessor's Invested Amount for the Leased Property outstanding
from time to time shall accrue yield ("Yield") at a rate per annum prior to
January 15, 2000 equal to the sum of the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate
for 30-day periods plus 1.50% and thereafter equal during each Rent Period to
the sum of the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate for such Rent Period plus
1.50% computed using the actual number of days elapsed and a 360 day year. If
all or a portion of the principal amount of or yield on the Lessor's Invested
Amounts shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by
acceleration or


                                        3

<PAGE>

otherwise), such overdue amount shall, without limiting the rights of the Lessor
under the Lease, to the maximum extent permitted by law, accrue yield at the
Overdue Rate, in each case from the date of nonpayment until paid in full (as
well after as before judgment).

          (b) Each Lender's Funded Amount for the Leased Property outstanding
from time to time shall accrue interest as provided in the Loan Agreement.

          (c) Three Business Days prior to the last day of each Rent Period, the
Lessee shall deliver to the Lessor and the Agent a notice substantially in the
form of Exhibit I (each, a "Payment Date Notice"), appropriately completed,
specifying the allocation of the Funded Amounts related to such Rent Period to
the applicable subsequent Rent Periods therefor, provided that no such
allocation shall be in an amount less than $500,000. Each such Payment Date
Notice shall be irrevocable. If no such notice is given, the Funded Amounts
shall have a Rent Period of three (3) months. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
initial Rent Period will end on January 14, 2000.

     SECTION 2.4 Lessee Owner for Tax Purposes. It is the intent of the Lessee
and the Funding Parties that for federal, state and local tax purposes (A) the
Lessee owns the Leased Property and will be entitled to all tax benefits
ordinarily available to an owner of property similar to the Leased Property, (B)
the Lease will be treated as a financing arrangement, and (C) the Lessor will be
treated as a lender making loans to the Lessee. Nevertheless, the Lessee
acknowledges and agrees that no Funding Party or any other Person has made any
representations or warranties concerning the tax, financial, accounting or legal
characteristics or treatment of the Operative Documents and that the Lessee has
obtained and relied solely upon the advice of its own tax, accounting and legal
advisors concerning the Operative Documents and the accounting, tax, financial
and legal consequences of the transactions contemplated therein.

     SECTION 2.5 Amounts Due Under Lease. Anything else herein or elsewhere to
the contrary notwithstanding, it is the intention of the Lessee and the Funding
Parties that: (i) the amount and timing of Basic Rent due and payable from time
to time from the Lessee under the Lease shall be equal to the aggregate payments
due and payable with respect to interest on, and principal of, the Loans in
respect of the Leased Property and Yield on, and principal of, the Lessor's
Invested Amounts, if any, in respect of the Leased Property on each Payment
Date; (ii) if the Lessee


                                        4

<PAGE>

elects the Purchase Option with respect to the Leased Property or becomes
obligated to purchase the Leased Property under the Lease, the Funded Amounts in
respect of the Leased Property, all interest and Yield thereon and all other
obligations of the Lessee owing to the Funding Parties in respect of the Leased
Property shall be paid in full by the Lessee; (iii) if the Lessee properly
elects the Remarketing Option, the principal amount of, and accrued interest on,
the A Loans and the A Percentage of the Lessor's Invested Amounts, if any, will
be paid out of the Recourse Deficiency Amount, and the Lessee shall only be
required to pay to the Lenders in respect of the principal amount of the B Loans
and to the Lessor in respect of the B Percentage of the Lessor's Invested
Amounts, if any, the proceeds of the sale of the Leased Property; and (iv) upon
an Event of Default resulting in an acceleration of the Lessee's obligation to
purchase the Leased Property under the Lease, the amounts then due and payable
by the Lessee under the Lease shall include all amounts necessary to pay in full
the Loans in respect of the Leased Property, and accrued interest thereon, the
Lessor's Invested Amounts in respect of the Leased Property, if any, and accrued
Yield thereon and all other obligations of the Lessee owing to the Funding
Parties in respect of the Leased Property.

          shall not release or impair the Lessee's obligations under the
          Operative Documents with respect to any environmental liabilities
          relating to the Leased Property.

               (vi) Officer's Certificate. Each of the Agent and the Lessor
          shall have received an Officer's Certificate of the Lessee stating
          that, to the best of the officer's knowledge, (A) each and every

<PAGE>

          State (or other appropriate filing office) and the county where the

                                 REPRESENTATIONS

     SECTION 4.1 Representations of Lessee. Effective as of the date of
execution hereof and as of the Closing Date, the Lessee represents and warrants
to each of the other parties hereto as follows:

          (a) Corporate Existence and Power. The Lessee is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation, is duly qualified to transact business in
every jurisdiction where the failure to qualify would have a Material Adverse
Effect, and has all corporate powers and all governmental licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business as now
conducted.

          (b) Corporate and Governmental Authorization; No Contravention. The
execution, delivery and performance by the Lessee of this Agreement and the
other Operative Documents to


                                       11

<PAGE>

which it is a party (i) are within the Lessee's corporate powers, (ii) have been
duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, (iii) require no action by or
in respect of or filing with, any governmental body, agency or official, (iv) do
not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law
or regulation or of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Lessee or
of any agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument
binding upon the Lessee or any of the Subsidiaries which contravention or
default is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (v) do not
result in the creation or imposition of any Lien other than the Liens created by
the Operative Documents on any asset of the Lessee or any of the Subsidiaries.

          (c) Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Operative Document
to which the Lessee is a party each constitute a valid and binding agreement of
the Lessee, enforceable in accordance with its terms, provided that the
enforceability hereof and thereof is subject in each case to general principles
of equity and to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally.

          (d) Financial Information. (i) The consolidated balance sheet of the
Lessee and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and the related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the
Fiscal Year then ended, reported on by Arthur Andersen & Co., copies of which
have been delivered to each of the Funding Parties, and the unaudited
consolidated financial statements of the Lessee for the interim period ended
September 30, 1999, copies of which have been delivered to each of the Funding
Parties, fairly present, in conformity with GAAP (except for year-end
adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the case of interim statements), the
consolidated financial position of the Lessee and its Consolidated Subsidiaries
as of such dates and their consolidated results of operations and cash flows for
such periods stated.

               (ii) Since September 30, 1999 there has been no event, act,
condition or occurrence having a Material Adverse Effect.

          (e) No Litigation. There is no action, suit or proceeding pending

                                       12

<PAGE>

          (f) Compliance with ERISA. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.1(f) as
the same may be revised from time to time, (i) the Lessee and each member of the
Controlled Group have fulfilled their obligations under the minimum funding
standards of ERISA and the Tax Code with respect to each Plan and are in
compliance in all material respects with the presently applicable provisions of
ERISA and the Tax Code, and have not incurred any liability to the PBGC or a
Plan under Title IV of ERISA; and (ii) neither the Lessee nor any member of the
Controlled Group is or ever has been obligated to any material contribution to
any Multiemployer Plan.

          (g) Compliance with Laws; Payment of Taxes. The Lessee and each
Consolidated Subsidiary is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations
and similar requirements of governmental authorities the failure to comply with
which would result in a Material Adverse Effect, except where such compliance is
being contested in good faith through appropriate proceedings. There have been
filed on behalf of the Lessee and each Consolidated Subsidiary all Federal,
state and local income, excise, property and other material tax returns which
are required to be filed by them (or appropriate extensions of such filings have
been obtained) and all taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any
assessment received by or on behalf of the Lessee or any Consolidated Subsidiary
(which are not being contested in good faith by such Person) have been paid. The
charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Lessee and each Consolidated
Subsidiary in respect of taxes or other governmental charges are, in the opinion
of the Lessee adequate. United States federal income tax returns (where
applicable) of the Lessee and each Consolidated Subsidiary have been examined
and closed through the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 1993.

          (h) Subsidiaries; Identification of Consolidated Subsidiaries. Each of
the Consolidated Subsidiaries is a corporation duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, is
duly qualified to transact business in every jurisdiction where the failure to
so qualify would have a Material Adverse Effect, and has all corporate powers
and all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals required
to carry on its business as now conducted in each case where the failure to have
the same would have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the initial Closing Date,
the Lessee has no Subsidiaries except for those Subsidiaries listed on Schedule
4.1(h) which accurately sets forth each such Subsidiary's complete name and
jurisdiction of incorporation, and which identifies Consolidated Subsidiaries as
being such. After the initial Closing Date, in the event that


                                       13

<PAGE>

Lessee's Subsidiaries are no longer published in the Lessee's annual reports
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Schedule 4.1(h) shall be
supplemented from time to time by the Lessee, with copies to the Funding
Parties, to identify any additional Subsidiary and any Subsidiary which has
become a Consolidated Subsidiary and which has not previously been shown as such
on such annual reports or on Schedule 4.1(h) as previously supplemented.

          (i) Investment Company Act. Neither the Lessee nor any Subsidiary is
an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended.

          (j) Public Utility Holding Company Act. Neither the Lessee nor any
Subsidiary is a "holding company", or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding
company", or an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or of a "subsidiary company"
of a "holding company", as such terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding
Company Act of 1935, as amended.

          (k) Ownership of Property; Liens. The Lessee and each Consolidated
Subsidiary has title to its properties sufficient for the conduct of its
business, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted
in Section 5.18.

          (l) No Default. Neither the Lessee nor any Consolidated Subsidiary is
in default under or with respect to any agreement, instrument or undertaking to
which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound which could
reasonably be expected to have or cause a Material Adverse Effect. No Event of
Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

          (m) Full Disclosure. All information heretofore furnished by the
Lessee to any Funding Party (including, without limitation, information
contained in the Lessee's form 10-K annual report for Fiscal Year 1996 and form
10-Q quarterly report for the second Fiscal Quarter of 1997) for purposes of or
in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby is, and
all such information hereafter furnished by the Lessee to any Funding Party will
be, true, accurate and complete in every material respect or based on reasonable
estimates on the date as of which such information is stated or certified.

          (n) Environmental Matters. (i) Neither the Lessee nor any Consolidated
Subsidiary is subject to any Environmental Liability which could reasonably be
expected to have or cause a

has been designated as a potentially responsible party under CERCLA or under any
state statute similar to CERCLA where the probable resulting liability would
have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.1(n), as
revised from time to time, to the knowledge of the Lessee, none of the
Properties has been identified on any current or proposed (1) National
Priorities List under 40 C.F.R. Section 300, (2) CERCLIS list or (3) any list
arising from a state statute similar to CERCLA, in each case under circumstances
which have or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

               (ii) Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.1(n), as revised from time

pesticides and other materials used, produced, manufactured, processed, treated,
recycled, generated, stored, disposed of, managed, or otherwise handled in
minimal amounts in the ordinary course of business in compliance with all
applicable Environmental Requirements, except in such instances where such
failure of compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

time to time, the Lessee, and each of the Subsidiaries has procured all
Environmental Authorizations necessary for the conduct of its business, and is

other securities of the Lessee and each Consolidated Subsidiary presently issued

applicable laws, including but not limited to, the "Blue Sky" laws of all

Schedule 4.1(o), as revised from time to time, the issued shares of Capital

are owned by the Lessee free and clear of any Lien or adverse claim and at least

                                       15

          (q) Insolvency. After giving effect to the execution and delivery of
the Operative Documents and the funding of the Funded Amounts under the
Operative Agreement: (i) the Lessee will not (x) be "insolvent," within the
meaning of such term as used in O.C.G.A. Section 18-2-22 or as defined in

Operative Documents will not be rendered avoidable under any Other Applicable
Law. For purposes of this Section 4(q), "Bankruptcy Code" means Title 11 of the
United States Code, "UFTA" means the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, "UFCA"
means the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, and "Other Applicable Law" means
any other applicable state law pertaining to fraudulent transfers or acts
voidable by creditors, in each case as such law may be amended from time to
time.

          (r) Insurance. The Lessee and each Consolidated Subsidiary has (either
in the name of the Lessee or in such Consolidated Subsidiary's own name), with
financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance on all its
property in comparable amounts and against comparable risks as are usually

materially adverse effect on the Lessee, the Lessor, any Lender or the Leased
Property.

               (iii) The Lessee has, or will obtain on or before the date
required by applicable Environmental Laws, all Environmental Permits necessary
to operate the Leased Property in accordance with applicable Environmental Laws
and is complying with and has at all times complied with all such Environmental

or to so comply would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

citations, summons, complaint or order has been issued or filed to or with
respect to the Lessee, no penalty has been assessed on the Lessee and no

knowledge, past facts, circumstances, activities, events, conditions or
occurrences regarding the Leased Property (including without limitation the
release or presence of Hazardous Materials) that could reasonably be anticipated

Operative Documents.

               (vi) Notwithstanding any provision herein or in the Lease to the

extent that such Claim results from the willful misconduct (not taken at the
request of the Lessee), willful misrepresentation or gross negligence of such
Indemnitee, or (2) any Claim resulting from Lessor Liens which the Lessor
Indemnitee Group is responsible for discharging under the Operative Documents.
It is expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity provided for herein
shall survive the expiration or termination of, and shall be separate and
independent from any other remedy under this Master Agreement, the Lease or any
other Operative Document.

of Section 7.1, the Lessee agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend each
Indemnitee from and against any and all claims (including without limitation

paralegals' fees and expenses), including, but not limited to, all costs
incurred in connection with any investigation or monitoring of site conditions
or any clean-up, remedial, removal or restoration work by any federal, state or

out of


                                       37

<PAGE>

          (i) the presence on or under the Land of any Hazardous Materials, or
     any releases or discharges of any Hazardous Materials on, under, from or
     onto the Land,

          (ii) any activity, including, without limitation, construction,
     carried on or undertaken on or off the Land, and whether by the Lessee or

     Person, in connection with the handling, treatment, removal, storage,
     decontamination, clean-up, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Materials
     that at any time are located or present on or under or that at any time
     migrate, flow, percolate, diffuse or in any way move onto or under the

     or under applicable Environmental Laws, in each case to the extent related
     to the Leased Property,

          (iv) any claim concerning the Leased Property's lack of compliance
     with applicable Environmental Laws, or any act or omission causing an
     environmental condition on or with respect to the Leased Property that
     requires remediation or would allow any governmental agency to record a
     lien or encumbrance on the land records, or

          (v) any residual contamination on or under the Land, or affecting any
     natural resources on the Land, and to any contamination of any property or
     natural resources arising in connection with the generation, use, handling,
     storage, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Materials on or from the
     Leased Property; in each case irrespective of whether any of such
     activities were or will be undertaken in accordance with applicable laws,
     regulations, codes and ordinances;


                                       38

<PAGE>

in any case with respect to the matters described in the foregoing clauses (i)
through (v) that arise or occur

          (w) prior to or during the Lease Term,

          (x) at any time during which the Lessee or any Affiliate thereof owns
     any interest in or otherwise occupies or possesses the Leased Property or
     any portion thereof,

          (y) during any period after and during the continuance of any Event of
     Default or

          (z) during any period of up to three years following the date an
     Indemnitee takes possession of the Leased Property and during which such
     Indemnitee retains such possession;

provided, however, the Lessee shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnitee
under this Section 7.2 for any Claim to the extent that such Claim results from
(1) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee or (2)
Hazardous Materials which are initially placed on, in or under the Leased
Property by a Person other than the Lessee or any Affiliate thereof or any
sublessee or assignee of Lessee after the date the Lessee has surrendered
possession of the Leased Property and such Indemnitee, or any nominee of such
Indemnitee or third-party purchaser of the Leased Property takes possession of
the Leased Property. It is expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity
provided for herein shall survive the expiration or termination of and shall be
separate and independent from any other remedy under this Master Agreement, the
Lease or any other Operative Document.

     SECTION 7.3 Proceedings in Respect of Claims. With respect to any amount
that the Lessee is requested by an Indemnitee to pay by reason of Section 7.1 or
7.2, such Indemnitee shall, if so requested by the Lessee and prior to any
payment, submit such additional information to the Lessee as the Lessee may
reasonably request and which is in the possession of such Indemnitee to
substantiate properly the requested payment. In case any action, suit or
proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall notify
the Lessee of the commencement thereof, and the Lessee shall be entitled, at its
expense, to participate in, and, to the extent that the Lessee desires to,
assume and control the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such Indemnitee; provided, however, that such Indemnitee may pursue a motion to
dismiss such Indemnitee from such action, suit


                                       39

<PAGE>

or proceeding with counsel of such Indemnitee's choice at the Lessee's expense;
and provided further that the Lessee may assume and control the defense of such
proceeding only if the Lessee shall have acknowledged in writing its obligations
to fully indemnify such Indemnitee in respect of such action, suit or
proceeding, the Lessee shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses related to
such action, suit or proceeding as and when incurred and the Lessee shall keep
such Indemnitee fully apprised of the status of such action suit or proceeding
and shall provide such Indemnitee with all information with respect to such
action suit or proceeding as such Indemnitee shall reasonably request; and,
provided further, that the Lessee shall not be entitled to assume and control
the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding if and to the extent that,
(A) in the reasonable opinion of such Indemnitee, (x) such action, suit or
proceeding involves any possibility of imposition of criminal liability or any
material risk of material civil liability on such Indemnitee or (y) such action,
suit or proceeding will involve a material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss
of, or the creation of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on the Leased
Property or any part thereof unless the Lessee shall have posted a bond or other
security satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitees in respect to such risk or (z)
the control of such action, suit or proceeding would involve an actual or
potential conflict of interest, (B) such proceeding involves Claims not fully
indemnified by the Lessee which the Lessee and the Indemnitee have been unable
to sever from the indemnified claim(s), or (C) an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing. The Indemnitee may participate in a reasonable manner at its
own expense and with its own counsel in any proceeding conducted by the Lessee
in accordance with the foregoing.

     If the Lessee fails to fulfill the conditions to the Lessee's assuming the
defense of any claim on or prior to the date that is 15 days prior to the date
that an answer or response is required, the Indemnitee may undertake such
defense, at the Lessee's expense. The Lessee shall not enter into any settlement
or other compromise with respect to any Claim which is entitled to be
indemnified under Section 7.1 or 7.2 without the prior written consent of the
related Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Unless an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no Indemnitee shall
enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any claim which is
entitled to be indemnified under Section 7.1 or 7.2 without the prior written
consent of the Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless
such Indemnitee waives


                                       40

<PAGE>

its right to be indemnified under Section 7.1 or 7.2 with respect to such Claim.

     Upon payment in full of any Claim by the Lessee pursuant to Section 7.1 or
7.2 to or on behalf of an Indemnitee, the Lessee, without any further action,
shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such Indemnitee may have relating
thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance policies maintained by such
Indemnitee at its own expense), and such Indemnitee shall execute such
instruments of assignment and conveyance, evidence of claims and payment and
such other documents, instruments and agreements as may be reasonably necessary
to preserve any such claims and otherwise cooperate with the Lessee and give
such further assurances as are reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the
Lessee vigorously to pursue such claims.

     Any amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.2 shall be
paid to such Indemnitee promptly upon, but in no event later than 30 days after,
receipt of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee, accompanied by a
written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity
and the computation of the amount so payable.

     If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 7.1 or 7.2 is
unavailable to an Indemnitee or is insufficient to hold an Indemnitee harmless,
then the Lessee agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnitee as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received
by such Indemnitee on the one hand and by the Lessee on the other hand but also
the relative fault of such Indemnitee as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. It is expressly understood and agreed that the right to
contribution provided for herein shall survive the expiration or termination of
and shall be separate and independent from any other remedy under this Master
Agreement, the Lease or any other Operative Document.

     SECTION 7.4 General Tax Indemnity. (a) Tax Indemnity. Except as otherwise
provided in this Section 7.4, the Lessee shall pay on an After-Tax Basis, and on
written demand shall indemnify and hold each Tax Indemnitee harmless from and
against, any and all fees (including, without limitation, documentation,
recording, license and registration fees), taxes (including, without limitation,
income, gross receipts, sales, rental, use, turnover, value-added, property,
excise and stamp taxes), levies, imposts, duties, charges, assessments or
withholdings of any


                                       41

<PAGE>

nature whatsoever, together with any penalties, fines or interest thereon or
additions thereto (any of the foregoing being referred to herein as "Taxes" and
individually as a "Tax" (for the purposes of this Section 7.4, the definition of
"Taxes" includes amounts imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against each Tax
Indemnitee as the result of any prohibited transaction, within the meaning of
Section 406 or 407 of ERISA or Section 4975(c) of the Tax Code, arising out of
the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Operative Document))
imposed on or with respect to any Tax Indemnitee, the Lessee, the partnership
interests in the Lessor, the Leased Property or any portion thereof or the Land,
or any sublessee or user thereof, by the United States or by any state or local
government or other taxing authority in the United States in connection with or
in any way relating to (i) the acquisition, financing, mortgaging, construction,
preparation, installation, inspection, delivery, non-delivery, acceptance,
rejection, purchase, ownership, possession, rental, lease, sublease,
maintenance, repair, storage, transfer of title, redelivery, use, operation,
condition, sale, return or other application or disposition of all or any part
of the Leased Property or the partnership interests in the Lessor or the
imposition of any Lien (or incurrence of any liability to refund or pay over any
amount as a result of any Lien) thereon, (ii) Basic Rent or Supplemental Rent or
the receipts or earnings arising from or received with respect to the Leased
Property or any part thereof, or any interest therein or any applications or
dispositions thereof, (iii) any other amount paid or payable pursuant to the
Notes, or any other Operative Documents, (iv) the Leased Property, the Land or
any part thereof or any interest therein (including, without limitation, all
assessments payable in respect thereof, including, without limitation, all
assessments noted on the related Title Policy), (v) all or any of the Operative
Documents, any other documents contemplated thereby, any amendments and
supplements thereto, and (vi) otherwise with respect to or in connection with
the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents.

apply to:

               (i) Taxes on, based on, or measured by or with respect to net
     income of the Lessor and the Lender (including, without limitation, minimum
     Taxes, capital gains Taxes, Taxes on or measured by items of tax preference
     or alternative minimum Taxes) other than (A) any such Taxes that are, or
     are in the nature of, sales, use, license, rental or property Taxes, (B)
     withholding Taxes imposed by


                                       42

<PAGE>

     the United States or any state in which Leased Property is located (i) on
     payments with respect to the Notes, to the extent imposed by reason of a
     change in Applicable Law occurring after the date on which the holder of
     such Note became the holder of such Note or (ii) on Rent, to the extent the
     net payment of Rent after deduction of such withholding Taxes would be less
     than amounts currently payable with respect to the Funded Amounts and (C)
     Taxes relating to activities of the Lessor prior to the Closing Date;

               (ii) Taxes on, based on, or in the nature of or measured by Taxes
     on doing business, business privilege, franchise, capital, capital stock,
     net worth, or mercantile license or similar taxes other than (A) any
     increase in such Taxes imposed on such Tax Indemnitee by any state in which
     the Leased Property is located, net of any decrease in such taxes realized
     by such Tax Indemnitee, to the extent that such tax increase would not have
     occurred if on the Closing Date the Lessor and the Lender had advanced
     funds to the Lessee in the form of loans secured by the Leased Property in
     an amount equal to the Funded Amounts funded on such Funding Date, with
     debt service for such loans equal to the Basic Rent payable on each Payment
     Date and a principal balance at the maturity of such loans in a total
     amount equal to the Funded Amounts at the end of the Lease Term, or (B) any
     Taxes that are or are in the nature of sales, use, rental, license or
     property Taxes;

               (iii) Taxes that are based on, or measured by, the fees or other
     compensation received by a Person acting as Agent (in its individual
     capacities) or any Affiliate of any thereof for acting as trustee under the
     Loan Agreement;

               (iv) Taxes that result from any act, event or omission, or are
     attributable to any period of time, that occurs after the earliest of (A)
     the expiration of the Lease Term and, if the Leased Property is required to
     be returned to the Lessor in accordance with the Lease, such return and (B)
     the discharge in full of the Lessee's obligations to pay the Lease Balance,
     or any amount determined by reference thereto, with respect to the Leased
     Property and all other amounts due under the Lease, unless such Taxes
     relate to acts, events or matters occurring prior to the earliest of such
     times or are imposed on or with respect to any payments due under the
     Operative Documents after such expiration or discharge;


                                       43

<PAGE>

               (v) Taxes imposed on a Tax Indemnitee that result from any
     voluntary sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition by such Tax
     Indemnitee or any related Tax Indemnitee of any interest in the Leased
     Property or any part thereof, or any interest therein or any interest or
     obligation arising under the Operative Documents, or from any sale,
     assignment, transfer or other disposition of any interest in such Tax
     Indemnitee or any related Tax Indemnitee, it being understood that each of
     the following shall not be considered a voluntary sale: (A) any
     substitution, replacement or removal of any of the property by the Lessee,
     (B) any sale or transfer resulting from the exercise by the Lessee of any
     termination option, any purchase option or sale option, (C) any sale or
     transfer while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
     under the Lease, and (D) any sale or transfer resulting from the Lessor's
     exercise of remedies under the Lease;

               (vi) any Tax which is being contested in accordance with the
     provisions of Section 7.4(c), during the pendency of such contest;

               (vii) any Tax that is imposed on a Tax Indemnitee as a result of
     such Tax Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct (other than
     gross negligence or willful misconduct imputed to such Tax Indemnitee
     solely by reason of its interest in the Leased Property);

               (viii) any Tax to the extent resulting from a Tax Indemnitee
     engaging after the Closing Date, with respect to the Leased Property or the
     partnership interests in the Lessor, in transactions other than those
     permitted by the Operative Documents;

               (ix) to the extent any interest, penalties or additions to tax
     result in whole or in part from the failure of a Tax Indemnitee to file a
     return that it is required to file in a proper and timely manner, unless
     such failure (A) results from the transactions contemplated by the
     Operative Documents in circumstances where the Lessee did not give timely
     notice to such Tax Indemnitee (and such Tax Indemnitee otherwise had no
     actual knowledge) of such filing requirement that would have permitted a
     proper and timely filing of such return, or (B) results from the failure of
     the Lessee to supply information necessary for the proper


                                       44

<PAGE>

     and timely filing of such return that was not in the possession of such Tax
     Indemnitee; and

               (x) any Tax that results from the breach by the Lessor of its
     representation and warranty made in Section 4.2(b) or the breach of any
     Lender of its representation and warranty made in Section 4.3(b).

          (c) Contests. If any claim shall be made against any Tax Indemnitee or
if any proceeding shall be commenced against any Tax Indemnitee (including a
written notice of such proceeding) for any Taxes as to which the Lessee may have
an indemnity obligation pursuant to Section 7.4, or if any Tax Indemnitee shall
determine that any Taxes as to which the Lessee may have an indemnity obligation
pursuant to Section 7.4 may be payable, such Tax Indemnitee shall promptly
notify the Lessee. The Lessee shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate
in, and, to the extent that the Lessee desire to, assume and control the defense
thereof; provided, however, that the Lessee shall have acknowledged in writing
its obligation to fully indemnify such Tax Indemnitee in respect of such action,
suit or proceeding if the contest is unsuccessful; and, provided further, that
the Lessee shall not be entitled to assume and control the defense of any such
action, suit or proceeding (but the Tax Indemnitee shall then contest, at the
sole cost and expense of the Lessee, on behalf of the Lessee with
representatives reasonably satisfactory to the Lessee) if and to the extent
that, (A) in the reasonable opinion of such Tax Indemnitee, such action, suit or
proceeding (x) involves any meaningful risk of imposition of criminal liability
or any material risk of material civil liability on such Tax Indemnitee or (y)
will involve a material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, or the creation
of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on the Leased Property or any part
thereof unless the Lessee shall have posted a bond or other security
satisfactory to the relevant Tax Indemnitees in respect to such risk, (B) such
proceeding involves Claims not fully indemnified by the Lessee which the Lessee
and the Tax Indemnitee have been unable to sever from the indemnified claim(s),
(C) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (D) such action, suit or
proceeding involves matters which extend beyond or are unrelated to the
Transaction and if determined adversely could be materially detrimental to the
interests of such Tax Indemnitee notwithstanding indemnification by the Lessee
or (E) such action, suit or proceeding involves any federal or any state income
tax liability of the Tax Indemnitee. With respect to any contests controlled by
a Tax Indemnitee, (i) if such contest relates to the federal or any state income
tax liability of such Tax


                                       45

<PAGE>

Indemnitee, such Tax Indemnitee shall be required to conduct such contest only
if the Lessee shall have provided to such Tax Indemnitee an opinion of
independent tax counsel selected by the Tax Indemnitee and reasonably
satisfactory to the Lessee stating that a reasonable basis exists to contest
such claim or (ii) in the case of an appeal of an adverse determination of any
contest relating to any Taxes, an opinion of such counsel to the effect that
such appeal is more likely than not to be successful, provided, however, such
Tax Indemnitee shall in no event be required to appeal an adverse determination
to the United States Supreme Court. The Tax Indemnitee may participate in a
reasonable manner at its own expense and with its own counsel in any proceeding
conducted by the Lessee in accordance with the foregoing.

          Each Tax Indemnitee shall at the Lessee's expense supply the Lessee
with such information and documents in such Tax Indemnitee's possession
reasonably requested by the Lessee as are necessary or advisable for the Lessee
to participate in any action, suit or proceeding to the extent permitted by this
Section 7.4. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
no Tax Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with
respect to any Claim which is entitled to be indemnified under this Section 7.4
without the prior written consent of the Lessee, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, unless such Tax Indemnitee waives its right to be
indemnified under this Section 7.4 with respect to such Claim.

          Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (a) a Tax
Indemnitee will not be required to contest (and the Lessee shall not be
permitted to contest) a claim with respect to the imposition of any Tax if such
Tax Indemnitee shall waive its right to indemnification under this Section 7.4
with respect to such claim (and any related claim with respect to other taxable
years the contest of which is precluded as a result of such waiver) and (b) no
Tax Indemnitee shall be required to contest any claim if the subject matter
thereof shall be of a continuing nature and shall have previously been decided
adversely, unless there has been a change in law which in the opinion of Tax
Indemnitee's counsel creates substantial authority for the success of such
contest. Each Tax Indemnitee and the Lessee shall consult in good faith with
each other regarding the conduct of such contest controlled by either.

          (d) Reimbursement for Tax Savings. If (x) a Tax Indemnitee shall
obtain a credit or refund of any Taxes paid by


                                       46

<PAGE>

the Lessee pursuant to this Section 7.4 or (y) by reason of the incurrence or
imposition of any Tax for which a Tax Indemnitee is indemnified hereunder or any
payment made to or for the account of such Tax Indemnitee by the Lessee pursuant
to this Section 7.4, such Tax Indemnitee at any time realizes a reduction in any
Taxes for which the Lessee is not required to indemnify such Tax Indemnitee
pursuant to this Section 7.4, which reduction in Taxes was not taken into
account in computing such payment by the Lessee to or for the account of such
Tax Indemnitee, then such Tax Indemnitee shall promptly pay to the Lessee (xx)
the amount of such credit or refund, together with the amount of any interest
received by such Tax Indemnitee on account of such credit or refund or (yy) an
amount equal to such reduction in Taxes, as the case may be; provided that no
such payment shall be made so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing and, provided, further, that the amount payable to the Lessee
by any Tax Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 7.4(d) shall not at any time
exceed the aggregate amount of all indemnity payments made by the Lessee under
this Section 7.4 to such Tax Indemnitee with respect to the Taxes which gave
rise to the credit or refund or with respect to the Tax which gave rise to the
reduction in Taxes less the amount of all prior payments made to the Lessee by
such Tax Indemnitee under this Section 7.4(d). Each Tax Indemnitee agrees to act
in good faith to claim such refunds and other available Tax benefits, and take
such other actions as may be reasonable to minimize any payment due from the
Lessee pursuant to this Section 7.4. The disallowance or reduction of any
credit, refund or other tax savings with respect to which a Tax Indemnitee has
made a payment to the Lessee under this Section 7.4(d) shall be treated as a Tax
for which the Lessee are obligated to indemnify such Tax Indemnitee hereunder
without regard to Section 7.4(b) hereof.

          (e) Payments. Any Tax indemnifiable under this Section 7.4 shall be
paid directly when due to the applicable taxing authority if direct payment is
practicable and permitted. If direct payment to the applicable taxing authority
is not permitted or is otherwise not made, any amount payable to a Tax
Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7.4 shall be paid within thirty (30) days after
receipt of a written demand therefor from such Tax Indemnitee accompanied by a
written statement describing in reasonable detail the amount so payable, but not
before the date that the relevant Taxes are due. Any payments made pursuant to
Section 7.4 shall be made to the Tax Indemnitee entitled thereto or the Lessor,
as the case may be, in immediately available funds at such bank or to such
account as specified by the payee in written directions to the payor, or, if no
such direction shall


                                       47

<PAGE>

have been given, by check of the payor payable to the order of the payee by
certified mail, postage prepaid at its address as set forth in this Master
Agreement. Upon the request of any Tax Indemnitee with respect to a Tax that the
Lessee are required to pay, the Lessee shall furnish to such Tax Indemnitee the
original or a certified copy of a receipt for the Lessee's payment of such Tax
or such other evidence of payment as is reasonably acceptable to such Tax
Indemnitee.

          (f) Reports. If the Lessee knows of any report, return or statement
required to be filed with respect to any Taxes that are subject to
indemnification under this Section 7.4, the Lessee shall, if the Lessee is
permitted by Applicable Law, timely file such report, return or statement (and,
to the extent permitted by law, show ownership of the applicable Leased Property
in the Lessee); provided, however, that if the Lessee is not permitted by
Applicable Law or does not have access to the information required to file any
such report, return or statement, the Lessee will promptly so notify the
appropriate Tax Indemnitee, in which case Tax Indemnitee will file such report.
In any case in which the Tax Indemnitee will file any such report, return or
statement, the Lessee shall, upon written request of such Tax Indemnitee,
prepare such report, return or statement for filing by such Tax Indemnitee or,
if such Tax Indemnitee so requests, provide such Tax Indemnitee with such
information as is reasonably available to the Lessee.

          (g) Verification. At the Lessee's request, the amount of any indemnity
payment by the Lessee or any payment by a Tax Indemnitee to the Lessee pursuant
to this Section 7.4 shall be verified and certified by an independent public
accounting firm selected by the Lessee and reasonably acceptable to the Tax
Indemnitee. Unless such verification shall disclose an error in the Lessee's
favor of 5% or more, the costs of such verification shall be borne by the
Lessee. In no event shall the Lessee have the right to review the Tax
Indemnitee's tax returns or receive any other confidential information from the
Tax Indemnitee in connection with such verification. The Tax Indemnitee agrees
to cooperate with the independent public accounting firm performing the
verification and to supply such firm with all information reasonably necessary
to permit it to accomplish such verification, provided that the information
provided to such firm by such Tax Indemnitee shall be for its confidential use.
The parties agree that the sole responsibility of the independent public
accounting firm shall be to verify the amount of a payment pursuant to this
Master Agreement and that matters of


                                       48

<PAGE>

interpretation of this Master Agreement are not within the scope of the
independent accounting firm's responsibilities.

     SECTION 7.5 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If on
or prior to the first day of any Rent Period:

          (a) the Agent determines that deposits in Dollars (in the applicable
     amounts) are not being offered in the relevant market for such Rent Period,
     or

          (b) the Required Funding Parties advise the Agent that the London
     Interbank Offered Rate as determined by the Agent will not adequately and
     fairly reflect the cost to such Funding Parties of funding LIBOR Advances
     for such Rent Period,

the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Lessee and the Funding
Parties, whereupon until the Agent notifies the Lessee that the circumstances
giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Funding
Parties to make or maintain such Funded Amounts as LIBOR Advances shall be
suspended, and such affected LIBOR Advances shall bear interest or accrue yield,
as the case may be, at the Alternative Rate.

     SECTION 7.6 Illegality. If, after the date hereof, the adoption of any
applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof (any such agency being referred to as an "Authority" and any such event
being referred to as a "Change of Law"), or compliance by any Funding Party (or
its Funding Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the
force of law) of any Authority shall make it unlawful or impossible for any
Funding Party (or its Funding Office) to make, maintain or fund its LIBOR
Advances and such Funding Party shall so notify the Agent, the Agent shall
forthwith give notice thereof to the other Funding Parties and the Lessee,
whereupon until such Funding Party notifies the Lessee and the Agent that the
circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of
such Funding Party to make LIBOR Advances shall be suspended. Before giving any
notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section, such Funding Party shall designate
a different Funding Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving
such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Funding Party, be otherwise
disadvantageous to such Funding Bank. If such Funding Party shall determine that
it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding LIBOR
Advances to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, each LIBOR Advance of
such Funding Party shall be converted to an Alternative Rate Advance.


                                       49

<PAGE>

     SECTION 7.7 Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If after the date
hereof, a Change of Law or compliance by any Funding Party (or its Funding
Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law)
of any Authority:

          (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special
     deposit or similar requirement (including, without limitation, (1) any such
     requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
     System, and (2) with respect to any LIBOR Advance, any reserve requirement
     described in the definition of Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage in excess of
     the reserve requirement of the Agent) against assets of, deposits with or
     for the account of, or credit extended by, any Funding Party (or its
     Funding Office); or

          (ii) shall impose on any Funding Party (or its Funding Office) or on
     the United States market for certificates of deposit or the London
     interbank market any other condition affecting its LIBOR Advances or its
     obligation to make LIBOR Advances;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Funding
Party (or its Funding Office) of making or maintaining any LIBOR Advance, or to
reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Funding Party (or
its Funding Office) under the Operative Documents with respect thereto, by an
amount deemed by such Funding Party to be material, then, within 15 days after
demand by such Funding Party (with a copy to the Agent), the Lessee shall pay to
such Funding Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Funding Party for such increased cost or reduction.

          (b) If any Funding Party shall have determined that after the date
hereof the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital
adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by any Funding Party (or its Funding
Office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not
having the force of law) of any Authority, has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on such Funding Party's capital as a consequence of
its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Funding Party could
have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration such Funding Party's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by
an amount deemed by such Funding Party to be material, then within 15 days after
demand by such Funding Party (with a copy to the Agent), the Lessee shall pay to
such Funding Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Funding


                                       50

<PAGE>

Party for such reduction, but in no event shall the Lessee be liable for amounts
incurred more than 90 days prior to receipt of such demand.

          (c) Each Funding Party will promptly notify the Lessee and the Agent
of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which
will entitle such Funding Party to compensation pursuant to this Section and
will designate a different Funding Office if such designation will avoid the
need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the
judgment of such Funding Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Funding
Party. A certificate of any Funding Party claiming compensation under this
Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it
hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining
such amount, such Funding Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution
methods.

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Lessee is required
to pay any Funding Party amounts pursuant to Section 7.6 or this Section 7.7 and
the designation of a different Funding Office pursuant to Section 7.6 or Section
7.7 will not avoid the need for compensation to such Funding Party (an "Affected
Funding Party"), the Lessee may give notice to such Affected Funding Party (with
copies to the Agent) that it wishes to seek one or more assignees (which may be
one or more of the Funding Parties) to assume the Commitment of such Affected
Funding Party and to purchase its outstanding Funded Amounts; provided, that if
there is more than one Affected Funding Party which has requested substantially
and proportionally equal compensation hereunder, the Lessee shall elect to seek
an assignee to assume the Commitments of all such Affected Funding Parties. Each
Affected Funding Party agrees to sell its Commitment, Funded Amounts and
interest in the Operative Documents in accordance with Section 6 to any such
assignee for an amount equal to the sum of the outstanding unpaid principal of
and accrued interest or Yield on such Funded Amounts, plus all other fees and
amounts (including, without limitation, any compensation due to such Affected
Funding Parties under Section 7.6 or this Section 7.7) due to such Affected
Funding Party hereunder calculated, in each case, to the date such Funded
Amounts and interest are purchased. Upon such sale or prepayment, each such
Affected Funding Party shall have no further commitment or other obligation to
the Lessee hereunder or under any Operative Document.

          (e) The provisions of this Section 7.7 (i) shall be applicable with
respect to any Assignee, and any calculations required by such provisions shall
be made based upon the circumstances of such Assignee and (ii) shall constitute
a continuing agreement and shall survive the termination of the


                                       51

<PAGE>

Operative Documents and the payment in full or cancellation of the Funded
Amounts.

          SECTION 7.8 Alternative Rate Advances Substituted for Affected LIBOR
Advances. If (i) the obligation of any Funding Party to make or maintain any
LIBOR Advances has been suspended pursuant to Section 7.6 or (ii) any Funding
Party has demanded compensation under Section 7.7, and the Lessee shall, by at
least 5 Business Days' prior notice to such Funding Party through the Agent,
have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Funding
Party, then, unless and until such Funding Party notifies the Lessee that the
circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no
longer apply:

          (a) all Funded Amounts which would otherwise be made by such Funding
     Party as LIBOR Advances shall be made instead as Alternative Rate Advances
     (in all cases interest, Yield and principal on such Funded Amounts shall be
     payable contemporaneously with the related Funded Amounts of the other
     Funding Parties), and

          (b) after each of its LIBOR Advances has been repaid, all payments of
     principal which would otherwise be applied to repay such LIBOR Advances
     shall be applied to repay its Alternative Rate Advances instead.

          SECTION 7.9 Compensation. Upon the request of any Funding Party,
delivered to the Lessee and the Agent, the Lessee shall pay to such Funding
Party such amount or amounts as shall compensate such Funding Party for any
loss, cost or expense incurred by such Funding Party as a result of:

          (a) any payment or prepayment of LIBOR Advances on a date other than
the last day of an Rent Period for such LIBOR Advance; or

          (b) if the Funding Parties have permitted prepayment of any LIBOR
Advances, any failure by the Lessee to prepay such LIBOR Advances on the date
for such prepayment specified in the relevant notice of prepayment hereunder; or

          (c) any failure by the Lessee to consummate a Funding on the date
specified in the applicable Funding Request;

such compensation to include, without limitation, as applicable: (A) an amount
equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the amount of interest which would have
accrued on the amount so paid or prepaid or not prepaid or funded for the period
from the date of such payment, prepayment or failure to prepay or to take
funding to the last day of the then current Rent Period for such LIBOR Advance
(or, in the case of a failure to prepay or to take


                                       52

<PAGE>

funding, the Rent Period for such LIBOR Advance which would have commenced on
the date of such failure to prepay or to take funding) at the applicable rate of
interest or yield for such LIBOR Advance provided for herein over (y) the amount
of interest or yield (as reasonably determined by such Funding Party) such
Funding Party would have paid on deposits in Dollars of comparable amounts
having terms comparable to such period placed with it by leading banks in the
London interbank market.

          SECTION 7.10 Limitation on Certain Payment Obligations. (a) Each
Funding Party or the Agent shall make written demand on the Lessee for
indemnification or compensation pursuant to Section 7.7, 7.8 or 7.9 hereof no
later than 120 days after the event giving rise to the claim for indemnification
or compensation occurs.

          (b) In the event that any Funding Party or the Agent fails to give the
Lessee notice within the applicable time limitation prescribed in (a) above, the
Lessee shall have no obligation to pay such claim for compensation or
indemnification hereunder.

          SECTION 7.11 End of Term Indemnity. In the event that at the end of
the Lease Term (i) the Lessee elects the option set forth in Section 14.6 of the
Lease, and (ii) after the Lessor receives the sales proceeds from the Leased
Property under Section 14.6 or 14.7 of the Lease, together with the Lessee's
payment of the Recourse Deficiency Amount, the Lessor shall not have received
the entire Lease Balance, then, within 90 days after the end of the Lease Term,
the Lessor or the Agent may obtain, at the Lessee's sole cost and expense, a
report from the Appraiser (or, if the Appraiser is not available, another
appraiser reasonably satisfactory to the Lessor or the Agent, as the case may
be, and approved by the Lessee, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld)
in form and substance satisfactory to the Lessor and the Agent (the "Report") to
establish the reason for any decline in value of the Leased Property from the
Lease Balance. The Lessee shall promptly reimburse the Lessor for the amount
equal to such decline in value to the extent below the Lease Balance to the
extent that the Report indicates that such decline was due to

          (w) extraordinary use, failure to maintain, to repair, to restore, to
     rebuild or to replace, failure to comply with all Applicable Laws, failure
     to use, workmanship, method of installation or removal or maintenance,
     repair, rebuilding or replacement, or any other cause or condition within
     the power of the Lessee to control or effect resulting in the Building
     failing to be an office, store or warehouse of the


                                       53

<PAGE>

     type and quality contemplated by the Appraisal (excepting in each case
     ordinary wear and tear), or

          (x) any Alteration made to, or any rebuilding of, the Leased Property
     or any part thereof by the Lessee, or

          (y) any restoration or rebuilding carried out by the Lessee or any
     condemnation of any portion of the Leased Property pursuant to Article X of
     the Lease to the extent not covered by insurance or condemnation proceeds
     applied to the Lease Balance, or

          (z) any use of the Leased Property or any part thereof by the Lessee
     other than as permitted by the Lease, or any act or omission constituting a
     breach of any requirement, condition, restriction or limitation set forth
     in the Existing Lease.

                                    SECTION 8

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

this Master Agreement and any of the Operative Documents, the transfer of any
Land to the Lessor as provided herein, any disposition of any interest of the
Lessor in the Leased Property, the purchase and sale of the Notes, payment
therefor and any disposition thereof and shall be and continue in effect
notwithstanding any investigation made by any party hereto or to any of the
other Operative Documents and the fact that any such party may waive compliance
with any of the other terms, provisions or conditions of any of the Operative
Documents.

     SECTION 8.2 Notices. Unless otherwise specified herein, all notices,
requests, demands or other communications to or upon the respective parties

auditors and (viii) to any actual or proposed participant, assignee or other
transferee of all or part of its rights hereunder which has agreed in writing to

and fixtures, purported to be leased to Lessee pursuant to the Lease is
hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Property."

     In connection with this opinion, we have assumed that:

          (a) Lessee is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of Georgia, and is duly authorized to transact
business in each jurisdiction where its activities or presence required that it
be so qualified; and

          (b) Lessee has all requisite authority to lease the Property, to
execute the Lease Documents, and to perform its obligations under the Lease
Documents; and

          (c) The execution, delivery and performance of the Lease Documents by
Lessee are within the corporate powers of Lessee and have been duly authorized
by all necessary action by or on behalf of Lessee; and

          (d) Each individual executing the Lease Documents has the requisite
legal capacity to execute and be bound by (or cause the entity for which such
individual is signing to be bound by) the agreements contained in such
documents; and

          (e) The Lease Documents have been duly and validly executed and
delivered by Lessee in the form submitted to us; and

          (f) Each of the parties to the Lease Documents other than Lessee has
duly and validly executed and delivered each Lease Document to which such party
is a signatory, and each Lease Document (and each provision of the Lease
Documents which is not governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of Georgia) are such parry's legal, valid and binding obligations,
enforceable against such party in accordance with their respective terms. Each
Lease Document and each provision of the Lease Documents which is not governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia are
Lessee's legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable against Lessee in
accordance with their respective terms. If all or any provisions of the Lease
Documents are determined to be governed by and required to be construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, the Lease Documents or such
provisions are legal, valid and enforceable against each of the parties thereto
in accordance with their respective terms under Florida law; and

          (g) Lessor is a limited partnership duly organized, validly existing,
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Connecticut; Agent is a
Georgia banking corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Georgia; and the Lease Documents have
been duly authorized and delivered by Lessor and Agent to the extent

                                                               ATLANTA 4161174.2

required and constitute the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of
Lessor and Agent, respectively; and each of Lessor and Agent has the requisite
power and authority to perform its respective obligations under the Lease
Documents; and each of Lessor and Agent has all requisite governmental
certificates of authority, licenses, permits, consents, qualifications, and
documentation to engage in the transaction covered by this opinion; and

          (h) The Agent has acted and will act in good faith and without notice
of any defense against enforcement of rights created by, or adverse claim to any
property pledged as part of, the transaction contemplated by the Lease
Documents. The Agent has complied with all laws applicable to it that affect the
transaction; and

          (i) The transaction complies with any test required by law of good
faith or fairness. Each party will act in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Lease Documents; and

          (j) No discretionary act of the Lessee or on its behalf will be taken
after the date of the transaction if such act might result in a violation of law
or breach or default under any agreement, decree, writ, judgment or court order.
The Lessee will obtain all permits and governmental approvals and take all other
actions which are both (i) relevant to performance of the Lease Documents and
(ii) required in the future under applicable law; and

          (k) Any documents to which the Lessee is a party or by which the
Lessee is bound (other than the Lease Documents) will be enforced as written;
and

          (l) With respect to the transaction and the Lease Documents, there has
been no mutual mistake of fact and there exists no fraud or duress; and

          (m) Lessee has or would be deemed to have as of the date hereof, and
at the time of the execution and delivery of the Lease Documents, valid title
to, or an interest in, and the unrestricted right to convey, lease or encumber
the Property; and

          (n) Lessee has received, or prior to or concurrently with the
execution and delivery of the Lease Documents will receive, the value and other
consideration recited to be received by it in the Lease Documents; and

          (o) In the event that any party to any of the Lease Documents seeks to
maintain any action, suit or proceeding in the courts of the State of Georgia to
enforce any provision of any of the Lease Documents, such person, if required at
such time to hold a certificate of authority to transact business as a foreign
corporation in the State of Georgia, will have obtained such a certificate prior
to commencing such action, suit or proceeding; and

          (p) The interest currently provided for in (or any other interest
allowed or to be subsequently designated under the terms of) the Lease or the
Lease Documents, together with all other charges in the nature of interest
payable with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Lease Documents,
will not at any time (whether due to prepayment, acceleration, lack of
borrowing, or otherwise) exceed five percent (5%) per month as prohibited by
O.C.G.A. Section 7-4-18 and that no such interest or charges constitute
precomputed interest within the meaning of O.C.G.A. Section 7-4-2(b); and

          (q) There is no payment of, or agreement for the payment of, interest
on unpaid interest under the Lease Documents in violation of O.C.G.A. Section
7-4-17; and

          (r) The parties to the Lease Documents and their successors and
assigns will (i) act in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner in
the exercise of any rights or enforcement of any remedies under the Lease
Documents; (ii) not engage in any conduct in the exercise of such rights or
enforcement of such remedies that would constitute other than fair dealing; and
(iii) comply with all requirements of applicable procedural and substantive law
in exercising any rights or enforcing any remedies under the Lease Documents;
and

          (s) The exercise of any rights or enforcement of any remedies under
the Lease Documents would not be unconscionable, result in a breach of the peace
or otherwise be contrary to public policy.

     In rendering this opinion we have also assumed that: all documents
submitted to us as originals are authentic; all signatures on documents
submitted to us are genuine; all documents, including but not limited to certain
of the Lease Documents, submitted to us as certified or conformed copies,
photocopies or telecopies are identical to the original documents; the
"black-lining" on drafts of Lease Documents received by us since the first draft
we reviewed have accurately reflected all changes since the draft reviewed; the
Lease Documents accurately reflect the complete understanding of the parties
with respect to the transactions contemplated thereby and the rights and
obligations of the parties thereunder; and that all certificates, and all
telegraphic and telephonic confirmations, given by public officials or by third
parties referred to herein have been properly given and are accurate. We have
also assumed that the terms and conditions of the Lease as reflected in the
Lease Documents have not been amended, modified or supplemented, directly or
indirectly, by any other agreement or understanding of the parties or waiver of
any of the material provisions of the Lease Documents. All references herein to
the Lease Documents (or other documents identified herein) shall be deemed to
refer only to the body of such documents exclusive of other documents referred
to or incorporated by reference therein.

     We call your attention to the fact, and all parties are aware that, Lessee
is not and has never been the owner of record of any interest in the Property
other than under the Lease, and you have

<PAGE>

December 30, 1999
Page 5


asked us to render an opinion on the assumption that the Lease would be deemed
to constitute a conveyance of fee simple title to the Property to Lessee, and a
conveyance of security title and a security interest in the Property from Lessee
to Lessor to secure an obligation in excess of $250,000.00. We render no opinion
herein as to whether the lease would be so interpreted, or as to whether title
to the Property would be deemed to be in Lessor or Lessee, or with respect to
the effect of the determination of such title matters on the enforceability of
the Lease Documents or any of the other matters addressed herein.

     All assumptions stated in this letter are made with your permission and
without investigation, computation or other action on our part to confirm the
validity of any such assumptions. To the extent that any of such assumptions are
not true, the same are made hypothetically to permit the rendering of this
opinion.

     We have not made or undertaken to make any investigation of the state of
title to the Property, and we express no opinion with respect to the title of
the Property or with respect to the existence or perfection (or continuation of
perfection) of any security title, lien, security interest, encumbrance,
usufruct or leasehold interest purported to be created by the Lease or any other
Lease Document. In addition, we express no opinion as to the priority of any
security title, lien, security interest, encumbrance, usufruct or leasehold
interest purported to be created by the Lease or any other Lease Document.

     Based on the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, limitation,
qualifications and exceptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

     1. Each of the Lease Documents, insofar as it is governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, is a legal, valid and
binding obligation of Lessee, enforceable by Lessor against Lessee in accordance
with its terms, except that: (a) the enforceability of the Lease Documents is
subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement and
moratorium laws and other laws from time to time in effect relating to or
affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' and lessor's rights and
remedies (including, without limitation, the effect of the Federal Bankruptcy
Code in its entirety, including matters of contract rejection, fraudulent
conveyance and obligation, turn-over, preference, equitable subordination,
automatic stay, conversion of a non-recourse obligation into a recourse
obligation, substantive consolidation and proofs of claim, and state laws
regarding fraudulent transfers, obligations and conveyances, including O.C.G.A.
Section 18-2-20, et seq., and state receivership laws); (b) the enforceability
of the Lease Documents is subject to the effect of the exercise of customary
principles, judicial decisions, and laws governing, limiting or affecting
equitable remedies or relief generally (including, without limitation, matters
of public policy) whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity
(including, without limitation, principles governing the availability of
specific performance, injunctive relief or other traditional equitable remedies,
principles affording traditional
<PAGE>

Page 6


equitable defenses [e.g., waiver, laches and estoppel], good faith and fair
dealing, reasonableness. materiality of breach, impracticability or
impossibility of performance, the effect of obstruction, failure to perform or
otherwise to act in accordance with an agreement by any person other than
Lessee, the effect of Section 1-102(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code, and
unconscionability); (c) certain remedies, waivers, and other provisions of the
Lease Documents may not be enforceable under applicable laws and judicial
decisions (in addition to those referred to in subparagraphs (a) and (b)
immediately above) and certain equitable or specific remedies may be unavailable
under such laws and decisions; however, it is our opinion that such laws and
decisions (other than those referred to in subparagraphs (a) and (b) immediately
above) do not make the remedies and procedures which will be afforded to the
holder of the Lease Documents inadequate for the realization of the substantive
benefits intended to be provided by the Lease Documents to the holder thereof,
except for the economic consequences, if any, resulting from any delay caused by
such applicable laws and judicial decisions and so long as such remedies and
procedures are exercised in compliance with applicable laws and judicial
decisions of the State of Georgia relating to the exercise of such remedies and
procedures.

     2. Assuming that the principal amount actually disbursed to Lessee or which
would be deemed to have been actually disbursed to Lessee for usury purposes
exceeds $250,000.00, none of the payments of interest provided for in the Lease
Documents violates the usury laws of the State of Georgia.

     3. The execution and delivery of the Lease Documents by Lessee and the
performance by Lessee of its obligations thereunder, do not conflict with or
result in a violation of any law, rule or regulation of the State of Georgia or
the United States of America to which Lessee or its assets are subject which a
lawyer using customary due diligence would reasonably recognize as applicable to
the execution and delivery of the Lease Documents or the performance by Lessee
of its obligations thereunder. For purposes of this opinion, "law, rule or
regulation" includes only those laws, rules or regulations which either prohibit
performance by Lessee under the Lease Documents or subject Lessee to a fine,
penalty or other similar sanction.

     This opinion is based upon and subject to the qualifications, limitations
and exceptions set forth below:

     A. Without limiting the generality of, or implying any other limitation of,
any other assumption, qualification, limitation or exception set forth in this
opinion letter, our opinion set forth herein is subject to each of the following
exceptions:

          (i) The effect and possible unenforceability of contractual provisions
     providing for choice of governing law; or

<PAGE>

December 30, 1999

          (ii) The possible unenforceability of provisions purporting to waive
     certain rights of guarantors or indemnitors (whether expressed as waivers,
     consents or otherwise); or

          (iii) The possible unenforceability of provisions requiring
     indemnification for, or providing exculpation, release or exemption from
     liability for, action or inaction, to the extent such action or inaction
     involves negligence or willful misconduct of the person or entity
     indemnified (or of any agent, contractor, employee, representative,
     partner, officer, director or shareholder of such person or entity) or to
     the extent otherwise contrary to public policy; or

          (iv) The possible unenforceability of provisions purporting to require
     arbitration of disputes; or

          (v) The possible unenforceability of provisions prohibiting
     competition, the solicitation or acceptance of customers, of business
     relationships or of employees, the use or disclosure of information, or
     other activities in restraint of trade; or

          (vi) The possible unenforceability of provisions imposing increased
     interest rates or late payment charges upon delinquency in payment or
     default or providing for liquidated damages, or for premiums on prepayment,
     acceleration, redemption, cancellation, or termination, to the extent any
     such provisions are deemed to be penalties or forfeitures; or

          (vii) The possible unenforceability of waivers or advance consents
     that have the effect of waiving statutes of limitation, marshaling of
     assets or similar requirements, or as to the jurisdiction of courts, the
     venue of actions, the right to jury trial, defenses or rights of
     subrogation, or, in certain cases, notice; or

          (viii) The possible unenforceability of provisions that waivers or
     consents by a party may not be given effect unless in writing or in
     compliance with particular requirements or that a person's course of
     dealing, course of performance, or the like or failure or delay in taking
     actions may not constitute a waiver of related rights or provisions or that
     one or more waivers may not under certain circumstances constitute a waiver
     of other matters of the same kind; or

          (ix) The effect of course of dealing, course of performance, or the
     like, that would modify the terms of an agreement or the respective rights
     or obligations of the parties under an agreement; or

<PAGE>

December 30, 1999

          (x) The possible unenforceability of provisions that enumerated
     remedies are not exclusive or that a party has the right to pursue multiple

     cumulative; or

          (xi) The effect of O.C.G.A. Section 13-1-11 on provisions relating to
     attorneys fees; or

          (xii) The possible unenforceability of provisions that determinations
     by a party or a party's designee are conclusive; or

          (xiii) The possible unenforceability of provisions permitting

          (xiv) The possible unenforceability of provisions that the provisions
     of an agreement are severable; or

          (xv) The effect of laws requiring mitigation of damages; or

          (xvi) The possible unenforceability of provisions permitting the
     exercise, under certain circumstances, of rights without notice or without
     providing opportunity to cure failures to perform; or

          (xvii) The effect of agreements as to rights of set off otherwise than
     in accordance with the applicable law; or

          (xviii) The possible unenforceability of any provision contained in
     the Lease Documents purporting to allow the holder to accelerate the
     maturity of the indebtedness evidenced and secured thereby or the sums
     required to be paid thereunder without notice to Lessee: or

          (xix) The possible unenforceability of any provision contained in the
     Lease Documents relating to the appointment of a receiver, or

          (xx) The possible unenforceability of any provision contained in the

     to the possession or control of cash, deposits, instruments or other
     property which relate to or constitute a portion of the Property after the
     appointment of a receiver; or

          (xxi) We render no opinion with respect to the laws, ordinances,
     regulations or rules of any county, city or other political subdivision of

     rather than a collateral assignment; or

          (xxv) The possible unenforceability of any "usury savings provisions"

     payable in connection with the Lease Documents or the transactions
     contemplated in the Lease Documents; or

          (xxx) The possible unenforceability of any provision requiring

     or rights relating thereto, including, without limitation, the
     assignability of any licenses, permits, approvals, bonds, insurance or

     Property is not assignable by reason of its nature, its terms or of laws,
     ordinances, rules, regulations or judicial or administrative decisions or
     otherwise; or

          (xxxvi) The possible unenforceability of the provisions of Section

     to the qualifications, limitations and exceptions set forth above):

               (A) The effect of a termination of the Lease on the obligations
          of Lessee under the Lease and the other Lease Documents. Such

     B. Our opinion as to the validity, enforceability and binding effect of any
assignment of rents contained in the Lease Documents is further qualified by the
effect of the order dated January 11, 1993, in the case styled In Re: Polo Club
Apartments Associates Limited Partnership f/k/a Ashlev Creek Associates. Limited
Partnership, United States Bankruptcy Court, Northern District of Atlanta
Division, Chapter 7 Case No. A89-14227, in which the court stated that a
"security deed grantee out of possession is not presently entitled to receive
rents merely upon the occurrence or existence of a default. The grantor being in
possession and receiving rents may not be disturbed in his right to the rents by
the security deed grantee until he takes possession or takes other appropriate
action to subject the land and rents to the debt. This means that affirmative
action or positive steps must be taken by the security deed grantee before there
is a present right to receive rents under such written rent assignment." As a
result of this order, it is uncertain whether the holder of the Lease Documents
has the right to take the rents from the Property pursuant to the Lease
Documents prior to taking possession of such Property, and our opinion is
limited and qualified accordingly.

     C. With respect to the validity, enforceability and binding effect of the
environmental indemnity and hold harmless agreements by Lessee included in the
Lease Documents in favor of the holder thereof, we have relied upon a number of
federal court decisions, although we note that some cases arising under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA")
support the proposition that such private indemnity agreements are not
enforceable. In addition, we note that CERCLA and other environmental laws have
sometimes been interpreted to impose independent liability on lenders in a
manner that may under certain circumstances be beyond the scope of the Lease
Documents.

     D. We note that the Lease Documents contain provisions (including, without
limitation, Section 2.4 of the Master Agreement and Article XI of the Lease)
which purport to require the transactions contemplated in the Lease Documents to
be characterized as a Lease Transaction for some purposes and as a loan
transaction for some purposes, and purport to characterize the Lease as a
mortgage, deed to secure debt or deed of trust. Without limitation of any other
assumption, limitation, qualification or exception set forth herein, we render
no opinion with respect to the effect or enforceability of any such provision,
or with respect to the effect of the inclusion of such provision on other
provisions of the Lease Documents which might otherwise be enforceable in the
absence of such provisions. We render no opinion with respect to whether the
transactions contemplated in the Lease Documents will be characterized as a
lease or as a loan, or with respect to whether the Lease Documents will be
characterized as a lease, mortgage, deed to secure debt, deed of trust or other
security instrument. Further, if the transactions contemplated in the Lease
Documents are characterized as a lease and the Lease Documents are themselves
characterized as a lease, we render no opinion with respect to any provisions of
the Lease Documents which would be applicable with respect to a loan transaction
(including, without limitation, any provisions purporting to create a right of
foreclosure or power of sale or any other remedies for the enforcement of any
lien or security title in the property); and, if the transactions contemplated
in the Lease
<PAGE>

December 30, 1999
Page 12


Documents are characterized as a loan, we render no opinion with respect to any
provisions of the Lease Documents which would be applicable with respect to a
lease transaction (including, without limitation, any of the lease remedies set
forth in the Lease such as, but without limitation, any right to terminate the
Lease or to relet the Property). Further, we render no opinion regarding the
treatment for federal or state tax purposes of the transactions in the Lease
Documents.

     E. This opinion is based solely on the laws of the State of Georgia in
force and effect on the date hereof, and, notwithstanding any statement is
implication to the contrary, we express no opinion with regard to any matter
which may be governed or purport to be governed, or otherwise affected, by the
laws of any state or jurisdiction other than the State of Georgia. No opinion is
given herein with respect to any property (including, without limitation, the
Property) outside of the State of Georgia which may be the subject of or may be
referenced in the Lease Documents, or with respect to the effect of the Lease
Documents on or with respect to such property. Without limitation of the
foregoing, no opinion is given herein with respect to the conveyance or creation
of any lien or interest in or the exercise of remedies with respect to the
Property.

     Any and all opinions rendered by this firm in this opinion letter are
limited to the matters expressly set forth in Paragraphs 1 through 3 hereinabove
following the phrase "we are of the opinion that"; and no opinion is implied or
to be inferred beyond the matters expressly so stated. This opinion is given as
of the date hereof, and we expressly decline any undertaking to revise or update
this opinion subsequent to the date hereof or to advise you of any matter
arising subsequent to the date hereof, which would cause us to modify this
opinion, in whole or in part. This opinion has been given solely for the benefit
of the addressee hereof, and no other person or entity shall be entitled to rely
hereon without the express written consent of this firm. This opinion is given
solely with respect to the transaction referred to hereinabove and may not be
relied upon by any person or entity except with respect to that particular
transaction. In addition, without first obtaining the express written consent of

RE: EQUIFAX INC. LEASE TRANSACTION

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I am Corporate Vice President and General Counsel of Equifax Inc., a
Georgia corporation ("Lessee"), and I am rendering this opinion to you at the
request of Lessee.

     1. In connection with this opinion, I have examined, or caused other
in-house counsel licensed by the State Bar of Georgia to examine, copies of each
of the following documents:

          (1) Master Agreement, dated as of December 30, 1999 (the "Master
     Agreement"), among Lessee, Prefco VI Limited Partnership ("Lessor"), and
     SunTrust Bank, Atlanta ("Agent");

          (2) Lease Agreement, dated as of December 30, 1999 by and between
     Lessor and Lessee;

          (3) Consent and Agreement of Lessee to Assignment of Leases and Rents
     by the Lessor;

          (4) UCC Financing Statements to be filed in the States of Georgia and
     Florida; and

          (5) Operative Guaranty dated December 30, 1999 (the "Guaranty"), from
     Lessee in favor of Lessor and Agent.

<PAGE>

December 30, 1999
Page 2 of 3


The documents listed in subparagraphs (1) through (5) above are sometimes
collectively referred to in this letter as the "Lease Documents."

     2. Acting as such counsel, I have examined, or caused to be examined, the
Lease Documents and those other documents and matters of law that we have deemed
necessary in order to express the opinions set forth below. All references to
the Lease Documents shall be deemed to refer only to the body of those
instruments, exclusive of other instruments referred to or incorporated by
reference in the Lease Documents. In all such examinations, I have assumed with
your permission and without any investigation whatsoever: that the Lease
Documents accurately reflect the complete understanding of the parties with
respect to the transactions contemplated in the Lease Documents, and the rights
and obligations of the parties under the Lease Documents; that the terms and
conditions of the Lease Documents have not been modified, amended or
supplemented, directly or indirectly, by any other agreement or understanding of
the parties or waiver of any of the material provisions of the Lease Documents;
that all documents submitted to us as originals are authentic; that all
signatures on documents (other than the signatures-of-the Lessee on the Lease
Documents) submitted to us are genuine; that all copies of documents submitted
to us as certified or conformed copies, photocopies or telecopies are identical
to the originals; and that all certificates, and all telegraphic and telephonic
confirmations, given by public officials or by third parties referred to in this
letter have been properly given and are accurate.

     3. Based on the actions and assumptions set forth above, and in reliance on
these actions and assumptions, and subject to the assumptions, limitations,
qualifications, and exceptions set forth in this letter, I am of the opinion
that:

          (1) Lessee is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
     good standing under the laws of the State of Georgia; and

          (2) The execution, delivery and performance of the Lease Documents by
     Lessee are within the corporate power of Lessee. Lessee has duly authorized
     the execution and delivery of the Lease Documents, and Michael Schirk and
     William F. Gastel are authorized to execute and deliver the Lease Documents
     on behalf of Lessee; and

          (3) The Lease Documents have been duly and validly executed and
     delivered by Lessee.

     4. This opinion is based solely on the laws of the State of Georgia in
force and effect on the date of this letter, and I express no opinion with
regard to any matter that may be governed or purport to be governed by the laws
of any state or jurisdiction other than the State of Georgia.

     5. Any and all opinions rendered by me in this letter are limited to the
matters expressly set forth as my "opinion" in subparagraphs (1) through (3) of
Paragraph 3 above, and no opinion is implied or to be inferred beyond those
matters. This opinion is given as of the date indicated at the top of the first
page of this letter, and I expressly decline any undertaking to revise or update
this opinion subsequent to that date, or to advise you of any matter arising
after that date that would cause me to modify this opinion in whole or in part.
This opinion has been given solely for the benefit of the addressees of this
letter, and no other person or entity shall be entitled to rely on this opinion
without my express written consent. In addition, without first obtaining my
express written consent, the addressees shall not provide this opinion letter,
or any copy or extract of this letter, to any other person or entity, including
any governmental unit or agency, except that a copy may be provided to any
regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over any of the addressees,

required by law.

Very truly yours,

                   FORM OF OPINION OF LOCAL COUNSEL FOR LESSEE

                                                                __________, 199_

To the Lessor, the Agent and the
Lender as defined in the Master
Agreement hereinafter referred to

            Re: Equifax Inc. Lease Transaction

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as special Florida counsel to Equifax Inc., a Georgia
corporation (the "Lessee"), in connection with the transactions contemplated by
the Master Agreement. We have examined and are familiar with originals of or
copies identified to our satisfaction of (i) the Master Agreement, dated as of
_________________, 1999 (as heretofore amended, the "Master Agreement"), among
Equifax Inc. ("Equifax"), Prefco VI Limited Partnership, as Lessor, the
financial institutions party thereto, as Lenders and SunTrust Bank, Atlanta, as
Agent; and (ii) the other Operative Documents listed on Schedule A hereto
(together with the Master Agreement, the "Subject Documents"). In addition, we
have examined and are familiar with such legal matters as we have deemed
necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion. Capitalized terms used in
this opinion and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings
specified in Appendix A to the Master Agreement. This opinion is being furnished
to you at the request of the Lessee pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(xi) of the Master
Agreement, in connection with the Closing Date related to the Leased Property
covered by the Subject Documents.

     In rendering this opinion we have assumed: (a) the genuineness of the
signatures on all documents and instruments and the authenticity of all
documents submitted as originals, and the conformity to originals of all
documents submitted as photostatic or certified copies; (b) that each of the
parties to the Subject Documents has all the legal capacity, power and authority
required for it to enter into the Subject Documents to which it is a party, and
to perform its respective obligations thereunder; (c) that all such matters have
received any corporate

<PAGE>

or other authorization required by any applicable charter, by-law, law or
regulation; (d) the due execution and delivery of the Subject Documents by each
of the parties thereto; and (e) that there are no agreements between any parties
that would alter the agreements set forth in the Subject Documents. To the
extent that the assumptions in clauses (b) and (c) relate to any laws or
regulations, such assumptions relate only to those laws and regulations as to
which we are not opining herein.

     Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

     1. The Lessee is duly qualified as a foreign corporation authorized to do
business in, and is in good standing in, the State of Florida (the "State").

     2. Neither the Agent nor any of the Lenders is required under the laws of
the State to qualify as a foreign corporation, foreign trust company or
otherwise in the State, or to file any designation for service of process in the
State, solely as a result of its execution, delivery and performance of the
Subject Documents to which it is a party.

     3. Each of the Mortgage, the Lease and the Assignment of Leases and Rents
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the parties thereto
enforceable against each such party in accordance with the terms thereof, except
as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and
similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general equitable
principles.

     4. The Lease is in form sufficient under the laws of the State to demise to
the Lessee a valid leasehold interest in the Leased Property. The Lease, when
recorded with the Recording Office, will have been filed or recorded in all
public offices in the State in which such filing or recording is necessary to
provide constructive notice of the Lease on the Leased Property to third persons
and to establish of record the interest of the Lessor thereunder.

     5. If the transactions as provided for in the Lease are characterized as a
loan: (a) the Lease is in form sufficient under the laws of the State to create
a valid lien or security interest in favor of the Lessor in the Leased Property
described therein, and when recorded with _________________ (the "Recording
Office"), will have been filed or recorded in all public offices in the State in
which such filing or recording is necessary to perfect the interest of the
Lessor thereunder to the extent that such Leased Property constitutes real
estate. The Lease provides the Lessor with all remedies customarily obtained by
lenders in the State in connection with the type of loan and security provided
thereby. The foreclosure of the Lease would not


                                       -2-
<PAGE>

restrict, affect or impair the Lessee's liability with respect to the
obligations secured thereby or the Lessor's rights or remedies with respect to
the foreclosure or enforcement of any other security interests or liens securing
such obligations to the extent any deficiency remains unpaid after application
of the proceeds of the foreclosure.

     6. The Mortgage and the Assignment of Lease and Rents are in form
sufficient under the laws of the State to create valid liens or security
interests in favor of the Agent in the collateral described therein, and when
recorded with the Recording Office, will have been filed or recorded in all
public offices in the State in which such filing or recording is necessary to
perfect the interest of the Agent thereunder to the extent that such collateral
constitutes real estate. The Mortgage and the Assignment of Lease and Rents
provide the Agent with all remedies customarily obtained by lenders in the State
in connection with the type of loan and security provided for by the Loan
Agreement. The foreclosure of the Mortgage would not restrict, affect or impair
the Lessor's liability with respect to the obligations secured thereby or the
Lender's rights or remedies with respect to the foreclosure or enforcement of
any other security interests or liens securing such obligations to the extent
any deficiency remains unpaid after application of the proceeds of the
foreclosure.

     7. The law (statutory or otherwise) of the State does not require a
lienholder to make an election of remedies where such lienholder holds security
interests and liens on both the real and the personal property of a debtor or to
take recourse first or solely against or otherwise exhaust its remedies against
its collateral before otherwise proceeding to enforce against such debtor the
obligations of such debtor. Nothing in the laws of this State will hinder or
prevent enforcement in the State of the obligations of the Lessee or the
Guarantor under any of the Subject Documents to which it is, respectively, a
party.

     8. Under the laws of the State the priority of the Mortgage and the Lease
(if the transactions provided for in the Lease are characterized as a loan), to
the extent that such documents secure future advances and are a conveyance of or
create a lien against a real property interest, is determined by the respective
dates on which such documents are recorded.

     9. The UCC Financing Statements which are to be recorded or filed within
the State, are in form sufficient under the laws of the State for filing or
recording, and when recorded with the Recorder's Office and the Florida
Secretary of State will have been filed or recorded in all public offices in the
State in which such filing or recording is necessary to perfect the interests of
the Lessor and the Agent in the collateral described


                                      -3-

<PAGE>

therein to the extent the same can be perfected by filing or recording in the
State.

     10. Neither the execution and delivery of the Subject Documents, nor the
fulfillment of or the compliance with the provisions thereof, by the Lessor, the
Agent and the Lenders, results in a violation of, or contravenes any State
statute, law, rule, code, ordinance or regulation to which the Lessors, the
Agent or the Lender are subject.

     11. No approval, consent, or withholding of objection on the part of, or
filing or registration with, any governmental authority or regulatory body in
the State is required for the due execution and delivery of the Subject
Documents by the Lessor, the Agent or the Lenders, or the performance of the
transactions by the Lessor, the Agent or the Lender as contemplated thereby.

     12. Except for federal, state and local franchise, withholding and income
taxes, no taxes, fees or other charges imposed by the State, _______________
County or any other local governmental entity are payable by Lessor, the Agent
or the Lender solely as a result of (i) the issuance of the Notes on the date
hereof, (ii) the acquisition by the Lessor of the Leased Property, or (iii)
(except for nominal filing or recording fees payable at the time of filing or
recording) the execution, delivery, recordation or filing (where applicable) of
the Subject Documents and all other instruments delivered in connection with the
transactions contemplated thereby.

     13. The provisions in the Subject Documents concerning interest, Yield,
loan fees, late fees, prepayment premiums, default rate of interest and other
charges, including the methods of calculation and payment thereof, are not
usurious under, or otherwise violative of, the laws of the State.

     14. Under the laws of the State and local jurisdictions therein, there is
no statutory or regulatory lien in favor of any Governmental Authority for (a)
liability under the State environmental laws or regulations, or (b) damages
(including natural resource damages) arising from, or costs incurred by, such
Governmental Authority in response to the release of Hazardous Material into the
environment.

     15. Under the laws of the State and local jurisdictions therein, there are
no statutory or regulatory requirements relating to the transfer of ownership or
operation, sale or foreclosure of the Leased Property which require notification
of the State or the local jurisdiction of such transfer, sale or foreclosure,
certification that there has been no discharge of Hazardous Material or other
substances, or, in the event of a discharge, responsibility of the Lessor, the
Agent or the Lender,


                                       -4-

<PAGE>

as appropriate, for the undertaking of remedial measures to alleviate
environmental contamination resulting from such discharge.

     We are members of the Bar of the State. The opinions expressed herein are
limited exclusively to the laws of the State and the rules and regulations, if
any, under each of said laws. Certain of the Subject Documents purport to be
governed by laws of states other than the State. With your permission, we have
assumed for the purposes of this opinion (contrary to the express provisions
thereof) that such agreements would be governed by and construed and interpreted
in accordance with the laws of the State.

                                Very truly yours,

     THIS LOAN AGREEMENT (as it may be amended or modified from time to time in
accordance with the provisions hereof, this "Loan Agreement") dated as of
December 30, 1999 is between PREFCO VI LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Connecticut
general partnership, as Lessor and Borrower (the "Lessor"); SUNTRUST BANK,
ATLANTA and the other financial institutions which may from time to time become
party hereto as lenders (the "Lenders") and SUNTRUST BANK, ATLANTA, a Georgia
banking corporation as agent for the Lenders (the "Agent").

                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

     In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Master Agreement, the
Lease, this Loan Agreement and the other Operative Documents, (i) the Lessor
contemplates owning and leasing the Leased Property to the Lessee, (ii) the
Lessor wishes to obtain, and the Lenders are willing to provide, financing to
the Lessor, which financing will be secured by the Leased Property, and (iv) the
Lessee is willing to provide its Operative Guaranty to the Agent and the Funding
Parties.

     In consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto agree as follows:

     SECTION 1 DEFINITIONS; INTERPRETATION

     Unless the context shall otherwise require, capitalized terms used and not
defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in Appendix A hereto for
all purposes hereof; and the rules of interpretation set forth in Appendix A
hereto shall apply to this Loan Agreement.

     SECTION 2 AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS; REPAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT OF
LOANS

     SECTION 2.1 Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of
the Master Agreement, each Lender agrees to make term loans to the Lessor
("Loans") on the Closing Date, in the amounts required under Section 2.2 of the
Master Agreement. Each such Loan shall consist of an A Loan in the amount of
such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the A Percentage of the aggregate amount
to be funded by the Funding Parties on such date and a B Loan in the amount of
such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the B Percentage of the aggregate amount
to be funded by the Funding Parties on such date.

     SECTION 2.2 Notes. The A Loans made by each Lender to the Lessor shall be
evidenced by a note of the Lessor (an "A Note"), substantially in the form of
Exhibit A-1 with appropriate insertions, and the B Loans made by each Lender to
the Lessor

<PAGE>

shall be evidenced by a note of the Lessor (a "B Note") substantially in the
form of Exhibit A-2 with appropriate insertions, each duly executed by the
Lessor and payable to the order of such Lender and in a principal amount equal
to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the A Percentage of the aggregate
Commitments of the Funding Parties and the B Percentage of the aggregate
Commitments of the Funding Parties, respectively (or, if less, the aggregate
unpaid principal amount of all A Loans or B Loans, as the case may be, made by
such Lender to the Lessor). The Notes shall be dated the Closing Date and
delivered to the Agent in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Master Agreement.
Each Lender is hereby authorized to record the date and amount of each Loan made
by such Lender to the Lessor on the Notes, but the failure by such Lender to so
record such Loan shall not affect or impair any obligations with respect
thereto. Each Note shall (i) be stated to mature no later than the Lease
Termination Date and (ii) bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof
from time to time outstanding at the applicable interest rate per annum
determined as provided in, and payable as specified in, Section 2.4. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default under clause (g) of Article XII of the Lease,
or upon Acceleration as described in Section 4.3(b) hereof, each Note shall
automatically become due and payable in full.

     SECTION 2.3 Scheduled Principal Repayment. On the Lease Termination Date,
the Lessor shall pay the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans as of
such date.

     SECTION 2.4 Interest. (a) Each Loan shall bear interest during the initial
Rent Period ending January 14, 2000 at a rate per anum equal to the sum of the
Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate for 30-day periods plus 0.475% computed
using the actual number of days elapsed and a 360 day year and each subsequent
Rent Period at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Adjusted London
Interbank Offered Rate for such Rent Period plus 0.475%, computed using the
actual number of days elapsed and a 360 day year.

     (b) If all or a portion of the principal amount of or interest on the Loans
shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise), such overdue amount shall, without limiting the rights of the
Lenders under Section 5, bear interest at the Overdue Rate, in each case from
the date of nonpayment until paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

     (c) Following the date each Loan is made, interest on such Loan shall be
payable in arrears on each Payment Date with respect thereto.

     Party Balances and second, to the Lessor for application to its Funding
     Party Balance.

of the Master Agreement shall be made first, to the Lenders, pro rata, until
their Funding Party Balances have been paid in full, and second, to the Lessor

provided in this Section 3, any payment received by the Lessor which is to be

                                        5

<PAGE>

distributed to the Funding Parties in accordance with and to the extent provided
in this Section 3 on the next Business Day.

     SECTION 4 THE LESSOR; EXERCISE OF REMEDIES UNDER THE LEASE AND OPERATIVE
GUARANTY

     SECTION 4.1 Covenant of Lessor. So long as any Loan remains outstanding and
unpaid or any other amount is owing to any Lender with respect to its Funding
Party Balances, subject to Section 4.2, the Lessor will promptly pay all amounts
payable by it under this Loan Agreement and the Notes issued by it in accordance
with the terms hereof and thereof and shall duly perform each of its obligations
under this Loan Agreement and the Notes. The Lessor agrees to provide to the
Agent a copy of each estoppel certificate that the Lessor proposes to deliver
pursuant to Section 17.13 of the Lease at least five (5) days prior to such
delivery and to make any corrections thereto reasonably requested by the Agent
prior to such delivery. The Lessor shall keep the Leased Property free and clear
of all Lessor Liens. The Lessor shall not reject any sale of the Leased Property
pursuant to Section 14.6 of the Lease unless all of the Loans have been paid in
full or the Lenders consent to such rejection. In the event that the Lenders
reject any sale of the Leased Property pursuant to Section 14.6 of the Lease,
the Lessor agrees to take such action as the Lenders reasonably request to
effect a sale or other disposition of the Leased Property, provided that the
Lessor shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with such
sale or disposition.

     SECTION 4.2 Lessor Obligations Nonrecourse; Payment from Certain Lease and
Operative Guaranty Obligations and Certain Proceeds of Leased Property Only. All
payments to be made by the Lessor in respect of the Loans, the Notes and this
Loan Agreement shall be made only from certain payments received under the Lease
and the Operative Guaranty and certain proceeds of the Leased Property and only
to the extent that the Lessor or the Agent shall have received sufficient
payments from such sources to make payments in respect of the Loans in
accordance with Section 3. Each Lender agrees that it will look solely to such
sources of payments to the extent available for distribution to such Lender as
herein provided and that neither the Lessor nor the Agent is or shall be
personally liable to any Lender for any amount payable hereunder or under any
Note. Nothing in this Loan Agreement, the Notes or any other Operative Document
shall be construed as creating any liability (other than for willful misconduct,
gross negligence, misrepresentation or breach of contract (other than the
failure to make payments in respect of the Loans)) of the Lessor individually to
pay any sum or to perform any covenant, either express or implied, in this Loan
Agreement, the Notes or any other Operative Documents (all such liability, if
any, being expressly waived by each Lender) and


                                        6

<PAGE>

that each Lender, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, agrees in
the case of any liability of the Lessor hereunder or thereunder (except for such
liability attributable to its willful misconduct, gross negligence,
misrepresentation or breach of contract (other than the failure to make payments
in respect of the Loans)) that it will look solely to those certain payments
received under the Lease and the Operative Guaranty and those certain proceeds
of the Leased Property, provided, however, that the Lessor in its individual
capacity shall in any event be liable with respect to (i) the removal of
Lessor's Liens or involving its gross negligence, willful misconduct,
misrepresentation or breach of contract (other than the failure to make payments
in respect of the Loans) or (ii) failure to turn over payments the Lessor has
received in accordance with Section 3; and provided further that the foregoing
exculpation of the Lessor shall not be deemed to be exculpations of the Lessee,
the Guarantor or any other Person.

     SECTION 4.3 Exercise of Remedies Under the Lease and Operative Guaranty.

     (a) Event of Default. With respect to any Potential Event of Default as to
which notice thereof by the Lessor to the Lessee is a requirement to cause such
Potential Event of Default to become an Event of Default, the Lessor may at any
time in its discretion give such notice, provided that the Lessor agrees to give
such notice to such Lessee promptly upon receipt of a written request by any
Lender or the Agent.

     (b) Acceleration of Lease Balance. When an Event of Default exists, the
Lessor, upon the direction of the Required Funding Parties, shall exercise
remedies under Article XIII of the Lease and the Operative Guaranty to demand
payment in full of the Lease Balances by the Lessee or the Guarantor (the
"Acceleration"). Following the Acceleration, the Lessor shall consult with the
Lenders regarding actions to be taken in response to such Event of Default. The
Lessor (1) shall not, without the prior written consent of Required Funding
Parties and (2) shall (subject to the provisions of this Section), if so
directed by Required Lenders, do any of the following: commence eviction or
foreclosure proceedings, or make a demand under the Operative Guaranty, or file
a lawsuit against the Lessee under the Lease, or file a lawsuit against the
Guarantor under the Operative Guaranty, or sell the Leased Property, or exercise
other remedies against the Lessee or the Guarantor under the Operative Documents
in respect of such Event of Default; provided, however, that any payments
received by the Lessor shall be distributed in accordance with Section 3.
Notwithstanding any such consent, direction or approval by the Required Funding
Parties of any such action or omission, the Lessor shall not have any obligation
to follow such direction if the same would, in the


                                        7

<PAGE>

Lessor's reasonable judgment, require the Lessor to expend its own funds or
expose the Lessor to liability, expense, loss or damages unless and until the
Lenders advance to the Lessor an amount which is sufficient, in the Lessor's
reasonable judgment, to cover such liability, expense, loss or damage (excluding
the Lessor's pro rata share thereof, if any). Notwithstanding the foregoing, on
and after the Release Date, the Lenders shall have no rights to the Leased
Property or any proceeds thereof, the Lenders shall have no rights to direct or
give consent to any actions with respect to the Leased Property and the proceeds
thereof, the Lessor shall have absolute discretion with respect to such exercise
of remedies with respect to the Leased Property, and the proceeds thereof,
including, without limitation, any foreclosure or sale of the Leased Property,
and the Lessor shall have no liability to the Lenders with respect to the
Lessor's actions or failure to take any action with respect to the Leased
Property.

     SECTION 5 LOAN EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES

     SECTION 5.1 Loan Events of Default. Each of the following events shall
constitute a Loan Event of Default (whether any such event shall be voluntary or
involuntary or come about or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to or
in compliance with any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule
or regulation of any Governmental Authority) and each such Loan Event of Default
shall continue so long as, but only as long as, it shall not have been remedied:

          (a) Lessor shall fail to distribute in accordance with the provisions
     of Section 3 any amount received by the Lessor pursuant to the Lease, the
     Operative Guaranty or the Master Agreement within two (2) Business Days of
     receipt thereof if and to the extent that the Agent or the Lenders are
     entitled to such amount or a portion thereof; or

          (b) the Lessor shall fail to pay to the Agent, within two (2) Business
     Days of the Lessor's receipt thereof, any amount which the Lessee or the
     Guarantor is required, pursuant to the Operative Documents, to pay to the
     Agent but erroneously pays to the Lessor; or

          (c) failure by the Lessor to perform in any material respect any other
     covenant or condition herein or in any other Operative Document to which
     the Lessor is a party, which failure shall continue unremedied for thirty
     (30) days after receipt by the Lessor of written notice thereof from the
     Agent or any Lender; or

          (d) any representation or warranty of the Lessor contained in any
     Operative Document or in any certificate


                                        8

<PAGE>

     required to be delivered thereunder shall prove to have been incorrect in a
     material respect when made and shall not have been cured within thirty (30)
     days of receipt by the Lessor of written notice thereof from the Agent or
     any Lender; or

          (e) the Lessor or any General Partner shall become bankrupt or make an
     assignment for the benefit of creditors or consent to the appointment of a
     trustee or receiver; or a trustee or a receiver shall be appointed for the
     Lessor or any General Partner or for substantially all of its property
     without its consent and shall not be dismissed or stayed within a period of
     sixty (60) days; or bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceedings
     shall be instituted by or against the Lessor or any General Partner and, if
     instituted against the Lessor or any General Partner, shall not be
     dismissed or stayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or

          (f) any Event of Default under the Lease shall occur and be
     continuing.

     SECTION 5.2 Loan Event of Default; Remedies.

     (a) Upon the occurrence of a Loan Event of Default hereunder, (i) if such
event is a Loan Event of Default specified in clause (e) of Section 5.1 with
respect to the Lessor, automatically the outstanding principal of, and accrued
interest on, the Loans shall be immediately due and payable, and (ii) if such
event is any other Loan Event of Default, upon written request of the Required
Lenders, the Agent shall, by notice of default to the Lessor, declare the
outstanding principal of, and accrued interest on, the Loans to be immediately
due and payable, whereupon the outstanding principal of, and accrued interest
on, the Loans shall become immediately due and payable.

     (b) When a Loan Event of Default exists, the Agent may, and upon the
written instructions of the Required Lenders shall, exercise any or all of the
rights and powers and pursue any and all of the remedies available to it
hereunder, under the Notes, the Mortgage and the Assignment of Lease and Rents
and shall have and may exercise any and all rights and remedies available under
the Uniform Commercial Code or any provision of law. When a Loan Event of
Default exists, the Agent may, and upon the written instructions of the Required
Lenders shall, have the right to exercise all rights of the Lessor under the
Lease pursuant to the terms and in the manner provided for in the Mortgage and
the Assignment of Lease and Rents.

     (c) Except as expressly provided above, no remedy under this Section 5.2 is
intended to be exclusive, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to any
other remedy provided under


                                        9

<PAGE>

this Section 5.2 or under the other Operative Documents or otherwise available
at law or in equity. The exercise by the Agent or any Lender of any one or more
of such remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any
other remedy or remedies. No express or implied waiver by the Agent or any
Lender of any Loan Event of Default shall in any way be, or be construed to be,
a waiver of any future or subsequent Loan Event of Default. The failure or delay
of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any rights granted it hereunder upon
any occurrence of any of the contingencies set forth herein shall not constitute
a waiver of any such right upon the continuation or recurrence of any such
contingencies or similar contingencies and any single or partial exercise of any
particular right by the Agent or any Lender shall not exhaust the same or
constitute a waiver of any other right provided herein.

     SECTION 6 THE AGENT

     SECTION 6.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Loan Agreement and the
other Operative Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the
Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions
of this Loan Agreement and the other Operative Documents and to exercise such
powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Agent by the
terms of this Loan Agreement and the other Operative Documents, together with
such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Loan Agreement, the Agent shall not
have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or
any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this
Loan Agreement or any other Operative Document or otherwise exist against the
Agent.

     SECTION 6.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties
under this Loan Agreement and the other Operative Documents by or through agents
or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in- fact selected by it with
reasonable care.

     SECTION 6.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys- in-fact or Affiliates shall
be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such
Person under or in connection with this Loan Agreement or any other Operative
Document (except for its or such Person's own gross negligence or willful
misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of


                                       10

<PAGE>

the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by
the Lessor, the Guarantor or the Lessee or any officer thereof contained in this
Loan Agreement or any other Operative Document or in any certificate, report,
statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the
Agent under or in connection with, this Loan Agreement or any other Operative
Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability
or sufficiency of this Loan Agreement or any other Operative Document or for any
failure of the Lessor, the Guarantor or the Lessee to perform its obligations
hereunder or thereunder. The Agent shall not be under any obligation to any
Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of
the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Loan Agreement or any other
Operative Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the
Lessor, the Guarantor or the Lessee.

     SECTION 6.4 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note, writing, resolution, notice,
consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message,
statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine
and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or
Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without
limitation, counsel to the Lessor, the Guarantor or the Lessee), independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent may deem and
treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a
written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been
filed with the Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing
to take any action under this Loan Agreement or any other Operative Document
unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders
as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by
the Funding Parties against any and all liability and expense which may be
incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The
Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from
acting, under this Loan Agreement and the other Operative Documents in
accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the
Lenders and all future holders of the Notes.

     SECTION 6.5 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have
knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Loan Potential Event of Default or
Loan Event of Default hereunder unless the Agent has received notice from a
Lender referring to this Loan Agreement, describing such Loan Potential Event of
Default or Loan Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of
default". In the event that the Agent receives such


                                       11

<PAGE>

a notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agent shall
take such action with respect to such Loan Potential Event of Default or Loan
Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders;
provided that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions,
the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, with respect to such Loan Potential Event of Default or Loan
Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the
Lenders.

     SECTION 6.6 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly
acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations
or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including
any review of the affairs of the Lessor, the Guarantor or the Lessee, shall be
deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender.
Each Lender represents to the Agent that it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Lessor, the Guarantor and the Lessee and
made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Loan
Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under
this Loan Agreement and the other Operative Documents, and to make such
investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Lessor, the Guarantor and the Lessee. Except for notices, reports and other
documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent
hereunder, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations,
property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of
the Lessor, the Guarantor or the Lessee which may come into the possession of
the Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

     SECTION 6.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent in
its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Lessee or Guarantor
and without limiting the obligation of the Lessee or Guarantor to do so),
ratably according to the percentage each Lender's Loans bears to the total Loans
of all of the Lenders on the date on which indemnification is sought under this
Section 6.7, from and


                                       12

<PAGE>

against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind
whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time
following the payment of the Notes) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments,
this Loan Agreement, any of the other Operative Documents or any documents
contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under
or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be
liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
resulting solely from the Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
agreements in this Section 6.7 shall survive the payment of the Notes and all
other amounts payable hereunder.

     SECTION 6.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Agent and its Affiliates
may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of
business with the Lessor, the Guarantor or the Lessee as though the Agent were
not the Agent hereunder and under the other Operative Documents. With respect to
Loans made or renewed by it and any Note issued to it, the Agent shall have the
same rights and powers under this Loan Agreement and the other Operative
Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Agent, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include the Agent in its
individual capacity. Each Lender acknowledges that the Agent in its individual
capacity has had and continues to have other business relations and transactions
with the Lessee.

     SECTION 6.9 Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent upon 20 days'
notice to the Lenders. If the Agent shall resign as Agent under this Loan
Agreement and the other Operative Documents, then the Required Lenders shall
appoint a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be a
commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or any
State thereof or under the laws of another country which is doing business in
the United States of America and having a combined capital, surplus and
undivided profits of at least $100,000,000, whereupon such successor agent shall
succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent, and the term "Agent"
shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval,
and the former Agent's rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated,
without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any
of the parties to this Loan Agreement or any holders of the Notes. After any
retiring Agent's resignation as Agent, all of the provisions of this Section 6
shall inure to its benefit as to any


                                       13

<PAGE>

actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Loan
Agreement and the other Operative Documents.

     SECTION 7.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no
delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy,
power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges
herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers
and privileges provided by law.

     SECTION 7.4 Successors and Assigns. This Loan Agreement shall be binding

the Agent.

     SECTION 7.6 GOVERNING LAW. THIS LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES AND THE RIGHTS
AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE

designated in writing to the Lessor, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
all A Loans made by the Lender to, or for the benefit of, the Lessor, as
recorded either on the grid attached to this Note or in the records of the
Lender (and such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the

Note). The principal amount of each A Loan evidenced hereby shall be payable on
or prior to the Lease Termination Date as provided in the Loan Agreement.

     The Lessor further promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount
of this Note from time to time outstanding, payable as provided in the Loan

the Lessor to the Agent referred to in the Loan Agreement (including, without

waive presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice of dishonor, notice
of the existence, creation or nonpayment of all or any of the A Loans and all
other notices whatsoever.

     This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of Georgia, without regard to conflicts of law principles.

     ALL PAYMENTS AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS TO BE MADE OR PERFORMED BY THE LESSOR IN
RESPECT OF THE A LOANS AND THIS NOTE SHALL BE MADE ONLY FROM CERTAIN PAYMENTS
RECEIVED

ANY LIABILITY (OTHER THAN FOR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE,
MISREPRESENTATION OR BREACH OF CONTRACT (OTHER THAN THE FAILURE TO MAKE PAYMENTS
IN RESPECT OF THE LOANS)) OF LESSOR INDIVIDUALLY TO PAY ANY SUM OR TO PERFORM
ANY COVENANT, CONDITION, OBLIGATION OR WARRANTY EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN
THIS NOTE (ALL SUCH LIABILITY, IF ANY, BEING EXPRESSLY WAIVED BY THE LENDER AND
EACH OTHER HOLDER OF THIS NOTE BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF) AND THAT THE LENDER AND
EACH OTHER HOLDER OF THIS NOTE BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND
ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, AGREES IN THE CASE OF ANY LIABILITY OF LESSOR
HEREUNDER (OTHER THAN FOR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE,
MISREPRESENTATION OR BREACH OF CONTRACT (OTHER THAN THE FAILURE TO MAKE PAYMENTS
IN RESPECT OF THE LOANS)) that it will look solely to those certain payments
received under the Lease, the Guaranty Agreement and those certain proceeds of
the Leased Properties as provided in the Loan Agreement; provided, however, that
Lessor in its individual capacity shall in any event be liable with respect to
(i) the removal of Lessor Liens, (ii) its gross negligence, willful misconduct,
misrepresentation or breach of contract (other than the failure to make payments
in respect of the Loans)) or (iii) failure to turn over payments the Lessor has
received in accordance with the Loan Agreement; and provided further that the
foregoing exculpation of the Lessor shall not be deemed to be exculpations of
the Lessee, the Guarantor or any other Person.

                               OPERATIVE GUARANTY

     THIS OPERATIVE GUARANTY, dated as of December 30, 1999, is made by Equifax
Inc., a Georgia corporation (the "Guarantor").

                                   WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Guarantor as Lessee and Guarantor, PREFCO VI Limited
Partnership as Lessor, Atlantic Financial Group, Ltd., Atlantic Financial
Managers, Inc., and SunTrust Bank, Atlanta, as Agent and Lender, have entered
into that certain Master Agreement (Florida Property), dated as of December 30,
1999 (as it may be modified, amended or restated from time to time as and to the
extent permitted thereby, the "Master Agreement"; and, unless otherwise defined
herein, terms which are defined or defined by reference in the Master Agreement
(including Appendix A thereto) shall have the same meanings when used herein as
such terms have therein); and

     WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the Funding Parties consummating
the transactions to be consummated on the Closing Date that the Guarantor
execute and deliver this Operative Guaranty; and

     WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of the Guarantor that the transactions
contemplated by the Master Agreement be consummated on the Closing Date; and

     WHEREAS, this Operative Guaranty, and the execution, delivery and
performance hereof, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
of the Guarantor; and

     WHEREAS, this Operative Guaranty is offered by the Guarantor as an
inducement to the Funding Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated in
the Master Agreement, which transactions, if consummated, will be of benefit to
the Guarantor;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged by the Guarantor, the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

<PAGE>

     SECTION 1. Operative Guaranty. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally
guarantees the full and prompt payment when due, whether by acceleration or
otherwise, and at all times thereafter, and the full and prompt performance, of
all of the Liabilities (as hereinafter defined), including interest and earnings
on any such Liabilities whether accruing before or after any bankruptcy or
insolvency case or proceeding involving the Guarantor or any other Person and,
if interest or earnings on any portion of such obligations ceases to accrue by
operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding,
including such interest and yield as would have accrued on any such portion of
such obligations if such case or proceeding had not commenced, and further
agrees to pay all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
legal expenses actually incurred) actually paid or incurred by each of the
Funding Parties in endeavoring to collect the Liabilities, or any part thereof,
and in enforcing this Operative Guaranty. The term "Liabilities", as used
herein, shall mean all of the following, in each case howsoever created, arising
or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, joint or several, absolute or
contingent, or now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due: (i) all
amounts payable by the Lessee under the Lease (including, without limitation,
Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent and Recourse Deficiency Amounts), the Master
Agreement or any other Operative Document, and (ii) all principal of the Notes
and interest accrued thereon, Loans, accrued Yield and all additional amounts
and other sums at any time due and owing, and required to be paid, to the
Funding Parties under the terms of the Master Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the
Assignment of Lease and Rent, the Mortgage, the Notes or any other Operative
Document; provided, however, that whether or not a Loan Event of Default exists
that is not an Event of Default under the Lease, the Guarantor will not be
obligated to pay under this Operative Guaranty any amounts greater or earlier
than the Lessee would have had to pay, under the Lease, the Master Agreement and
the other Operative Documents assuming that such documents were enforced in
accordance with their terms (and without giving effect to any discharge or
limitation thereon resulting or arising by reason of the bankruptcy or
insolvency of the Lessee), plus all actual and reasonable costs of enforcing
this Operative Guaranty.

     By way of extension but not in limitation of any of its other obligations
hereunder, the Guarantor stipulates and agrees that in the event any foreclosure
proceedings are commenced and result in the entering of a foreclosure judgment,
any such foreclosure judgment, to the extent related to the Liabilities, shall
be treated as part of the Liabilities, and the Guarantor


                                        2

unconditionally guarantees the full and prompt payment of such judgment.

     SECTION 2. Bankruptcy. The Guarantor agrees that, in the event of the
dissolution, bankruptcy or insolvency of the Guarantor, or the inability or
failure of the Guarantor generally to pay debts as they become due, or an
assignment by the Guarantor for the benefit of creditors, or the commencement of
any case or proceeding in respect of the Guarantor under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar laws, and if such event shall occur at a time when any of
the Liabilities may not then be due and payable, the Guarantor will pay to the
Funding Parties forthwith the full amount which would be payable hereunder by
the Guarantor if all Liabilities were then due and payable.

     SECTION 3. Right of Set-Off. To secure all obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder, each Funding Party shall have a right to set-off, without demand or
notice of any kind, at any time and from time to time when any amount shall be
due and payable by the Guarantor hereunder against any and all balances,
credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of or in the Guarantor's name now or
hereafter, for any reason or purpose whatsoever, in the possession or control
of, or in transit to, any Funding Party or any agent or bailee for any Funding
Party, and apply any such amounts toward the payment of the Liabilities then due
in such order as the Agent may elect in accordance with the Operative Documents.

     SECTION 4. Continuing Operative Guaranty. This Operative Guaranty shall in
all respects be a continuing, absolute and unconditional Operative Guaranty of
prompt and complete payment and performance (and not merely of collection), and
shall remain in full force and effect (notwithstanding, without limitation, the
dissolution of the Guarantor) until the termination of the Commitments and the
full and final payment of all of the Liabilities.

     SECTION 5. Reinstatement. The Guarantor further agrees that, if at any time
all or any part of any payment theretofore applied to any of the Liabilities is
or must be rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever (including, without
limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Guarantor), such
Liabilities shall, for the purposes of this Operative Guaranty, to the extent
that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have
continued in existence, notwithstanding such application, and this Operative
Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may


                                        3

<PAGE>

be, as to such Liabilities, all as though such application had not been made.

     SECTION 6. Certain Actions. The Funding Parties may, from time to time at
their discretion and without notice to the Guarantor, take any or all of the
following actions: (a) retain or obtain (i) a security interest in the Lessee's
interests in the Lease and (ii) a lien or a security interest hereafter granted
by any Person upon or in any property, in each case to secure any of the
Liabilities or any obligation hereunder; (b) retain or obtain the primary or
secondary obligation of any obligor or obligors, in addition to the Guarantor,
with respect to any of the Liabilities; (c) extend or renew for one or more
periods (regardless of whether longer than the original period), or release or
compromise any obligation of the Guarantor hereunder or any obligation of any
nature of any other obligor (including, without limitation, the Lessor) with
respect to any of the Liabilities; (d) release or fail to perfect its Lien upon
or security interest in, or impair, surrender, release or permit any
substitution or exchange for, all or any part of any property securing any of
the Liabilities or any obligation hereunder, or extend or renew for one or more
periods (regardless of whether longer than the original period) or release or
compromise any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such
property; and (e) resort to the Guarantor for payment of any of the Liabilities,
regardless of whether the Agent or any other Person shall have resorted to any
property securing any of the Liabilities or any obligation hereunder or shall
have proceeded against any other obligor primarily or secondarily obligated with
respect to any of the Liabilities (all of the actions referred to in this clause
(e) being hereby expressly waived by the Guarantor).

     SECTION 7. Application. Any amounts received by any Funding Party from
whatever source on account of the Liabilities shall be applied by it toward the
payment of such of the Liabilities, and in such order of application, as is set
forth in the Operative Documents.

     SECTION 8. Waiver. The Guarantor hereby expressly waives: (a) notice of the
acceptance of this Operative Guaranty; (b) notice of the existence or creation
or non-payment of all or any of the Liabilities; (c) presentment, demand, notice
of dishonor, protest, and all other notices whatsoever; and (d) all diligence in
collection or protection of or realization upon the Liabilities or any thereof,
any obligation hereunder, or any security for or Operative Guaranty of any of
the foregoing.

     SECTION 9. Assignment. Subject to Section 6 of the Master Agreement, each
Funding Party may, from time to time, whether before or after any discontinuance
of this Operative Guaranty, at its sole discretion and without notice to the
Guarantor, assign or transfer any or all of its portion of the Liabilities or
any interest therein; and, notwithstanding any such assignment or transfer or
any subsequent assignment or transfer thereof, such Liabilities shall be and
remain Liabilities for the purposes of this Operative Guaranty, and each and
every such immediate and successive assignee or transferee of any of the
Liabilities or of any interest therein shall, to the extent of such assignee's
or transferee's interest in the Liabilities, be entitled to the benefits of this
Operative Guaranty to the same extent as if such assignee or transferee were
such Funding Party.

     SECTION 10. Miscellaneous. No delay in the exercise of any right or remedy
shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise of any
right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right or remedy; nor shall any modification or waiver of any of the
provisions of this Operative Guaranty be binding upon any Funding Party except
as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered on its behalf. No
action permitted hereunder shall in any way affect or impair any Funding Party's
rights or the Guarantor's obligations under this Operative Guaranty. For the
purposes of this Operative Guaranty, Liabilities shall include all of the
obligations described in the definition thereof, notwithstanding any right or
power of the Lessee or the Lessor or anyone else to assert any claim or defense
(other than final payment) as to the invalidity or unenforceability of any such
obligation, and no such claim or defense shall affect or impair the obligations
of the Guarantor hereunder. The Guarantor's obligations under this Operative
Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of any circumstance
whatsoever which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of
the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby acknowledges that there are no conditions to
the effectiveness of this Operative Guaranty.

     This Operative Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantor and upon the
Guarantor's successors and permitted assigns; and all references herein to the
Guarantor shall be deemed to include any successor or successors, whether
immediate or remote, to such Person; provided that the Guarantor shall not
assign its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Funding Parties.

     Wherever possible each provision of this Operative Guaranty shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law,
but if any provision of this Operative Guaranty shall be prohibited by or
invalid thereunder, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of
such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Operative Guaranty.

     The Guarantor: (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action
or proceeding relating to this Operative Guaranty, or for recognition and
enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general
jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of Georgia sitting in Fulton County,
Georgia, the courts of the United States of America for the Northern District of
Georgia, and appellate courts from any thereof; (b) consents that any such
action or proceedings may be brought to such courts, and waives any objection
that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding
in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an
inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; (c) agrees that
service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by
delivering a copy thereof to it at its address set forth below or at such other
address of which the other parties to the Master Agreement shall have been
notified pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Master Agreement; and (d) agrees that
nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other
manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of the Funding Parties to sue
in any other jurisdiction.

     All notices, demands, declarations, consents, directions, approvals,
instructions, requests and other communications required or permitted by this
Operative Guaranty shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly
given when addressed to the appropriate Person and delivered in the manner
specified in Section 8.2 of the Master Agreement. The initial address for
notices to each Guarantor is set forth below.

     THIS OPERATIVE GUARANTY SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED
BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW
PRINCIPLES.
