<PAGE>   7


Agreement and under the Other Agreements will be unconditionally guaranteed by

Agreement and the Other Agreements (the "PARENT GUARANTEE").

         (b) The obligations of the Obligors hereunder and under the Other
Agreements (including without limitation under the Parent Guarantee) and the
Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Parent's

Exhibit 1.2 (individually a "SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE" and collectively the
"SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES", which terms shall include after the date of the
Closing all additional Subsidiary Guarantees from time to time executed and
delivered pursuant to Section 9.7).

1.3. THE ACQUISITION AND THE TRANSACTIONS.

         Pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of January

Agreement, dated as of January 13, 1997, between the Company and the Parent and
the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 13, 1997, between

all of the capital stock of the Company and purchase certain Debt of the
Company for approximately $275,000,000 in cash and the issuance of shares of a
new series of convertible Preferred Stock of the Parent (the "ACQUISITION").

         In connection with the Acquisition, (a) the Parent intends to issue
Class A Shares pursuant to a registered public offering for gross cash proceeds
of at least $150,000,000, (b) the Parent intends to issue $45,000,000 aggregate

a rental car asset-backed commercial paper program through a special purpose,
bankruptcy remote, Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company, and (e) the Company,
as borrower, and the Parent, as guarantor, intend to enter into a $300,000,000
Revolving Credit Facility (the issuance of the Notes and the transactions
described in clauses (a) through (e) above are collectively the
"TRANSACTIONS").

2.   SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTES.

         Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company
will issue and sell to you and you will purchase from the Company, at the
Closing provided for in Section 3, Notes in the aggregate principal amount
specified opposite your name in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the
principal amount thereof. Contemporaneously with entering into this Agreement,
the Company and the Parent are entering into separate senior note purchase
agreements (the "OTHER AGREEMENTS") identical with this Agreement (except for
the principal amounts of Notes to be purchased) with each of the other
purchasers named in Schedule A (the "OTHER PURCHASERS"), providing for the sale
at such Closing to each of the Other Purchasers of Notes in the principal
amount specified opposite its name in Schedule A. Your obligation hereunder and
the obligations of the Other Purchasers under the Other Agreements are several
and not joint obligations and you shall have no obligation under any Other
Agreement and no liability to any Person for the performance or non-performance
by any Other Purchaser thereunder.

3.   CLOSING.

         The sale and purchase of the Notes to be purchased by you and the
Other Purchasers shall occur at the offices of Mayer, Brown & Platt, 1675
Broadway, New York, NY 10019, at 10:00 a.m., New York time, at a closing (the
"CLOSING") on April 29, 1997 or on such other Business Day thereafter on or
prior to May 15, 1997 as may be agreed upon by the Obligors and you and the
Other Purchasers. At the Closing the Company will deliver to you the Notes to
be purchased by you in the form of a single Note (or such greater number of
Notes in denominations of at least $500,000 as you may request) dated the date
of the Closing and registered in your name (or in the name of your nominee),
against delivery by you to the Company or its order of immediately available
funds in the amount of


                                       3

the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for
the account of Budget Rent A Car Corporation to account number 39293601 at

as provided above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in
Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to your satisfaction, you shall, at
your election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement,

such nonfulfillment.

5.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE OBLIGORS.

         The Obligors jointly and severally represent and warrant to you as
hereinafter set forth. Unless the context otherwise requires all
representations and warranties set forth herein shall be deemed to be given
with respect to the Parent and its Subsidiaries or Significant Subsidiaries, as
the case may be, after giving effect to the consummation of the Acquisition and
the Transactions on the date of the Closing.

5.1. ORGANIZATION; POWER AND AUTHORITY.

         Each Obligor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and is duly
qualified as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction
in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions
as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Each Obligor has the corporate power and authority to own or
hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to
transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and
deliver this Agreement and the Other Agreements and (in the case of the
Company) the Notes and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof.

5.2. AUTHORIZATION, ETC.

         This Agreement and the Notes have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and this Agreement
constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute,
a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the
Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be
limited by (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and
(b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). This Agreement has been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Parent and this
Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Parent
enforceable against the Parent in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited as aforesaid.


                                       8
<PAGE>   14


5.3. DISCLOSURE.

         The Parent, through its agent, Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation,
has delivered to you a copy of a Preliminary Prospectus (subject to completion)
dated April 18, 1997 (the "PROSPECTUS") relating to the issue and sale of
6,500,000 Class A Shares in connection with the Acquisition pursuant to a
registration statement under the Securities Act. The Prospectus fairly
describes, in all material respects, the business and principal properties of
the Parent and its Subsidiaries, the Acquisition and the Transactions. This
Agreement, the Prospectus, the documents, certificates or other writings
delivered to you by or on behalf of the Obligors in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby and described in Schedule 5.3 (together with
the Prospectus, the "DISCLOSURE DOCUMENTS"), and the financial statements
listed in Schedule 5.5, taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading. Since December 31, 1996, there has been no change in
the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the
Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries, each taken as a whole, except
changes disclosed in the Disclosure Documents or in the financial statements
listed in Schedule 5.5 and other changes that individually or in the aggregate
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.4. ORGANIZATION AND OWNERSHIP OF SHARES OF SUBSIDIARIES; AFFILIATES.

         (a) Schedule 5.4 contains (except as noted therein) complete and
correct lists of the Parent's (i) Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary,
the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, the percentage
of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests
outstanding owned by the Parent and each other Subsidiary and whether it is a
Subsidiary Guarantor or a Significant Subsidiary, (ii) Affiliates, other than
Subsidiaries, and (iii) directors and senior officers, in each case after
giving effect to the Acquisition. All Subsidiaries that are not designated as
Significant Subsidiaries in Schedule 5.4, if combined into a single Subsidiary,
would not constitute a Significant Subsidiary.

         (b) All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or


                                       9
<PAGE>   15


similar equity interests of each Significant Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4
as being owned by the Parent and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are
fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Parent or another Subsidiary
free and clear of any Lien, other than as listed on Schedule 5.4.

         (c) Each Significant Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.4 is a
corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the
extent such concepts are recognized in such jurisdictions) under the laws of
its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign
corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such
qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which
the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or
in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Each such Significant Subsidiary has the corporate power and authority to own
or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and
to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact and, as to each
Subsidiary Guarantor, to execute and deliver and perform its obligations under
its respective Subsidiary Guarantee.

         (d) No Significant Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to
any legal restriction or any agreement (other than this Agreement, the
agreements listed in Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by
corporate law statutes) restricting the ability of such Significant Subsidiary
to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of
profits to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares
of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Significant Subsidiary.

5.5. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

         Each Obligor has delivered to you copies of the financial statements
of each Obligor and its respective Subsidiaries listed in Schedule 5.5. All of
said financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and
notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial
position of each Obligor and its respective Subsidiaries before giving effect
to the Acquisition and the Transactions or the pro forma consolidated financial
position of the Parent and its Subsidiaries after giving effect to the
Acquisition and the Transactions, as the case may be, as of the


                                      10
<PAGE>   16


respective dates specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results or pro
forma consolidated results, as the case may be, of their operations and cash
flows, as applicable, for the respective periods so specified and have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods
involved except as set forth in the notes thereto.

5.6. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, OTHER INSTRUMENTS, ETC.

         The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this
Agreement and the Notes, by the Parent of this Agreement, by the Subsidiary
Guarantors of their respective Subsidiary Guarantees and by the Parent, the
Company or any Subsidiary of any Transaction Document to which it is a party,
will not (i) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default
under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the
Company, the Parent or any other Significant Subsidiary under, any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease or any other
material agreement or instrument to which the Company, the Parent or any other
Significant Subsidiary is bound or by which the Company, the Parent or any
other Significant Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound
or affected, (ii) contravene the charter or bylaws of the Company, the Parent
or any other Significant Subsidiary, (iii) conflict with or result in a breach
of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree,
or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the
Company, the Parent or any other Significant Subsidiary or (iv) violate any
provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental
Authority applicable to the Company, the Parent or any other Significant
Subsidiary.

5.7. GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORIZATIONS, ETC.

         No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, filing or
declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the
execution, delivery or performance by the Company of this Agreement or the
Notes, by the Parent of this Agreement or by the Subsidiary Guarantors of their
respective Subsidiary Guarantees.



                                      11
<PAGE>   17


5.8. LITIGATION; OBSERVANCE OF AGREEMENTS, STATUTES AND ORDERS.

         (a) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.8, there are no actions, suits
or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Obligors, threatened against
or affecting the Parent or any Significant Subsidiary or any property of the
Parent or any Significant Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of
any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority except actions, suits or
proceedings (none of which directly or indirectly involves the Acquisition or
the Transactions) that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         (b) Neither the Parent nor any Significant Subsidiary is in default
under any term of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by
which it is bound, or any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court,
arbitrator or Governmental Authority or is in violation of any applicable law,
ordinance, rule or regulation (including without limitation Environmental Laws)
of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in
the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.9. TAXES.

         The Parent and its Significant Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns
that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all
taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and
assessments levied upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises,
to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before
they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (a) the
amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (b) the
amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good
faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Parent or a
Significant Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves
in accordance with GAAP. The Parent believes that the charges, accruals and
reserves on the books of the Parent and its Subsidiaries in respect of Federal,
state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate.


                                      12
<PAGE>   18


5.10. TITLE TO PROPERTY; LEASES.

         The Parent and its Significant Subsidiaries have good and marketable
title to their respective real properties and own sufficient title to their
respective other properties that individually or in the aggregate are Material,
including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited balance
sheet listed on Schedule 5.5 or purported to have been acquired by the Parent
or any Significant Subsidiary after the date of said balance sheet (except as
sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), either
before or after giving effect to the Acquisition, in each case free and clear
of Liens not permitted by this Agreement. All leases that individually or in
the aggregate are Material are valid and subsisting and are in full force and
effect in all Material respects.

5.11. LICENSES, PERMITS, ETC.

         Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.11,

         (a) the Parent and its Significant Subsidiaries own or possess all
      licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, copyrights,
      proprietary software, service marks, trademarks and trade names, or
      rights thereto, that individually or in the aggregate are Material,
      without known conflict with the rights of others;

         (b) to the best knowledge of the Obligors, no product of the Parent
      infringes in any Material respect any license, permit, franchise,
      authorization, patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark,
      trademark, trade name or other right owned by any other Person; and

         (c) to the best knowledge of the Obligors, there is no Material
      violation by any Person of any right of the Parent or any of its
      Significant Subsidiaries with respect to any patent, copyright,
      proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right
      owned or used by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.12. COMPLIANCE WITH ERISA.

         (a) The Obligors and each of their ERISA Affiliates have operated and
administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such
instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not reasonably be
expected to


                                      13
<PAGE>   19


result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither of the Obligors nor any of their
ERISA Affiliates has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA
or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to any Plan other
than such liabilities as would not be individually or in the aggregate
Material, and to the Obligors' knowledge, no event, transaction or condition
has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the
incurrence of any such liability by an Obligor or any of its ERISA Affiliates,
or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of
either Obligor or any of its ERISA Affiliates, in either case pursuant to Title
I or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax provisions or to section
401(a)(29) or 412 of the Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would
not be individually or in the aggregate Material.

         (b) The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each
of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of the end of such
Plan's most recently ended plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions
specified for funding purposes in such Plan's most recent actuarial valuation
report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Plan
allocable to such benefit liabilities, except as described in the financial
statements included in the Prospectus. The term "BENEFIT LIABILITIES" has the
meaning specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms "CURRENT VALUE" and
"PRESENT VALUE" have the meaning specified in section 3 of ERISA.

         (c) The Obligors and their ERISA Affiliates have not incurred
withdrawal liabilities (and are not subject to contingent withdrawal
liabilities) under section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer
Plans that individually or in the aggregate are Material.

         (d) The expected postretirement benefit obligation (determined as of
the last day of the Parent's most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 106, without regard to
liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of
the Code) of the Parent and its Subsidiaries is not Material.

         (e) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Parent
Guarantee and the issuance and sale of the Notes at the Closing hereunder will
not involve any transaction that is


                                      14
<PAGE>   20

subject to the prohibitions of section 406 fof ERISA or in connection with
which a tax could be imposed pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code.
The representation by the Obligors in the first sentence of this Section
5.12(e) is made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of your
representation in Section 6.2 as to the sources of the funds used to pay the
purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by you.

5.13. PRIVATE OFFERING BY THE OBLIGORS.

         Neither Obligor nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes,
the Parent Guarantee, the Subsidiary Guarantees or any similar securities for
sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise
approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any person other than you,
the Other Purchasers and not more than six other Institutional Investors, each
of which has been offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither
Obligor nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action
that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes or the issuance of the
Parent Guarantee or the Subsidiary Guarantees to the registration requirements
of Section 5 of the Securities Act.

5.14. USE OF PROCEEDS; MARGIN REGULATIONS.

         The Company will use the net proceeds of the sale of the Notes to
repay Debt of the Company and for general corporate purposes of the Company. No
part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, and no
part of the proceeds of such Debt was used, directly or indirectly, for the
purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation
G of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 207), or for
the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such
circumstances as to involve the Company or the Parent in a violation of
Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a
violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not
constitute any of the consolidated assets of the Parent and its Subsidiaries
and the Parent does not have any present intention that margin stock will
constitute more than 20% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section,
the terms "MARGIN STOCK" and "PURPOSE OF BUYING OR CARRYING" shall have the
meanings assigned to them in said Regulation G.


                                      15
<PAGE>   21


5.15. EXISTING DEBT; FUTURE LIENS.

         (a) Schedule 5.15 sets forth a complete and correct list of all
outstanding Debt of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1997, and
all Debt of the Parent and its Subsidiaries to be outstanding as of the date of
the Closing after giving effect to the Acquisition and the Transactions.
Neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary is in default, and no waiver of default
is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any such
Debt, and no event or condition exists with respect to any such Debt exceeding
$1,000,000 in unpaid principal amount that would permit (or that with the
giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more
Persons to cause such Debt to become due and payable before its stated maturity
or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

         (b) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15, neither the Parent nor any
Subsidiary has agreed or consented to cause or permit in the future (upon the
happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property, whether now owned
or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien not permitted by Section 10.2.

5.16. FOREIGN ASSETS CONTROL REGULATIONS, ETC.

         Neither the sale of the Notes by the Company hereunder nor its use of
the proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended,
or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury
Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling
legislation or executive order relating thereto.

5.17. STATUS UNDER CERTAIN STATUTES.

         Neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary is subject to regulation under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Public Utility Holding
Company Act of 1935, as amended, the Interstate Commerce Act, as amended, or
the Federal Power Act, as amended.

5.18. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS.

         The operations of the Parent and its Subsidiaries comply with all
Environmental Laws and all other applicable Requirements of Law concerning
environmental health and safety, except where the failure so to comply
individually and in the


                                      16
<PAGE>   22



aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         In addition to and without limiting the foregoing, except for matters
that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect:

         (a) neither the Parent nor any Significant Subsidiary, nor any
      property or operations currently owned or leased by the Parent or any
      Significant Subsidiary, is subject to, and no property or operations
      formerly owned or leased by the Parent or any Significant Subsidiary
      during such period of ownership or lease were to either Obligor's
      knowledge subject to, any Order from or agreement with any court,
      arbitrator or Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction or subject
      to any judicial or docketed administrative proceeding respecting (x) any
      Environmental Law or any other environmental or health or safety
      Requirement of Law, (y) any action required to clean up, remove, treat or
      in any other way address Hazardous Materials in the environment or (z)
      any written claim under any Environmental Law arising from the release or
      threatened release of Hazardous Materials into the environment;

         (b) all necessary authorizations, consents, permissions, licenses and
      agreements required by Environmental Laws (collectively "ENVIRONMENTAL
      CONSENTS") have been lawfully obtained by the Parent and its
      Subsidiaries, and all Environmental Consents are valid and subsisting and
      are in full force and effect;

         (c) the Parent and its Significant Subsidiaries have complied in all
      material respects with all conditions attaching to Environmental Consents
      (whether such conditions are expressly imposed or implied by statute) and
      neither Obligor is aware of any circumstances which would render it
      impossible for the Parent or any Significant Subsidiary to comply with
      such conditions in the future;

         (d) neither the Parent nor any Significant Subsidiary has received any
      written notice, Order, correspondence or communication from any
      Governmental Authority in respect of any Environmental Consent revoking,
      suspending, modifying or varying the same, or threatening to do so, and
      neither


                                      17
<PAGE>   23

      Obligor knows of any reason for any Environmental Consent to be revoked,
      suspended, modified or varied;

         (e) neither the Parent nor any Significant Subsidiary has received any
      written communication in any form from any Governmental Authority in
      respect of any violation of any Environmental Law; and neither Obligor is
      aware of any circumstances which would be reasonably expected to give
      rise to such a communication being received, or of any intention on the
      part of any competent authority to deliver any such communication;

         (f) to either Obligor's knowledge, no site owned or occupied by the
      Parent or any Subsidiary has been used for the deposit of waste during
      the ownership or occupation of the Parent or any Subsidiary except for
      such usage in accordance with Environmental Law or pursuant to all
      requisite material consents thereunder;

         (g) to either Obligor's knowledge, all Hazardous Materials produced in
      the course of the businesses of the Parent and its Subsidiaries have been
      lawfully disposed of; and

         (h) to either Obligor's knowledge, the Parent and its Subsidiaries
      have at all times supplied to the competent authorities such information
      as is required by Environmental Laws, and all such information given was
      correct at the time such information was supplied.

5.19. SOLVENCY.

         Each Obligor is, and after giving effect to the issuance of the Notes
and the consummation of the Acquisition and the Transactions on the date of the
Closing will be, a "solvent institution", as said term is used in Section
1405(c) of the New York Insurance Law, whose "obligations . . . are not in
default as to principal or interest", as said terms are used in said Section
1405(c).

5.20. OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS.

         The Parent has furnished or otherwise made available to you true and
correct copies of the Stock Purchase Agreements and other Transaction Documents
to which you are not a party, in each case, in the form of the most recent
drafts (which are


                                      18
<PAGE>   24

substantially final) or as originally executed, as the case may be, and there
have been no amendments or waivers to any such originally executed Transaction
Documents or the exhibits or schedules thereto and there will be no substantial
changes before execution of any such Transaction Documents not yet executed, or
amendments or waivers in respect thereof, in any such case other than those as
to which you shall have been advised in writing prior to the Closing.

         The representations and warranties of the Parent and its Subsidiaries
contained in such other Transaction Documents (executed and to be executed) are
(or upon execution thereof will be) true and correct.

6.   REPRESENTATIONS OF THE PURCHASER.

6.1. PURCHASE OF NOTES.

         You represent that you are purchasing the Notes for your own account
or for one or more separate accounts maintained by you or for the account of
one or more pension or trust funds and not with a view to the distribution
thereof, provided that the disposition of your or their property shall at all
times be within your or their control. You understand that the Notes have not
been registered under the Securities Act and may be resold only if registered
pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Act or if an exemption from
registration is available, except under circumstances where neither such
registration nor such an exemption is required by law, and that the Company is
not required to register the Notes.

6.2. SOURCE OF FUNDS.

         You represent that at least one of the following statements is an
accurate representation as to each source of funds (a "SOURCE") to be used by

the Exchange Act, the Parent shall deliver, with reasonable promptness after a

      statements then being furnished (including with respect to each such
      Section, where applicable, the calculations of the maximum or minimum

8.   PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES.

         In addition to the payment of the entire unpaid principal amount of
the Notes at the final maturity thereof, the Company will make required, and
may make optional, prepayments in respect of the Notes as hereinafter provided.

8.1. REQUIRED PREPAYMENTS.

         On April 29, 2001 and on each April 29 thereafter to and including
April 29, 2006 the Company will prepay $23,575,000 principal amount (or such
lesser principal amount as shall then be outstanding) of the Notes, together
with accrued interest thereon to the date of such prepayment, without premium
and allocated as provided in Section 8.4, provided that upon any partial
prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3, the principal amount of
each required prepayment of the Notes becoming due under this Section 8.1 on
and after the date of such prepayment shall be reduced in the same proportion
as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes is reduced as a result of
such prepayment.

8.2. OPTIONAL PREPAYMENTS.

         The Company may, at its option and upon notice as provided below,
prepay at any time all (subject to the last paragraph of this Section 8.2), or
from time to time any part of, the Notes (in a minimum amount of $10,000,000
and otherwise in integral multiples of $1,000,000), at the principal amount so
prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment,
plus the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to
such principal amount. The Company will give each holder of Notes written
notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than 30 days
and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each
such notice shall specify the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a
Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on
such date, the principal amount of Notes held by such holder to be prepaid
(determined in accordance with Section 8.4) and the interest to be paid on the
prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid.

         Each such notice of prepayment shall be accompanied by a certificate
of a Senior Financial Officer of an Obligor as to the estimated Make-Whole
Amount due in connection with such


                                      27
<PAGE>   33

prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the
prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days
prior to such prepayment of Notes, the Company shall deliver to each holder of
the Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer of an Obligor specifying
the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, until the earlier of (i) a public
offering and sale of the Exchange Parent Convertible Notes pursuant to a demand
registration under the Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) the prepayment or
conversion of all outstanding Parent Convertible Notes, the Company may not
make any prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8.2 if, after giving
effect thereto, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes at the time
outstanding would be less than $23,000,000.

8.3. PREPAYMENT IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE OF CONTROL.

         Promptly and in any event within five Business Days after the
occurrence of a Change of Control, either Obligor will give written notice
thereof to the holders of all outstanding Notes, which notice shall (a) refer
specifically to this Section 8.3, (b) describe the Change of Control in
reasonable detail and specify the Change of Control Prepayment Date and the
Response Date (as respectively defined below) in respect thereof and (c) offer
to prepay all Notes at the price specified below on the date therein specified
(the "CHANGE OF CONTROL PREPAYMENT DATE"), which shall be a Business Day not
less than 30 nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice. Each holder
of a Note will notify the Company of such holder's acceptance (indicating the
aggregate principal amount of Notes to be prepaid) or rejection of such offer
by giving written notice of such acceptance or rejection to the Company at
least five Business Days prior to the Change of Control Prepayment Date (the
"RESPONSE DATE"). The failure by any such holder to respond in writing to such
offer on or before the Response Date shall be deemed to be a rejection of such
offer by such holder in respect of such Change of Control.

         On the Change of Control Prepayment Date the Company will prepay all
of the Notes held by the holders as to which such offer has been accepted, at
the principal amount of each such Note, together with interest accrued thereon
to the Change of Control Prepayment Date, plus a premium equal to 1% of such
principal amount.


                                      28
<PAGE>   34


         If any holder of Notes shall reject such offer, such holder shall be
deemed to have waived its rights under this Section 8.3 to require prepayment
of all Notes held by such holder in respect of such Change of Control but not
in respect of any subsequent Change of Control.

8.4. ALLOCATION OF PARTIAL PREPAYMENTS.

         In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to
Section 8.1 or 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be
allocated among all the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly
as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof.

8.5. MATURITY; SURRENDER, ETC.

         In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8,
the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and
payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such
principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount or
premium, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay
such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and
Make-Whole Amount or premium, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal
amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be
surrendered to the Company upon request and cancelled and shall not be
reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount
of any Note.

8.6. PURCHASE OF NOTES.

         Neither Obligor will, nor will either Obligor permit any Affiliate to,
purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of
the outstanding Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes.

8.7. MAKE-WHOLE AMOUNT.

         The term "MAKE-WHOLE AMOUNT" means, with respect to any Note, an
amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining
Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the
amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no
event be

                                      29
<PAGE>   35


less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the
following terms have the following meanings:

                  "CALLED PRINCIPAL" means, with respect to any Note, the
         principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2
         or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable
         pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

                  "DISCOUNTED VALUE" means, with respect to the Called
         Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all
         Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal
         from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with
         respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted
         financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same
         periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable)
         equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

                  "REINVESTMENT YIELD" means, with respect to the Called
         Principal of any Note, 0.75% over the yield to maturity implied by (i)
         the yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the
         second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such
         Called Principal, on the display designated as "Page 500" on the
         Telerate Access Service (or such other display as may replace Page 500
         on Telerate Access Service) for actively traded U.S. Treasury
         securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of
         such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such
         yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of
         such time are not ascertainable by interpolation as provided below,
         the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest
         day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second
         Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called
         Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any
         comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury
         securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average
         Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. Such implied
         yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S.
         Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with
         accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1)
         the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with a maturity


                                      30

         closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the
         actively traded U.S. Treasury security with a maturity closest to and
         less than the Remaining Average Life.

                  "REMAINING AVERAGE LIFE" means, with respect to any Called
         Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth
         year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum
         of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of
         each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal
         by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth
         year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to
         such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining
         Scheduled Payment.

                  "REMAINING SCHEDULED PAYMENTS" means, with respect to the
         Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal
         and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with
         respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called
         Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if
         such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due
         to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next
         succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of
         interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on
         such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or 12.1.

                  "SETTLEMENT DATE" means, with respect to the Called Principal
         of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid
         pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately
         due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

9.   AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

         The Obligors jointly and severally covenant that so long as any of the
Notes are outstanding:

9.1. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.

         The Parent will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply with
all laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations to which each of them
is subject, including without limitation Environmental Laws, and will obtain
and maintain in


                                      31
<PAGE>   37

effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental
authorizations necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to
the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent
necessary to ensure that non-compliance with such laws, ordinances or
governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain in effect
such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental
authorizations could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.2. INSURANCE.

         The Parent will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain,
with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their
respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies,
of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles,
co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with
respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established
reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated.

9.3. MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES.

         The Parent will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain
and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in
good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear),
so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly
conducted at all times, provided that this Section shall not prevent the Parent
or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any
of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its
business and the Parent has concluded that such discontinuance could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

9.4. PAYMENT OF TAXES AND CLAIMS.

         The Parent will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to file all
tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge
all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes,
assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on them or any of their
properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and


                                      32
<PAGE>   38



assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent
and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might
become a Lien on properties or assets of the Parent or any Subsidiary, provided
that neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary need pay any such tax or assessment
or claim if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by
the Parent or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in
appropriate proceedings, and the Parent or a Subsidiary has established
adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Parent
or such Subsidiary or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes and assessments in
the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

9.5. CORPORATE EXISTENCE, ETC.

         Subject to Section 10.6, each Obligor will at all times preserve and
keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. Subject to Sections 10.5
and 10.6, the Parent will at all times preserve and keep in full force and
effect the corporate existence of each of its Subsidiaries (unless merged into
the Parent or a Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises (as franchisee) of
the Parent and its Subsidiaries unless, in the good faith judgment of the
Parent, the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and
effect such corporate existence, right or franchise could not, individually or
in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.6. LINES OF BUSINESS.

         The Parent and its Subsidiaries will at all times continue to be
engaged solely in the business of (a) renting worldwide for general use
passenger automobiles, vans and light trucks, (b) selling in the United States
late model automobiles and (c) franchising the foregoing business to other
Persons, and other business activities as may be incidental or related to the
foregoing (including without limitation the ownership and operation of parking
lots, the ownership and rental of recreational vehicles and the ownership and
operation of limousine services, taxi fleets or car dealerships). Without
limiting the foregoing, the Parent will not engage in any business activity
other than its continuing ownership of all of the shares of capital stock of
the Company and its compliance with its obligations under this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents.

9.7. ADDITIONAL SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES.

         Concurrently with the initial incurrence of any Debt by any Subsidiary
of the Parent (as a direct obligor or guarantor) under the Revolving Credit
Facility or under any extension, renewal or replacement of the Revolving Credit
Facility (including without limitation by such Subsidiary becoming a guarantor
under the Revolving Credit Facility or any such extension, renewal or
replacement), the Company will cause such Subsidiary to execute and deliver to
the holders of the Notes a Subsidiary Guarantee in the form hereinabove recited
and will furnish each such holder with a counterpart of such executed
Subsidiary Guarantee, together with an opinion of King & Spalding or other
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders (which opinion shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders and may be subject to customary
exceptions, qualifications and limitations under the circumstances) to the
effect that such Subsidiary Guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by such Subsidiary and is valid, binding and enforceable in
accordance with its terms; provided, however, that the Company will not permit
any Subsidiary to incur such Debt (as a direct obligor or guarantor) unless the
holders of the Notes shall have received assurances reasonably satisfactory to
the Required Holders that, as between the lenders under the Revolving Credit
Facility or such extension, renewal or replacement and the holders from time to
time of the Notes, all Debt of such Subsidiary under the Revolving Credit
Facility or such extension, renewal or replacement and under its respective
Subsidiary Guarantee is and shall be (except to the extent such Debt is
secured) pari passu with the Debt of such Subsidiary under its Subsidiary
Guarantee.

         The Obligors jointly and severally covenant that so long as any of the
Notes are outstanding:

10.1. INCURRENCE OF NON-VEHICLE DEBT; SUBSIDIARY DEBT.

      connection with the incurrence of Debt and which do not individually or

      Company within 180 days after the receipt thereof to (i) the repayment of
      unsubordinated Non-Vehicle Debt of the Company or the Parent (which
      repayment may, but need not, include prepayment of Notes pursuant to
      Section 8.2 and shall, in case of a prepayment of the Revolving Credit
      Facility, result in the permanent reduction of the commitments of the

      repaid) or (ii) the purchase of non-current assets for use in the
      business of the Company, or

                  (ii) the aggregate net book value of property or assets
         disposed of in such Asset Sale and all other Asset Sales by the Parent
         and its Subsidiaries during the immediately preceding twelve months
         does not exceed 15% of Consolidated Adjusted Assets (as of the last
         day of the quarterly accounting period ending on or most recently
         prior to the last day of such twelve month period),

      and provided further that for purposes of clause (ii) above there
      shall be excluded the net book value of property or


                                      40

      Sale is made for cash, payable in full upon the completion of such Asset
      Sale, and an amount equal to the net proceeds realized upon such Asset

      Debt.

         Nothing in this Section 10.5 shall limit the ability of the Parent to
distribute shares of capital stock of any Subsidiary to the shareholders of the
Parent, provided that such distribution is permitted by Section 10.7 and after
giving effect of such action the Parent owns beneficially at least 80% of the
capital stock of such Subsidiary.

10.6. MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, AMALGAMATION, ETC.

         The Parent will not and will not permit the Company or any Subsidiary
Guarantor to consolidate, amalgamate or merge with any other corporation or

                  Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee and (B)
                  caused to be delivered to each holder of a Note an opinion of
                  counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders to
                  the effect that all agreements or instruments effecting such

(other than the Parent or the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary), except

12.   REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC.

12.1. ACCELERATION.

         (a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Parent or the Company
      described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Section 11 has occurred, all the
      Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and
      payable.

         (b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
      Required Holders may at any time at its or their option, by notice or
      notices to the Company, declare all the Notes at the time outstanding to
      be immediately due and payable.

         (c) If any Event of Default described in paragraph (a) or (b) of
      Section 11 has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes
      at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time,
      at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all
      the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.

         Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1,
whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and
the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (x) all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon and (y) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of
such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall
all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment,
demand, protest or further notice, all of


                                      47
<PAGE>   53


which are hereby waived. The Obligors acknowledge, and the parties hereto
agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in
the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein specifically
provided) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the
Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result
of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation
of such right under such circumstances.

12.2. OTHER REMEDIES.

         If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and
irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately
due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time
outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an
action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the
specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for
an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in
aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or
otherwise.

12.3. RESCISSION.

         At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable
pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of Section 12.1, the Required Holders, by
written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and
its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes,
all principal of and Make-Whole Amount or premium, if any, on any Notes that
are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration,
and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount and premium,
if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in
respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) all Events of Default and
Defaults, other than the non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by
reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to
Section 18, and (c) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of
any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment
under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of
Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon.


                                      48
<PAGE>   54

12.4. NO WAIVERS OR ELECTION OF REMEDIES, EXPENSES, ETC.

         No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any
Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof
or otherwise prejudice such holder's rights, powers or remedies. No right,
power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder
thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to
herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute
or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Obligors under Section
16, the Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder
incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including
without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses and disbursements.

13.   PARENT GUARANTEE.

13.1. GUARANTEE.

         (a) Guaranteed Obligations. The Parent hereby unconditionally and
      irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety,

                  (i) the punctual payment when due, whether at stated
         maturity, by prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise, of all
         obligations of the Company arising under this Agreement, the Other
         Agreements and the Notes, whether for principal, interest (including
         without limitation interest on any overdue principal, Make-Whole
         Amount and premium, if any, and interest at the rate specified in the
         Notes and interest accruing or becoming owing both prior to and
         subsequent to the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization or
         similar proceeding involving either Obligor), Make-Whole Amount and
         premium, if any, fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise, and

                  (ii) the due and punctual performance and observance by the
         Company of all covenants, agreements and conditions on its part to be
         performed and observed under this Agreement, the Other Agreements and
         the Notes.

The obligations guaranteed by this Parent Guarantee are sometimes called the
"GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS".


                                      49
<PAGE>   55


         Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Parent
Guarantee guarantees, to the extent provided herein, the payment of all amounts
which constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any
other Person to any holder of a Note but for the fact that they are
unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Person.

         (b) Guarantee Absolute. This Parent Guarantee constitutes a present
      and continuing guarantee of payment and not of collectibility and the
      Parent guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly
      in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Other Agreements and
      the Notes, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in
      effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of
      any holder of a Note with respect thereto. The obligations of the Parent
      under this Parent Guarantee are independent of the Guaranteed
      Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and
      prosecuted against the Parent to enforce this Parent Guarantee,
      irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Company or any
      other Person liable for the Guaranteed Obligations or whether the Company
      or any other such Person is joined in any such action or actions. The
      liability of the Parent under this Parent Guarantee shall be primary,
      absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional irrespective of:

                  (i)   any lack of validity or enforceability of any Guaranteed
         Obligation, this Agreement, the Other Agreements, the Notes, any
         Subsidiary Guarantee or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

                  (ii)  any change in the time, manner or place of payment of,
         or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or
         any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this
         Agreement, the Other Agreements, the Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantee
         or this Parent Guarantee;

                  (iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any
         collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or
         consent to departure by the Parent or other Person liable, or any
         other guarantee, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;


                                      50
<PAGE>   56


                  (iv) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds
         thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of
         sale or other disposition of any collateral or any other assets of the
         Company or any other Subsidiary;

                  (v)  any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate
         structure or existence of the Company or any other Subsidiary; or

                  (vi) any other circumstance (including without limitation any
         statute of limitations) that might otherwise constitute a defense,
         offset or counterclaim available to, or a discharge of, the Company or
         the Parent.

                  This Parent Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder
of a Note, or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization
of the Company or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

                  (c) Waivers by the Parent. The Parent hereby irrevocably
      waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

                      (i)   promptness, diligence, presentment, notice of
         acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed
         Obligations and this Parent Guarantee;

                      (ii)  any requirement that any holder of a Note or any
         other Person protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any
         property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action
         against the Company or any other Person or any collateral;

                      (iii) any defense, offset or counterclaim arising by
         reason of any claim or defense based upon any action by any holder of a
         Note;

                      (iv)  any duty on the part of any holder of a Note to
         disclose to the Parent any matter, fact or thing relating to the
         business, operation or condition of any Person and its assets now known
         or hereafter known by such holder; and

                      (v)   any rights by which it might be entitled to require
         suit on an accrued right of action in respect of any


                                      51
<PAGE>   57

         of the Guaranteed Obligations or require suit against the Company or
         the Parent or any other Person.

13.2. SUBROGATION AND CONTRIBUTION

         The Parent shall not assert, enforce, or otherwise exercise (a) any
right of subrogation to any of the rights, remedies, powers, privileges or
liens of any holder of a Note or any other beneficiary against the Company or
any other obligor on the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral or other
security, or (b) any right of recourse, reimbursement, contribution,
indemnification, or similar right against the Company, and the Parent hereby
waives any and all of the foregoing rights, remedies, powers, privileges and
the benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or other
security given to any holder of a Note or any other beneficiary to secure
payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, until such time as the Guaranteed
Obligations have been paid in full.

13.3. CONTINUING GUARANTEE

         This Parent Guarantee is a continuing guarantee of payment and
performance and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until payment in full
of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Parent
Guarantee, (b) be binding upon the Parent, its successors and assigns and (c)
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by any holder of a Note and its
successors, transferees and assigns.

14.   REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES.

14.1. REGISTRATION OF NOTES.

         The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register
for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and
address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name
and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such
register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in
whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the
owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be
affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Company shall give to
any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request
therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all
registered holders of Notes.


                                      52
<PAGE>   58


14.2. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF NOTES.

         Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the
Company for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a
surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such
Note or his attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address
for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within five
Business Days thereafter the Company shall execute and deliver, at the
Company's expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as
requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note.
Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request.
Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which
interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the
surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental
charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be
transferred in denominations of less than $500,000, provided that if necessary
to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of
Notes, such Note may be in a denomination of less than $500,000.

         You agree that the Company shall not be required to register the
transfer of any Note to any Person (other than your nominee) or to any separate
account maintained by you unless the Obligors receive from the transferee a
representation to the Obligors (and appropriate information as to any separate
accounts or other matters) to the same or similar effect with respect to the
transferee as is contained in Section 6.2 or other assurances reasonably
satisfactory to the Obligors that such transfer does not involve a prohibited
transaction (as such term is used in Section 5.12(e). You shall not be liable
for any damages in connection with any such representations or assurances
provided to the Obligors by any transferee.

14.3. REPLACEMENT OF NOTES.

         Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it
of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note
(which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from
such


                                      53
<PAGE>   59

Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction
or mutilation), and

         (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably
      satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a
      nominee for, an original Purchaser or any other Institutional Investor,
      such Person's own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be
      satisfactory), or

         (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation
      thereof, within five Business Days thereafter the Company at its own
      expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and
      bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on
      such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such
      lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been
      paid thereon.

15.   PAYMENTS ON NOTES.

15.1. PLACE OF PAYMENT.

         Subject to Section 15.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount and
premium, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be
made at the principal office of Citibank, N.A. in New York City. The Company
may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of
payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the
principal office of the Company in New York City or the principal office of a
bank or trust company in New York City.

15.2. HOME OFFICE PAYMENT.

         So long as you or your nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and
notwithstanding anything contained in Section 15.1 or in such Note to the
contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for
principal, Make-Whole Amount and premium, if any, and interest by the method
and at the address specified for such purpose below your name in Schedule A, or
by such other method or at such other address as you shall have from time to
time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the
presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon,
except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or
reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, you shall
surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably


                                      54
<PAGE>   60

promptly after any such request, to the Company at the principal executive
office of the Parent or at the place of payment most recently designated by the
Company pursuant to Section 15.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any
Note held by you or your nominee you will, at your election, either endorse
thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which
interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in
exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 14.2. The Company will
afford the benefits of this Section 15.2 to any Institutional Investor that is
the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by you under this
Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as you
have made in this Section 15.2.

16.   EXPENSES, ETC.

16.1. TRANSACTION EXPENSES.

         Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated,
the Obligors jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees of your special counsel and, if
reasonably required, local or other counsel) incurred by you and each Other
Purchaser or holder of a Note in connection with such transactions and in
connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this
Agreement or the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee (whether or not such
amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), including without limitation:
(a) the costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining
whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement or the
Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee, or in responding to any subpoena or other
legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with this
Agreement or the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee, or by reason of being a
holder of any Note, and (b) the costs and expenses, including financial
advisors' fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of the
Parent, the Company or any other Subsidiary or in connection with any work-out
or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes. The
Obligors will pay, and will save you and each other holder of a Note harmless
from, all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses if any, of brokers
and finders (other than those retained by you).


                                      55
<PAGE>   61


         In furtherance of the foregoing, on the date of the Closing the
Obligors will pay or cause to be paid the reasonable fees and disbursements and
other charges (including estimated unposted disbursements and other charges as
of the date of the Closing) of your special counsel which are reflected in the
statement of such special counsel submitted to either Obligor on or prior to
the date of the Closing. The Obligors will also pay, promptly upon receipt of
supplemental statements therefor, reasonable additional fees, if any, and
disbursements and other charges of such special counsel in connection with the
transactions hereby contemplated (including disbursements and other charges
unposted as of the date of the Closing to the extent such disbursements and
other charges exceed estimated amounts paid as aforesaid).

16.2. SURVIVAL.

         The obligations of the Obligors under this Section 16 will survive the
payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or the Notes, and the termination of this
Agreement.

17.   SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

         All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or
transfer by you of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the
payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note,
regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of you or any
other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other
instrument delivered by or on behalf of either Obligor pursuant to this
Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Obligors under
this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and the Notes
embody the entire agreement and understanding between you and the Obligors and
supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject
matter hereof.

18.   AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

18.1. REQUIREMENTS.

         This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any
term hereof or of the Notes may be waived


                                      56
<PAGE>   62

(either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written
consent of the Obligors and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment
or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 22, or any
defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to you unless
consented to by you in writing, (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without
the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected
thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to acceleration
or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of
principal of, or change the rate or the time of payment or method of
computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount or premium, if any, on, the
Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the
holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, or
(iii) amend any of Sections 8, 9.7, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 13, 18 or 21 and (c) no
amendment of the third paragraph of Section 8.2 shall be effective without the
written consent of the holders of all Parent Convertible Notes at the time
outstanding.

18.2. SOLICITATION OF HOLDERS OF NOTES.

         (a) Solicitation. The Obligors will provide each holder of the Notes
      (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient
      information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is
      required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered
      decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in
      respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Obligors
      will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment,
      waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 18
      to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which
      it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of,
      the requisite holders of Notes.

         (b) Payment. Neither of the Obligors will directly or indirectly pay
      or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or
      additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to any
      holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering
      into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or amendment of any of the
      terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently
      paid, or security is concurrently granted, on the same terms, ratably to
      each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder did not consent
      to such waiver or amendment.



                                      57
<PAGE>   63
18.3. BINDING EFFECT, ETC.

         Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 18
applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each
future holder of any Note and upon the Obligors without regard to whether such
Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or
waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or
Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent
thereon. No course of dealing between the Obligors and the holder of any Note
nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall
operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein,
the term "THIS AGREEMENT" and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as
it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

18.4. NOTES HELD BY OBLIGORS, ETC.

                  Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of
the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then
outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be
given under this Agreement or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any
action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the
holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes
then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company, the Parent
or any of their respective Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

19.   NOTICES.

         All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in
writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a
confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service
(charges prepaid), or (b) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with
charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent:

                  (i) if to you or your nominee, to you or it at the address
         specified for such communications in Schedule A, or at such other
         address as you or it shall have specified to the Obligors in writing,


                                      58
<PAGE>   64


                  (ii)  if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at
         such address as such other holder shall have specified to the Obligors
         in writing,

                  (iii) if to the Company, to the Company at 4225 Naperville
         Road, Lisle, Illinois 60532, to the attention of Steven Worthley, or
         at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the
         holder of each Note in writing, or

                  (iv)  if to the Parent, to the Parent at 125 Basin Street,
         Suite 210, Daytona Beach, Florida 32114, to the attention of Steven
         Worthley, or at such other address as the Parent shall have specified
         to the holder of each Note in writing.

Notices under this Section 19 will be deemed given only when actually received.

20.   REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS.

         This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without
limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be
executed, (b) documents received by you at the Closing (except the Notes
themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information
previously or hereafter furnished to you, may be reproduced by you by any
photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or
other similar process and you may destroy any original document so reproduced.
Each Obligor agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original
itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the
original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by you
in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further
reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.
This Section 20 shall not prohibit either Obligor or any other holder of Notes
from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest
the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any
such reproduction.

21.   CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

         For the purposes of this Section 21, "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION" means
information delivered to you by or on behalf


                                      59
<PAGE>   65


of the Parent or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions
contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in
nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately
identified when received by you as being confidential information of the Parent
or such Subsidiary, provided that such term does not include information that
(a) was publicly known or otherwise known to you prior to the time of such
disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission
by you or any person acting on your behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to you
other than through disclosure by the Parent or any Subsidiary or (d)
constitutes financial statements delivered to you under Section 7.1 that are
otherwise publicly available. You will maintain the confidentiality of such
Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by you in good
faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to you,
provided that you may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) your
directors, officers, trustees, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to
the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the
investment represented by your Notes), (ii) your financial advisors and other
professional advisors whose duties require them to hold confidential the
Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this
Section 21, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor
to which you sell or offer to sell such Note or any part thereof or any
participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its
receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this
Section 21), (v) any Person from which you offer to purchase any security of
the Parent (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such
Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 21),
(vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you,
(vii) the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar
organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access
to information about your investment portfolio or (viii) any other Person to
which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect
compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to you, (x) in
response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any
litigation to which you are a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, to the extent you may reasonably determine such delivery and
disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the
protection of the


                                      60
<PAGE>   66


rights and remedies under your Notes and this Agreement. Each holder of a Note,
by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and
to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 21 as though it were a party to
this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Obligors in connection with the
delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to
such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a
holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will
enter into an agreement with the Obligors embodying the provisions of this
Section 21.

22.   SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.

         You shall have the right to substitute any one of your Affiliates as
the purchaser of the Notes that you have agreed to purchase hereunder, by
written notice to the Obligors, which notice shall be signed by both you and
such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate's agreement to be bound by this
Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy
with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt
of such notice, wherever the word "you" is used in this Agreement (other than
in this Section 22), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in
lieu of you. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser
hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to you all of the Notes then
held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Obligors of notice of such
transfer, wherever the word "you" is used in this Agreement, such word shall no
longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to you, and you
shall have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this
Agreement.

23.   MISCELLANEOUS.

23.1. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

         All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or
on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their
respective successors and assigns (including without limitation any subsequent
holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

23.2. CONSTRUCTION.

         Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express
provision to the contrary) as being independent


                                      61
<PAGE>   67

of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one
covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to
excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to
action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from
taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken
directly or indirectly by such Person.

23.3. JURISDICTION AND PROCESS; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

         (a) Each Obligor irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive in personam
jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out
of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, each Obligor irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by
way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to
the in personam jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

         (b) Each Obligor consents to process being served in any suit, action
or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 23.3(a) by mailing a copy
thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, to such Obligor at its address specified in Section 19 or at such
other address of which you shall then have been notified pursuant to said
Section. Each Obligor agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed
in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action
or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to
such Obligor. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as
evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or
any reputable commercial delivery service.

         (c) Nothing in this Section 23.3 shall affect the right of any holder
of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right
that the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against an
Obligor in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any


                                      62
<PAGE>   68

lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER AGREEMENTS, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER
DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH.

23.4. INDEMNIFICATION.

         Each of the Obligors agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, to indemnify, exonerate and hold you and each of your officers,
directors, employees and agents (collectively the "INDEMNITEES" and
individually an "INDEMNITEE") free and harmless from and against any and all
actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities and damages, and expenses
in connection therewith, including without limitation reasonable counsel fees
and disbursements (collectively the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES") incurred by the
Indemnitees or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to,
any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part directly or
indirectly with proceeds from the sale of any of the Notes or the execution,
delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Transaction
Document or any instrument contemplated hereby by any of the Indemnitees,
except as to any Indemnitee for any such Indemnified Liabilities arising on
account of such Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct; and if and
to the extent the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason,
each of the Obligors agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and
satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under
applicable law. The obligations of each of the Obligors under this Section
shall survive payment or conversion of the Notes.

23.5. PAYMENTS DUE ON NON-BUSINESS DAYS.

         Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary
notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8.2 that
notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as the date fixed for
such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or premium,
if any, or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day
shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the
additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next
succeeding Business Day.


                                      63
<PAGE>   69


23.6. SEVERABILITY.

         Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

23.7. ACCOUNTING TERMS; PRO FORMA COMPUTATIONS.

         All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in
this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with

done in accordance with GAAP.

23.8. COUNTERPARTS.

         This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one
instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each
signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

                               GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

                  GUARANTEE AGREEMENT dated as of ______________ made by
________________________, a _________________ corporation (the "GUARANTOR"), in
favor of the holders from time to time of the Notes referred to below
(collectively the "OBLIGEES").

                  WHEREAS, Budget Rent a Car Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the "COMPANY"), and Team Rental Group, Inc. (to be renamed Budget Group, Inc.),
a Delaware corporation (the "PARENT" and, together with the Company,
individually an "OBLIGOR" and collectively the "OBLIGORS"), have entered into
several Senior Note Purchase Agreements dated as of April 25, 1997 (as amended
or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively the "NOTE AGREEMENTS" and
terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein are being used herein as
so defined) with the institutional purchasers listed in Schedule A thereto,
providing for the issuance and sale of $165,000,000 aggregate principal amount
of the Company's 9.57% Guaranteed Senior Notes due 2007 (the "NOTES");

                  WHEREAS, the Parent has unconditionally guaranteed the Notes
and the obligations of the Company under the Note Agreements pursuant to a
parent guarantee (the "PARENT GUARANTEE") contained in Section 13 of the Note
Agreements; and

                  WHEREAS, it is a [condition precedent to the purchase of the
Notes by such purchasers under/requirement of] the Note Agreements that the
Guarantor shall execute and deliver this Guarantee Agreement;

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises the Guarantor
hereby agrees as follows:

                  SECTION 1. Guarantee. The Guarantor unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety,

                  A. the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity,
         by prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the
         Obligors arising under the Note Agreements (including without
         limitation the Parent Guarantee) and the Notes, including all
         extensions,


                               GUARANTEE AGREEMENT


<PAGE>   135


                                        2


         modifications, substitutions, amendments and renewals thereof, whether
         for principal, interest (including without limitation interest on any
         overdue principal, premium, Make-Whole Amount, and interest at the rate
         specified in the Notes and interest accruing or becoming owing both
         prior to and subsequent to the commencement of any proceeding against
         or with respect to either Obligor under any applicable Debtor Relief
         Laws as defined below), Make-Whole Amount or premium, if any, fees,
         expenses, indemnification or otherwise, and

                  B. the due and punctual performance and observance by the
         Obligors of all covenants, agreements and conditions on their part to
         be performed and observed under the Note Agreements and the Notes;

(all such obligations are called the "GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS"); provided that
the aggregate liability of the Guarantor hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall not exceed at any time the lesser of (1) the amount of the
Guaranteed Obligations and (2) the maximum amount for which the Guarantor is
liable under this Guarantee Agreement without such liability being deemed a
fraudulent transfer under applicable Debtor Relief Laws (as hereinafter
defined), as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. As used herein,
the term "DEBTOR RELIEF LAWS" means any applicable liquidation, conservatorship,
bankruptcy, moratorium, rearrangement, insolvency, reorganization or similar
debtor relief laws affecting the rights of creditors generally from time to time
in effect.

                  The Guarantor also agrees to pay, in addition to the amount
stated above, any and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable counsel fees
and expenses) incurred by any Obligee in enforcing any rights under this
Guarantee Agreement or in connection with any amendment of this Guarantee
Agreement.

                  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this
Guarantee Agreement guarantees, to the extent provided herein, the payment of
all amounts which constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be
owed by any other Person to any Obligee but for the fact that they are
unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Person.

                                       3


                  SECTION 2. Guarantee Absolute. The obligations of the
Guarantor under Section 1 of this Guarantee Agreement constitute a present and
continuing guaranty of payment and not of collectibility and the Guarantor
guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance
with the terms of the Note Agreements and the Notes, regardless of any law,
regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any
of such terms or the rights of any Obligee with respect thereto. The obligations
of the Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement are independent of the
Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and
prosecuted against the Guarantor to enforce this Guarantee Agreement,
irrespective of whether any action is brought against either Obligor or any
other Person liable for the Guaranteed Obligations or whether an Obligor or any
other such Person is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of the
Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement shall be primary, absolute,
irrevocable, and unconditional irrespective of:

                  A. any lack of validity or enforceability of any Guaranteed
Obligation, the Note Agreements, the Parent Guarantee, any Note or any agreement
or instrument relating thereto;

                  B. any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or
         in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any
         other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Note
         Agreements, the Parent Guarantee, any Note or this Guarantee Agreement;

                  C. any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any
collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to
departure by the Guarantor or other Person liable, or any other guarantee, for
all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

                  D. any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds
thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or
other disposition of any collateral or any other assets of the Parent or any
other Subsidiary;

                  E. any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate
structure or existence of the Parent, the Company or any other Subsidiary; or


                               GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

                                       4


                  F. any other circumstance (including without limitation any
statute of limitations) that might otherwise constitute a defense, offset or
counterclaim available to, or a discharge of, the Parent, the Company or the
Guarantor.

                  This Guarantee Agreement shall continue to be effective or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any
Obligee, or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization
of an Obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

                    SECTION 3.  Waivers.  The Guarantor hereby irrevocably
waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

                  A. promptness, diligence, presentment, notice of acceptance
and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this
Guarantee Agreement;

                  B. any requirement that any Obligee or any other Person
protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or
exhaust any right or take any action against either Obligor or any other Person
or any collateral;

                  C. any defense, offset or counterclaim arising by reason of
any claim or defense based upon any action by any Obligee;

                  D. any duty on the part of any Obligee to disclose to the
Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operation or
condition of any Person and its assets now known or hereafter known by such
Obligee; and

                  E. any rights by which it might be entitled to require suit on
an accrued right of action in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or
require suit against the Obligors or the Guarantor or any other Person.

                  SECTION 4.  Waiver of Subrogation and Contribution. The
Guarantor shall not assert, enforce, or otherwise exercise (A) any right of
subrogation to any of the rights, remedies, powers, privileges or liens of any
Obligee or any other beneficiary against the Company, the Parent or any other
obligor on the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral or other security, or
(B) any right of recourse, reimbursement,

contribution, indemnification, or similar right against the Company or the
Parent, and the Guarantor hereby waives any and all of the foregoing rights,
remedies, powers, privileges and the benefit of, and any right to participate
in, any collateral or other security given to any Obligee or any other
beneficiary to secure payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, until such time as
the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full.

                    SECTION 5.  Representations and Warranties.  The Guarantor
hereby represents and warrants as follows:

                  A. The Guarantor is a corporation duly organized, validly
         existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of

         on the part of the Guarantor.

                  B. The execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of
         this Guarantee Agreement will not (i) contravene, result in any breach
         of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any
         Lien in respect of any property of the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of
         the Guarantor under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan,
         purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, or
         any other material agreement or instrument to which the Guarantor or
         any Subsidiary of the Guarantor is bound or by which the Guarantor or
         any Subsidiary of the Guarantor or any of their respective properties
         may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of
         any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment,

                    SECTION 6. Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Guarantee Agreement and no consent to any departure by the
Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by the Required Holders, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which given; provided that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by all Obligees, (i) limit the liability of or release the
Guarantor hereunder, (ii) postpone any date fixed for, or change the amount of,
any payment hereunder or (iii) change the percentage of Notes the holders of

The Guarantor irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive in personam jurisdiction
of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Guarantee Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
the Guarantor irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as
a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the in personam
jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have
to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any
such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any
such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

                    The Guarantor consents to process being served in any suit,
action or proceeding of the nature referred to in this Section by mailing a copy
thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, to the Guarantor at its address specified in Section 7 or at such

Section. The Guarantor agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed
in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action
or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to the
Guarantor. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as
evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or
any recognized courier or overnight delivery service.

                    Nothing in this Section 10 shall affect the right of any
holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any
right that the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against
the Guarantor in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any
lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

                    The following opinions are to be provided by counsel for the
Obligors (allocated among such counsel as appropriate), subject to customary
assumptions, limitations and qualifications. All capitalized terms used herein
without definition shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreements.

                  1. The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly
existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite power and
authority to own or hold under lease the property it purports to own or hold
under lease, to carry on its business as now being conducted and to execute and
deliver the Agreements and to perform the provisions thereof. The Company has
duly qualified and is authorized to do business in each jurisdiction where such
qualification and authorization is necessary.

                  2. The Parent is a corporation duly organized and validly
existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite power and
authority to own or hold under lease the property it purports to own or hold
under lease, to carry on its business as now being conducted and to execute and
deliver the Agreements and the Notes and to perform the provisions thereof. The
Parent has duly qualified and is authorized to do business in each jurisdiction
where such qualification and authorization is necessary.

                  3. Each Significant Subsidiary so designated in Schedule 5.4
of the Agreements (other than the Company) is a corporation duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
incorporation or organization and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and
is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required
by law, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could
not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Each such Significant Subsidiary has all requisite corporate
power and authority to own or hold under lease the property it purports to own
or hold under lease and to carry on its business as now being conducted and, in
the case of the

Subsidiary Guarantors, to execute and deliver its respective Subsidiary
Guarantee and perform the provisions thereof.

                  4. The Agreements have been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by the Obligors and constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of
the Obligors, enforceable against the Obligors in accordance with their terms.

                  5. The Notes being purchased by you today have been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitute legal, valid

                  7. No consent, approval or authorization of, or declaration,
registration or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required to be
obtained or made as a condition to the validity of the execution and delivery by
the Obligors of the Agreements, by the Company of said Notes or by the
Subsidiary Guarantors of said Subsidiary Guarantees or for the performance by
the Obligors or the Subsidiary Guarantors of their respective obligations
thereunder.

                  8. It was not necessary in connection with the offering, sale
and delivery of said Notes, the Parent Guarantee or said Subsidiary Guarantees,
under the circumstances contemplated by the Agreements, to register said Notes,
the Parent Guarantee or said Subsidiary Guarantees under the Securities Act or
to qualify an indenture in respect of the Notes under the Trust Indenture Act of
1939, as amended.

                  9. The execution, delivery and performance by the Parent of
the Agreements, by the Company of the Agreements and the Notes and by the
Subsidiary Guarantors of their respective Subsidiary Guarantees will not (i)
contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in
the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan,
purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, or any other
agreement or instrument known to

                                       3


such counsel to which the Parent or any Significant Subsidiary is bound or by

properties may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of
any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree or
ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the
Parent or any Significant Subsidiary or (iii) violate any provision of any
statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to
the Parent or any Significant Subsidiary.

                  10. Neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary is subject to
regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended, or the Federal Power Act, as
amended.

                  11. None of the transactions contemplated by the Agreements
(including without limitation the use of the proceeds from the sale of the
Notes) will violate or result in a violation of Section 7 of the Exchange Act,
or any regulations issued pursuant thereto, including without limitation
Regulations G, T and X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
(12 CFR, Part 207, Part 220 and Part 224, respectively).

                  12. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to
the knowledge of such counsel threatened, against or affecting the Parent or any
Subsidiary or any property of the Parent or any Subsidiary in any court or
before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority,
except actions, suits or proceedings which (a) individually do not in any manner
draw into question the Acquisition or the Transaction Documents or the validity
of the Agreements, the Subsidiary Guarantees or the Notes and (b) in the
aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                                     * * * *

                             FORM OF OPINION OF WF&G


                                 April __, 1997

                        Re: Budget Rent a Car Corporation
                            9.57% Guaranteed Senior Notes due 2007

To the several Purchasers listed
  in Schedule A to the within-
  mentioned Note Agreements

Ladies and Gentlemen:

                  We have acted as your special counsel in connection with the
issuance by Budget Rent a Car Corporation (the "Company") of its 9.57%
Guaranteed Senior Notes due 2007 in an aggregate principal amount of
$165,000,000 (the "Notes") and the purchases by you pursuant to the several
Senior Note Purchase Agreements made by you with the Company and Team Rental
Group, Inc. (the "Parent") under date of April 25, 1997 (the "Note Agreements")
of Notes in the respective aggregate principal amounts specified in Schedule A
to the Note Agreements. All capitalized terms used herein without definition
shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Note Agreements.

                  We have examined such corporate records of the Obligors and
the Subsidiary Guarantors, agreements and other instruments, certificates of
officers and representatives of the Obligors and the Subsidiary Guarantors,
certificates of public officials, and such other documents, as we have deemed
necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter expressed. In such
examination we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity
of documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the authentic
originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. As to questions of fact
material to such opinions we have, when relevant facts were not independently
established, relied upon the representations set forth in the Note Agreements



<PAGE>   146



                                      -2-


and upon certifications by officers or other representatives of the Obligors and
the Subsidiary Guarantors.

                  In addition, we attended the closing held today at the office
of Mayer, Brown & Platt at which you purchased and made payment for Notes in the
respective aggregate principal amounts to be purchased by you, all in accordance
with the Note Agreements.

                  Based upon the foregoing and having regard for legal
considerations that we deem relevant, we render our opinion to you pursuant to
Section 4.4(b) of the Note Agreements as follows:

                  1. Each of the Obligors is a validly existing corporation in
good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the corporate
power to execute and deliver the Note Agreements, the Parent Guarantee (in the
case of the Parent) and the Notes (in the case of the Company) and to perform
its respective obligations thereunder.

                  2. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors identified as such in
Schedule 5.4 to the Note Agreements is a validly existing corporation in good
standing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of incorporation and has
the corporate power to execute and deliver its respective Subsidiary Guarantee
and to perform its respective obligations thereunder. [DELAWARE INCORPORATION IS
ASSUMED]

                  3. The Note Agreements have been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by the Obligors and the Note Agreements constitute legal, valid and
binding agreements of the Obligors, enforceable against the Obligors in
accordance with their terms.

                  4. The Notes being purchased by you today have been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitute legal, valid
and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with their terms.

                  5. The Subsidiary Guarantees have been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by the respective Subsidiary Guarantors and constitute
legal, valid and binding agreements of the respective Subsidiary Guarantors.

                  6. No consent, approval or authorization of, or declaration,
registration or filing with, any New York or Federal Governmental Authority is
required to be obtained or made as a



<PAGE>   147




                                      -3-


condition to the validity of the execution and delivery by the Obligors of the
Note Agreements, by the Company of said Notes or by the Subsidiary Guarantors of
their respective Subsidiary Guarantees delivered today pursuant to Section 4.5
of the Note Agreements or for the performance by the Company, the Parent or said
Subsidiary Guarantors of their respective obligations thereunder.

                  7. It was not necessary in connection with the offering, sale
and delivery of said Notes, the Parent Guarantee or said Subsidiary Guarantees,
under the circumstances contemplated by the Note Agreements, to register said
Notes, the Parent Guarantee or said Subsidiary Guarantees under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or to qualify an indenture in respect of the Notes
under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

                  8. The opinions of even date herewith of King & Spalding,
special counsel for the Parent, Kenneth M. Lipowitz, counsel to the Parent, and
Robert L. Aprati, Senior Vice President and General Counsel of the Company,
delivered to you pursuant to Section 4.4(a) of the Note Agreements, are
satisfactory to us in form and scope with respect to the matters specified
therein and we believe that you are justified in relying thereon.

                     The opinions expressed above are subject to the exception
that (a) the enforceability of any agreement or instrument in accordance with
its terms may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally and (ii) general equitable principles (regardless of
whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law)
and (b) the enforceability of indemnity provisions contained in the Note
Agreements may be subject to limitations based upon public policy
considerations.

                     We express no opinion as to Section 23.3 of the Note
Agreements insofar as said Section relates to (a) the subject matter
jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of
New York to adjudicate any controversy relating to the Note Agreements, the
Notes or any other document related thereto, (b) the waiver of inconvenient
forum with respect to proceedings in such United States District Court or (c)
the waiver of the right to jury trial.

Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

                    This opinion is given solely for your benefit and for the
benefit of institutional investor holders from time to time of the Notes
