                            MONOCACY BANCSHARES, INC.
                            1994 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
                                  (as amended)

1.   PURPOSE. The purpose of this Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") is to
     advance the development, growth and financial condition of Monocacy
     Bancshares, Inc. (the "Corporation") and each subsidiary thereof as defined
     in Section 424 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
     "Code"), by providing incentives through participation in the appreciation
     of capital stock of the Corporation as to secure, retain and motivate
     personnel who may be responsible for the operation and management of the
     affairs of the Corporation and any such subsidiary now or hereafter
     existing ("Subsidiary").

2.   TERM. The Plan shall become effective as of the date it is adopted by the
     Corporation's Board of Directors (the "Board"), so long as the
     Corporation's stockholders duly approve the Plan within twelve (12) months
     either before or after the date of the Board's adoption of the Plan. Any
     and all options and rights awarded under the Plan ("Awards") before it is
     so approved by the Corporation's stockholders shall be conditional upon and
     may not be exercised before timely obtainment of such approval, and shall
     lapse upon the failure thereof. If the Plan is so approved, it shall
     continue in effect until all Awards either have lapsed or been exercised,
     satisfied or canceled according to their terms under the Plan.

3.   STOCK. The shares of stock that may be issued under the Plan shall not
     exceed in the aggregate 110,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock,
     par value $5.00 per share (the "Stock"), as may be adjusted pursuant to
     paragraph 18 hereof. Such shares of Stock may be either authorized and
     unissued shares of Stock, or authorized shares of Stock issued by the
     Corporation and subsequently reacquired by it as treasury stock. Under no
     circumstances shall any fractional shares of Stock be issued or sold under
     the Plan or any Award. Except as may be otherwise provided in the Plan, any
     Stock subject to an Award that for any reason lapses or terminates prior to
     its exercise as to such Stock shall become and again be available under the
     Plan. The Corporation shall reserve and keep available, and shall duly
     apply for any requisite governmental authority to issue or sell the number
     of shares of Stock needed to satisfy the requirements of the Plan while in
     effect. The Corporation's failure to obtain any such governmental authority
     deemed necessary by the Corporation's legal counsel for the lawful issuance
     and sale of Stock under the Plan shall relieve the Corporation of any duty,
     or liability for the failure to issue or sell such Stock as to which such
     authority has not been obtained.

4.   ADMINISTRATION. The Plan shall be administered by a committee (the
     "Committee") consisting of two (2) or more directors from the Board serving
     for such terms as determined, selected and appointed by the Board. The
     Board shall fill all vacancies occurring in the Committee's membership, and
     at any time and for any reason may add additional members to the Committee
     or may remove members from the Committee and appoint their successors.
     Except as otherwise permitted under Section 16(b) of the Securities
     Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and applicable rules and regulations
     thereto, a member of the Committee must be a director of the Corporation,
     and during the year prior to the commencing service on the Committee must
     be a director of the Corporation and during the year prior to commencing
     service on the, and while a member of the Committee, was not granted or
     awarded any Awards, allocations or other options or rights of or with
     respect to Stock or any other equity securities of the Corporation or its
     affiliates pursuant to the Plan or any other plan of the Corporation or its
     affiliates which provides for grants or awards. A majority of the
     Committee's membership shall constitute a quorum for

                                       1

<PAGE>

     the transaction of all business of the Committee, and all decisions and
     actions taken by the Committee shall be determined by a majority of the
     members of the Committee attending a meeting at which a quorum of the
     Committee is present.

     The Committee shall be responsible for the management and operation of the
     Plan and, subject to its provisions, shall have full, absolute and final
     power and authority, exercisable in its sole discretion: to interpret and
     construe the provisions of the Plan, adopt, revise and rescind rules and
     regulations relating to the Plan and its administration, and decide all
     questions of fact arising in the application thereof; to determine what, to
     whom, when and under what facts and circumstances Awards shall be made, and
     the form, number, terms, conditions and duration thereof, including but not
     limited to when exercisable, the number of shares of Stock subject thereto,
     and Stock option purchase prices; to adopt, revise and rescind procedural
     rules for the transaction of the Committee's business, subject to any
     directives of the Board not inconsistent with the provisions or intent of
     the Plan or applicable provisions of law; and to make all other
     determinations and decisions, take all actions and do all things necessary
     or appropriate in and for the administration of the Plan. The Committee's
     determinations, decisions and actions under the Plan, including but not
     limited to those described above, need not be uniform or consistent, but
     may be different and selectively made and applied, even similar
     circumstances and among similarly situated persons. Unless contrary to the
     provisions of the Plan, all decisions, determinations and actions made or
     taken by the Committee shall be final and binding upon the Corporation and
     all interested persons, and their heirs, personal and legal
     representatives, successors, assigns and beneficiaries. No member of the
     Committee or of the Board shall be liable for any decision, determination
     or action made or taken in good faith by such person under or with respect
     to the Plan or its administration.

5.   AWARDS. Awards may be made under the Plan in the form of: (a) "Qualified
     Options" to purchase Stock that are intended to qualify for certain tax
     treatment as incentive stock options under Section 421 and 422 of the Code,
     (b) "Non-Qualified Options" to purchase Stock that are not intended to
     qualify under Sections 421-424 of the Code, (c) Stock appreciation rights
     ("SARs"), or (d) "Restricted Stock". More than one Award may be granted to
     an eligible person, and the grant of any award shall not be prohibit the
     grant of any other Award, either to the same person or otherwise, or impose
     any obligation upon the person to whom granted to exercise the Award. All
     awards and the terms and conditions thereof shall be set forth in written
     agreements, in such form and content as approved by the Committee from time
     to time, and shall be subject to the provisions of the Plan whether or not
     contained in such agreements. Multiple Awards for a particular person may
     be set forth in a single written agreement or in multiple agreements, as
     determined by the Committee, but in all cases each agreement for one or
     more Awards shall identify each of the Awards thereby represented as a
     Qualified Option, Non-Qualified Option, SAR, or Restricted Stock, as the
     case may be. Every Award made to a person (a "Recipient") shall be
     exercisable during his or her lifetime only by the Recipient, and shall not
     be salable, transferable or assignable by the Recipient except by his or
     her Will or pursuant to application laws of descent and distribution.

6.   ELIGIBILITY. Persons eligible to receive Awards shall be those key officers
     and other management employees of the Corporation and each Subsidiary as
     determined by the Committee. In no case, however, shall any current member
     of the Committee be eligible to receive any Awards. A person's eligibility
     to receive Awards shall not confer upon him or her any right to receive any
     Awards; rather, the Committee shall have the sole authority, exercisable in
     its discretion consistent with the provisions of the Plan, to select when,
     to whom and under what facts and circumstances Awards will be made. Except
     as otherwise provided, a person's eligibility to

                                       2

<PAGE>

     receive, or actual receipt of Awards under the Plan shall not limit or
     affect his or her benefits under or eligibility to participate in any
     other incentive or benefit plan or program of the Corporation or its
     affiliates.

7.   QUALIFIED OPTIONS. In addition to other applicable provisions of the Plan,
     all Qualified Options and Awards thereof shall be under and subject to the
     following terms and conditions:

     (a)  No qualified Option shall be awarded more than ten (10) years after
          the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or the date the Plan is
          approved by the Corporation's stockholders, whichever date is earlier;

     (b)  The time period during which any Qualified Option is exercisable, as
          determined by the Committee, shall not commence before the expiration
          of six (6) months or continue beyond the expiration of ten (10) years
          after the date such Option is awarded;

     (c)  If the Recipient of a Qualified Option ceases to be employed by the
          Corporation or any Subsidiary for any reason other than his or her
          death, the Committee may permit the Recipient thereafter to exercise
          such Option during its remaining term for a period of not more than
          three (3) months after such cessation of employment to the extent that
          the Option was then and remains exercisable, unless such employment
          cessation was due to the Recipient's disability as defined in Section
          22(e)(3) of the Code, in which case such three (3) month period shall
          be twelve (12) months; if the Recipient dies while employed by the
          Corporation or a Subsidiary, the Committee may permit the Recipient's
          qualified personal representatives, or any persons who acquire the
          Qualified Option pursuant to his or her Will or laws of descent and
          distribution, thereafter to exercise such Option during its remaining
          term for a period of not more than twelve (12) months after the
          Recipient's death to the extent that the Option was then and remains
          exercisable; the Committee may impose terms and conditions upon and
          for said exercise of such Qualified Option after such cessation of the
          Recipient's employment or his or her death;

     (d)  The purchase price of a share of Stock subject to any Qualified
          Option, as determined by the Committee, shall not be less than the
          Stock's fair market value at the time such Option is awarded, as
          determined under paragraph 13 hereof, or less than the Stock's par
          value.

     8.   NON-QUALIFIED OPTIONS. In addition to other applicable provisions of
          the Plan, all Non-Qualified Options and Awards thereof shall be under
          and subject to the following terms and conditions.

          (a)  determined by the Committee, shall not be less than the time
               period during which any Non-Qualified Option is exercisable, as
               determined by the Committee, shall not commence before the
               expiration of six (6) months or continue beyond the expiration of
               ten (10) years after the date such Option is awarded;

          (b)  If a Recipient of a Non-Qualified Option, before its lapse or
               full exercise, ceases to be eligible under the Plan, the
               Committee may permit the Recipient thereafter to exercise such
               Option during its remaining term, to the extent that the Option
               was then and remains exercisable, for such time period and under
               such terms and conditions as may be prescribed by the Committee;

          (c)  The purchase price of a share of Stock subject to any
               Non-Qualified Option, as the Stock's fair market value at the
               time such Option is awarded, as determined under paragraph 13

                                       3

<PAGE>

               hereof.

     9.   STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. In addition to other applicable provisions
          of the Plan, all SARs and Awards thereof shall be under and subject to
          the following terms and conditions:

          (a)  SARs may be granted either alone, or in connection with another
               previously or contemporaneously granted Award (other than another
               SAR) so as to operate in tandem therewith by having the exercise
               of one affect the right to exercise the other, as and when the
               Committee may determine; however, no SAR shall be awarded in
               connection with a Qualified Option more than ten (10) years after
               the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or the date the Plan is
               approved by the Corporation's stockholders, whichever date is
               earlier;

          (b)  Each SAR shall entitle its Recipient to receive upon exercise of
               the SAR all or a portion of the excess of (i) the fair market
               value at the time of such exercise of a specified number of
               shares of Stock as determined by the Committee, over (ii) a
               specified price as determined by the Committee of such number of
               shares of Stock that, on a per share basis, is not less than the
               Stock's fair market value at the time the SAR is awarded;

          (c)  Upon exercise of any SAR, the Recipient shall be paid either in
               cash or in Stock, or in any combination thereof, as the Committee
               shall determine; if such payment is to be made in Stock, the
               number of shares thereof to be issued pursuant to the exercise
               shall be determined by dividing the amount payable upon exercise
               by the Stock's fair market value at the time of exercise;

          (d)  The time period during which any SAR is exercisable, as
               determined by the Committee, shall not commence before the
               expiration of six (6) months or continue beyond the expiration of
               ten (10) years after the date such SAR is awarded; however, no
               SAR connected with another Award shall be exercisable beyond the
               last date that such other connected Award may be exercised;

          (e)  If a Recipient of a SAR, before its lapse or full exercise,
               ceases to be eligible under the Plan, the Committee may permit
               the Recipient thereafter to exercise such SAR during its
               remaining term, to the extent that the SAR was then and remains
               exercisable, for such time period and under such terms and
               conditions as may be prescribed by the Committee;

          (f)  No SAR shall be awarded in connection with any Qualified Option
               unless the SAR (i) lapses no later than the expiration date of
               such connected Option, (ii) is for not more than the difference
               between the Stock purchase price under such connected Option and
               the Stock's fair market value at the time the SAR is exercised,
               (iii) is transferable only when and as such connected Option may
               be exercised, and (v) may be exercised only when the Stock's fair
               market value exceeds the Stock purchase price under such
               connected Option.

     10.  RESTRICTED STOCK. In addition to other applicable provisions of the
          Plan, all Restricted Stock and Awards thereof shall be under and
          subject to the following terms and conditions:

          (a)  Restricted Stock shall consist of shares of Stock that may be
               acquired by and issued to a Recipient at such time, for such or
               no purchase price, and under and subject to such transfer,
               forfeiture and other restrictions, conditions or terms as shall
               be determined by the Committee, including but not limited to
               prohibitions against transfer, substantial risks of forfeiture

                                       4

<PAGE>

          within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code, and attainment of
          performance or other goals, objectives or standards, all for or
          applicable to such time periods as determined by the Committee;

          (b)  Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Restricted Stock
               Award, a Recipient of shares of Restricted Stock shall have all
               the rights as does a holder of Stock, including without
               limitation the right to vote such shares and receive dividends
               with respect thereto; however, during the time period of any
               restrictions, conditions or terms applicable to such Restricted
               Stock, the shares thereof and the right to vote the same and
               receive dividends thereon shall not be sold, assigned,
               transferred, exchanged, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or
               otherwise disposed of except as permitted by the Plan or the
               Restricted Stock Award;

          (c)  Each certificate issued for shares of Restricted Stock shall be
               deposited with the Secretary of the Corporation, or the office
               thereof, and shall bear a legend in substantially the following
               form and content:

               This Certificate and the shares of Stock hereby represented are
               subject to the provisions of the Corporation's Stock Incentive
               Plan and a certain agreement entered into between the owner and
               the Corporation pursuant to said Plan. The release of this
               Certificate and the shares of Stock hereby represented from such
               provisions shall occur only as provided by said Plan and
               agreement, a copy of which are on file of the Secretary of the
               Corporation.

               Upon the lapse of satisfaction of the restrictions, conditions
               and terms applicable to such Restricted Stock, a certificate for
               the shares of Stock free thereof without such legend shall be
               issued to the Recipient;

          (d)  If a Recipient's employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary
               ceases for any reason prior to the lapse of the restrictions,
               conditions or terms applicable to his or her Restricted Stock,
               all of the Recipient's Restricted Stock still subject to
               unexpired restrictions, conditions or terms shall be forfeited
               absolutely by the Recipient to the Corporation without payment or
               delivery of any consideration or other thing of value by the
               Corporation or its affiliates, and thereupon and thereafter
               neither the Recipient nor his or her heirs, personal or legal
               representatives, successors, assigns, beneficiaries, or any
               claimants under the Recipient's Last Will or laws of descent and
               distribution, shall have any rights or claims to or interests in
               the forfeited Restricted Stock or any certificates representing
               shares thereof, or claims against the Corporation or its
               affiliates with respect thereto.

     11.  EXERCISE. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, Awards may be
          exercised in whole or in part by giving written notice thereof to the
          Secretary of the Corporation, or his or her designee, identifying the
          Award being exercised, the number of shares of Stock with respect
          thereto, and other information pertinent to exercise of the Award. The
          purchase price of the shares of Stock with respect to which an Award
          is exercised shall be paid with the written notice of exercise, either
          in cash or in Stock at its then current fair market value, or in any
          combination thereof, as the Committee shall determine; provided, that
          if the Stock tendered as payment for a Qualified Option was acquired
          through the exercise of a Qualified Option, the Recipient must have
          held such Stock for a period not less than the holding period
          described in Code Section 422(a)(l). Funds received by the Corporation
          from the exercise of any Award shall be used for its general corporate
          purposes.

     The Committee may permit an acceleration of previously established exercise
     terms of any Awards or the lapse of restrictions thereon as, when, under
     such facts and circumstances, and

                                       5

<PAGE>

     subject to such other or further requirements and conditions as the
     Committee may deem necessary or appropriate. In addition: (a) if the
     Corporation or its stockholders execute an agreement to dispose of all or
     substantially all of the Corporation's assets or capital stock by means of
     sale, merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation or otherwise, as a
     result of which the Corporation" stockholders as of immediately before such
     transaction will not own at least fifty percent (50%) of the total combined
     voting power of all classes of voting capital stock of the surviving entity
     (be it the Corporation or otherwise) immediately after the consummation of
     such transaction, thereupon any and all Awards immediately shall become and
     remain exercisable with respect to the total number of shares of Stock
     still subject thereto for the remainder of their respective terms unless
     the transaction is not consummated and the agreement expires or is
     terminated, in which case thereafter all Awards shall be treated as if said
     agreement never had been executed; (b) if there is an actual, attempted or
     threatened change in the ownership of at least twenty-five percent (25%) of
     all classes of voting capital stock of the Corporation, as determined by
     the Committee in its sole discretion, through the acquisition of, or an
     offer to acquire such percentage of the Corporation's voting capital stock
     by any person or entity, or persons or entities acting in concert or as a
     group, and such acquisition or offer has not been duly approved by the
     Board, thereupon any and all Awards immediately shall become and remain
     exercisable with respect to the total number of shares of Stock still
     subject thereto for the remainder of their respective terms; or (c) if
     during any period of two (2) consecutive years, the individuals who at the
     beginning of such period, thereupon any and all Awards immediately shall
     become and remain exercisable with respect to the total amount of shares of
     Stock still subject thereto for the remainder of their respective terms. If
     an event described in (a), (b) or (c) occurs, the Committee shall
     immediately notify the Recipients in writing of the occurrence of such
     event and their rights under this paragraph 11.

12.  WITHHOLDING. Whenever the Corporation is about to issue or transfer Stock
     pursuant to any Award, the Corporation may require the Recipient to remit
     to the Corporation an amount sufficient to satisfy fully any federal, state
     and other jurisdictions' income and other tax withholding requirements
     prior to the delivery of any certificates for such shares of Stock.
     Whenever payments are to be made in cash to any Recipient pursuant to his
     or her exercise of an Award, such payments shall be made net after
     deduction of all amounts sufficient to satisfy fully and federal, state and
     other jurisdictions' income and other tax withholding requirements.

13.  VALUE. Where used in the Plan, the "fair market value" of Stock or Options
     or rights with respect thereto, including Awards, shall mean and be
     determined by: (a) in the event that the Stock is listed on an established
     exchange, the closing price of the Stock on the relevant date or, if no
     trade occurred on that day, on the next preceding day on which a trade
     occurred, (b) in the event that the Stock is not listed on an established
     exchange, but is then quoted on the National Association of Securities
     Dealers Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ"), the average of the
     average of the closing bid and asked quotations of the Stock for the
     five (5) trading days immediately preceding the relevant date, or (c) in
     the event that the Stock is not then listed on an established exchange or
     quoted on NASDAQ, the average of the average of the closing bid and asked
     quotations of the Stock for five (5) trading days immediately preceding the
     relevant date as reported by such brokerage firms which are then making a
     market in the Stock. In the event that the Stock is not listed on an
     established exchange and no closing bid and asked quotations are available,
     fair market value shall be determined in good faith by the Committee. In
     the case of (b) or (c) above, in the event that no closing bid or asked
     quotation is available on one or more of such trading days, fair market
     value shall be determined by reference to the five (5) trading days
     immediately preceding the relevant date on which closing bid and asked
     quotations are available.

14.  AMENDMENT. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may amend,
     suspend, or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that: (a) no
     amendment may be adopted that permits an Award to be granted to any member
     of the Committee; (b) with respect to qualified options, except as
     specified in paragraph 18 hereof, no amendment may be adopted that will
     increase the number of shares reserved for Awards under the Plan, change
     the option price, or change the provisions required for compliance with
     Section 422 of the Code and regulations issued thereunder; and (c)
     notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no amendment may be
     adopted to increase the number of securities that may be issued under the
     Plan, except as specified in paragraph 18 hereof, materially increase the
     benefits accruing to recipients or materially modify the requirements for
     eligibility to participate in the Plan, without the approval of the
     shareholders of the Corporation, to the extent that shareholder approval is
     required under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
     amended, and the regulations thereunder, as from time to time in effect.
     The amendment or termination of this Plan shall not, without the consent of
     the Recipients, alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Award
     previously granted hereunder.

     In addition and subject to the foregoing, the Committee may prescribe other
     or additional terms, conditions and provisions with respect to the grant or
     exercise of any or all Awards as the Committee may determine necessary or
     appropriate for such Awards and the Stock subject thereto to qualify under
     and comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and changes
     therein, including but not limited to the provisions of Sections 421 and
     422 of the Code, Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
     amended, and Rule 16b-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
     Commission. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, each
     Qualified Option, and any SAR awarded in connection therewith, shall be
     subject to such other and additional terms, conditions and provisions as
     the Committee may deem necessary or appropriate in order to qualify such
     Option, or connected Option and SAR, as an incentive stock option under
     Section 422 of the Code, including but not limited to the following
     provisions:

     (a)  The aggregate fair market value, at the time such Option is awarded,
          of the Stock subject thereto and of any Stock or other capital stock
          with respect to which incentive stock options qualifying under
          Sections 421 and 422 of the Code are exercisable for the first time by
          the Recipient during any calendar year under the Plan and any other
          plans of the Corporation or its affiliates, shall not exceed
          $100,000.00; and

     (b)  No Qualified Option, or any SAR in connection therewith, shall be
          awarded to any person if at the time of such Award, such person owns
          Stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined
          voting power of all classes of capital stock of the Corporation or its
          affiliates, unless at the time such Option SAR is awarded the Stock
          purchase price under such Option is at least one hundred and ten
          percent (110%) of the fair market value of the Stock subject to such
          Option and the Option (and any SAR connected therewith) by its terms
          is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the
          date it is awarded.

     From time to time, the Committee may rescind, revise and add to any of such
     terms, conditions and provisions as may be necessary or appropriate to have
     any Awards be or remain qualified and in compliance with all applicable
     laws, rules and regulations, and may delete, omit or waive any of such
     terms, conditions or provisions that are no longer required by reason of
     changes in applicable laws, rules or regulations.

                            MONOCACY BANCSHARES, INC.
                  1997 INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS' STOCK OPTION PLAN

1.   PURPOSE. The purpose of this Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") is to advance
     the development, growth and financial condition of Monocacy Bancshares,
     Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Corporation"), by providing incentives
     through participation in the appreciation of capital stock of the
     Corporation so as to secure, retain and motivate members of the
     Corporation's Board of Directors (the "Board") who are not officers and
     employees of the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof ("non-employee
     directors"). This Plan shall be interpreted and implemented in a manner so
     that non-employee directors will not fail, by reason of this Plan or their
     participation in it, to be "disinterested persons" within the meaning of
     Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange
     Act") as to any employee benefit plan of the Corporation or its affiliates.

2.   TERM. The Plan shall become effective as of the date the Corporation's
     stockholders duly approved the Plan (the "Effective Date"). If the Plan is
     so approved, it shall continue in effect until any stock options granted
     under the Plan either have lapsed or been exercised, satisfied or canceled
     according to their terms under the Plan.

3.   STOCK. The shares of stock that may be issued under the Plan shall not
     exceed, in the aggregate, sixty thousand (60,000) shares of the
     Corporation's common stock, par value $5.00 per share (the "Stock"). The
     aggregate amount of Stock under the Plan may be adjusted pursuant to
     paragraph 10. Such shares of Stock may be either authorized and unissued
     shares of Stock, or authorized shares of Stock issued by the Corporation
     and subsequently reacquired by it as treasury stock. Under no circumstances
     shall any fractional shares of Stock be issued under the Plan. The
     Corporation shall reserve and keep available, and shall duly apply for any
     requisite governmental authority to grant the stock options under this
     Plan, and issue or sell the number of shares of Stock needed to satisfy the
     requirements of the Plan while in effect. The Corporation's failure to
     obtain any such governmental authority deemed necessary by the
     Corporation's legal counsel for the proper grant of the stock options under
     this Plan and/or the issuance and sale of Stock under the Plan shall
     relieve the Corporation of any duty, or liability for the failure to grant
     the stock options under this Plan and/or issue or sell the Stock as to
     which such authority has not been obtained.

4.   STOCK OPTIONS. Stock options shall be granted under the Plan to all current
     non-employee directors of the Corporation, and any non-employee director,
     other than current or prior members of the Board, who become a member of
     the Board at any time within a five (5) year period after the Effective
     Date (such directors shall be referred to under this Plan as a "Director").
     Every stock option granted to a Director shall be exercisable during his or
     her lifetime only by the Director, and shall not be salable, transferable
     or assignable by the Director except by his or her Will or pursuant to
     applicable laws of descent and distribution. Commencing on the Effective
     Date, or in the case of a Director, who becomes a member of the Board at
     any time within a five (5) year period after the Effective Date, commencing
     on the date he or she is elected or appointed

                                       1

<PAGE>

     to the Board, a Director shall be granted a stock option to purchase five
     thousand (5,000) shares of Stock (the "Stock Option") under the following
     terms and conditions:

    (a)  The time period during which any Stock Option is exercisable shall be
         ten (10) years after the date the Stock Option is granted to the
         Director. However, no option may be exercised after the expiration of
         its term or after the date set forth in subsections (b), (c) or (d)
         below, if earlier. Options are exercisable only to the extent they are
         vested.

     (b) If the Optionee ceases to be a Director after attaining mandatory
         retirement age (as defined in the Corporation's By-Laws) or on account
         of death or disability, all outstanding options granted to such
         Optionee shall vest and the Optionee (or the Optionee's legatees or
         distributees or the personal representative of the Director's estate,
         in the event of the Optionee's death) may exercise the Optionee's
         outstanding options at any time until the first of the following to
         occur (1) that date that is two years after the date on which the
         Optionee ceases to be a Director or (2) the date on which such
         outstanding options expire according to their terms.

     (c) If an Optionee ceases to be a Director for any reason other than
         described in subsection (b) above, the Director may exercise his or her
         outstanding options to the extent vested at any time (subject to the
         limitations of subsection (f) below) until the first of the following
         to occur (1) the date that is three months after the date on which the
         Optionee ceases to be a Director or (2) the date on which such
         outstanding options expire according to their terms.

     (d) If an Optionee dies after the Optionee ceases to be a Director, but
         within the time period during which his or her outstanding Options are
         still exercisable, the Optionee's outstanding Options may be exercised
         by his or her legatees or distributees or the personal representative
         of his or her estate. Such outstanding Options may be exercised at any
         time (subject to the limitations of subsection (f) below) until the
         first of the following to occur (1) the date that is two years after
         the date on which the Optionee ceases to be a Director or (2) the date
         on which such outstanding Options expire according to their terms.

     (e) The purchase price of a share of Stock subject to a Stock Option shall
         be the fair market value of the Stock as determined under paragraph 6
         hereof.

     (f) Options are exercisable only to the extent they are vested, and no
         option may be exercised during the first six months after the Option
         Grant Date, unless the Optionee dies or becomes disabled (as determined
         under Title II of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 301 ET
         SEQ.) before the expiration of the six-month period. The Stock Option
         shall be made by a written agreement attached hereto as Exhibit "1",
         which written agreement contains the vesting schedule of the Stock
         Option, as follows:

5.   EXERCISE. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Stock Option may be
     exercised in whole or in part by giving written notice thereof to the
     Secretary of the Corporation, or his or her designee, identifying the Stock
     Option being exercised, the number of shares of Stock with respect thereto,
     and other information pertinent to the exercise of the Stock Option. The
     purchase price of the shares of Stock with respect to which a Stock Option
     is exercised shall be paid with the written notice of exercise, either in
     cash or in Stock which has been held by the Director for at least six (6)
     months at its then current fair market value, or in any combination
     thereof. Funds received by the Corporation from the exercise of any Stock
     Option shall be used for its general corporate purposes. The number of
     shares of Stock subject to a Stock Option shall be reduced by the number of
     shares of Stock with respect to which the Director has exercised rights
     under the Stock Option.

     If the Corporation or its stockholders execute an agreement to dispose of
     all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets or capital stock by
     means of sale, merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation or
     otherwise, as a result of which the Corporation's stockholders as of
     immediately before such transaction will not own at least fifty percent
     (50%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of voting capital
     stock of the surviving entity (be it the Corporation or otherwise)
     immediately after the consummation of such transaction, thereupon any and
     all Stock Options with the Director would be entitled to receive under the
     Plan shall be immediately granted to the Director until the consummation of
     such transaction, or if not consummated, until the agreement therefore
     expires or is terminated, in which case thereafter all Stock Options shall
     be treated as if said agreement never had been executed. If during any
     period of two (2) consecutive years, the individuals who at the beginning
     of such period constituted the Board, cease for any reason to constitute at
     least a majority of the Board, unless the election of each director of the
     Board, who was not a director of the Board at the beginning of such period,
     was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still
     in office who were directors at the beginning of such period, thereupon any
     and all Stock Options which the Director would be entitled to receive under
     the Plan shall be immediately granted to the Director. If there is an
     actual, attempted or threatened change in the ownership of at least
     twenty-five percent (25%) of any classes of voting capital stock of the
     Corporation through the acquisition of, or an offer to acquire such
     percentage of the Corporation's voting capital stock by a person or
     entity, or persons or entities acting in concert or as a group, and such
     acquisition or offer has not been duly approved by the Board, thereupon any
     and all Stock Options which the Director would be entitled to receive under
     the Plan shall be immediately granted.

6.   VALUE. Where used in the Plan, the "fair market value" of Stock shall mean
     and be determined as follows (i) in the event that the Stock is listed on
     an established exchange, the closing price of the Stock on the date when
     the Stock Option is granted to the Director (the "Relevant Date") or, if no
     trade did occur on that day, on the next preceding day on which a trade
     occurred; or (ii) in the event that the Stock is not listed on an
     established exchange, but is then quoted on the National Association of
     Security Dealers Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ"), the average of the
     average of the closing bid and asked quotations of the Stock for the five
     (5) trading days immediately preceding the Relevant Date. In either case,
     in the event that no closing bid or asked quotation is available on one (1)
     or more of such trading days, the fair market value shall be determined by
     reference to the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the Relevant
     Date on which closing bid and asked quotations are available.

7.   CONTINUED RELATIONSHIP. Nothing in the Plan or any Stock Option shall
     confer upon any Directors or any right to continue his or her relationship
     with the Corporation as a director, or

                                       3

<PAGE>

     limit or affect any rights, powers or privileges that the Corporation or it
     affiliates may have to supervise, discipline and terminate such Director,
     and the relationships thereof.

8.   GENERAL RESTRICTIONS. Each Stock Option shall be subject to the requirement
     and provision that if at any time the Board determines it necessary or
     desirable as a condition of or in consideration of making such Stock
     Option, or the purchase or issuance or Stock thereunder, (a) the listing,
     registration or qualification of the Stock subject to the Stock Option, or
     the Stock Option itself, upon any securities exchange or under any federal
     or state securities or other laws, (b) the approval of any governmental
     authority, or (c) an agreement by the Director with respect to disposition
     of any Stock (including without limitation that at the time of the
     Director's exercise of the Stock Option, any Stock thereby acquired is
     being and will be acquired solely for investment purposes and without any
     intention to sell or distribute such Stock), then such Stock Option shall
     not be consummated in whole or in part unless such listing, registration,
     qualification, approval or agreement shall have been appropriately effected
     or obtained to the satisfaction of the Board and legal counsel for the
     Corporation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Director
     shall not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Stock
     acquired pursuant to a Stock Option unless at least six (6) months have
     elapsed from the date the Stock Option was granted, the election of such
     transaction is made at least six months following the date of the
     Director's most recent "opposite-way election" under any plan of the
     Corporation or the transaction is otherwise made in accordance with Section
     16 of the Exchange Act, as the same may be amended, if at the time of such
     disposition the Director is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

9.   RIGHTS. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Director shall have
     the rights as a holder of the Stock subject thereto unless and until one or
     more certificates for the shares of such Stock are issued and delivered to
     the Director. No adjustments shall be made for dividends, either ordinary
     or extraordinary, or any other distributions with respect to Stock, whether
     made in cash, securities or other property, or any rights with respect
     thereto, for which the record date is prior to the date that any
     certificates for Stock subject to a Stock Option are issued to the Director
     pursuant to his or her exercise thereof. No Stock Option, or the grant
     thereof, shall limit or affect the right or power of the Corporation or its
     affiliates to adjust, reclassify, recapitalize, reorganize or otherwise
     change its or their capital or business structure, or to merge,
     consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell any or all of its or their
     business, property or assets.

10.  ADJUSTMENTS. In the event that the shares of Common Stock of the
     Corporation, as presently constituted, shall be changed into or exchanged
     for a different number or kind of shares of stock or other securities of
     the Corporation or of other securities of the Corporation or of another
     corporation (whether by reason of merger, consolidation, recapitalization,
     reclassification, split-up, combination of shares or otherwise) or if the
     number of such shares of stock shall be increased through the payment of a
     stock dividend, then, there shall be substituted for or added to each share
     of stock of the Corporation which was theretofore appropriated, or which
     thereafter may become subject to an option under the Plan, the number and
     kind of shares of stock or other securities into which each outstanding
     share of the stock of the Corporation shall be so changed or for which each
     such share shall be exchanged or to which each such shares shall be
     entitled, as the case may be. Outstanding Options shall also be
     appropriately amended as to price and other terms, as may be necessary to
     reflect the foregoing events. If there shall be any other change in the
     number or kind of the outstanding shares of the stock of the Corporation,
     or of any stock or other securities in which such stock shall have been
     changed, or for which it shall have been exchanged, and if a majority of
     the disinterested members of the Board shall, in its sole

                                       4

<PAGE>

     discretion, determine that such change equitably requires an adjustment in
     any Option which was theretofore granted or which may thereafter be granted
     under the Plan, then such adjustment shall be made in accordance with such
     determination.

     The grant of an Option pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the
     right or power of the Corporation to make adjustments, reclassifications,
     reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, to merge,
     to consolidate, to dissolve, to liquidate or to sell or transfer all or any
     part of its business or assets.

     A dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation, or a merger or
     consolidation in which the Corporation is not the surviving Corporation,
     shall cause each outstanding Option to terminate, except to the extent
     that another corporation may and does in the transaction assume
     and continue to the Option or substitute its own options.

     Fractional shares resulting from any adjustment in Options pursuant to this
     Article 10 may be settled as a majority of the disinterested members of the
     Board or the Committee (as the case may be) shall determine.

     To the extent that the foregoing adjustments relate to stock or securities
     of the Corporation, such adjustments shall be made by a majority of the
     disinterested members of the Board, whose determination in that respect
     shall be final, binding and conclusive. Notice of any adjustments shall be
     given by the Corporation to each holder of an Option which shall be so
     adjusted.

11.  FORFEITURE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, if the
     involved Director has been engaged in fraud, embezzlement, theft,
     commission of a felony, or dishonesty in the course of his or her
     relationship with the Corporation or its affiliates that has damaged them,
     or that the Director has disclosed trade secrets of the Corporation or its
     affiliates, the Director shall forfeit all rights under and to all
     unexercised Stock Options, and all exercised Stock Options under which the
     Corporation has not yet delivered certificates for shares of Stock (as the
     case may be), and all rights to receive Stock Options shall be
     automatically canceled.

12.  MISCELLANEOUS. Any reference contained in this Plan to a particular section
     or provision of law, rule or regulation, including but not limited to the
     Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the Exchange Act, both as amended, shall
     include any subsequently enacted or promulgated section or provision of
     law, rule or regulation, as the case may be, of similar import. With
     respect to persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, transactions
     under this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of
     Rule 16b-3 or any successor rule that may be promulgated by the Securities
     and Exchange Commission. To the extent any provision of this Plan fails to
     so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by
     applicable law, subject to the provisions of paragraph 13 below. Where used
     in this Plan: the plural shall include the singular, and unless the context
     otherwise clearly requires, the singular shall include the plural; and, the
     term "affiliates" shall mean each and every subsidiary of the Corporation.
     The captions of the numbered paragraphs contained in this Plan are for
     convenience only, and shall not limit or affect the meaning, interpretation
     or construction of any of the provisions of the Plan.

13.  AMENDMENT. The Plan may not be amended, suspended or terminated except as
     may be provided for herein, or as may be required under the provisions of
     the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Section 16 of the
     Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder. If any provision of
     the Plan would cause a non-employee director not to be a "disinterested
     person"

                                       5
<PAGE>

     within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act as then applicable
     to any employee benefit plan of the Corporation, such provision shall be
     construed or deemed amended to the extent necessary to preserve such
     non-employee director's status as a "disinterested person".

14.  TAXES. The issuance of shares of Stock under the Plan shall be subject to
     any applicable taxes or other laws or regulations of the United States of
     America and any state or local authority having jurisdiction thereover.

                                   THE CREDIT

         2.1. COMMITMENT. From and including the date of this Agreement and
prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, each Lender severally agrees,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make Loans
to the Borrower from time to time prior to the Revolving Credit Termination
Date, provided THAT the making of any such Loan will not cause the total of the
outstanding principal balance of all Loans to exceed the Aggregate Commitment.
Each Lender shall fund its Percentage of each Advance and no Lender will be
required to fund any amount, which when aggregated with such Lender's Percentage
of all other Advances then outstanding would exceed such Lender's Commitment.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and
reborrow at any time prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date. The
Commitments of each Lender to lend hereunder shall expire on the Revolving
Credit Termination Date.

         2.2. FINAL PRINCIPAL PAYMENT. Any outstanding Advances and all other
unpaid Obligations shall be paid in full by the Borrower on the Facility
Termination Date.

         2.3. LOANS. Each Advance hereunder shall consist of Loans made from the

Commitments bear to the Aggregate Commitment. The Advances may be CBR Advances
or LIBOR Advances, or a combination thereof, selected by the Borrower in
accordance with SECTIONS 2.10 and 2.11.

         2.4. APPLICABLE MARGINS. The CBR Applicable Margin and the LIBOR
Applicable Margin to be used in calculating the interest rate applicable to
different Types of Advances shall vary from time to time in accordance with the
long-term unsecured debt ratings from Moody's, Duff & Phelps and S&P of the
General Partner and the Borrower. In the event the General Partner and the
Borrower have different ratings, the rating of the higher rated entity shall be
used. In the event the rating agencies are split on the rating for the higher
rated entity, the second highest rating for such entity shall be deemed to be
the applicable rating (e.g., if the higher rated entity's Moody's debt rating is
Baa1, its S&P debt rating is BBB and its Duff and Phelps' rating is BBB, then
the Applicable Margins shall be computed based on the S&P rating), and the
Applicable Margins shall be adjusted effective on the next Business Day
following any change in the higher rated entity's Moody's debt rating, S&P's
debt rating and/or Duff & Phelps'

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

debt rating, as the case may be. The applicable debt ratings and the Applicable
Margins are set forth in the table attached as EXHIBIT A. In the event that S&P,
Duff & Phelps or Moody's or any two of them shall discontinue their ratings of
the REIT industry, the General Partner or the Borrower, a mutually agreeable
substitute rating agency (or two mutually agreeable substitute agencies if two
of the existing rating agencies discontinue such ratings) shall be selected by
the Required Lenders and the Borrower. If the Required Lenders and the Borrower
cannot agree on a substitute rating agency or substitute rating agencies within
thirty (30) days of such discontinuance, or if S&P, Duff & Phelps, and Moody's
shall discontinue their ratings of the REIT industry, the Borrower, or the
General Partner, the Applicable Margin to be used for the calculation of
interest on Advances hereunder shall be the highest Applicable Margin for each
Type.

         If a rating agency downgrade or discontinuance results in an increase
in the CBR Applicable Margin or the LIBOR Applicable Margin and if such increase
is reversed and the affected Applicable Margin is restored within ninety (90)
days thereafter, at the Borrower's request, the Borrower shall receive a credit
against interest next due the Lenders equal to interest accrued from time to
time during such period of downgrade or discontinuance and actually paid by the
Borrower on the Advances at the differential between such Applicable Margins.

         2.5. FACILITY FEE. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee (the "FACILITY FEE")
calculated at a per annum percentage ("FACILITY FEE RATE") of the total
Aggregate Commitment. The Facility Fee Rate shall vary from time to time based
on the Borrower's or General Partner's long term unsecured debt rating as set
forth in the table attached hereto as EXHIBIT A, payable quarterly in arrears on
the last day of each calendar quarter hereafter beginning September 30, 1999 and
on the Facility Termination Date.

         2.6. UPFRONT FEE. The Borrower will pay to Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Lenders on or before the date hereof the fees specified in that
certain Fee Letter dated June 7, 1999. The Administrative Agent shall distribute
such fees to the Lenders in accordance with a separate agreement between the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

         2.7. CONVERSION AND EXTENSION FEES. If Borrower exercises its option
pursuant to a Term Loan Request under SECTION 2.25 of this Agreement to convert
the aggregate outstanding Loans to a term loan, Borrower shall pay each Lender a
fee equal to 0.175% of the aggregate of such Lender's outstanding Loans on the
initial Revolving Credit Termination Date. If the Facility is extended pursuant
to an Extension Request under SECTION 2.25 of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay
each Continuing Lender a fee equal to 0.175% of such Continuing Lender's
Commitment immediately after the extension and reallocation of all of the
Commitments pursuant to SECTION 2.25.

         2.8. MINIMUM AMOUNT OF EACH ADVANCE. Each LIBOR Advance shall be in the
minimum amount of $2,000,000 (and in multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess
thereof), and each CBR Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 (and
in multiples of $500,000 if in excess thereof), provided, however, that any CBR
Advance may be in the amount of the unused Aggregate Commitment.

                                      -16-

         2.9. OPTIONAL PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS. The Borrower may from time to time
pay, without penalty or premium, all or any part of outstanding CBR Advances
upon two Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower
may from time to time pay a LIBOR Advance, provided a LIBOR Advance may not be
paid prior to the last day of the applicable LIBOR Interest Period unless
accompanied by any amount due pursuant to Section 4.4.

         2.10. METHOD OF SELECTING TYPES AND INTEREST PERIODS FOR NEW ADVANCES.
The Borrower shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each LIBOR
Advance, the LIBOR Interest Period applicable to each Advance from time to time.
The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a
"Borrowing Notice") (i) not later than 10:00 a.m. Chicago time, at least one (1)
Business Day before the Borrowing Date of each CBR Advance and (ii) not later
than 10:00 a.m. Chicago time, at least three (3) Business Days before the
Borrowing Date for each LIBOR Advance, specifying:

               (a)    the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such
                      Advance,

               (b)    the aggregate amount of such Advance,

               (c)    the Type of Advance selected, and

               (d)    in the case of each LIBOR Advance, the LIBOR Interest
                      Period applicable thereto.

         Not later than noon (Chicago time) on each Borrowing Date, each Lender
shall make available its Loan or Loans, in funds immediately available in
Chicago to the Administrative Agent at its address specified pursuant to ARTICLE
XIV. The Lenders shall not be obligated to match fund their LIBOR Advances. The
Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available
to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address.

         No LIBOR Interest Period may end after the Facility Termination Date
and, unless all of the Lenders otherwise agree in writing, in no event may there
be more than five (5) different LIBOR Interest Periods for LIBOR Advances
outstanding at any one time.

         2.11. CONVERSION AND CONTINUATION OF OUTSTANDING ADVANCES. CBR Advances
shall continue as CBR Advances unless and until such CBR Advances are converted
into LIBOR Advances. Each LIBOR Advance shall continue as a LIBOR Advance until
the end of the then applicable LIBOR Interest Period therefor, at which time
such LIBOR Advance shall be automatically converted into an CBR Advance unless
the Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation
Notice requesting that, at the end of such LIBOR Interest Period, such LIBOR
Advance continue as a LIBOR Advance for the same or another LIBOR Interest
Period. Subject to the terms of SECTION 2.8, the Borrower may elect from time to
time to convert all or any part of an Advance of any Type into any other Type of
Advance; provided that any conversion of any LIBOR Advance shall be made on, and
only on, the last day of the LIBOR Interest Period applicable thereto. The
Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a
"Conversion/Continuation Notice") of each conversion of an Advance or
continuation of a LIBOR Advance not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at
least one Business Day, in the case of a conversion into an CBR Advance, or

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

three Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a
LIBOR Advance, prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation,
specifying:

               (i)    the requested date which shall be a Business Day, of such
                      conversion or continuation;

               (ii)   the aggregate amount and Type of the Advance which is to
                      be converted or continued; and

               (iii)  the amount and Type(s) of Advance(s) into which such
                      Advance is to be converted or continued and, in the case
                      of a conversion into or continuation of a LIBOR Advance,
                      the duration of the LIBOR Interest Period applicable
                      thereto.

         2.12. CHANGES IN INTEREST RATE, ETC. Each CBR Advance shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and
including the date such Advance is made or is converted from a LIBOR Advance
into a CBR Advance pursuant to SECTION 2.11 to but excluding the date it becomes
due or is converted into a LIBOR Advance pursuant to SECTION 2.11 hereof, at a
rate per annum equal to the CBR Rate for such day. Changes in the rate of
interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a CBR Advance will take
effect simultaneously with each change in the Corporate Base Rate. Each LIBOR
Advance shall bear interest from and including the first day of the LIBOR
Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such
LIBOR Interest Period at the interest rate determined as applicable to such
LIBOR Advance.

         2.13. RATES APPLICABLE AFTER DEFAULT. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in SECTION 2.10 or 2.11, during the continuance of a Default
or Unmatured Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the
Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders
notwithstanding any provision of SECTION 9.2 requiring unanimous consent of the
Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that no Advance may be made as,
converted into or continued beyond its current term as a LIBOR Advance. During
the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by
notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the
Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of SECTION 9.2 requiring
unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that (i)
each LIBOR Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable LIBOR
Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such LIBOR Interest Period
plus 2% per annum and (ii) each CBR Advance shall bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to the CBR Rate otherwise applicable to the CBR Advance plus 2% per
annum; provided that such rates shall become applicable automatically without
notice to the Borrower if a Default occurs under SECTION 8.7 or SECTION 8.8.

         2.15. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

         2.16. METHOD OF PAYMENT. All payments of the Obligations hereunder
shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately
available funds to the Administrative

                                      -18-
<PAGE>

Agent at the Administrative Agent's address specified pursuant to ARTICLE XIV,
or at any other Lending Installation of the Administrative Agent specified in
writing by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, by noon (local time) on the
date when due and shall be applied by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders
in accordance with the class or type of Obligation being paid. Each payment
delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be
delivered by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds
that the Administrative Agent received at its address specified pursuant to
ARTICLE XIV or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the
Administrative Agent from such Lender promptly, which is expected to be by the
close of business on the same Business Day received by Administrative Agent if
received by noon (local time) but shall in any event not be later than the next
Business Day, PROVIDED that the Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lenders
interest thereon, at the lesser of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii)
the rate of interest applicable to such Loans, from the Business Day such funds
are received by the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds
(PROVIDED, if such funds are not received by the Administrative Agent by noon
(local time), such period shall commence on the Business Day immediately
following the day such funds are received) until such funds are paid to such
Lenders. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to charge the account of
the Borrower maintained with First Chicago for each payment of principal,
interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder.

         2.17. NOTES; TELEPHONIC NOTICES. Each Lender is hereby authorized to
record the principal amount of each of its Loans and each repayment on the
schedule attached to its Note, provided, however, that the failure to so record
shall not affect the Borrower's obligations under such Note. Each Lender's books
and records, including without limitation, the information, if any, recorded by
the Lender on the Schedule attached to its Note, shall be deemed to be PRIMA
FACIA correct. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of
Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or
persons the Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be
acting on behalf of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the
Administrative Agent a written confirmation signed by an Authorized Officer of
each telephonic notice, if such confirmation is requested by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect
from the action taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records
of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

         2.18. INTEREST PAYMENT DATES; INTEREST AND FEE BASIS. Interest accrued
on each Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first
such date to occur after the date hereof, and at maturity, whether by
acceleration or otherwise. Interest accrued on each LIBOR Advance shall also be
payable on any date on which the LIBOR Advance is prepaid (provided that nothing
herein shall authorize a prepayment which is not otherwise permitted hereunder).
Interest and Facility Fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the
basis of a 360-day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is
made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is
received prior to noon (local time) at the place of payment. If any payment of
principal of or interest on an Advance shall become due on a day which is not a
Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day
and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be
included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

                                      -19-
<PAGE>

         2.19. NOTIFICATION OF ADVANCES, INTEREST RATES AND PREPAYMENTS.
Promptly after receipt thereof (but in no event later than one Business Day
prior to the proposed Borrowing Date for a CBR Advance or three Business Days
prior to the proposed Borrowing Date for a LIBOR Advance) the Administrative
Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Borrowing Notice, Term
Loan Request, Extension Request, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment
notice received by it hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each
Lender of the interest rate applicable to each LIBOR Advance promptly upon
determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of
each change in the Corporate Base Rate.

         2.20. LENDING INSTALLATIONS. Each Lender may book its Loans at any
Lending Installation selected by such Lender and may change its Lending
Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any
such Lending Installation and the Notes shall be deemed held by each Lender for
the benefit of such Lending Installation. Each Lender may, by written or telex
notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, designate a Lending
Installation through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account Loan
payments are to be made.

         2.21. NON-RECEIPT OF FUNDS BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Unless the
Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent
prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative
Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case
of the Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such
payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made.
The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of
such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such
assumption. If such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact
made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment
shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent
the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each
day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available
by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers
such amount at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Lender,
the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day or (ii) in the case of payment by
the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

         2.22. WITHHOLDING TAX EXEMPTION. At least five Business Days prior to
the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account
of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United
States of America, or a state thereof, agrees that it will deliver to each of
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United
States Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224, certifying in either case
that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the
Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income
taxes. Each Lender which so delivers a Form 1001 or 4224 further undertakes to
deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two additional
copies of such form (or a successor form) on or before the date that such form
expires (currently, three successive calendar years for Form 1001 and one
calendar year for Form 4224) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, and such
amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, in
each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this
Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States
federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change
in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such
delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable
or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such
form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any
deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

         2.23. USURY. This Agreement and each Note are subject to the express
condition that at no time shall the Borrower be obligated or required to pay
interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject any
Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of
the Maximum Legal Rate. If by the terms of this Agreement or the Loan Documents,
the Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the
principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate,
the interest rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be
immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in
excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in
reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All
sums paid or agreed to be paid to a Lender for the use, forbearance, or
detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the
full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of
interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of
interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as
the Loan is outstanding.

         2.24. APPLICATIONS OF MONEYS RECEIVED. All moneys collected or received
by the Administrative Agent on account of the Facility directly or indirectly,
shall be applied in the following order of priority:

               (i)   to the payment of all reasonable costs incurred in the
                     collection of such moneys of which the Administrative Agent
                     shall have given notice to the Borrower;

               (ii)  to the reimbursement of any yield protection due to the
                     Lenders in accordance with SECTION 4.1;

               (iii) to the payment of the Facility Fee to the Lenders, if then
                     due, in accordance with their Percentages and to the
                     payment of the Administrative Agent's Fee to the
                     Administrative Agent if then due;

               (iv)  (a) in case the entire unpaid principal of the Loan shall
                     not have become due and payable, the whole amount received
                     as interest then due to the Lenders (other than a
                     Defaulting Lender) as their respective Percentages appear,
                     together with the whole amount, if any, received as
                     principal to the Lenders as their respective Percentages
                     appear, or (b) in case the entire unpaid principal of the
                     Loan shall have become due and payable, as a

                                      -21-
<PAGE>

                     result of a Default or otherwise, to the payment of the
                     whole amount then due and payable on the Loan for
                     principal, together with interest thereon at the Default
                     Rate to the Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender) as
                     their respective Percentages appear until paid in full; and

               (v)   to the payment of any sums due to each Defaulting Lender as
                     their respective Percentages appear (provided that
                     Administrative Agent shall have the right to set-off
                     against such sums any amounts due from such Defaulting
                     Lender).

         2.25. CONVERSION AND EXTENSION OPTIONS.

         (a) The Borrower shall have the option to (1) convert the Revolving
Credit Termination Balance to a term loan maturing on April 14, 2001 (in which
case any unfunded portion of the Commitments shall be cancelled and the Facility
Termination Date shall be extended to April 14, 2001), provided no Default
exists (a "Term Loan Request"), or (2) request an extension to April 14, 2001 of
both the Revolving Credit Termination Date and the Facility Termination Date (an
"Extension Request"). Borrower must provide any such Term Loan Request or
Extension Request to the Administrative Agent no more than sixty (60) days prior
to the initial Revolving Credit Termination Date, and no less than thirty (30)
days prior to the initial Revolving Credit Termination Date, provided that if
Borrower issues an Extension Request and such request is not approved by the
Required Lenders, Borrower may issue a Term Loan Request within five (5) days of
notification that such request was not approved. Promptly upon receipt from the
Borrower of any notice pursuant to this SECTION 2.25, the Administrative Agent
shall notify each Lender of the contents of such notice and, in the case of an
Extension Request, shall request that such Lender approve the Extension Request.
If the Borrower issues a Term Loan Request, the Revolving Credit Termination
Balance shall be converted to a term loan in the manner described above without
the need for any consent or approval of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers,
the Lenders or any other party. Each Lender approving an Extension Request shall
deliver its written consent (a "Consent Notice") to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the fifteenth (15th) day after the date on
which such notice is sent by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders (the
"Response Date"). Each Lender may give or withhold its consent to any Extension
Request in its sole discretion. The extension pursuant to any Extension Request
shall only be effective if such extension is approved by the Required Lenders,
and such extension shall not be effective with respect to any Lender which (i)
by notice (a "Withdrawal Notice") to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
prior to the Response Date declines to consent to such Extension Request or (ii)
fails to respond to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent prior to the
Response Date (each such Lender, a "Withdrawing Lender" and each Lender other
than a Withdrawing Lender, a "Continuing Lender"). The Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders whether the Extension Request
was approved or denied. If the consent of the Required Lenders to any such
Extension Request is received by the Administrative Agent on or prior to the
Response Date, (i) the new Revolving Credit Termination Date shall become
effective on the initial Revolving Credit Termination Date, (ii) the Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower and each Lender of the new Revolving Credit
Termination Date, (iii) the Commitments of the Continuing Lenders shall be
extended on the initial Revolving Credit Termination Date and (iv) the
Withdrawing Lenders

                                      -22-
<PAGE>

shall be paid in full and their Commitments shall be cancelled or assumed by new
lenders selected by the Borrower and the Arrangers on the initial Revolving
Credit Termination Date. Upon repayment of a Withdrawing Lender's Loans, such
Lender shall be released from this Agreement, its Percentage of the Aggregate
Commitment, and all of the rights and obligations under the Agreement as of the
date of such release. Such Lender will remain responsible for all obligations
accruing prior to the date of such release. Concurrently with such release, the
Aggregate Commitment shall be reduced by the Commitment of the Lender that is
released and the Percentages shall be recalculated, unless the Borrower arranges
for a new lender to assume such Lender's Commitment by assignment in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement

         (b) A Withdrawing Lender shall be obliged, at the request of the
Borrower and the Arrangers and subject to such Withdrawing Lender receiving
payment in full of all amounts owing to it under this Agreement, to assign,
without recourse or warranty and by an assignment agreement substantially in the
form of "EXHIBIT H" attached hereto, all of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement to another financial institution nominated by the Borrower and
the Arrangers and willing to participate in the facility through the new
Revolving Credit Termination Date in place of such Withdrawing Lender; provided
that such assignee satisfies all of the requirements of this Agreement.

                             CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

         4.1. YIELD PROTECTION. If any law or any governmental or
quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or
not having the force of law), or any interpretation thereof, or the compliance
of any Lender therewith (the "Yield Related Law"),

              (i)   subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation
                    to any tax, duty, charge or withholding on or from payments
                    due from the Borrower (excluding federal, state and local
                    income or franchise taxes on the overall income of any
                    Lender or applicable Lending Installation), or changes the
                    basis of taxation of payments to any Lender in respect of
                    its Loans or other amounts due it hereunder, or

              (ii)  imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve,
                    assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar
                    requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
                    account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any
                    applicable Lending Installation (other than reserves and
                    assessments taken into account in determining the interest
                    rate applicable to LIBOR Advances), or

                                      -23-

              (iii) imposes any other condition the result of which is to
                    increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending
                    Installation of making, funding or maintaining loans or
                    reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any
                    applicable Lending Installation in connection with loans, or
                    requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation
                    to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of
                    loans held or interest received by it, by an amount deemed
                    material by such Lender,

then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay such
Lender that portion of such increased expense incurred or reduction in an amount
received which such Lender determines is attributable to making, funding and
maintaining its Loans and its Commitment. Within twenty (20) days after such
Lender makes any such demand, Borrower may repay all of such Lender's Loans, so
long as no Default exists at the time of such election and the Yield Related Law
affects the yield of less than all of the Lenders. Upon election of such
repayment option and repayment of such Lender's Loans, such Lender shall be
released from this Agreement, its Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment, and
all of the rights and obligations under the Agreement as of the date of such
release. Such Lender will remain responsible for all obligations accruing prior
to the date of such release. Concurrently with such release, the Aggregate
Commitment shall be reduced by the Commitment of the Lender that is released and
the Percentages shall be recalculated, unless the Borrower arranges for a new
lender to assume such Lender's Commitment by assignment in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.

         4.2. CHANGES IN CAPITAL ADEQUACY REGULATIONS. If a Lender determines
the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, any
Lending Installation of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender
is increased as a result of a Change (as hereinafter defined), then, within
fifteen days of demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay such Lender the
amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the
portion on such increased capital which such Lender determines is attributable
to this Agreement, its Loans, or its obligation to make Loans hereunder (after
taking into account such Lender's policies as to capital adequacy). "CHANGE"
means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the Risk-Based Capital
Guidelines or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or
quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of this
Agreement which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be
maintained by any Lender or any Lending Installation or any corporation
controlling any Lender. "RISK-BASED CAPITAL GUIDELINES" means (i) the risk-based
capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement,
including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations
promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States implementing the
July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory
Practices Entitled "International Convergence of Capital Measurements and
Capital Standards," including transition rules, and any amendments to such
regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement.

         4.3. AVAILABILITY OF LIBOR ADVANCES. If any Lender determines that
maintenance of any of its LIBOR Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would
violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having
the force of law, the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of
LIBOR Advances and require any LIBOR Advances to be repaid; or

                                      -24-
<PAGE>

if the Required Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type or maturity
appropriate to match fund LIBOR Advances are not available, the Administrative
Agent shall suspend the availability of LIBOR Advances with respect to any LIBOR
Advances made after the date of any such determination, or (ii) an interest rate
applicable to a LIBOR Advance does not accurately reflect the cost of making a
LIBOR Advance, then, if for any reason whatsoever the provisions of SECTION 4.1
are inapplicable, the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of
LIBOR Advances with respect to any LIBOR Advances made after the date of any
such determination.

         4.4. FUNDING INDEMNIFICATION. If any payment of a LIBOR Advance occurs
on a date which is not the last day of the applicable LIBOR Interest Period,
whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a LIBOR Advance is
not made on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason other than default
by the Lenders, the Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost
incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or
cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the LIBOR
Advance.

         4.5. LENDER STATEMENTS; SURVIVAL OF INDEMNITY. To the extent reasonably
possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with
respect to its LIBOR Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such
Lender under SECTIONS 4.1 and 4.2 or to avoid the unavailability of a Type of a
LIBOR Advance under SECTION 4.3, so long as such designation is not
disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of
such Lender as to the amount due, if any, under SECTIONS 4.1, 4.2 or 4.4. Such
written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon
which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and
binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of
amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a LIBOR Loan shall be
calculated as though each Lender funded its LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a
deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a
reference in determining the LIBOR Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact
that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified
in the written statement shall be payable on demand after receipt by the
Borrower of the written statement. The obligations of the Borrower under
SECTIONS 4.1, 4.2 and 4.4 shall survive payment of the Obligations and
termination of this Agreement.

be required to pay the probable liability of the General Partner, the Borrower

warranties is true and correct on and as of the Closing Date except to the

true and correct, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect:

               (i)    To the best knowledge of, respectively, the General
                      Partner or the Borrower, the Projects of such entity and
                      its Subsidiaries do not contain, and have not previously
                      contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in
                      amounts or concentrations which constitute or constituted

a comprehensive review and assessment of the Borrower's computer applications

         9.1. ACCELERATION. If any Default described in SECTION 8.7 or 8.8
occurs with respect to the Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make
Loans hereunder shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall
immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of
the Administrative Agent or any Lender. If any other Default occurs, the
Required Lenders may terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make
Loans hereunder or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both,
whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower
hereby expressly waives.

         If, within ten (10) days after acceleration of the maturity of the
Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans
hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in
SECTION 8.7 or 8.8 with respect to the Borrower) and before any judgment or
decree for the payment of the Obligations shall have been obtained or entered,
the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the
Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, rescind and annul such
acceleration and/or termination.

         9.2. AMENDMENTS. Subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE IX, the
Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent in writing of the
Required Lenders) and the Borrower may enter into agreements supplemental hereto
for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or
changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrower hereunder or
waiving any Default hereunder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such supplemental
agreement shall, without the consent of the Arrangers, waive any Default under,
or modify or amend Sections 7.20(iii), (iv) or (v); and PROVIDED, FURTHER,
HOWEVER, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of all
Lenders:

              (i)   Extend the Facility Termination Date (other than pursuant to
                    SECTION 2.25 of this Agreement) or forgive all or any
                    portion of the principal amount of any Loan or accrued
                    interest thereon or the Facility Fee, reduce the Applicable
                    Margins on the underlying interest rate options or otherwise
                    modify or add to such interest rate options, or extend the
                    time of payment of any of the Obligations.

              (ii)  Release the General Partner from the Guaranty.

              (iii) Reduce the percentage specified in the definition of
                    Required Lenders.

                    assume its rights under this Agreement.

              (vi)  Amend this SECTION 9.2.

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the
Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the
Administrative Agent, and no amendment increasing the Commitment of any
Lender shall be effective without the written consent of such Lender.

         9.3. PRESERVATION OF RIGHTS. No delay or omission of the Lenders or the
Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair
such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence
therein, and the making of a Loan notwithstanding the existence of a Default or
the inability of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Loan
shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise
of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the
terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid
unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to SECTION 9.2, and
then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies
contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all
shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders until the
Obligations have been paid in full.

respect of the Loan Documents shall be paid by the Borrower, together with
interest and penalties, if any.

                                   ARTICLE XI

              THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND AGREEMENTS AMONG LENDERS

         11.1. APPOINTMENT. Subject to the provisions of SECTION 11.11, The
First National Bank of Chicago is hereby appointed Administrative Agent
hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders
irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such
Lender. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such upon the express
conditions contained in this ARTICLE XI. The Administrative Agent shall not have
a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Borrower or any Lender by reason of
this Agreement.

         11.2. POWERS. The Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such
powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the
Administrative Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as
are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no
implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any
action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents
to be taken by the Administrative Agent.

         11.3. GENERAL IMMUNITY. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its
directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrower, the
Lenders or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them
hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or
therewith except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

         11.4. NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOANS, RECITALS, ETC. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees
shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify
(i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan
Document or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any
of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document,
including, without limitation, any agreement by an obligor to furnish
information directly to each Lender; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition
specified in ARTICLE V, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent; (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of any
Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection
therewith; or (v) the value, sufficiency, creation, perfection or priority of
any interest in any collateral security. The Administrative Agent shall have no
duty to disclose to the Lenders information that is not required to be furnished
by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent at such time, but is voluntarily
furnished by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (either in its capacity as
Administrative Agent or in its individual capacity).

         11.5. ACTION ON INSTRUCTIONS OF LENDERS. The Administrative Agent shall
in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written
instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such instructions and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the
Lenders and on all holders of Notes. The Administrative Agent shall be fully
justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any
other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by
the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may
incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

                                      -48-
<PAGE>

         11.6. EMPLOYMENT OF AGENTS AND COUNSEL. The Administrative Agent may
execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder and under any other
Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and so long
as it exercises reasonable care in the selection of such parties, the
Administrative Agent shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money
or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or
misconduct of any such parties. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to the agency hereby created
and its duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

         11.7. RELIANCE ON DOCUMENTS; COUNSEL. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter,
telegram, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct
and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and, in respect
to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Administrative
Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Administrative Agent.

         11.8. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S REIMBURSEMENT AND INDEMNIFICATION. The
Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent ratably in
proportion to their respective Commitments (i) for any reasonable amounts not
reimbursed by the Borrower for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to
reimbursement by the Borrower under the Loan Documents including reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery
of the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection
with the administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents and (iii) for any
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered
in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby, or the
enforcement of any of the terms thereof or of any such other documents, PROVIDED
that no Lender shall be liable for (i) any of the foregoing to the extent they
arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent, or (ii) any costs or expenses of the Administrative Agent's in-house
legal staff and personnel. The obligations of the Lenders under this SECTION
11.8 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

         11.9. RIGHTS AS A LENDER. In the event the Administrative Agent is a
Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers and the
same duties and obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document as any
Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent,
and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, at any time when the Administrative
Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the
Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent may
accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust,
debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, with the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary is not restricted hereby
from engaging with any other Person.

         11.10. LENDER CREDIT DECISION. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender and based on the

                                      -49-
<PAGE>

financial statements prepared by the Borrower and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender
also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

         11.11. SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent may
resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the
Borrower, and the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have automatically
resigned if it is no longer a Lender, such resignation in either case to be
effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or, if no
successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, forty-five days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intention to resign or ceases
to be a Lender, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent may be removed at
any time with good cause by written notice received by the Administrative Agent
from the Required Lenders, such removal to be effective on the date specified by
the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders
shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a
successor Administrative Agent, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association (but not its successors and assigns) may, at its option,
appoint itself as successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative
Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within thirty days
after the resigning Administrative Agent's giving notice of its intention to
resign, then the resigning Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the
Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. If the
Administrative Agent has resigned or been removed and no successor
Administrative Agent has been appointed within 45 days, the Lenders shall
perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrower
shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender
and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor
Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such
successor Administrative Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor
Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank (or a subsidiary thereof) having
capital and retained earnings of at least $500,000,000, except that if the
successor Administrative Agent is a subsidiary of a bank, such capital and
retained earnings requirement shall apply only to the parent bank. Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the resigning or removed Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the
resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the resigning or removed
Administrative Agent and the successor Administrative Agent shall pro rate any
agency fees, and the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan
Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of an
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this ARTICLE XI shall continue in effect
for the benefit of such Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

                                      -50-
<PAGE>

         11.12. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. If a Lender becomes aware of a Default or
Unmatured Default, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
fact. Upon receipt of such notice that a Default or Unmatured Default has
occurred, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders of such
fact.

         11.13. REQUESTS FOR APPROVAL. If the Administrative Agent requests in
writing the consent or approval of a Lender, such Lender shall respond and
either approve or disapprove definitively in writing to the Administrative Agent
within ten Business Days (or sooner if such notice specifies a shorter period
for responses based on Administrative Agent's good faith determination that
circumstances exist warranting its request for an earlier response) after such
written request from the Administrative Agent. If the Lender does not so
respond, that Lender shall be deemed to have approved the request, provided the
initial notice references such deemed approval.

         11.14. COPIES OF DOCUMENTS. Within fifteen Business Days after a
request by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for documents furnished to the
Administrative Agent by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall provide
copies of such documents to such Lender.

         11.15. DEFAULTING LENDERS. At such time as a Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender's right to vote on matters which are
subject to the consent or approval of the Required Lenders, each affected Lender
or all Lenders shall be immediately suspended until such time as the Lender is
no longer a Defaulting Lender. If a Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its pro
rata share of any Advance and until such time as such Defaulting Lender
subsequently funds its pro rata share of such Advance, all Obligations owing to
such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be subordinated in right of payment, as
provided in the following sentence, to the prior payment in full of all
principal of, interest on and fees relating to the Loans funded by the other
Lenders in connection with any such Advance in which the Defaulting Lender has
not funded its pro rata share (such principal, interest and fees being referred
to as "Senior Loans" for the purposes of this section). All amounts paid by the
Borrower and otherwise due to be applied to the Obligations owing to such
Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms hereof shall be distributed by the
Administrative Agent to the other Lenders in accordance with their respective
pro rata shares (recalculated for the purposes hereof to exclude the Defaulting
Lender) until all Senior Loans have been paid in full. After the Senior Loans
have been paid in full equitable adjustments will be made in connection with
future payments by the Borrower to the extent a portion of the Senior Loans had
been repaid with amounts that otherwise would have been distributed to a
Defaulting Lender but for the operation of this SECTION 11.15. This provision
governs only the relationship among the Administrative Agent, each Defaulting
Lender and the other Lenders; nothing hereunder shall limit the obligation of
the Borrower to repay all Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
The provisions of this section shall apply and be effective regardless of
whether a Default occurs and is continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (ii) any instruction of the
Borrower as to its desired application of payments or (iii) the suspension of
such Defaulting Lender's right to vote on matters which are subject to the
consent or approval of the Required Lenders or all Lenders.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                            SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

         12.1. SETOFF. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of
the Lenders under applicable law, if the Borrower becomes insolvent, however
evidenced, or any Default or Unmatured Default occurs, any and all deposits
(including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not
collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by
any Lender to or for the credit or account of the Borrower may be offset and
applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or
not the Obligations, or any part hereof, shall then be due. The Lenders agree
for the benefit of each other Lender (but not the Borrower) that any set-off
shall first be applied to the Obligations before being applied to any other
Indebtedness owing to such Lender.

         12.2. RATABLE PAYMENTS. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise,
has payment made to it upon its Loans (other than payments received pursuant to
SECTIONS 4.1, 4.2 or 4.4) in a greater proportion than that received by any
other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of
the Loans held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will
hold its ratable proportion of Loans. If any Lender, whether in connection with
setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives
collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be
subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action
necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably
in proportion to their Loans. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal
process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

         13.1. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The terms and provisions of the Loan
Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the
Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that (i) the
Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the
Loan Documents and (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance
with SECTION 13.3. Notwithstanding clause (ii) of this SECTION 13.1, any Lender
may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its
Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that no such assignment
shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder. The
Administrative Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for
all purposes hereof unless and until such payee complies with SECTION 13.3 in
the case of an assignment thereof or, in the case of any other transfer, a
written notice of the transfer is filed with the Administrative Agent. Any
assignee or transferee of a Note agrees by acceptance thereof to be bound by all
the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or
consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such
authority or consent is the holder of any Note, shall be conclusive and binding
on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such Note or of any Note or
Notes issued in exchange therefor.

                                      -52-
<PAGE>

         13.2. PARTICIPATIONS.

               13.2.1 PERMITTED PARTICIPANTS; EFFECT. Any Lender, in the
         ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law,
         at any time, may sell participating interests in any Loan owing to
         such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such
         Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents.
         Any Person to whom such a participating interest is sold is a
         "Participant". In the event of any such sale by a Lender of
         participating interests to a Participant, such Lender's obligations
         under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall
         remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
         performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder
         of any such Note for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all
         amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be
         determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating
         interests, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall
         continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection
         with such Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.

               13.2.2 VOTING RIGHTS. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to
         approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment,
         modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other
         than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan or
         Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which forgives
         principal, interest or fees or reduces the interest rate or fees
         payable with respect to any such Loan or Commitment or postpones any
         date fixed for any regularly-scheduled payment of principal of, or
         interest or fees on, any such Loan or Commitment or releases any
         guarantor of any such Loan or releases any substantial portion of
         collateral, if any, securing such Loan.

               13.2.3 BENEFIT OF SETOFF. The General Partner and the Borrower
         each agrees that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of
         setoff provided in SECTION 12.1 in respect of its participating
         interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent
         as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to
         it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, provided that each Lender
         shall retain the right of setoff provided in SECTION 12.1 with respect
         to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The
         Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by
         exercising the right of setoff provided in SECTION 13.1, agrees to
         share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise
         of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with
         SECTION 12.2 as if each Participant were a Lender.

         13.3. ASSIGNMENTS.

               13.3.1 PERMITTED ASSIGNMENTS. Any Lender, in the ordinary course
         of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time,
         may assign all or any portion (greater than or equal to $5,000,000 per
         assignee) of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. Any
         Person to whom such rights and obligations are assigned is a
         "Purchaser". Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of
         EXHIBIT H hereto or in such other form as may be agreed to by the
         parties thereto.

                                      -53-
<PAGE>

               The consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required prior
         to an assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which
         is not a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, except no consent shall be
         required if a Default exists. Such consent shall not be unreasonably
         withheld.

               13.3.2 EFFECT; EFFECTIVE DATE. Upon (i) delivery to the
         Administrative Agent of a notice of assignment, substantially in the
         form attached as EXHIBIT I to EXHIBIT H hereto (a "NOTICE OF
         ASSIGNMENT"), together with any consents required by Section 13.3.1,
         and (ii) payment of a $3,000 fee to the Administrative Agent for
         processing such assignment (unless the assignment is to an affiliate
         of the Lender in which case no fee shall be charged), such assignment
         shall become effective on the effective date specified in such Notice
         of Assignment. The Notice of Assignment shall contain a representation
         by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to
         make the purchase of the Commitment and Loans under the applicable
         assignment agreement are "plan assets" as defined under ERISA and that
         the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan
         Documents will not be "plan assets" under ERISA. On and after the
         effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all
         purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan
         Document executed by the Lenders and shall have all the rights and
         obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent
         as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or
         action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall
         be required to release the transferor Lender with respect to the
         percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and Loans assigned to such
         Purchaser. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser
         pursuant to this SECTION 13.3.2, the transferor Lender, the
         Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate
         arrangements so that replacement Notes are issued to such transferor
         Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued
         to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their
         Commitment, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

         13.4. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

         13.5. DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION. The General Partner and the
Borrower authorize each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or
any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law
(each a "TRANSFEREE") and any prospective Transferee any and all information in
such Lender's possession concerning the creditworthiness of the General Partner,

The Administrative Agent and
 the Lenders who are parties to the
 Credit Agreement described below

Gentlemen/Ladies:

       We are counsel for Duke-Weeks Realty Limited Partnership, an Indiana
limited partnership (the "Borrower"), and Duke Realty Corporation, an Indiana
corporation (the "General Partner" and, collectively with the Borrower, the
"Duke Entities"), and have represented the Duke Entities in connection with
their execution and delivery of a Revolving Credit Agreement among the Duke
Entities, The First National Bank of Chicago, individually and as Administrative
Agent, Banc One Capital Markets, Inc. as Lead Arranger and Joint Book Runner,
Wachovia Securities, Inc., as Lead Arranger and Joint Book Runner, Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association individually and as Co-Arranger, and the Lenders
named therein, providing for Advances in an aggregate principal amount of up to
$300,000,000 at any one time outstanding, dated as of July__, 1999 (the
"Agreement"). All capitalized terms used in this opinion and not otherwise
defined shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Agreement.

       We have examined the Duke Entities' articles of incorporation, by-laws,
resolutions, certificate of limited partnership, partnership agreement, the Loan
Documents and such other matters of fact and law which we deem necessary in
order to render this opinion. Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that:

         1. The General Partner, the Borrower and each of their Subsidiaries are
either duly incorporated corporations or duly qualified and formed limited
partnerships, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their
states of incorporation or formation.

         2. The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents by the Duke
Entities and the performance by the Duke Entities of their obligations under the
Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
and/or proceedings on the part of the Duke Entities and will not:

            (a) require any consent of the Duke Entities' shareholders or
         limited partners;

            (b) violate any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment,
         injunction, decree or award binding on the Duke Entities or any of
         their Subsidiaries or the Duke Entities' or any Subsidiary's articles
         of incorporation, by-laws, certificate of limited partnership,
         partnership agreement, or any indenture, instrument or agreement
         binding upon the Duke Entities or any of their Subsidiaries; or

            (c) result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien
         pursuant to the provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement
         binding upon the Duke Entities or any of their Subsidiaries.

<PAGE>

         3. The Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Duke
Entities and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Duke
Entities enforceable in accordance with their terms except to the extent the
enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and subject also to the
availability of equitable remedies if equitable remedies are sought.

         4. There is no litigation or proceeding against the Duke Entities or
any of their Subsidiaries which, if adversely determined, could have a Material
Adverse Effect.

         5. No approval, authorization, consent, adjudication or order of any
governmental authority, which has not been obtained by the Duke Entities or any
of their Subsidiaries, is required to be obtained by the Duke Entities or any of
their Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan
Documents, the borrowings under the Agreement or in connection with the payment
by the Duke Entities of their obligations under the Loan Documents.

         6. The General Partner qualifies as a real estate investment trust in
accordance with all applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.

       This opinion may be relied upon by the Administrative Agent, the
Arrangers, the Lenders and their participants, assignees and other transferees.

                                           Very truly yours,

                                           ------------------------------------

                              ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT

       This Assignment Agreement (this "Assignment Agreement") between _________
______________ (the "Assignor") and (the "Assignee") is dated as of ___________,
____. The parties hereto agree
as follows:

1.   PRELIMINARY STATEMENT. The Assignor is a party to a Credit Agreement
(which, as it may be amended, modified, renewed or extended from time to time is
herein called the "Credit Agreement") described in Item 1 of Schedule 1 attached
hereto ("Schedule 1"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Credit Agreement.

2.   ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION. The Assignor hereby sells and assigns to the
Assignee, and the Assignee hereby purchases and assumes from the Assignor, an
interest in and to the Assignor's rights and obligations under the Credit
Agreement such that after giving effect to such assignment the Assignee shall
have purchased pursuant to this Assignment Agreement the percentage interest
specified in Item 3 of Schedule 1 of all outstanding rights and obligations
under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The aggregate
Commitment (or Loans, if the applicable Commitment has been terminated)
purchased by the Assignee hereunder is set forth in Item 4 of Schedule 1.

3.   EFFECTIVE DATE. The effective date of this Assignment Agreement (the
"Effective Date") shall be the later of the date specified in Item 5 of
Schedule 1 or two (2) Business Days (or such shorter period agreed to by the
Administrative Agent) after a Notice of Assignment substantially in the form of
Exhibit "I" attached hereto has been delivered to the Agent. Such Notice of
Assignment must include the consent of the Agent required by SECTION 13.3.1 of
the Credit Agreement. In no event will the Effective Date occur if the payments
required to be made by the Assignee to the Assignor on the Effective Date under
SECTIONS 4 AND 5 hereof are not made on the proposed Effective Date. The
Assignor will notify the Assignee of the proposed Effective Date no later than
the Business Day prior to the proposed Effective Date. As of the Effective Date,
(i) the Assignee shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the
Loan Documents with respect to the rights and obligations assigned to the
Assignee hereunder and (ii) the Assignor shall relinquish its rights and be
released from its corresponding obligations under the Loan Documents with
respect to the rights and obligations assigned to the Assignee hereunder.

4.   PAYMENTS OBLIGATIONS. On and after the Effective Date, the Assignee
shall be entitled to receive from the Agent all payments of principal, interest
and fees with respect to the interest assigned hereby. The Assignee shall
advance funds directly to the Agent with respect to all Loans and reimbursement
payments made on or after the Effective Date with respect to the interest
assigned hereby. [In consideration for the sale and assignment of Loans
hereunder, (i) the Assignee shall pay the Assignor, on the Effective Date, an
amount equal to the principal amount of the portion of all CBR Loans assigned to
the Assignee hereunder and (ii) with respect to each LIBOR Loan made by the
Assignor and assigned to the Assignee hereunder which is outstanding on the
Effective Date, (a) on the last day of the LIBOR Interest Period therefor or
(b) on such earlier date agreed to by the Assignor and the Assignee or (c) on
the date on which any such LIBOR Loan either becomes due (by acceleration or
otherwise) or is prepaid (the date as described in the foregoing clauses (a),
(b) or (c) being hereinafter referred to as the "LIBOR Due Date"), the Assignee
shall pay the Assignor an amount equal to the principal amount of the portion of
such LIBOR Loan assigned to the Assignee which is outstanding on the LIBOR Due
Date. If the Assignor and the Assignee agree that the applicable LIBOR Due Date
for such LIBOR Loan shall be the Effective Date, they shall agree, solely for
purposes of dividing interest paid by the Borrower on such

<PAGE>

LIBOR Loan, to an alternate interest rate applicable to the portion of such Loan
assigned hereunder for the period from the Effective Date to the end of the
related LIBOR Interest Period (the "Agreed Interest Rate") and any interest
received by the Assignee in excess of the Agreed Interest Rate, with respect to
such LIBOR Loan for such period, shall be remitted to the Assignor. [In the
event interest for any period from the Effective Date to but not including the
LIBOR Due Date is not paid when due by the Borrower with respect to any LIBOR
Loan sold by the Assignor to the Assignee hereunder, the Assignee shall pay to
the Assignor interest for such period on the portion of such LIBOR Loan sold by
the Assignor to the Assignee hereunder at the applicable rate provided by the
Credit Agreement.] In the event a prepayment of any LIBOR Loan which is existing
on the Effective Date and assigned by the Assignor to the Assignee hereunder
occurs after the Effective Date but before the applicable LIBOR Due Date, the
Assignee shall remit to the Assignor any excess of the funding indemnification
amount paid by the Borrower under Section 3.4 of the Credit Agreement an account
of such prepayment with respect to the portion of such LIBOR Loan assigned to
the Assignee hereunder over the amount which would have been paid if such
prepayment amount were calculated based on the Agreed Interest Rate and only
covered the portion of the LIBOR Interest Period after the Effective Date. The
Assignee will promptly remit to the Assignor (i) the portion of any principal
payments assigned hereunder and received from the Agent with respect to any
LIBOR Loan prior to its LIBOR Due Date and (ii) any amounts of interest on Loans
and fees received from the Agent which relate to the portion of the Loans
assigned to the Assignee hereunder for periods prior to the Effective Date, in
the case of CBR Loans or fees, or the LIBOR Due Date, in the case of LIBOR
Loans, and not previously paid by the Assignee to the Assignor.]* In the event
that either party hereto receives any payment to which the other party hereto is
entitled under this Assignment Agreement, then the party receiving such amount
shall promptly remit it to the other party hereto.

*EACH ASSIGNOR MAY INSERT ITS STANDARD PAYMENT PROVISIONS IN LIEU OF THE PAYMENT
TERMS INCLUDED IN THIS EXHIBIT.

5.   FEES PAYABLE BY THE ASSIGNEE. The Assignee shall pay to the Assignor a
fee on each day on which a payment of interest or Facility Fees is made under
the Credit Agreement with respect to the amounts assigned to the Assignee
hereunder (other than a payment of interest or Facility Fees attributable to the
period prior to the Effective Date or, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the Payment
Date, which the Assignee is obligated to deliver to the Assignor pursuant to
SECTION 4 hereof). The amount of such fee shall be the difference between
(i) the interest or fee, as applicable, paid with respect to the amounts
assigned to the Assignee hereunder and (ii) the interest or fee, as applicable,
which would have been paid with respect to the amounts assigned to the Assignee
hereunder if each interest rate was calculated at the rate of % rather than the
actual percentage used to calculate the interest rate paid by the Borrower or if
the Facility Fee was calculated at the rate of % rather than the actual
percentage used to calculate the Facility Fee paid by the Borrower, as
applicable. In addition, the Assignee agrees to pay % of the fee required to be
paid to the Agent in connection with this Assignment Agreement.

6.   REPRESENTATIONS OF THE ASSIGNOR; LIMITATIONS ON THE ASSIGNOR'S
LIABILITY. The Assignor represents and warrants that it is the legal and

understood and agreed that the assignment and assumption hereunder are made
without recourse to the Assignor and that the Assignor makes no other
representation or warranty of any kind to the Assignee. Neither the Assignor nor

responsible for (i) the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or collectability of any Loan Document, including
without limitation, documents granting the Assignor and the other Lenders a
security interest in assets of the Borrower or any guarantor, (ii) any
representation, warranty or statement made in or in connection with any of the
Loan Documents, (iii) the financial condition or creditworthiness of the
Borrower or any guarantor, (iv) the performance of or compliance with any of the
terms or provisions of any of the Loan Documents, (v) inspecting any of the
Property, books or records of the Borrower, (vi) the validity, enforceability,
perfection, priority, condition, value or

<PAGE>

sufficiency of any collateral securing or purporting to secure the Loans or
(vii) any mistake, error of judgment, or action taken or omitted to be taken in
connection with the Loans or the Loan Documents.

7.   REPRESENTATIONS OF THE ASSIGNEE. The Assignee (i) confirms that it has
received a copy of the Credit Agreement, together with copies of the financial
statements requested by the Assignee and such other documents and information as
it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter
into this Assignment Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Agent, the Assignor or any other Lender and based on
such documents and information at it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under
the Loan Documents, (iii) appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action
as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as
are delegated to the Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as
are reasonably incidental thereto, (iv) agrees that it will perform in
accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the
Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender, (v) agrees that
its payment instructions and notice instructions are as set forth in the
attachment to Schedule 1, (vi) confirms that none of the funds, monies, assets
or other consideration being used to make the purchase and assumption hereunder
are "plan assets" as defined under ERISA and that its rights, benefits and
interests in and under the Loan Documents will not be "plan assets" under ERISA,
[and (vii) attaches the forms prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service of the
United States certifying that the Assignee is entitled to receive payments under
the Loan Documents without deduction or withholding of any United States federal
income taxes].

**TO BE INSERTED IF THE ASSIGNEE IS NOT INCORPORATED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE
UNITED STATES, OR A STATE THEREOF.

8.   INDEMNITY. The Assignee agrees to indemnify and hold the Assignor harmless
against any and all losses, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees) and liabilities incurred by the Assignor in
connection with or arising in any manner from the Assignee's non-performance of
the obligations assumed under this Assignment Agreement.

9.   SUBSEQUENT ASSIGNMENTS. After the Effective Date, the Assignee shall have
the right pursuant to SECTION 13.3.1 of the Credit Agreement to assign the

terms and conditions of the Loan Documents or any law, rule, regulation, order,
writ, judgment, injunction or decree and that any consent required under the
terms of the Loan Documents has been obtained and (ii) unless the prior written
consent of the Assignor is obtained, the Assignee is not thereby released from
its obligations to the Assignor hereunder, if any remain unsatisfied, including,
without limitation, its obligations under SECTIONS 4, 5 AND 8 hereof.

10.  REDUCTIONS OF AGGREGATE COMMITMENT. If any reduction in the Aggregate
Commitment occurs between the date of this Assignment Agreement and the
Effective Date, the percentage interest specified in Item 3 of Schedule 1 shall
remain the same, but the dollar amount purchased shall be recalculated based on
the reduced Aggregate Commitment.

11.  ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Assignment Agreement and the attached Notice of
Assignment embody the entire agreement and understanding between the parties
hereto and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties

     ------------------------------

From:  [NAME OF ASSIGNOR] (the "Assignor")

       [NAME OF ASSIGNEE] (the "Assignee")

       1. We refer to that Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") described
in Item 1 of Schedule 1 attached hereto ("Schedule 1"). Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to
them in the Credit Agreement.

This Notice of Assignment (this "Notice") is given and delivered to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to SECTION 13.3.2 of the Credit Agreement.

The Assignor and the Assignee have entered into an Assignment Agreement, dated
as of _________, ___ (the "Assignment"), pursuant to which, among other things,
the Assignor has sold, assigned, delegated and transferred to the Assignee, and
the Assignee has purchased, accepted and assumed from the Assignor the
percentage interest specified in Item 3 of Schedule 1 of all outstandings,
rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement. The Effective Date of the
Assignment shall be the later of the date specified in Item 5 of Schedule 1 or
two (2) Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative
Agent) after this Notice of Assignment and any fee required by SECTION 13.3.2 of
the Credit Agreement have been delivered to the Administrative Agent, provided
that the Effective Date shall not occur if any condition precedent agreed to by
the Assignor and the Assignee has not been satisfied.

The Assignor and the Assignee hereby give to the Administrative Agent notice of
the assignment and delegation referred to herein. The Assignor will confer with
the Administrative Agent before the date specified in Item 5 of Schedule 1 to
determine if the Assignment Agreement will become effective on such date
pursuant to SECTION 3 hereof, and will confer with the Administrative Agent to
determine the Effective Date pursuant to SECTION 3 hereof if it occurs
thereafter. The Assignor shall notify the Administrative Agent if the Assignment
Agreement does not become effective on any proposed Effective Date as a result
of the failure to satisfy the conditions precedent agreed to by the Assignor and
the Assignee. At the request of the Administrative Agent, the Assignor will give
the Administrative Agent written confirmation of the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent.

The Assignor or the Assignee shall pay to the Administrative Agent on or before
the Effective Date the processing fee of $3,000 required by SECTION 13.3.2 of
the Credit Agreement.

If Notes are outstanding on the Effective Date, the Assignor and the Assignee
request and direct that the Administrative Agent prepare and cause the Borrower
to execute and deliver new Notes or, as appropriate, replacements notes, to the
Assignor and the Assignee. The Assignor and, if applicable, the

<PAGE>

Assignee each agree to deliver to the Administrative Agent the original Note
received by it from the Borrower upon its receipt of a new Note in the
appropriate amount.

The Assignee advises the Administrative Agent that notice and payment
instructions are set forth in the attachment to Schedule 1.

The Assignee hereby represents and warrants that none of the funds, monies,
assets or other consideration being used to make the purchase pursuant to the
Assignment are "plan assets" as defined under ERISA and that its rights,
benefits, and interests in and under the Loan Documents will not be "plan
assets" under ERISA.

The Assignee authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent under the
Loan Documents in accordance with the terms thereof. The Assignee acknowledges
that the Administrative Agent has no duty to supply information with respect to
the Borrower or the Loan Documents to the Assignee until the Assignee becomes a
party to the Credit Agreement.*

* May be eliminated if Assignee is a party to the Credit Agreement prior to the
  Effective Date.

                           FORM OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY

       This Guaranty is made as of ________________, _____ by _________________,
a ________________ ("GUARANTOR"), to and for the benefit of The First National
Bank of Chicago, individually ("FIRST CHICAGO") and as administrative agent
("ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT") for itself and the lenders under the Credit Agreement
(as defined below) and their respective successors and assigns (collectively,
the "LENDERS").

                                    RECITALS

         A. Duke-Weeks Realty Limited Partnership, an Indiana limited
partnership ("BORROWER"), Duke-Weeks Realty Corporation, an Indiana corporation
(the "General Partner"), Banc One Capital Markets, Inc. ("BOCM") and Wachovia
Securities, Inc. ("Wachovia") (collectively, the "Lead Arrangers" and "Joint
Book Runners"), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo") (the
"Co-Arranger"), First Chicago, individually, and as Administrative Agent, and
the Lenders have entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of July __,
1999 (as amended, modified or restated from time to time, the "CREDIT
AGREEMENT") pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to provide Borrower with a
revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000,000
(the "Facility"). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

         B. Borrower has executed and delivered or will execute and deliver to
the Lenders promissory notes in the principal amount of each Lender's Commitment
as evidence of Borrower's indebtedness to each such Lender with respect to the
Facility (the promissory notes described above, together with any amendments or
allonges thereto, or restatements, replacements or renewals thereof, and/or new
promissory notes to new Lenders under the Credit Agreement, are collectively
referred to herein as the "NOTES").

         C. Guarantor is a Subsidiary of Borrower. Guarantor acknowledges that
the extension of credit by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to Borrower
pursuant to the Credit Agreement will benefit Guarantor by making funds
available to Guarantor through Borrower and by enhancing the financial strength
of the consolidated group of which Guarantor and Borrower are members.

         D. SECTION 7.28 of the Credit Agreement permits Borrower to cause any
of its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver a Subsidiary Guaranty to the
Administrative Agent. After such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary's
Projects will no longer be excluded from the definition of "Unencumbered Assets"
solely because such Projects are directly owned by a Subsidiary. The execution
and delivery of this Guaranty by Guarantor is made pursuant to such
SECTION 7.28.

<PAGE>

                                   AGREEMENTS

         NOW, THEREFORE, Guarantor, in consideration of the matters described in
the foregoing Recitals, which Recitals are incorporated herein and made a part
hereof, and for other good and valuable consideration, hereby agrees as follows:

         1. Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably guarantees to
each of the Lenders:

            (a) the full and prompt payment of the principal of and interest on
     the Notes when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or
     otherwise, and at all times thereafter, and the prompt payment of all sums
     which may now be or may hereafter become due and owing under the Notes, the
     Credit Agreement, and the other Loan Documents;

            (b) the payment of all Enforcement Costs (as hereinafter defined in
     PARAGRAPH 7 hereof); and

            (c) the full, complete, and punctual observance, performance, and
     satisfaction of all of the obligations, duties, covenants, and agreements
     of Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents.

All amounts due, debts, liabilities, and payment obligations described in
subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this PARAGRAPH 1 are referred to herein as the
"FACILITY INDEBTEDNESS." All obligations described in subparagraph (c) of this
PARAGRAPH 1 are referred to herein as the "OBLIGATIONS." Guarantor and Lenders
agree that Guarantor's obligations hereunder shall not exceed the greater of:
(i) the aggregate amount of all monies received, directly or indirectly, by
Guarantor from Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion
or other means), or (ii) the maximum amount of the Facility Indebtedness not
subject to avoidance under Title 11 of the United States Code, as same may be
amended from time to time, or any applicable state law (the "Bankruptcy Code").
To that end, to the extent such obligations would otherwise be subject to
avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code if Guarantor is not deemed to have received
valuable consideration, fair value or reasonably equivalent value for its
obligations hereunder, Guarantor's obligations hereunder shall be reduced to
that amount which, after giving effect thereto, would not render Guarantor
insolvent, or leave Guarantor with an unreasonably small capital to conduct its
business, or cause Guarantor to have incurred debts (or intended to have
incurred debts) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature, as such
terms are determined, and at the time such obligations are deemed to have been
incurred, under the Bankruptcy Code. In the event Guarantor shall make any
payment or payments under this Guaranty each other guarantor of the Facility
Indebtedness shall contribute to Guarantor an amount equal to such non-paying
guarantor's pro rata share (based on their respective maximum liabilities
hereunder and under such other guaranty) of such payment or payments made by
Guarantor, provided that such contribution right shall be subordinate and junior
in right of payment in full of all the Facility Indebtedness to Lenders.

         2. In the event of any default by Borrower in making payment of the
Facility Indebtedness, or in performance of the Obligations, as aforesaid, in
each case beyond the expiration of any applicable grace period, Guarantor
agrees, on demand by the Administrative Agent or the holder of a Note, to pay
all the Facility Indebtedness and to perform all the Obligations as are then or
thereafter

<PAGE>

become due and owing or are to be performed under the terms of the Notes, the
Credit Agreement, and the other Loan Documents.

         3. Guarantor does hereby waive (i) notice of acceptance of this
Guaranty by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and any and all notices and
demands of every kind which may be required to be given by any statute, rule or
law, (ii) any defense, right of set-off or other claim which Guarantor may have
against Borrower or which Guarantor or Borrower may have against the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders or the holder of a Note, (iii) presentment
for payment, demand for payment (other than as provided for in PARAGRAPH 2
above), notice of nonpayment (other than as provided for in PARAGRAPH 2 above)
or dishonor, protest and notice of protest, diligence in collection and any and
all formalities which otherwise might be legally required to charge Guarantor
with liability, (iv) any failure by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to
inform Guarantor of any facts the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may now
or hereafter know about Borrower, the Facility, or the transactions contemplated
by the Credit Agreement, it being understood and agreed that the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders have no duty so to inform and that Guarantor is fully
responsible for being and remaining informed by Borrower of all circumstances
bearing on the existence or creation, or the risk of nonpayment of the Facility
Indebtedness or the risk of nonperformance of the Obligations, and (v) any and
all right to cause a marshalling of assets of Borrower or any other action by
any court or governmental body with respect thereto, or to cause the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders to proceed against any other security given
to a Lender in connection with the Facility Indebtedness or the Obligations.
Credit may be granted or continued from time to time by the Lenders to Borrower
without notice to or authorization from Guarantor, regardless of the financial
or other condition of Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation.
The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no obligation to disclose or
discuss with Guarantor their assessment of the financial condition of Borrower.
Guarantor acknowledges that no representations of any kind whatsoever have been
made by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to Guarantor. No modification
or waiver of any of the provisions of this Guaranty shall be binding upon the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders except as expressly set forth in a writing
duly signed and delivered on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
Guarantor further agrees that any exculpatory language contained in the Credit
Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents shall in no event apply to
this Guaranty, and will not prevent the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
from proceeding against Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty.

         4. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor's liability as guarantor
shall in no way be impaired by any renewals or extensions which may be made from
time to time, with or without the knowledge or consent of Guarantor of the time
for payment of interest or principal under a Note or by any forbearance or delay
in collecting interest or principal under a Note, or by any waiver by the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, or any other
Loan Documents, or by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders' failure or
election not to pursue any other remedies they may have against Borrower, or by
any change or modification in a Note, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan
Documents, or by the acceptance by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of
any security or any increase, substitution or change therein, or by the release
by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of any security or any withdrawal
thereof or decrease therein, or by the application of payments received from any
source to the payment of any obligation other than the Facility Indebtedness,
even though a Lender might lawfully have

<PAGE>

elected to apply such payments to any part or all of the Facility Indebtedness,
it being the intent hereof that Guarantor shall remain liable as principal for
payment of the Facility Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations until
all indebtedness has been paid in full and the other terms, covenants and
conditions of the Credit Agreement, and other Loan Documents and this Guaranty
have been performed, notwithstanding any act or thing which might otherwise
operate as a legal or equitable discharge of a surety. Guarantor further
understands and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may at any
time enter into agreements with Borrower to amend and modify a Note, the Credit
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any thereof, and may waive or
release any provision or provisions of a Note, the Credit Agreement, or any
other Loan Document and, with reference to such instruments, may make and enter
into any such agreement or agreements as the Administrative Agent, the Lenders
and Borrower may deem proper and desirable, without in any manner impairing this
Guaranty or any of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders' rights hereunder or
any of Guarantor's obligations hereunder.

         5. This is an absolute, unconditional, complete, present and continuing
guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. Guarantor agrees that
its obligations hereunder shall be joint and several with any and all other
guarantees given in connection with the Facility from time to time. Guarantor
agrees that this Guaranty may be enforced by the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders without the necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any
security or collateral, if any, given in connection herewith or with a Note, the
Credit Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents or by or resorting to any
other guaranties, and Guarantor hereby waives the right to require the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders to join Borrower in any action brought
hereunder or to commence any action against or obtain any judgment against
Borrower or to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. Guarantor
further agrees that nothing contained herein or otherwise shall prevent the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders from pursuing concurrently or successively
all rights and remedies available to them at law and/or in equity or under a
Note, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents, and the exercise of any
of their rights or the completion of any of their remedies shall not constitute
a discharge of any of Guarantor's obligations hereunder, it being the purpose
and intent of Guarantor that the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall
be primary, absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all
circumstances whatsoever. Neither Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty
nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed
or released in any manner whatsoever by any impairment, modification, change,
release or limitation of the liability of Borrower under a Note, the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document or by reason of Borrower's bankruptcy or by
reason of any creditor or bankruptcy proceeding instituted by or against
Borrower. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective and be deemed to have
continued in existence or be reinstated (as the case may be) if at any time
payment of all or any part of any sum payable pursuant to a Note, the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document is rescinded or otherwise required to be
returned by the payee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of the
payor, all as though such payment to such Lender had not been made, regardless
of whether such Lender contested the order requiring the return of such payment.
The obligations of Guarantor pursuant to the preceding sentence shall survive
any termination, cancellation, or release of this Guaranty.

<PAGE>

         6. This Guaranty shall be assignable by a Lender to any assignee of all
or a portion of such Lender's rights under the Loan Documents.

         7. If: (i) this Guaranty, a Note, or any of the Loan Documents are
placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or is collected through any
legal proceeding; (ii) an attorney is retained to represent the Administrative
Agent or any Lender in any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, or other
proceedings affecting creditors' rights and involving a claim under this
Guaranty, a Note, the Credit Agreement, or any Loan Document; (iii) an attorney
is retained to enforce any of the other Loan Documents or to provide advice or
other representation with respect to the Loan Documents in connection with an
enforcement action or potential enforcement action; or (iv) an attorney is
retained to represent the Administrative Agent or any Lender in any other legal
proceedings whatsoever in connection with this Guaranty, a Note, the Credit
Agreement, any of the Loan Documents, or any property subject thereto (other
than any action or proceeding brought by any Lender or participant against the
Administrative Agent alleging a breach by the Administrative Agent of its duties
under the Loan Documents), then Guarantor shall pay to the Administrative Agent
or such Lender upon demand all reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses,
including, without limitation, court costs, filing fees and all other costs and
expenses incurred in connection therewith (all of which are referred to herein
as "ENFORCEMENT COSTS"), in addition to all other amounts due hereunder.

         8. The parties hereto intend that each provision in this Guaranty
comports with all applicable local, state and federal laws and judicial
decisions. However, if any provision or provisions, or if any portion of any
provision or provisions, in this Guaranty is found by a court of law to be in
violation of any applicable local, state or federal ordinance, statute, law,
administrative or judicial decision, or public policy, and if such court should
declare such portion, provision or provisions of this Guaranty to be illegal,
invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent of
all parties hereto that such portion, provision or provisions shall be given
force to the fullest possible extent that they are legal, valid and enforceable,
that the remainder of this Guaranty shall be construed as if such illegal,
invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable portion, provision or provisions were
not contained therein, and that the rights, obligations and interest of the
Administrative Agent and the Lender or the holder of a Note under the remainder
of this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect.

         9. Any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor now or hereafter existing
is hereby subordinated to the Facility Indebtedness. Guarantor will not seek,
accept, or retain for Guarantor's own account, any payment from Borrower on
account of such subordinated debt at any time when a Default or Event of Default
exists under the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents, and any such payments
to Guarantor made while any Default or Event of Default then exists under the
Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents on account of such subordinated debt
shall be collected and received by Guarantor in trust for the Lenders and shall
be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders on account of
the Facility Indebtedness without impairing or releasing the obligations of
Guarantor hereunder.

         10. Guarantor hereby subordinates to the Facility Indebtedness any and
all claims and rights, including, without limitation, subrogation rights,
contribution rights, reimbursement rights and set-off rights, which Guarantor
may have against Borrower arising from a payment made by

<PAGE>

Guarantor under this Guaranty and agrees that, until the entire Facility
Indebtedness is paid in full, not to assert or take advantage of any subrogation
rights of Guarantor or the Lenders or any right of Guarantor or the Lenders to
proceed against (i) Borrower for reimbursement, or (ii) any other guarantor or
any collateral security or guaranty or right of offset held by the Lenders for
the payment of the Facility Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations, nor
shall Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement
from Borrower or any other guarantor in respect of payments made by Guarantor
hereunder. It is expressly understood that the agreements of Guarantor set forth
above constitute additional and cumulative benefits given to the Lenders for
their security and as an inducement for their extension of credit to Borrower.

         11. Any amounts received by a Lender from any source on account of any
indebtedness may be applied by such Lender toward the payment of such
indebtedness, and in such order of application, as a Lender may from time to
time elect.

         12. Guarantor hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in the State of
Illinois for the enforcement of this Guaranty and waives any and all personal
rights to object to such jurisdiction for the purposes of litigation to enforce
this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby consents to the jurisdiction of either the
Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, or the United States District Court for
the Northern District of Illinois, in any action, suit, or proceeding which the
Administrative Agent or a Lender may at any time wish to file in connection with
this Guaranty or any related matter. Guarantor hereby agrees that an action,
suit, or proceeding to enforce this Guaranty may be brought in any state or
federal court in the State of Illinois and hereby waives any objection which
Guarantor may have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit, or
proceeding in any such court; provided, however, that the provisions of this
Paragraph shall not be deemed to preclude the Administrative Agent or a Lender
from filing any such action, suit, or proceeding in any other appropriate forum.

         13. All notices and other communications provided to any party hereto
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in writing or by telex

forth below or at such other address as may be designated by such party in a
