                              GUARANTY BY GUARANTOR

      SECTION 9.1 Guaranty by Guarantor.

      (a) For valuable consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged, and to
induce Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, Guarantor hereby absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Purchaser, and agrees fully to
pay, perform and discharge, as and when payment, performance and discharge are
due, all of the covenants, obligations and liabilities of Seller under this
Agreement and all amendments, modifications, renewals, extensions, supplements,
substitutions and replacements of this Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement
Obligations"). The obligations of Guarantor under the guaranty set forth in this
Section 9.1 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall continue
and remain in full force and effect until all of the Purchase Agreement
Obligations have been fully paid, performed and discharged. The guaranty
contained in this Section 9.1 is a guaranty of payment and not merely of
collection.

      (b) The obligations of Guarantor under this Section 9.1 shall not be
affected, modified or impaired by the occurrence of any of the following events,
whether or not with notice to, or the consent of, Guarantor: (i) the waiver,
surrender, compromise, settlement, release or termination of any or all of the
Purchase Agreement Obligations; (ii) the failure to give notice to Guarantor of
the occurrence of an event of default under the Purchase Agreement Obligations;
(iii) the extension of the time for the payment, performance or discharge of any
or all of the Purchase Agreement Obligations or the acceptance or making of
compromises or other arrangements with Seller, realizing on any security, or
otherwise dealing with Seller, other parties and any security as Purchaser may
deem expedient; (iv) the amendment or modification (whether material or
otherwise) of this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement Obligations in any
respect; (v) any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of Purchaser to
enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred on Purchaser
under this Agreement; (vi) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets, marshalling of assets and liabilities, receivership, insolvency,
bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization,
arrangement, composition with creditors or adjustment of debts, or other similar
proceedings affecting Seller or Guarantor or any of the assets of either of
them; (vii) the release or discharge by operation of law of Seller from the
payment, performance or discharge of any or all of the Purchase Agreement
Obligations; or (viii) the release or discharge by operation of law of Guarantor
from any or all of the obligations of Guarantor under the guaranty set forth in
this Section 9.1. Guarantor acknowledges that Purchaser would not enter into
this Agreement without the guaranty set forth in this Section 9.1 and that
Purchaser is relying on the guaranty set forth in this Section 9.1.

      (c) The obligations of Guarantor under the guaranty set forth in this
Section 9.1 are independent of the Purchase Agreement Obligations. Guarantor
agrees that Purchaser shall have the right to proceed against Guarantor directly
and independently of Seller. A separate action may be brought and prosecuted
against Guarantor whether or not an action is brought against Seller or Seller
is joined in any such action. Guarantor authorizes Purchaser and Seller, without
notice to, demand of, or consent from Guarantor and without releasing or
affecting Guarantor's liability under the guaranty set forth in this Section
9.1, from time to time to amend, modify, renew, extend, supplement or replace
this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement Obligations or otherwise change the
terms of this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement Obligations, to take and hold
security for the Purchase Agreement Obligations, and to enforce, waive,
surrender, impair, compromise or release any such security or any or all of the
Purchase Agreement Obligations or any person or entity liable for any or all of
the Purchase Agreement Obligations. Guarantor shall be and remain bound under
the guaranty set forth in this Section 9.1

                                       11
<PAGE>
notwithstanding any such act or omission by Seller or Purchaser. To the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, Guarantor waives all rights to require Purchaser to
proceed against Seller, to proceed against or exhaust any security held by
Purchaser, or to pursue any other remedy in Purchaser's power. Purchaser shall
have the right to exercise any right or remedy it may have against Seller or any
security held by Purchaser. Guarantor waives the right, if any, to the benefit
of, or to direct the application of, any security held by Purchaser. To the
extent permitted by Applicable Law, Guarantor waives (i) any defense arising out
of any alteration of the Purchase Agreement Obligations, (ii) any defense
arising out of the absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement or
subrogation or other right or remedy of Guarantor against Seller or any security
held by Purchaser, and (iii) any defense arising by reason of any disability or
other defense of Seller or by reason of the cessation or reduction from any
cause whatsoever of the liability of Seller other than full payment, performance
and discharge of the Purchase Agreement Obligations. The cessation or reduction
of the liability of Seller for any reason other than full payment, performance
and discharge of the Purchase Agreement Obligations shall not release or affect
in any way the liability of Guarantor under the guaranty set forth in this
Section 9.1.

      (d) If Seller becomes insolvent or is adjudicated bankrupt or files a
petition for reorganization, arrangement, composition or similar relief under
any present or future provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or if such a
petition is filed against Seller, or Seller makes a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors, and in any such proceeding any or all of the Purchase
Agreement Obligations are terminated or rejected or any or all of the Purchase
Agreement Obligations are modified or abrogated, Guarantor agrees that
Guarantor's liability hereunder shall not thereby be affected or modified and
such liability shall continue in full force and effect as if no such action or
proceeding had occurred. The guaranty set forth in this Section 9.1 shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if any payment of
the Purchase Agreement Obligations must be returned by Purchaser upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Seller, Guarantor, or otherwise, as
though such payment had not been made. Guarantor shall not seek to exercise any
rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity arising from payments made by
Guarantor pursuant to this Section 9.1 until the full and complete payment or
performance and discharge of the Purchase Agreement Obligations.

      (e) Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping Guarantor
informed of the financial condition of Seller and of all other circumstances
bearing upon the risk of failure to pay, perform or discharge any of the
Purchase Agreement Obligations which diligent inquiry would reveal, and
Guarantor agrees that Purchaser has no duty to advise Guarantor of information
known to Purchaser regarding such condition or any such circumstance. Guarantor
acknowledges that repeated and successive demands may be made and payments or
performance made hereunder in response to such demands as and when, from time to
time, Seller defaults in the payment, performance or discharge of the Purchase
Agreement Obligations. Notwithstanding any such payments and performance
hereunder, the guaranty set forth in this Section 9.1 shall remain in full force
and effect and shall apply to any and all subsequent defaults by Seller. It is
not necessary for Purchaser to inquire into the capacity, authority or powers of
Seller or the partners, directors, officers, employees or agents acting or
purporting to act on behalf of Seller, and all of the Purchase Agreement
Obligations made or created in reliance upon the purported exercise of such
powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

                                       12
<PAGE>

      (f) Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, notices of
nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of
acceptance of the guaranty set forth in this Section 9.1. Guarantor also waives
its homestead exemption. Guarantor agrees to pay all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, which are incurred by Purchaser in the
enforcement of the guaranty set forth in this Section 9.1. Guarantor hereby
expressly, irrevocably, fully and forever releases, waives and relinquishes any
and all right to trial by jury and any and all right to receive punitive,
exemplary and consequential damages from Purchaser (or any past, present or
future board member, trustee, director, officer, employee, agent,
representative, or advisor of Purchaser) in any claim, demand, action, suit,
proceeding or cause of action in which Purchaser and Guarantor are parties,
which in any way (directly or indirectly) arises out of, results from or relates
to any of the Purchase Agreement Obligations or the enforcement of the guaranty
set forth in this Section 9.1, in each case whether now existing or hereafter
arising and whether based on contract or tort or any other legal basis. The
guaranty set forth in this Section 9.1 shall bind and inure to the benefit of
Guarantor and Purchaser and their respective personal representatives, heirs,
successors and assigns.

                                    ARTICLE X

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

      SECTION 10.1 General Indemnification. The Seller agrees to assume
liability for, and to indemnify, protect, defend, save and keep harmless each
Indemnitee, on an After Tax Basis, from and against, any and all Claims that may
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee, whether or not
such Indemnitee shall also be indemnified as to any such Claim by any other
Person, arising out of any acts or omissions (whether by Guarantor, Seller or
any other Person) occurring on or before the Closing Date, in any way relating
to or arising out of:

      (a) any injury or damage to Persons or property arising from the actions
or inactions of Seller or Guarantor (or their employees, agents, Affiliates, or
invitees);

      (b) this Agreement, any other Operative Document or any of the
transactions contemplated thereby, and any amendment, modification or waiver in
respect thereof requested by Seller or Guarantor;

      (c)  the Property or any part thereof or interest therein;

      (d) the purchase, design, construction, preparation, installation,
inspection, delivery, nondelivery, acceptance, rejection, ownership, management,
possession, operation, rental, lease, sublease, repossession, maintenance,
repair, alteration, modification, addition or substitution, storage, transfer of
title, redelivery, use, financing, refinancing, disposition, operation,
condition, sale, return or other disposition of all or any part of any interest
in the Property or the imposition of any Lien (or incurring of any liability to
refund or pay over any amount as a result of any Lien) thereon, including: (1)
Claims or penalties arising from any violation of Applicable Law or in tort (on
the basis of strict liability or otherwise), (2) latent or other defects,
whether or not discoverable, (3) any Claim based upon a violation or alleged
violation of the terms of any restriction, easement, condition or covenant or
other matter affecting title to the Property, and (4) any Claim for patent,
trademark or copyright infringement;
                                       13
<PAGE>

      (e) the breach by the Seller or Guarantor of any covenant, representation
or warranty made by them or deemed made by them in this Agreement or any other
Operative Document or any certificate required to be delivered by this Agreement
or any other Operative Document; or

      (f) the existence of any Lien other than Lessor Liens on or with respect
to the Property, title thereto, or any interest therein including any Liens
which arise out of the possession, use, occupancy, construction, repair or
rebuilding of the Property or by reason of labor or materials furnished or
claimed to have been furnished to the Seller or the Guarantor, or any of its
contractors or agents or by reason of the financing of any personalty or
equipment purchased or leased by the Seller or the Guarantor or modifications
constructed by the Seller or the Guarantor;

      provided, however, that the Seller shall not be required to indemnify any
      Indemnitee under this Section 10.1 for any Claim to the extent resulting
      from the willful misconduct or negligence of such Indemnitee. It is
      expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity provided for herein
      shall survive the expiration or termination of and shall be separate and
      independent from any remedy under any other Operative Document.

      SECTION 10.2 Environmental Indemnity. Without limitation of the other
provisions of this Article X, the Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless and defend each Indemnitee from and against any and all claims
(including third party claims for personal injury or real or personal property
damage), losses, damages, liabilities, fines, penalties, charges, administrative
and judicial proceedings (including informal proceedings) and orders, judgments,
remedial action, requirements, enforcement actions of any kind, and all costs
and expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys'
and/or paralegals' fees and expenses), including all costs incurred in
connection with any investigation or monitoring of site conditions or any
clean-up, remedial, removal or restoration work by any Governmental Authority,
arising out of any acts or omissions (whether by Guarantor, Seller or any other
Person) occurring on or before the Closing Date caused by:

      (a)  Contamination on or under the Property resulting in an Environmental
Condition, or any Release of any Hazardous Material on, under, from or onto the
Property,

      (b) any Environmental Claim or any activity, including construction, that
was carried on or undertaken on or off the Property, and whether by the
Guarantor, the Seller or any predecessor in title or any employees, agents,
contractors or subcontractors of the Guarantor, the Seller or any predecessor in
title, in connection with the use, handling, treatment, removal, storage,
decontamination, clean-up, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Material that
at any time is or has been located or present on or under or that at any time
migrates, flows, percolates, diffuses or in any way moves from, onto or under
the Property,

      (c) Hazardous Material released from the Property to the environment or
Environmental Conditions on the Property (including clean-up costs, response
costs, remediation and removal costs, costs of corrective action, costs of
financial assurance, fines and penalties and natural resource damages), causing
death or injury to any Person, or to wildlife, aquatic species,

                                       14
<PAGE>
vegetation, flora and fauna, and any resulting mitigative action required by or
under Environmental Laws,

      (d) any claim concerning lack of compliance with Environmental Laws, or
any act or omission on the Property causing an Environmental Condition that
requires remediation, investigation, corrective action, clean-up obligation or
other response or causes any Governmental Authority to record a Lien on the land
records, or

      (e) any Contamination requiring remediation, investigation, corrective
action, clean-up obligation or other response under any Environmental Law on or
under the Land, or affecting any natural resources, arising in connection with
the generation, use, handling, storage, transport or disposal of any Hazardous
Materials on the Property, and irrespective of whether any of such activities
were or will be undertaken in accordance with Applicable Laws;

      provided, however, that the Seller shall not be required to indemnify any
      Indemnitee under this Section 10.2 for any Claim to the extent resulting
      from the willful misconduct or negligence of such Indemnitee. It is
      expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity provided for herein
      shall survive the expiration or termination of and shall be separate and
      independent from any remedy under any other Operative Document.

      SECTION 10.3 Proceedings in Respect of Claims. With respect to any amount
that the Seller is requested by an Indemnitee to pay by reason of Section 10.1
or 10.2, such Indemnitee shall, if so requested by the Seller and prior to any
payment, submit such additional information to the Seller as the Seller may
reasonably request and which is in the possession of or reasonably available to
Indemnitee to substantiate properly or which is otherwise related to the
requested payment or related Claim. The Seller and each Indemnitee agree to give
each other prompt written notice of any Claim hereby indemnified against but the
giving of any such notice by an Indemnitee shall not be a condition to the
Seller's obligations under Section 10.1 or 10.2, except to the extent failure to
give such notice materially prejudices Seller's rights hereunder.

      In case any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any
Indemnitee for which indemnification is or will at any time be sought hereunder
or under this Agreement or any other Operative Document, the Seller shall be
entitled, at the Seller's expense and subject to the limitations set forth in
this Section 10.3, to participate in, and, to the extent that the Seller desires
to, assume and control the defense thereof; provided, however, that Seller shall
not take any action that would unduly prejudice the interests of any Indemnitee.
The Seller, at the request of each Indemnitee, shall keep such Indemnitee
apprised of the status of such action, suit or proceeding and shall provide such
Indemnitee with all information with respect to such action, suit or proceeding
as such Indemnitee shall reasonably request, and provided, further, that the
Seller shall not be entitled to assume and control the defense of any such
action, suit or proceeding if and to the extent that (A) in the reasonable
opinion of such Indemnitee (x) such action, suit or proceeding involves any risk
of imposition of criminal liability or will involve a material or imminent risk
of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, the Property or any part thereof unless, in
the case of civil liability or such potential Lien, the Seller shall have posted
a bond or other security satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitees in respect to
such risk or (y) the control of such action, suit or proceeding would involve an
actual or potential conflict of interest, (B) such

                                       15
<PAGE>
proceeding involves Claims not fully indemnified by the Seller which the Seller
and the Indemnitee have been unable to sever from the indemnified claim(s), or
(C) an Event of Default under the Lease has occurred and is continuing. The
Indemnitee will join in the Seller's efforts to sever such action. The
Indemnitee may participate in a reasonable manner at the Seller's expense and
with its own counsel in any proceeding conducted by the Seller in accordance
with the foregoing.

      Each Indemnitee shall at the expense of the Seller supply the Seller with
such information and documents reasonably requested by the Seller as are
necessary or advisable for the Seller to participate in, or assume and control
the defense of, any action, suit or proceeding to the extent permitted by
Section 10.1 or 10.2. Unless an Event of Default under the Lease shall have
occurred and be continuing, no Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement or
other compromise with respect to any Claim which is entitled to be indemnified
under Section 10.1 or 10.2 without the prior written consent of the Seller.

      Upon payment in full of any Claim by the Seller pursuant to Section 10.1
or 10.2 to or on behalf of an Indemnitee and after an Indemnitee has been fully
indemnified for a Claim pursuant to Section 10.1 or 10.2, the Seller, without
any further action, shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such
Indemnitee may have relating thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance
policies maintained by such Indemnitee at its own expense), and such Indemnitee
shall execute such instruments of assignment and conveyance, evidence of claims
and payment and such other documents, instruments and agreements as may be
necessary to preserve any such claims and otherwise cooperate with the Seller
and give such further assurances as are necessary or advisable to enable the
Seller vigorously to pursue such claims.

      Any amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 10.1 or 10.2 shall
be paid to such Indemnitee promptly upon receipt of a written demand therefor
from such Indemnitee, accompanied by a written statement describing in
reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount
so payable.

      SECTION 10.4 Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 10:

      (a) The sole and exclusive remedy of Purchaser and any other Indemnitee
against Seller and Guarantor solely in connection with any breach of any
representation or warranty contained in this Agreement shall be to seek
indemnification as provided in Section 10.1(e); and

      (b) in no event shall Seller or Guarantor have any liability for special,
punitive, speculative, indirect or consequential damages or for lost profit.

                                   ARTICLE XI

authorized any broker, finder or financial adviser retained or employed by any
other Person so to act. Any party who is in breach of this representation shall
indemnify and hold the other parties harmless from and against any liability
arising out of such breach of this representation.

      SECTION 11.3 Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all
notices, consents, directions, approvals, instructions, requests and other
communications required or permitted by the terms hereof to be given to any
Person shall be given in writing and delivered by hand delivery, by certified
mail (postage pre-paid, return receipt requested) or by a nationally recognized
courier service and any such notice shall become effective upon delivery (in the
case of hand delivery), three (3) Business Days after mailing (with respect to a
notice by certified mail) and upon delivery to the recipient (with respect to a
notice delivered by a courier service) and shall be directed to the address of
such Person identified below the signature of each party to this Agreement. From
time to time any party may designate a new address for purposes of notice
hereunder by written notice to each of the other parties hereto in accordance
with this Section.

      SECTION 11.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties

Person except the parties hereto.

      SECTION 11.8 GOVERNING LAW. THIS PURCHASE AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY

VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE EXCLUDING ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAW OR CHOICE-OF-LAW RULES
WHICH MIGHT LEAD TO THE APPLICATION OF THE INTERNAL LAWS OF ANY OTHER
JURISDICTION.

      SECTION 11.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any

                                       17
<PAGE>
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or

Agreement or any other Operative Document. The Seller, at its own expense and
without need of any prior request from any other party, shall take such action
as may be necessary (including any action specified in the preceding sentence),

provided for hereunder or under any other Operative Document.

and

      WHEREAS, to secure Lessee's obligations under this Lease and the other

Property.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, the mutual
agreements herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

SECTION 1.  DEFINITIONS; RULES OF INTERPRETATION.

      Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set
forth in Appendix A hereto. The general provisions of Appendix A regarding
interpretation shall also apply to this Lease.

SECTION 2.  LEASE OF PROPERTY; NATURE OF TRANSACTION.

      2.1   Lease of Property. Lessor hereby agrees to lease to Lessee, and
Lessee hereby agrees to lease from Lessor, the Property, in each case subject to
and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Lease, for the Lease
Term.

      2.2   Acceptance. Lessee hereby agrees that the execution and delivery by
the Lessee of this Lease shall, without further act, constitute the irrevocable
acceptance by the Lessee of the Property for all purposes of this Lease and the
other Operative Documents on the terms set forth
<PAGE>
therein and herein, and that the Property shall be deemed to be included in the
leasehold estate of this Lease and shall be subject to the terms and conditions
of this Lease.

      2.3   Title. The Property is leased to the Lessee without any
representation or warranty, express or implied, by the Lessor and subject to the
rights of parties in possession, the existing state of title (including
Permitted Property Liens) and all applicable Requirements of Law. The Lessee
shall in no event have any recourse against the Lessor for any defect in or
exception to title to the Property other than to the extent resulting from
Lessor Liens.

SECTION 3.  LEASE TERM.

      The Lease Term shall commence on (and include) the Closing Date and shall
end on (and include) the Expiration Date, subject to earlier termination in
accordance with Sections 11.1, 12.1, 13.1 or 16.1 of this Lease.

SECTION 4.  RENTS.

      4.1   Rent Payments.

            (a)   Basic Rent. During the Interim Term, no Basic Rent shall be
payable by Lessee. Beginning on the first Basic Rent Payment Date to occur
immediately after the Basic Rent Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on
each Basic Rent Payment Date until the Lease Balance equals zero, Lessee shall
pay to Lessor Basic Rent in the manner provided in Section 4.2 for the lease of
the Property during the Lease Term. Schedule 4.1 attached hereto depicts the
Basic Rent Amortization Payment.

            (b)   Supplemental Rent. Lessee shall pay to Lessor and the other
Persons entitled thereto pursuant to Section 4.2 any and all Supplemental Rent
on the date on which the same shall become due and payable, including interest
at the Overdue Rate on any payment of Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent or the
Termination Value not paid when due for the period from the due date until the
same shall be paid. The expiration or other termination of the Lease Term and/or
Lessee's obligation to pay Basic Rent hereunder shall not limit or modify the
obligations of Lessee with respect to Supplemental Rent. Unless expressly
provided otherwise in this Lease, in the event of any failure on the part of
Lessee to pay and discharge any Supplemental Rent as and when the same shall be
due and payable, Lessee shall also promptly pay and discharge any fine, penalty,
interest or cost which may be assessed or added for non-payment or late payment
of such Supplemental Rent, all of which shall also constitute Supplemental Rent.

            (c)   Operating Expenses. Lessee shall pay to Lessor pursuant to
Section 4.2, as Supplemental Rent, within thirty (30) days of written demand
therefore, all amounts reasonably established by Lessor as the operating
expenses of Lessor.

      4.2   Place and Manner of Payment.

            (a)   All payments of Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent and the

<PAGE>
time on the date when such payments are due to such account at such bank, or in
such other manner as Lessor shall from time to time direct in a written notice
to Lessee.

            (b)   Neither Lessee's inability or failure to take possession of
all, or any portion, of the Property when delivered by Lessor, nor Lessor's
inability or failure to deliver all or any portion of the Property to Lessee,
whether or not attributable to any act or omission of Lessee or any act or
omission of Lessor, or for any other reason whatsoever, shall delay or otherwise
affect Lessee's obligation to pay Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent or the
Termination Value in accordance with the terms of this Lease.

            (c)   All payments of Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent and the
Termination Value shall be paid absolutely net to each Person entitled thereto,
so that this Lease shall yield to such Person the full amount thereof, without
setoff, deduction or reduction.

            (a)   THIS LEASE IS A NET LEASE AND LESSEE'S OBLIGATION TO PAY ALL
BASIC RENT, SUPPLEMENTAL RENT OR THE TERMINATION VALUE SHALL BE ABSOLUTE AND
UNCONDITIONAL UNDER ANY AND ALL CIRCUMSTANCES AND, WITHOUT LIMITING THE
GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, LESSEE SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO ANY ABATEMENT OR
REDUCTION OF BASIC RENT, SUPPLEMENTAL RENT OR THE TERMINATION VALUE OR ANY
SETOFF AGAINST BASIC RENT, SUPPLEMENTAL RENT OR THE TERMINATION VALUE, INDEMNITY

(i) by reason of the condition, merchantability, design, quality, fitness for
use, any defect in or damage to, loss of possession or use, obsolescence or
destruction of any or all of the Property, however caused, or any inability to
use the Property or any part thereof by reason of any such defect; (ii) by the
taking or requisitioning of any or all of the Property by condemnation or
otherwise or by any removal, abandonment, salvage loss, contamination or

or by Lessee or any provision

                                       3
<PAGE>
hereof or any of the other Operative Documents or any provision of any thereof;
(xii) by the impossibility or illegality of performance by Lessee, Lessor or
both; (xiii) by any failure on the part of Lessor to perform or comply with any
of the terms of this Lease or any other Operative Document; (xiv) by any action
of any Governmental Authority; (xv) by any claim for infringement or other

property rights; or (xvi) by any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to
the foregoing, any present or future law to the contrary notwithstanding.

            (c)   It is the intention of the parties hereto that all payments of
Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent and the Termination Value payable by Lessee
hereunder shall be payable in all events in the manner and at the times herein
provided unless Lessee's obligations in respect thereof shall have been
terminated or modified pursuant to the express provisions of this Lease. Lessee
agrees that in no event shall a failure by Weirton Steel Corporation to supply
Influent (as defined in the Supply Agreement) or utilities to the Facility under
the Supply Agreement relieve Lessee of the obligation to pay Basic Rent,
Supplemental Rent or the Termination Value hereunder. To the extent permitted by
Applicable Law, Lessee hereby waives any and all rights that it may now have or
which may at any time be conferred upon it, by statute or otherwise, to
terminate, cancel, quit or surrender this Lease, in whole or in part, except
strictly in accordance with the express terms hereof. Each payment of Basic
Rent, Supplemental Rent, Termination Value, indemnity or other payment made by
Lessee hereunder shall be final, and Lessee shall not seek to recover all or any
part of such payment from Lessor except as expressly provided in this Lease.
Without affecting Lessee's obligation to pay Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent or
the Termination Value and any other amounts hereunder, Lessee may seek damages
for a breach by Lessor or any Investor of its respective obligations under this
Lease or any of the other Operative Documents. Lessor shall be under no
obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Lessee or against or in payment of
any or all Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent or the Termination Value. The parties
hereto intend that the obligations of Lessee under this Lease shall be covenants
and agreements that are separate and independent from any obligations of Lessor
hereunder or under any other Operative Document and the obligations of Lessee
under this Lease shall continue unaffected unless such obligations have been
modified or terminated in accordance with an express provision of this Lease.

SECTION 5.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

Lessor waiver forms in favor of any purchase money seller, lessor or lender
which has financed or may finance in the future such items; provided, however,
that title to any fixtures, equipment, machinery, leasehold improvements and
other personal property that are required for the proper operation of the
Property or which cannot be readily removed or detached from the Property shall
vest in Lessor and the same shall be deemed part of the Property for all
purposes of this Lease and the Operative Documents. The Lessor shall, at the
Lessee's sole cost and expense, execute and deliver any instruments necessary or
appropriate to confirm any waiver, grant, release, dedication, transfer,
annexation or amendment to any Person as permitted under this Section 6.2.

      6.3   Permitted Contests in Respect of Applicable Law. If, to the extent
and for so long as (a) a test, challenge, appeal or proceeding for review of any
Applicable Law relating to the Property or any portion thereof shall be
prosecuted diligently and in good faith in appropriate proceedings by the Lessee
or (b) compliance with such Applicable Law shall have been excused or exempted
by a valid nonconforming use, variance permit, waiver, extension or forbearance,
the Lessee shall not be required to comply with such Applicable Law but only if
and so long as any such test, challenge, appeal, proceeding, waiver, extension,
forbearance or noncompliance shall not, in the reasonable opinion of the Lessor
involve (A) any risk of criminal liability being imposed on any Participant, or
(B) any material risk of (1) foreclosure, forfeiture or loss of the Property, or
any part thereof, or (2) the nonpayment of Rent or (C) any material risk of (1)
the sale of, or the creation of any material Lien (other than a Permitted
Property Lien) on, any part of the Property, (2) civil liability being imposed
on any Participant for which Lessee has not specifically agreed to indemnify and
defend such Participant, or (3) enjoinment of, or interference with, the use,
possession or disposition of the Property in any material respect.

      6.4   Permitted Contests in Respect of Impositions and Other Liens.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Purchase
Agreement or any other Operative Document, Lessee shall, subject to the
provisions of Section 14.4, have the right to contest, appeal or otherwise
challenge (i) any assessment of the Property (or any portion thereof) for any
Imposition imposed by any Governmental Authority, (ii) the millage rates imposed
for Taxes by any Governmental Authority, (iii) the allocation of the items
constituting real property and personal property included within the Property
made by any Governmental Authority in

                                       6
<PAGE>
connection with any Tax, (iv) the uniformity or legality of any Imposition, and
(v) any Lien which Lessee is obligated to discharge under Section 6.1; provided,
however, (A) such contest is diligently pursued and prosecuted in good faith to
completion by the Lessee, (B) the Property is not subject to imminent
foreclosure or sale by any Governmental Authority or Person, (C) Lessee shall
set aside on its books adequate reserves for such Tax or Lien as determined in
conformity with GAAP, consistently applied, and (D) no Participant will be
subject to criminal liability, or any civil liability for which Lessee has not
specifically agreed to indemnify and defend such Participant, in connection with
such contest, appeal or challenge.

      6.5   Joinder of Lessor. The Lessor will not be required to join in any
proceeding pursuant to this Section 6 unless a provision of Applicable Law
requires that such proceeding be brought by or in the name of Lessor, or, in the
good faith opinion of the Lessee, it is helpful to the Lessee, that such
proceedings be brought by or in the name of the Lessor; and in that event the
Lessor will join in the proceedings or permit them or any part thereof to be
brought in its name if and so long as the Lessee pays all related expenses and
indemnifies the Lessor and the other Participants to the commercially reasonable
satisfaction of the respective indemnities.

SECTION 7.  USE AND MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY.

      7.1   Possession and Use of Facility; Compliance with Laws. Without
limiting Lessee's obligations under Section 7.2 and subject to the provisions of
Section 6.3, Lessee shall use and operate the Property in compliance with all
Applicable Laws except to the extent the failure to so comply could not
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect with respect to Lessee
or the Property. Lessee shall procure and maintain in effect all Governmental
Approvals as shall now or hereafter be necessary under Applicable Law in
connection with the operation and maintenance of the Property or the making and
performance by Lessee of any of the Operative Documents, except to the extent
the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect with respect to Lessee or the Property, and will use its
reasonable efforts to intervene in and contest any proceeding which seeks, or
may be reasonably expected, to rescind, terminate, modify or suspend any such
Governmental Approval. The Property will at all times be and remain in the
possession and control of Lessee, subject to Section 7.3 and Section 9. Lessee
shall not use and operate the Property for any purpose or in any manner that
would adversely affect the utility or remaining useful life of the Property
(other than to the extent any of the foregoing constitutes ordinary wear and
tear). Lessee will not change the use of the Property from that in effect on the
Closing Date.

      7.2   Maintenance. At all times during the Lease Term, Lessee shall, at
its own cost and expense, keep, repair, maintain and preserve (or cause to be
kept, repaired, maintained and preserved) the Property in all material respects
(i) in good condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), repair and working
order, (ii) in accordance with Prudent Utility Practice and all insurance
policies required to be maintained by Lessee under this Lease, (iii) so as not
to cause any manufacturer's warranties then in effect on the Property to become
void, and (iv) in compliance with all Applicable Law and Governmental Approvals.
In addition to, but without limiting, the immediately preceding sentence, at all
times during the Lease Term, Lessee shall, to the extent commercially
reasonable, at its own cost and expense, keep, repair, maintain and preserve the
Property without discrimination as compared to other assets of a similar type
owned or operated by Lessee or any of its Affiliates. Lessee hereby waives any
right that it may now

                                       7
<PAGE>
have or hereafter acquire under any Applicable Law or otherwise (x) to require
Lessor to repair, renew, replace or improve all or any part of the Property, or
(y) to make any repairs to the Property at the expense of Lessor.

      7.3   Removal of Components.

            (a)   In the ordinary course of maintaining, servicing, repairing or
testing the Property, or any component thereof, Lessee shall have the right, at
its own cost and expense, to remove or cause to be removed any component of the
Property; provided, however, that (i) Lessee shall cause any such component to
be replaced by a replacement component, (ii) Lessee shall cause such replacement
component to be free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and in
as good an operating condition as that of the component replaced and with a
utility and remaining useful life at least equal to that of the component
replaced (in each case, assuming that the replaced component was maintained in
accordance with the terms of this Lease), and (iii) the use of such replacement
component as part of the Property shall not, other than in a de minimis respect,
diminish the utility or remaining useful life of the Facility or Energy Assets
(in each case taken as a whole); provided, further, that Lessee shall not be
required to replace a particular component in accordance with this Section 7.3
if such component is obsolete and its removal without replacement could not
reasonably be expected to diminish, other than in a de minimis respect, the
utility or remaining useful life of the Facility or the Energy Assets, in each
case taken as a whole ("Obsolete Component") or otherwise have a material
adverse effect on the operations of the Facility or the Energy Assets (as
appropriate). Each component (other than an Obsolete Component) at any time
removed from the Property shall remain subject to this Lease, wherever located,
until such time as such component shall be replaced by a replacement component
which has been incorporated in the Property and which meets the requirements for
replacement components specified above, and Lessee shall take all actions,
including the filing of financing statements, as reasonably requested by Lessor
as a precaution to cause such removed component to remain subject to this Lease.

            (b)   Immediately upon (x) removal of an Obsolete Component or (y)
removal of any other component (other than an Obsolete Component) from the
Property pursuant to Section 7.3(a) and the replacement component becoming
incorporated in the Property in accordance with Section 7.3(a), without further
act (and with no adjustment to the Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent or the
Termination Value, as the case may be), (i) the removed component shall no
longer be subject to this Lease, (ii) title to the removed component shall
thereupon vest in Lessee or such other Person as shall be designated by Lessee,
free and clear of all rights of Lessor, and (iii) in the case of any replacement
component, title to the replacement component shall thereupon vest with Lessor
and such replacement component shall (x) become subject to this Lease and (y) be
deemed a part of the Property for all purposes of the Operative Documents.

      7.4   Regulatory Credits. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, Lessee and Guarantor shall have the right to utilize, bank,
transfer and/or sell any and all "emission reduction credits" and similar rights
attributable to the Property arising under Environmental Laws ("Regulatory
Credits"); provided, however, that Lessee shall not sell any Regulatory Credits
that are to be generated in the future without the prior written consent of
Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all Regulatory
Credits shall be the property of and

                                       8
<PAGE>
inure to the benefit of Lessor and Lessee shall not take any action with respect
to such Regulatory Credits without the prior written consent of Lessor.

SECTION 8.  IMPROVEMENTS.

      Lessee, at its own expense, (a) may make, or cause to be made, without the
consent of any of Lessor or the Investors, modifications, alterations, additions
or improvements to the Property (collectively, "Improvements") (i) that are in
the reasonable judgment of Lessee advisable or desirable in accordance with
Prudent Utility Practice, (ii) that do not diminish, other than in a de minimis
respect, the utility or remaining useful life of the Facility or the Energy
Assets (in each case when taken as a whole), (iii) that are made in accordance
with all Applicable Laws, (iv) that do not have a material adverse effect on
title to, or Lessor's interest in, the Property, (v) for the payment of the
costs of which when due Lessee shall have made adequate arrangements such that
the Property shall at all times remain free and clear of Liens for labor and
materials supplied in connection with such Improvements, and (vi) that are
undertaken only after Lessee has obtained all Governmental Approvals required
for the making of such Improvements, and (b) shall make, or cause to be made,
such Improvements ("Required Improvements") as may be required in order to
comply with (i) any insurance policies required to be maintained by Lessee under
this Lease or (ii) any Applicable Law, Governmental Approval or Governmental
Rule. Title to all Improvements that are Severable Improvements shall
automatically vest in Lessee and remain the property of Lessee and title to any
Improvements that are not Severable Improvements shall remain with Lessor. If,
and at the time, the Property is returned to Lessor in accordance with the terms
of this Lease, Lessee shall remove such Severable Improvements at Lessee's sole
cost and expense.

SECTION 9.  RIGHT TO SUBLEASE; ASSIGNMENT OF LEASE.

      9.1   Sublease. Lessee shall not sublease all or any portion of the
Property or any of its rights under this Lease without the prior written consent
of Lessor, and any such sublease made without the prior written consent of
Lessor shall be null and void. Each such subletting shall be expressly subject
to all of the terms, covenants, conditions and obligations on Lessee's part to
be observed and performed under this Lease and subject to the further condition
and restriction that (i) the sublease shall not be further assigned, encumbered
or otherwise transferred or the subleased premises further sublet by the
subtenant in whole or in part without the prior written consent of Lessor, (ii)
the subletting shall end no later than one (1) day before the Expiration Date,
and (iii) the subtenant shall forfeit possession in the event Lessee pays the
Termination Value pursuant to Section 12.1. No sublease or other relinquishment
of possession of the Property shall in any way discharge or diminish any of the
Lessee's obligations to the Lessor hereunder and the Lessee shall remain
directly and primarily liable under this Lease as to the Property, or portion
thereof, so sublet. Any sublease of the Property shall expressly be made subject
to and subordinated to this Lease and to the rights of the Lessor hereunder.

      9.2   Assignment of Lease by Lessee. Lessee shall not assign any of its
obligations under this Lease or its rights, benefits, advantages, titles or
interests in and to the Property and this Lease without the prior written
consent of Lessor, and any such assignment made without the prior written
consent of Lessor shall be null and void. No assignment of Lessee's obligations
under this Lease or Lessee's rights, benefits, advantages, titles or interests
in and to the Property

                                       9
<PAGE>
and this Lease shall in any way relieve Lessee of its obligations hereunder or
under the other Operative Documents.

      9.3   Assignment of Lease by Lessor. Upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Lessee and Guarantor, Lessor may assign its obligations, rights,
benefits, advantages, titles or interests in and to this Lease to any Person;
provided, however, that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Lessee shall not assign this Lease or any of its obligations,
rights, benefits, advantages, titles or interests in and to this Lease to any
Person or Affiliate of a Person that is engaged in the steelmaking business or
that competes directly or indirectly with Guarantor.

SECTION 10. INSPECTION AND RIGHT TO ENTER.

      10.1  Inspection. Upon at least five (5) Business Days' prior written
notice by Lessor, Lessee shall make the Property available to Lessor and its
agents for inspection at reasonable times and under conditions reasonably
acceptable to Lessee.

      10.2  Right to Enter. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of
Default and the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 16.1, Lessor shall have
the right to enter upon the site on which the Property subject to re-possession
is located for the purpose of repossessing the Property. Except for grossly
negligent or willful acts or omissions, Lessor shall not be liable for any
damage to Lessee's property caused by the repossession of the Property pursuant
to the preceding sentence.

SECTION 11. EVENTS OF LOSS; INSURANCE.

      11.1  Risk of Loss. During the Lease Term, the risk of loss of or decrease
in the enjoyment and beneficial use of all or any portion of the Property as a
result of the damage or destruction thereof by fire, the elements, casualties,
thefts, riots, wars or otherwise is assumed by Lessee, and neither Lessor nor
the Investors shall be answerable or accountable to Lessee therefor.

            (a)   If an Event of Total Loss occurs with respect to the Facility,
then Lessee shall exercise the Termination Option and terminate this Lease
pursuant to Section 12.1(a) and purchase the Property from Lessor by paying to
Lessor on a Basic Rent Payment Date occurring not later than the earlier of the
date that is ninety (90) days following the occurrence of such Event of Total
Loss and the Expiration Date, the sums provided for in Section 12.1(a)(ii). The
termination of this Lease and the purchase of the Property shall otherwise be in
accordance with Section 12.1(b).

            (b)   Lessee shall promptly notify Lessor in writing of any Event of
Loss or Event of Total Loss.

            (c)   All proceeds (including insurance proceeds) payable by a
third-party to Lessee or Lessor in respect of an Event of Loss shall be paid
directly to Lessor. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, and provided that the Lessor shall have received a written
application of the Lessee setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of any
necessary repair, rebuilding and restoration, the expected total expenditures
required to complete such work

                                       10
<PAGE>
and evidence that sufficient funds (inclusive of the proceeds paid to Lessor)
are or will be available to complete such work on a timely basis (such
application to be reasonably acceptable to the Lessor), the Lessor shall
promptly pay over such proceeds to the Lessee and the Lessee shall be obligated
to repair the Property or replace a component of the Property, as applicable, so
that the Property shall have a remaining useful life and utility at least equal
to that of the Property prior to such Event of Loss, assuming the Property was
in the condition and repair required to be maintained by this Lease.

            (d)   All proceeds (including insurance proceeds) payable by a
third-party to Lessee or Lessor in respect of an Event of Total Loss shall be
paid directly to Lessor to be applied toward payment of the Lease Balance.

      11.2  Insurance.

            (a)   Insurance. At all times during the Lease Term, Lessee shall
maintain insurance with respect to the Property as set forth in Schedule 11.2
hereto; provided that all such insurance policies shall name Lessor as loss
payee or additional insured, as applicable, as Lessor's interest in the Property
may appear (the "Additional Insured") with the understanding that any
obligations imposed upon the insured, including, without limitation, the
obligation to pay premiums under any policy required by this Section 11.2 shall
be the obligation of the Lessee and not that of the Lessor. In the event Lessee
fails to take out or maintain the full insurance coverage required by this
Section 11.2, Lessor may (but shall not be obligated to), upon thirty (30) days'
prior written notice (unless the aforementioned insurance would lapse within
such period, in which event notice should be given as soon as reasonably
possible) to Lessee of any such failure, take out the required policies of
insurance and pay the premiums on such required policies of insurance. All
amounts so advanced therefor by Lessor shall become an additional obligation of
Lessee hereunder, and Lessee shall forthwith pay such amounts to Lessor,
together with interest thereon from the date so advanced at the Overdue Rate.

            (b)   Provisions With Respect to Insurance. All insurance policies
required to be maintained pursuant to the terms hereof shall also provide for at
least thirty (30) days prior written notice (ten (10) days if as a result of
non-payment) by the insurance carrier to the Additional Insured in the event of
cancellation, non-renewal, termination, expiration, reduction in coverage or
material change of such insurance policy. Lessee shall place the insurance
required by the terms of this Section 11.2 with insurance companies that agree
to waive all claims for premiums from, and all subrogation rights against, the
Additional Insured. All the insurance maintained pursuant to this Section 11.2
shall be primary without right of contribution of any other insurance carried by
or on behalf of the Additional Insured with respect to its interests in the
Property.

            (c)   Reports. On or prior to the Closing Date and not less than
fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration date of any insurance policy required
to be maintained pursuant to this Section 11.2, Lessee shall furnish to the
Additional Insured (i) a certificate of insurance with respect to the renewal of
each policy, bearing a notation evidencing payment of premium therefor or
accompanied by other proof of payment reasonably satisfactory to Lessor or (ii)
in lieu thereof, an officer's certificate reasonably satisfactory to Lessor
describing the status of

                                       11
<PAGE>
renewal of such insurance, and as soon as they are available, the certificates
described in clause (i) above.

            (d)   Additional Insurance. At any time the Additional Insured may,
at its own expense and for its own account, carry insurance with respect to its
interest in the Property, provided that such insurance does not interfere with
Lessee's ability to obtain insurance with respect thereto as required by this
Section 11.2. Any insurance payments received from insurance maintained by the
Additional Insured pursuant to the previous sentence shall be retained by the
Additional Insured without reducing or otherwise affecting Lessee's obligations
hereunder.

SECTION 12. TERMINATION AND END OF TERM OPTIONS

      12.1  Termination Option.

            (a)   Termination Option. Lessee may, at its option, terminate this
Lease (the "Termination Option") on any Basic Rent Payment Date pursuant to this
Section 12.1(a) upon the satisfactory completion of the following on or before
the Optional Termination Date:

                  (i)   Lessee shall give advance written notice thereof to
      Lessor specifying the Basic Rent Payment Date on which this Lease shall
      terminate (which date shall be a date occurring not earlier than three (3)
      days after the date of such notice but in no event after the Expiration
      Date (the "Optional Termination Date"));

                  (ii)  Lessee shall purchase all but not less than all of the
      Property by paying the sum of (x) the Termination Value for the Property
      to Lessor determined as of such Optional Termination Date (it being agreed
      that the Termination Value shall be adjusted by subtracting therefrom any
      Basic Rent previously paid by Lessee which is attributable to any period
      occurring on or after the Optional Termination Date and adding thereto any
      Basic Rent which has not been paid by Lessee but which has accrued for any
      portion of the Lease Term occurring prior to the Optional Termination
      Date) and, without duplication, (y) all Supplemental Rent due on or before
      or as a result of such Optional Termination Date, if any, to the Persons
      entitled thereto; provided, however, that Lessee shall be permitted to
      deduct the aggregate amount of any Lessor Liens (or Liens otherwise
      attributable to the Lessor or any Investor) existing on the Property as of
      the Optional Termination Date from the Termination Value and Supplemental
      Rent payable under this Section 12.1(a)(ii) and to apply such deducted
      amount to the payment of such Liens; and

                  (iii) the termination of this Lease and the purchase of the
      Property shall otherwise be in accordance with Section 12.1(b).

            (b)   Actions Required in Connection With Exercise of Termination
Option or other Purchase Rights. If Lessee shall have given Lessor notice of
termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 11.1(a) or Section 12.1(a), or
Lessee shall otherwise have the right or obligation to purchase the Property in
accordance with this Lease or the other Operative Documents, then concurrently
with the payment in full of all sums then owed to Lessor as provided in this
Lease:

                                       12
<PAGE>
                  (i)   all Rent for the Property shall cease to accrue;

                  (ii)  this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall cease to
      have any liability to Lessor with respect to the Property, except for
      Supplemental Rent and other obligations surviving pursuant to the express
      terms of this Lease or any other Operative Document; provided that it
      shall be a condition of such termination that Lessee shall pay all amounts
      due which it is obligated to pay under this Lease and the other Operative
      Documents;

                  (iii) Lessor shall in connection with the sale of the Property
      pursuant to Section 11.1(a) or Section 12.1(a)(ii), as the case may be, at
      Lessee's cost and expense, transfer on an "as is" and "where is" basis (by
      an appropriate instrument of transfer in form and substance reasonably
      satisfactory to Lessee (provided that such instrument of transfer shall
      not contain representations or warranties, express or implied, other than
      a warranty as to the absence of Liens attributable to Lessor or the
      Investors) and prepared and recorded at Lessee's expense) the Property in
      its then present physical condition to Lessee (or its designee); and

                  (iv)  Lessor shall execute and deliver, and/or cause to be
      executed and delivered, all appropriate releases and other documents or
      instruments (and in such form) as Lessee may reasonably request to effect
      the foregoing and otherwise to release the Property from the terms of this
      Lease, all of which shall be prepared, filed and, if appropriate, recorded
      at the cost and expense of Lessee.

           (c)   End of Term Purchase. Unless Lessee shall have properly
exercised the Termination Option or this Lease shall have otherwise terminated,
and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on the
Expiration Date the Lessee shall purchase from the Lessor, and the Lessor shall
convey to the Lessee, on the Expiration Date all of the Lessor's interest in the
Property for an amount equal to the Lease Balance (plus ten Dollars ($10.00) and
all other amounts owing in respect of Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent
theretofore accruing). The purchase of the Property pursuant to this Section
shall occur in accordance with Section 12.1(b). Lessee shall have the right to
withhold the final payment of Basic Rent, and deduct therefrom the aggregate
amount of any Lessor Liens (or Liens otherwise attributable to the Lessor or any
Investor) existing on the Property as of the Expiration Date and to apply such
deducted amount to the payment of such Liens, and the balance of such Basic Rent
payment shall be due on the Expiration Date.

            (d)   Designated Purchaser. In connection with any purchase of the
Property as permitted or required in this Lease, the Lessee may designate, in a
notice given to the Lessor not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the
closing of such purchase, the transferee or transferees to whom the conveyance
shall be made (if other than to the Lessee), in which case such conveyance shall
(subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein) be made to such designee;
provided, however, that such designation of a transferee or transferees shall
not cause the Lessee to be released, fully or partially, from any of its
obligations under this Lease.

                                       13
<PAGE>
SECTION 13. REQUIRED PURCHASE OF PROPERTY BY LESSEE.

      13.1  Put Event. If during the Lease Term the Guarantor either (i) records
in conformity with GAAP, consistently applied, on its financial statements net
cash proceeds of at least $100,000,000.00 as a result of a non-recurring,
non-operating gain arising out of an asset disposition or substantially similar
transaction or (ii) records net income of at least $12,500,000.00 per quarter,
averaged over eight (8) consecutive quarters (each such event being referred to
herein as a "Put Event"), Lessee shall notify Lessor promptly (and in all events
within 45 days after the occurrence of the Put Event) that a Put Event has
occurred (the "Event Notice"). Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the
Event Notice, Lessor shall have the right (exercised by notice to the Lessee
within such 30 day period) to cause Lessee to exercise the Termination Option in
accordance with Section 12.1 and acquire the Property upon payment of the sums
specified in Section 12.1; provided, however, notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 12.1 to the contrary, Lessee shall be required to close on the purchase
of the Termination Option on or before the 60th day after Lessee receives notice
from Lessor that Lessor is requiring Lessee to exercise the Termination Option.
Should Lessor fail to provide such notice within the 30 day period, Lessor's
right to require Lessee to exercise the Termination Option shall automatically
and without further action cease and terminate with respect to the Put Event
giving rise to the right in Lessor.

      13.2  Limitations on Required Purchase. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 13.1 to the contrary, in no event shall Lessor have the right to require
Lessee to acquire the Property pursuant to Section 13.1 if the purchase of the
Property resulting from the Put Event would conflict with or violate, or give
rise to a default or event of default under: (i) any Restructuring Indebtedness;
or (ii) any other financing arrangement, debt instrument or other agreement
evidencing Indebtedness to which the Guarantor or any Affiliate is a party as of
the Closing Date.

SECTION 14. INDEMNIFICATION

      14.1  General Indemnification. The Lessee agrees to assume liability for,
and to indemnify, protect, defend, save and keep harmless each Indemnitee, on an
After Tax Basis, from and against, any and all Claims that may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee, whether or not such Indemnitee
shall also be indemnified as to any such Claim by any other Person, in any way
relating to or arising out of:

            (a)   any injury or damage to Persons or property arising from the
actions or inactions of Lessee (or its employees, agents, Affiliates, or
invitees);

            (b)   this Lease, any of the other Operative Documents or any of the

respect thereof requested by Lessee;

            (d)   the purchase, design, construction, preparation, installation,
inspection, delivery, nondelivery, acceptance, rejection, ownership, management,
possession, operation, rental, lease, sublease, repossession, maintenance,
repair, alteration, modification, addition or substitution, storage, transfer of

operation, condition, sale (including any sale pursuant to this Lease), return
or other disposition of all or any part of any interest in the Property or the
imposition of any Lien (or incurring of any liability to refund or pay over any
amount as a result of any Lien) thereon, including: (1) Claims or penalties
arising from any violation of Applicable Law or in tort (on the basis of strict
liability or otherwise), (2) latent or other defects, whether or not
discoverable, (3) any Claim based upon a violation or alleged violation of the
terms of any restriction, easement, condition or covenant or other matter

maintain in effect all Governmental Approvals required under Applicable Law;

            (e)   the breach by the Lessee or Guarantor of any covenant,
representation or warranty made by them or deemed made by them in this Lease or
any other Operative Document or any certificate delivered pursuant to this Lease
or any other Operative Document; or

            (f)   the existence of any Lien on or with respect to the Property,
any Basic Rent or Supplemental Rent, title thereto, or any interest therein
including any Liens which arise out of the possession, use, occupancy,
construction, repair or rebuilding of the Property or by reason of labor or
materials furnished or claimed to have been furnished to the Lessee, or any of
its contractors or agents or by reason of the financing of any personalty or
equipment purchased or leased by the Lessee or Improvements constructed by the
Lessee, except Lessor Liens and Liens in favor of the Lessor;

provided, however, that the Lessee shall not be required to indemnify any
Indemnitee under this Section 14.1 for any of the following: (1) any Claim to
the extent resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such
Indemnitee, (2) any Claim resulting from Lessor Liens, and (3) any Claim for
lost opportunity costs of any Indemnitee or consequential or incidental damages
to any Indemnitee. It is expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity
provided for herein shall survive the expiration or termination of and shall be
separate and independent from any remedy under any other Operative Document.

     14.2  Environmental Indemnity. Without limitation of the other provisions
of this Section 14, and notwithstanding the fact that Lessee does not maintain
environmental insurance on the Property, the Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify,
hold harmless and defend each Indemnitee from and against any and all claims
(including third party claims for personal injury or real or personal property
damage), losses, damages, liabilities, fines, penalties, charges, administrative
and judicial proceedings (including informal proceedings) and orders, judgments,
remedial action, requirements, enforcement actions of any kind, and all costs
and expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys'
and/or paralegals' fees and expenses), including all costs incurred in
connection with any investigation or monitoring of site conditions or any
clean-up, remedial, removal or restoration work by any Governmental Authority,
caused by:

            (a)   Contamination on or under the Property resulting in an
Environmental Condition, or any Release of any Hazardous Material on, under,
from or onto the Property,

                                       15
<PAGE>
            (b)   any Environmental Claim or any activity, including
construction, carried on or undertaken on or off the Property, and whether by
the Lessee or any predecessor in title or any employees, agents, contractors or
subcontractors of the Lessee or any predecessor in title, in connection with the
handling, treatment, removal, storage, decontamination, clean-up, transport or
disposal of any Hazardous Material that at any time is located or present on or
under or that at any time migrates, flows, percolates, diffuses or in any way
moves onto or under the Property,

            (c)   Hazardous Material released from the Property to the
environment or Environmental Conditions on or emanating from the Property
(including clean-up costs, response costs, remediation and removal costs, costs
of corrective action, costs of financial assurance, third party claims, fines
and penalties and natural resource damages), causing death or injury to any
Person, or to property, wildlife, aquatic species, vegetation, flora and fauna,
and any resulting mitigative action required by or under Environmental Laws,

            (d)   any claim concerning lack of compliance with Environmental
Laws, or any act or omission on the Property causing an Environmental Condition
that requires remediation or causes any Governmental Authority to record a Lien
on the land records, or

            (e)   any Contamination requiring investigation, remediation,
corrective action or other response under any Environmental Law on or under the
Property, or affecting any natural resources, arising in connection with the
generation, use, handling, storage, transport or disposal of any Hazardous
Materials on the Property, and irrespective of whether any of such activities
were or will be undertaken in accordance with Applicable Laws;

provided, however, that the Lessee shall not be required to indemnify any
Indemnitee under this Section 14.2 for: (i) any Claim to the extent resulting
from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, and (ii) any
Claim relating to a Release first occurring after the termination of this Lease
and while Lessor is in possession of the Property. It is expressly understood
and agreed that the indemnity provided for herein shall survive the expiration
or termination of and shall be separate and independent from any remedy under
any other Operative Document.

      14.3  Proceedings in Respect of Claims. In case any action, suit or
proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnitee for which indemnification is
or will at any time be sought hereunder, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify
the Lessee of the commencement thereof, and the Lessee shall be entitled, at the
Lessee's expense, to participate in, and, to the extent that the Lessee desires
to, assume and control the defense thereof with counsel acceptable to such
Indemnitee. The Lessee, at the request of each Indemnitee, shall keep such
Indemnitee apprised of the status of such action, suit or proceeding and shall
provide such Indemnitee with all information with respect to such action, suit
or proceeding as such Indemnitee shall reasonably request, and provided,
further, that the Lessee shall not be entitled to assume and control the defense
of any such action, suit or proceeding if and to the extent that (A) in the
reasonable opinion of such Indemnitee (x) such action, suit or proceeding
involves any risk of imposition of criminal liability or will involve a material
or imminent risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, the Property or any part
thereof unless, in the case of civil liability or a potential Lien, the Lessee
shall have posted a bond or other security satisfactory to the relevant
Indemnitees in respect to such risk or (y) the control of such action, suit or
proceeding would involve an actual or potential

                                       16
<PAGE>
conflict of interest, (B) such proceeding involves Claims not fully indemnified
by the Lessee which the Lessee and the Indemnitee has been unable to sever the
indemnified Claim(s) from the indemnified Claim(s) (it being understood that the
Indemnitee will join in the Lessee's efforts to sever such action), or (C) an
Event of Default under the Lease has occurred and is continuing. The Indemnitee
may participate in any proceeding conducted by the Lessee in accordance with the
foregoing. The Lessee shall not enter into any settlement or other compromise
with respect to any Claim which is entitled to be indemnified under Sections
14.1 or 14.2 without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, (which consent
shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed) except that no such
consent shall be required for any Claims the settlement of which do not involve
an admission of wrongdoing on the part of such Indemnitee.

      The Lessee and each Indemnitee agree to give each other prompt written
notice of any Claim hereby indemnified against but the giving of any such notice
by an Indemnitee shall not be a condition to the Lessee's obligations under this
Sections 14.1 or 14.2. Each Indemnitee shall at the expense of the Lessee supply
the Lessee with such information and documents reasonably requested by the
Lessee as are necessary or advisable for the Lessee to participate in, or assume
and control the defense of, any action, suit or proceeding to the extent
permitted by Sections 14.1 or 14.2. With respect to any Claim or amount that the
Lessee is requested by an Indemnitee to pay pursuant to Sections 14.1 or 14.2,
such Indemnitee shall, at the expense of the Lessee, if so requested by the
Lessee and prior to any payment, submit such additional information and
documents to the Lessee as the Lessee may reasonably request and which is in the
possession of or reasonably available to Indemnitee to substantiate properly or
which is otherwise related to the requested payment or related Claim.

      After an Indemnitee has been fully indemnified for a Claim or upon payment
in full of any Claim to or on behalf of an Indemnitee, as applicable, by the
Lessee pursuant to Sections 14.1 or 14.2, the Lessee, without any further
action, shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such Indemnitee may have
relating thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance policies maintained
by such Indemnitee at its own expense), and such Indemnitee shall execute such
instruments of assignment and conveyance, evidence of claims and payment and
such other documents, instruments and agreements as may be necessary to preserve
any such claims and otherwise cooperate with the Lessee and give such further
assurances as are necessary or advisable to enable the Lessee vigorously to
pursue such claims.

      Any amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant to Sections 14.1 or 14.2
shall be paid to such Indemnitee promptly upon receipt of a written demand
therefor from such Indemnitee, accompanied by a written statement describing in
reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount
so payable.

      14.4  General Tax Indemnity.

            (a)   Indemnification. The Lessee shall pay and assume liability
for, and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect and defend the Property and all
Tax Indemnitees, and hold them harmless against, all Impositions on an After Tax
Basis, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys', accounting and
investigation fees. It is expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity
provided for herein shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease

                                       17
<PAGE>
and shall be separate and independent from any remedy under this Lease or any
other Operative Document.

            (b)   Contests. If any claim shall be made against any Tax
Indemnitee or if any proceeding shall be commenced against any Tax Indemnitee
(including a written notice of such proceeding) for any Imposition as to which
the Lessee may have an indemnity obligation pursuant to this Section 14.4, or if
any Tax Indemnitee shall determine that any Imposition to which the Lessee may
have an indemnity obligation pursuant to this Section 14.4 may be payable, such
Tax Indemnitee shall promptly (and in any event, within twenty (20) days) notify
the Lessee in writing (provided that failure to so notify the Lessee within
twenty (20) days shall not alter such Tax Indemnitee's rights under this Section
14.4 except to the extent such failure precludes or materially adversely affects
the ability to conduct a contest of any indemnified Imposition) and shall not
take any action with respect to such claim, proceeding or Imposition without the
written consent of the Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed) for thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice by
the Lessee; provided, however, that in the case of any such claim or proceeding,
if such Tax Indemnitee shall be required by law or regulation to take action
prior to the end of such thirty (30) day period, such Tax Indemnitee shall
immediately notify the Lessee, and such Tax Indemnitee shall not take any action
with respect to such claim, proceeding or Imposition without the consent of the
Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)
for ten (10) days after the receipt of such notice by the Lessee unless such Tax
Indemnitee shall be required by law or regulation to take action prior to the
end of such 10-day period.

      The Lessee shall be entitled for a period of thirty (30) days from receipt
of such notice from such Tax Indemnitee (or such shorter period as such Tax
Indemnitee has notified the Lessee is required by law or regulation for such Tax
Indemnitee to commence such contest), to request in writing that such Tax
Indemnitee contest, or, subject to the next succeeding sentence that such Tax
Indemnitee permit the Lessee to contest, such Imposition, in either case at the
Lessee's expense. If (x) such contest can be pursued in the name of the Lessee
and independently from any other proceeding involving a liability of such Tax
Indemnitee for which the Lessee has not agreed to indemnify such Tax Indemnitee,
(y) such contest must be pursued in the name of such Tax Indemnitee, but can be
pursued independently from any other proceeding involving a liability of such
Tax Indemnitee for which the Lessee has not agreed to indemnify such Tax
Indemnitee or (z) such Tax Indemnitee so requests, then the Lessee shall be
permitted to control the contest of such claim, provided that in the case of a
contest described in clause (y), if such contest by the Lessee could have a
material adverse impact on the business or operations of such Tax Indemnitee and
such Tax Indemnitee provides a written explanation to the Lessee of such
determination, such Tax Indemnitee may elect to control or reassert control of
the contest, and provided, further, that in determining the application of
clauses (x) and (y) of the preceding sentence, each Tax Indemnitee shall take
any and all reasonable steps to segregate claims for any Imposition for which
the Lessee indemnifies hereunder from Impositions for which the Lessee is not
obligated to indemnify hereunder, so that the Lessee can control the contest of
the former. In all other claims requested to be contested by the Lessee, such
Tax Indemnitee shall control the contest of such claim, acting through counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Lessee. In no event shall the Lessee be permitted
to contest (or such Tax Indemnitee be required to contest) any claim (A) if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing unless the Lessee shall have
posted and maintained a bond or other security satisfactory to the relevant Tax
Indemnitee in

                                       18
<PAGE>
respect of the Impositions subject to such claim and any and all expenses for
which the Lessee is responsible hereunder that are reasonably foreseeable in
connection with the contest of such claim, or (B) if such contest shall involve
the payment of the Imposition prior to the contest, unless the Lessee shall
provide to such Tax Indemnitee an interest-free advance in an amount equal to
the Imposition that the Tax Indemnitee is required to pay (with no additional
net after-tax costs to such Tax Indemnitee). In addition for Tax Indemnitee
controlled contests and claims contested in the name of such Tax Indemnitee in a
public forum, no contest shall be required: (A) unless the amount of the
potential indemnity (taking into account all similar or logically related claims
that have been or could be raised in any audit involving such Tax Indemnitee
with respect to any period for which the Lessee may be liable to pay an
indemnity under this Section 14.4(b)) exceeds $15,000 and (B) unless, if
requested by such Tax Indemnitee, the Lessee shall have provided to such Tax
Indemnitee an opinion of counsel selected by the Lessee (which may be in-house
counsel) (except, in the case of income taxes indemnified hereunder, in which
case such opinion shall be an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by
such Tax Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to the Lessee) that a reasonable
basis exists to contest such claim. In no event shall a Tax Indemnitee be
required to appeal an adverse judicial determination to the United States
Supreme Court.

      The party conducting the contest shall consult in good faith with the
other party and its counsel with respect to the contest of such claim for
Impositions (or claim for refund) but the decisions regarding what actions to be
taken shall be made by the controlling party in its sole judgment, provided,
however, that if such Tax Indemnitee is the controlling party and the Lessee
recommends the acceptance of a settlement offer made by the relevant
Governmental Authority and such Tax Indemnitee rejects such settlement offer,
then the amount for which the Lessee will be required to indemnify such Tax
Indemnitee with respect to the Taxes subject to such offer shall not exceed the
amount which it would have owed if such settlement offer had been accepted. In
addition, the controlling party shall keep the noncontrolling party reasonably
informed as to the progress of the contest, and shall provide the noncontrolling
party with a copy of (or appropriate excerpts from) any reports or claims issued
by the relevant auditing agents or taxing authority to the controlling party
thereof, in connection with such claim or the contest thereof.

      Each Tax Indemnitee shall, at the Lessee's expense, supply the Lessee with
such information and documents reasonably requested by the Lessee as are
necessary or advisable for the Lessee to participate in any action, suit or
proceeding to the extent permitted by this Section 14.4(b); provided, however,
that such Tax Indemnitee shall not be required to provide to the Lessee copies
of its tax returns or any documentation or materials that it deems to be
confidential or proprietary. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 14.4(b) to
the contrary, no Tax Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement or other
compromise or fail to appeal an adverse ruling with respect to any claim which
is entitled to be indemnified under this Section 14.4 (and with respect to which
contest is required under this Section 14.4(b)) without the prior written
consent of the Lessee, unless such Tax Indemnitee waives its right to be
indemnified under this Section 14.4 with respect to such claim and pays to the
Lessee any amount previously paid or advanced by Lessee pursuant to this Section
14.4 with respect to such claim.

      Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, a Tax
Indemnitee will not be required to contest (and the Lessee shall not be
permitted to contest) a claim with respect to the

                                       19
<PAGE>
imposition of any Imposition if such Tax Indemnitee shall waive its right to
indemnification under this Section 14.4 with respect to such claim (and any
claim with respect to such year or any other taxable year the contest of which
is materially adversely affected as a result of such waiver).

            (c)   Payments. Any Imposition indemnifiable under this Section 14.4
shall be paid directly when due to the applicable taxing authority if direct
payment is practicable and permitted. If direct payment to the applicable taxing
authority is not permitted or is otherwise not made, any amount payable to a Tax
Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 14.4 shall be paid within thirty (30) days
after receipt of a written demand therefor from such Tax Indemnitee accompanied
by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the amount so payable,
but not before two (2) Business Days prior to the date that the relevant Taxes
are due. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 14.4 shall be made directly
to such Tax Indemnitee entitled thereto or the Lessee, as the case may be, in
immediately available funds at such bank or to such account as specified by the
payee in written directions to the payor, or, if no such direction shall have
been given, by check of the payor payable to the order of the payee by certified
mail, postage prepaid at its address as set forth in Schedule 5.1(g) to the
Purchase Agreement. Upon the request of any Tax Indemnitee with respect to an
Imposition that the Lessee is required to pay, the Lessee shall furnish to such
Tax Indemnitee the original or a certified copy of a receipt for the Lessee's
payment of such Imposition or such other evidence of payment as is reasonably
acceptable to such Tax Indemnitee.

            (d)   Reports. In the case of any report, return or statement
required to be filed with respect to any Imposition that are subject to
indemnification under this Section 14.4 and of which the Lessee has knowledge,
the Lessee shall promptly notify such Tax Indemnitee of such requirement and, at
the Lessee's expense (i) if the Lessee is permitted (unless otherwise requested
by such Tax Indemnitee) by Applicable Law, timely file such report, return or
statement in its own name or (ii) if such report, return or statement is
required to be in the name of or filed by such Tax Indemnitee or such Tax
Indemnitee otherwise requests that such report, return or statement for filing
by such Tax Indemnitee in such manner as shall be satisfactory to such Tax
Indemnitee and send the same to such Tax Indemnitee for filing no later than
fifteen (15) days prior to the due date therefor. In any case in which such Tax
Indemnitee will file any such report, return or statement, the Lessee shall,
upon written request of such Tax Indemnitee, provide such Tax Indemnitee with
such information as is reasonably necessary to allow such Tax Indemnitee to file
such report, return or statement.

            (e)   Verification. At the Lessee's request, the amount of any
indemnity payment by the Lessee or any payment by a Tax Indemnitee to the Lessee
pursuant to this Section 14.4 shall be verified and certified by an independent
public accounting firm mutually acceptable to the Lessee and such Tax
Indemnitee. The costs of such verification shall be borne by the Lessee. In no
event shall the Lessee have the right to review such Tax Indemnitee's tax
returns or receive any other confidential information from such Tax Indemnitee
in connection with such verification. Each of the Lessee and such Tax Indemnitee
shall provide such accounting firm with all information and materials as shall
be reasonably necessary or desirable in connection with such verification. Any
information provided to such accountants by any Person shall be and remain the
exclusive property of such Person and shall be deemed by the parties to be (and
the accountants will confirm in writing that they will treat such information
as)

                                       20
<PAGE>
the private, proprietary and confidential property of such Person, and no Person
other than such Person and the accountants shall be entitled thereto and all
such materials shall be returned to such Person. Such accounting firm shall be
requested to make its determination within thirty (30) days of the Lessee's
request for verification and the computations of the accounting firm shall be
final, binding and conclusive upon the Lessee and such Tax Indemnitee. The
parties agree that the sole responsibility of the independent public accounting
firm shall be to verify the amount of a payment pursuant to this Lease and that
matters of interpretation of this Lease are not within the scope of the
independent accounting firm's responsibilities.

SECTION 15. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

      The following shall constitute events of default (each, an "Event of
Default") hereunder:

      15.1  Payment Default. (a) Any payment of Basic Rent shall not have been
paid within ten (10) days of when due, (b) the Termination Value shall not have
been paid within ten (10) days of when due or (c) any other amount due and
payable under this Lease or the other Operative Documents, including
Supplemental Rent, shall not have been paid within thirty (30) days of its
respective due date.

      15.2  Covenant Defaults. Lessee defaults in the performance or observance
of any of its obligations hereunder and such default continues unremedied for a
period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by Lessor to Lessee;
provided, however, that no Event of Default shall occur under this sentence if
the remedy reasonably requires in excess of thirty (30) days and within such 30
day period, Lessee commences such cure and diligently prosecutes the same to
completion.

      15.3  Bankruptcy. If Lessee or Guarantor shall:

            (a)   apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee
or liquidator of such Person or of all or a substantial part of such Person's
assets;

            (b)   be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent, or file a voluntary
petition in bankruptcy, or admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as
they come due;

            (c)   make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors;

            (d)   file a petition or an answer seeking reorganization or
arrangement with creditors or take advantage of any insolvency law;

            (e)   file an answer admitting the material allegations of, or
consent to, or default in answering, a petition filed against such Person in any
bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceedings; or

            (f)   be the subject of an order, judgment or decree entered by any
court of competent jurisdiction, approving a petition seeking reorganization of
such Person or appointing a receiver, trustee or liquidator of such Person or of
all or a substantial part of such Person's assets, and such order, judgment or
decree shall continue unstayed and in effect for any period of one hundred
twenty (120) consecutive days.

                                       21
<PAGE>
SECTION 16. REMEDIES.

      16.1  Remedies on Default. Whenever any Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Lessor may, upon written notice to Lessee, at its
option, declare this Lease to be in default, and at any time thereafter, so long
as all outstanding Events of Default shall not have been remedied, Lessor may
take any one or more of the following actions as Lessor in its sole discretion
shall elect, to the extent permitted by and subject to compliance with any
mandatory requirements of Applicable Law:

            (a)   Lessor shall have the right to demand in writing that Lessee
pay to Lessor immediately, as and for final liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, but exclusive of the indemnities payable under Section 14 of this Lease
and other amounts payable by Lessee under the Operative Documents, and in lieu
of all damages (including Rent (other than Supplemental Rent)) beyond the date
of such demand (the "Demand Date"), and Lessee shall immediately pay the
Termination Value for the Property determined as of the Basic Rent Payment Date
immediately preceding the Demand Date (it being agreed that the Termination
Value shall be adjusted by subtracting therefrom any Basic Rent previously paid
by Lessee which is attributable to any period occurring on or after the Demand
Date and adding thereto any Basic Rent which has not been paid by Lessee but
which has accrued for any portion of the Lease Term occurring prior to the
Demand Date); provided that if an Event of Default described in Section 15.3
shall occur with respect to Lessee or Guarantor, the Termination Value
determined in accordance with this Section 16.1(a) shall automatically, and
without any action on the part of Lessor, become immediately due and payable.
Lessee waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to contest the
Termination Value as the liquidated sum due upon acceleration of this Lease in
accordance with this Section 16.1. Concurrently with the payment by Lessee of
the Termination Value to Lessor pursuant to this Section 16.1(a) and the payment
of all Supplemental Rent due and owing under the Operative Documents to the
Persons entitled thereto:

                  (i)   all Rent for the Facility shall cease to accrue;

                  (ii)  this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall cease to
      have any liability to Lessor with respect to the Property, except for
      Supplemental Rent and other obligations surviving pursuant to the express
      terms of this Lease and any other Operative Document; provided that it
      shall be a condition of such termination that Lessee shall pay all amounts
      due which it is obligated to pay under this Lease and the other Operative
      Documents;

                  (iii) Lessor shall transfer on an "as is" and "where is" basis
      (by an appropriate instrument of transfer in form and substance reasonably
      satisfactory to Lessee (provided that such instrument of transfer shall
      not contain representations or warranties, express or implied, other than
      a warranty as to the absence of Liens attributable to Lessor or the
      Investors) and prepared and recorded at Lessee's expense) the Property to
      Lessee (or its designee); and

                  (iv)  Lessor, at Lessee's cost and expense, shall execute and
      deliver and/or cause to be executed and delivered, all appropriate
      releases and other documents

                                       22
<PAGE>
      or instruments (and in such form) as Lessee may reasonably request to
      effect the foregoing and otherwise to release the Property from the terms
      of this Lease, all of which shall be prepared, filed and, if appropriate,
      recorded at the cost and expense of Lessee;

            (b)   Lessor may (i) terminate this Lease as of the date specified
in writing to Lessee and (ii) declare the entire balance of Basic Rent to be due
and payable together with accrued unpaid Basic Rent and any other Supplemental
Rent payable under this Lease and the other Operative Documents, provided that
no reletting or taking possession of the Property by Lessor will be construed as
a termination of this Lease by Lessor unless Lessor has delivered written notice
of its intent to terminate this Lease;

            (c)   Lessee shall, upon Lessor's written demand, surrender to
Lessor possession of the Property in the manner and condition required under
this Lease and Lessee shall quit the same. Lessor may act to repossess the
Property by such means as are available at law or in equity. Lessor shall have
no liability by reason of any such repossession performed in accordance with
Applicable Law;

            (d)   Lessor may, upon twenty (20) days' prior written notice to
Lessee of its intention to sell the Property (indicating the date, time and
place of any such proposed sale) and subject to Applicable Law, sell in good
faith and in a commercially reasonable manner all or any part of the Property at
public or private sale, as Lessor may determine;

            (e)   Lessor may relet all, or any portion, of the Property, for the
account of Lessee, for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the
period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Lease Term) and
on such conditions and for such purposes as Lessor may determine. Lessor may
collect, receive and retain the rents resulting from such reletting and the
amount of such rents shall be applied to the Lease Balance. If the amount of
such rents during any period is less than the Basic Rent, as the case may be, to
be paid during that period by Lessee hereunder, Lessee shall pay any deficiency,
as calculated by Lessor, to Lessor on the next Basic Rent Payment Date;

            (f)   If the Event of Default is the result of Lessee's failure to
perform any of its obligations under this Lease or any other Operative Document,
then, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to, perform such obligation, and
the fees and expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with such performance
together with interest thereon shall be payable by Lessee upon demand. Interest
on fees and expenses so incurred by Lessor shall accrue as provided in Section
4.1(b) from the date such expense is incurred until paid in full;

            (g)   Lessor, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, as a matter
of right, shall have the right to apply to any court having jurisdiction to
appoint a receiver or receivers of the Property, and Lessee hereby irrevocably
consents to any such appointment. Any such receiver(s) shall have all of the
usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases and all of the
powers and duties of Lessor in case of entry, and shall continue as such and
exercise such powers until the date of confirmation of the sale of such property
unless such receivership is sooner terminated; and

                                       23
<PAGE>
            (h)   Lessor may exercise any other right or remedy that may be
available to it under Applicable Law, or proceed by appropriate court action
(legal or equitable) to enforce the terms hereof and/or to recover damages for
the breach hereof; and

            (i)   Lessor shall be entitled to enforce payment of the
indebtedness and performance of the obligations secured hereby and to exercise
all rights and powers under this instrument or under any of the other Operative
Documents or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding some or all of
the obligations secured hereby may now or hereafter be otherwise secured,
whether by mortgage, security agreement, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise.
Neither the acceptance of this instrument nor its enforcement, shall prejudice
or in any manner affect Lessor's right to realize upon or enforce any other
security now or hereafter held by Lessor, it being agreed that Lessor shall be
entitled to enforce this instrument and any other security now or hereafter held
by Lessor in such order and manner as Lessor may determine in its absolute
discretion. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Lessor is intended to
be exclusive or any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but
each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every
power or remedy given by any of the Operative Documents to Lessor or to which it
may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from
time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Lessor. In no event
shall Lessor, in the exercises of the remedies provided in this instrument or
the other Operative Documents (including the appointment of a receiver and the
entry of such receiver onto all or any part of the Property), be deemed a
mortgagee in possession, and Lessor shall not in any way be made liable for any
act, either of commission or omission, in connection with the excise of such
remedies.

      16.2  No Delay or Omission to be Construed as Waiver. No delay in
exercising or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to Lessor
upon any breach or default by Lessee under this Lease shall impair any such
right, power or remedy of Lessor, nor shall any such delay or omission be
construed as a waiver of any breach or default, or of any similar breach or
default hereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of a single breach or default
be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default.

      16.3  Waiver of Certain Rights. To the maximum extent permitted by
Applicable Law, Lessee hereby waives the benefit of any appraisement, valuation,
stay, extension, reinstatement and redemption laws now or hereinafter in force
and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale of the Property. Subject
to the foregoing, if this Lease shall be terminated pursuant to this Section 16,
Lessee waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) any notice
of repossession or the institution of legal proceedings to obtain repossession,
(b) any right of redemption or repossession except as expressly provided herein,
(c) the benefit of any laws now or hereafter in force exempting property from
liability for rent or for debt or limiting Lessor with respect to the election
of remedies, and (d) any other rights which might otherwise limit or modify any
of Lessor's rights or remedies under this Section 16.

SECTION 17. PREPAYMENT.

      17.1  Optional Prepayment. Lessee may, on any Basic Rent Payment Date,
prepay all or any portion of the Lease Balance at any time and from time to time
by making payment in accordance with Section 4.2 (each such payment an "Optional
Prepayment").

      17.2  Mandatory Prepayment. Lessee shall, on each Annual Basic Rent
Payment Date, prepay all or a portion of the Lease Balance by making payment in
accordance with Section 4.2 (each such payment a "Mandatory Prepayment"), as
follows based on the average annual hot band process as stated in the index of
hot rolled prices as reported in Purchasing Magazine (the "Index"):

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
               Published Average Annual                         Amount of
                    Hot Band Prices                       Mandatory Pre-Payment
                    ---------------                       ---------------------
<S>                                                       <C>
      Less than $305 per ton                                        $0

      Equal to $305 per ton but less than $320
      per ton                                                  $1.0 million

      Equal to $320 per ton but less than $335
      per ton                                                  $1.5 million

      Equal to or in excess of $335
      per ton                                                  $2.0 million
</TABLE>

The Mandatory Prepayment shall be calculated as of March 1 of the applicable
year by reference to the Index published at the end of the previous calendar
year. Should the Index be discontinued, Lessor and Lessee shall negotiate in
good faith to agree to another appropriate index or methodology for calculating
the Mandatory Prepayment in a manner that most closely equates to the
calculation that would otherwise be derived by reference to the Index.

      17.3  Energy Co-Payments. Lessee shall, on each Basic Rent Payment Date,
prepay all or a portion of the Lease Balance by making a payment in accordance
with Section 4.2 equal to the payments, if any, made to Lessee by Allegheny
Power pursuant to the Power Supply Agreement since the immediately preceding
Basic Rent Payment Date (deducting therefrom cost of goods sold (including fuel
but excluding depreciation) and all taxes payable in connection therewith) (each
such payment an "Energy Co-Payment").

      17.4  Application of Prepayments and Energy Co-Payments. Prepayments and
Energy Co-Payments shall reduce the Lease Balance, but shall not relieve Lessee
from making payments of Basic Rent on Basic Rent Payment Dates prior to the time
at which the Lease Balance equals zero. Prepayments and Energy Co-Payments shall
be applied against the Lease Balance in inverse order of maturity.

SECTION 18. ACCOUNTING SYSTEM; BOOKS AND RECORDS; INFORMATION

            (a)   Accounting System. The Lessee shall maintain a system of
accounting established and administered in conformity with GAAP, consistently
applied, and will set aside on its books all such proper reserves as shall be
required by GAAP, except that, should the requirements of GAAP change, the
Lessee will not be required to alter a previously utilized accounting method or
policy in order to remain in conformity with GAAP, as so changed.

                                       25
<PAGE>
            (b)   Books and Records. The Lessee will keep books of record and
account regarding this Lease and shall maintain, on a current basis, books of
proper record and account in conformity with GAAP, consistently applied (to the
extent applicable), which books shall include copies of all Operative Documents
and any amendments thereto and of each material item of property comprising or
included in the Property, and shall provide copies of the foregoing to the
Lessor from time to time on request at the Lessee's expense. The Lessee will (i)
keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries
in conformity with GAAP, consistently applied, shall be made of all dealings and
transactions in relation to its business and activities; and (ii) permit
representatives of the Lessor, upon at least five (5) Business Days' prior
written notice to Lessee (x) at the Lessor's expense prior to the occurrence and
continuance of an Event of Default and (y) at the Lessee's expense after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to visit and
inspect the Property at reasonable times and under conditions reasonably
acceptable to Lessee, and any of Lessee's other properties, to examine and make
abstracts from any of the Lessee's books and records and to discuss the Lessee's
affairs, finances and accounts with the Lessee's officers, employees and
independent public accountants. The Lessee agrees to cooperate and assist in
such visits and inspections, in each case at such reasonable times and as often
as may reasonably be desired.

            (c)   Information. The Lessee will deliver to the Lessor:

                  (i)   as soon as available and in any event within one hundred
      twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, a balance sheet of
      the Lessee as of the end of such fiscal year and the related statements of
      income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for such fiscal year, setting
      forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal
      year, all certified by the chief financial officer, the chief accounting
      officer or treasurer of the Lessee;

                  (ii)  as soon as available and in any event within sixty (60)
      days after the end of each of the first three (3) fiscal quarters of each
      fiscal year, a balance sheet of the Lessee as of the end of such fiscal
      quarter and the related statement of income and statement of cash flows
      for such fiscal quarter and for the part of the fiscal year ended at the
      end of such fiscal quarter, setting forth in each case in comparative form
      the figures for the corresponding fiscal quarter and the corresponding
      portion of the previous fiscal year, all certified (subject to normal
      year-end adjustments) as to fairness of presentation, GAAP and consistency
      by the chief financial officer, the chief accounting officer or treasurer
      of the Lessee;

                  (iii) promptly upon the filing thereof, copies of all
      registration statements (other than the exhibits thereto and any
      registration statements on Form S-8 or its equivalent) and annual,
      quarterly or monthly reports which the Lessee shall have filed with the
      Securities and Exchange Commission;

                  (iv)  promptly, and, in any event, within ten (10) business
      days after the Lessee has actual knowledge of any Event of Default, a
      certificate of the chief financial officer, the chief accounting officer
      or treasurer of the Lessee setting forth the details thereof and the
      action which the Lessee is taking or proposes to take with respect
      thereto;

                                       26
<PAGE>
                  (v)   from time to time such additional information regarding
      the financial position or business of the Lessee and the Guarantor as the
      Lessor, at the request of any of the Investors, may reasonably request.

SECTION 19. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. In the event that pursuant to the final
determination of a court of competent jurisdiction the transaction contemplated
in this Lease and the other Operative Documents is deemed to be a financing
rather than a lease, this Lease shall be treated as a credit line deed of trust
and a security agreement or other similar instrument (this Lease, as so treated,
is the "Mortgage"); namely, (i) a credit line deed of trust from the Lessee, as
grantor, to Roger D. Hunter, as trustee for the benefit of the Lessor (together
with any successor trustee appointed by the Lessor, the "Trustee"), as grantee,
on that part of the Property constituting real property, identified on Schedule
1 attached hereto, and is to be construed as a credit line deed of trust under
the laws of the State of West Virginia relating to deeds of trust, and not as a
mortgage, and the Lessee, as grantor, irrevocably grants, bargains, sells,
assigns and conveys unto the Trustee in trust, with power of sale and right of
entry and possession except as to those portions and components of the Property
that constitute personal property, under and subject to the terms hereof, for
the benefit of the Lessor, all of the Lessee's interest and estate, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired (whether fee, leasehold, legal or equitable) and
whether the same now exist or hereafter come into existence, in and to the
Property, all Governmental Approvals relating to the Property and all rents,
issues, revenues and profits therefrom (for purposes of this Section 19,
hereinafter referred to as the "Collateral"), TO HAVE AND TO HOLD FOREVER the
Collateral and all parts, rights, members and appurtenances thereof, to the use
and benefit of the Trustee and the heirs, successors and assigns of the Trustee
and the Lessee covenants that the Lessee is lawfully possessed of the aforesaid
real property and has good right to encumbered the same, that the same is
unencumbered except for the Permitted Property Liens and that the Lessee does
warrant and will forever defend title thereto against the claims of all persons
whomsoever; and (ii) as a security agreement from the Lessee, as debtor, to the
Lessor as secured party, encumbering all personal property comprising the
Collateral, and that the Lessee, as debtor, hereby grants to the Lessor, as
secured party (together with its successors and permitted assigns, collectively,
the "Secured Party") a first and prior lien on and security interest in the
equipment, fixtures, and any and all other personal property of any kind or
character comprising the Collateral and all proceeds therefrom, in each case
being effective as of the date of this Lease. The Secured Party shall have all
of the rights, powers and remedies of beneficiaries, grantees and secured
parties available under Applicable Law, including, without limitation, judicial
or nonjudicial foreclosure or power of sale, as and to the extent available
under Applicable Law, and the amounts secured by the liens and security
interests shall be the collective amount of the aggregate Rent, up to but not in
excess of $30,000,000.00, together with unpaid interest thereon, plus any other
amounts owing to the Secured Party under the Operative Documents (including,
without limitation, Supplemental Rent) (collectively, the "Secured Amount"). The
filing of this Lease (or a memorandum hereof) shall be deemed to constitute the
filing of a credit line deed of trust and the filing of any financing statement
in connection with this Lease shall be deemed to constitute the filing of a
financing statement to perfect the security interests in the Collateral as
aforesaid to secure the payment of all amounts due from time to time from the
Lessee to the Secured Party under this Lease and the other Operative Documents.
If this transaction is treated as a financing, the obligation arising hereunder
shall be with full recourse to the Lessee to the extent of the Secured Amount
and shall not be treated as recourse only to the Collateral.

                                       27
<PAGE>
            Inasmuch as Lessee and Secured Party intend that this Mortgage
shall, among other things, constitute a fixture filing financing statement, the
undersigned sets forth the following:

            (a)   The debtor is the Lessee and the grantor hereunder, FW
Holdings, Inc., and its address is set forth below in Paragraph 22.4
hereinbelow.

            (b)   The Secured Party is the Lessor and the grantee hereunder,
MABCO Steam Company, LLC, and its address is set forth in Paragraph 22.4
hereinbelow.

            (c)   The real estate concerned is described in Schedule 1 and the
record owner thereof is MABCO Steam Company, LLC.

            (d)   THE SECURED PARTY DESIRES THIS FINANCING STATEMENT TO BE
INDEXED AGAINST THE LESSEE AND THE COLLATERAL AS A FIXTURE FILING.

      This Mortgage is given to secure the payment and performance by the Lessee
of the Secured Amount and other obligations under the Operative Documents,
including without limitation the following:

                  (i)   The Rent representing an aggregate indebtedness in the
      amount of up to $30,000,000.00, with final payment being due, unless
      extended in accordance with this Lease, on or before December 31, 2012;
      and

                  (ii)  Any and all additional advances made by the Secured
      Party or the Trustee to protect or preserve the Collateral or the lien
      hereof on the Collateral, or for taxes, assessments or insurance premiums
      as herein provided (whether or not the original Lessee remains the owner
      of the Collateral at the time of such advances).

      Lessee expressly understands and agrees that this Mortgage secures future
advances or extensions of credit with interest thereon that the Secured Party
shall make to Lessee from time to time. All advances, whether made at the time
of recording hereof or to be made in the future, are secured by this Mortgage as
if made on the date of recording hereof. However, the aggregate maximum
principal amount of the indebtedness secured hereunder at any one time
outstanding shall not exceed the sum of Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000.00).
THE FUTURE ADVANCES TO BE SECURED BY THIS CREDIT LINE DEED OF TRUST ARE INTENDED
TO BE OBLIGATORY FOR PURPOSES OF WEST VIRGINIA CODE SECTION 38-1-14 (a)(3).

      In order to preserve the security interest and lien provided for herein,
the Secured Party and the Lessee agree to abide by the following provisions with
regard to the Collateral:

            (a)   Change in Location of Collateral or the Lessee. The Lessee (i)
will notify the Secured Party on or before the date of any change in (A) the
location of the Collateral (B) the location of the Lessee's chief executive
office or address, (C) the name of the Lessee and (D) the corporate structure of
the Lessee, and (ii) will, on or before the date of any such change, prepare and
file new or amended financing statements as necessary so that the Secured Party
shall

                                       28
<PAGE>
continue to have a first and prior perfected lien (subject only to Permitted
Liens) in the Collateral after any such change.

            (b)   Documents; Collateral in Possession of Third Parties. If
certificates of title or other documents evidencing ownership or possession of
the Collateral are issued or outstanding, the Lessee will cause the interest of
the Secured Party to be properly noted thereon and will, forthwith upon receipt,
deliver same to the Secured Party. If any Collateral is at any time in the
possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee, agent or independent
contractor, the Lessee shall notify such Person of the Secured Party's security
interest in such Collateral. Upon the Secured Party's request, the Lessee shall
instruct any such Person to hold all such Collateral for the Secured Party's
account subject to the Lessee's instructions, or, if an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, subject to the Secured Party's instructions.

            (c)   Sale, Disposition or Encumbrance of Collateral. Except for
Permitted Property Liens, as permitted by this Lease or any of the other
Operative Documents or with the Secured Party's prior written consent, the
Lessee will not in any way encumber any of the Collateral (or permit or suffer
any of the Collateral to be encumbered) or sell, assign, lend, rent, lease or
otherwise dispose of or transfer any of the Collateral to or in favor of any
Person other than the Trustee or the Secured Party.

            (d)   Proceeds of Collateral. Except as permitted by this Lease or
any of the other Operative Documents, the Lessee will deliver to the Secured
Party promptly upon receipt all proceeds delivered to the Lessee from the sale
or disposition of any Collateral. After the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, in the event the Lessee has not paid the
Termination Value pursuant to Section 16.1(a) all such proceeds and all proceeds
received by the Secured Party from the sale or disposition of any Collateral
pursuant to this Section 19 shall be applied (i) first to the expenses of sale
and all proceedings in connection therewith including attorneys' and trustee's
fees, (ii) secondly, to pay all accrued and unpaid Supplemental Rent, (iv)
thirdly, to pay all accrued and unpaid Basic Rent; and any proceeds then
remaining shall be paid to the Lessee. This Section 19 shall not be construed to
permit sales or dispositions of the Collateral except as may be elsewhere
expressly permitted by this Lease or the other Operative Documents.

            (e)   Further Assurances. Upon the reasonable request of the Secured
Party, the Lessee shall (at the Lessee's expense) execute and deliver all such
assignments, certificates, financing statements or other documents and give
further assurances and do all other acts and things as the Secured Party may
reasonably request to perfect the Secured Party's interest in the Collateral or
to protect, enforce or otherwise effect the Secured Party's rights and remedies
hereunder, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Secured
Party.

            (f)   Collateral Attached to Other Property. In the event that any
of the Collateral is removed from the Property and is to be attached or affixed
to any real property, the Lessee hereby agrees that a financing statement which
is a fixture filing may be filed for record in any appropriate real estate
records. If the Lessee is not the record owner of such real property, it will
provide the Secured Party with any additional security documents or financing
statements necessary for the perfection of the Secured Party's lien in the
Collateral, as requested by the Secured Party.

                                       29
<PAGE>
            (g)   Secured Amount. Should the Secured Amount be paid according to
the tenor and effect thereof when the same becomes due and payable hereunder,
and should the Lessee perform all covenants contained in the Operative Documents
in a timely manner, then the Trustee and the Secured Party shall, at the expense
of the Lessee, cause this Mortgage to be released. Such release shall be
effected in accordance with the provisions of the Applicable Laws of the State
of West Virginia then in effect.

            (h)   Trustee.

                  (i)   Except for gross negligence or willful misconduct, the
      Trustee shall not be liable for any act or omission or error of judgment.
      The Trustee may rely on any document believed by it in good faith to be
      genuine. All money received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as
      herein provided, be held in trust, but need not be segregated (except to
      the extent required by Applicable Law), and the Trustee shall not be
      liable for interest thereon. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable
      Law, the Lessee shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee
      against all liability and expense which the Trustee may incur in the
      performance of its duties hereunder.

                  (ii)  The Trustee may resign by an instrument in writing
      addressed to the Secured Party, or the Trustee may be removed at any time
      with or without cause by an instrument in writing in recordable form
      executed by the Secured Party. In case of the death, resignation, removal
      or disqualification of the Trustee or if for any reason the Secured Party
      shall deem it desirable to appoint a substitute or successor trustee to
      act instead of the herein named trustee or any substitute or successor
      trustee, then the Secured Party shall have the right and is hereby
      authorized and empowered to appoint a successor trustee, or a substitute
      trustee, without other formality than appointment and designation in
      writing executed by the Secured Party, which writing shall recite the
      parties to, and the book and page of record of this Mortgage (or a
      memorandum hereof) and the description of the Collateral and which
      writing, when executed and acknowledged by the Secured Party and recorded
      in the Office of the Clerk of the County Commission of Hancock County,
      West Virginia, shall be conclusive proof of the proper substitution and
      appointment of such successor trustee or trustees and notice of such
      proper substitution and appointment of all parties in interest. The
      authority hereby conferred shall extend to the appointment of other
      successor and substitute trustees successively until the Secured Amount
      has been paid in full, or until the Collateral is sold hereunder. In the
      event the Secured Amount is owned by more than one person or entity, the
      holder or holders of not less than a majority in the amount of such
      Secured Amount shall have the right and authority to make the appointment
      of a successor or substitute trustee provided for in the preceding
      sentence. Such appointment and designation by the Secured Party shall be
      full evidence of the right and authority to make the same and of all facts
      therein recited. Upon the making of any such appointment and designation,
      all of the estate and title of the Trustee in the Collateral shall vest in
      the named successor or substitute trustee and he shall thereupon succeed
      to and shall hold, possess and execute all the rights, powers, privileges,
      immunities and duties herein conferred upon the Trustee; but nevertheless,
      upon the written request of the Secured Party or of the successor or
      substitute trustee the trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver an
      instrument transferring to such successor or substitute trustee all of the
      estate and title in

                                       30
<PAGE>
      the Collateral of the trustee so ceasing to act, together with all the
      rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties herein conferred upon
      the Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver any of the
      properties and money held by said trustee hereunder to said successor or
      substitute trustee. All references herein to the Trustee shall be deemed
      to refer to the trustee (including any successor or substitute appointed
      and designated as herein provided) from time to time acting hereunder. The
      Lessee hereby ratifies and confirms any and all acts which the Trustee or
      his successor or successors, substitute or substitutes, in this trust,
      shall do lawfully by virtue hereof.

                  (iii) At any time, or from time to time, without liability
      therefor and without notice, upon written request of the Secured Party and
      presentation of this Mortgage, and without affecting the personal
      liability of any person for payment of the Secured Amount or the effect of
      this Mortgage upon the remainder of the Collateral, the Trustee may take
      such actions as the Secured Party may request and which are permitted by
      this Mortgage or by Applicable Law.

            (i)   Mortgage Remedies.

                  (i)   If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing, then upon demand of the Secured Party the Lessee shall
      forthwith surrender to the Secured Party the actual possession of the
      Collateral and if, and to the extent, permitted by Applicable Law, the
      Secured Party itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may
      enter and take possession of all the Collateral without the appointment of
      a receiver, or an application therefor, and may exclude the Lessee and its
      agents and employees wholly therefrom, and may have joint access with the
      Lessee to the books, papers and accounts of the Lessee pertaining to the
      Collateral. If the Lessee shall for any reason fail to surrender or
      deliver the Collateral or any part thereof after such demand by the
      Secured Party, the Secured Party may obtain a judgment or decree
      conferring upon the Secured Party the right to immediate possession or
      requiring the Lessee to deliver immediate possession of the Collateral to
      the Secured Party, to the entry of which judgment or decree the Lessee
      hereby specifically consents. Upon every such entering upon or taking of
      possession, the Secured Party may hold, store, use, operate, manage and
      control the Collateral and conduct the business thereof, and, from time to
      time (A) make all necessary and proper maintenance, repairs, renewals,
      replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon
      and purchase or otherwise acquire additional fixtures, personalty and
      other property; (B) insure or keep the Collateral insured; (C) manage and
      operate the Collateral and exercise all the rights and powers of the
      Lessee to the same extent as the Lessee could in its own name or otherwise
      with respect to the same; and (D) enter into any and all agreements with
      respect to the exercise by others of any of the powers herein granted the
      Secured Party, all as the Secured Party from time to time may determine to
      be in its best interest. The Secured Party may collect and receive all the
      rents, issues, profits and revenues from the Collateral, including those
      past due as well as those accruing thereafter, and, after deducting (AA)
      all expenses of taking, holding, managing and operating the Collateral
      (including compensation for the services of all persons employed for such
      purposes); (BB) the cost of all such maintenance, repairs, renewals,
      replacements, additions, betterments, improvements, purchases and
      acquisitions; (CC) the cost of such insurance; (DD) such Impositions as

                                       31
<PAGE>
      the Secured Party may at its option pay; (EE) other proper charges upon
      the Collateral or any part thereof; and (FF) the reasonable compensation,
      expenses and disbursements of the attorneys and agents of the Secured
      Party, the Secured Party shall apply the remainder of the monies and
      proceeds so received by the Secured Party in accordance with the terms of
      this Mortgage. Anything in this Section 19(i) to the contrary
      notwithstanding, the Secured Party shall not be obligated to discharge or
      perform the duties of a landlord to any tenant or incur any liability as a
      result of the exercise by the Secured Party of its rights under this
      Mortgage, and the Secured Party shall be liable to account only for the
      rents, income, issues, profits and revenues actually received by Secured
      Party. Whenever all that is due upon such interest, deposits and principal
      installments and under any of the terms, covenants, conditions and
      agreements of this Mortgage, shall have been paid and all Events of
      Default made good, the Secured Party shall surrender possession of the
      Collateral to the Lessee, its successors or assigns. The same right of
      taking possession, however, shall exist if any subsequent Event of Default
      shall occur and be continuing. In connection with any action taken by the
      Secured Party pursuant to this Section 19(i), the Secured Party shall not
      be liable for any loss sustained by the Lessee resulting from any act or
      omission of the Secured Party in administering, managing, operating or
      controlling the Collateral, including a loss arising from the ordinary
      negligence of the Secured Party, unless such loss is caused by its own
      gross negligence or willful misconduct and bad faith, nor shall the
      Secured Party be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or
      liability of the Lessee. The Lessee hereby assents to, ratifies and
      confirms any and all actions of the Secured Party with respect to the
      Collateral taken under this Section 19(i).

                  (ii)  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Secured Party,
      upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled
      as a matter of strict right without notice and without regard to the
      occupancy or value of any security for the Secured Amount secured hereby
      or the solvency of any party bound for its payment, to the appointment of
      a receiver to take possession of and to operate the Collateral and to
      collect and apply the rents, issues, profits and revenues thereof. The
      receiver shall have all of the rights and powers permitted under the laws
      of the State of West Virginia. Any money advanced by the Secured Party in
      connection with any such receivership shall be a demand obligation (which
      obligation the Lessee hereby expressly promises to pay) owing by the
      Lessee to the Secured Party and shall bear interest from the date of
      making such advance by the Secured Party until paid at the Overdue Rate.

                  (iii) If an Event of Default shall have occurred, the Trustee,
      at the written direction of the Secured Party, may foreclose by exercise
      of the power of sale herein contained, and the Secured Party shall deposit
      with the Trustee copies of this Mortgage and such receipts and evidence of
      expenditures made and secured hereby as the Trustee may require. Upon
      application of the Secured Party, it shall be lawful for and the duty of
      the Trustee, and the Lessee hereby authorizes and empowers the Trustee, in
      compliance with Applicable Law, to sell the Collateral or any part of the
      Collateral at public sale or sales to the highest bidder for cash in hand
      on the date of the sale, at the front door of the Courthouse for Hancock
      County, West Virginia, in order to pay the Secured Amount, in compliance
      with the requirements of the general statutes of the State

                                       32
<PAGE>
      of West Virginia relating to nonjudicial foreclosure sales in effect on
      the date foreclosure is commenced, after first giving notice of such sale
      by publishing such notice in a newspaper of general circulation published
      in the county wherein the Collateral is located, or if there is no such
      newspaper, in a qualified newspaper of general circulation in said county,
      once a week for two successive weeks preceding the day of the sale and
      after giving notice to Lessee and to any subordinate lienholder who has
      previously notified Secured Party of the existence of a subordinate lien
      at least twenty (20) days prior to the sale, and no other notice of such
      sale shall be required (and the Lessee hereby waives its rights, if any,
      to require the Collateral be sold as separate tracts or units in the event
      of foreclosure or any similar marshalling of assets. The parties in
      interest hereby waive the necessity of the Trustee's making oath, filing
      inventory or giving bond, as security for the execution of this trust, as
      may be required by the laws of the State of West Virginia and the Secured
      Party may bid and purchase at such sale; provided, however, if the Secured
      Party is the purchaser at such sale of the Collateral, the foreclosure
      sale price (the Secured Party's final bid) shall be applied against the
      total amount due the Secured Party. At any such public sale, the Trustee
      may execute and deliver to the purchaser a conveyance of the Collateral or
      any part of the Collateral without warranties of title. The Trustee or
      either of them or the survivor thereof (in the event there are multiple
      trustees), may act in the execution of this trust and in the event Trustee
      shall act alone, the authority and power of the Trustee so acting shall be
      as full and complete as if the powers and authority granted to the Trustee
      herein jointly had been granted to such Trustee alone. The Trustee or
      either of them are hereby authorized to act by agent or attorney in the
      execution of this trust, and it shall not be necessary for any Trustee to
      be present in person at any foreclosure sale. The notice required by
      Chapter 38, Article 1, Section 4, of the West Virginia Code (as amended),
      shall be served on the Lessee, by certified mail, return receipt
      requested, directed to the address of Lessee set forth on Lessee's
      signature page, or such other address given to the Secured Party in
      writing subsequent to the execution of this Mortgage. Any notice of a
      subordinate lien, any notice of other liens pursuant to W. Va. Code
      Section 38-1-4 or other notice may be served on Secured Party at the
      address set forth on Secured Party's signature page, or such other address
      given to the Lessee in writing subsequent to the execution of this
      Mortgage. The parties hereto agree that any sale hereunder may be
      adjourned, from time to time, without notice other than oral proclamation
      of such adjournment at the time and place of sale, or at the time and
      place of any adjourned sale.

                  (iv)  If an Event of Default shall have occurred, the Secured
      Party may, in addition to and not in abrogation of the rights covered
      under this Section 19(i), (A) exercise all rights, powers and remedies of
      the Lessee under this Mortgage and the other Operative Documents and the
      Lessee and any other party to the Operative Documents hereby is authorized
      and directed to render performance to and act upon the instructions of the
      Secured Party, (B) with respect to any personal property constituting part
      of the Collateral, exercise all rights, powers and remedies of a secured
      party under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in West Virginia, and
      (C) either with or without entry or taking possession as herein provided
      or otherwise, proceed by a suit or suits in law or in equity or by any
      other appropriate proceeding or remedy (1) to enforce payment and
      performance of the Secured Amount or the performance of any term,
      covenant, condition

                                       33
<PAGE>
      or agreement of this Mortgage or any other right and (2) to pursue any
      other remedy available to it, all as the Secured Party at its sole
      discretion shall elect.

                  (v)   In the event of a foreclosure sale of the Collateral,
      the proceeds of said sale shall be applied, first, to the expenses of such
      sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including attorney's
      and trustee's fees and commissions, then to insurance premiums, liens, and
      Impositions advanced by the Secured Party, then to the repayment of
      remaining Secured Amount in such amount and in the order set forth in this
      Mortgage, and finally the remainder, if any, shall be paid to the Lessee
      or to the person or entity lawfully entitled to same.

                  (vi)  In the event of any such foreclosure sale, Lessee shall
      be deemed a tenant holding over and shall forthwith deliver possession to
      the purchaser or purchasers at such sale or be summarily dispossessed
      according to provisions of Applicable Law.

                  (vii) The Lessee agrees to the full extent permitted by law,
      that in case of the occurrence of an Event of Default, neither the Lessee
      nor anyone claiming through or under it shall or will set up, claim or
      seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension,
      homestead, exemption or redemption laws now or hereafter in force, in
      order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this
      Mortgage, or the absolute sale of the Collateral or the final and absolute
      putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the
      purchasers thereat, and the Lessee, for itself and all who may at any time
      claim through or under it, hereby waives to the full extent that it may
      lawfully so do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to
      have the assets comprised in the security intended to be created hereby
      marshalled upon any foreclosure of the lien hereof.

                 (viii) The Lessee hereby waives and renounces to the full
      extent permitted by law all homestead and exemption rights provided for by
      the Constitution and the laws of the United States and of any state, in
      and to the Collateral as against the collection of the Secured Amount, or
      any part hereof.

                  (ix)  The Trustee, at its option, is authorized to foreclose
      this Mortgage, subject to the rights of any tenants of the Collateral, and
      the failure to make any such tenants parties to any such foreclosure
      proceedings and to foreclose their rights will not be, nor be asserted to
      be by the Lessee, a defense to any proceedings instituted by the Secured
      Party to collect the Secured Amount.

                  (x)   In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any
      right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or
      otherwise or in the event the Trustee commences advertising of the
      intended exercise of the sale under power provided hereunder, and such
      proceeding or advertisement shall have been withdrawn, discontinued or
      abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the
      Trustee or the Secured Party, then in every such case (A) the Lessee, the
      Trustee and the Secured Party shall be restored to their former positions
      and rights, (B) all rights, powers and remedies of the Secured Party and
      the Trustee shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken, (C)
      each and every Event of Default declared or occurring prior or

                                       34
<PAGE>
      subsequent to such withdrawal, discontinuance or abandonment shall and
      shall be deemed to be a continuing Event of Default and (D) neither this
      Mortgage, nor the Secured Amount, nor any other instrument concerned
      therewith, shall be or shall be deemed to have been reinstated or
      otherwise affected by such withdrawal, discontinuance or abandonment; and
      the Lessee hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of
      law now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce
      a result contrary to or in conflict with the above.

                  (xi)  No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to
      the Trustee or the Secured Party by this Mortgage is intended to be
      exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such
      right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in
      addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or
      hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.

                  (xii) If the Trustee or the Secured Party (A) grants
      forbearance or an extension of time for the payment of any sums secured
      hereby; (B) takes other or additional security for the payment of any sums
      secured hereby; (C) waives or does not exercise any right granted herein
      or in the other Operative Documents; (D) releases any part of the
      Collateral from the lien of this Mortgage or otherwise changes any of the
      terms, covenants, conditions or agreements of this Mortgage or any other
      Operative Document; (E) consents to the filing of any map, plat or replat
      affecting the Collateral; (F) consents to the granting of any easement or
      other right affecting the Collateral; or (G) makes or consents to any
      agreement subordinating the lien hereof, any such act or omission shall
      not release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability
      under this Mortgage or any other of the other Operative Documents or any
      other obligation of the Lessee or any subsequent purchaser of the
      Collateral or any part thereof, or any maker, co-signer, endorser, surety
      or guarantor; nor shall any such act or omission preclude the Secured
      Party from exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or
      intended to be granted in the event of any default then made or of any
      subsequent default; nor, except as otherwise expressly provided in an
      instrument or instruments executed by the Secured Party, shall the lien of
      this Mortgage be altered thereby. In the event of the sale or transfer by
      operation of law or otherwise of all or any part of the Collateral, the
      Secured Party, without notice, is hereby authorized and empowered to deal
      with any such vendee or transferee with reference to the Collateral or the
      Secured Amount secured hereby, or with reference to any of the terms,
      covenants, conditions or agreements hereof, as fully and to the same
      extent as it might deal with the original parties hereto and without in
      any way releasing or discharging any liabilities, obligations or
      undertakings.

                 (xiii) The Secured Party shall have power (A) to institute and
      maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent
      any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or any
      violation of this Mortgage, (B) to preserve or protect its interest in the
      Collateral and in the rents, issues, profits and revenues arising
      therefrom, and (C) to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any
      legislation or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be
      unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement of or compliance
      with such enactment, rule or order would impair the security hereunder or
      be prejudicial to the interest of the Secured Party.

<PAGE>
                  (xiv) In the case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy,
      reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other proceedings
      affecting the Lessee, its creditors or its property, the Secured Party, to
      the extent Applicable Law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim
      and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
      claims of the Secured Party allowed in such proceedings for the entire
      amount due and payable by the Lessee under this Mortgage at the date of
      the institution of such proceedings and for any additional amount which
      may become due and payable by the Lessee hereunder after such date.

                  (xv)  BY EXECUTION OF THIS INSTRUMENT, THE LESSEE EXPRESSLY,
      TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW: (1) ACKNOWLEDGES THE RIGHT OF
      THE SECURED PARTY TO ACCELERATE THE SECURED AMOUNT EVIDENCED BY THIS
      MORTGAGE; (2) WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS WHICH THE LESSEE MAY HAVE UNDER
      THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES (INCLUDING THE FIFTH AND FOURTEENTH
      AMENDMENTS THEREOF), THE VARIOUS PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTIONS FOR THE
      SEVERAL STATES, OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER APPLICABLE LAW, (A) TO NOTICE
      AND RIGHT TO JUDICIAL HEARING PRIOR TO THE EXERCISE BY THE SECURED PARTY
      OF ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY HEREIN PROVIDED TO THE SECURED PARTY, EXCEPT SUCH
      NOTICE (IF ANY) AS IS SPECIFICALLY REQUIRED TO BE PROVIDED IN THIS
      MORTGAGE; AND (B) CONCERNING THE APPLICATION, RIGHTS OR BENEFITS OF ANY
      STATUTE OF LIMITATION OR ANY MORATORIUM, REINSTATEMENT, MARSHALING,
      FORBEARANCE, APPRAISEMENT, VALUATION, STAY, EXTENSION, HOMESTEAD,
      EXEMPTION OR REDEMPTION LAWS; (3) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LESSEE HAS READ
      THIS MORTGAGE AND ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS REGARDING THE LEGAL EFFECT OF THIS
      MORTGAGE AND ITS PROVISIONS HAVE BEEN EXPLAINED FULLY TO THE LESSEE AND
      THE LESSEE HAS CONSULTED WITH COUNSEL OF THE LESSEE'S CHOICE PRIOR TO
      EXECUTING THIS MORTGAGE AND (4) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL WAIVERS OF THE
      AFORESAID RIGHTS OF THE LESSEE HAVE BEEN MADE KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND
      WILLINGLY BY THE LESSEE AS PART OF A BARGAINED FOR FINANCIAL TRANSACTION
      AND THAT THIS MORTGAGE IS VALID AND ENFORCEABLE BY THE SECURED PARTY
      AGAINST THE LESSEE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS HEREOF.

                  (xvi) The Lessee expressly acknowledges and agrees that upon
      or any time after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default
      so long as such Event of Default remains uncured, the Secured Party's
      right, title and interest in and to the assigned leases and rents shall be
      and remain absolute and inviolate in accordance with the provisions of
      this Mortgage. Moreover, without limiting, altering, affecting or
      impairing in any manner or to any extent the absolute right, title and
      interest of the Secured Party as provided herein, upon the occurrence and
      continuation of an Event of Default so long as such Event of Default
      remains uncured, the Secured Party, to the extent permitted by Applicable
      Law, shall have the complete right, power and authority hereunder, then or
      thereafter, to exercise and enforce any or all of the following rights

                                       36
<PAGE>
      and remedies, in addition to (but not in lieu of) the remedies set forth
      in the other Operative Documents:

                        (A)   Without taking possession of the Collateral, in
            the Lessee's own name, to demand, collect, receive, sue for, attach
            and levy on the rents and give proper receipts, releases and
            acquittances therefor, and after deducting all necessary and proper
            costs and expenses of operation and collection, as reasonably
            determined by the Secured Party, including without limitation
            reasonable attorneys' fees, and apply the net proceeds thereof,
            together with any funds of the Lessee deposited with the Secured
            Party, in reduction or repayment of the Secured Amount, and any such
            net proceeds actually received by the Secured Party shall be treated
            as a pro tanto reduction or repayment of the Secured Amount (it
            being specifically agreed that the mere existence of this absolute
            assignment shall not be treated as pro tanto discharge, credit,
            reduction or repayment or discharge of the Secured Amount); and

                        (B)   Without regard to the adequacy of the security,
            with or without any action or proceeding through any Person or by
            any agent, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court of competent
            jurisdiction, and irrespective of the Lessee's possession, to enter
            upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Collateral or any
            part thereof as the Secured Party deems to be prudent and reasonable
            under the circumstances; make, modify, enforce, cancel or accept
            surrender of any assigned leases now in effect or hereafter in
            effect on the Collateral or any part thereof; remove and evict any
            sublessee; increase or decrease rents; decorate, clean, repair, and
            make such improvements, alterations and additions as the Secured
            Party shall deem necessary or desirable; and otherwise do any act or
            incur any cost or expense which the Secured Party may deem
            reasonably necessary to protect the status and value of the
            Collateral as fully and to the same extent as the Lessee could do if
            the Lessee was in possession thereof; and in such event, to apply
            the rents so collected in accordance with the provisions of this
            Mortgage.

                 (xvii) Any notice of a subordinate lien, any notice of other
      liens pursuant to W. Va. Code Section 38-1-14 or other notice may be
      served on Secured Party at its address on the signature page of this
      Mortgage, and any notice under W. Va. Code Section 38-1-14 will be
      effective upon receipt by Secured Party.

                (xviii) If an Event of Default shall have occurred, in addition
      to and not in abrogation of the rights covered under this Section 19(i),
      Secured Party may, but shall not be obligated to, without demand upon
      Lessee, and without waiving or releasing Lessee from any obligation
      contained in this Mortgage, remedy such Event of Default, and Lessee
      agrees to pay upon demand all sums incurred by Secured Party in remedying
      such Event of Default together with expenses and attorneys' fees and
      interest at the Overdue Rate. All such sums shall become part of the
      Secured Amount. No such advance shall be deemed to release Lessee from any
      obligations hereunder.

SECTION 20. COVENANTS OF LESSEE.

      The Lessee covenants and agrees with the Lessor to comply with the
following covenants until the later to occur of (i) the Expiration Date or the
earlier termination of this Lease, and (ii) the date the Termination Value and
all other amounts payable under this Lease and the other Operative Documents
upon such occurrence have been paid in full:

fields as such business is now carried on and maintained.

            (b)   Constituent Documents. The Lessee shall not modify its
Constituent Documents without the prior written consent of Lessor.

            (c)   Dissolution. The Lessee shall not be permitted to be dissolved
or liquidated.

            (d)   Environmental Notices. The Lessee shall furnish to the Lessor
prompt written notice of all pending or threatened Environmental Claims and
Environmental Conditions at, on, in, under or in any way affecting any the
Property of which the Lessee has actual knowledge.

            (e)   Environmental Matters. The Lessee and its Affiliates shall
not, and shall not permit any Person under their respective control to, use,
produce, manufacture, process, treat, recycle, generate, store, dispose of,
manage at, or otherwise handle, or ship or transport to or from the Property any
Hazardous Materials except for Hazardous Materials such as cleaning solvents,
petroleum products, fuels, solid wastes, pesticides and other similar materials
used, produced, manufactured, processed, treated, recycled, generated, stored,
disposed of, managed, or otherwise handled in the ordinary course of Lessee's
business or management or maintenance of the Property in substantial compliance
with all applicable Environmental Law and in a manner which does not subject
Lessor, Lessee or their respective Affiliates, to a material risk of liability
under any Applicable Law.

            (f)   Environmental Conditions. The Lessee agrees that upon the
occurrence of an Environmental Condition or a release of any Hazardous Material
at, on or from the Property, except for any release which occurred in
substantial compliance with all Environmental Law and which does not subject
Lessor, Lessee or their respective Affiliates to a material risk of liability
under any Applicable Law, the Lessee and its Affiliates will act promptly to
determine the extent of, and to take appropriate remedial action to eliminate,
any such Environmental Condition or release, to the extent necessary under
Environmental Law.

SECTION 21. COVENANTS OF THE LESSOR. The Lessor hereby agrees that so long as
this Lease is in effect it will comply with the following covenants:

            (a)   Creation of Lessor Liens. Neither Lessor nor any Investor will
create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lessor Lien upon this Lease or any
other Operative Document or the Property or the Rent (other than as contemplated
by any of the Operative Documents); or

                                       38
<PAGE>
            (b)   Lessor Liens. Neither Lessor nor any Investor will permit to
remain any Lessor Lien upon this Lease or any other Operative Document or the
Property or the Rent (other than such Liens as are contemplated by any of the
Operative Documents).

            (c)   Further Assurances. The parties hereto acknowledge that after
the occurrence of an Event of Default, Fleet or the Bondholders may desire to
temporarily assume Lessee's obligations under this Lease. Upon the occurrence of
an Event of a Default, Lessor will give notice of such Event of Default (a
"Default Notice") to Fleet and to the Bondholders provided the Bondholders have
provided Lessor with a notice address. In the event Fleet elects not to exercise
its rights under that certain Landlord's Non-Disturbance Agreement of even date
herewith among Fleet, Lessor, Lessee and Guarantor, the Bondholders shall
thereafter have the right (which right shall be exercised by delivering notice
thereof to Lessor within thirty (30) days following the Bondholders' receipt of
the Default Notice), but not the obligation, to pay to Lessor monthly in advance
all rental required under the terms of this Lease for a period not to exceed six
(6) months commencing on the date of the Bondholders' receipt of the Default
Notice. For the period that such rent is being paid by the Bondholders, Lessor
agrees that it shall permit Lessee to remain on the Property and Lessor shall
not disturb the possession of the Property by Lessee; provided, however, that
the foregoing agreement by Lessor not to disturb the possession of the Property
by Lessee shall not preclude Lessor from otherwise pursuing any other remedy
against Lessee permitted under the terms of this Lease. Lessor agrees to execute
and deliver such agreements or documents as may be reasonably requested by the
Bondholders providing for nondisturbance by the Lessor as set forth in this
paragraph.

SECTION 22. MISCELLANEOUS.

      22.1  Applicable Law. THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO
UNDER THIS LEASE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF WEST VIRGINIA.

      22.2  Jury Trial. EACH OF LESSEE AND LESSOR WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY GOVERNMENTAL RULE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS LEASE OR UNDER ANY
AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE
FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING FROM ANY RELATIONSHIP
EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. THE PARTIES
HERETO HEREBY AGREE THAT THEY WILL NOT SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LITIGATION
WITH ANY OTHER LITIGATION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS NOT OR CANNOT BE WAIVED. THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 22.2 HAVE BEEN FULLY NEGOTIATED BY THE PARTIES HERETO
AND SHALL BE SUBJECT TO NO EXCEPTIONS. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT
IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (PROVISION
OF THIS LEASE TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL
INDUCEMENT FOR THE OTHER PARTY ENTERING INTO THIS LEASE.

                                       39
<PAGE>
      22.3  Quiet Enjoyment. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, Lessee shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the
use, operation and possession of the Property for the Lease Term free of any
claim or other action by Lessor or anyone rightfully claiming by, through or
under Lessor. Such right of quiet enjoyment is independent of, and shall not
affect the rights of Lessor (or anyone claiming by, through or under Lessor)
otherwise to initiate legal action to enforce, the obligations of Lessee under
this Lease.

      22.4  Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all notices,
consents, directions, approvals, instructions, requests and other communications
required or permitted by the terms hereof to be given to any Person shall be
given in writing and delivered by hand delivery, by certified mail (postage
pre-paid, return receipt requested) or by a nationally recognized courier
service and any such notice shall become effective upon delivery (in the case of
hand delivery), three (3) Business Days after mailing (with respect to a notice
by certified mail) and upon delivery to the recipient (with respect to a notice
delivered by a courier service) and shall be directed to the address of such
Person identified below the signature of each party to this Lease, in the case
of the Lessor and the Lessee, or as indicated in Section 11.3 to the Purchase
Agreement for other Persons. From time to time any party may designate a new
address for purposes of notice hereunder by written notice to each of the other
parties hereto in accordance with this Section 22.4.

      22.5  Counterparts. This Lease may be executed by the parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument. One counterpart has been prominently marked "Lessor's Copy" and
the other counterparts have been prominently marked "Lessee's Copy" or "Copy."
Only the counter-part marked "Lessor's Copy" shall evidence a monetary
obligation of Lessee or shall be deemed to be an original or to be chattel paper
for purposes of the UCC, and such copy shall be held by Lessor.

      22.6  Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Lease shall
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law;
but if any provision of this Lease shall be prohibited by or deemed invalid
under any Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Lease.

      22.7  Successors and Assigns. This Lease shall be binding upon the parties
hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns.

      22.8  Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided herein, none
of the provisions of this Lease are intended for the benefit of any Person
except the parties hereto, their respective successors and permitted assigns.

      22.9  No Broker, etc. Each of the parties hereto represents to the others
that it has not retained or employed any broker, finder or financial adviser to
act on its behalf in connection with this Lease or the transactions contemplated
herein or in the other Operative Documents nor has it authorized any broker,
finder or financial adviser retained or employed by any other Person

                                       40
<PAGE>
so to act. Any party who is in breach of this representation shall indemnify and
hold the other parties harmless from and against any liability arising out of
such breach of this representation.

      22.10 Headings; Table of Contents. Section headings and the table of
contents used in this Lease (including the Schedules hereto) are for convenience
of reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Lease.

      22.11 Schedules. The Schedules hereto, along with all attachments
referenced therein, are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

      22.12 No Joint Venture. Any intention to create a joint venture or
partnership relation between Lessor and Lessee is hereby expressly disclaimed.

      22.13 Amendments and Waivers. No term, covenant, agreement or condition of
this Lease may be terminated, amended or compliance therewith waived (either
generally or in a particular instance, retroactively or prospectively) except by
an instrument or instruments in writing executed by each party hereto.

      22.14 Survival. Except as expressly provided herein, the warranties and
covenants made by each party hereto shall not survive the expiration or
termination of this Lease in accordance with its terms.

      22.15 Further Assurances. Each party hereto will promptly and duly execute
and deliver such further documents and assurances for and take such further
action reasonably requested by the other party, all as may be reasonably
necessary to carry out more effectively the intent and purpose of this Lease.

      22.16 Effectiveness. This Lease has been dated as of the date first above
written for convenience only. This Lease shall be effective on the date of
execution and delivery by the Lessee and the Lessor.

      22.17 Usury. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Lease or any of the other Operative Documents, to the extent the transactions
contemplated by this Lease and the other Operative Documents are deemed to be a
financing rather than a lease, the amounts which the Lessee is obliged to pay
pursuant to this Lease and the other Operative Documents, and the amounts which
the Lessor is entitled to receive pursuant to this Lease and the other Operative
Documents shall conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if the
transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to the Participants under
Applicable Laws (including the laws of the United States of America and the
state where their respective main offices are located or any other jurisdiction
whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to the Participants notwithstanding the
other provisions of this Lease), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Lease or in any other Operative Document, it is agreed
as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest
under law applicable to the Participants that is contracted for, taken,
reserved, charged or received by the Participants under this Lease or under any
of the other aforesaid Operative Documents or other agreements or otherwise in
connection with this Lease shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum
amount allowed by such Applicable Law, and any excess shall be cancelled
automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by the Participants on
the amounts paid by the Lessee, to the extent that the

                                       41
<PAGE>
obligations with respect thereto shall have been or would thereby be paid in
full, refunded by the Participants to the Lessee, and (ii) in the event that any
amounts hereunder become due and payable prior to the regularly scheduled
maturity date (whether by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or
otherwise), or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such
consideration that constitutes interest under Applicable Law may never include
more than the maximum amount allowed by such Applicable Law, and excess
interest, if any, provided for in this Lease or otherwise shall be cancelled
automatically by the Participants as of the date of such prepayment and, if
theretofore paid, shall be credited by the Participants on the amounts payable
hereunder (or, to the extent that the amounts payable hereunder shall have been
or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by the Participants to the Lessee).
All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Participants for the use, forbearance
or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law
applicable to the Participants, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread in
equal parts throughout the full term of this Lease until payment in full so that
the rate or amount of interest on account of any amounts payable hereunder does
not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such Applicable Law.

      22.18 Memorandum of Lease. A memorandum of this Lease in the form attached
hereto as Schedule 22.18 shall be recorded at Lessee's expense in the
appropriate land records of Hancock County, West Virginia. Neither party shall
record this Lease (or any portion hereof) without the written consent of the
other party.

      22.19 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in connection with the
payment of Rent and all other amounts payable hereunder and the performance by
each of the parties of their respective obligations hereunder.

SECTION 23. SECURITY DEPOSIT.

      On the Closing Date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a sum (the "Security
Deposit") equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) as security
for the performance of all obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder. The
Security Deposit may be held by Lessor in such manner as it shall elect, and
Lessor shall be entitled to retain any interest which accrues on the Security
Deposit. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessor
may, at its option, apply all or any part of the Security Deposit to cure the
Event of Default, and within five (5) business days thereafter Lessee shall
redeposit with Lessor the amount so applied in order that Lessor will always
have the full Security Deposit on hand during the Lease Term. Upon the
termination of this Lease and provided that no Event of Default exists
hereunder, Lessor shall refund to Lessee any of the remaining balance of the
Security Deposit, subject to final adjustments for payment of any Rent required
to be paid by Lessee under this Lease and compliance by Lessee with all of its
obligations hereunder. If the Property is sold, Lessor shall transfer the
Security Deposit to the new owner; and upon such transfer, Lessor shall
thereupon be released from all liability for the Security Deposit, and Lessee
thereafter shall look solely to the new owner for the Security Deposit. The
terms of the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to every transfer of the
Security Deposit.
