            continuation of an Event of Default, 100% of such Net Disposition
            Proceeds; provided, however, that, upon the occurrence and during
            the continuation of a Revolver Payment Default, Net

                                                                              38

            Disposition Proceeds from the Disposition of any asset (other than
            the Casden Assets) are not required to be applied to prepay the
            Loans provided such amounts are used to reduce outstanding
            obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement, if any, until any
            such obligations are reduced to zero, and thereafter such Net
            Disposition Proceeds shall be used to prepay the Loans.

                  (iii) Net Refinancing Proceeds. Subject to the terms of the
            Intercreditor Agreement, no later than the fifth Business Day after
            the date of receipt by Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries of Net
            Refinancing Proceeds from any Refinancing Indebtedness, Borrowers
            shall prepay the Loans and pay accrued and unpaid interest thereon
            in an aggregate amount equal to, (x) on or after the date which is
            one year after the Closing Date, 75% of such Net Refinancing
            Proceeds and (y) with respect to any Net Refinancing Proceeds
            received from the refinancing of any loan, debt or other obligations
            secured in whole or in part by any Casden Asset after the occurrence
            and during the continuation of an Event of Default, 100% of such Net
            Refinancing Proceeds; provided, however, that, upon the occurrence
            and during the continuation of a Revolver Payment Default, Net
            Refinancing Proceeds from the refinancing of any loan, debt or other
            obligation secured in whole or in part by any asset (other than any
            Casden Asset) shall be used to first reduce outstanding obligations
            under the Revolving Credit Agreement, if any, until any such
            obligations are reduced to zero, and thereafter such Net Refinancing
            Proceeds shall be used to prepay the Loans; and

                  (iv)  Net Indebtedness Proceeds. Subject to the terms of the
            Intercreditor Agreement, no later than the fifth Business Day after
            the date of receipt by Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries of Net
            Indebtedness Proceeds from any Indebtedness incurred by the
            Borrowers or their Subsidiaries after the Closing Date, Borrowers
            shall apply an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net
            Indebtedness Proceeds to prepay the Loans and pay accrued and unpaid
            interest thereon; provided, however, that, upon the occurrence and
            during the continuation of a Revolver Payment Default, Net
            Indebtedness Proceeds from any Indebtedness incurred by Borrowers
            and their Subsidiaries (other than Casden or any of its
            Subsidiaries) shall be used to first reduce outstanding obligations
            under the Revolving Credit Agreement, if any, until any such
            obligations are reduced to zero, and thereafter such Net
            Indebtedness Proceeds shall be used to prepay the Loans.

            (d)   Application of Prepayments.

                  (i)   Unless otherwise instructed by Borrowers, any
            prepayments pursuant to Section 2.03(a), (b) or (c) made (1) on a
            day other than the last day of an Interest Period for any Loan shall
            be applied first to any Base Rate Loans then outstanding and then to
            any Offshore Rate Loans then outstanding, in the forward order of
            such Offshore Rate Loans' stated maturities and (2) on the last day
            of an Interest Period for any Offshore Rate Loan shall be applied
            first to such maturing Offshore Rate Loan, then to any Base Rate
            Loans outstanding, and then to any
<PAGE>
                                                                              39

            other Offshore Rate Loans then outstanding, in the forward order of
            such Offshore Rate Loans' stated maturities.

                  (ii)  Each payment received pursuant to this Section 2.03(d)
            shall be applied to reduce the scheduled installments of principal
            of the Loans in order of maturity.

            2.04. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. Each borrowing by Borrowers
from the Lenders hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the respective
Loan Percentages of the Lenders. Each payment in respect of principal or
interest in respect of the Loans and each payment in respect of fees payable
hereunder shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the
Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the
Lenders. Amounts prepaid on account of the Loans may not be reborrowed.

            2.05. Principal and Interest; Default Rate.

            (a)   If not sooner paid (including repayments pursuant to Section
2.03), Borrowers agree to pay the outstanding principal amount of each Loan on
the Maturity Date.

            (b)   Subject to subsection (e) below, Borrowers shall pay interest
on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan (before, during and after a Default
or an Event of Default, before and after maturity, before and after judgment,
and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief
Laws) from the date borrowed until paid in full (whether by acceleration or
otherwise) on each applicable Interest Payment Date at a rate per annum equal to
the interest rate determined in accordance with the definition of such type of
Loan, plus the Applicable Margin.

            (c)   Each Offshore Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day
during the Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the
Offshore Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin. Borrowers will
have the option of Offshore Rate Loans with terms of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months, and
Borrowers will be allowed a maximum of six (6) Offshore Rate Loans at any one
time.

            (d)   Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum
equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

            (e)   If any amount payable by any Borrower Party under any Loan
Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods),
it shall thereafter bear interest (after as well as before entry of judgment
thereon to the extent permitted by law) at a fluctuating interest rate per annum
at all times equal to the Default Rate. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due
amounts (including, without limitation, interest on past due interest) shall be
payable upon demand.

            2.06. Fees.

            Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent certain fees as and when
designated in the Fee Letter.
<PAGE>
                                                                              40

            2.07. Computation of Interest and Fees.

            Interest, fees and commissions payable pursuant hereto shall be
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except
that, with respect to Base Rate Loans on which interest is calculated on the
basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis
of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed.
Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and
shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the
Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same
day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day.

            2.08. Making Payments.

            (a)   Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments by Borrowers
or any Lender shall be made to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent's
Office not later than the Requisite Time for such type of payment. All payments
received after such Requisite Time shall be deemed received on the next
succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made in immediately available
funds in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments by Borrowers
shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff.

            (b)   Upon satisfaction of any applicable terms and conditions set
forth herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly make any amounts received in
accordance with the prior subsection available in like funds received as
follows: (i) if payable to Borrowers, by crediting the Designated Deposit
Account, and (ii) if payable to any Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender.

            (c)   Subject to the definition of "Interest Period," if any payment
to be made by any Borrower Party shall come due on a day other than a Business
Day, payment shall instead be considered due on the next succeeding Business
Day.

            (d)   Unless Borrowers or any Lender has notified Administrative
Agent prior to the date any payment to be made by it is due, that it does not
intend to remit such payment, Administrative Agent may, in its discretion,
assume that Borrowers or Lender, as the case may be, have timely remitted such
payment and may, in its discretion and in reliance thereon, make available such
payment to the Person entitled thereto. If such payment was not in fact remitted
to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:

                  (i)   if Borrowers failed to make such payment, each Lender
            shall forthwith on demand repay to Administrative Agent the amount
            of such assumed payment made available to such Lender, together with
            interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date
            such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such
            Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent at
            the Federal Funds Rate; and

                  (ii)  if any Lender failed to make such payment,
            Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding
            amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such
            corresponding amount forthwith upon
<PAGE>
                                                                              41

            Administrative Agent's demand therefor, Administrative Agent
            promptly shall notify Borrowers, and Borrowers shall pay such
            corresponding amount to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent
            also shall be entitled to recover from such Lender interest on such
            corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such
            corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent to
            Borrowers to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by
            Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal
            Funds Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender
            from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any
            rights which Administrative Agent or Borrowers may have against any
            Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

            2.09. Funding Sources.

            Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to
obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute
a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for
any Loan in any particular place or manner.

            2.10. Collateral.

            The payment and performance of the Obligations are and shall be
secured by the Pledged Collateral.

            2.11. Extension of Maturity Date.

            (a)   Not earlier than ninety (90) days prior to, nor later than
sixty (60) days prior to the Maturity Date then in effect, Borrowers may request
by Requisite Notice made to Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify
Lenders) a one-time one year extension of the Maturity Date. Such request shall
include a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer stating that (i) the
representations and warranties contained in Section 5 are true and correct on
and as of the date of such certificate and (ii) no Default or Event of Default
exists.

            (b)   If (i) the statements in such certificate are true and correct
and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding on March __, 2004
is equal or less than $93,000,000, the Maturity Date shall be extended to the
same date in the following calendar year, effective as of a date to be
determined by Administrative Agent and Borrowers (the "Extension Effective
Date"), and Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lenders thereof. On or
prior to the Extension Effective Date, Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative
Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent: (x) corporate
resolutions and incumbency certificates of Borrowers dated as of the Extension
Effective Date approving such extension, (y) new or amended Notes, if requested
by any new or affected Lender, evidencing such new or extended Commitments and
(z) an acknowledgment and consent from each Guarantor affirming the
effectiveness of the Guaranty after giving effect to the Maturity Date, as
extended hereunder.

            (c)   Only one extension of the Maturity Date may be made, and the
Maturity Date shall not, in any event, be extended beyond March __, 2005.
<PAGE>
                                                                              42

            (d)   Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit
of the Lenders, an extension fee equal to 0.30% times the aggregate principal
amount of Loans outstanding on March __, 2004. The extension fee shall be
payable on the first day of the new extension period and such extension fees are
fully earned on the date paid. The extension fee paid to each Lender is solely
for its own account and is nonrefundable.

            (e)   This section shall supercede any provisions in Section 10.01
to the contrary.

              SECTION III. TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY.

            3.01. Taxes.

            (a)   Any and all payments by Borrowers to or for the account of
Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free
and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes,
duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all
liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent
and any Lender, taxes imposed on its net income, and franchise taxes (in lieu of
net income) imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the Laws of which
Administrative Agent or such Lender is organized, maintains a Lending Office or
otherwise is engaged in a trade or business, or any political subdivision
thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as a "Tax"
or "Taxes"). If Borrowers shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from
or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent
or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section), each of the Administrative Agent and such
Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made (such increase, an "Additional Amount"), (ii) Borrowers
shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted
to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with
applicable Laws, and (iv) Borrowers shall furnish to Administrative Agent (who
shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a
receipt evidencing payment thereof.

            (b)   In addition, Borrowers agree to pay any and all present or
future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or
charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan
Document or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, any
Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

            (c)   Borrowers agree to indemnify Administrative Agent and each
Lender for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without
limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on
amounts payable under this Section) paid by Administrative Agent and such Lender
and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom
or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly
or legally asserted unless and except to the extent such Taxes or Other Taxes
were imposed solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be.
<PAGE>
                                                                              43

            (d)   Each Lender that is not a "United States person" within the
meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a "Foreign Lender") agrees that:

                  (i)   such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent,
            prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding under the
            Code (or upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein), two
            duly signed completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN ("Form
            W-8BEN") or any successor thereto (relating to such Person and
            entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax
            on all payments to be made to such Person by Borrowers pursuant to
            this Agreement) or IRS Form W-8ECI ("Form W-8ECI") or any successor
            thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Person by
            Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement) or such other evidence
            satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that such
            Person is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.
            withholding tax. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Person
            shall (A) promptly submit to the Administrative Agent such
            additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or
            such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the
            relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available
            under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or
            such evidence as is satisfactory to the Borrowers and the
            Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction
            of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be
            made to such Person by the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement and
            (B) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change in
            circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed
            exemption or reduction.

                  (ii)  such Lender shall, before or promptly after the
            occurrence of any event (including the passing of time but excluding
            any event mentioned in (i) above) requiring a change in or renewal
            of the most recent Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI previously delivered
            by such Lender, deliver to Borrowers through Administrative Agent
            two (2) accurate and complete original signed copies of Form W-8BEN
            or Form W-8ECI, as appropriate, in replacement of the forms
            previously delivered by such Lender; and

                  (iii) such Lender shall, promptly upon Borrowers' reasonable
            request to that effect, deliver to Borrowers such other forms or
            similar documentation as may be required from time to time by any
            applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation in order to establish
            such Lender's tax status for withholding purposes.

            (e)   Borrowers shall not be required to pay any Additional Amounts
in respect of United States Federal or state income tax pursuant to this Section
3.01 to any Lender or any duly appointed assignee for the account of any Lending
Office of such Lender or assignee:

                  (i)   if the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts arises
            as a result of a failure by such Lender or assignee to comply with
            its obligations under this Section 3.01 in respect of such Lending
            Office;
<PAGE>
                                                                              44

                  (ii)  if such Lender or assignee shall have delivered to
            Borrowers a Form W-8BEN in respect of such Lending Office pursuant
            to this Section 3.01, and such Lender or assignee shall not at any
            time be entitled to exemption from deduction or withholding of
            United States Federal income tax in respect of payments by Borrowers
            hereunder for any reason other than a change in United States law or
            regulations or in the official interpretation of such law or
            regulations by any governmental authority charged with the
            interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the
            force of law) after the date of delivery of such Form W-8BEN; or

                  (iii) if such Lender or assignee shall have delivered to
            Borrowers a Form W-8ECI in respect of such Lending Office pursuant
            to this Section 3.01, and such Lender or assignee shall not at any
            time be entitled to reduction, partial exemption or exemption from
            deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax in
            respect of payments by Borrowers hereunder for the account of such
            Lending Office for any reason other than a change in United States
            law or regulations or any applicable tax treaty or regulations or in
            the official interpretation of such law, treaty or regulations by
            any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or
            administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law)
            after the date of delivery of such Form W-8ECI.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, an assignee subject to U.S. withholding taxes
shall be entitled to receive Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 3.01(a) to
the same extent that such assignee's assignor was entitled to receive such
Additional Amounts.

            (f)   If, at any time, Borrowers request any Lender to deliver any
forms or other documentation pursuant to this Section 3.01, then Borrowers
shall, on demand of such Lender, through Administrative Agent reimburse such
Lender for any costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) reasonably incurred
by such Lender in the preparation or delivery of such forms or other
documentation.

            (g)   If Borrowers are required to pay Additional Amounts to
Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Section 3.01, then such
Lender shall use its reasonable best efforts (consistent with legal and
regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as
to eliminate any such additional payment by Borrowers which may thereafter
accrue if such change in the judgment of such Lender is not otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender.

            3.02. Illegality.

            If any Lender determines that any Laws have made it unlawful, or
that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender
or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Offshore Rate Loans,
or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to
take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable offshore Dollar market, or to
determine or charge interest rates based upon the Offshore Rate, then, on notice
thereof by Lender to Borrowers through Administrative Agent, any obligation of
that Lender to make Offshore Rate Loans shall be suspended until Lender notifies
Administrative Agent and Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such
determination no longer exist. Upon receipt
<PAGE>
                                                                              45

of such notice, Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to
Administrative Agent), prepay or Convert all Offshore Rate Loans of that Lender,
either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if Lender may lawfully
continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if
Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans. Each
Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will
avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such
Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

            3.03. Inability to Determine Rates.

            If, in connection with any Extension of Credit involving any
Offshore Rate Loan, Administrative Agent determines that (a) Dollar deposits are
not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore Dollar market for the
applicable amount and Interest Period of the requested Offshore Rate Loan, (b)
adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the underlying
interest rate for such Offshore Rate Loan, or (c) such underlying interest rate
does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such
Offshore Rate Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrowers and all
Lenders. Thereafter, the obligation of all Lenders to make or maintain such
Offshore Rate Loan shall be suspended until Administrative Agent revokes such
notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers may revoke any pending request
for a Borrowing of Offshore Rate Loans or, failing that, be deemed to have
converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the
amount specified therein.

            3.04. Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy.

            (a)   If any Lender determines that any Laws:

                  (i)   subject such Lender to any Tax, duty, or other charge
            with respect to any Offshore Rate Loans or its obligation to make
            Offshore Rate Loans, or change the basis on which Taxes are imposed
            on any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement in
            respect of any Offshore Rate Loans;

                  (ii)  shall impose or modify any reserve, special deposit, or
            similar requirement (other than the reserve requirement utilized in
            the determination of the Offshore Rate) relating to any extensions
            of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other
            liabilities or commitments of, such Lender (including its
            Commitment); or

                  (iii) shall impose on such Lender or on the offshore Dollar
            interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any
            of such extensions of credit or liabilities or commitments;

      and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such
      Lender of making, Converting into, Continuing, or maintaining any Offshore
      Rate Loans or to reduce any sum received or receivable by such Lender
      under this Agreement with respect to any Offshore Rate Loans, then from
      time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to
      Administrative Agent), Borrowers
<PAGE>
                                                                              46

      shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such
      Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

            (b)   If any Lender determines that any change in or the
interpretation of any Laws have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the
capital of such Lender or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) or
any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender's
obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to
capital adequacy and such Lender's desired return on capital), then from time to
time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrowers
shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender
for such reduction.

            3.05. Breakfunding Costs.

            Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent) from
time to time, Borrowers shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such
Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

            (a)   any Continuation, Conversion, payment or prepayment of any
Offshore Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for
such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration,
or otherwise); or

            (b)   any failure by any Borrower (for a reason other than the
failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, Continue or Convert
any Offshore Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by such Borrower;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from
the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such
Offshore Rate Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which
such funds were obtained. Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative
fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

            3.06. Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.

            A certificate of Administrative Agent claiming compensation under
this Section 3 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to
it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of clearly demonstrable error.
In determining such amount, Administrative Agent may use any reasonable
averaging and attribution methods. For purposes of this Section 3, a Lender
shall be deemed to have funded each Offshore Rate Loan at the Offshore Base Rate
used in determining the Offshore Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or
other borrowing in the offshore Dollar interbank market, whether or not such
Offshore Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

            3.07. Survival.

            All of Borrowers' obligations under this Section 3 shall survive
termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations.

            5.05. Litigation.

            Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.05, no action, suit, litigation,
investigation or proceeding of or before an arbitrator or Governmental Authority

            Borrowers and their Subsidiaries have filed all Federal and other
material tax returns and material reports that are required to be filed, except
with respect to the Casden Assets during the Transition Period or except where
the failure to make any such filing would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the SEC Report, (i) all tax
returns filed by Borrowers and their Subsidiaries are complete and correct in
all material respects, except with respect to the Casden Assets during the
Transition Period and where any such incompleteness or inaccuracy would not

lien" or similar document or instrument has been filed or recorded, except with
respect to any taxes not yet due or payable; (iii) there is no proposed tax
assessment against Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries which, if the
assessment were made, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect; and (iv) Borrowers and their Subsidiaries have no primary, secondary or
other liability for taxes of any kind arising with respect to any individual,
trust, corporation, partnership or other entity as to which Borrowers or any of
their Subsidiaries are directly or indirectly liable for taxes of any kind
incurred by such individual or entity either as a transferee, or pursuant to
Treasury Regulations section 1.1502-6, or pursuant to any other Law. None of
Borrowers nor any of their Affiliates is (nor has it ever been) a party to any

Board of Governors.

                  breach of the representations and warranties of this Agreement
                  and the other Loan Documents; (3) the transaction will not
                  cause Borrowers to be in breach of the covenants of this
                  Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including financial
                  covenants after the consummation thereof; and (4) Borrowers
                  provide Administrative Agent with a pro-forma Compliance
                  Certificate that demonstrates that after the consummation of
                  the proposed transaction the Borrowers will be in compliance
                  with the financial covenants of this Agreement; and

                           (v)      Borrowers may (x) consummate the Casden
                  Acquisition and (y) acquire through merger, consolidation or
                  otherwise, additional equity interests in the managing members
                  of the Real Estate Companies after the Closing Date as
                  contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Subsidiary shall merge, consolidate
         with or into, or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of
         (whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions) all or
         substantially all of its Properties (whether now

                                                                              70

         owned or hereafter acquired) to or in favor of another Subsidiary if
         such transaction would result in a violation of any covenant in this
         Agreement.

                  (b)      Amend its Organization Documents in any respect which
is, in the opinion of the Requisite Lenders, materially adverse to the interests
of the Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, under no circumstances (i) shall
the Organization Documents of Borrowers be changed so as to eliminate the
transferability of Partnership Units of AIMCO for common Stock in the REIT on a
one-to-one basis (subject to adjustment as provided in the Organization
Documents of AIMCO) or (ii) shall the Organization Documents of a Management
Entity be changed so as to eliminate or reduce any obligation to pay preferred
Stock dividends, without the prior consent of the Requisite Lenders; provided,
however, that consent shall not be required for the foregoing solely to the
extent any such changes or amendments are required in connection with the
consolidation or merger of any Management Entity into a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary
of Borrowers and such new or surviving Person provides a Guaranty to the Lenders
in accordance with the requirements of Section 6.16(c).

                  (c)      Issue any preferred Stock or preferred Partnership
Units; provided, however, the REIT or any of its Subsidiaries may issue
preferred Stock so long as (i) if such Stock has any mandatory redemption
feature or has a redemption feature which is exercisable at the option of the
holder thereof (other than a change of control put feature), then the face
amount of such Stock shall be deemed Unsecured Debt for all purposes of this
Agreement; and (ii) any distributions with respect thereto shall comply with the
provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 7.07).

                  (d)      Change the organizational structure of Borrowers or
any of their respective Subsidiaries from that which is reflected in the
Organizational Chart which is, in the reasonable opinion of the Requisite
Lenders, materially adverse to any Management Entity, without the prior written
consent of the Requisite Lenders, except for mergers and changes in the equity
structure of Subsidiaries and the formation or acquisition of Subsidiaries in
accordance with this Section 7.03; provided, however, that consent shall not be
required for the foregoing solely to the extent any such changes are required in
connection with the consolidation or merger of any Management Entity into a
Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Borrowers and such new or surviving Person provides a
Guaranty to the Lenders in accordance with the requirements of Section 6.16(c).

                  (e)      Terminate the employment of Terry S. Considine and/or
Peter K. Kompaniez as Chief Executive Officer and President of the REIT,
respectively, or remove either or both of them from such positions without the
prior written consent of Requisite Lenders (other than in the event of death or
permanent disability).

                  (f)      Other than the Casden Acquisition and the acquisition
of additional equity interests in the managing members of the Real Estate
Companies after the Closing Date as contemplated by the Merger Agreement,
acquire by purchase or otherwise all or substantially all of the business or
Property of, or Stock or other evidence of beneficial ownership of, any Person
or any division or line of business of any Person, where such business,
Property, Stock or other evidence of beneficial ownership and/or division or
line of business to be acquired has a fair

Lenders.

least equal to the fair market value thereof; (ii) any consideration received
for such Property or Properties in the form of promissory notes shall be pledged

                  Without limiting any other rights or remedies of
Administrative Agent or Lenders provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, or the
other Loan Documents, or by applicable Law, or in equity, or otherwise:

                  (a)      upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of
any Event of Default other than an Event of Default described in Section
8.01(j), Requisite Lenders may request Administrative Agent to, and
Administrative Agent thereupon shall declare all or any part of the unpaid
principal of all Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other
amounts payable under the Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable,
whereupon the same shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without
protest, presentment, notice of dishonor, demand or further notice of any kind,
all of which are expressly waived by Borrowers.

                  (b)      Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described
in Section 8.01(j):

                           (i)      all obligations of Administrative Agent or
                  Lenders to extend credit or convert or continue Loans shall
                  automatically terminate without notice to or demand upon
                  Borrowers, which are expressly waived by Borrowers; and

                           (ii)     the unpaid principal of all Loans, all
                  interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts
                  payable under the Loan Documents shall be forthwith due and
                  payable, without protest, presentment, notice of dishonor,
                  demand or further notice of any kind, all of which are
                  expressly waived by Borrowers.

                  (c)      Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lenders
and Administrative Agent, or any of them, without notice to (except as expressly
provided for in any Loan Document) or demand upon Borrowers, which are expressly
waived by Borrowers (except as to notices expressly provided for in any Loan
Document), may proceed to (but only with the consent of Supermajority Lenders)
protect, exercise and enforce their rights and remedies under the Loan Documents
against any Borrower Party and such other rights and remedies as are provided by
Law or equity.

                  (d)      Except as permitted by Section 10.05, no Lender may
exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Obligations without the
consent of Supermajority Lenders in their

                                                                              82

sole discretion. The order and manner in which Administrative Agent's and
Lenders' rights and remedies are to be exercised shall be determined by
Supermajority Lenders in their sole discretion. Regardless of how a Lender may
treat payments for the purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of
computing the Obligations hereunder, payments shall be applied first, to costs
and expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by Administrative Agent and
each Lender, second, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans
to and including the date of such application, third, to the payment of the
unpaid principal of the Loans, and fourth, to the payment of all other amounts
(including fees) then owing to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan
Documents, in each case paid pro rata to Administrative Agent and each Lender in
the same proportions that the aggregate Obligations owed to Administrative Agent
and each Lender under the Loan Documents bear to the aggregate Obligations owed
under the Loan Documents to Administrative Agent and all Lenders, without
priority or preference among Administrative Agent and Lenders. No application of
payments will cure any Event of Default, or prevent acceleration, or continued
acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the
exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of Administrative Agent
and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity.

                       SECTION IX. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

                  9.01.    Appointment and Authorization of Administrative
Agent.

                  Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 9.09)
appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on
its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document
and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated
to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with
such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision
to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan
Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities,
except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or
be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied
covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall
be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist
against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
sentence, the use of the term "agent" in this Agreement with reference to
Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied
(or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.
Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended
to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent
contracting parties.

                  9.02.    Delegation of Duties.

                  Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or
attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible
for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it

                  9.03.    Liability of Administrative Agent.

                  None of Administrative Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions
contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct),
or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of Lenders for any recital,
statement, representation or warranty made by Borrowers or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate of Borrowers, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or
in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other
document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent
under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrowers or any
other party to any Loan Document to perform their obligations hereunder or
thereunder. No Administrative Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation
to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of
any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or to inspect the Properties, books or records of any
Borrower or any of Borrowers' Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

                  9.04.    Reliance by Administrative Agent.

                  (a)      Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice,
consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone
message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person
or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel
to Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of
any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been
transferred in accordance with Section 10.4 and all actions required by such
Section in connection with such transfer shall have been taken. Administrative
Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such
advice or concurrence of the Requisite Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if
it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders
against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason
of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in
all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of
the Requisite Lenders or Supermajority Lenders or all Lenders, if required
hereunder, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant
thereto shall be binding upon all of Lenders.

                  (b)      For purposes of determining compliance with the
conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Lender that has executed this
Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be
satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by Administrative
Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or
required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or
satisfactory to such Lender.

                  9.05.    Notice of Default.

                  Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect
to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid
to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Administrative Agent
shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrowers referring to this
Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such
notice is a "notice of default". Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its
receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with
respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Requisite
Lenders in accordance with Section 8; provided, however, that unless and until
Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may
(but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such
action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.

                  9.06.    Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by
Administrative Agent.

                  Each Lender acknowledges that none of Administrative
Agent-Related Persons or the Lead Arranger has made any representation or
warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereinafter taken,
including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the
affairs of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any
representation or warranty by any Administrative Agent-Related Person or the
Lead Arranger to any Lender as to any matter, including without limitation,
whether Administrative Agent-Related Persons or the Lead Arranger, as the case
may be, have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender,
including any Lender by assignment, represents to Administrative Agent that it
has, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related
Person or the Lead Arranger and based on such documents and information as it
has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the
business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank
regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its
own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers
hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without
reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person or the Lead Arranger and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the
business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of Borrowers. Except for notices, reports and other documents
expressly herein required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent
herein, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to
provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business,
prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or
creditworthiness of Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries which may come into
the possession of any of Administrative Agent-Related Persons or the Lead
Arranger.

                  9.07.    Indemnification of Administrative Agent.

                  Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Administrative
Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers
and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so), pro rata, and hold
harmless each Administrative Agent-Related Person from and against any and all
Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall
be liable for the payment to any Administrative Agent-Related Person of any
portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Person's gross
negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in
accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to
constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.
Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative
Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses
(including Attorney Costs) incurred by Administrative Agent after the Closing
Date in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document
contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Administrative Agent
is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers. The
undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations
hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.

                  9.08.    Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity.

                  Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to,
issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity
interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial
advisory, underwriting or other business with Borrowers and their Subsidiaries
and Affiliates as though it were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without
notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such
activities, Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information
regarding Borrowers or their Affiliates (including information that may be
subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Borrower or such
Affiliate) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no
obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans,
Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement
as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
Administrative Agent, and the terms "Lender and "Lenders" shall include
Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

                  9.09.    Successor Administrative Agent.

                  Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the
Supermajority Lenders shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30)
days' notice to Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement,
the Requisite Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor
administrative agent for Lenders, and, so long as no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, such successor administrative agent shall
require the approval of Borrowers (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed). If no successor administrative agent is
appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative
Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and
<PAGE>
                                                                              86

Borrowers, a successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the
acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such
successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and
duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term "Administrative Agent"
shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative
Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be
terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and Sections 10.03 and
10.13 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken
by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor
administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the
date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent's
notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation shall
nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the
duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the
Requisite Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

                           SECTION X. MISCELLANEOUS.

                  10.01.   Amendments; Consents.

                  No amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination
or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no
approval or consent thereunder, and no consent to any departure by any Borrower
Party therefrom shall be effective unless in writing signed by Administrative
Agent and Requisite Lenders, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given;
provided, however, that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, (i)
without the approval in writing of Administrative Agent and Supermajority
Lenders, no amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent
may be effective to reduce the amount of or postpone any date fixed for any
payment of any principal prepayment or to amend the provisions of Section 7.14
or of Section 8 or to amend any provision of this Agreement that expressly
requires the consent or approval of Supermajority Lenders, and (ii) without the
approval in writing of Administrative Agent and all Lenders, no amendment,
modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent may be effective to the
extent it involves a material change to any material provision of the
Intercreditor Agreement or causes any of the following to occur:

                  (a)      To reduce the amount of any scheduled payment of
principal or the rate of interest payable on, any Loan or the amount of any fee
or other amount payable to any Lender under the Loan Documents (unless such
modification is consented to by each Lender entitled to receive such fee) or to
waive an Event of Default consisting of the failure of Borrowers to pay when due
principal, interest or any commitment fee; or

                  (b)      To postpone any date fixed for any scheduled payment
of principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Loan or any installment
of any commitment fee, to extend the term of, or increase the amount of, any
Lender's Commitment (it being understood that a waiver of an Event of Default
shall not constitute an extension or increase in the Commitment of any Lender)
or amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.04 without the consent of
each Lender directly affected thereby; or
<PAGE>
                                                                              87

                  (c)      To amend the provisions of the definition of
"Requisite Lenders," "Supermajority Lenders" or this Section 10.01; or

                  (d)      To amend any provision of this Agreement that
expressly requires the consent or approval of all Lenders; or

                  (e)      To (i) release Liens granted in favor of
Administrative Agent with respect to any material portion of the Pledged
Collateral, other than in connection with dispositions of such Pledged
Collateral permitted under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents and
provided that the proceeds of any such disposition are applied as required to be
applied under this Agreement, including pursuant to Section 2.06(c) or (ii)
release any Guarantor which is a Material Entity from its obligations under the
applicable Guaranty, provided that such Guarantor may be released by
Administrative Agent in the event (1) such Guarantor is dissolved, merged,
consolidated, liquidated, or wound-up as specifically provided in Sections 6.04
or 7.03 and after giving effect to such dissolution, merger, consolidation,
liquidation or winding-up, Borrowers remain in compliance with the other terms
and provisions of this Agreement, or (2) there is a sale of the Stock of such
Guarantor which complies with the terms of this Agreement, and after giving
effect to such sale, Borrowers remain in compliance with the terms and
provisions of this Agreement;

                  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.01 which may be
construed to the contrary, the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or
privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed by the parties thereto. Any
amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent pursuant to
this Section shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, all Lenders and
Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to
the contrary, Administrative Agent may charge, for distribution to Lenders, a
reasonable amendment fee for any amendments to this Agreement made pursuant to
this Section 10.01 if such fee is necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of
Administrative Agent, desirable to effectuate any such amendment.

                  10.02.   Transmission and Effectiveness of Notices and
Signatures.

                  (a)      Modes of Delivery. Except as otherwise provided in
any Loan Document, notices, requests, demands, directions, agreements and
documents delivered in connection with the Loan Documents (collectively,

         provided, however, that communications delivered to Administrative
         Agent pursuant to Section 2 shall not be effective until actually

                  (b)      Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders.

other digital transmission only with the consent of Administrative Agent in its
sole discretion in each instance. The effectiveness of any such signatures
accepted by Administrative Agent shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same
force and effect as manual signatures and shall be binding on all Borrower
Parties and Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent may also
require that any such signature be confirmed by a manually-signed hardcopy
thereof.

                  10.03.   Attorney Costs, Expenses and Taxes.

                  Borrowers agree (a) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent

each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any
refinancing, restructuring, reorganization (including a bankruptcy
reorganization) and enforcement or attempted enforcement, or preservation of any
rights under any Loan Documents, and any other documents prepared in connection
herewith or therewith, or in connection with any refinancing, or restructuring
of any such documents in the nature of a "workout" or of any insolvency or
bankruptcy proceeding, including, without limitation, Attorney Costs. The
foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title
insurance and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and other
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and the cost of
independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by
Administrative Agent or any Lender. Such costs and expenses shall also include

this Section shall bear interest from the second Business Day following the date
of demand for payment at the Default Rate, unless waived by

all Obligations.

                  10.04.   Binding Effect; Assignment.

                  (a)      Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and
assigns of the parties hereto; provided that none of the Borrower Parties may
assign and transfer any of their interests without the prior written consent of
the Administrative Agent and each Lender; and provided further that the rights
of each Lender to transfer, assign or grant participants in its rights and/or
obligations hereunder shall be limited as set forth below in this Section 10.4.

                  (b)      Assignments. Each Lender may assign to one or more
Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Loans and its
Notes); provided however, that:

                           (i)      each such assignment shall be to an Eligible
                  Assignee;

                           (ii)     except (A) in the case of an assignment to
                  another Lender, (B) in the case of an assignment of all of a
                  Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (C)

                  Borrowers, any such partial assignment shall be in an amount
                  at least equal to the applicable Minimum Amount or an integral
                  multiple of the applicable Minimum Amount in excess thereof
                  and, after giving effect to any partial assignment, the
                  assigning Lender shall have Loans aggregating at least
                  $1,000,000;

                           (iii)    each such assignment by a Lender shall be of
                  a constant, and not varying, percentage of all of its rights
                  and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes;

                           (iv)     the parties to such assignment shall execute
                  and deliver to the Administrative Agent and, so long as no
                  Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,

                  substantially the form of Exhibit D, together with a
                  processing fee (the "Processing Fee") from the assignor of
                  $3,500 (except that no such Processing Fee shall be payable in
                  connection with an assignment (A) by or to Lehman Commercial
                  Paper Inc. or any Affiliate thereof or (B) to (x) a Lender,
                  (y) an Affiliate of an assigning Lender or (z) a Related Fund
                  of an assigning Lender) , provided that, in the case of
                  assignments made on the same day by a Lender to more than one
                  Related Fund, only a single processing fee of $3,500 shall be
                  paid by such assigning Lender; and

                           (v)      such assignment, if not (A) to (x) a Lender,
                  (y) an Affiliate of an assigning Lender or (z) a Related Fund
                  of any Lender, or (B) by or to Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. or
                  any of its Affiliates, shall require the approval of Borrowers
                  at all times other than during the existence of a Default or
                  Event of Default and Administrative Agent (which approval of
                  Borrowers or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall
                  not be unreasonably withheld,
<PAGE>
                                                                              90

                  conditioned or delayed) and if Borrowers do not respond during
                  such ten (10) Business Days after receipt of an Assignment and
                  Acceptance, such assignment shall be deemed approved.

                  Upon execution, delivery, and acceptance of such Assignment
                  and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party
                  hereto and, to the extent of such assignment, have the
                  obligations, rights, and benefits of a Lender hereunder and
                  the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment,
                  relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations
                  under this Agreement. If the assignee is not incorporated
                  under the laws of the United States of America or a state
                  thereof, it shall deliver to the Borrowers and the
                  Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from or
                  eligibility for reduction of deduction or withholding of taxes
                  in accordance with Section 3.01.

                  By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance in
                  accordance with this Section 10.4(b), the assigning Lender
                  thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to
                  confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties
                  hereto as follows: (A) such assigning Lender warrants that it
                  is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being
                  assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and the
                  assignee warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee; (B) except
                  as set forth in clause (A) above, such assigning Lender makes
                  no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility
                  with respect to any statements, warranties or representations
                  made in or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other
                  Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished
                  pursuant hereto or thereto, or the execution, legality,
                  validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of
                  this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other
                  instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or
                  the financial condition of any Borrower Party or the
                  performance or observance by any Borrower Party of any of its
                  obligations under this Agreement, any of the other Loan
                  Documents or any other instrument or document furnished
                  pursuant hereto or thereto; (C) such assignee represents and
                  warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such
                  Assignment and Acceptance; (D) such assignee confirms that it
                  has received a copy of this Agreement, the other Loan
                  Documents and such other documents and information as it has
                  deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and
                  decision to enter into such assignment agreement; (E) such
                  assignee will independently and without reliance upon the
                  Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other
                  Lender, and based on such documents and information as it
                  shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
                  credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
                  Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (F) such assignee
                  appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such
                  action on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this
                  Agreement or any other Loan Document as are delegated to the
                  Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together
                  with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (G)
                  such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with
                  their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this
                  Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be
                  performed by it as a Lender.

                  (c)      Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a
copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to and accepted by it
and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and
the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from
time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement. Any assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall
be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in
the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or
transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the
Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the
Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and
Acceptance; thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal
amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee, and the old Notes shall be
returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked "canceled". The
Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers at any reasonable
time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

                  (d)      Acceptance. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and
Acceptance executed by the parties thereto, together with any Note subject to
such assignment and payment of the Processing Fee, the Administrative Agent
shall, if such Assignment Agreement has been completed and is in substantially
the form of Exhibit D, (i) accept such Assignment Agreement, (ii) record the
information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice
thereof to the parties thereto.

                  (e)      Participations. Each Lender may, without notice to or
consent of Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or
more Persons (each a "Participant") in all or a portion of its rights,
obligations or rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Loans); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain
solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations, (iii) the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of the right
of set-off contained in Section 10.05, (iv) the Borrowers and Administrative
Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection
with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (v) such
Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrowers
relating to their Loans and its Notes and to approve any amendment,
modification, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than
amendments, modifications, or waivers decreasing the amount of principal of or
the rate at which interest is payable on such Loans or Notes, extending any
scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on
such Loans or Notes, releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral or
releasing the Borrowers or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from its
or their respective obligations under the Loan Documents).

                  (f)      Nonrestricted Assignments. For avoidance of doubt,
the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section
concerning assignments of Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments
and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests
in Loans and Notes, including, without limitation, any pledge or
<PAGE>
                                                                              92

assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in
accordance with applicable law.

                  10.05.   Set-Off.

                  In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent
and Lenders or any assignee or participant of Lenders or any Affiliates thereof
(each, a "Proceeding Party") provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each Proceeding Party is authorized at any
time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrowers, any such notice
being waived by Borrowers to the fullest extent permitted by law, to proceed
directly, by right of set-off, banker's lien, or otherwise, against any assets
of the Borrower Parties which may be in the hands of such Proceeding Party
(including all general or special, time or demand, provisional or other deposits
and other indebtedness owing by such Proceeding Party to or for the credit or
the account of Borrowers) and apply such assets against the Obligations,
irrespective of whether such Proceeding Party shall have made any demand
therefor and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees
promptly to notify Borrowers and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and
application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

                  10.06.   Sharing of Payment.

                  Each Lender severally agrees that if it, through the exercise
of any right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim against Borrowers, or
otherwise, receives payment of the Obligations held by it that is ratably more
than any other Lender, through any means, receives in payment of the Obligations
held by that Lender, then, subject to applicable Laws: (a) Lender exercising the
right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim or otherwise receiving such
payment shall purchase, and shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased,
from the other Lenders a participation in the Obligations held by the other
Lenders and shall pay to the other Lenders a purchase price in an amount so that
the share of the Obligations held by each Lender after the exercise of the right
of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment shall be in the
same proportion that existed prior to the exercise of the right of setoff,
banker's lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment; and (b) such other
adjustments and purchases of participations shall be made from time to time as
shall be equitable to ensure that all Lenders share any payment obtained in
respect of the Obligations ratably in accordance with each Lender's share of the
Obligations immediately prior to, and without taking into account, the payment;
provided that, if all or any portion of a disproportionate payment obtained as a
result of the exercise of the right of setoff, banker's lien, counterclaim or
otherwise is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender by Borrowers or any
Person claiming through or succeeding to the rights of Borrowers, the purchase
of a participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be
restored to the extent of the recovery, but without interest. Each Lender that
purchases a participation in the Obligations pursuant to this Section shall from
and after the purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands,
directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the
portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing
Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. Borrowers expressly
consent to the foregoing arrangements and agree that any Lender holding a
participation in an Obligation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of
<PAGE>
                                                                              93

setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim with respect to the participation as fully
as if Lender were the original owner of the Obligation purchased.

                  10.07.   No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

                  (a)      No failure by any Lender or Administrative Agent to
exercise, and no delay by any Lender or Administrative Agent in exercising, any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof;
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or
privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

                  (b)      The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein or
therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies,
powers and privileges provided by Law. Any decision by Administrative Agent or
any Lender not to require payment of any interest (including Default Interest),
fee, cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document or to calculate any
amount payable by a particular method on any occasion shall in no way limit or
be deemed a waiver of Administrative Agent's or such Lender's right to require
full payment thereof, or to calculate an amount payable by another method that
is not inconsistent with this Agreement, on any other or subsequent occasion.

                  (c)      The terms and conditions of Section 9 are inserted
for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders; the same may be waived
in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, in respect of any
Extension of Credit without prejudicing Administrative Agent's or Lenders'
rights to assert them in whole or in part in respect of any other Loan.

                  10.08.   Usury.

                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan
Document, the interest and fees paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan
Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted
by applicable Law (the "Maximum Rate"). If Administrative Agent or any Lender
shall receive interest or a fee in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the
excessive interest or fee shall be applied to the principal of the Loans
outstanding or, if it exceeds the unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers. In
determining whether the interest or a fee contracted for, charged, or received
by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may,
to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is
not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude
voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate,
allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest
throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations.

                  10.09.   Counterparts.

                  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page
of this Agreement or of a Lender Addendum by facsimile transmission shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the
copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

                                                                              94

                  10.10.   Integration; Conflicts with Other Loan Documents.

                  This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents and any
letter agreements referred to herein, comprises the complete and integrated
agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. There are no
unwritten oral agreements between the parties hereto. In the event of any
conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan
Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern; provided
that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of Administrative
Agent or Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with
this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of
the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in
favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

                  10.11.   Nature of Lenders' Obligations.

                  The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and not joint
or joint and several. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document and no action taken by Administrative Agent or Lenders or any of them
pursuant hereto or thereto may, or may be deemed to, make Lenders a partnership,
an association, a joint venture or other entity, either among themselves or with
Borrowers or any Affiliate of Borrowers. Each Lender's obligation to make the
initial Loan is conditioned upon the performance by all other Lenders of their
obligations to make initial Loans. A default by any Lender will not increase the
Loan Percentage attributable to any other Lender.

                  10.12.   Survival of Representations and Warranties.

                  All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any
Loan Document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or
in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery
thereof but shall terminate on the later of (a) when the Commitments are
terminated and (b) when no Obligations remain outstanding under any Loan
Document. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon
by Administrative Agent and each Lender, notwithstanding any investigation made
by Administrative Agent or any Lender, or on their behalf. Provided, however,
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the contrary,
the agreements of Borrowers set forth in Section 3 and Subsections 10.03, 10.05,
10.13 and 10.14 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Subsections 9.03,
9.07 and 10.06 shall survive the payment of the other Obligations and the
termination of this Agreement.

                  10.13.   Indemnity by Borrowers.

                  Borrowers agree to indemnify, save and hold harmless
Administrative Agent-Related Persons and each Lender and their respective
Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees, or any holding
company thereof (collectively the "Indemnitees") from and against: (a) any and
all claims, demands, actions or causes of action, including, without limitation,
any environmental claims, actions, demands or causes of action (except a claim,
demand, action, or cause of action for Taxes of Lenders) if the claim, demand,
action or cause of action arises out of or relates to the execution, delivery,
enforcement, performance or
<PAGE>
                                                                              95

administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other such
documents, including, without limitation, any act or omission (or alleged act or
omission) of any Borrower Party, its Affiliates or any of their officers,
directors or stockholders relating to the Commitments, the use or contemplated
use of proceeds of any Loan, or the relationship of any Borrower Party and
Lenders under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the granting of any
pledge or security interest in the Casden Pledged Collateral; (b) any
administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising
out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in
subsection (a) above; and (c) any and all liabilities, losses, damages,
penalties, judgments, disbursements, costs or expenses of any kind whatsoever
(including settlement costs or Attorney Costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or
incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action or
cause of action thereto, including those liabilities caused by an Indemnitee's
own negligence (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities");
provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any loss
caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or for any loss
asserted against it by another Indemnitee. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any
damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of Information or other
materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information
transmission systems that are intercepted by such persons or for any special,
indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with the Loans.
Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law,
the Borrowers agree not to assert and to cause their Subsidiaries not to assert,
and hereby waive and agree to cause their Subsidiaries so to waive, all rights
for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims,
demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses
of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of
them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee.

                  10.14.   Nonliability of Lenders.

                  Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that:

                  (a)      It has been advised by counsel in the negotiation,
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

                  (b)      Any inspections of any Property of Borrowers made by
or through Administrative Agent or Lenders are for purposes of administration of
the Loan Documents only, and Borrowers are not entitled to rely upon the same
(whether or not such inspections are at the expense of Borrowers);

                  (c)      By accepting or approving anything required to be
observed, performed, fulfilled or given to Administrative Agent or Lenders
pursuant to the Loan Documents, neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall
be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency, legality,
effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision or
condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute
a warranty or representation to anyone with respect thereto by Administrative
Agent or Lenders;

                  (d)      The relationship between Borrowers and Administrative
Agent and Lenders is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrowers
and lenders; neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall under any
circumstance be construed to be partners or
<PAGE>
                                                                              96

joint venturers of Borrowers or their Affiliates; neither Administrative Agent
nor Lenders shall under any circumstance be deemed to be in a relationship of
confidence or trust or a fiduciary relationship with Borrowers or their
Affiliates, or to owe any fiduciary duty to Borrowers or their Affiliates;
neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders undertake or assume any responsibility
or duty to Borrowers or their Affiliates to select, review, inspect, supervise,
pass judgment upon or inform Borrowers or their Affiliates of any matter in
connection with their Property or the operations of Borrowers or their
Affiliates; Borrowers and their Affiliates shall rely entirely upon their own
judgment with respect to such matters; and any review, inspection, supervision,
exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or assumed by
Administrative Agent or Lenders in connection with such matters is solely for
the protection of Administrative Agent and Lenders and none of Borrowers nor any
other Person is entitled to rely thereon; and

                  (e)      Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not be
responsible or liable to any Person for any loss, damage, liability or claim of
any kind relating to injury or death to Persons or damage to Property caused by
the actions, inaction or negligence of Borrowers and their Affiliates and
Borrowers hereby indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless
from any such loss, damage, liability or claim.

                  10.15.   No Third Parties Benefited.

                  This Agreement is made for the purpose of defining and setting
forth certain obligations, rights and duties of Borrowers, Administrative Agent
and Lenders in connection with the Loans, and is made for the sole benefit of
Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders, and Administrative Agent's and
Lenders' successors and assigns. Except as provided in Sections 10.04 and 10.13,
no other Person shall have any rights of any nature hereunder or by reason
hereof.

                  10.16.   Severability.

                  Any provision of the Loan Documents that is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

                  10.17.   Headings.

                  Section headings in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents are included for convenience of reference only and are not part of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for any other purpose.

                  10.18.   Time of the Essence.

                  Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.

                  10.19.   GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE

GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK.

                  10.20.   WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

                  10.21.   Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Borrower
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

                  (a)      submits for itself and its Property in any legal
action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in
respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the
State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern
District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

                  (b)      consents that any such action or proceeding may be
brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter
have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that
such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to
plead or claim the same;

                  (c)      agrees that service of process in any such action or
proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified
mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such
Borrower at its address set forth in Schedule 10.02 or at such other address of
which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

                  (d)      agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to
effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit
the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

                  (e)      waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law,
any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding
referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential
damages.

                  10.22.   Borrowers' Obligations.

                  Each of the REIT, AIMCO and NHP Management represents,
warrants, covenants and agrees as follows:

                  (a)      Defenses. The obligations pursuant to the Loan
Documents shall not be affected by any of the following: (i) the bankruptcy,
disability, dissolution, incompetence, insolvency, liquidation, or
reorganization of any Borrower; (ii) the discharge, modification of the terms
of, reduction in the amount of, or stay of enforcement of any or all liens and
encumbrances or any or all obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents in any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other legal proceeding or by law,
ordinance, regulation, or rule (federal, state, or local).

                                                                              98

         (b) Rights of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent, on behalf of
the Lenders, may do the following acts or omissions from time to time without
notice to or consent of any Borrower and without receiving payment or other
value, nor shall the following acts or omissions affect, delay or impair any of
the obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents or any or all liens and
encumbrances: (i) Administrative Agent may obtain collateral or additional
collateral; (ii) Administrative Agent may substitute for any or all collateral
regardless of whether the same type or greater or lesser value; (iii)

Agent may compromise, delay enforcement, fail to enforce, release, settle or
waive any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent as to any or all

         (f) Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers.

                  (i) Each of Borrowers is accepting joint and several liability
         hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the
         financial accommodations to be provided by the Administrative Agent and
         the Lenders under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and
         indirectly, of each of Borrowers and in consideration of the
         undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several
         liability for the Obligations.

                  (ii) Each of Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby
         irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but
         also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other
         Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the
         Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising
         under this Section 10.22), it being the intention of the parties hereto
         that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of
         each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.

                  (iii) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to
         make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due
         or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms
         thereof, then in each such event the other Borrower will make such
         payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.

                  (iv) The Obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of
         this Section 10.22 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full
         recourse Obligations of each Borrower enforceable against each such
         Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective
         of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or any
         other circumstances whatsoever.

                  (v) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
         each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and
         several liability, notice of any Loans issued under or pursuant to this
         Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default,
         or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any
         action at any time taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or
         Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement
         of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent
         permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities
         of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise
         provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower hereby assents to, and
         waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the
         payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any
         of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any
         waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by the Administrative
         Agent or Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any
         Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant,
         condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences
         whatsoever by the Administrative Agent or Lenders in respect of any of
         the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in
         whole or in part, at
<PAGE>
                                                                             100

         any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the
         addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any
         Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each
         Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to
         act on the part of the Administrative Agent or Lender with respect to
         the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective
         Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or
         diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply
         fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but
         for the provisions of this Section 10.22 afford grounds for
         terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in
         part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 10.22, it being
         the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations
         hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of such Borrower under
         this Section 10.22 shall not be discharged except by performance and
         then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each
         Borrower under this Section 10.22 shall not be diminished or rendered
         unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement,
         liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any
         Borrower or the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The joint and
         several liability of the Borrower hereunder shall continue in full
         force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation
         or any other change whatsoever in the name, constitution or place of
         formation of any of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent or any
         Lender.

                  (vi) Each Borrower represents and warrants to the
         Administrative Agent and Lenders that such Borrower is currently
         informed of the financial condition of Borrowers and of all other
         circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon
         the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Borrower further
         represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and Lenders that
         such Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the
         Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby covenants that such Borrower will
         continue to keep informed of Borrowers' financial condition, the
         financial condition of other guarantors, if any, and of all other
         circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance
         of the Obligations.

                  (vii) The provisions of this Section 10.22 are made for the
         benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective
         successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to
         time against any or all Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may
         arise and without requirement on the part of the Administrative Agent,
         the Lender, or any successor or assign first to marshal any of its or
         their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any
         Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any
         Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment
         of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The
         provisions of this Section 10.22 shall remain in effect until all of
         the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully
         satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in
         respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be
         restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the
         insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise,
         the
<PAGE>
                                                                             101

         provisions of this Section 10.22 will forthwith be reinstated in
         effect, as though such payment had not been made.

                  (viii) Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce
         any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against any other
         Borrower with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or
         under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to the
         Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations
         or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the
         Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which any
         Borrower may have against the other Borrower with respect to any
         payments to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under
         any other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and
         junior in right of payment, including without limitation, as to any
         increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the
         prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and, in the event of
         any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization
         or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating
         to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or
         involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in cash before
         any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash,
         securities or other property, shall be made to the other Borrower
         therefor.

         10.23. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined
below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates'
directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel
and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure
is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and
instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested
by any regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party
to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder
or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement
of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any Eligible Assignee of
or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in,
any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or
indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such
contractual counterparty's or prospective counterparty's professional advisor)
to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of Borrowers; (g)
with the consent of Borrowers; (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii)
becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential
basis from a source other than Borrowers; or (i) to the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally
recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender's or
its Affiliates' investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with
respect to such Lender or its Affiliates. In addition, the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information
about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the
lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Extensions of Credit. For the
purposes of this Section,

                                                                             102

"Information" means all information received from Borrowers relating to
Borrowers or their business, other than any such information that is available
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to
disclosure by Borrowers; provided that, in the case of information received from
Borrowers after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified in
writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain
the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be
considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

         10.24. The Lead Arranger and the Syndication Agent. Neither the Lead
Arranger nor the Syndication Agent, in their respective capacities as such,
shall have any duties or responsibilities, and shall incur any liability, under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

         10.25. Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations.

         (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any
other Loan Document, upon request of Borrowers in connection with any
Disposition of Property permitted by the Loan Documents, the Administrative
Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender) take such
actions as shall be required to release its security interest in any Collateral
being Disposed of in such Disposition, and to release any guarantee obligations
under any Loan Document of any Person being Disposed of in such Disposition, to
the extent necessary to permit consummation of such Disposition in accordance
with the Loan Documents.

         (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any
other Loan Document, when all Obligations have been paid in full and all
Commitments have terminated or expired, upon request of Borrowers, the
Administrative Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any
Lender) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest
in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations under any Loan
Document. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to
the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such
release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed
thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Borrowers
or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver,
intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Borrowers or
any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as
though such payment had not been made.

         10.26. Delivery of Lender Addenda. Each initial Lender shall become a
party to this Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent a Lender
Addendum duly executed by such Lender, each Borrower and the Administrative
Agent.

                            FORM OF PAYMENT GUARANTY

                               (CASDEN GUARANTORS)

                  This PAYMENT GUARANTY ("GUARANTY") is made as of March 11,
2002, by the undersigned entities (each a "GUARANTOR") in favor of LEHMAN
COMMERCIAL PAPER INC. ("LCPI"), as Administrative Agent for itself and the
lenders ("LENDERS") from time to time party to the Credit Agreement (as
hereinafter defined) (in such capacity, "ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT").

                               Factual Background

                  The Lenders intend to make a $287,000,000 credit facility
available to AIMCO Properties L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("AIMCO"),
NHP Management Company, a District of Columbia corporation ("NHP MANAGEMENT")
and Apartment Investment and Management Company, a Maryland corporation (the
"REIT") (AIMCO, NHP Management and the REIT are collectively referred to as
"BORROWERS"), in accordance with the Interim Credit Agreement (the "CREDIT
AGREEMENT"), dated as of the date hereof, by and among Borrowers, LCPI (as
Administrative Agent, as Syndication Agent and as a lender), and Lehman Brothers
Inc., as Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner, and the other Lenders from time to
time party thereto. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the
meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement. As used herein, the term "FACILITY"
shall refer to the credit facility available to the Borrowers under the Credit
Agreement.

                                    Guaranty

                  1. Guaranty of Loan; Absolute Guaranty. Each Guarantor
absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guaranties to Administrative Agent
and the Lenders the full payment of the Indebtedness (as hereinafter defined),
and unconditionally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent and the Lenders the
full amount of the Indebtedness. This is a guaranty of payment, not of
collection. If Borrowers default in the payment when due of the Indebtedness or
any part of it, each Guarantor will in lawful money of the United States pay to
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on demand, all sums due and owing on the
Indebtedness, including all interest, charges, fees and other sums, costs and
expenses.

         Loan. In this Guaranty, the term "Indebtedness" is broadly defined to
mean and include all primary, secondary, direct, indirect, fixed and contingent
obligations of Borrowers to pay principal, interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under debtor relief laws at the rate or in the amount
otherwise applicable thereto whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in
any such proceeding), prepayment charges, breakage costs, late charges, loan
fees and any other fees, charges, sums, costs and expenses that may be owing at
any time under the Loan Documents, as any or all of such obligations may from
time to time be modified, amended, extended or renewed. If the amount
outstanding under the Indebtedness is determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction, that determination shall be conclusive and binding on each
Guarantor, regardless of whether such Guarantor was a party to the proceeding in
which the determination was made or not.

                                      H-1-1
<PAGE>
         Rights of Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Each Guarantor
authorizes Administrative Agent or any Lender to perform any or all of the
following acts at any time in its sole discretion, all without notice to such
Guarantor and without affecting such Guarantor's obligations under this
Guaranty:

         Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders may alter any terms of
the Indebtedness or any part of it, including renewing, compromising, extending
or accelerating, or otherwise changing the time for payment of, or increasing or
decreasing the rate of interest on, the Indebtedness or any part of it.

         Administrative Agent or any Lender may take and hold security for the
Indebtedness or this Guaranty, accept additional or substituted security for
either, and subordinate, exchange, enforce, waive, release, compromise, fail to
perfect and sell or otherwise dispose of any such security in accordance with
the terms of the Indebtedness.

         Administrative Agent or any Lender may direct the order and manner of
any sale of all or any part of any security now or later to be held for the
Indebtedness or this Guaranty, and Administrative Agent or any Lender may also
bid at any such sale.

         Administrative Agent or any Lender may apply any payments or recoveries
from Borrowers, Guarantors or any other source, and any proceeds of any
security, to Borrowers' obligations under the Loan Documents in such manner,
order and priority as Administrative Agent or such Lender may elect, whether or
not those obligations are guarantied by this Guaranty or secured at the time of
the application.

         Administrative Agent or any Lender may release Borrowers of their
liability for the Indebtedness or any part of it.

         Administrative Agent or any Lender may substitute, add or release any
one or more Guarantors, other guarantors or endorsers.

         In addition to the Indebtedness, Administrative Agent or any Lender may
extend other credit to Borrowers, and may take and hold security for the credit
so extended, all without affecting any Guarantor's liability under this
Guaranty.

         Guaranty to be Absolute. Each Guarantor expressly agrees that until the
Indebtedness is paid and performed in full and each and every term, covenant and
condition of this Guaranty is fully performed, such Guarantor shall not be
released by or because of:

         Any act or event (other than payment and performance in full of the
Indebtedness) which might otherwise discharge, reduce, limit or modify such
Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty;

         Any waiver, extension, modification, forbearance, delay or other act or
omission of Administrative Agent or any Lender, or its failure to proceed
promptly or otherwise as against Borrowers, any Guarantor or any security;

                                     H-1-2
<PAGE>
         Any action, omission or circumstance that might increase the likelihood
that such Guarantor may be called upon to perform under this Guaranty or that
might affect the rights or remedies of such Guarantor as against Borrowers;

         Any dealings occurring at any time between Borrowers and Administrative
Agent or any Lender, whether relating to the Indebtedness or otherwise; or

         Any action of Administrative Agent or any Lender described in Section 3
above.

                  Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that absent this Section 4,
Guarantor might have a defense to the enforcement of this Guaranty as a result
of one or more of the foregoing acts, omissions, agreements, waivers or matters.
Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives and surrenders any defense to its
liability under this Guaranty based upon any of the foregoing acts, omissions,
agreements, waivers or matters. It is the purpose and intent of this Guaranty
that the obligations of each Guarantor under it shall be absolute and
unconditional under any and all circumstances.

         Guarantors' Waivers. Each Guarantor waives:

         All statutes of limitations as a defense to any action or proceeding
brought against such Guarantor by Administrative Agent or any Lender, to the
fullest extent permitted by law;

         Any right it may have to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to
proceed against Borrowers, proceed against or exhaust any security held from
Borrowers, or pursue any other remedy in Administrative Agent's or any Lender's
power to pursue;

         Any defense based on any claim that such Guarantor's obligations exceed
or are more burdensome than those of Borrowers;

         Any defense based on: (i) any legal disability of Borrowers, (ii) any
release, discharge, modification, impairment or limitation of the liability of
Borrowers to Administrative Agent or any Lender from any cause, whether
consented to by Administrative Agent or any Lender or arising by operation of
law or from any bankruptcy or other voluntary or involuntary proceeding, in or
out of court, for the adjustment of debtor-creditor relationships ("Insolvency
Proceeding"), and (iii) any rejection or disaffirmance of the Indebtedness, or
any part of it, or any security held for it, in any such Insolvency Proceeding;

         Any defense based on any action taken or omitted by Administrative
Agent or any Lender in any Insolvency Proceeding involving Borrowers, including
any election to have Administrative Agent's or that Lender's claim allowed as
being secured, partially secured or unsecured, any extension of credit by Lender
to Borrowers in any Insolvency Proceeding, and the taking and holding by
Administrative Agent or any Lender of any security for any such extension of
credit;

         All presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance,
protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this
Guaranty and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional
indebtedness, and demands and notices of every kind except for any demand or
notice by Administrative Agent or any Lender to each Guarantor expressly
provided for in Section 1;

                                     H-1-3
<PAGE>
         Any defense based on or arising out of any defense that Borrowers may
have to the payment or performance of the Indebtedness or any part of it (other
than indefeasible payment in full); and

         Any defense based on or arising out of any action of Administrative
Agent or any Lender described in Sections 3 or 4 above.

         Waivers of Subrogation and Other Rights.

         During the existence of an Event of Default by Borrowers,
Administrative Agent or any Lender, without prior notice to or consent of any
Guarantor, may elect to: (i) foreclose either judicially or nonjudicially
against any real or personal property security it may hold for the Indebtedness,
(ii) accept a transfer of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, (iii)
compromise or adjust the Indebtedness or any part of it or make any other
accommodation with Borrowers or Guarantors, or (iv) exercise any other remedy
against Borrowers or any security. No such action by Administrative Agent or any
Lender shall release or limit the liability of Guarantors, who shall remain
liable under this Guaranty after the action, even if the effect of the action is
to deprive Guarantors of any subrogation rights, rights of indemnity, or other
rights to collect reimbursement from Borrowers for any sums paid to
Administrative Agent or any Lender, whether contractual or arising by operation
of law or otherwise. Each Guarantor expressly agrees that under no circumstances
shall it be deemed to have any right, title, interest or claim in or to any real
or personal property to be held by Administrative Agent or any Lender or any
third party after any foreclosure or transfer in lieu of foreclosure of any
security for the Indebtedness.

         Regardless of whether any Guarantor may have made any payments to
Lender, each Guarantor hereby waives: (i) all rights of subrogation, all rights
of indemnity, and any other rights to collect reimbursement from Borrowers for
any sums paid to Administrative Agent or any Lender, whether contractual or
arising by operation of law (including the United States Bankruptcy Code or any
successor or similar statute) or otherwise, (ii) all rights to enforce any
remedy that Lender may have against Borrowers, and (iii) all rights to
participate in any security now or later to be held by Administrative Agent or
any Lender for the Indebtedness, in each case until the full and indefeasible
payment and performance of all Indebtedness, and all obligations of the
Guarantors hereunder.

         Each Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an
election of remedies by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, even though that
election of remedies may affect such Guarantor's rights of subrogation and
reimbursement against the Borrowers by the operation of law or otherwise. In
addition, each Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that such Guarantor may
have because the Borrowers' indebtedness is secured by real property. This
means, among other things, that Administrative Agent and the Lenders may collect
from any Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property
collateral pledged by the Borrowers.

     Revival and Reinstatement. If Administrative Agent or any Lender is
required to pay, return or restore to Borrowers or any other person any amounts
previously paid on the Indebtedness because of any Insolvency Proceeding of
Borrowers, any stop notice or any other reason, the obligations of Guarantors
shall be reinstated and revived and the rights of Administrative Agent and such
Lender shall continue with regard to such amounts, all as though they had never
been paid.

                                     H-1-4
<PAGE>
         Information Regarding Borrowers. Before signing this Guaranty, each
Guarantor investigated the financial condition and business operations of
Borrowers and such other matters as such Guarantor deemed appropriate to assure
itself of Borrowers' ability to discharge their obligations under the Loan
Documents. Each Guarantor assumes full responsibility for that due diligence, as
well as for keeping informed of all matters that may affect Borrowers' ability
to pay and perform their obligations to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty to disclose to
any Guarantor any information which such party may have or receive about
Borrowers' financial condition, business operations, or any other circumstances
bearing on their ability to perform.

         Subordination. Any rights of Guarantors, whether now existing or later
arising, to receive payment on account of any indebtedness (including interest)
owed to any of them by Borrowers or any Subsidiary thereof or to receive any
payment from Borrowers or any such Subsidiary other than those payments or
distributions permitted under Sections 7.07 and 7.10 of the Credit Agreement
shall at all times be subordinate as to lien and time of payment and in all
other respects to the full and prior repayment of the Indebtedness. No Guarantor
shall be entitled to enforce or receive payment of any sums hereby subordinated
until the Indebtedness has been paid and performed in full and any such sums
received in violation of this Guaranty shall be received by such Guarantor in
trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

         Financial Information. Each Guarantor shall keep true and correct
financial books and records, using generally accepted accounting principles
which are applicable to the circumstances as of the date of determination, or
such other accounting principles as the Requisite Lenders in their reasonable
judgment may find acceptable from time to time. Each Guarantor represents,
warrants and covenants to Administrative Agent and the Lenders that all
financial information with respect to such Guarantor delivered or to be
delivered to Administrative Agent and the Lenders by Borrowers with respect to
such Guarantor under Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement is or shall be true
and correct and fairly presents or will fairly present the financial position of
such Guarantor for the applicable period. Each Guarantor shall promptly provide
Administrative Agent and the Lenders with any additional audited financial
information that such Guarantor may obtain, and such other information
concerning its affairs and properties as Administrative Agent or any Lender may
reasonably request, including, without limitation, signed copies of any tax
returns if requested by Administrative Agent or the Lenders.

         Guarantors' Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor represents
and warrants that:

         All financial statements delivered to Administrative Agent or the
Lenders were or will be prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles which are applicable to the circumstances as of the date
of determination, or such other accounting principles as may be acceptable to
the Requisite Lenders at the time of their preparation;

         There has been no material adverse change in such Guarantor's financial
condition since the dates of the statements most recently furnished to
Administrative Agent and the Lenders; and

                                     H-1-5
<PAGE>
         All representations and warranties given on behalf of or with respect
to such Guarantor contained in Section 5 of the Credit Agreement and in any
other Loan Document or certification made in connection with the Credit
Agreement are true and correct.

         Covenants of Guarantors. Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that it
shall comply with and perform all covenants given on behalf of or with respect
to such Guarantor (whether expressly or as a Subsidiary) contained in Sections 6
and 7 of the Credit Agreement and in all other Loan Documents.

         Intentionally Omitted.

         Intentionally Omitted.

         Authorization; No Violation. Each Guarantor is authorized to execute,
deliver and perform under this Guaranty, which is a valid, binding, and
enforceable obligation of such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium, or similar laws affecting creditor's rights generally. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty are not in violation of any
applicable law, regulation or ordinance, or any order or ruling of any court or
governmental agency applicable to such Guarantor. The Guaranty does not conflict
with, or constitute a breach or default under, any agreement to which such
Guarantor is a party.

         Additional and Independent Obligations. Each Guarantor's obligations
under this Guaranty are in addition to its obligations under any future
guaranties, each of which shall remain in full force and effect until it is
expressly modified or released in a writing signed by Administrative Agent and
consented to by the Lenders. Each Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty
are independent of those of Borrowers on the Indebtedness. Administrative Agent
or the Lenders may bring a separate action, or commence a separate arbitration
proceeding against each Guarantor without first proceeding against Borrowers,
any other person or any security that Administrative Agent or any Lender may
hold, and without pursuing any other remedy. None of Administrative Agent's or
any Lender's rights under this Guaranty shall be exhausted by any action by
Administrative Agent or any Lender until the Indebtedness has been paid and
performed in full in cash.

         No Waiver; Consents; Cumulative Remedies. Each waiver by Administrative
Agent or the Lenders must be in writing, and no waiver shall be construed as a
continuing waiver. No waiver shall be implied from Administrative Agent's or any
Lender's delay in exercising or failure to exercise any right or remedy against
Borrowers, any Guarantor or any security. Consent by Administrative Agent or the
Lenders to any act or omission by Borrowers or any Guarantor shall not be
construed as a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission, or as a
waiver of the requirement for Administrative Agent's or the Lenders' consent to
be obtained in any future or other instance. All remedies of Administrative
Agent and each Lender against Borrowers and any Guarantor are cumulative.

         Intentionally Omitted.

         Heirs, Successors and Assigns; Participations. The terms of this
Guaranty shall bind and benefit the heirs, legal representatives, successors and
assigns of Administrative Agent, the

                                     H-1-6
<PAGE>
Lenders and Guarantors; provided, however, that no Guarantor may assign this
Guaranty, or assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this
Guaranty, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent in each
instance. Without notice to or the consent of Guarantors, Administrative Agent
and any Lender may disclose any and all information in its possession concerning
Guarantors, this Guaranty and any security for this Guaranty to any actual or
prospective purchaser of any securities issued or to be issued by Administrative
Agent or such Lender, and to any actual or prospective purchaser or assignee of
any participation or other interest in the Indebtedness and this Guaranty.

         Notices.

         Delivery. All notices, requests and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be in writing (including, unless the context expressly otherwise
provides, telegraphic, telex, facsimile transmission or cable communication) and
mailed, telegraphed, telexed or delivered to the recipient's address specified
on the signature pages hereof, or to such other address as shall be designated
by such party in a written notice to the other party.

         Receipt. All such notices and communications shall, when transmitted by
overnight delivery, telegraphed, telecopied by facsimile, telexed or cabled, be
effective when delivered for overnight delivery or to the telegraph company,
transmitted by telecopier, confirmed by telex answerback or delivered to the
cable company, respectively, or if delivered, upon delivery.

         Reliance. Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to
rely on the authority of any person purporting to be a person authorized by
Guarantors to give such notice, and neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender
shall have any liability to any Guarantor or any other person on account of any
action taken or not taken by Administrative Agent or such Lender in reliance
upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The obligation of each Guarantor
hereunder shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by
Lender to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or
the receipt by Administrative Agent or a Lender of a confirmation which is at
variance with the terms understood by Administrative Agent or such Lender to be
contained in the telephonic or facsimile notice.

         Rules of Construction. In this Guaranty, the word "Borrowers" includes
both each named Borrower and any other person who at any time assumes or
otherwise becomes primarily liable for all or any part of the obligations of the
named Borrowers on the Indebtedness. The word "person" includes any individual,
company, trust or other legal entity of any kind. If this Guaranty is executed
by more than one person, the word "Guarantors" includes all such persons. The
word "include(s)" means "include(s), without limitation," and the word
"including" means "including, but not limited to." When the context and
construction so require, all words used in the singular shall be deemed to have
been used in the plural and vice versa. No listing of specific instances, items
or matters in any way limits the scope or generality of any language of this
Guaranty. All headings appearing in this Guaranty are for convenience only and
shall be disregarded in construing this Guaranty.

         Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by, and construed and
interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

                                     H-1-7
<PAGE>
         Costs and Expenses. If any lawsuit or arbitration is commenced which
arises out of, or which relates to this Guaranty, the Loan Documents or the
Indebtedness, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from each other
party such sums as the court or arbitrator may adjudge to be reasonable
attorneys' fees (including allocated costs for services of in-house counsel) in
the action or proceeding, in addition to costs and expenses otherwise allowed by
law. In all other situations, including any Insolvency Proceeding, each
Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to pay all of the Administrative Agent's
and each Lender's costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees (including
allocated costs for services of the Administrative Agent's and each Lender's
in-house counsel) which may be incurred in any effort to collect or enforce the
Indebtedness or any part of it or any term of this Guaranty. Without limiting
any rights of the Administrative Agent or Lenders under the Credit Agreement,
all amounts of any kind due and payable under this Guaranty (whether for
principal, interest, and other costs under the Indebtedness, or for costs, fees,
and expenses for which the Guarantors are directly responsible hereunder, or
otherwise) shall accrue interest from the time the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders make demand therefor hereunder until paid in full in cash to such
Administrative Agent or the Lenders at the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit
Agreement, plus 3%, except to the extent that any such amounts are then accruing
interest under the Indebtedness, in which case such Base Rate plus 3% interest
rate shall not be applied if the effect would be to compound the interest to
which such obligations are subject to under the Indebtedness.

         Intentionally Omitted.

         Integration; Modifications. This Guaranty (a) integrates all the terms
and conditions mentioned in or incidental to this Guaranty, (b) supersedes all
oral negotiations and prior writings with respect to its subject matter, and (c)
is intended by Guarantors, Administrative Agent and the Lenders as the final
expression of the agreement with respect to the terms and conditions set forth
in this Guaranty and as the complete and exclusive statement of the terms agreed
to by each Guarantor, Administrative Agent and the Lenders. No representation,
understanding, promise or condition shall be enforceable against any party
hereto unless it is contained in this Guaranty. This Guaranty may not be
modified except in a writing signed by both Administrative Agent (with the
consent of the Requisite Lenders) and Guarantor. No course of prior dealing,
usage of trade, parol or extrinsic evidence of any nature shall be used to
supplement, modify or vary any of the terms hereof. As between Administrative
Agent and the Lenders only, nothing contained in this Guaranty shall alter the
rights and obligations among Administrative Agent and the Lenders set forth in
the Credit Agreement.

         Miscellaneous. The illegality or unenforceability of one or more
provisions of this Guaranty shall not affect any other provision. Time is of the
essence in the performance of this Guaranty by Guarantors.

         Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally:

                  (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or
         proceeding relating to this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to
         which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment
         in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general

                                     H-1-8
<PAGE>
         jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the
         United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and
         appellate courts from any thereof;

                  (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought
         in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter
         have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or
         that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and
         agrees not to plead or claim the same;

                  (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or
         proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or
         certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage
         prepaid, to such Guarantor at its address referred to in Section 20 or
         at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been
         notified pursuant thereto;

                  (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to
         effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall
         limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

                  (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any
         right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding
         referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or
         consequential damages.

         Releases. At the request and sole expense of Borrowers, a Guarantor
shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the
capital Stock of such Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed
of in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement; provided that Borrowers
shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least ten Business Days
prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release
identifying the relevant Guarantor and the terms of the sale or other
disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses
in connection therewith, together with a certification by Borrowers stating that
such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.

         WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GUARANTOR AND, BY ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, EACH OF
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY
WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY
OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

         Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. No provision of this
Guaranty shall limit the right of any party to exercise self-help remedies such
as setoff, foreclosure against or sale of any real or personal property
collateral or security.
