hereunder, each a "Lessee" and collectively, the "Lessees"), as Lessees.

                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

         A.  Lessor will accept  title to, or acquire a leasehold  interest  in,
from one or more third parties  designated by the  Construction  Agent,  on each
Closing  Date,  certain  parcels  of  real  property  to  be  specified  by  the
Construction Agent, together with any improvements thereon.

         B. Lessor  desires to lease to each Lessee,  and each Lessee desires to
lease  from  Lessor,  certain  of such  properties  as  described  on the  Lease
Supplement(s) to which such Lessee is a party.

         C. If applicable, the Construction Agent will construct, or cause to be
constructed,  certain  improvements  on such parcels of real  property  which as

         In  consideration of the mutual  agreements  herein contained and other
good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Lessor
and Lessees hereby agree as follows:

     of such Land pursuant to the terms of the Master  Agreement,  together with
     any Building or other improvements  thereon, and simultaneously to lease to
     the related Lessee hereunder for the Lease Term,  Lessor's interest in such
     Land and in such Building or other improvements, together with any Building
     which  thereafter may be constructed  thereon  pursuant to the Construction
     Agency Agreement,  and such related Lessee hereby agrees, expressly for the
     direct  benefit of Lessor,  commencing  on such  Closing Date for the Lease
     Term, to lease from Lessor  Lessor's  interest in such Land to be delivered

     representatives  of Lessor to accept  delivery  on behalf of Lessor of that
     Leased Property  identified on the applicable Funding Request.  Each Lessee
     hereby  agrees  that  such   acceptance  of  delivery  by  such  authorized

     without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction, and each
     Lessee's  obligation  to pay all such  amounts  throughout  the Lease Term,
     including  the  Construction  Term,  is  absolute  and  unconditional.  The
     obligations  and  liabilities of each Lessee  hereunder  shall in no way be
     released,  discharged  or  otherwise  affected  for any  reason,  including
     without  limitation:  (a) any  defect  in the  condition,  merchantability,
     design,  quality or  fitness  for use of any  Leased  Property  or any part
     thereof,  or  the  failure  of any  Leased  Property  to  comply  with  all
     Applicable  Law,  including  any  inability  to  occupy  or use any  Leased
     Property  by reason of such  non-compliance;  (b) any damage  to,  removal,

     action  taken with  respect to this Lease by any trustee or receiver of any
     Lessee,  Lessor,  the  Lender,  the Agent,  any Ground  Lessor or any other
     Person,  or by any court,  in any such  proceeding;  (g) any claim that any
     Lessee has or might have against any Person,  including without limitation,
     Lessor, any vendor, manufacturer,  contractor of or for any Leased Property
     or any part  thereof,  the  Agent,  any  Ground  Lessor,  any  Governmental
     Authority,  or the Lender; (h) any failure on the part of Lessor to perform
     or comply with any of the terms of this Lease, any other Operative Document
     or of any  other  agreement;  (i) any  invalidity  or  unenforceability  or
     illegality or  disaffirmance  of this Lease against or by any Lessee or any
     provision  hereof or any of the other Operative  Documents or any provision
     of  any  thereof  whether  or  not  related  to the  Transaction;  (j)  the
     impossibility  or illegality of performance by any Lessee,  Lessor or both;
     (k) any action by any court,  administrative  agency or other  Governmental
     Authority;   (l)  any   restriction,   prevention  or   curtailment  of  or
     interference with the Construction or any use of any Leased Property or any
     part thereof;  or (m) any other occurrence  whatsoever,  whether similar or
     dissimilar to the foregoing, whether or not any Lessee shall have notice or
     knowledge  of any of the  foregoing.  Except as  specifically  set forth in
     Articles XIV or X of this Lease, this Lease shall be noncancellable by each
     Lessee  in any  circumstance  whatsoever  and each  Lessee,  to the  extent
     permitted by Applicable Law,  waives all rights now or hereafter  conferred
     by statute or otherwise to quit,  terminate or surrender this Lease,  or to
     any  diminution,  abatement  or  reduction  of Rent  payable by such Lessee
     hereunder.  Each payment of Rent made by a Lessee  hereunder shall be final
     and such Lessee shall not seek or have any right to recover all or any part
     of such  payment  from  Lessor,  the Agent,  any Lender or any party to any
     agreements related thereto for any reason  whatsoever.  Each Lessee assumes
     the sole responsibility for the condition, use, operation, maintenance, and
     management of the Leased  Properties  leased by it and Lessor shall have no
     responsibility in respect thereof and shall have no liability for damage to
     the  property  of either any Lessee or any  subtenant  of any Lessee on any
     account  or for any  reason  whatsoever,  other  than  solely  by reason of
     Lessor's willful misconduct or gross negligence.

     Section 3.6 Certain Taxes.

         Without  limiting the  generality of Section 3.5, each Lessee agrees to
     pay when due all real estate taxes,  personal  property taxes,  gross sales
     taxes,  including  any sales or lease tax imposed upon the rental  payments
     hereunder or under a sublease,  occupational  license taxes, water charges,
     sewer  charges,  assessments  of any  nature  and  all  other  governmental
     impositions   and  charges  of  every  kind  and  nature   whatsoever  (the
     "tax(es)"),  when the same  shall be due and  payable  without  penalty  or
     interest;  provided,  however,  that this Section shall not apply to any of
     the taxes  covered by the  exclusion  described  in  Section  7.4(b) of the
     Master Agreement.  It is the intention of the parties hereto that,  insofar
     as the same may lawfully be done,  Lessor shall be, except as  specifically
     provided  for  herein,  free from all  expenses  in any way  related to the
     Leased Properties and the use and occupancy thereof.  Any tax relating to a
     fiscal  period  of  any  taxing  authority  falling  partially  within  and
     partially outside the Lease Term, shall be apportioned and adjusted between
     Lessor and the related Lessee.  Each Lessee covenants to furnish Lessor and
     the Agent,  upon the Agent's written request,  within  forty-five (45) days
     after the last date when any tax must be paid by such Lessee as provided in
     this Section 3.6, official receipts of the appropriate taxing, authority or
     other proof satisfactory to Lessor, evidencing the payment thereof.

         So long as no Event of Default  has  occurred  and is  continuing,  the
     related  Lessee may defer  payment of a tax so long as the  validity or the
     amount  thereof is  contested  by such  Lessee with  diligence  and in good
     faith; provided,  however, that such Lessee shall furnish to Lessor and the
     Agent  a bond  or  other  adequate  security  in an  amount  and  on  terms
     reasonably  satisfactory  to Lessor  and the Agent and shall pay the tax in
     sufficient time to prevent delivery of a tax deed. Such contest shall be at
     the  related  Lessee's  sole cost and  expense.  Each Lessee  covenants  to
     indemnify and save harmless Lessor, which indemnification shall survive the
     termination  of this  Lease,  the Agent and the Lender  from any actual and
     reasonable costs or expenses incurred by Lessor, the Agent or the Lender as
     a result of such contest.

     Section 3.7 Utility Charges.

         Each Lessee  agrees to pay or cause to be paid as and when the same are
     due and payable all charges for gas,  water,  sewer,  electricity,  lights,
     heat, power, telephone or other communication service and all other utility
     services  used,  rendered or supplied  to, upon or in  connection  with the
     Leased Properties leased by it.

ARTICLE IV. WAIVERS

         During the Lease  Term,  Lessor's  interest  in the Leased  Properties,
     including  the  Building(s)  (whether or not  completed)  and the Land,  is
     demised  and let by Lessor "AS IS" subject to (a) the rights of any parties
     in possession  thereof,  (b) the state of the title thereto existing at the
     time Lessor acquired its interest in the Leased  Properties,  (c) any state
     of facts  which an  accurate  survey  or  physical  inspection  might  show
     (including  the survey  delivered  on the related  Closing  Date),  (d) all
     Applicable  Law, and (e) any  violations of Applicable  Law which may exist
     upon or  subsequent  to the  commencement  of the Lease  Term.  EACH LESSEE
     ACKNOWLEDGES  THAT,  ALTHOUGH  LESSOR WILL OWN AND HOLD TITLE TO THE LEASED
     PROPERTIES,   LESSOR  IS  NOT  RESPONSIBLE  FOR  THE  DESIGN,  DEVELOPMENT,
     BUDGETING AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE BUILDING(S) OR ANY  ALTERATIONS.  NEITHER
     LESSOR,  THE AGENT NOR THE  LENDER HAS MADE OR SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE
     ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY,  EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,  OR SHALL BE DEEMED TO
     HAVE ANY  LIABILITY  WHATSOEVER  AS TO THE VALUE,  MERCHANTABILITY,  TITLE,
     HABITABILITY,  CONDITION,  DESIGN,  OPERATION,  OR  FITNESS  FOR USE OF THE
     LEASED  PROPERTIES (OR ANY PART THEREOF),  OR ANY OTHER  REPRESENTATION  OR
     WARRANTY  WHATSOEVER,  EXPRESS  OR  IMPLIED,  WITH  RESPECT  TO THE  LEASED
     PROPERTIES  (OR  ANY  PART  THEREOF),  ALL  SUCH  WARRANTIES  BEING  HEREBY
     DISCLAIMED,  AND NEITHER  LESSOR,  THE AGENT NOR THE LENDER SHALL BE LIABLE
     FOR ANY  LATENT,  HIDDEN,  OR PATENT  DEFECT  THEREIN OR THE FAILURE OF ANY
     LEASED  PROPERTY,  OR ANY PART THEREOF,  TO COMPLY WITH ANY APPLICABLE LAW,
     except that Lessor hereby represents and warrants that each Leased Property
     is and shall be free of Lessor  Liens.  As between  Lessor and the Lessees,
     each related  Lessee has been  afforded  full  opportunity  to inspect each
     Leased  Property,  is satisfied with the results of its inspections of such
     Leased  Property and is entering into this Lease solely on the basis of the
     results  of its own  inspections  and all  risks  incident  to the  matters
     discussed in the two preceding  sentences,  as between Lessor, the Agent or
     the Lender on the one hand, and the Lessees,  on the other, are to be borne
     by the Lessees.  The  provisions  of this Article IV have been  negotiated,
     and,  except  to the  extent  otherwise  expressly  stated,  the  foregoing
     provisions  are  intended to be a complete  exclusion  and  negation of any
     representations or warranties by Lessor,  the Agent or the Lender,  express
     or implied, with respect to the Leased Properties,  that may arise pursuant
     to any law now or hereafter in effect, or otherwise.

ARTICLE V. LIENS; EASEMENTS; PARTIAL CONVEYANCES

         No Lessee shall directly or indirectly create,  incur,  permit to exist
     or assume,  any Lien on or with respect to any Leased  Property,  the title
     thereto,  or any interest  therein,  including any Liens which arise out of
     the possession, use, occupancy,  construction,  repair or rebuilding of any
     Leased Property or by reason of labor or materials  furnished or claimed to
     have been  furnished to a Lessee,  or any of its  contractors  or agents or
     Alterations constructed by a Lessee, except, in all cases, Permitted Liens.

         Notwithstanding  the foregoing  paragraph,  at the request of a Lessee,
     Lessor shall,  from time to time during the Lease Term and upon  reasonable
     advance  written  notice from such  Lessee,  and  receipt of the  materials
     specified in the next succeeding  sentence,  consent to and join in any (i)
     grant of easements,  licenses, rights of way and other rights in the nature
     of  easements,   including,   without  limitation,   utility  easements  to
     facilitate  Lessees'  use,  development  and  construction  of  the  Leased
     Properties,  (ii) release or termination of easements,  licenses, rights of
     way or other rights in the nature of easements which are for the benefit of
     the Land or the  Building(s) or any portion  thereof,  (iii)  dedication or
     transfer of portions of the Land,  not improved with a Building,  for road,
     highway or other public purposes,  (iv) execution of agreements for ingress
     and egress and amendments to any covenants and  restrictions  affecting the
     Land or the  Building(s)  or any  portion  thereof  and (v)  request to any
     Governmental  Authority  for  platting  or  subdivision  or  replatting  or
     resubdivision  approval with respect to the Land or any portion  thereof or
     any parcel of land of which the Land or any portion thereof forms a part or
     a request for  rezoning or any variance  from zoning or other  governmental
     requirements. Lessor's obligations pursuant to the preceding sentence shall
     be subject to the requirements that:

         (a) any  such  action  shall be at the sole  cost  and  expense  of the
             requesting  Lessee  and  such  Lessee  shall  pay  all  actual  and
             reasonable  out-of-pocket costs of Lessor, the Agent and the Lender
             in  connection  therewith  (including,   without  limitation,   the
             reasonable  fees of  attorneys,  architects,  engineers,  planners,
             appraisers and other  professionals  reasonably retained by Lessor,
             the Agent or the Lender in connection with any such action),

         (b) the  requesting  Lessee shall have  delivered to Lessor and Agent a
             certificate of a Responsible Officer of such Lessee stating that

            o     such  action will not cause any Leased  Property,  the Land or
                  any  Building or any portion  thereof to fail to comply in any
                  material  respect  with the  provisions  of this  Lease or any
                  other  Operative  Documents,  or in any material  respect with
                  Applicable Law; and

            o     such action will not  materially  reduce the Fair Market Sales
                  Value, utility or useful life of any Leased Property, the Land
                  or any Building nor Lessor's interest therein; and

         (c) in the case of any release or conveyance,  if Lessor,  the Agent or
             the Lender so reasonably requests, the requesting Lessee will cause
             to be issued  and  delivered  to Lessor  and the Agent by the Title
             Insurance  Company an endorsement  to the Title Policy  pursuant to
             which the Title Insurance Company agrees that its liability for the
             payment of any loss or damage under the terms and provisions of the
             Title  Policy  will not be  affected  by  reason of the fact that a
             portion of the real property referred to in Schedule A of the Title
             Policy has been released or conveyed by Lessor.

ARTICLE VI. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR; ALTERATIONS, MODIFICATIONS AND ADDITIONS

     Section 6.1 Maintenance and Repair;

         Compliance  With Law.  Each Lessee,  at its own  expense,  shall at all
times  (a)  maintain  each  Leased  Property  leased  by it in good  repair  and
condition  (subject to  ordinary  wear and tear),  in  accordance  with  prudent
industry  standards  and,  in any  event,  in no less a manner as other  similar
property  owned  or  leased  by such  Lessee  or its  Affiliates,  (b)  make all
Alterations in accordance  with, and maintain  (whether or not such  maintenance
requires structural modifications or Alterations) and operate and otherwise keep
each Leased Property in compliance in all material respects with, all Applicable
Laws and insurance requirements, and (c) make all Material repairs, replacements
and renewals of each Leased  Property or any part thereof  which may be required
to keep such Leased Property in the condition  required by the preceding clauses
(a) and (b).  Each Lessee shall perform the  foregoing  maintenance  obligations
regardless of whether any Leased Property is occupied or unoccupied. Each Lessee
waives  any  right  that it may now have or  hereafter  acquire  to (i)  require
Lessor, the Agent or the Lender to maintain,  repair,  replace, alter, remove or
rebuild  all or any part of any  Leased  Property  or (ii) make  repairs  at the
expense of Lessor,  the Agent or the Lender  pursuant to any  Applicable  Law or
other agreements or otherwise. NEITHER LESSOR, THE AGENT NOR THE LENDER SHALL BE
LIABLE  TO  ANY  LESSEE  OR  TO  ANY  CONTRACTORS,   SUBCONTRACTORS,   LABORERS,
MATERIALMEN, SUPPLIERS OR VENDORS FOR SERVICES PERFORMED OR MATERIAL PROVIDED ON
OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LEASED  PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF.  Neither Lessor,
the Agent nor the Lender shall be required to maintain,  alter, repair,  rebuild
or replace any Leased Property in any way.

     Section 6.2 Alterations.

         Each Lessee may,  without the consent of Lessor,  at such  Lessee's own
cost and expense,  make Alterations which do not materially  diminish the value,
utility or useful life of any Leased Property.

     Section 6.3 Title to Alterations.

         Title to all  Alterations  shall  without  further  act vest in  Lessor
(subject to each Lessee's right to remove trade fixtures,  personal property and
equipment  which do not constitute  Alterations and which were not acquired with
funds advanced by Lessor or the Lender) and shall be deemed to constitute a part
of the Leased Properties and be subject to this Lease.

ARTICLE VII.USE

         Each  Lessee  may use each  Leased  Property  leased  by it or any part
thereof for any lawful  purpose,  and in a manner  consistent with the standards
applicable  to properties of a similar  nature in the  geographic  area in which
such  Leased  Property is located,  provided  that such use does not  materially
adversely affect the Fair Market Sales Value, utility,  remaining useful life or
residual  value of such  Leased  Property,  and does not  materially  violate or
conflict  with,  or  constitute  or  result in a  material  default  under,  any
Applicable  Law or any insurance  policy  required  hereunder.  In the event any
Lessee's use substantially  changes the character of any Building in a manner or
to an extent  that,  in Lessor's or the Agent's  reasonable  opinion,  adversely
affects the Fair Market Sales Value and/or marketability of such Building,  such
Lessee shall,  upon the  termination  or  expiration of this Lease,  at Lessor's
request, restore such Leased Property to its general character at the Completion
Date  (ordinary  wear and tear  excepted).  No Lessee shall commit or permit any
waste of any Leased Property or any material part thereof.

ARTICLE VII. INSURANCE

         (a) At any time during which any part of any Building or any Alteration
             is under  construction  and as to any part of any  Building  or any
             Alteration  under  construction  (other than,  with respect to each
             Construction Land Interest, during the Construction Term therefor),
             the related Lessee shall  maintain,  or cause to be maintained,  at
             its sole cost and  expense,  as a part of its  blanket  policies or
             otherwise,  "all  risks"  non-reporting  completed  value  form  of
             builder's risk insurance.

         (b) During  the  Lease  Term  (other   than,   with   respect  to  each
             Construction Land Interest, during the Construction Term therefor),
             each Lessee shall maintain, at its sole cost and expense, as a part
             of its blanket  policies or  otherwise,  insurance  against loss or
             damage  to  any  Building  by  fire  and  other  risks,   including
             comprehensive  boiler  and  machinery  coverage,  on  terms  and in
             amounts no less  favorable  than  insurance  covering other similar
             properties  owned or leased by a Lessee and that are in  accordance
             with  normal  industry  practice,  but in no  event  less  than the
             replacement cost of such Building from time to time.

         (c) During the Lease Term, each Lessee shall maintain, at its sole cost
             and expense, commercial general liability insurance with respect to
             the Leased Properties as is ordinarily  procured by Persons who own
             or operate  similar  properties in the same  geographic  area. Such
             insurance  shall  be on  terms  and in  amounts  that  are no  less
             favorable than  insurance  maintained by a Lessee or its Affiliates
             with respect to similar  properties that it owns or leases and that
             are in accordance  with normal industry  practice,  but in no event
             less than $2,000,000 per occurrence.  Such insurance policies shall
             also  provide  that each  Lessee's  insurance  shall be  considered
             primary  insurance.  Nothing in this  Article  VIII shall  prohibit
             Lessor,  the Agent or the Lender  from  carrying at its own expense
             other  insurance  on or  with  respect  to the  Leased  Properties,
             provided  that any  insurance  carried by Lessor,  the Agent or the
             Lender  shall not prevent any Lessee from  carrying  the  insurance
             required hereby.

         (d) Each policy of insurance maintained by a Lessee pursuant to clauses
             (a) and (b) of this Article VIII shall  provide that all  insurance
             proceeds in respect of any loss or occurrence  shall be adjusted by
             such  Lessee,  except  (a)  that  with  respect  to any  loss,  the
             estimated  cost of restoration of which is in excess of the greater
             of  $5,000,000  and 50% of the Funded  Amounts  with respect to the
             related Leased Property, the adjustment thereof shall be subject to
             the prior written  approval of the Agent (or of Lessor if the Loans
             have been fully paid) and the insurance  proceeds therefor shall be
             paid to the Agent (or to Lessor if the Loans have been fully  paid)
             for application in accordance with this Lease,  and (b) if, and for
             so long as an Event of Default exists, all losses shall be adjusted
             solely by, and all insurance  proceeds shall be paid solely to, the
             Agent (or Lessor if the Loans have been fully paid) for application
             pursuant to this Lease.

         (e) On the  Closing  Date  for  each  Leased  Property  that is a Major
             Property,  on the Completion  Date for a Major Property and on each
             anniversary  of the Initial  Closing Date each Lessee shall furnish
             Lessor with certificates  showing the insurance required under this
             Article  VIII to be in effect and  naming  Lessor,  the Agent,  the
             Liquidity  Banks  and  the  Lender  as  additional  insureds.  Such
             certificates  shall  include a  provision  for  thirty  (30)  days'
             advance  written  notice by the  insurer to Lessor and the Agent in
             the event of  cancellation  or  expiration or nonpayment of premium
             with  respect  to such  insurance,  and shall  include a  customary
             breach of warranty clause.  2. Each policy of insurance  maintained
             by a Lessee  pursuant  to this  Article  VIII shall (1) contain the
             waiver of any right of subrogation of the insurer  against  Lessor,
             the Agent and the  Lender  and (2)  provide  that in respect of the
             interests of Lessor, the Agent and the Lender,  such policies shall
             not   be   invalidated   by  any   fraud,   action,   inaction   or
             misrepresentation  of any  Lessee  or any  other  Person  acting on
             behalf of any Lessee.

         (f) All insurance policies carried in accordance with this Article VIII
             shall be maintained  with insurers  rated at least A by A.M. Best &
             Company,  and in all cases the insurer shall be qualified to insure
             risks in the State where each Leased Property is located.

ARTICLE IX. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASING

         No Lessee  may assign any of its  right,  title or  interest  in, to or
under this Lease, except as set forth in the following sentence. Each Lessee may
(i) assign this Lease as it relates to all or any portion of any Leased Property
to any  Subsidiary  of  Dollar  so long as  Dollar's  guaranty  pursuant  to the
Guaranty  Agreement  continues in full force and effect and (ii) sublease all or
any portion of any Leased  Property,  provided that (a) all  obligations of such
Lessee shall  continue in full effect as obligations of a principal and not of a
guarantor or surety, as though no sublease had been made; (b) such assignment or
sublease  shall be expressly  subject and  subordinate  to this Lease,  the Loan
Agreement and the other  Operative  Documents;  and (c) each such sublease shall
terminate on or before the Lease  Termination  Date.  Each Lessee shall give the
Agent and Lessor prompt written notice of any such assignment or sublease.

         Except  pursuant  to an  Operative  Document,  this Lease  shall not be
mortgaged or pledged by any Lessee,  nor shall any Lessee mortgage or pledge any
interest in any Leased  Property or any portion  thereof.  Any such  mortgage or
pledge shall be void.

ARTICLE X. LOSS, DESTRUCTION, CONDEMNATION OR DAMAGE

     Section 10.1 Event of Loss.

         Any event (i) which would  otherwise  constitute a Casualty  during the
Base Term,  and (ii) which,  in the good-faith  judgment of the related  Lessee,
renders repair and restoration of a Leased  Property  impossible or impractical,
or requires repairs to a Leased Property that would cost in excess of 50% of the
original cost of such Leased Property, and (iii) as to which such Lessee, within
sixty  (60) days  after the  occurrence  of such  event,  delivers  to Lessor an
Officer's Certificate notifying Lessor of such event and of such judgment, shall
constitute an "Event of Loss". In the case of any other event which  constitutes
a Casualty,  the related Lessee shall restore such Leased  Property  pursuant to
Section 10.3. If an Event of Loss other than an Event of Taking shall occur, the
related Lessee shall pay to Lessor on the next Payment Date  following  delivery
of the Officer's  Certificate  pursuant to clause (iii) above an amount equal to
the  related  Leased  Property  Balance.  Upon  Lessor's  receipt of such Leased
Property  Balance on such date,  Lessor  shall cause  Lessor's  interest in such
Leased  Property to be conveyed to the  related  Lessee in  accordance  with and
subject to the  provisions  of Section  14.5  hereof;  upon  completion  of such
purchase, but not prior thereto, this Lease with respect to such Leased Property
and all  obligations  hereunder  with  respect  to such  Leased  Property  shall
terminate,  except with respect to obligations and liabilities hereunder, actual
or  contingent,  that have arisen or relate to events  occurring  on or prior to
such  date of  purchase,  or  which  are  expressly  stated  herein  to  survive
termination of this Lease.

         Upon the  consummation of the purchase of any Leased Property  pursuant
to this  Section  10.1,  any  proceeds  derived  from  insurance  required to be
maintained by the related Lessee  pursuant to this Lease for any Leased Property
remaining  after  payment  of such  purchase  price  shall be paid  over to,  or
retained  by, such Lessee or as it may direct,  and Lessor  shall assign to such
Lessee,  without  warranty,  all of  Lessor's  rights  to and  interest  in such
insurance required to be maintained by such Lessee pursuant to this Lease.

     Section 10.2 Event of Taking.

         Any  event  (i)  which   constitutes  a  Condemnation  of  all  of,  or
substantially  all of, a Leased  Property,  or (ii) (A)  which  would  otherwise
constitute a Condemnation,  (B) which, in the good-faith judgment of the related
Lessee,  renders  restoration and rebuilding of a Leased Property  impossible or
impractical,  or requires repairs to a Leased Property that would cost in excess
of 50% of the original  cost of such Leased  Property,  and (C) as to which such
Lessee,  within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such event,  delivers to
Lessor an  Officer's  Certificate  notifying  Lessor  of such  event and of such
judgment,  shall constitute an "Event of Taking". In the case of any other event
which  constitutes a Condemnation,  the related Lessee shall restore and rebuild
such Leased  Property  pursuant  to Section  10.4.  If an Event of Taking  shall
occur,  the  related  Lessee  shall pay to Lessor (1) on the next  Payment  Date
following  the  occurrence  of such Event of Taking,  in the case of an Event of
Taking  described in clause (i) above,  or (2) the next  Payment Date  following
delivery of the Officer's Certificate pursuant to clause (ii) above, in the case
of an Event of Taking  described  in clause (ii) above,  an amount  equal to the
related Leased Property  Balance.  Upon Lessor's receipt of such Leased Property
Balance on such date,  Lessor  shall  cause  Lessor's  interest  in such  Leased
Property to be conveyed to the related Lessee in accordance  with and subject to
the provisions of Section 14.5 hereof  (provided that such  conveyance  shall be
subject to all rights of the  condemning  authority);  upon  completion  of such
purchase, but not prior thereto, this Lease with respect to such Leased Property
and all  obligations  hereunder  with  respect  to such  Leased  Property  shall
terminate,  except with respect to obligations and liabilities hereunder, actual
or  contingent,  that have arisen or relate to events  occurring  on or prior to
such  date of  purchase,  or  which  are  expressly  stated  herein  to  survive
termination of this Lease.

         Upon the consummation of the purchase of such Leased Property  pursuant
to this  Section  10.2,  all Awards  received  by Lessor,  after  deducting  any
reasonable  out-of-pocket  costs  incurred by Lessor in collecting  such Awards,
received or payable on account of an Event of Taking with respect to such Leased
Property  during the related  Lease Term shall be  promptly  paid to the related
Lessee,  and all rights of Lessor in Awards not then received  shall be assigned
to Lessee by Lessor.

     Section 10.3 Casualty.

         If a Casualty  shall occur  which is not an Event of Loss,  the related
Lessee shall rebuild and restore the affected Leased Property, will complete the
same prior to the Lease Termination Date, and will cause the condition set forth
in Section  3.5(c) of the Master  Agreement to be fulfilled with respect to such
restoration and rebuilding prior to the Lease  Termination  Date,  regardless of
whether insurance  proceeds received as a result of such Casualty are sufficient
for such purpose.

     Section 10.4 Condemnation.

         If a  Condemnation  shall  occur  which is not an Event of Taking,  the
related  Lessee shall  rebuild and restore the affected  Leased  Property,  will
complete  the same  prior to the  Lease  Termination  Date,  and will  cause the
condition  set forth in Section  3.5(c) of the Master  Agreement to be fulfilled
with respect to such restoration and rebuilding  prior to the Lease  Termination
Date.

     Section 10.5 Verification of Restoration and Rebuilding.

         In the  event of  Casualty  or  Condemnation,  to  verify  the  related
Lessee's  compliance  with the foregoing  Section 10.3 or 10.4, as  appropriate,
Lessor,  the Agent, the Lender and their respective  authorized  representatives
may, upon five (5) Business Days' notice to such Lessee, make inspections of the
affected  Leased  Property  with  respect to (i) the extent of the  Casualty  or
Condemnation and (ii) the restoration and rebuilding of the related Building and
the Land.  All actual and  reasonable  out-of-pocket  costs of such  inspections
incurred by Lessor,  the Agent or the Lender will be paid by the related  Lessee
promptly after written request. No such inspection shall unreasonably  interfere
with the related Lessee's  operations or the operations of any other occupant of
such Leased Property. None of the inspecting parties shall have any duty to make
any such  inspection or inquiry and none of the  inspecting  parties shall incur
any  liability  or  obligation  by  reason  of  making  or not  making  any such
inspection or inquiry.

     Section 10.6 Application  of Payments.

         All proceeds (except for payments under insurance  policies  maintained
other than  pursuant  to Article  VIII of this  Lease)  received  at any time by
Lessor, any Lessee or the Agent from any Governmental  Authority or other Person
with respect to any  Condemnation or Casualty to any Leased Property or any part
thereof  or with  respect  to an Event of Loss or an Event of  Taking,  plus the
amount  of any  payment  that  would  have  been due from an  insurer  but for a
Lessee's  self-insurance or deductibles ("Loss Proceeds"),  shall (except to the
extent Section 10.9 applies) be applied as follows:

          (a)     In the event the related Lessee purchases such Leased Property
                  pursuant to Section 10.1 or Section  10.2,  such Loss Proceeds
                  shall be applied as set forth in Section 10.1 or Section 10.2,
                  as the case may be;

          (b)     In the  event  of a  Casualty  at such  time  when no Event of
                  Default has occurred and is continuing  and the related Lessee
                  is  obligated  to repair  and  rebuild  such  Leased  Property
                  pursuant to Section  10.3,  such Lessee may, in good faith and
                  subsequent to the date of such Casualty, certify to Lessor and
                  to the  applicable  insurer  that  no  Event  of  Default  has
                  occurred  and is  continuing,  in which  event the  applicable
                  insurer shall pay the Loss Proceeds to such Lessee, unless the
                  estimated   cost  of   restoration   exceeds  the  greater  of
                  $5,000,000  and  50% of  the  original  cost  of  such  Leased
                  Property, in which case the Loss Proceeds shall be paid to the
                  Agent (or  Lessor if the  Loans  have been paid in full),  and
                  shall  be  promptly   released  to  the  related  Lessee  upon
                  certification by such Lessee to Lessor and the Agent that such
                  Lessee  has  incurred  costs  in the  amount  requested  to be
                  released  for  the  repair  and   rebuilding  of  such  Leased
                  Property;

          (c)     In the event of a  Condemnation  at such time when no Event of
                  Default has occurred and is continuing  and the related Lessee
                  is  obligated  to repair  and  rebuild  such  Leased  Property
                  pursuant to Section  10.4,  Lessor  shall,  upon such Lessee's
                  request,  assign  to  such  Lessee  Lessor's  interest  in any
                  applicable Awards; and

          (d)     As provided in Section 10.8, if such section is applicable.

         During any period of repair or  rebuilding  pursuant to this Article X,
this Lease will remain in full force and effect and Basic Rent shall continue to
accrue and be payable without abatement or reduction. Each Lessee shall maintain
records  setting forth  information  relating to the receipt and  application of
payments in  accordance  with this Section  10.6.  Such records shall be kept on
file by each Lessee at its offices and shall be made  available  to Lessor,  the
Lender and the Agent upon request.

     Section 10.7 Prosecution of Awards.

         If any Condemnation shall occur, the party receiving the notice of such
Condemnation  shall give to the other party and the Agent  promptly,  but in any
event within thirty (30) days after the  occurrence  thereof,  written notice of
such occurrence and the date thereof, generally describing the nature and extent
of such  Condemnation.  With respect to any Event of Taking or any Condemnation,
the related Lessee shall control the negotiations with the relevant Governmental
Authority as to any  proceeding in respect of which Awards are  required,  under
Section  10.6,  to be assigned or  released to such  Lessee,  unless an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  in which case (i) the Agent (or
Lessor if the Loans have been fully paid) shall control such  negotiations;  and
(ii) such Lessee hereby irrevocably  assigns,  transfers and sets over to Lessor
all rights of such  Lessee to any Award on account of any Event of Taking or any
Condemnation and, if there will not be separate Awards to Lessor and such Lessee
on account of such Event of Taking or Condemnation,  irrevocably  authorizes and
empowers  the Agent (or  Lessor if the Loans have been  fully  paid)  during the
continuance of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution, in the name
of such Lessee or otherwise (but without limiting the obligations of such Lessee
under  this  Article  X), to file and  prosecute  what would  otherwise  be such
Lessee's  claim for any such Award and to  collect,  receipt  for and retain the
same. In any event Lessor and the Agent may  participate  in such  negotiations,
and no settlement will be made without the prior consent of the Agent (or Lessor
if the Loans have been fully paid), not to be unreasonably withheld.

         2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lessee may prosecute, and Lessor
shall have no  interest  in, any claim with  respect to such  Lessee's  personal
property and equipment not financed by or otherwise property of Lessor, business
interruption or similar award and such Lessee's relocation expenses.

     Section 10.8 Application of Certain  Payments Not Relating to an Event
                  of Taking.

         In case of a  requisition  for temporary use of all or a portion of any
Leased Property which is not an Event of Taking, this Lease shall remain in full
force and effect with respect to such Leased Property,  without any abatement or
reduction of Basic Rent, and the Awards for such Leased Property  shall,  unless
an Event of Default  has  occurred  and is  continuing,  be paid to the  related
Lessee.

     Section 10.9 Other Dispositions.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing  provisions of this Article X, so long as
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any amount that would
otherwise  be  payable to or for the  account  of, or that  would  otherwise  be
retained  by,  Lessee  pursuant to this Article X shall be paid to the Agent (or
Lessor if the Loans have been fully paid) as security for the obligations of the
Lessees  under this Lease and,  at such time  thereafter  as no Event of Default
shall be continuing, such amount shall be paid promptly to the related Lessee to
the extent not previously  applied by Lessor or the Agent in accordance with the
terms of this Lease or the other Operative Documents.

     Section 10.10 No Rent Abatement.

         Rent shall not abate hereunder by reason of any Casualty,  any Event of
Loss, any Event of Taking or any Condemnation of any Leased  Property,  and each
Lessee shall  continue to perform and fulfill all of such Lessee's  obligations,
covenants and agreements hereunder notwithstanding such Casualty, Event of Loss,
Event of Taking or Condemnation  until the Lease  Termination  Date and the full
payment of all obligations owing by any Lessee under any Operative Document.

     Section 10.11 Construction Land Interests.

         This  Article X shall not apply with respect to any  Construction  Land
Interest  during  the  Construction  Term  therefor  except  as set forth in the
Construction Agency Agreement.

or deed of trust shall be the effective date of this Lease, or the related Lease

Supplement  shall be deemed to be the recording of such mortgage,  security deed

ARTICLE XIII ENFORCEMENT

     Section  13.1 Remedies.

         Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default,
Lessor  may do one or more of the  following  as Lessor  in its sole  discretion
shall  determine,  without limiting any other right or remedy Lessor may have on
account of such Event of Default (including,  without limitation, the obligation
of the Lessees to purchase the Leased Properties as set forth in Section 14.3):

       (a)   Lessor may, by notice to Dollar, rescind or terminate this Lease as
             of the date  specified in such notice;  however,  (A) no reletting,
             reentry or taking of  possession  of any Leased  Property by Lessor
             will be construed as an election on Lessor's part to terminate this
             Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Dollar,
             (B) notwithstanding any reletting, reentry or taking of possession,
             Lessor may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for
             a  continuing  Event of  Default,  and (C) no act or thing  done by
             Lessor or any of its agents,  representatives  or employees  and no
             agreement  accepting a surrender  of any Leased  Property  shall be
             valid unless the same be made in writing and executed by Lessor;

       (b)   Lessor may (i) demand that the Lessees,  and the Lessees shall upon
             the written demand of Lessor, return the Leased Properties promptly
             to Lessor in the manner and condition required by, and otherwise in
             accordance  with  all of the  provisions  of,  Articles  VI and XIV
             hereof as if the Leased  Properties  were being returned at the end
             of the  Lease  Term,  and  Lessor  shall  not  be  liable  for  the
             reimbursement of any Lessee for any costs and expenses  incurred by
             such Lessee in connection  therewith and (ii) without  prejudice to
             any other remedy which Lessor may have for possession of the Leased
             Properties,  and to the  extent  and in  the  manner  permitted  by
             Applicable  Law, enter upon any Leased  Property and take immediate
             possession of (to the  exclusion of the related  Lessee) any Leased
             Property or any part thereof and expel or remove the related Lessee
             and any other person who may be occupying such Leased Property,  by
             summary  proceedings  or  otherwise,  all without  liability to any
             Lessee  for or by  reason of such  entry or  taking of  possession,
             whether for the  restoration  of damage to property  caused by such
             taking or otherwise and, in addition to Lessor's other damages, the
             Lessees shall be responsible  for the actual and  reasonable  costs
             and  expenses  of  reletting,   including  brokers'  fees  and  the
             reasonable  out-of-pocket  costs of any alterations or repairs made
             by Lessor;

       (c)   Lessor  may (i)  sell  all or any part of any  Leased  Property  at
             public or private sale, as Lessor may determine,  free and clear of
             any  rights of any Lessee  and  without  any duty to account to any
             Lessee with respect to such action or inaction or any proceeds with
             respect thereto (except to the extent required by Applicable Law or
             clause  (ii) below if Lessor  shall  elect to  exercise  its rights
             thereunder) in which event the related  Lessee's  obligation to pay
             Basic  Rent  for  such  Leased   Property   hereunder  for  periods
             commencing  after  the date of such  sale  shall be  terminated  or
             proportionately  reduced,  as the case may be;  and (ii) if  Lessor
             shall so elect, demand that the Lessees, jointly and severally, pay
             to Lessor,  and the Lessees,  jointly and  severally,  shall pay to
             Lessor, on the date of such sale, as liquidated damages for loss of
             a bargain and not as a penalty (the parties  agreeing that Lessor's
             actual   damages   would  be   difficult   to   predict,   but  the
             aforementioned    liquidated   damages   represent   a   reasonable
             approximation  of such  amount)  (in  lieu of  Basic  Rent  due for
             periods  commencing  on or after the Payment Date  coinciding  with
             such date of sale (or, if the sale date is not a Payment Date,  the
             Payment  Date next  preceding  the date of such  sale)),  an amount
             equal to (a) the excess, if any, of (1) the sum of (A) all Rent due
             and unpaid to and  including  such  Payment  Date and (B) the Lease
             Balance,  computed  as of such date,  over (2) the net  proceeds of
             such sale (that is, after  deducting  all  out-of-pocket  costs and
             expenses  incurred by Lessor,  the Agent or any Lender  incident to
             such  conveyance   (including,   without  limitation,   all  costs,
             expenses,  fees, premiums and taxes described in Section 14.5(b)));
             plus (b) interest at the Overdue Rate on the foregoing  amount from
             such Payment Date until the date of payment;

       (d)   Lessor may, at its option,  not terminate this Lease,  and continue
             to collect all Basic Rent, Supplemental Rent, and all other amounts
             (including,  without  limitation,  the  Funded  Amount)  due Lessor
             (together  with all costs of  collection)  and enforce the Lessees'
             obligations  under this Lease as and when the same  become  due, or
             are  to be  performed,  and at  the  option  of  Lessor,  upon  any
             abandonment of any Leased Property by Lessee or re-entry of same by
             Lessor, Lessor may, in its sole and absolute discretion,  elect not
             to  terminate  this Lease with  respect  thereto  and may make such
             reasonable alterations and necessary repairs in order to relet such
             Leased Property, and relet such Leased Property or any part thereof
             for such term or terms  (which may be for a term  extending  beyond
             the term of this Lease) and at such rental or rentals and upon such
             other terms and conditions as Lessor in its  reasonable  discretion
             may deem  advisable;  and upon  each  such  reletting  all  rentals
             actually received by Lessor from such reletting shall be applied to
             the Lessees'  obligations  hereunder in such order,  proportion and
             priority  as  Lessor  may  elect  in  Lessor's  sole  and  absolute
             discretion;  it being agreed that under no circumstances  shall any
             Lessee  benefit from its default from any increase in market rents.
             If such rentals received from such reletting during any Rent Period
             are less than the Rent to be paid  during  that Rent  Period by the
             Lessees  hereunder,  the  Lessees  shall  pay  any  deficiency,  as
             calculated  by Lessor,  to Lessor on the Payment Date for such Rent
             Period;

       (e)   If any Leased  Property has not been sold,  Lessor may,  whether or
             not Lessor  shall have  exercised or shall  thereafter  at any time
             exercise any of its rights under  paragraph (b), (c) or (d) of this
             Article  XIII with  respect to such  Leased  Property,  demand,  by
             written notice to the related Lessee  specifying a date (the "Final
             Rent Payment Date") not earlier than 30 days after the date of such
             notice, that such Lessee purchase,  on the Final Rent Payment Date,
             such Leased  Property in accordance with the provisions of Sections
             14.2,  14.4 and 14.5;  provided,  however,  that (1) such  purchase
             shall occur on the date set forth in such  notice,  notwithstanding
             the provision in Section 14.2 calling for such purchase to occur on
             the Lease  Termination  Date;  and (2) Lessor's  obligations  under
             Section  14.5(a)  shall be  limited  to  delivery  of a special  or
             limited  warranty  deed and quit claim bill of sale of such  Leased
             Property,  without  recourse  or  warranty,  but free and  clear of
             Lessor Liens;

       (f)   Lessor may exercise any other right or remedy that may be available
             to it under Applicable Law, or proceed by appropriate  court action
             (legal or  equitable)  to  enforce  the terms  hereof or to recover
             damages  for the breach  hereof.  Separate  suits may be brought to
             collect  any such  damages for any Rent  Period(s),  and such suits
             shall not in any manner  prejudice  Lessor's  right to collect  any
             such damages for any subsequent Rent Period(s), or Lessor may defer
             any such suit until  after the  expiration  of the Lease  Term,  in
             which event such suit shall be deemed not to have accrued until the
             expiration of the Lease Term; or

       (g)   Lessor may retain and apply against Lessor's damages all sums which
             Lessor would,  absent such Event of Default, be required to pay to,
             or turn over to, a Lessee pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

     Section 13.2 Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver; Consents.

         To the extent  permitted by, and subject to the mandatory  requirements
of, Applicable Law, each and every right,  power and remedy herein  specifically
given to Lessor or otherwise in this Lease shall be  cumulative  and shall be in
addition to every other right, power and remedy herein specifically given or now
or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and each and every right,
power and remedy whether  specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be
exercised  from  time to time and as often  and in such  order as may be  deemed
expedient by Lessor,  and the  exercise or the  beginning of the exercise of any
power or remedy  shall not be  construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise
at the same time or thereafter any right,  power or remedy. No delay or omission
by Lessor in the exercise of any right, power or remedy or in the pursuit of any
remedy  shall  impair any such right,  power or remedy or be  construed  to be a
waiver  of any  default  on the  part  of any  Lessee  or to be an  acquiescence
therein.  Lessor's consent to any request made by any Lessee shall not be deemed
to constitute or preclude the necessity for obtaining  Lessor's consent,  in the
future, to all similar  requests.  No express or implied waiver by Lessor of any
Event of  Default  shall in any way be, or be  construed  to be, a waiver of any
future or  subsequent  Potential  Event of Default or Event of  Default.  To the
extent  permitted by Applicable Law, each Lessee hereby waives any rights now or
hereafter  conferred  by statute or otherwise  that may require  Lessor to sell,
lease or  otherwise  use any Leased  Property or part thereof in  mitigation  of
Lessor's  damages  upon  the  occurrence  of an  Event  of  Default  or that may
otherwise  limit or modify any of Lessor's rights or remedies under this Article
XIII.

 ARTICLE XIV. SALE, RETURN OR PURCHASE OF LEASED PROPERTY; RENEWAL

Section 14.1 Lessee's Option to Purchase.

         (a) Subject to the terms,  conditions  and provisions set forth in this
             Article  XIV,  the  Lessees  shall have the option  (the  "Purchase
             Option"),  to be  exercised as set forth  below,  to purchase  from
             Lessor, Lessor's interest in all of the Leased Properties; provided
             that,  except as set forth in paragraph (b) below, such option must
             be  exercised  with  respect to all,  but not less than all, of the
             Leased Properties under all of the Lease  Supplements.  Such option
             must be exercised  by written  notice by Dollar to Lessor not later
             than twelve months prior to the Lease Termination Date which notice
             shall be irrevocable;  such notice shall specify the date that such
             purchase shall take place, which date shall be a date occurring not
             less  than  thirty  (30)  days  after  such  notice  or  the  Lease
             Termination Date (whichever is earlier).  If the Purchase Option is
             exercised   pursuant  to  the  foregoing,   then,  subject  to  the
             provisions  set  forth  in  this  Article  XIV,  on the  applicable
             purchase  date or the Lease  Termination  Date, as the case may be,
             Lessor shall convey to each Lessee,  by special  warranty  deed and
             bill of sale,  without  recourse or warranty  (other than as to the
             absence  of Lessor  Liens)  and each  Lessee  shall  purchase  from
             Lessor,  Lessor's  interest in the Leased Properties leased by such
             Lessee.

         (b) Subject to the terms,  conditions  and provisions set forth in this
             Article  XIV,  each  Lessee  shall  have the option  (the  "Partial
             Purchase Option"),  to be exercised as set forth below, to purchase
             from Lessor Lessor's interest in any Leased Property leased by such
             Lessee;  provided that such option may be exercised  only if, after
             giving effect thereto,  there are 50 Leased  Properties  subject to
             this  Lease,  unless it is  exercised  with  respect  to all Leased
             Properties as set forth in paragraph (a) above. Such option must be
             exercised  by written  notice to Lessor at any time during the term
             of the Lease, which notice shall be irrevocable;  such notice shall
             specify the Leased  Property to be purchased and the date that such
             purchase shall take place, which date shall be a date occurring not
             less than  thirty  (30) days after such  notice,  provided  that no
             Partial  Purchase  Option may be exercised  during the last year of
             the Lease Term. If a Partial Purchase Option is exercised  pursuant
             to the  foregoing,  subject  to the  provisions  set  forth in this
             Article  XIV,  on  the  applicable   purchase  date  or  the  Lease
             Termination  Date,  as the case may be,  Lessor shall convey to the
             related Lessee,  without recourse or warranty (other than as to the
             absence  of Lessor  Liens)  and such  Lessee  shall  purchase  from
             Lessor,  Lessor's  interest  in the  Leased  Property  that  is the
             subject of such Partial Purchase Option pursuant to Section 14.5.

     Section 14.2  Conveyance  to Lessee.

         Unless (a) the  Lessees  shall have  properly  exercised  the  Purchase
Option  and  purchased  the Leased  Properties  pursuant  to Section  14.1(a) or
14.1(b) hereof, or (b) the Lessees shall have properly exercised the Remarketing
Option and shall have  fulfilled  all of the  conditions of Section 14.6 hereof,
then, subject to the terms,  conditions and provisions set forth in this Article
XIV,  each Lessee shall  purchase  from Lessor,  and Lessor shall convey to each
Lessee,  on the Lease  Termination  Date all of Lessor's  interest in the Leased
Properties leased to such Lessee. Any Lessee may designate, in a notice given to
Lessor  not less  than ten  (10)  Business  Days  prior to the  closing  of such
purchase,  or any purchase pursuant to Section 14.1(a) or (b),(time being of the
essence),  the transferee to whom the conveyance shall be made (if other than to
such  Lessee),  in which case such  conveyance  shall  (subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein) be made to such designee;  provided,  however, that
such  designation  of a  transferee  shall not cause any Lessee to be  released,
fully or partially, from any of its obligations under this Lease.

     Section 14.3 Acceleration of Purchase  Obligation.

         The Lessees  shall be  obligated to purchase  Lessor's  interest in the
Leased  Properties  immediately,  automatically  and  without  notice  upon  the
occurrence  of any Event of  Default  specified  in clause (f) or (g) of Article
XII, for the purchase  price set forth in Section 14.4.  Upon the occurrence and
during the  continuance  of any other  Event of Default,  the  Lessees  shall be
obligated  to  purchase  Lessor's  interest  in the  Leased  Properties  for the
purchase  price set forth in Section  14.4 upon notice of such  obligation  from
Lessor.

     Section 14.4  Determination of Purchase Price.

         Upon the  purchase by the  Lessees of  Lessor's  interest in the Leased
Properties  upon the exercise of the Purchase Option or pursuant to Section 14.2
or 14.3, the aggregate  purchase price for all of the Leased Properties shall be
an amount equal to the Lease  Balance as of the closing date for such  purchase,
plus any amount due  pursuant  to Section  7.5(f) of the Master  Agreement  as a
result of such purchase. Upon the purchase by a Lessee of Lessor's interest in a
Leased  Property upon the exercise of a Partial  Purchase  Option,  the purchase
price for such Leased  Property shall be an amount equal to the Leased  Property
Balance for such Leased Property as of the closing date for such purchase,  plus
any amount due pursuant to Section 7.5(f) of the Master  Agreement as the result
of such purchase.

     Section 14.5 Purchase Procedure.

         If a Lessee  shall  purchase  Lessor's  interest  in a Leased  Property
pursuant to any  provision  of this Lease,  (i) such  Lessee  shall  accept from
Lessor and Lessor  shall  convey such Leased  Property  by a duly  executed  and
acknowledged  special warranty deed and quit claim bill of sale of such a Leased
Property  in  recordable  form,  (ii) upon the date  fixed for any  purchase  of
Lessor's interest in Leased Property hereunder,  the related Lessee(s) shall pay
to the order of the Agent  (or  Lessor if the Loans  have been paid in full) the
Lease Balance or Leased  Property  Balance,  as applicable,  plus any amount due
pursuant to Section 7.5 of the Master  Agreement as a result of such purchase by
wire  transfer of  immediately  available  funds,  (iii) Lessor will execute and
deliver  to  the  related  Lessee  such  other  documents,  including  releases,
affidavits, termination agreements and termination statements, as may be legally
required  or as may be  reasonably  requested  by Lessee in order to effect such
conveyance,  free and  clear of  Lessor  Liens  and the  Liens of the  Operative
Documents and (iv) if such Leased Property is subject to a Ground Lease,  Lessor
will execute and deliver to the related  Lessee an assignment or  termination of
such Ground Lease, as directed by such Lessee, in such form as may be reasonably
requested by such Lessee, and such Lessee shall pay any amounts due with respect
thereto under such Ground Lease.

       (a)   Each Lessee shall,  at such Lessee's sole cost and expense,  obtain
             all required  governmental and regulatory approval and consents and
             in  connection  therewith  shall make such  filings as  required by
             Applicable  Law; in the event that Lessor is required by Applicable
             Law to take any action in  connection  with such purchase and sale,
             the   Lessees   shall  pay  prior  to   transfer   all   reasonable
             out-of-pocket  costs  incurred by Lessor in  connection  therewith.
             Without  limiting  the  foregoing,   all  costs  incident  to  such
             conveyance, including, without limitation, each Lessee's attorneys'
             fees,  Lessor's  attorneys'  fees,  commissions,  each Lessee's and
             Lessor's escrow fees,  recording fees, title insurance premiums and
             all  applicable  documentary  transfer or other  transfer taxes and
             other  taxes  required  to be paid in order to record the  transfer
             documents  that might be imposed by reason of such  conveyance  and
             the  delivery  of such deed shall be borne  entirely by and paid by
             the Lessees.

       (b)   Upon   expiration  or  termination  of  this  Lease   resulting  in
             conveyance  of  Lessor's  interest  in  the  title  to  the  Leased
             Properties to the Lessees, there shall be no apportionment of rents
             (including,  without  limitation,  water  rents and  sewer  rents),
             taxes,  insurance,  utility  charges or other charges  payable with
             respect  to the  Leased  Properties,  all  of  such  rents,  taxes,
             insurance, utility or other charges due and payable with respect to
             the Leased  Properties  prior to  termination  being payable by the
             Lessees  hereunder and all due after such time being payable by the
             Lessees as the then owners of the Leased Properties.

     Section 14.6 Option to Remarket.

         Subject to the  fulfillment of each of the conditions set forth in this
Section  14.6,  the Lessees shall have the option to market all of, but not less
than all of, the Leased Properties for Lessor (the "Remarketing Option").

         The Lessees'  effective  exercise and  consummation  of the Remarketing
Option  shall  be  subject  to the due  and  timely  fulfillment  of each of the
following  provisions,  the failure of any of which, unless waived in writing by
Lessor and the Lender,  shall  render the  Remarketing  Option and the  Lessees'
exercise  thereof null and void, in which event,  each Lessee shall be obligated
to perform its obligations under Section 14.2.

       (a)   Not later than twelve months prior to the Lease  Termination  Date,
             Dollar  shall  give to Lessor and the Agent  written  notice of the
             Lessees' exercise of the Remarketing Option.

       (b)   Not  later  than  ten  (10)   Business  Days  prior  to  the  Lease
             Termination Date, each Lessee shall deliver to Lessor and the Agent
             an  environmental  assessment of each Leased  Property leased by it
             dated  not  later  than  forty-five  (45)  days  prior to the Lease
             Termination Date. Such  environmental  assessment shall be prepared
             by an environmental  consultant  selected by the related Lessee and
             reasonably  satisfactory to the Agent, shall be in form, detail and
             substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, and shall otherwise
             indicate the environmental  condition of each Leased Property to be
             the same as described in the related Environmental Audit.

       (c)   On the date of  Dollar's  notice  to  Lessor  and the  Agent of the
             Lessees'   exercise  of  the  Remarketing   Option,   each  of  the
             Construction  Conditions  shall have been timely  satisfied  and no
             Event of Default or Potential  Event of Default  shall  exist,  and
             thereafter, no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default shall
             exist under this Lease.

       (d)   Each Lessee shall have completed all  Alterations,  restoration and
             rebuilding  of the  Leased  Properties  leased  by it  pursuant  to
             Sections  6.1,  6.2,  10.3 and 10.4 (as the case may be) and  shall
             have  fulfilled in all material  respects all of the conditions and
             requirements in connection therewith pursuant to said Sections,  in
             each  case by the  date on  which  Lessor  and  the  Agent  receive
             Dollar's notice of the Lessees' exercise of the Remarketing  Option
             (time being of the  essence),  regardless of whether the same shall
             be within such Lessee's control.

       (e)   Each Lessee shall promptly provide any maintenance records relating
             to each Leased Property  leased by it to Lessor,  the Agent and any
             potential purchaser, and shall otherwise do all things necessary to
             deliver  possession  of  such  Leased  Property  to  the  potential
             purchaser at the appropriate  closing date. Each Lessee shall allow
             Lessor,  the Agent and any potential  purchaser  reasonable  access
             during normal business hours to any Leased Property for the purpose
             of inspecting the same.

       (f)   On the Lease  Termination  Date,  each Lessee shall  surrender  the
             Leased  Properties  leased by it in  accordance  with  Section 14.8
             hereof.

       (g)   In  connection  with any such sale of the Leased  Properties,  each
             Lessee  will  provide to the  purchaser  all  customary  "seller's"
             indemnities  requested  by the  potential  purchaser  (taking  into
             account  the  location  and  nature  of  the  Leased   Properties),
             representations  and warranties  regarding title,  absence of Liens
             (except  Lessor Liens) and the condition of the Leased  Properties,
             including,  without limitation,  an environmental  indemnity.  Each
             Lessee shall  fulfill all of the  requirements  set forth in clause
             (b) of Section 14.5, and such requirements are incorporated  herein
             by reference.  As to Lessor,  any such sale shall be made on an "as
             is, with all faults"  basis without  representation  or warranty by
             Lessor, other than the absence of Lessor Liens.

       (h)   In connection with any such sale of Leased Properties,  each Lessee
             shall pay directly, and not from the sale proceeds, all prorations,
             credits,  costs and  expenses of the sale of the Leased  Properties
             leased by it, whether incurred by Lessor,  any Lender, the Agent or
             such Lessee,  including without limitation,  to the extent not paid
             by the  purchaser,  the  cost  of  all  title  insurance,  surveys,
             environmental reports, appraisals, transfer taxes, Lessor's and the
             Agent's   attorneys'   fees,   such   Lessee's   attorneys'   fees,
             commissions,  escrow  fees,  recording  fees,  and  all  applicable
             documentary and other transfer taxes.

       (i)   The Lessees,  jointly and severally,  shall pay to the Agent on the
             Lease  Termination  Date (or to such  other  Person as Agent  shall
             notify Lessee in writing,  or in the case of Supplemental  Rent, to
             the  Person  entitled  thereto)  an  amount  equal to the  Recourse
             Deficiency  Amount,  plus all  accrued  and  unpaid  Basic Rent and
             Supplemental  Rent,  and all other  amounts  hereunder  which  have
             accrued prior to or as of such date, in the type of funds specified
             in Section 3.3 hereof.

         If the Lessees have  exercised the  Remarketing  Option,  the following
additional  provisions  shall apply:  During the period  commencing  on the date
twelve months prior to the scheduled  expiration of the Lease Term,  one or more
of the  Lessees  shall,  as  nonexclusive  agent for  Lessor,  use  commercially
reasonable  efforts to sell Lessor's  interest in the Leased Properties and will
attempt to obtain the highest purchase price therefor. All such marketing of the
Leased  Properties shall be at the Lessees' sole expense.  Lessee promptly shall
submit  all bids to Lessor  and the Agent and Lessor and the Agent will have the
right to review the same and the right to submit any one or more bids.  All bids
shall be on an  all-cash  basis.  In no event shall such bidder be Lessee or any
Subsidiary  or  Affiliate  of Lessee.  The written  offer must specify the Lease
Termination  Date as the closing date.  If, and only if, the  aggregate  selling
price (net of closing  costs and  prorations,  as  reasonably  estimated  by the
Agent) is less than the difference  between the Lease Balance at such time minus
the Recourse  Deficiency  Amount,  then Lessor or the Agent may, in its sole and
absolute  discretion,  by notice to Dollar,  reject such offer to  purchase,  in
which event the parties will proceed according to the provisions of Section 14.7
hereof.  If neither Lessor nor the Agent rejects such purchase offer as provided
above,  the closing of such purchase of the Leased  Properties by such purchaser
shall occur on the Lease Termination Date,  contemporaneously  with the Lessees'
surrender of the Leased  Properties in accordance with Section 14.8 hereof,  and
the gross  proceeds  of the sale (i.e.,  without  deduction  for any  marketing,
closing or other costs, prorations or commissions) shall be paid directly to the
Agent (or Lessor if the Funded Amounts have been fully paid); provided, however,
that  if the  sum of the  gross  proceeds  from  such  sale  plus  the  Recourse
Deficiency  Amount paid by the Lessees on the Lease Termination Date pursuant to
Section  14.6(i),  minus any and all  reasonable  costs and expenses  (including
broker fees, appraisal costs, reasonable legal fees and transfer taxes) incurred
by the Agent or Lessor in connection with the marketing of the Leased Properties
or the sale thereof  exceeds the Lease Balance as of such date,  then the excess
shall be paid to Dollar on the Lease  Termination Date. No Lessee shall have the
right, power or authority to bind Lessor in connection with any proposed sale of
the Leased Properties.

     Section 14.7 Rejection of Sale.

         Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Lessor or
the Agent  rejects the purchase  offer for the Leased  Properties as provided in
(and subject to the conditions set forth in) Section 14.6, then (a) the Lessees,
jointly and  severally,  shall pay to the Agent the Recourse  Deficiency  Amount
pursuant  to  Section  14.6(i),  (b)  Lessor  shall  retain  title to the Leased
Properties, and (c) in addition to Lessees' other obligations hereunder, Lessees
will reimburse Lessor and the Agent, within ten (10) Business Days after written
request,  for all  reasonable  costs and  expenses  incurred  by Lessor or Agent
during the period ending on the first  anniversary of the Lease Termination Date
in  connection  with the  marketing,  sale,  closing or  transfer  of the Leased
Properties,  which obligation  shall survive the Lease  Termination Date and the
termination or expiration of this Lease.

     Section 14.8 Return of Leased  Property.

         If Lessor retains title to any Leased Property pursuant to Section 14.7
hereof,  then each Lessee shall, on the Lease  Termination  Date, and at its own
expense,  return  possession of the Leased Properties leased by it to Lessor for
retention by Lessor or, if the Lessees properly exercise the Remarketing  Option
and fulfill all of the  conditions of Section 14.6 hereof and neither Lessor nor
the Agent rejects such purchase offer pursuant to Section 14.6, then each Lessee
shall, on such Lease Termination Date, and at its own cost,  transfer possession
of the Leased Properties leased by it to the independent  purchaser thereof,  in
each  case by  surrendering  the same  into the  possession  of  Lessor  or such
purchaser,  as the case may be,  free and clear of all Liens  other than  Lessor
Liens,  in as good  condition as it was on the  Completion  Date therefor in the
case of new  Construction,  or the Closing Date  therefor in each other case (as
modified  by  Alterations  permitted  by this  Lease),  ordinary  wear  and tear
excepted,  and in compliance in all material  respects with Applicable Law. Each
Lessee  shall,  on and  within a  reasonable  time  before  and  after the Lease
Termination  Date,  cooperate with Lessor and the  independent  purchaser of any
Leased  Property  leased by such Lessee in order to facilitate the ownership and
operation by such purchaser of such Leased Property after the Lease  Termination
Date, which  cooperation  shall include the following,  all of which such Lessee
shall do on or before the Lease  Termination  Date or as soon  thereafter  as is
reasonably  practicable:  providing all books and records  regarding the related
Lessee's  maintenance  of such  Leased  Property  and  all  know-how,  data  and
technical  information  relating  thereto,  providing  a copy of the  Plans  and
Specifications,  granting or assigning  all licenses (to the extent  assignable)
necessary  for the  operation  and  maintenance  of such  Leased  Property,  and
cooperating  in seeking and obtaining all necessary  Governmental  Action.  Each
Lessee shall have also paid the cost of all  Alterations  commenced prior to the
Lease  Termination  Date. The  obligations of such Lessee under this Article XIV
shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

     Section 14.9 Renewal.

         Subject to the  conditions  set forth  herein,  Dollar  may, by written
notice to Lessor  and the Agent  given not  later  than  twelve  months  and not
earlier than sixteen months, prior to the then scheduled Lease Termination Date,
request  the  renewal  of this  Lease,  for five  years in the case of the first
renewal term and five years in the case of the second renewal term, in each case
commencing on the date following such Lease  Termination Date. No later than the
date that is 45 days after the date the request to renew has been  delivered  to
each of Lessor and the Agent, the Agent will notify Dollar whether or not Lessor
and the Lender consent to such renewal  request (which  consent,  in the case of
Lessor and the Lender,  may be granted or denied in their sole  discretion,  and
may be  conditioned on such  conditions  precedent as may be specified by Lessor
and the  Lender).  If the Agent fails to respond  within  such time frame,  such
failure shall be deemed to be a rejection of such request. If the Agent notifies
Dollar of Lessor's and the Lender's consent to such renewal,  such renewal shall
be effective.

ARTICLE XV. LESSEE'S EQUIPMENT

         After any  repossession  of any Leased  Property  (whether  or not this
Lease has been  terminated),  the related Lessee,  at its expense and so long as
such removal of such trade  fixture,  personal  property or equipment  shall not
result in a violation of Applicable Law,  shall,  within a reasonable time after
such  repossession  or within  sixty (60) days after  such  Lessee's  receipt of
Lessor's  written  request  (whichever  shall first  occur),  remove all of such
Lessee's  trade  fixtures,  personal  property  and  equipment  from such Leased
Property  (to the extent that the same can be readily  removed  from such Leased
Property  without causing  material damage to such Leased  Property);  provided,
however,  that such Lessee  shall not remove any such trade  fixtures,  personal
property or equipment  that (i) has been  financed by Lessor under the Operative
Documents or otherwise  constituting  Leased  Property  (or that  constitutes  a
replacement of such property) or (ii) with respect to which Lessor notifies such
Lessee that it is exercising  the purchase  option with respect  thereto,  which
purchase option each Lessee hereby grants to Lessor (in which case, Lessor shall
pay to such  Lessee  the fair  market  value  of such  trade  fixture,  personal
property or  equipment on such date of  repossession  (as  determined  by mutual
agreement  of Lessor and such  Lessee  or, if no mutual  agreement  is  promptly
achieved,  by an appraiser reasonably  acceptable to Lessor and such Lessee) and
such  Lessee  shall  execute  and  deliver a bill of sale  therefor  to Lessor),
provided that the purchase  option set forth in this clause (ii) shall not apply
to any Lessee's  inventory or to any personal property of any Lessee not used or
useful in connection with the Leased Property. Any of a Lessee's trade fixtures,
personal property and equipment not so removed by such Lessee within such period
shall be  considered  abandoned by such Lessee,  and title thereto shall without
further  act  vest  in  Lessor,  and may be  appropriated,  sold,  destroyed  or
otherwise  disposed  of by Lessor  without  notice  to any  Lessee  and  without
obligation  to account  therefor  and the related  Lessee will pay Lessor,  upon
written  demand,  all  reasonable  costs  and  expenses  incurred  by  Lessor in
removing,  storing or disposing of the same and all costs and expenses  incurred
by Lessor to repair any damage to such Leased  Property  caused by such removal.
Each  Lessee  will  immediately  repair at its expense all damage to such Leased
Property  caused by any such removal (unless such removal is effected by Lessor,
in which event such Lessee shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses  incurred
by Lessor for such  repairs).  Lessor  shall  have no  liability  in  exercising
Lessor's  rights under this Article XV except as set forth in clause (ii) of the
first sentence hereof, nor shall Lessor be responsible for any loss of or damage
to any Lessee's personal property and equipment.

ARTICLE XVI RIGHT TO PERFORM FOR LESSEE

         If  any  Lessee  shall  fail  to  perform  or  comply  with  any of its
agreements  contained herein,  Lessor, upon notice to Dollar or such Lessee, may
perform or comply with such agreement, and Lessor shall not thereby be deemed to
have waived any default  caused by such failure,  and the amount of such payment
and the  amount of the  expenses  of Lessor  (including  actual  and  reasonable
attorneys'  fees and expenses)  incurred in connection  with such payment or the
performance of or compliance with such  agreement,  as the case may be, shall be
deemed  Supplemental Rent, payable by the related Lessee to Lessor within thirty
(30) days after written demand therefor.

 ARTICLE XVII, MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 17.1 Reports.

         To the extent  required  under  Applicable  Law and to the extent it is
reasonably  practical  for a Lessee to do so, such Lessee shall prepare and file
in timely fashion,  or, where such filing is required to be made by Lessor or it
is otherwise not reasonably  practical for a Lessee to make such filing,  Lessee
shall  prepare  and  deliver  to  Lessor  (with a copy to the  Agent)  within  a
reasonable time prior to the date for filing and Lessor shall file, any material
reports with respect to the condition or operation of such Leased  Property that
shall be required to be filed with any Governmental Authority.

     Section 17.2 Binding  Effect;  Successors  and Assigns;  Survival.

         The terms and provisions of this Lease,  and the respective  rights and
obligations  hereunder  of Lessor and the  Lessees,  shall be binding upon their
respective successors, legal representatives and assigns (including, in the case
of Lessor,  any Person to whom Lessor may  transfer  any Leased  Property or any
interest therein in accordance with the provisions of the Operative  Documents),
and inure to the benefit of their respective  permitted  successors and assigns,
and the  rights  granted  hereunder  to the Agent  and the  Lender  shall  inure
(subject to such  conditions  as are  contained  herein) to the benefit of their
respective  permitted  successors and assigns.  Each Lessee hereby  acknowledges
that Lessor has assigned  all of its right,  title and interest to, in and under
this  Lease to the Agent  and the  Lender  pursuant  to the Loan  Agreement  and
related  Operative  Documents,  and that all of Lessor's rights hereunder may be
exercised by the Agent.

     Section 17.3 Quiet Enjoyment.

         Lessor  covenants that it will not interfere in the related Lessee's or
any of its permitted  sublessees'  quiet  enjoyment of the Leased  Properties in
accordance with this Lease during the Lease Term, so long as no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing. Such right of quiet enjoyment is independent of,
and shall not affect,  Lessor's  rights  otherwise  to initiate  legal action to
enforce the obligations of the Lessees under this Lease.

     Section 17.5 Severability.

         Any provision of this Lease that shall be  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,  and Lessee shall remain liable to perform its  obligations
hereunder except to the extent of such unenforceability. To the extent permitted
by Applicable Law, each Lessee hereby waives any provision of law that renders
any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

     Section 17.6  Amendment;  Complete  Agreements.

         Neither  this  Lease nor any of the  terms  hereof  may be  terminated,
amended,  supplemented,  waived or modified  orally,  except by an instrument in
writing signed by Lessor and Dollar in accordance with the provisions of Section
8.4 of the Master  Agreement.  This Lease,  together with the  applicable  Lease
Supplement and the other  Operative  Documents,  is intended by the parties as a
final  expression  of their  lease  agreement  and as a complete  and  exclusive
statement  of  the  terms  thereof,   all   negotiations,   considerations   and
representations between the parties having been incorporated herein and therein.
No course of prior dealings  between the parties or their  officers,  employees,
agents or Affiliates shall be relevant or admissible to supplement,  explain, or
vary any of the terms of this Lease or any other Operative Document.  Acceptance
of, or acquiescence in, a course of performance rendered under this or any prior
agreement  between  the  parties or their  Affiliates  shall not be  relevant or
admissible  to  determine  the  meaning of any of the terms of this Lease or any
other Operative Document. No representations,  undertakings,  or agreements have
been  made or  relied  upon  in the  making  of  this  Lease  other  than  those
specifically set forth in the Operative Documents. B.

     Section 17.7 Construction.

         This Lease shall not be construed more strictly  against any one party,
it  being   recognized  that  both  of  the  parties  hereto  have   contributed
substantially and materially to the preparation and negotiation of this Lease.

     Section 17.8 Headings.

         The Table of Contents and headings of the various Articles and Sections
of this Lease are for convenience of reference only and shall not modify, define
or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.

     Section 17.9 Counterparts.

         This  Lease  may  be  executed  by  the  parties   hereto  in  separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original,
but all  such  counterparts  shall  together  constitute  but  one and the  same
instrument.

     Section 17.10  GOVERNING LAW.

         THIS LEASE  SHALL IN ALL  RESPECTS  BE GOVERNED  BY, AND  CONSTRUED  IN
ACCORDANCE  WITH,  THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TENNESSEE  APPLICABLE  TO AGREEMENTS
MADE AND TO BE  PERFORMED  ENTIRELY  WITHIN  SUCH  STATE,  EXCEPT AS TO  MATTERS
RELATING TO THE CREATION OF THE LEASEHOLD OR MORTGAGE ESTATES HEREUNDER, AND THE
EXERCISE OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES WITH RESPECT THERETO, WHICH SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATES IN WHICH SUCH ESTATES ARE
LOCATED.

     Section 17.11 Discharge of Lessee's  Obligations by its Subsidiaries or
             Affiliates.

         Lessor agrees that performance of any Lessee's obligations hereunder by
one or  more of  such  Lessee's  Subsidiaries  or  Affiliates  or one or more of
Lessee's  sublessees  of  the  Leased  Properties  or  any  part  thereof  shall
constitute performance by Lessee of such obligations to the same extent and with
the same effect  hereunder as if such obligations were performed by such Lessee,
but no such  performance  shall  excuse  any  Lessee  from  any  obligation  not
performed by it or on its behalf under the Operative Documents.

     Section 17.12 Liability of Lessor Limited.

         Except as otherwise  expressly provided below in this Section 17.12, it
is expressly understood and agreed by and between each Lessee,  Lessor and their
respective  successors  and  assigns  that  nothing  herein  contained  shall be
construed as creating any liability of Lessor or any of its Affiliates or any of
their  respective  officers,  directors,  employees or agents,  individually  or
personally,  for any failure to perform any covenant, either express or implied,
contained  herein,  all such liability  (other than that resulting from Lessor's
gross negligence or willful  misconduct,  except to the extent imputed to Lessor
by virtue of any Lessee's  action or failure to act),  if any,  being  expressly
waived by each Lessee and by each and every Person now or hereafter claiming by,
through or under any Lessee, and that, so far as Lessor or any of its Affiliates
or  any  of  their  respective   officers,   directors,   employees  or  agents,
individually  or personally,  is concerned,  each Lessee and any Person claiming
by,  through or under any  Lessee  shall  look  solely to the  right,  title and
interest  of  Lessor  in and to the  Leased  Properties  and any  proceeds  from
Lessor's sale or encumbrance thereof (provided, however, that no Lessee shall be
entitled to any double  recovery) for the  performance of any  obligation  under
this  Lease  and under  the  Operative  Documents  and the  satisfaction  of any
liability  arising  therefrom  (other than that  resulting  from Lessor's  gross
negligence  or willful  misconduct,  except to the  extent  imputed to Lessor by
virtue of any Lessee's action or failure to act).

     Section 17.13 Estoppel Certificates.

         Each party hereto  agrees that at any time and from time to time during
the Lease Term,  it will  promptly,  but in no event later than thirty (30) days
after request by the other party  hereto,  execute,  acknowledge  and deliver to
such other party or to any prospective  purchaser (if such prospective purchaser
has signed a commitment  or letter of intent to purchase any Leased  Property or
any part thereof or any Note),  assignee or mortgagee or third party  designated
by such other party, a certificate stating (a) that this Lease is unmodified and
in force and effect (or if there have been modifications,  that this Lease is in
force and effect as modified, and identifying the modification agreements);  (b)
the date to which  Basic  Rent has been  paid;  (c)  whether or not there is any
existing  default by any Lessee in the payment of Basic Rent or any other sum of
money  hereunder,  and  whether  or not there is any other  existing  default by
either party with respect to which a notice of default has been served,  and, if
there is any such default, specifying the nature and extent thereof; (d) whether
or not, to the  knowledge  of the signer  after due  inquiry and  investigation,
there are any setoffs,  defenses or  counterclaims  against  enforcement  of the
obligations to be performed  hereunder  existing in favor of the party executing
such certificate and (e) other items that may be reasonably requested;  provided
that no such certificate may be requested unless the requesting party has a good
faith reason for such request.

     Section 17.14 No Joint Venture.

         Any intention to create a joint venture, partnership or other fiduciary
relationship between Lessor and any Lessee is hereby expressly disclaimed.

     Section 17.15 No Accord and Satisfaction.

         The acceptance by Lessor of any sums from any Lessee  (whether as Basic
Rent or otherwise) in amounts which are less than the amounts due and payable by
the Lessees hereunder is not intended, nor shall be construed,  to constitute an
accord and  satisfaction of any dispute between Lessor and any Lessee  regarding
sums due and payable by any Lessee hereunder,  unless Lessor  specifically deems
it as such in writing.

     Section 17.16  No Merger.

         In no event  shall the  leasehold  interests,  estates or rights of any
Lessee  hereunder,  or of the holder of any Notes secured by a security interest
in this Lease,  merge with any  interests,  estates or rights of Lessor in or to
the  Leased  Properties,  it being  understood  that such  leasehold  interests,
estates  and  rights of each  Lessee  hereunder,  and of the holder of any Notes
secured by a security interest in this Lease, shall be deemed to be separate and
distinct  from  Lessor's  interests,  estates  and  rights  in or to the  Leased
Properties,  notwithstanding that any such interests, estates or rights shall at
any time or times be held by or vested in the same person,  corporation or other
entity.

     Section 17.17  Survival.

         The  obligations of each Lessee to be performed  under this Lease prior
to the Lease Termination Date and the obligations of Lessee pursuant to Articles
III, X, XI, XIII,  Sections 14.2, 14.3, 14.4, 14.5, 14.8,  Articles XV, and XVI,
and Sections 17.10 and 17.12 shall survive the expiration or termination of this
Lease.  The extension of any applicable  statute of  limitations by Lessor,  any
Lessee, the Agent or any Indemnitee shall not affect such survival.

     Section 17.18 Chattel Paper.

         To the extent that this Lease  constitutes  chattel paper (as such term
is defined in the Uniform  Commercial Code in any applicable  jurisdiction),  no
security  interest  in  this  Lease  may be  created  through  the  transfer  or
possession of any counterpart  other than the sole original  counterpart,  which
shall be identified as the original counterpart by the receipt of the Agent.

     Section 17.19 Time of Essence.

         Time is of the essence of this Lease.

     Section 17.20  Recordation of Lease.

         Each Lessee will,  at its expense,  cause this Lease or a memorandum of
lease in form and substance  reasonably  satisfactory  to Lessor and such Lessee
(if permitted by Applicable  Law) to be recorded in the proper office or offices
in the States and the municipalities in which the Land is located.

Section 17.21  Investment  of Security  Funds.

         The  parties  hereto  agree that any  amounts  not  payable to a Lessee
pursuant to any provision of Article VIII, X or XIV or this Section 17.21 solely
because an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing  shall be held
by the Agent (or Lessor if the Loans have been fully paid) as  security  for the
obligations  of the  Lessees  under this Lease and the Master  Agreement  and of
Lessor under the Loan  Agreement.  At such time as no Event of Default  shall be
continuing  such  amounts are payable to the Lessee,  such  amounts,  net of any
amounts  previously applied to the Lessees'  obligations  hereunder or under the
Master  Agreement  (which  application is hereby agreed to by Lessee),  shall be
paid to the related  Lessee.  Any such  amounts  which are held by the Agent (or
Lessor if the Loans  have been fully  paid)  pending  payment to a Lessee  shall
until paid to such Lessee,  as provided  hereunder or until applied  against the
Lessees'  obligations  herein and under the Master  Agreement and distributed as
provided in the Loan  Agreement or herein (after the Loan Agreement is no longer
in effect) in connection with any exercise of remedies hereunder, be invested by
the  Agent or  Lessor,  as the case may be,  as  directed  from  time to time in
writing by Lessee (provided, however, if an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing  it will be  directed  by the Agent or, if the Loans  have been fully
paid,  Lessor)  and  at the  expense  and  risk  of the  Lessees,  in  Permitted
Investments.  Any gain (including  interest  received) realized as the result of
any such  investment (net of any fees,  commissions and other expenses,  if any,
incurred in connection with such investment) shall be applied in the same manner
as the principal invested. Lessees upon demand shall pay to the Agent or Lessor,
as  appropriate,  the amount of any loss  incurred in  connection  with all such
investments and the liquidation thereof.

     Section 17.22 Ground Leases: IDB Documentation.

         Each Lessee will, at its expense, timely perform all of the obligations
of Lessor,  in its  capacity as ground  lessee,  under each Ground Lease and all
obligations  under any IDB  Documentation  and,  if  requested  by Lessor  shall
provide satisfactory evidence to Lessor of such performance.

     Section 17.23  Land and Building.

         If any  Building  and the Land on which such  Building  is located  are
subject to  separate  Lease  Supplements,  at any time that the  related  Lessee
exercises  an option to purchase  such  Building or such Land,  or to renew this
Lease with  respect to such  Building or such Land,  or is obligated to purchase
such  Building or such Land as a result of an Event of Loss,  an Event of Taking
or an Event of Default,  such purchase or renewal  shall be made  simultaneously
with respect to all of such Building and such Land.

     Section 17.24  Joint and Several.

         Each  obligation of each Lessee  hereunder shall be a joint and several
obligation of all of the Lessees.

                                    GUARANTY
                                    --------

          THIS  GUARANTY  AGREEMENT,  dated  as of June 11,  1999  (as  amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified, this "Guaranty"),  is made by Dollar General
Corporation, a Tennessee corporation ("Dollar" or the "Guarantor").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:
                              - - - - - - - - - -

          WHEREAS, Dollar, as a Lessee and Guarantor,  Atlantic Financial Group,
Ltd.  as Lessor,  certain  Subsidiaries  of Dollar,  as Lessees,  Three  Pillars
Funding  Corporation,  as Lender, the financial  institutions parties thereto as
Liquidity  Banks,  SunTrust  Bank,  Nashville,  N.A.,  as  Agent,  and  SunTrust
Equitable  Securities  Corporation,  as  Administrator  have  entered  into that
certain  Master  Agreement,  dated as of June 11,  1999 (as it may be  modified,
amended or restated  from time to time as and to the extent  permitted  thereby,
the "Master  Agreement";  and, unless otherwise defined herein,  terms which are
defined or defined by reference in the Master  Agreement  (including  Appendix A
thereto)  shall  have the same  meanings  when used  herein as such  terms  have
therein); and

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

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

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

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

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

          SECTION 1. Guaranty. The Guarantor hereby  unconditionally  guarantees
the full and prompt payment when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise,  and
at all times  thereafter,  and the full and  prompt  performance,  of all of the
Liabilities (as  hereinafter  defined),  including  interest and earnings on any
such  Liabilities  whether accruing before or after any bankruptcy or insolvency
case or proceeding involving  Guarantor,  any Lessee or any other Person and, if
interest  or earnings  on any  portion of such  obligations  ceases to accrue by
operation  of law by reason  of the  commencement  of such  case or  proceeding,
including  such  interest and yield as would have accrued on any such portion of
such  obligations  if such case or  proceeding  had not  commenced,  and further
agrees to pay all reasonable expenses (including  reasonable attorneys' fees and
legal  expenses)  actually  paid or incurred  by each of the Funding  Parties in
endeavoring to collect the  Liabilities,  or any part thereof,  and in enforcing

<PAGE>

this Guaranty.  The term  "Liabilities",  as used herein,  shall mean all of the
following, in each case howsoever created, arising or evidenced,  whether direct
or  indirect,  joint or several,  absolute or  contingent,  or now or  hereafter
existing,  or due or to become due: (i) all amounts payable by the Lessees under
the Lease  (including,  without  limitation,  Basic Rent,  Supplemental Rent and
Recourse Deficiency Amounts),  the Master Agreement (including the facility fee)
or any  other  Operative  Document,  and (ii) all  principal  of the  Notes  and
interest  accrued  thereon,  accrued Yield and all additional  amounts and other
sums at any time due and owing,  and required to be paid, to the Funding Parties
under the terms of the Master Agreement,  the Loan Agreement, the Assignments of
Lease and  Rents,  the  Mortgages,  the Notes or any other  Operative  Document;

<PAGE>

provided,  however,  that,  notwithstanding  anything to the contrary  contained
herein,  (i) the Guarantor will not be obligated under any  circumstances to pay
under this Guaranty,  and the term "Liabilities" shall not include,  any amounts
greater  than the  Lessees  would have had to pay,  under the Lease,  the Master
Agreement,  the Construction Agency Agreement and the other Operative Documents,
assuming that such documents  were enforced in accordance  with their terms (and
without  giving  effect to any  discharge  or  limitation  thereon  resulting or
arising by reason of the  bankruptcy  or  insolvency  of any  Lessee),  plus all
reasonable  costs  actually  incurred in enforcing this Guaranty and (ii) during
the Construction Term for a Construction Land Interest, only the Lessor shall be
a  beneficiary  under  this  Guaranty  with  respect to such  Construction  Land
Interest.  As an  illustration  of the  foregoing  proviso,  if the Lessees have
properly exercised the Remarketing  Option under the Lease,  Guarantor will only
be obligated to pay the amounts due pursuant to Section 14.6 of the Lease,  plus
the reasonable costs actually incurred, if any, in enforcing this Guaranty.

          By  way  of  extension  and  not in  limitation  of  any of its  other
obligations  hereunder,  but subject to the immediately preceding sentence,  the
Guarantor  stipulates and agrees that in the event any  foreclosure  proceedings
are  commenced and result in the entering of a  foreclosure  judgment,  any such
foreclosure judgment, to the extent related to the Liabilities, shall be treated
as part of the  Liabilities,  and the Guarantor  unconditionally  guarantees the
full and prompt payment of such judgment.

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

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

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

          SECTION 5. Reinstatement. The Guarantor further agrees that, if at any
time  all  or  any  part  of  any  payment  theretofore  applied  to  any of the
Liabilities  is or must be  rescinded  or  returned  for any  reason  whatsoever
(including, without limitation, the insolvency,  bankruptcy or reorganization of
the Guarantor or any Lessee),  such Liabilities  shall, for the purposes of this

                                       2
<PAGE>

Guaranty,  to the extent that such  payment is or must be rescinded or returned,
be deemed to have continued in existence,  notwithstanding such application, and
this Guaranty shall  continue to be effective or be reinstated,  as the case may
be, as to such Liabilities, all as though such application had not been made.

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

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

          SECTION  8.  Waiver.  Subject  in each  event to the  notice,  if any,
otherwise expressly required under the Operative Documents, the Guarantor hereby
expressly waives:  (a) notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty;  (b) notice of
the existence or creation or non-payment of all or any of the  Liabilities;  (c)
presentment,  demand,  notice  of  dishonor,  protest,  and  all  other  notices
whatsoever;  and  (d)  except  as  provided  to the  contrary  in the  Operative
Documents,  all diligence in collection or protection of or realization upon the
Liabilities  or any thereof,  any obligation  hereunder,  or any security for or
guaranty of any of the foregoing.

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

          SECTION 10.  Miscellaneous.  No delay in the  exercise of any right or
remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof,  and no single or partial  exercise of
any right or remedy  shall  preclude  other or further  exercise  thereof or the
exercise of any other right or remedy;  nor shall any  modification or waiver of
any of the  provisions of this Guaranty be binding upon any Funding Party except
as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered on its behalf.  No
action permitted hereunder shall in any way affect or impair any Funding Party's
rights or the Guarantor's  obligations under this Guaranty.  For the purposes of

                                       3
<PAGE>

this Guaranty, Liabilities shall include all of the obligations described in the
definition  thereof,  notwithstanding  any  right or power of any  Lessee or the
Lessor or anyone else to assert any claim or defense  (other than final payment)
as to the invalidity or  unenforceability  of any such  obligation,  and no such
claim or  defense  shall  affect  or impair  the  obligations  of the  Guarantor
hereunder. The Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty shall be absolute and
unconditional irrespective of any circumstance whatsoever which might constitute
a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby
acknowledges  that there are no conditions to the effectiveness of this Guaranty
which have not been satisfied as of the date hereof.

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

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

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

          All notices, demands, declarations,  consents, directions,  approvals,
instructions,  requests and other  communications  required or permitted by this
Guaranty  shall be in  writing  and shall be deemed to have been duly given when
addressed to the  appropriate  Person and  delivered in the manner  specified in
Section 8.2 of the Master Agreement.

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