                                      -38-
<PAGE>

foregoing do not infringe on the rights of any Person other than such
infringement which could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No claim has been made and
remains outstanding that the Company's or any Subsidiary's use of any Collateral
does or may violate the rights of any third party that could, individually or in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. Except as set forth on SCHEDULE 4.10(A), no claim has been asserted and
is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such
Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual
Property, nor does the Company or any of the other Issuers know of any valid
basis for any such claim. The use of such Intellectual Property by the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries does not to the knowledge of the Company and its
Subsidiaries infringe the rights of any Person, except for such claims and
infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (b) REGISTRATIONS. Except pursuant to licenses and other user

         Time will be made) for the payment of Taxes for which the Company or
         any of its Subsidiaries may be liable that are due and payable after

         knowledge of the Company, is being threatened by any relevant taxing
         authority against the Company or any Subsidiary in respect of any
         material Tax. There are no material unsatisfied liabilities for Taxes

         any of its Subsidiaries that arose in connection with any failure (or
         alleged failure) to pay any Tax;

                  (h) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has ever
         been a member of an affiliated, combined, consolidated or unitary Tax
         group for purposes of filing any Tax Return, other than a group of
         which the Company or one of its Subsidiaries is or was the common

                  (k) the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has complied in

                  (l) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has
         participated in any "reportable transaction" within the meaning of
         Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4 (or any predecessor regulation) or
         any "confidential corporate tax shelter" within the meaning of Treasury
         Regulation Section 301.6111-2 (or any predecessor regulation).

                  SECTION 4.12. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. Except as set forth on
SCHEDULE 4.12,

                  (a) there has been no failure by any employee benefit plan,
         within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income
         Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), which is maintained by the
         Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to which the Company or any of
         its Subsidiaries contributes (each a "PLAN") to comply with the
         applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code other than any such
         failures that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would
         not have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no material pending or, to
         the knowledge of any Issuer threatened, litigation relating to the
         Plans. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in a
         transaction with respect to any Plan that, assuming the taxable period
         of such transaction expired as of the date hereof, could subject the
         Company or any of its Subsidiaries to a tax or penalty imposed by
         either Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA other than
         those that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would
         not have a Material Adverse Effect;

                  (b) no liability under Subtitle C or D of Title IV of ERISA
         has been or is expected to be incurred by the Company or any of its
         Subsidiaries with respect to any ongoing, frozen or terminated
         "single-employer plan," within the meaning of Section 4001 (a)(15) of
         ERISA, currently or formerly maintained by any of them, or the
         single-employer plan of any entity which is considered one employer
         with the Company under Section 4001 of ERISA or Section 414 of the Code
         (an "ERISA AFFILIATE"). Neither the Company, any of its Subsidiaries
         nor an ERISA Affiliate has contributed to a Multiemployer Plan, at any
         time on or after September 26, 1980. No notice of a "reportable event,"
         within the meaning of Section 4043 of ERISA for which the 30-day
         reporting requirement has not been waived, has been required to be
         filed for any Plan which is an "employee pension benefit plan" within
         the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA ("PENSION PLAN") or by any ERISA
         Affiliate within the 12-month period ending on the date hereof;

                  (c) neither any Pension Plan nor any single-employer plan of
         an ERISA Affiliate has an "accumulated funding deficiency" (whether or
         not waived) within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section
         302 of ERISA and no ERISA Affiliate has an outstanding funding waiver.
         Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has provided, or is
         required to provide, security to any Pension Plan or to any
         single-employer plan of an ERISA Affiliate pursuant to Section
         401(a)(29) of the Code;

                  (d) under each Pension Plan which is a single-employer plan,
         as of the last day of the most recent plan year ended prior to the date
         hereof, the actuarially determined present value of all "benefit
         liabilities," within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(16) of ERISA (as

                                      -41-
<PAGE>

         determined on the basis of the actuarial assumptions contained in the
         Plan's most recent actuarial valuation), did not exceed the then
         current value of the assets of such Plan, and there has been no
         material change in the financial condition of such Plan since the last
         day of the most recent plan year; and

                  (e) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any
         obligations for retiree health and life benefits under any Plan, except
         as required by applicable law. The Company or the Subsidiaries, as
         applicable, may amend or terminate any such Plan at any time without
         incurring any liability thereunder.

        SECTION 4.13. PRIVATE OFFERING; NO INTEGRATION OR GENERAL SOLICITATION.

                  (a) Subject to compliance by the Purchasers with the
         representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 hereof, it is not
         necessary in connection with the offer, sale and delivery of the
         Purchased Securities to the Purchasers in the manner contemplated by
         this Agreement to register the Securities under the Securities Act.

                  (b) No Issuer has, directly or indirectly, offered, sold or
         solicited any offer to buy, and no Issuer will, directly or indirectly,
         offer, sell or solicit any offer to buy, any security of a type or in a
         manner which would be integrated with the sale of the Securities and
         require the Securities to be registered under the Securities Act. None
         of the Company, its Affiliates or any person acting on its or any of
         their behalf (other than the Purchasers, as to whom the Issuers make no
         representation or warranty) has engaged or will engage in any form of
         general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Rule
         502(c) under the Securities Act) in connection with the offering of the
         Purchased Securities.

                  SECTION 4.14. ELIGIBILITY FOR RESALE UNDER RULE 144A. The
Notes are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A and will not, at the Closing
Time, be of the same class as securities listed on a national securities
exchange registered under Section 6 of the Exchange Act or quoted on a U.S.
automated interdealer quotation system.

                  SECTION 4.15. STATUS UNDER CERTAIN STATUTES. Neither the

Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended ("PUHCA"), the Federal Power Act
or the Interstate Commerce Act, each as amended, (b) an "investment company"
registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, or controlled by such a company, or (c) a "holding company,"
or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company," or an "affiliate" of a
"holding company" or of a "subsidiary" of a "holding company," within the
meaning of PUHCA.

                  SECTION 4.16. INSURANCE. Each of the Company and its
Subsidiaries is insured by financially sound institutions with policies in such
amounts and with such deductibles and covering such risks as are generally
deemed adequate for their businesses including, but not limited to, policies
covering real and personal property owned or leased by the Company and its
Subsidiaries against theft, damage, destruction and acts of vandalism.

                  SECTION 4.17. USE OF PROCEEDS; MARGIN REGULATIONS. The Company
will apply approximately $30.4 million of proceeds from the sale of the
Purchased Securities to the purchase price for the Acquisition, approximately
$1.6 million to pay fees and expenses relating to the Transactions and will at
the Closing Time deposit approximately $9.5 million into an account for which a
Control Agreement (as defined in the Security Agreement) has been delivered to
the Agent in accordance with the Security Agreement which funds will be
available for general working capital purposes. No part of the proceeds from the
sale of the Purchased Securities hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly,
for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of
Regulation U, or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any
securities. Margin stock does not constitute more than 5% of the value of the
consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company has no
present intention that margin stock will constitute more than 5% of the value of
such assets. As used in this Section, the terms "margin stock" and "purpose of
buying or carrying" shall have the meanings assigned to them in Regulation U.

                  SECTION 4.18. EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS; FUTURE LIENS. SCHEDULE
4.18 sets forth a complete and correct list of all Indebtedness of the Company
and its Subsidiaries that will be outstanding immediately after the consummation
of the Transactions except for any such Indebtedness not so scheduled which, in
the aggregate, does not exceed $50,000. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
of the Company is in default, and no waiver of default is currently in effect,
in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Indebtedness of the
Company or such Subsidiary and no event or condition exists with respect to any
Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company that would permit
(or that with notice, lapse of time or both, would permit) any Person to cause
such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its Stated Maturity or before
its regularly scheduled dates of payment. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has agreed or consented to cause or permit in the future (upon the
happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property or assets, whether
now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien that would be
prohibited by this Agreement if incurred after the first issuance of Notes.

Adverse Effect, (c) all past Environmental Actions against the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or any of their properties have been resolved without ongoing

of their properties or (ii) cause any such properties to be subject to any
restrictions on ownership, occupancy, use or transferability under any
Environmental Law, (d) (i) none of the properties currently or, to the knowledge

are sufficient to effect the transactions purported to be effected by such
agreements, instruments and documents and to perfect the Liens or security
interests purported to be created by such agreements, instruments and documents,
except for failures to effect such transactions or perfect such security

         times by financially sound and reputable insurers; maintain such other
         insurance, to such extent and against such risks as is customary with
         companies in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or
         similar locations, including insurance with respect to Mortgaged
         Properties and other properties material to the business of the Company
         and its Subsidiaries against such casualties and contingencies and of
         such types and in such amounts with such deductibles as is customary in

         locations, including (i) physical hazard insurance on an "all risk"
         basis, (ii) commercial general liability against claims for bodily
         injury, death or property damage covering any and all insurable claims,

         similar apparatus constituting Collateral, (iv) business interruption
         insurance, (v) worker's compensation insurance and such other insurance
         as may be required by any Requirement of Law and (vi) such other

         require (such policies to be in such form and amounts and having such
         coverage as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders and
         the Agent); PROVIDED that with respect to physical hazard insurance,
         neither the Agent nor the Company or such Subsidiary shall agree to the
         adjustment of any claim thereunder without the consent of the other
         (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); PROVIDED,
         FURTHER, that no consent of the Company or any Subsidiary shall be
         required during an Event of Default.

                  (b) REQUIREMENTS OF INSURANCE. All such insurance in the name
         of any Issuer shall (i) provide that no cancellation, material
         reduction in amount or material change in coverage thereof shall be

                                      -56-
<PAGE>

         effective until at least 30 days after receipt by the Agent of written
         notice thereof, (ii) name the Agent as mortgagee (in the case of
         property insurance for Mortgaged Property) or additional insured on
         behalf of the Secured Parties (in the case of liability insurance) or
         loss payee (in the case of property insurance for Mortgaged Property),
         as applicable, (iii) if reasonably requested by the Agent, include a
         breach of warranty clause and (iv) be reasonably satisfactory in all
         other respects to the Agent.

                  (c) NOTICE TO AGENTS. The Company shall notify the Noteholders
         and the Agent immediately whenever any separate insurance concurrent in
         form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be
         maintained under this Section 7.07 is taken out by the Company or any
         of its subsidiaries; and promptly deliver to the Noteholders and the
         Agent a duplicate original copy of such policy or policies.

                  (d) FLOOD INSURANCE. The Company shall, and shall cause its
         Subsidiaries to, with respect to each Mortgaged Property, obtain flood
         insurance in such total amount as the Required Holders may from time to
         time require, if at any time the area in which any improvements located
         on any Mortgaged Property is designated a "flood hazard area" in any
         Flood Insurance Rate Map published by the Federal Emergency Management
         Agency (or any successor agency), and otherwise comply with the
         National Flood Insurance Program as set forth in the Flood Disaster
         Protection Act of 1973, as amended from time to time.

                  (e) BROKER'S REPORT. The Company shall deliver to the Agent
         and the Noteholders a report of a reputable insurance broker with
         respect to such insurance and such supplemental reports with respect
         thereto as the Required Holders or the Agent may from time to time
         reasonably request.

                  (f) MORTGAGED PROPERTIES. No Issuer that is an owner of
         Mortgaged Property shall take any action that is reasonably likely to
         be the basis for termination, revocation or denial of any insurance
         coverage required to be maintained under such Issuer's respective
         Mortgage or that could be the basis for a defense to any claim under
         any Insurance Policy maintained in respect of the Premises, and each
         Issuer shall otherwise comply in all material respects with all
         Insurance Requirements in respect of the Premises; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
         that each Issuer may, at its own expense and after written notice to
         the Noteholders, (i) contest the applicability or enforceability of any
         such Insurance Requirements by appropriate legal proceedings, the
         prosecution of which does not constitute a basis for cancellation or
         revocation of any insurance coverage required under this Section 7.07
         or (ii) cause the Insurance Policy containing any such Insurance
         Requirement to be replaced by a new policy complying with the
         provisions of this Section 7.07.

         thereof) of each Noteholder's Notes at an offer price in cash equal to
         100% of the principal amount thereof as of the Change of Control

         (and in any event within 30 Business Days after the acquisition
         thereof) (i) execute and deliver to the Noteholders and the Agent such
         amendments or supplements to the relevant Security Documents or such
         other documents as the Required Holders or the Agent shall deem

         Business Days after such person becomes a Wholly Owned Subsidiary), the
         Company shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to promptly (i) deliver

         compatible with the laws of such Foreign Subsidiary's jurisdiction in
         form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, and (B) to
         take all actions necessary or advisable in the opinion of the Required

         of the Company of at least $500,000, and (ii) unless the Required
         Holders otherwise consent, each leased Real Property of such Issuer

         faith estimate of the Company of at least $500,000,(2) in each case, as
         additional security for the Secured Obligations (unless the subject
         property is already mortgaged to a third party to the extent permitted

         satisfactory to the Required Holders and the Agent) in respect of such
         Mortgage).

                  (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Designation;
         and

                  (ii) the Company would be permitted to make an Investment at
         the time of Designation (assuming the effectiveness of such
         Designation) pursuant to clause (e) of the definition of "Permitted
         Investments" in an amount (the "DESIGNATION AMOUNT") equal to the Fair

thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its final scheduled maturity upon
the occurrence of a default with respect to any Indebtedness of any Unrestricted
Subsidiary (including any right to take enforcement action against such
Unrestricted Subsidiary). All Subsidiaries of Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall
automatically be deemed to be Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

                  The Company may revoke any Designation of a Subsidiary as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary (a "REVOCATION") if

                  (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
         be continuing at the time of and after giving effect to such
         Revocation;

                                      -63-
<PAGE>

                  (iv) all Liens and Indebtedness of such Unrestricted
         Subsidiary outstanding immediately following such Revocation would, if
         incurred at such time, have been permitted to be incurred for all
         purposes of this Agreement; and

                  (v) any transaction (or series of related transactions)
         between such Subsidiary and any of its Affiliates that is still
         outstanding, or otherwise could have a future adverse effect on such

         8.06 hereof as if such transaction (or series of related transactions)
         had occurred at the time of such Revocation.

                  All Designations and Revocations must be evidenced by
resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company delivered to each
Noteholder certifying compliance with the foregoing provisions.

                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company
may not designate any given Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary more than
once.

                  SECTION 8.04. INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF
PREFERRED STOCK.

                  (a) The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any
of the Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume, issue,
guarantee or in any manner become liable for or with respect to, contingently or
otherwise (in each case, to "INCUR"), the payment of, any Indebtedness
(including any Acquired Indebtedness) or issue any Preferred Stock, PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Company and, to the extent specifically set forth below, the

(collectively, "PERMITTED Indebtedness"):

                  (i) Indebtedness of the Company or the SPV under the SPV
         Financing Agreement in an aggregate principal amount at any one time
         outstanding not to exceed $49.0 million, less (x) any mandatory

         Proceeds of any Asset Sale or Casualty Event;

                  (ii) Subordinated Indebtedness or Preferred Stock of the
         Company or any Guarantor in an aggregate principal amount or
         liquidation value at any one time outstanding not to exceed
         $10,000,000; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if after giving effect to the
         incurrence of any such Indebtedness or Preferred Stock the Company's
         Incurrence Ratio would exceed 2.25 to 1.0 then prior to the incurrence
         of any such Indebtedness or the issuance of any such Preferred Stock,
         the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have first
         complied with the right of first offer provisions of clause (c) below;

                  (iii) Indebtedness of the Company pursuant to the Notes and
         Indebtedness of any Guarantor pursuant to a Subsidiary Guarantee of the

                  (iv) Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary outstanding
         at the Closing Time, except Indebtedness to be repaid in connection
         with the Transactions;

                  (v) Indebtedness of the Company owing to a Wholly Owned
         Subsidiary for so long as such Indebtedness is owing to a Wholly Owned
         Subsidiary; PROVIDED that any Indebtedness of the Company to any Wholly

                                      -70-
<PAGE>

         Owned Subsidiary is Subordinated Indebtedness, pursuant to a written
         agreement, to the Company's obligations under this Agreement and the
         Notes; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that disposition, pledge or transfer of any
         such Indebtedness to a Person (other than a disposition, pledge or
         transfer to a Wholly Owned Subsidiary) shall be deemed to be an
         incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company not permitted by this
         clause (v);

                  (vi) Indebtedness of a Wholly Owned Subsidiary owing to and
         held by the Company or another Wholly Owned Subsidiary which is
         unsecured; PROVIDED that (a) any disposition, pledge or transfer of any
         such Indebtedness to a Person (other than the Company or a Wholly Owned
         Subsidiary) shall be deemed to be an incurrence of such Indebtedness by
         the obligor not permitted by this clause (vi), and (b) any transaction
         pursuant to which any Wholly Owned Subsidiary, which has Indebtedness
         owing to the Company or any other Wholly Owned Subsidiary, ceases to be
         a Wholly Owned Subsidiary shall be deemed to be the incurrence of
         Indebtedness by such Wholly Owned Subsidiary that is not permitted by
         this clause (vi); PROVIDED, FURTHER, that if such Indebtedness is
         incurred by a non-Guarantor (other than Terremark Latin America
         (Brasil) Ltda. or any future Wholly Owned Subsidiary that is a Foreign
         Subsidiary) then such incurrence must also comply with clause (e) of
         the definition of "Permitted Investments";

                  (vii) the incurrence by the Company or any Subsidiary of the
         Company of Hedging Obligations that are incurred in the ordinary course
         of business of the Company or such Subsidiary or the SPV Financing
         Agreement as in effect on the date hereof and not for speculative
         purposes; PROVIDED that, in the case of any Hedging Obligation that
         relates to (i) interest rate risk, the notional principal amount of
         such Hedging Obligation does not exceed the principal amount of the
         Indebtedness to which such Hedging Obligation related and (ii) currency
         risk, such Hedging Obligation does not increase the Indebtedness of the
         Company and its Subsidiaries outstanding other than as a result of
         fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates or by reason of fees,
         indemnities and compensation payable thereunder;

                  (viii) Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary
         represented by Capitalized Lease Obligations or Purchase Money
         Obligations or other Indebtedness incurred or assumed in connection
         with the acquisition or development of real or personal movable or
         immovable property in each case incurred for the purpose of financing
         or refinancing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of
         construction or improvement of property used in the business of the
         Company or such Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount pursuant
         to this clause (viii) not to exceed $20.0 million at any one time
         outstanding; PROVIDED that no more than $2.5 million of such
         Indebtedness may be at any one time outstanding at Subsidiaries that
         are not Guarantors; PROVIDED that the principal amount of any
         Indebtedness permitted under this clause (viii) did not in each case at
         the time of incurrence exceed the Fair Market Value, as determined by
         the Company or such Subsidiary in good faith, of the property to which
         it relates; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that any such Indebtedness permitted
         under this clause (viii) is either (A) Subordinated Indebtedness or (B)

                                      -71-
<PAGE>

         with respect to any real or personal property other than the specific
         property being financed or refinanced, secured by a Lien which is
         junior to the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents;

                  (ix) letters of credit to support workers compensation
         obligations and bankers acceptances and performance bonds, surety bonds
         and performance guarantees of the Company or any Guarantor, in each
         case, in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice,
         not to exceed $2.5 million in the aggregate at any time outstanding;

                  (x) Preferred Stock of NAP Madrid issued to the Company or any
         Guarantor in consideration for the transfer of assets set forth on
         Schedule B to NAP Madrid in accordance with Section 7.19; PROVIDED that
         all shares of such Preferred Stock that are required to be pledged
         pursuant to Section 7.13(b) shall have been pledged as Collateral;

                  (xi) the Company's guarantee, in an amount not to
         exceed (Euro)475,000, of the lease to be transferred by TerreNAP Data
         Centers, Inc. to NAP Madrid in accordance with Section 7.19; and

                  (xii) any renewals, extensions, substitutions, refundings,
         refinancings or replacements (collectively, a "REFINANCING") of any
         Indebtedness described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above,
         including any successive refinancings so long as the aggregate
         principal amount of Indebtedness represented thereby is not increased
         by such refinancing plus the lesser of (I) the stated amount of any
         premium or other payment required to be paid in connection with such a
         refinancing pursuant to the terms of the Indebtedness being refinanced
         or (II) the amount of premium or other payment actually paid at such
         time to refinance the Indebtedness, plus, in either case, the amount of
         expenses of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company incurred in
         connection with such refinancing and (A) in the case of any refinancing
         of Indebtedness that is Subordinated Indebtedness, such new
         Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes at least to the same extent
         as the Indebtedness being refinanced and (B) such refinancing does not
         reduce the Average Life to Stated Maturity or the Stated Maturity of
         such Indebtedness.

                  (b) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section
8.04, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than
one of the categories of Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (x) of
the immediately preceding paragraph (a), the Company shall, in its sole
discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with
this Section 8.04 and will only be required to include the amount and type of
such Indebtedness in one of such clauses. Accrual of interest, accretion of
accreted value and the payment of interest through the issuance of securities
paid-in-kind shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for
purposes of this Section 8.04.

                  (c) If in accordance with clause (a)(ii) above, this clause
(c) shall be applicable, the Company or the applicable Guarantor shall comply
with the following provisions:

                  (i) If the Company or any Guarantor proposes to incur any
         Indebtedness and/or issue any Preferred Stock pursuant to clause (a)(i)
         above then prior to any such incurrence or issuance the Company or the
         applicable Guarantor will deliver by fax or hand delivery a notice
         ("RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER NOTICE") to each Noteholder stating (i) its bona

                                      -72-
<PAGE>

         fide intention to incur such Indebtedness and/or issue such Preferred
         Stock, (ii) the principal amount of the Indebtedness or the number of
         shares of Preferred Stock to be offered and (iii) the terms upon which
         it proposes to incur such Indebtedness or issue such Preferred Stock.

                  (ii) By written notification received by the Company, within
         fifteen (15) days after the Company gives the Right of First Offer
         Notice, each Noteholder may elect to purchase, upon the same terms as
         the proposed purchaser(s) propose(s) to purchase such Indebtedness
         and/or Preferred Stock, up to that portion of such Indebtedness and/or
         Preferred Stock which equals the percentage of all outstanding Notes
         held by such Noteholder; PROVIDED HOWEVER that if one or more
         Noteholders do not purchase the entire amount of Indebtedness or
         Preferred Stock offered to them then each remaining Noteholder shall
         have the right to purchase such additional amounts as it may desire (on
         a proportionate basis to the extent necessary). If all of the
         Indebtedness and/or Preferred Stock that the Company or such Guarantor
         proposes to offer pursuant to this clause (c) is not elected to be
         purchased by the Noteholders as provided herein, the Noteholders may,
         during the ten (10) day period following the expiration of the fifteen
         (15) day period provided in the first sentence of this subclause (ii),
         find a third-party investor to buy the remaining unsubscribed portion
         of such Indebtedness and/or Preferred Stock. If all of the Indebtedness
         and/or Preferred Stock that the Company or such Guarantor proposes to
         offer pursuant to this clause (c) is not elected to be purchased by the
         Noteholders and such third party, the Company or the applicable
         Guarantor may, during the sixty (60) day period following the
         expiration of the ten (10) day period provided in the immediately
         preceding sentence, sell all of such Indebtedness and/or Preferred
         Stock to third-party investors pursuant to subclause (i) above upon
         terms that are not materially different from those made available to
         the Noteholders. If the Company does not, within such sixty (60) day
         period, consummate such sale to such third-party investors or if such
         sale is not on terms that are not materially different from those
         offered to the Noteholders, then prior to any subsequent sale of such
         Indebtedness and/or Preferred Stock the Company or such applicable
         Guarantor must comply with the provisions of this clause (c).

        SECTION 8.05. ASSET SALES.

                  (a) The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any
Subsidiary of the Company to, directly or indirectly, consummate an Asset Sale;
unless (i) at least 85% of the consideration from such Asset Sale is received in
cash and (ii) the Company or such Subsidiary receives consideration at the time
of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares or
assets subject to such Asset Sale; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the amount of (x) any
liabilities (as shown on the Company's or such Subsidiary's most recent balance
sheet) of the Company or any Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and
liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee
thereof) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to any
arrangement releasing the Company or such Subsidiary from further liability and
(y) any notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such
Subsidiary from such transferee that are immediately converted by the Company or
such Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received), shall be deemed
to be cash for purposes of this provision.

                                      -73-
<PAGE>

                  (b) Within 270 days after the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds
from an Asset Sale, the Company may apply such Net Cash Proceeds (i) in the case
of any Asset Sale of property or assets of the SPV only, to permanently reduce
Indebtedness under the SPV Financing Agreement (and to correspondingly reduce
commitments with respect thereto) or (ii) to fund the acquisition of a
controlling interest in another business, the making of a capital expenditure or
the acquisition of other long term assets, in each case, in the same or a
similar, related or ancillary line of business as the Company was engaged in on
the date of this Agreement. Any Net Cash Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not
applied or invested as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be
deemed to constitute "EXCESS PROCEEDS." When the aggregate amount of Excess
Proceeds exceeds $500,000, the Company shall make an Asset Sale Offer pursuant
to Section 7.09 hereof to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes, that
may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an
amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the Applicable
Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase, in
accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.09 hereof. To the extent
that the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale
Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess
Proceeds for general corporate purposes. Subject to the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreement, any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale involving
Collateral shall, pending their application in accordance with the terms hereof,
be deposited in a collateral account with the Agent in which the Agent shall be
granted a perfected first priority security interest, and the terms of which

for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company or of a Subsidiary (other than
the Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary) or any beneficial holder of 10% or
more of any class of Capital Stock of the Company or any officer, director or
employee of the Company or any Subsidiary unless such transaction or series of
related transactions is entered into in good faith and in writing and (a) such
transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or such
Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that would be available in a
comparable transaction in arm's-length dealings with an unrelated third party,
(b) with respect to any transaction or series of related transactions involving
aggregate value in excess of $1.0 million, the Company delivers to each
Noteholder an Officers' Certificate describing such transaction or transactions,
certifying that such transaction or transactions have been approved by a
majority of the Board of Directors of the Company as well as a majority of the

a financial point of view; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this provision shall not
apply to (i) any transaction with an officer or director of the Company (acting

any thereof, except the following (collectively, the "PERMITTED LIENS"):

         charges or levies not yet due and payable or delinquent and Liens for
         taxes, assessments or governmental charges or levies, which (i) are
         being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings which
         proceedings (or orders entered in connection with such proceedings)
         have the effect of preventing the forfeiture or sale of the property
         subject to any such Lien (and for which adequate reserves have been
         established in accordance with GAAP), or (ii) in the case of any such
         charge or claim which has or may become a Lien against any of the
         Collateral, such Lien and the contest thereof shall satisfy the
         Contested Collateral Lien Conditions;

                  (b) Liens in respect of property of the Company or any of its
         Subsidiaries imposed by Requirements of Law, which were incurred in the
         ordinary course of business and do not secure Indebtedness for borrowed
         money, such as carriers', warehousemen's, materialmen's, landlords',
         workmen's, suppliers', repairmen's and mechanics' Liens and other
         similar Liens arising in the ordinary course of business, and (i) which
         do not in the aggregate materially detract from the value of the

         not materially impair the use thereof in the operation of the business
         of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (ii) which, if
         they secure obligations that are then due and unpaid, are being
         contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings for which adequate

         proceedings (or orders entered in connection with such proceedings)
         have the effect of preventing the forfeiture or sale of the property
         subject to any such Lien, and (iii) in the case of any such Lien which
         has or may become a Lien against any of the Collateral, such Lien and
         the contest thereof shall satisfy the Contested Collateral Lien
         Conditions;

                                      -75-
<PAGE>

         does not secure an aggregate amount of Indebtedness, if any, greater
         than that secured on the Closing Time and (ii) does not encumber any
         property other than the property subject thereto on the Closing Time
         (any such Lien, an "EXISTING LIEN");

         hereafter in existence, not (i) securing Indebtedness, (ii)
         individually or in the aggregate materially impairing the value or
         marketability of such Real Property or (iii) individually or in the
         aggregate materially interfering with the ordinary conduct of the
         business of the Company and its Subsidiaries at such Real Property;

                  (e) Liens arising out of judgments, attachments or awards not
         resulting in a Default and in respect of which the Company or such
         Subsidiary shall in good faith be prosecuting an appeal or proceedings
         for review in respect of which there shall be secured a subsisting stay
         of execution pending such appeal or proceedings and, in the case of any

         premiums to insurance carriers; PROVIDED that (i) with respect to
         clauses (x), (y) and (z) of this paragraph (f), such Liens are for
         amounts not yet due and payable or delinquent or, to the extent such
         amounts are so due and payable, such amounts are being contested in
         good faith by appropriate proceedings for which adequate reserves have

         preventing the forfeiture or sale of the property subject to any such
         Lien, (ii) to the extent such Liens are not imposed by Requirements of
         Law, such Liens shall in no event encumber any property other than cash

         the aggregate, (i) interfere in any material respect with the ordinary

                                      -76-
<PAGE>

         conduct of the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or

         securing amounts owing to such bank with respect to cash management and
         operating account arrangements, including those involving pooled
         accounts and netting arrangements; PROVIDED that, unless such Liens are
         non-consensual and arise by operation of law, in no case shall any such

         Indebtedness;

                  (j) Liens on property of a person existing at the time such
         person is acquired or merged with or into or consolidated with the

         that such Liens do not extend to property not subject to such Liens at

         the Secured Obligations;

         modifications or waivers of any provision thereof since the date of
         this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent;
         PROVIDED, FURTHER, that any increase in the scope of the collateral to

         Section 8.04(a)(viii), so long as such Liens, to the extent covering
         any Collateral other than the specific property being financed or
         refinanced, are junior to the Liens granted pursuant to the Security
         Documents;

                  SECTION 9.06. REGISTRATION; REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND
EXCHANGE.

                  (a) SECURITY REGISTER. The Company shall maintain a register
(the "SECURITY REGISTER") for the registration or transfer of the Notes. The
name and address of the Noteholder of each Note, records of any transfers of the
Notes and the name and address of any transferee of a Note shall be entered in
the Security Register and the Company shall, promptly upon receipt thereof,
update the Security Register to reflect all information received from a
Noteholder. There shall be no more than one Noteholder for each Note, including
all beneficial interests therein.

                  (b) REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER. Upon surrender for registration
of transfer of any Note properly endorsed for transfer at the office or agency
of the Company, the Company shall execute and deliver, in the name of the

exchanged for other Notes, of any authorized denominations and of like aggregate
principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or
agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall
execute and deliver the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled
to receive.

                  (d) EFFECT OF REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER OR EXCHANGE. All Notes
issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid

for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the
Company) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer

registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Company may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any Tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of
Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 8.10 not involving any transfer.

                  (f) CERTAIN LIMITATIONS. If the Notes are to be redeemed in
part, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of
or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
Business Days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of any
such Notes selected for redemption under Section 11.02 and ending at the close
of business on the Business Day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the
transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part,
except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

                  SECTION 9.07. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.

                  (a) No Note may be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of

"SALE"), except in compliance with this Section 9.07.

                  (b) A Noteholder may sell Notes to a transferee that is an
Accredited Investor or a Qualified Institutional Buyer; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
each of the following conditions is satisfied:

                  (i) such Noteholder or transferee represents that it is
         acquiring the Note or Notes for its own account and that it is not
         acquiring such Note or Notes with a view to, or for offer or sale in
         connection with, any distribution thereof (within the meaning of the
         Securities Act) that would be in violation of the securities laws of
         the United States or any state thereof, but subject, nevertheless, to
         the disposition of its property being at all times within its control;
         and

                                      -83-
<PAGE>

                  (ii) such transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of
         this Section 9.07 with respect to any resale of the Notes.

                  (c) A Noteholder may sell its Notes to a transferee in
accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
each of the following conditions is satisfied:

                  (i) the offer of Notes is not made to a person in the United
         States;

                  (ii) either:

                  (A) at the time the buy order is originated, the transferee is
         outside the United States or the Noteholder and any person acting on
         its behalf reasonably believes that the transferee is outside the
         United States, or

                  (B) the transaction is executed in, on or through the
         facilities of a designated offshore securities market and neither the
         Noteholder nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the
         transaction was pre-arranged with a buyer in the United States;

                  (iii) no directed selling efforts are made in contravention of
         the requirements of Rule 903(b) or 904(b) of Regulation S under the
         Securities Act, as applicable; and

                  (iv) the transaction is not part of a plan or scheme to evade
         the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

                  (d) In the event of a proposed exercise or sale that does not
qualify under either Section 9.07(b) or 9.07(c) above, a Noteholder may sell its
Notes only if:

                  (i) such Noteholder gives written notice to the Company of its
         intention to exercise or effect such sale, which notice (A) shall
         describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed transaction in
         reasonable detail and (B) shall designate the counsel for such
         Noteholder, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
         Company;

                  (ii) counsel for the Noteholder shall render an opinion to the
         effect that such proposed sale may be effected without registration
         under the Securities Act; and

                  (iii) such Noteholder or transferee complies with Sections
         9.07(b)(i) and 9.07(b)(ii).

                  SECTION 9.08. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN NOTES. If
any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Company, the Company shall execute and
deliver in exchange therefor a new Note of the same principal amount and bearing
a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

                  If there shall be delivered to the Company (a) evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (b) such security
or indemnity as may be required by the Company to save each of it and any agent
harmless, then, in the absence of notice that such Note has been acquired by a

                                      -84-
<PAGE>

bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of any such
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of a like principal amount and
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

                  In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has
become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

                  Upon the issuance of any new Note pursuant to this Section,
the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any Tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses connected therewith.

                  Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any
destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or
stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to
all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all
other Notes duly issued hereunder.

                  The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall
preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to
the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

                  SECTION 9.09. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. Prior to due presentment
of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company and any agent of the Company
shall treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered as the owner of
such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on
such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be
overdue and neither the Company nor any agent of the Company shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.

                  SECTION 9.10. CANCELLATION. All Notes surrendered for payment,
redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Company, be delivered to the Company and shall be promptly
canceled by it. The Company shall cancel any Notes previously issued and
delivered hereunder which the Company may have reacquired.

                  SECTION 9.11. HOME OFFICE PAYMENT. So long as any Purchaser or
its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything
contained in this Agreement or such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay
all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, premium, if any, and interest
by such method and at such address as such Purchaser shall have from time to
time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the
presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon,
except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or
reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such
Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation reasonably promptly after
any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office. Prior to any
sale or other disposition of any Note held by such Purchaser or its nominee such

                                      -85-
<PAGE>

Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal
paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or
surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant
to Section 9.06. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 9.11 to
any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note
purchased by such Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same
agreement relating to such Note as such Purchaser made in this Section 9.11.

                  SECTION 10.02. REMEDIES. If an Event of Default (other than an
Event of Default specified in Section 10.01(h) or 10.01(i)) occurs and is
continuing, then and in every such case the Noteholders of 25% or more in
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal amount
of all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to
the Company, and upon any such declaration such principal amount and any accrued
interest shall become immediately due and payable. For the avoidance of doubt,
if any Payment Default or acceleration that constitutes an Event of Default
under Section 10.01(f) shall have occurred and prior to any acceleration under

                                      -88-
<PAGE>

this Section 10.02 such Payment Default shall have been cured or waived or such
acceleration shall have been rescinded, then from and after such cure, waiver or
rescission, such Event of Default shall no longer be deemed to be continuing. If
an Event of Default specified in Section 10.01(h) or 10.01(i) occurs and is
continuing, the principal amount of and any accrued interest on the outstanding
Notes shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the
part of any Noteholder, become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the right of any Noteholder to receive payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest of any Note held by such Noteholder on or after the
respective dates expressed in such Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of
any such repayment on or after such respective date, is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such
Noteholder.

                  If an Event of Default occurs by reason of any willful action
(or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries with the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the
Company would have had to pay if the Company then had elected to optionally
redeem the Notes pursuant to Paragraph 3 of the Notes, then, upon acceleration
of the Notes, the Applicable Premium shall also become and be immediately due
and payable, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, anything in this
Agreement or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding.

                  At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been
made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained, the Required Holders, by written notice to the Company, may rescind
and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

                  (a) the Company has paid a sum sufficient to pay:

                           (i) all overdue interest on all Notes;

                           (ii) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any
                  Notes which have become due otherwise than by such declaration
                  of acceleration (including any Notes required to have been
                  purchased pursuant to an offer to purchase that the Company is
                  required to make hereunder) and any interest thereon at the
                  rate borne by the Notes; and

                           (iii) to the extent that payment of such interest is
                  lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate provided
                  therefor in the Notes; and

                  (b) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the
         principal amount of Notes and interest thereon which have become due
         solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived
         as provided in Section 10.03.

         SECTION 10.03. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. The Required Holders may on
behalf of the Noteholders of all the Notes waive any past default hereunder and
its consequences, except a default:

                                      -89-
<PAGE>

                  (a) in the payment of the principal (or premium, if any) or
         interest on any Note (including any Note which is required to have been
         purchased pursuant to an offer to purchase that the Company is required
         to make hereunder), or

                  (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under
         Section 15.04 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
         Noteholder of each outstanding Note affected.

                  Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and
any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for
every purpose of this Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no such waiver shall extend
to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

                                   SECTION 11

                                   REDEMPTION

                  SECTION 11.01. RIGHT OF REDEMPTION. The Notes may be redeemed
at the election of the Company at such times, in such amounts and at the
Redemption Prices (together with any applicable accrued interest to the
Redemption Date) specified in the form of Note attached as EXHIBIT A hereto.

                  SECTION 11.02. PARTIAL REDEMPTIONS. In case the Company elects
to redeem less than all of the Notes, the Company shall redeem the Notes PRO
RATA from each Noteholder. For all purposes of this Agreement, unless the
context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Notes
shall relate, in the case of any Note redeemed or to be redeemed only in part,
to the portion of the principal amount of such Note which has been or is to be
redeemed.

                  SECTION 11.03. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption
shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor
more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Noteholder to be
redeemed, at its address appearing in the Security Register.

                  All notices of redemption shall state:

                  (a) the Redemption Date,

                  (b) the Redemption Price,

                  (c) if less than all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed,
         the portion of each Note to be redeemed,

                  (d) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will
         become due and payable upon each such Note to be redeemed and that
         interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, and

                                      -90-
<PAGE>

                  (e) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered
         for payment of the Redemption Price.

                  Notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed at the election
of the Company shall be given by the Company and at the expense of the Company.

                  SECTION 11.04. NOTES PAYABLE ON REDEMPTION DATE. If notice of
redemption shall have been given as provided above, the Notes to be redeemed
shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price
therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall
default in the payment of the Redemption Price and any applicable accrued
interest) such Notes shall not bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note
for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Note shall be paid by the
Company at the Redemption Price, together with any applicable accrued interest
to the Redemption Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that installments of interest whose
Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the
Noteholders of such Notes, or one or more Predecessor Notes, registered as such
at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms
and the provisions of this Agreement.

                  If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon
surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall,
until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate provided by the
Note.

                  SECTION 11.05. NOTES REDEEMED IN PART. Any Note which is to be
redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at the principal offices of the
Company (with, if the Company so requires, due endorsement by, or a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the
Noteholder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company
shall execute and deliver to the Noteholder of such Note without service charge,
a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such
Noteholder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the
unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered.

                                   SECTION 12

                              SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

                  SECTION 12.01. SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES. Each of the Guarantors
hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Noteholder,
irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes or
the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal
of and premium and interest on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when
due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and
interest on the overdue principal of (and any premium) and interest on the
Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the
Noteholders hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed,
all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any
extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other
obligations, that the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed
in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated
Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount
so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the
Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately.

                                      -91-
<PAGE>

The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the
Notes or this Agreement, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any
waiver or consent by any Noteholder with respect to any provisions hereof or
thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce
the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives
diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the
event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a
proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever
and covenants that this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this
Agreement.

                  If any Noteholder is required by any court or otherwise to
return to the Company or Guarantors, or any Custodian, trustee, liquidator or
other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or Guarantors,
any amount paid by such Noteholder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent
theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each
Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in
relation to the Noteholders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby
until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor
further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the
Noteholders, on the other hand, (a) the Maturity of the obligations guaranteed
hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 10 for the purposes of this
Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition
preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby and
(b) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as
provided in Section 10, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall
forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this
Subsidiary Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution
from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not
impair the rights of the Noteholders under the Subsidiary Guarantees.

                  SECTION 12.02. EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF SUBSIDIARY
GUARANTEES. To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01,
each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Agreement and a Subsidiary Guarantee in
the form of EXHIBIT B hereto shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by
its President or one of its Vice Presidents and, to the extent not a party to
this Agreement on the date hereof, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver to
the Noteholders a Subsidiary Guarantee in the form of EXHIBIT B hereto and a
supplemental agreement substantially in the form of EXHIBIT C hereto, pursuant
to which such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor under this Section 12 and
shall guarantee the Obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the
Notes. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such Subsidiary Guarantee
and such supplemental agreement, such Guarantor shall deliver to the Noteholders
an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers that the foregoing
have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Guarantor and that
such Guarantor's Subsidiary Guarantee is a valid and legally binding obligation
of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its
terms.

                                      -92-
<PAGE>

                  If an officer whose signature is on this Agreement or on a
Subsidiary Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Company
executes and delivers the Note on which a Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed, the
Subsidiary Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. The execution and delivery of
any Note by the Company shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary
Guarantee set forth in this Agreement on behalf of the Guarantors. Each
Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 12.01
shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on
each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee.

                  SECTION 12.03. GUARANTORS MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC. ON CERTAIN
TERMS. No Guarantor may consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not
such Guarantor is the surviving Person), another corporation, Person or entity
(other than the Company or another Guarantor) unless:

                  (a) subject to the provisions of Section 12.04 hereof, the
         Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if
         other than such Guarantor) unconditionally assumes all the obligations
         of such Guarantor under the Notes and this Agreement pursuant to a
         supplemental agreement, in the form of EXHIBIT C hereto; and

                  (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no
         Default or Event of Default exists.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Guarantor shall be permitted
to consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the
surviving Person), another corporation, Person or entity pursuant to the
preceding sentence if such consolidation or merger would not be permitted by
Section 8.10 hereof.

                  In case of any such consolidation or merger and upon the
assumption by the successor corporation, by supplemental agreement, executed and
delivered to the Noteholders and satisfactory in form to the Noteholders, of the
Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual
performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Agreement to be
performed by the Guarantor, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be
substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named
herein as a Guarantor. Such successor corporation thereupon may cause to be
signed any or all of the Subsidiary Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the
Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the
Company. All the Subsidiary Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the
same legal rank and benefit under this Agreement as the Subsidiary Guarantees
theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
as though all of such Subsidiary Guarantees had been issued at the date of the
execution hereof.

                  Except as set forth in Section 8 hereof, nothing contained in
this Agreement or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger
of a Guarantor with or into the Company, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance
of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to
the Company.

                  SECTION 12.04. RELEASES OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES. In the event
of (i) a sale or other disposition of all of the assets of any Guarantor, by way
of merger, consolidation or otherwise or (ii) a sale or other disposition of all
of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor, such Guarantor (in the event of a sale or

                                      -93-
<PAGE>

other disposition, by way of such a merger, consolidation, distribution or
otherwise, of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation
acquiring the property (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all of
the assets of such Guarantor) will be released and relieved of any obligations
under its Subsidiary Guarantee; PROVIDED that the net proceeds of such sale or
other disposition shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section
8.05 hereof. Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its
Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and
interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this
Agreement as provided in this Section 12.

                  SECTION 12.05. LIMITATION ON GUARANTOR LIABILITY. Each
Guarantor, and by its acceptance of the Notes, each Noteholder, hereby confirms
that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of
such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes
of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any
Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Noteholders and
the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor
under its Subsidiary Guarantee and this Section 12 shall be limited to the
maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other
contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such
laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive
contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in
respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Section 12, result
in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not
constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

                                   SECTION 13

           EXPENSES, INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION, AND TERMINATION

                  SECTION 13.01. EXPENSES. Whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated, the Issuers will pay all costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys', accountants', advisors', appraisers' and
consultants' fees and disbursements) incurred by the Purchasers, the Agent or
any Holder in connection with the Transactions and in connection with any
amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement, the other
Transaction Documents or the Securities (whether or not such amendment, waiver
or consent becomes effective), including, without limitation: (a) the
Purchasers' reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the Purchasers'
examinations and appraisals of the Issuers' properties, books and records, (b)
the Purchasers' reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the
preparation, review, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Transaction
Documents and the consummation of the Transactions, (c) the costs and expenses
incurred in enforcing, defending or declaring (or determining whether or how to
enforce, defend or declare) any rights or remedies under this Agreement, the

                                      -94-
<PAGE>

Transaction Documents or the Securities or in responding to any subpoena or
other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with
this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Securities, or by reason
of being a holder of any Securities, and (d) the costs and expenses, including
reasonable and documented consultants' and advisors' fees, incurred in
connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any Subsidiary of
the Company or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the
transactions contemplated hereby, by the other Transaction Documents or by the
Securities. The Company will pay, and will save the Purchasers, the Agent and
each other holder of a Purchased Security harmless from, all claims in respect
of any fees, costs or expenses if any, of brokers and finders in relation to the
Transactions.

                  SECTION 13.02. INDEMNIFICATION.

                  (a) INDEMNIFICATION BY THE ISSUERS. Each Issuer, jointly and
severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Purchaser, (ii) the
Agent, (iii) each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any such Person
referred to in clause (i) (any of the Persons referred to in this clause (iii)
being referred to herein as a "CONTROLLING PERSON") and (iv) the respective
officers, directors, managing directors, stockholders, partners, employees,
representatives, trustees, fiduciaries, and agents of any Person referred to in
clause (i) or any such Controlling Person (any such Person referred to in clause
(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), a "PURCHASER INDEMNIFIED PERSON") against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Purchaser
Indemnified Person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) in whole or in part upon any
inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties of the Issuers contained
herein, (ii) in whole or in part upon any failure of any Issuer to perform its
obligations hereunder or under Applicable Law, or (iii) any change in the
financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the
Company and its Subsidiaries during the period from the Audit Date to the
Closing Time, inclusive, that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or
would have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been disclosed in writing to
the Purchasers, and will reimburse each such Purchaser Indemnified Person for
any legal and other expenses incurred by such Purchaser Indemnified Person in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claims as such
expenses are incurred. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section
13.02(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Issuers may otherwise
have.

                  (b) NOTIFICATIONS AND OTHER INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES.
Promptly after receipt by a Purchaser Indemnified Person of notice of the
commencement of any action, such Purchaser Indemnified Person shall, if a claim
in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under Section
13.02(a), notify such indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof,
but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from
any liability which it may have to any Purchaser Indemnified Person otherwise
than under Section 13.02(a), or to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as
a proximate result of such failure. In case any such action is brought against
any Purchaser Indemnified Person and it shall notify an indemnifying party of
the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that it shall elect within 30 days after receiving
any such notification, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such
Purchaser Indemnified Person, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to
such Purchaser Indemnified Person of its election so to assume the defense

                                      -95-
<PAGE>

thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such Purchaser
Indemnified Person under such paragraph for any legal expenses of other counsel
or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Purchaser
Indemnified Person, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Purchaser Indemnified
Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at the expense of the Purchaser Indemnified Person unless (i) the
Purchaser Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that
representation of the Purchaser Indemnified Person by counsel provided by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting
interests between the indemnifying party and the Purchaser Indemnified Person,
including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses available to
the Purchaser Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnifying party shall have
authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the Purchaser Indemnified
Person at the expense of the indemnifying party or (iii) the indemnifying party
shall have failed to assume the defense or retain counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Purchaser Indemnified Person; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or
proceeding or separate but substantially similar actions or proceedings arising
out of the same general allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more
than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Purchaser Indemnified
Persons, except to the extent that local counsel, in addition to their regular
counsel, is required in order to effectively defend against such action or
proceeding. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the
Purchaser Indemnified Person, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent
to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action
or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought
hereunder (whether or not the Purchaser Indemnified Person is an actual or
potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or
judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the Purchaser Indemnified
Person from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not
include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to
act, by or on behalf of any Purchaser Indemnified Person.

                  SECTION 13.03. CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided
for in Section 13.02 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless a
Purchaser Indemnified Person under paragraph (a) or (b) of Section 13.02 in
respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such Purchaser Indemnified Person as a result of
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the (i) relative benefits received
by the Issuers on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other hand from the
issuance and sale of the Securities; or (ii) if the allocation provided in
clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the related benefits referred to in clause (i)
above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and
the Purchaser Indemnified Person on the other in connection with the statements
or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable

                                      -96-
<PAGE>

considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand
and the Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the sale of the
Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same
respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the
Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by
the Issuers and the total fees received by the Purchasers, bear to the aggregate
initial sale price of the Securities. The relative fault shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party on the one hand or the
Purchaser Indemnified Person on the other and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable
if contributions pursuant to this Section 13.03 were determined by PRO RATA
allocation (even if the Purchaser Indemnified Persons were treated as one entity
for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 13.03.

                  The obligations of the Issuers under this Section 13.03 shall
be in addition to any liability which the Issuers may otherwise have.

                  SECTION 13.04. SURVIVAL. The obligations of the Issuers under
this Section 13 will survive the payment or transfer of any Purchased Security,
the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the
termination of this Agreement.

                  SECTION 13.05. TERMINATION.

                  (a) The Purchasers may terminate this Agreement, by notice to
the Company, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time (i) if there has been,
since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the Audit Date, any
material adverse change in the business, management, operations, affairs,
condition (financial or otherwise) assets, property, prospects or results of
operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise,
whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there has
occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United
States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or
escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development
involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial
or economic conditions which, in each case, in the judgment of the Purchasers,
could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect or impair the
ability to sell or place securities such as the Securities, or (iii) if trading
in any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the
Commission or the American Stock Exchange, or if trading generally on the
American Stock Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange or in the Nasdaq National
Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices
for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by
any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any other governmental
authority, or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal
or New York authorities.

                  (b) LIABILITIES. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to
this Section 13.05, such termination shall be without liability of any party to
any other party except as provided in Section 13.01 hereof, PROVIDED that
Sections 1, 13.02, 13.03, 13.04, 14.08 and 14.12 shall survive such termination
and remain in full force and effect.

                  SECTION 14.01. APPOINTMENT. Each Noteholder hereby designates
and appoints FMP Agency Services, LLC as its agent under this Agreement and the
other Basic Documents, and each Noteholder hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent
to execute and deliver the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement, any
post-closing agreements and all other intercreditor agreements as Agent deems
appropriate and to take such action or to refrain from taking such action on its
behalf under the provisions of such agreements, this Agreement and the other
Basic Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each
Holder agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of each Basic Document
entered into by Agent on behalf of such Holder. Agent is authorized and
empowered to amend, modify or waive any provisions of this Agreement or the
other Basic Documents on behalf of the Noteholders subject to the requirement
that certain of the Noteholders' consent be obtained in certain instances as
provided in this Section 14.01 and Section 15.04. The provisions of this Section
14.01 are solely for the benefit of Agent and the Noteholders and neither the
Company nor any other Issuer shall have any rights as a third-party beneficiary
of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under
this Agreement, Agent shall act solely as agent of the Noteholders and does not
assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or
relationship of agency or trust with or for the Company or any other Issuer.
Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Basic Documents, by
or through its agents or employees.

                  SECTION 14.02. NATURE OF DUTIES. The duties of Agent shall be
mechanical and administrative in nature. Agent shall not have by reason of this
Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Noteholder. Nothing in this
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents, express or implied, is intended to or
shall be construed to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents except as expressly set forth herein or
therein. Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a
continuing basis, to provide any Noteholder with any credit or other information
with respect to the Issuers (other than as expressly required herein). If Agent
seeks the consent or approval of any Noteholders to the taking or refraining
from taking of any action hereunder, then Agent shall send notice thereof to
each Noteholder. Agent shall promptly notify each Noteholder any time that the
Required Holders have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant
hereto.

                  SECTION 14.03. RIGHTS, EXCULPATION, ETC. Neither Agent nor any
of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to any
Noteholder for any action taken or omitted by it hereunder or under any of the
Basic Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, except that Agent shall
be liable to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a final non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made
by it in good faith and if any such apportionment or distribution is
subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any
Noteholder to whom payment was due but not made shall be to recover from other
Noteholders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to
be entitled (and such other Noteholders hereby agree to return to such
Noteholder any such erroneous payments received by them). In no event shall

                                      -98-
<PAGE>

Agent be liable for punitive, special, consequential, incidental, exemplary or
other similar damages. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, Agent
shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with transactions for its
own account, but neither Agent nor any of its agents or representatives shall be
responsible to any Noteholder for any recitals, statements, representations or
warranties herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,
enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the
Basic Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the financial
condition of any Issuer. Agent shall not be required to make any inquiry
concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions
or conditions of this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or the financial
condition of any Issuer, or the existence or possible existence of any Default
or Event of Default. Agent may at any time request instructions from the
Required Holders or all affected Noteholders with respect to any actions or
approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Basic Documents
Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant. If such instructions are
promptly requested, Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking
any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability
whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any
approval under any of the Basic Documents until it shall have received such
instructions from the Required Holders or such other portion of the Noteholders
as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no
Noteholder shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result
of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the
other Basic Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required
Holders or all affected Noteholders, as applicable; and, notwithstanding the
instructions of Required Holders or all affected Noteholders, as applicable,
Agent shall have no obligation to take any action if it believes, in good faith,
that such action is deemed to be illegal by Agent or exposes Agent to any
liability for which it has not received satisfactory indemnification in
accordance with Section 14.05.

                  SECTION 14.04. RELIANCE. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any written or oral notices,
statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message or
other communication (including any writing, telex, fax or telegram) believed by
it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made
by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder,
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent
accountants and other experts selected by Agent in its sole discretion.

                  SECTION 14.05. INDEMNIFICATION. The Noteholders will reimburse
and indemnify Agent for and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses), advances or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent
under this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents, in proportion to each
Noteholder's Pro Rata Share, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is
not reimbursed by the Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Noteholder shall be
liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements
to the extent resulting from Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as

                                      -99-
<PAGE>

determined by a final non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction.
If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of
Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent may call for additional
indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against even if
so directed by the Required Holders or such other portion of the Noteholders as
shall be prescribed by this Agreement until such additional indemnity is
furnished. The obligations of the Noteholders under this Section 14.05 shall
survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this
Agreement.

                  SECTION 14.06. FMP AGENCY SERVICES, LLC INDIVIDUALLY. With
respect to its purchase of the Purchased Securities hereunder, Agent shall have
and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same
obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other
Noteholder. The terms "Noteholders," "Required Holders" or any similar terms
shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include FMP Agency
Services, LLC in its individual capacity as a Noteholder or one of the Required
Holders. Agent, either directly or through strategic affiliations, may lend
money to, acquire equity or other ownership interests in, provide advisory
services to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business
with any Issuer as if it were not acting as Agent pursuant hereto and without
any duty to account therefor to Noteholders. Agent, either directly or through
strategic affiliations, may accept fees and other consideration from any Issuer
for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to
account for the same to Noteholders.

                  SECTION 14.07. SUCCESSOR AGENT.

                  (a) RESIGNATION. Agent may resign from the performance of all
its agency functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty
(30) Business Days' prior written notice to the Company and the Noteholders.
Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor agent of
appointment pursuant to clause (ii) below or as otherwise provided in clause
(ii) below.

                  (b) APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR. Upon any such notice of
resignation pursuant to clause (a) above, the Required Holders shall appoint a
successor agent which, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. If a successor agent
shall not have been so appointed within the thirty (30) Business Day period
referred to in clause (a) above, the retiring agent, upon notice to the Company,
shall then appoint a successor agent who shall serve as agent until such time,
if any, as the Required Holders appoint a successor agent as provided above.

                  (c) SUCCESSOR AGENT. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as
agent under the Basic Documents by a successor agent, such successor agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring agent, and the retiring agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations under the Basic Documents. After any retiring
agent's resignation as agent, the provisions of this Section 14 shall continue
to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it in
its capacity as agent.

                  SECTION 14.08. COLLATERAL MATTERS.

                                     -100-
<PAGE>

                  (a) RELEASE OF COLLATERAL. The Noteholders hereby irrevocably
authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien
granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral (x) upon payment and
satisfaction of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification
obligations to the extent no claims giving rise thereto have been asserted), or
(y) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Company certifies to
Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the provisions of
this Agreement (and Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any such
certificate, without further inquiry).

                  (b) CONFIRMATION OF AUTHORITY; EXECUTION OF RELEASES. Without
in any manner limiting Agent's authority to act without any specific or further
authorization or consent by the Noteholders (as set forth in Section 14.08(a)),
each Noteholder agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Agent or the
Company, the authority to release any Collateral conferred upon Agent under
clauses (x), (y) and (z) of Section 14.08(a). Upon receipt by Agent of any
required confirmation from the Required Holders of its authority to release any
particular item or types of Collateral, and upon at least ten (10) Business
Days' prior written request by the Company, Agent shall (and is hereby
irrevocably authorized by the Noteholders to) execute such documents as may be
necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Agent upon such
Collateral; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (x) Agent shall not be required to execute
any such document on terms which, in Agent's opinion, would expose Agent to
liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the
release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (y) such release shall
not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon
(or obligations of any Issuer in respect of) all interests retained by any
Issuer, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to
constitute part of the Collateral.

                  (c) ABSENCE OF DUTY. Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever
to any Noteholder or any other Person to assure that the property covered by the
Security Documents exists or is owned by the Company or any other Issuer or is
cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted
to Agent have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected,
protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise
at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or
fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers
granted or available to Agent in this Section 14.08(c) or in any of the Basic
Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the property
covered by the Security Documents or any act, omission or event related thereto,
Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given
Agent's own interest in property covered by the Security Documents as one of the
Noteholders and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any of
the other Noteholders, provided that Agent shall exercise the same care which it
would in dealing with loans for its own account.

                  SECTION 14.09. AGENCY FOR PERFECTION. Agent and each
Noteholder hereby appoint each other Noteholder as agent for the purpose of
perfecting Agent's security interest in assets which, in accordance with the
Code in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected by possession or control.
Should any Noteholder (other than Agent) obtain possession or control of any
such assets, such Noteholder shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon
Agent's request therefor, shall deliver such assets to Agent or in accordance
with Agent's instructions or transfer control to Agent in accordance with

                                     -101-
<PAGE>

Agent's instructions. Each Noteholder agrees that it will not have any right
individually to enforce or seek to enforce any Security Document or to realize
upon any collateral security for the Notes and the Guarantees unless instructed
to do so by Agent in writing, it being understood and agreed that such rights
and remedies may be exercised only by Agent.

                  SECTION 14.10. NOTICE OF DEFAULT. Agent shall not be deemed to
have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default
except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and Fees
required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Noteholders, unless Agent
shall have received written notice from a Noteholder or the Company referring to
this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that
such notice is a "Notice of Default." Agent will use reasonable efforts to
notify each Noteholder of its receipt of any such notice, unless such notice is
with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees, in
which case Agent will notify each Noteholder of its receipt of such notice.
Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as
may be requested by the Required Holders in accordance with Section 10. Unless
and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect
to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best
interests of Noteholders.

                  SECTION 14.11. NOTEHOLDER ACTIONS AGAINST COLLATERAL. Each
Noteholder agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or
proceedings, with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees, against the Company
or any Issuer hereunder or under the other Basic Documents or against any of the
Real Property encumbered by Mortgages without the consent of the Required
Holders. With respect to any action by Agent to enforce the rights and remedies
of Agent and the Noteholders under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents,
each Noteholder hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the court in which such
action is maintained, and agrees to deliver its Notes to Agent to the extent
necessary to enforce the rights and remedies of Agent for the benefit of the
Noteholders under the Mortgages in accordance with the provisions hereof.

                  SECTION 14.12. SETOFF AND SHARING OF PAYMENTS. In addition to
any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of
limitation of any such rights, during the continuance of any Event of Default,
each Noteholder is hereby authorized by the Company at any time or from time to
time, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to the Company (any prior or
contemporaneous notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to
appropriate and to apply any and all (A) balances held by such Noteholder at any
of its offices for the account of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
(regardless of whether such balances are then due to the Company or its
Subsidiaries), and (B) other property at any time held or owing by such
Noteholder to or for the credit or for the account of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, against and on account of any of the Obligations; except that no
Noteholder shall exercise any such right without the prior written consent of
Agent. Any Noteholder exercising a right to set off shall purchase for cash (and
the other Noteholders shall sell) interests in each of such other Noteholder's
Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause all Noteholders
to share the amount so set off with each other Noteholder in accordance with
their respective Pro Rata Shares. The Company agrees, to the fullest extent

                                     -102-
<PAGE>

permitted by law, that any Noteholder may exercise its right to set off with
respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and upon
doing so shall deliver such amount so set off to the Agent for the benefit of
all Noteholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares.

                                   SECTION 15

         Company shall have specified to such Holder in writing.

                  SECTION 15.02. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS AND
PARTICIPATIONS. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all covenants,
agreements and other provisions contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of
any of the parties hereto shall bind, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
by their respective successors and registered assigns (including, without
limitation, any subsequent holder of a Purchased Security) whether so expressed
or not; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company may not assign and transfer any of
its rights or obligations without the prior written consent of the other parties
hereto and each such holder.

                                     -103-
<PAGE>

                  Nothing in this Agreement or in the Securities, express or
implied, shall give to any Person other than the parties hereto, their
successors and assigns and the holders from time to time of the Securities any
benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement.

                  SECTION 15.03. NO WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No failure or
delay on the part of any party hereto or any Holder in exercising any right,
power or privilege hereunder or under the Securities and no course of dealing
between any Issuer and any other party or Holder shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder or under the Securities preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege
hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein and in the
Securities are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the
parties or Holders would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Issuer in
any case shall entitle any Issuer to any other or further notice or demand in
similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the other
parties hereto or the Holders to any other or further action in any
circumstances without notice or demand.

                  SECTION 15.04. AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS AND CONSENTS. This
Agreement may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof may be waived
(either retroactively or prospectively) with (and only with) the written consent
of the Company and the Required Holders (provided that any amendment or waiver
which relates to the Shares or the Warrants and/or Warrant Shares shall require
the written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority of the
outstanding Shares or Warrants and/or Warrant Shares (with Warrants counted on
an as-converted basis)) (or, if prior to the Closing Time, Purchasers who have
agreed to purchase a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, a
majority of the Shares and a majority of the Warrants); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
no such amendment or waiver may, without the prior written consent of each

and (b), any of the definitions used in such Sections, (vi) reduce the premium

Liens of the Security Documents, in each case without the written consent of
each Holder. No amendment or waiver of this Agreement will extend to or affect
any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly
amended or waived or thereby impair any right consequent thereon. Without the
consent of any other person, the applicable Issuer or Issuers and the Agent may
(in its or their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by
any Basic Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Basic Document, or
enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection,
protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral
or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security
interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the
security interests therein comply with applicable Requirements of Law. As used
herein, the term this "AGREEMENT" and references thereto shall mean this
Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

                  SECTION 15.05. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall
be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.
It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or
account for more than one such counterpart. Each counterpart may consist of a
number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by
all, of the parties hereto.

                  SECTION 15.06. REPRODUCTION. This Agreement, the other
Transaction Documents and all documents relating, hereto and thereto, including,
without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter
be executed, (b) documents received by the Purchasers at the Closing Time
(except the Securities themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates
and other information previously or hereafter furnished in connection herewith,
may be reproduced by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard,
miniature photographic or other similar process and any original document so
reproduced may be destroyed. Each Issuer agrees and stipulates that, to the
extent permitted by Applicable Law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in
evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding
(whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such
reproduction was made in the regular course of business) and any enlargement,
facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be
admissible in evidence. This Section 14.06 shall not prohibit any Issuer, any
other party hereto or any Holder from contesting any such reproduction to the
same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to
demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

                  SECTION 15.07. HEADINGS. The headings of the sections and
subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way
affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

                  SECTION 15.08. GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION;
VENUE.

                  (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND
ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, EXCLUDING CHOICE-OF-LAW PRINCIPLES OF THE LAW
OF SUCH STATE THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION
OTHER THAN SUCH STATE.

<PAGE>

                  (b) If any action, proceeding or litigation shall be brought
by any Purchaser or any Holder in order to enforce any right or remedy under
this Agreement or any of the Securities, the Issuers hereby consent and will
submit, and will cause each of their Subsidiaries to submit, to the jurisdiction
of any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting within the area
comprising the Southern District of New York on the date of this Agreement. The
Issuers hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including, but not limited to,
any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of FORUM NON
CONVENIENS, which they may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such
action, proceeding or litigation in such jurisdiction. The Issuers further agree
that they shall not, and shall cause their Subsidiaries not to, bring any
action, proceeding or litigation arising out of this Agreement, the Securities,
the Subsidiary Guarantees or any other Transaction Document in any state or
federal court other than any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction
sitting within the area comprising the Southern District of New York on the date
of this Agreement.

                  (c) The Issuers hereby irrevocably designate CT Corporation
System at an address in New York City designated at the Closing Time as the
designee, appointee and agent of the Issuers to receive, for and on behalf of
the Issuers, service of process in such jurisdiction in any action, proceeding

                                      -12-

request and (ii) from and after the Closing Date, no Pledgor shall permit to
become effective in any document creating, governing or providing for any

                  In the event of any conflict between the terms of the

on the equityholder register or the books of the issuer, cause the issuer to
execute and deliver to the Agent an acknowledgment of the pledge of such Pledged
Securities substantially in the form of EXHIBIT 1 annexed hereto, execute any
customary pledge forms or other documents necessary or appropriate to complete
the pledge and give the Agent the right to transfer such Pledged Securities
under the terms hereof and, upon request, provide to the Agent an opinion of
counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, confirming
such pledge and perfection thereof and (ii) use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause such Pledged Securities to become certificated and delivered to
the Agent in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 3.1.

                  SECTION 3.3. FINANCING STATEMENTS AND OTHER FILINGS;
MAINTENANCE OF PERFECTED SECURITY INTEREST. Each Pledgor represents and warrants

filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in SCHEDULE 7
annexed to the Perfection Certificate (to the extent required to be listed on
the schedules to the Perfection Certificate as of the date this representation
is made or deemed made). Each Pledgor agrees that at the sole cost and expense
of the Pledgors, (i) such Pledgor will maintain the security interest created by
this Agreement in the Pledged Collateral as a perfected first priority security
interest and shall defend such security interest against the claims and demands
of all persons except Permitted Collateral Liens, (ii) such Pledgor shall
furnish to the Agent from time

<PAGE>
                                      -14-

to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Pledged
Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Pledged Collateral as
the Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail and (iii) at any time
and from time to time, upon the written request of the Agent, such Pledgor shall
promptly and duly execute and deliver, and file and have recorded, such further
instruments and documents and take such further action as the Agent may
reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits
of this Agreement and the rights and powers herein granted, including the filing
of any financing statements, continuation statements and other documents
(including this Agreement) under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar
laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interest
created hereby and the execution and delivery of Control Agreements, all in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and in such offices (including the United
States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office)
wherever required by law to perfect, continue and maintain a valid, enforceable,
first priority security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein
and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the Agent hereunder,
as against third parties, with respect to the Pledged Collateral.

                  SECTION 3.4. OTHER ACTIONS. In order to further insure the
attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Agent to enforce,
the Agent's security interest in the Pledged Collateral, each Pledgor represents
and warrants (as to itself) as follows and agrees, in each case at such
Pledgor's own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the
following Pledged Collateral:

                  (a) INSTRUMENTS AND TANGIBLE CHATTEL PAPER. (i) No amounts
         payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral are
         evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper other than such

         the Perfection Certificate (to the extent required to be listed on the
         schedules to the Perfection Certificate as of the date this
         representation is made or deemed made) and (ii) each Instrument and
         each item of Tangible Chattel Paper listed in SCHEDULE 11 annexed to
         the Perfection Certificate has been properly endorsed, assigned and
         delivered to the Agent, accompanied by instruments of transfer or
         assignment duly executed in blank. If any amount then payable under or
         in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by
         any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, and such amount, together
         with all amounts payable evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible
         Chattel Paper not previously delivered to the Agent exceeds $500,000 in
         the aggregate for all Pledgors, the Pledgor acquiring such Instrument
         or Tangible Chattel Paper shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver
         the same to the Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or
         assignment duly executed in blank as the Agent may from time to time
         specify.

                  (b) DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. (i) Each Pledgor has neither opened nor
         maintains any Deposit Accounts other than the accounts listed in
         SCHEDULE 14 annexed to the Perfection Certificate (to the extent
         required to be listed on the schedules to the Perfection Certificate as
         of the date this representation is made or deemed made) and (ii) the
         Agent has a perfected first priority security interest in each Deposit
         Account listed in SCHEDULE 14 annexed to the Perfection Certificate

<PAGE>
                                      -15-

         No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Deposit Account
         unless (1) the applicable Pledgor shall have given the Agent 30 days'
         prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Deposit
         Account with a Bank, (2) such Bank shall be reasonably acceptable to
         the Agent and (3) such Bank and such Pledgor shall have duly executed
         and delivered to the Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement with
         respect to such Deposit Account. Each Pledgor agrees that at the time
         it establishes any additional Deposit Accounts it shall enter into a
         duly authorized, executed and delivered Deposit Account Control
         Agreement with respect to such Deposit Account. The Agent agrees with
         each Pledgor that the Agent shall not give any instructions directing
         the disposition of funds from time to time credited to any Deposit
         Account or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Pledgor with
         respect to funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account
         unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Except as
         set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, no Pledgor shall grant
         Control of any Deposit Account (other than the Excluded Accounts) to
         any person other than the Agent.

                  (c) INVESTMENT PROPERTY. (i) Each Pledgor (1) has no
         Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts other than those listed in
         SCHEDULE 14 annexed to the Perfection Certificate (to the extent
         required to be listed on the schedules to the Perfection Certificate as
         of the date this representation is made or deemed made) and the Agent
         has a perfected first priority security interest in such Securities
         Accounts (other than the Excluded Accounts) and Commodity Accounts by
         Control, (2) does not hold, own or have any interest in any
         certificated securities or uncertificated securities other than those
         constituting Pledged Securities and those maintained in Securities
         Accounts or Commodity Accounts listed in SCHEDULE 14 annexed to the
         Perfection Certificate (to the extent required to be listed on the
         schedules to the Perfection Certificate as of the date this
         representation is made or deemed made) and (3) as of the date hereof,
         has entered into a duly authorized, executed and delivered Securities
         Account Control Agreement or a Commodity Account Control Agreement with
         respect to each Securities Account or Commodity Account listed in

                  (ii) If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire any
         certificated securities constituting Investment Property, such Pledgor
         shall promptly (a) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Agent,
         accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed
         in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
         Agent or (b) deliver such securities into a Securities Account with
         respect to which a Control Agreement is in effect in favor of the
         Agent. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by any Pledgor
         constituting Investment Property are uncertificated and are issued to
         such Pledgor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such
         Pledgor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof and pursuant to an
         agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, either (a)
         cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Agent as
         to such securities, without further consent of any Pledgor or such
         nominee, (b) cause a Security Entitlement with respect to such
         uncertificated security to be held in a Securities Account with respect
         to which the Agent has Control or (c) arrange for the Agent to

<PAGE>
                                      -16-

         become the registered owner of the securities. Pledgor shall not
         hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity
         Account with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary
         unless (1) the applicable Pledgor shall have given the Agent 30 days'
         prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Securities
         Account or Commodity Account with such Securities Intermediary or
         Commodity Intermediary, (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity
         Intermediary shall be reasonably acceptable to the Agent and (3) such
         Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be,
         and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control
         Agreement with respect to such Securities Account or Commodity Account,
         as the case may be. Each Pledgor shall accept any cash and Investment
         Property in trust for the benefit of the Agent and within one (1)
         Business Day of actual receipt thereof, deposit any cash or Investment
         Property and any new securities, instruments, documents or other
         property by reason of ownership of the Investment Property (other than
         payments of a kind described in SECTION 7.4 hereof) received by it into
         a Controlled Account. The Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Agent
         shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to
         any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or
         Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the
         exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an
         Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving
         effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights would occur. The
         provisions of this SECTION 3.4(C) shall not apply to any Financial
         Assets credited to a Securities Account for which the Agent is the
         Securities Intermediary. No Pledgor shall grant control over any
         Investment Property to any person other than the Agent.

                  (iii) As between the Agent and the Pledgors, the Pledgors
         shall bear the investment risk with respect to the Investment Property
         and Pledged Securities, and the risk of loss of, damage to, or the
         destruction of the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, whether
         in the possession of, or maintained as a security entitlement or
         deposit by, or subject to the control of, the Agent, a Securities
         Intermediary, Commodity Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other person;
         PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing contained in this SECTION 3.4(C) shall
         release or relieve any Securities Intermediary or Commodity
         Intermediary of its duties and obligations to the Pledgors or any other
         person under any Control Agreement or under applicable law. Each
         Pledgor shall promptly pay all Claims and fees of whatever kind or
         nature with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities
         pledged by it under this Agreement. In the event any Pledgor shall fail
         to make such payment contemplated in the immediately preceding
         sentence, the Agent may do so for the account of such Pledgor and the
         Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Agent from all
         costs and expenses incurred by the Agent under this SECTION 3.4(C) in
         accordance with SECTION 13 of the Purchase Agreement.

                  (d) ELECTRONIC CHATTEL PAPER AND TRANSFERABLE RECORDS. No
         amount under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral is
         evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any "transferable record"
         (as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic
         Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the

<PAGE>
                                      -17-

         Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant
         jurisdiction) other than such Electronic Chattel Paper and transferable
         records listed in SCHEDULE 11 annexed to the Perfection Certificate (to
         the extent required to be listed on the schedules to the Perfection
         Certificate as of the date this representation is made or deemed made).
         If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged
         Collateral shall be evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any
         transferable record, the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel
         Paper or transferable record shall promptly notify the Agent thereof
         and shall take such action as the Agent may reasonably request to vest
         in the Agent control under UCC Section 9-105 of such Electronic Chattel
         Paper or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures
         in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16
         of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such
         jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The requirement in the
         preceding sentence shall apply to the extent that such amount, together
         with all amounts payable evidenced by Electronic Chattel Paper or any
         transferable record in which the Agent has not been vested control
         within the meaning of the statutes described in this sentence exceeds
         $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. The Agent agrees with such
         Pledgor that the Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures
         satisfactory to the Agent and so long as such procedures will not
         result in the Agent's loss of control, for the Pledgor to make
         alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record
         permitted under UCC Section 9-105 or, as the case may be, Section 201
         of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce
         Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a
         party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of
         Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into
         account any action by such Pledgor with respect to such Electronic
         Chattel Paper or transferable record.

                  (e) LETTER-OF-CREDIT RIGHTS. If any Pledgor is at any time a
         beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now or hereafter issued in favor
         of such Pledgor, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof
         and such Pledgor shall, at the request of the Agent, pursuant to an
         agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent,
         either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such Letter of
         Credit to consent to an assignment to the Agent of the proceeds of any
         drawing under the Letter of Credit or (ii) arrange for the Agent to
         become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, with the
         Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under
         the Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in the Purchase
         Agreement. The actions in the preceding sentence shall be taken to the
         extent that the amount under such Letter of Credit, together with all
         amounts under Letters of Credit for which the actions described above
         in clause (i) and (ii) have not been taken, exceeds $500,000 in the
         aggregate for all Pledgors.

                  (f) COMMERCIAL TORT CLAIMS. As of the date hereof each Pledgor
         hereby represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims
         other than those listed in SCHEDULE 13 annexed to the Perfection
         Certificate (to the extent required to be listed on the schedules to
         the Perfection Certificate as of the date this representation is made
         or

<PAGE>
                                      -18-

         deemed made). If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a
         Commercial Tort Claim having a value together with all other Commercial
         Tort Claims of all Pledgors in which the Agent does not have a security
         interest in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate, such Pledgor shall
         immediately notify the Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the
         brief details thereof and grant to the Agent in such writing a security
         interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of
         this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance
         reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

                  (g) LANDLORD'S ACCESS AGREEMENTS. Each Pledgor shall use its
         commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Landlord Access Agreement
         and/or, if required by the Purchase Agreement, landlord's lien waiver,
         as applicable, from all such landlords, as applicable, who from time to
         time after the date hereof have possession of Pledged Collateral (other
         than with respect to any location of Pledged Collateral maintained on
         the date hereof) in the ordinary course of such Pledgor's business and
         if reasonably requested by the Agent. A Landlord Access Agreement
         and/or landlord's lien waiver shall not be required if (i) the value of
         the Pledged Collateral held by such landlord is less than $100,000,
         provided that the aggregate value of the Pledged Collateral held by all
         landlords who have not delivered a Landlord Access Agreement and/or
         landlord's lien waiver is less than $500,000 in the aggregate or (ii)
         the Pledgor has delivered a leasehold mortgage with respect to such
         property.

                  (h) MOTOR VEHICLES. Upon the request of the Agent, each
         Pledgor shall deliver to the Agent originals of the certificates of
         title or ownership for the motor vehicles (and any other Equipment
         covered by Certificates of Title or ownership) owned by it with the
         Agent listed as lienholder therein. Such requirement shall apply to the
         Pledgors if any such motor vehicle (or any such other Equipment) is
         valued at over $50,000, provided that the value of all such motor
         vehicles (and such Equipment) as to which any Pledgor has not delivered
         a Certificate of Title or ownership is over $500,000.

                  SECTION 3.5. JOINDER OF ADDITIONAL GUARANTORS. The Pledgors
shall cause each new Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than a Foreign Subsidiary)
which, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any
assets to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the
provisions of the Purchase Agreement, to execute and deliver to the Agent (i) a
Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of EXHIBIT 3 annexed hereto within
thirty (30) Business Days of the date on which it was acquired or created and
(ii) a Perfection Certificate, in each case, within thirty (30) Business Days of
the date on which it was acquired or created and, in each case, upon such
execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a "Guarantor" and a
"Pledgor" for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if
originally named as a Guarantor and Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery
of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor
hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in
full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and
Pledgor as a party to this Agreement.

                  SECTION 3.6. SUPPLEMENTS; FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each Pledgor
shall take such further actions, and to execute and deliver to the Agent such
additional assignments, agreements,

<PAGE>
                                      -19-

supplements, powers and instruments, as the Agent may in its reasonable judgment
deem necessary or appropriate, wherever required by law, in order to perfect,
preserve and protect the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided
herein and the rights and interests granted to the Agent hereunder, to carry
into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm unto the Agent
the Pledged Collateral or permit the Agent to exercise and enforce its rights,
powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute,
endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Agent from time to
time upon reasonable request such lists, descriptions and designations of the
Pledged Collateral, copies of warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of
warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices,
schedules, confirmatory assignments, supplements, additional security
agreements, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of
attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments as the Agent
shall reasonably request. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any
Pledgor, such suits and proceedings as the Agent may be advised by counsel shall
be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the security interest in
or the perfection thereof in the Pledged Collateral. All of the foregoing shall
be at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                    REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

           EACH PLEDGOR REPRESENTS, WARRANTS AND COVENANTS AS FOLLOWS:

                  SECTION 4.1. TITLE. Except for the security interest granted
to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this
Agreement and Permitted Liens, such Pledgor owns and, as to Pledged Collateral
acquired by it from time to time after the date hereof, will own the rights in
each item of Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder free and clear of any
and all Liens or claims of others other than Permitted Collateral Liens. In
addition, no Liens or claims exist on the Securities Collateral, other than as
permitted by SECTION 8.07 of the Purchase Agreement. Such Pledgor has not filed,
nor authorized any third party to file a financing statement or other public
notice with respect to all or any part of the Pledged Collateral on file or of
record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the
Agent pursuant to this Agreement, those filed by the holder of a Permitted
Collateral Lien relating to the Permitted Collateral Liens or as are permitted
by the Purchase Agreement or financing statements or public notices relating to
the termination statements listed on SCHEDULE 9 to the Perfection Certificate.
No person other than the Agent has control or possession of all or any part of
the Pledged Collateral, except as permitted by the Purchase Agreement.

                  SECTION 4.2. VALIDITY OF SECURITY INTEREST. The security
interest in and Lien on the Pledged Collateral granted to the Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder constitutes (a) a legal and valid
security interest in all the Pledged Collateral securing the

<PAGE>
                                      -20-

payment and performance of the Obligations, and (b) subject to the filings and
other actions described in SCHEDULE 7 annexed to the Perfection Certificate (to
the extent required to be listed on the schedules to the Perfection Certificate
as of the date this representation is made or deemed made), a perfected security
interest in all the Pledged Collateral. The security interest and Lien granted
to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement
in and on the Pledged Collateral will at all times constitute a perfected,
continuing security interest therein, subject only to Permitted Collateral
Liens.

                  SECTION 4.3. DEFENSE OF CLAIMS; TRANSFERABILITY OF PLEDGED
COLLATERAL. Each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, defend title to the
Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and
Lien thereon granted to the Agent and the priority thereof against all claims
and demands of all persons, at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming
any interest therein adverse to the Agent or any other Secured Party other than
Permitted Collateral Liens (other than Contested Liens). There is no agreement,
and no Pledgor shall enter into any agreement or take any other action, that
would restrict the transferability of any of the Pledged Collateral or otherwise
impair or conflict with such Pledgors' obligations or the rights of the Agent
hereunder, except as permitted herein or by the Purchase Agreement.

                  SECTION 4.4. OTHER FINANCING STATEMENTS. It has not filed, nor
authorized any third party to file (nor will there be any) valid or effective
financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under
the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any
kind in the Pledged Collateral other than financing statements and other
statements and instruments relating to Permitted Collateral Liens. So long as
any of the Obligations remain unpaid, no Pledgor shall execute, authorize or
permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar
statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction)
relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other
statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the
security interests granted by such Pledgor to the holder of the Permitted
Collateral Liens.

                  SECTION 4.5. CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICE; CHANGE OF NAME;
JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION. (a) It shall comply with the provisions of SECTION
7.15(A) of the Purchase Agreement.

                  (b) The Agent may rely on opinions of counsel as to whether
any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a
result of any of the changes described in SECTION 7.15(A) of the Purchase
Agreement. If any Pledgor fails to provide information to the Agent about such
changes on a timely basis, the Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any
party for any failure to maintain a perfected security interest in such
Pledgor's property constituting Pledged Collateral, for which the Agent needed
to have information relating to such changes. The Agent shall have no duty to
inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Agent of such
changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or
practical for the Agent to search for information on such changes if such
information is not provided by any Pledgor.

                                      -21-

                  SECTION 4.6. LOCATION OF INVENTORY AND EQUIPMENT. It shall not
move any Equipment or Inventory to any location other than one within the
continental United States and until (i) it shall have given the Agent not less
than 30 days' prior written notice (in the form of an Officers' Certificate) of
its intention so to do, clearly describing such new location within the
continental United States and providing such other information in connection
therewith as the Agent may request and (ii) with respect to such new location,
such Pledgor shall have taken all action reasonably satisfactory to the Agent to
maintain the perfection and priority of the security interest of the Agent for
the benefit of the Secured Parties in the Pledged Collateral intended to be
granted hereby, including using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
waivers of landlord's liens with respect to such new location, if applicable,
and if requested by the Agent. Such Pledgor agrees to provide the Agent with
prompt notice following the movement of any Equipment or Inventory to any
location other than one that is listed in the relevant Schedules to the
Perfection Certificate.

                  SECTION 4.7. DUE AUTHORIZATION AND ISSUANCE. All of the
Initial Pledged Shares have been, and to the extent any Pledged Shares are
hereafter issued, such Pledged Shares will be, upon such issuance, duly
authorized, validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable. All of the Initial
Pledged Interests have been fully paid for, and there is no amount or other
obligation owing by any Pledgor to any issuer of the Initial Pledged Interests
in exchange for or in connection with the issuance of the Initial Pledged
Interests or any Pledgor's status as a partner or a member of any issuer of the
Initial Pledged Interests.

                  SECTION 4.8. CONSENTS, ETC. In the event that the Agent
desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or
attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary
to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or any other
person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Agent, such Pledgor
agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist and aid the Agent to
obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the
exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers.

                  SECTION 4.9. PLEDGED COLLATERAL. All information set forth
herein, including the schedules annexed hereto, and all information contained in
any documents, schedules and lists heretofore delivered to any Secured Party,
including the Perfection Certificate and the schedules thereto, in connection
with this Agreement, in each case, relating to the Pledged Collateral, is
accurate and complete in all material respects. The Pledged Collateral described
on the schedules annexed to the Perfection Certificate constitutes all of the
property of such type of Pledged Collateral owned or held by the Pledgors that
is required to be pledged herein or by the Purchase Agreement.

                  SECTION 4.10. INSURANCE. In the event that the proceeds of any
insurance claim are paid after the Agent has exercised its right to foreclose
after an Event of Default, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be paid to the Agent to
satisfy any deficiency remaining after such foreclosure.

<PAGE>
                                      -22-

                  SECTION 4.11. PAYMENT OF TAXES; COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS;
CONTESTING LIENS; CLAIMS. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that all Claims
imposed upon or assessed against the Pledged Collateral have been paid and
discharged except to the extent such Claims constitute a Lien not yet due and
payable which is a Contested Lien or a Permitted Collateral Lien. Each Pledgor
shall comply with all Requirements of Law applicable to the Pledged Collateral
the failure to comply with which would, individually or in the aggregate, have a
Material Adverse Effect. Each Pledgor may at its own expense contest the
validity, amount or applicability of any Claims so long as the contest thereof
shall be conducted in accordance with, and permitted pursuant to the provisions
of, the Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
SECTION 4.11, (i) no contest of any such obligation may be pursued by such
Pledgor if such contest would expose the Agent or any other Secured Party to (A)
any possible criminal liability or (B) any additional civil liability for
failure to comply with such obligations unless such Pledgor shall have furnished
a bond or other security therefor satisfactory to the Agent, or such Secured
Party, as the case may be and (ii) if at any time payment or performance of any
obligation contested by such Pledgor pursuant to this SECTION 4.11 shall become
necessary to prevent the imposition of remedies because of non-payment, such
Pledgor shall pay or perform the same in sufficient time to prevent the
imposition of remedies in respect of such default or prospective default.

                  SECTION 4.12. ACCESS TO PLEDGED COLLATERAL, BOOKS AND RECORDS;
OTHER INFORMATION. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, upon reasonable
request to each Pledgor and upon the execution of a confidentiality agreement
substantially in the form set forth in the Purchase Agreement or as otherwise
mutually acceptable to the Issuer and the Agent, the Agent, its agents,
accountants and attorneys shall have full and free access to visit and inspect,
as applicable, during normal business hours and such other reasonable times as
may be requested by the Agent all of the Pledged Collateral including all of the
books, correspondence and records of such Pledgor relating thereto. The Agent
and its representatives may examine the same, take extracts therefrom and make
photocopies thereof, and such Pledgor agrees to render to the Agent, at such
Pledgor's cost and expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be
reasonably requested by the Agent with regard thereto. Such Pledgor shall, at
any and all times, within a reasonable time after written request by the Agent,
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Agent, in such manner and in such detail
as may be reasonably requested by the Agent, additional information with respect
to the Pledged Collateral.

                                    ARTICLE V

               CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING SECURITIES COLLATERAL

                  SECTION 5.1. PLEDGE OF ADDITIONAL SECURITIES COLLATERAL. Each
Pledgor shall, upon obtaining any Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes of
any person, accept the same in trust for the benefit of the Agent and forthwith
deliver to the Agent a pledge amendment, duly executed by such Pledgor, in
substantially the form of EXHIBIT 2 annexed hereto (each, a "PLEDGE AMENDMENT"),
and the certificates and other documents required under SECTION 3.1 and

<PAGE>
                                      -23-

SECTION 3.2 hereof in respect of the additional Pledged Securities or
Intercompany Notes which are to be pledged pursuant to this Agreement, and
confirming the attachment of the Lien hereby created on and in respect of such
additional Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes. Each Pledgor hereby
authorizes the Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement and
agrees that all Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes listed on any Pledge
Amendment delivered to the Agent shall for all purposes hereunder be considered
Pledged Collateral.

                  SECTION 5.2. VOTING RIGHTS; DISTRIBUTIONS; ETC.

                  (i) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing:

                  (A) Each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all
         voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Securities
         Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with
         the terms or purposes hereof, the Purchase Agreement or any other
         document evidencing the Obligations; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Pledgor
         shall in any event exercise such rights in any manner which could
         reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (B) Each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain, and
         to utilize free and clear of the Lien hereof, any and all
         Distributions, but only if and to the extent made in accordance with
         the provisions of the Purchase Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any
         and all such Distributions consisting of rights or interests in the
         form of securities shall be forthwith delivered to the Agent to hold as
         Pledged Collateral and shall, if received by any Pledgor, be received
         in trust for the benefit of the Agent, be segregated from the other
         property or funds of such Pledgor and be forthwith delivered to the
         Agent as Pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any
         necessary endorsement).

                  (ii) The Agent shall be deemed without further action or
formality to have granted to each Pledgor all necessary consents relating to
voting rights and shall, if necessary, upon written request of any Pledgor and
at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, from time to time execute and
deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to such Pledgor all such
instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request in order to permit such
Pledgor to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise
pursuant to SECTION 5.2(I)(A) hereof and to receive the Distributions which it
is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to SECTION 5.2(i)(B) hereof.

                  (iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default:

                  (A) All rights of each Pledgor to exercise the voting and
         other consensual rights it would otherwise be entitled to exercise
         pursuant to SECTION 5.2(I)(A) hereof shall cease, and all such rights
         shall thereupon become vested in the Agent to the extent permitted by
         applicable law, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise
         such voting and other consensual rights to the extent permitted by
         applicable law.

                                      -24-

                  (B) All rights of each Pledgor to receive Distributions which
         it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to
         SECTION 5.2(I)(B) hereof shall cease and all such rights shall
         thereupon become vested in the Agent to the extent permitted by
         applicable law, which shall thereupon have the sole right to receive
         and hold as Pledged Collateral such Distributions to the extent
         permitted by applicable law.

                  (iv) Each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, from
time to time execute and deliver to the Agent appropriate instruments as the
Agent may request in order to permit the Agent to exercise the voting and other
rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to SECTION 5.2(III)(A)
hereof and to receive all Distributions which it may be entitled to receive
under SECTION 5.2(III)(B) hereof.

                  (v) All Distributions which are received by any Pledgor
contrary to the provisions of SECTION 5.2(I)(B) hereof shall be received in
trust for the benefit of the Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such
Pledgor and shall immediately be paid over to the Agent as Pledged Collateral in
the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

                  SECTION 5.3. DEFAULTS, ETC. Such Pledgor is not in default in
the payment of any portion of any mandatory capital contribution, if any,
required to be made under any agreement to which such Pledgor is a party
relating to the Pledged Securities pledged by it, and such Pledgor is not in
violation of any other provisions of any such agreement to which such Pledgor is
a party, or otherwise in default or violation thereunder. No Securities
Collateral pledged by such Pledgor is subject to any defense, offset or
counterclaim, nor have any of the foregoing been asserted or alleged against
such Pledgor by any person with respect thereto, and as of the date hereof,
there are no certificates, instruments, documents or other writings (other than
the Organizational Documents and certificates, if any, delivered to the Agent)
which evidence any Pledged Securities of such Pledgor.

                  SECTION 5.4. CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF PLEDGORS AS ISSUERS AND
HOLDERS OF EQUITY INTERESTS.

                  (i) In the case of each Pledgor which is an issuer of
Securities Collateral, such Pledgor agrees to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement relating to the Securities Collateral issued by it and will comply
with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it.

                  (ii) In the case of each Pledgor which is a partner in a
partnership, limited liability company or other entity, such Pledgor hereby
consents to the extent required by the applicable Organizational Document to the
pledge by each other Pledgor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the Pledged
Interests in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity and,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the
transfer of such Pledged Interests to the Agent or its nominee and to the
substitution of the Agent or its nominee as a substituted partner or member in
such partnership, limited liability company or other entity with all the rights,
powers and duties of a general partner or a limited partner or member, as the
case may be.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                   CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING INTELLECTUAL
                               PROPERTY COLLATERAL

                  SECTION 6.1. GRANT OF LICENSE. For the purpose of enabling the
Agent, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and
remedies under ARTICLE IX hereof at such time as the Agent shall be lawfully
entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each
Pledgor hereby grants to the Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable,
non-exclusive license to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the
Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such
Pledgor, wherever the same may be located. Such license shall include access to
all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to
all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof.

                  SECTION 6.2. PROTECTION OF AGENT'S SECURITY. On a continuing
basis, each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) promptly following
its becoming aware thereof, notify the Agent of (A) any materially adverse
determination in any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office
or the United States Copyright Office with respect to any material Patent,
Trademark or Copyright or (B) the institution of any proceeding or any adverse
determination in any federal, state or local court or administrative body
regarding such Pledgor's claim of ownership in or right to use any of the
Intellectual Property Collateral material to the use and operation of the
Pledged Collateral, its right to register such Intellectual Property Collateral
or its right to keep and maintain such registration in full force and effect,
(ii) maintain and protect the Intellectual Property Collateral material to the
use and operation of the Pledged Collateral as presently used and operated and
as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, (iii) not permit to lapse or become
abandoned any Intellectual Property Collateral material to the use and operation
of the Pledged Collateral as presently used and operated and as contemplated by
the Purchase Agreement, and not settle or compromise any pending or future
litigation or administrative proceeding with respect to such Intellectual
Property Collateral, in each case except as shall be consistent with
commercially reasonable business judgment, (iv) upon such Pledgor obtaining
knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Agent in writing of any event which may
be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect the value or utility
of the Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof material to the
use and operation of the Pledged Collateral, the ability of such Pledgor or the
Agent to dispose of the Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof
or the rights and remedies of the Agent in relation thereto including a levy or
threat of levy or any legal process against the Intellectual Property Collateral
or any portion thereof, (v) not license the Intellectual Property Collateral
other than licenses entered into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the
ordinary course of business, or amend or permit the amendment of any of the
licenses in a manner that materially and adversely affects the right to receive
payments thereunder, or in any manner that would materially impair the value of
the Intellectual Property Collateral or the Lien on and security interest in the
Intellectual Property Collateral intended to be granted to the Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, without the consent of the Agent, (vi)
diligently keep adequate records respecting the Intellectual Property Collateral
and (vii) furnish to the Agent from time to time upon the Agent's request
therefor

<PAGE>
                                      -26-

reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and
describing the Intellectual Property Collateral and such other materials
evidencing or reports pertaining to the Intellectual Property Collateral as the
Agent may from time to time request.

                  SECTION 6.3. AFTER-ACQUIRED PROPERTY. If any Pledgor shall, at
any time before the Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent
indemnification obligations which, pursuant to the provisions of the Purchase
Agreement or the Security Documents, survive the termination thereof), (i)
obtain any rights to any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or (ii)
become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property
Collateral or any renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division,
continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property Collateral,
or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, the provisions
hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in clause
(i) or (ii) of this SECTION 6.3 with respect to such Pledgor shall automatically
constitute Intellectual Property Collateral if such would have constituted
Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject
to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further
action by any party. Each Pledgor shall promptly (i) provide to the Agent
written notice of any of the foregoing and (ii) confirm the attachment of the
Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights described in
clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence of this SECTION 6.3
by execution of an instrument in form reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the
filing of any instruments or statements as shall be reasonably necessary to
preserve, protect or perfect the Agent's security interest in such Intellectual
Property Collateral. Further, each Pledgor authorizes the Agent to modify this
Agreement by amending SCHEDULES 12(A) and 12(B) annexed to the Perfection
Certificate to include any Intellectual Property Collateral acquired or arising
after the date hereof of such Pledgor.

                  SECTION 6.4. LITIGATION. Unless there shall occur and be
continuing any Event of Default, each Pledgor shall have the right to commence
and prosecute in its own name, as the party in interest, for its own benefit and
at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such applications for protection
of the Intellectual Property Collateral and suits, proceedings or other actions
to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution,
diminution in value or other damage as are necessary to protect the Intellectual
Property Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, the Agent shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to
file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and/or
bring suit in the name of any Pledgor, the Agent or the Secured Parties to
enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral and any license thereunder. In the
event of such suit, each Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of the Agent,
do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents requested by the
Agent in aid of such enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and
indemnify the Agent for all costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in the
exercise of its rights under this SECTION 6.4 in accordance with SECTION 13 of
the Purchase Agreement. In the event that the Agent shall elect not to bring
suit to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral, each Pledgor agrees, at
the reasonable request of the Agent, to take all commercially reasonable actions
necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the
infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value
of or

<PAGE>
                                      -27-

other damage to any of the material Intellectual Property Collateral by others
and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any suit, proceeding or other
action against any person so infringing necessary to prevent such infringement.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                     CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING ACCOUNTS

                  SECTION 7.1. MAINTENANCE OF RECORDS. Each Pledgor shall keep
and maintain at its own cost and expense complete records of each Account, in a
manner consistent with prudent business practice, including records of all
payments received, all credits granted thereon, all merchandise returned and all
other documentation relating thereto. Except as provided in the Intercreditor
Agreement, each Pledgor shall, at such Pledgor's sole cost and expense, upon the
Agent's demand made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default, deliver all tangible evidence of Accounts, including
all documents evidencing Accounts and any books and records relating thereto to
the Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and
records may be retained by such Pledgor). Except as provided in the
Intercreditor Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default and acceleration of the Notes (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement), the Agent may transfer a full and complete copy of any Pledgor's
books, records, credit information, reports, memoranda and all other writings
relating to the Accounts to and for the use by any person that has acquired or
is contemplating acquisition of an interest in the Accounts or the Agent's
security interest therein without the consent of any Pledgor.

                  SECTION 7.2. LEGEND. Each Pledgor shall legend, at the request
of the Agent and in form and manner satisfactory to the Agent, the Accounts and
the other books, records and documents of such Pledgor evidencing or pertaining
to the Accounts with an appropriate reference to the fact that the Accounts have
been assigned to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the
Agent has a security interest therein.

                  SECTION 7.3. MODIFICATION OF TERMS, ETC. No Pledgor shall
rescind or cancel any obligations evidenced by any Account or modify any term
thereof or make any adjustment with respect thereto except in the ordinary
course of business consistent with prudent business practice, or extend or renew
any such obligations except in the ordinary course of business consistent with
prudent business practice or compromise or settle any dispute, claim, suit or
legal proceeding relating thereto or sell any Account or interest therein except
in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practice
without the prior written consent of the Agent. Each Pledgor shall timely
fulfill all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with
the Accounts.

                  SECTION 7.4. COLLECTION. Each Pledgor shall cause to be
collected from the Account Debtor of each of the Accounts, as and when due in
the ordinary course of business and consistent with prudent business practice
(including Accounts that are delinquent), any and all

<PAGE>
                                      -28-

amounts owing under or on account of such Account, and apply forthwith upon
receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance
of such Account, except that any Pledgor may, with respect to an Account, allow
in the ordinary course of business (i) a refund or credit due and (ii) such
extensions of time to pay amounts due in respect of Accounts and such other
modifications of payment terms or settlements in respect of Accounts as shall be
commercially reasonable in the circumstances, all in accordance with such
Pledgor's ordinary course of business consistent with its collection practices
as in effect from time to time. The costs and expenses (including attorneys'
fees) of collection, in any case, whether incurred by any Pledgor, the Agent or
any Secured Party, shall be paid by the Pledgors.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                    TRANSFERS

                  SECTION 8.1. TRANSFERS OF PLEDGED COLLATERAL. No Pledgor shall
sell, convey, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect
to, any of the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder except as permitted by
the Purchase Agreement, including SECTION 7.19 of the Purchase Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                    REMEDIES

                  SECTION 9.1. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default the Agent may from time to time exercise in
respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies
provided for herein or otherwise available to it, the following remedies:

                  (i) Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take
possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor or
any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without
notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor's
premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located, remove such Pledged
Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all
communications and remittances relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in
connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids
and other facilities of any Pledgor;

                  (ii) Demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property
at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Pledged Collateral including
instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other
obligation constituting part of the Pledged Collateral to make any payment
required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly
to the Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle,
extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto;
PROVIDED,

<PAGE>
                                      -29-

HOWEVER, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any
Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor
shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit
of the Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later than one (1) Business Day
after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Agent;

                  (iii) Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise
liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or
otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of
any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation;

                  (iv) Take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part
thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Agent at
any place or places so designated by the Agent, in which event such Pledgor
shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place
or places designated by the Agent and therewith delivered to the Agent, (B)
store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Agent at such place or
places pending further action by the Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral
shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as
shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good
condition. Each Pledgor's obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as
contemplated in this SECTION 9.1(IV) is of the essence hereof. Upon application
to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Agent shall be entitled to a
decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation;

                  (v) Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other
property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any
Pledgor constituting Pledged Collateral for application to the Obligations as
provided in ARTICLE X hereof;

                  (vi) Retain and apply the Distributions to the Obligations as
provided in ARTICLE X hereof;

                  (vii) Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal
owner of the Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and
exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with
respect to any Pledged Collateral; and

                  (viii) Exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party
on default under the UCC, and the Agent may also in its sole discretion, without
notice except as specified in SECTION 9.2 hereof, sell, assign or grant a
license to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels
at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker's board or at any of the
Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at
such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Agent may deem
commercially reasonable. The Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their
respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of
any or all of the Pledged Collateral at any such sale and shall be entitled, for
the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price
for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at
such sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations owed to such person as a
credit on account of the purchase price of any Pledged Collateral payable by
such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at

<PAGE>
                                      -30-

any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely
free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay
and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under
any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Agent shall
not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of
sale having been given. The Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from
time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale
may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so
adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
any claims against the Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at
which any Pledged Collateral may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a
private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public
sale, even if the Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such
Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.

                  SECTION 9.2. NOTICE OF SALE. Each Pledgor acknowledges and
agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Pledged
Collateral shall be required by law, ten (10) days' prior notice to such Pledgor
of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private
sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially
reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any
Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a
statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other
intended disposition.

                  SECTION 9.3. WAIVER OF NOTICE AND CLAIMS. Each Pledgor hereby
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or judicial
hearing in connection with the Agent's taking possession or the Agent's
disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral, including any and all prior notice
and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such
Pledgor would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all damages occasioned by
such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and
terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the
Agent's rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal,
valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any
applicable law. The Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper
payment made pursuant to this ARTICLE IX in the absence of gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any
other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all
right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the
applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law
and in equity against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or
attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon,
or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor.

                  SECTION 9.4. CERTAIN SALES OF PLEDGED COLLATERAL.

                  (i) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain
prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental
Authority, the Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any
part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those

<PAGE>
                                      -31-

who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor
acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to
the Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions,
and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale
shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that,
except as may be required by applicable law, the Agent shall have no obligation
to engage in public sales.

                  (ii) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain
prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities
laws, the Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of
the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to
persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities
Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not
with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges
that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the
Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions
(including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such
private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable
manner and that the Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and
no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment
Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to
register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the
Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer
would agree to do so.

                  (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the
reasonable request of the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent, cause any
registration, qualification under or compliance with any Federal or state
securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or any part of the
Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole cost and expense of
the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause
such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its
commercially reasonable efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be
effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or
facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including
registration under the Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect),
appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities
laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental
Authority. Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause
the Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such
registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof,
shall furnish to the Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars or
other documents incident thereto as the Agent from time to time may request, and
shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to
indemnify the Agent and all others participating in the distribution of such
Securities Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused
by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact
contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the
like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any
related registration statement, notification or the like) a

<PAGE>
                                      -32-

material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading.

                  (iv) If the Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any
or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written
request, the applicable Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Agent all
such information as the Agent may request in order to determine the number of
securities included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which
may be sold by the Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from
time to time in effect.

                  (v) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the
covenants contained in this SECTION 9.4 will cause irreparable injury to the
Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Agent and the other Secured Parties
have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence,
that each and every covenant contained in this SECTION 9.4 shall be specifically
enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not
to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such
covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing.

                  SECTION 9.5. NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.

                  (i) No failure on the part of the Agent to exercise, no course
of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Agent in exercising,
any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy
hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or remedy; nor shall the Agent be required to look first to,
enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. The remedies
herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by
law.

                  (ii) In the event that the Agent shall have instituted any
proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by
foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely
to the Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Agent and each
other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and
rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights,
remedies and powers of the Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as
if no such proceeding had been instituted.

                  SECTION 9.6. CERTAIN ADDITIONAL ACTIONS REGARDING INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon
the written demand of the Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the
Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or
Copyrights and Goodwill constituting Intellectual Property Collateral and such
other documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and
purposes hereof. Within five (5) Business Days of written notice thereafter from
the Agent, each Pledgor shall make available to the Agent, to the extent within
such Pledgor's power and authority, such personnel in such Pledgor's employ on
the date of the Event of Default as the Agent may reasonably designate to permit
such Pledgor to continue, directly or indirectly, to

<PAGE>
                                      -33-

produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold by such Pledgor under
the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights constituting Intellectual
Property Collateral, and such persons shall be available to perform their prior
functions on the Agent's behalf.

                                   ARTICLE X

            PROCEEDS OF CASUALTY EVENTS AND COLLATERAL DISPOSITIONS;
                             APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

                  SECTION 10.1. PROCEEDS OF CASUALTY EVENTS AND COLLATERAL
DISPOSITIONS. The Pledgors shall take all actions required by the Purchase
Agreement with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds of any Casualty Event or from
the sale or disposition of any Pledged Collateral.

                  SECTION 10.2. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds received
by the Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization
upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Agent of
its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the
Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Purchase Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

                  SECTION 11.1. CONCERNING AGENT.

                  (i) The Agent has been appointed as collateral agent pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement. The actions of the Agent hereunder are subject to the
provisions of the Purchase Agreement. The Agent shall have the right hereunder
to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any
rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including the release or
substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and
the Purchase Agreement. The Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in
connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of
any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Agent may
resign and a successor Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the
Purchase Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Agent by a
successor Agent, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent
under this Agreement, and the retiring Agent shall thereupon be discharged from
its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Agent's
resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Agent.

                  (ii) The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable
care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession
if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to
that which the Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property
consisting of similar instruments or interests, it being understood that neither
the Agent nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i)
ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges,
maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral,
whether or not the Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have
knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights
against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

                  (iii) The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written
notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made
by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this
Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

                  (iv) If any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes
collateral granted to the Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage,
security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any
conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of
trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect
of such collateral, the Agent, in its sole discretion, shall select which
provision or provisions shall control.

                  SECTION 11.2. AGENT MAY PERFORM; AGENT APPOINTED
ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained
in this Agreement (including such Pledgor's covenants to (i) pay the premiums in
respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay Claims, (iii)
make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of such
Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on
the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such
breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Agent
shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, lien,
imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and
when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance in
accordance with the provisions of SECTION 4.11 hereof. Any and all amounts so
expended by the Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the
provisions of SECTION 13 of the Purchase Agreement. Neither the provisions of
this SECTION 11.2 nor any action taken by the Agent pursuant to the provisions
of this SECTION 11.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant
contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from
constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Agent its
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and
in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Agent's
discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the
terms of the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement and the other Security Documents
which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes
hereof. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an
interest

<PAGE>
                                      -35-

and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor
hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by
virtue hereof.

                  SECTION 11.3. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; ASSIGNMENT. This
Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral
and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and
assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Agent
hereunder, to the benefit of the Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of
their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons
(including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or
any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any
indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such
other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect
thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to
the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

                  SECTION 11.4. TERMINATION; RELEASE. (a)When all the
Obligations have been paid in full, this Agreement shall terminate. Upon
termination of this Agreement the Pledged Collateral shall be released from the
Lien of this Agreement. Upon the transfer of any Pledged Collateral that is
permitted by SECTION 7.19(A) or SECTION 8.05 of the Purchase Agreement to a
party that in not the Issuer or a Guarantor, such Pledged Collateral shall be
released from the Lien of this Agreement. Upon such release or any release of
Pledged Collateral in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement,
the Agent shall, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the
Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to Pledgor, against receipt and without
recourse to or warranty by the Agent except as to the fact that the Agent has
not encumbered the released assets, such of the Pledged Collateral to be
released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession of the Agent and as
shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and,
with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, proper documents and instruments
(including UCC-3 termination statements or releases) acknowledging the
termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may
be.

                  SECTION 11.5. MODIFICATION IN WRITING. No amendment,
modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof,
nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless
the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement
and unless in writing and signed by the Agent. Any amendment, modification or
supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and
any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision
hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by
this Agreement or any other document evidencing the Obligations, no notice to or
demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

                  SECTION 11.6. NOTICES. Unless otherwise provided herein or in
the Purchase Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or
permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set
forth in the Purchase Agreement, as to any

<PAGE>
                                      -36-

Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Issuer set forth in the Purchase
Agreement and as to the Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the
Purchase Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated
by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery
with the terms of this SECTION 11.6.

                  SECTION 11.7. GOVERNING LAW, CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND
SERVICE OF PROCESS; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. SECTION 15.08 of the Purchase
Agreement is incorporated herein, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, as if a part hereof.

                  SECTION 11.8. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. Any provision hereof
which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or
affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

                  SECTION 11.9. EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement and
any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original,
but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

                  SECTION 11.10. BUSINESS DAYS. In the event any time period or
any date provided in this Agreement ends or falls on a day other than a Business
Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed
to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made
on such Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such other
day.

                  SECTION 11.11. NO CREDIT FOR PAYMENT OF TAXES OR IMPOSITION.
Such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium,
if any, or interest payable under the Purchase Agreement, and such Pledgor shall
not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable
under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax on the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof.

                  SECTION 11.12. NO CLAIMS AGAINST AGENT. Nothing contained in
this Agreement shall constitute any consent or request by the Agent, express or
implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any
materials or other property in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part
thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right, power or authority to contract for
or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any
materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any
claim against the Agent in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on
the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such
materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof.

                  SECTION 11.13. NO RELEASE. Nothing set forth in this Agreement
shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition
or agreement on such Pledgor's part to be performed or observed under or in
respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or from any liability to any person
under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall

<PAGE>
                                      -37-

impose any obligation on the Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or
observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor's part
to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Agent or any
other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating
thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of such
Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or the other Basic
Documents, or under or in respect of the Pledged Collateral or made in
connection herewith or therewith. The obligations of each Pledgor contained in
this SECTION 11.13 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of
such Pledgor's other obligations under this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement
and the other Basic Documents.

                  SECTION 11.14. OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE. All obligations of each
Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

                  (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement,
         readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any other
         Pledgor;

                  (ii) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Purchase
         Agreement or any other Basic Document, or any other agreement or
         instrument relating thereto;

                  (iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of,
         or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other
         amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the
         Purchase Agreement or any other Basic Document or any other agreement
         or instrument relating thereto;

                  (iv) any pledge, exchange, release or non-perfection of any
         other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent
         to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations;

                  (v) any exercise, non-exercise or waiver of any right, remedy,
         power or privilege under or in respect hereof, the Purchase Agreement
         or any other Basic Document except as specifically set forth in a
         waiver granted pursuant to the provisions of SECTION 11.5 hereof; or

                  (vi) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute
         a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor.
