         USA EDUCATION, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for value
received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the
principal amount stated above on the Maturity Date shown above and interest on
the principal amount stated above at the rate PER ANNUM equal to the Initial
Interest Rate shown above on the first Interest Payment Date shown above and
thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions on the reverse
hereof, until the principal hereof is fully paid or duly made available for
payment. The Company will pay interest on each Interest Payment Date and on the
Maturity Date, PROVIDED if any Interest Payment Date, other than the Maturity
Date, would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment
Date will be postponed until the next calendar day that is a Business Day. If
the Maturity Date is a day that is not a Business Day, principal and interest
will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect
as if made on the Maturity Date, and no interest on such payment shall accrue
from or after the Maturity Date. "Business Day" means any day other than a
Saturday, Sunday or Legal Holiday in New York City. The "Regular Record Date"
for each payment is the date one calendar day immediately preceding such
Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date.

         The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on
the Interest Payment Dates referred to above, will, as provided in the
Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the
close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, PROVIDED that
interest payable on the Maturity Date will be paid to the Person to whom the
principal of this Note is payable. Any such interest which is payable, but is
not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may
be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of
business on a special record date for the payment of such defaulted interest to
be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this
Note not less than ten days prior to such special record date, or may be paid at
any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of
any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed and upon such notice as
may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
The Company shall pay interest at the applicable interest rate (calculated
quarterly on each LIBOR Determination Date) on overdue principal and, to the
extent permitted by law, on overdue interest.

         Payments of principal and interest will be made at the office or agency
of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City
of New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the
time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debt, by
check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall
appear in the register for this Note, PROVIDED that so long as this Note is
represented by a Global Security, each payment shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, if the registered holder has provided the Trustee
appropriate instructions for such payment.

         The principal hereof and interest due at maturity will be paid upon
maturity by wire transfer of immediately available funds against presentation of
this Note at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

                               USA EDUCATION, INC.

                        SENIOR NOTE DUE FEBRUARY 18, 2003

                                 (FLOATING RATE)

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Company
issued under the Indenture, dated as of October 1, 2000 (the "Base Indenture"),
the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 27, 2001, and the
Amendment to the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 11, 2001
(collectively, the "Indenture"), each between the Company and The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor
trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights and
limitations of rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of
the Notes, and the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in
this Note have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.

         This Note is designated as a Senior Note due February 18, 2003. The
Interest Accrual Period for each Interest Payment Date begins on each Interest
Payment Date and ends on the calendar day before the next Interest Payment Date,
PROVIDED that the first Interest Accrual Period under this Note began on March
16, 2001 and will end on June 17, 2001, the calendar day before the first
Interest Payment Date. The interest rate in effect during each Interest Accrual
Period after the first will be the interest rate determined on the LIBOR
Determination Date immediately preceding such Interest Accrual Period, PROVIDED
that the interest rate in effect for the first Interest Accrual Period will be
the Initial Interest Rate specified on the face hereof. Interest shall be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in
the applicable Interest Accrual Period. All percentages resulting from any
calculations will be carried to five decimal places (that is, to the one hundred
thousandths place), with five one-millionths being rounded upwards, if
necessary. In addition, the interest rate hereon shall in no event be higher
than the maximum rate, if any, permitted by applicable law.

         Commencing with the first LIBOR Determination Date, and thereafter on
each succeeding LIBOR Determination Date, the rate at which interest on this
Note is payable shall be adjusted. Each such adjusted rate shall be applicable
to the Interest Accrual Period to which it relates.

         Subject to applicable law and except as specified herein, the rate of
interest on this Note for each Interest Accrual Period after the first shall be
Three-month LIBOR plus the Spread (as specified on the face hereof), provided
the rate of interest on this Note for the last Interest Accrual Period shall be
Two-month LIBOR plus the Spread.

         Three-month LIBOR or Two-month LIBOR, for any Interest Accrual Period,
are the London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having a
maturity of three months or two months, respectively, commencing on the first
day of the Interest Accrual Period, which appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of
11:00 a.m. London time, on the related LIBOR

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

Determination Date. If this rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750, the rate
for that day will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in
U.S. dollars, having the applicable maturity and in a principal amount of not
less than U.S. $1,000,000, are offered at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time,
on that LIBOR Determination Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market
by the Reference Banks. The Trustee will request the principal London office of
each Reference Bank to provide a quotation of its rate. If the Reference Banks
provide at least two quotations, the rate for that day will be the arithmetic
mean of the quotations. If the Reference Banks provide fewer than two
quotations, the rate for that day will be the arithmetic mean of the rates
quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Trustee, at
approximately 11:00 a.m. New York time, on that LIBOR Determination Date, for
loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks having the applicable maturity
and in a principal amount of not less than U.S. $1,000,000. If the banks
selected as described above are not providing quotations, Two-month LIBOR or
Three-month LIBOR in effect for the applicable Interest Accrual Period will be
Two-month LIBOR or Three-month LIBOR, as applicable, as most recently quoted on
Telerate Page 3750.

         "LIBOR Business Day" means any day on which banks in New York City and
the City of London are open for the transaction of international business.

         "LIBOR Determination Date" means, for each Interest Accrual Period, the
second LIBOR Business Day before the beginning of that Interest Accrual Period.

         "Reference Banks" means four major banks in the London interbank market
selected by the Trustee.

         "Telerate Page 3750" means the display page so designated on the Bridge
Telerate Capital Markets Report or any other page that may replace that page on
that service for the purpose of displaying comparable rates or prices.

         The Trustee shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with
the foregoing and will confirm in writing such calculation to the Company and
the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) immediately after each
determination. All determinations made by the Trustee shall be, in the absence
of manifest error, conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Company and
Holders of the Notes. At the request of the Holder hereof, the Trustee will
provide to the Holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if
determined, the interest rate which will become effective as of the next
Interest Accrual Period.

         If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be
continuing, the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least
25% in principal amount of all of the outstanding Notes, by notice to the
Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of all the Notes due and
payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes at any time by the Company
and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding. The Indenture also
contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, on behalf of
the Holders of all Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain
provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall
be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon future Holders of this Note
and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Note.

         Holders of Notes may not enforce their rights pursuant to the Indenture
or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. No reference herein to the
Indenture and no provision of this Note or the Indenture shall alter or impair
the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the
principal of and interest on this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the
coin or currency, herein prescribed.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note register of
the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the
office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Company, and this Note duly executed by, the Holder
hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing and thereupon one or more
new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $1,000 or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral
multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Notes of different authorized denomination as requested by
the Holder surrendering the same.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         Prior to the due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer,
the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat
the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                                 MASTER LEASE

      THIS MASTER LEASE (This "Lease") is made and entered into effective as
of 12:01 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on June 8, 2000 (the "Effective Time") by
and between FFCA ACQUISITION CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Lessor"),
and THE WESTERN SIZZLIN CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Lessee").

      1.     LEASE OF PROPERTIES.  Subject to the terms, conditions,
covenants, and restrictions contained in this Lease, Lessor leases to Lessee
the parcels of real estate described by address, Lessor Number and Unit
Number in Exhibit A attached hereto and legally described in Exhibit A-1
attached hereto, all rights, privileges and appurtenances associated
therewith, all buildings, fixtures and other improvements now or hereafter
located thereon (whether or not affixed to such real estate), and all of
Lessor's right, title and interest in the tangible personal property located
thereon (collectively, the "Properties").

      2.     CHARACTERIZATION OF LEASE.  A.  Lessor and Lessee intend that:

             (i)  this Lease constitutes a single master lease of all, but
not less than all, of the Properties and that Lessor and Lessee have executed
and delivered this Lease with the understanding that this Lease constitutes a
unitary, unseverable instrument pertaining to all, but not less than all, of
the Properties, and that neither this Lease nor the duties, obligations or
rights of Lessee may be allocated or otherwise divided among the Properties
by Lessee;

             (ii)  this Lease is a "true lease" and not a financing lease,
capital lease, mortgage, equitable mortgage, deed of trust, trust agreement,
security agreement or other financing or trust arrangement, and the economic
realities of this Lease are those of a true lease; and

             (iii)  the business relationship created by this Lease and any
related documents is solely that of a short-term commercial lease between
landlord and tenant and has been entered into by both parties in reliance upon
the economic and legal bargains contained herein.

      B.     Lessor and Lessee acknowledge and agree that the Term (as
defined in Section 4 below), including any term extensions provided for in
this Lease, is less than the remaining economic life of each of the
Properties.

      C.     Lessee represents and warrants to Lessor that (i) the Base Rental
(as defined in Section 9 below) is the fair market value for the use of the
Properties under these specific circumstances, and was agreed to by Lessor
and Lessee on that basis, and (ii) the execution, delivery and performance by
Lessee of this Lease does not constitute a transfer of all or any part of the
Properties.

<PAGE>

      D.    The expressions of intent, the waivers, the representations and
warranties, the covenants, the agreements and the stipulations set forth in
this Section are a material inducement to Lessor entering into this Lease.

      3.    OPERATION OF PROPERTIES.  (a) Upon the terms and conditions of
this Lease, Lessee agrees to: (i) use reasonable diligence throughout the
Term to conduct business at each of the Properties as a Permitted COncept (as
defined in Section 5 below); (ii) furnish Lessor, within 10 days of request
by Lessor, such statements of account as Lessor may reasonably require with
respect to the receipts, expenses and charges incurred at the Properties
during the Term; and (iii) maintain evidence of all such receipts, expenses
and charges that will be available for inspection by Lessor at all reasonable
times.

      (b)   Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, including,
without limitation, all applicable requirements to obtain Lessor's consent
prior to undertaking certain activities, Lessee agrees to use its reasonable
efforts to accomplish the performance of, all of the following acts:

            (i)    To operate each of the Properties as a Permitted Concept.

            (ii)   To do all things necessary to ensure that the Properties
      are maintained in at least the general condition they are in as of the
      Effective Time, normal wear and tear excepted.

            (iii)  To hire, discharge, and supervise all labor and employees
      required for the operation of each of the Properties as a Permitted
      Concept commencing as of the Effective Time. All employees will be
      employees of Lessee and not employees of Lessor.

            (iv)   Lessee shall not be liable for any claims, liabilities,
      taxes, assessments or other obligations that arise prior to the Effective
      Time.

      4.    TERM AND TERMINATION.  (a) The obligations of Lessee under this
Lease will commence at the Effective Time and will continue until 11:59 p.m.
Eastern Standard Time on September 30, 2000, unless terminated earlier as
provided in the following subsection (b). The period of time while this Lease
is in effect is referred to as the "Term". By mutual agreement, the parties
hereto may extend the Term.

      (b)   This Lease may be terminated by Lessor at any time during the
Term upon the occurrence of an "Event of Default" if Lessee has not cured such
"Event of Default" within ten (10) days after written notice to Lessee. For
purposes of this Lease, "Event of Default" means: (i) any act or omission by
Lessee which constitutes gross negligence, willful malfeasance or fraud which
is not reasonably disputed or explained by Lessee to Lessor's reasonable
satisfaction within such ten (10) day period; (ii) any material breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of Lessee set forth in this Lease; or
(iii) any assignment for the benefit of creditors, filing of a petition of
bankruptcy or similar event by Lessee. Upon the occurrence of an "Event of
Default", Lessor shall be entitled to exercise all remedies available at law
or in equity, including, without limitation, taking such actions as may be
required to obtain possession of the Properties and to receive any sums due
Lessor under this Lease.

<PAGE>

      (c)   Upon the expiration of the Term or the earlier termination of
this Lease as contemplated in the preceding subsection (b), Lessee will
immediately vacate the Properties and deliver possession of the Properties to
Lessor without limiting Lessee's obligations pursuant to Section 9.

      5.    OPERATION AND USE OF THE PROPERTIES. Each of the Properties shall
be used solely for the operation of a Permitted Concept and for no other
purpose. Except as set forth below, and except during  periods when any
Property is untenantable by reason of fire or other casualty or condemnation
(provided, however, during all such periods while any Property is
untenantable, Lessee shall strictly comply with the terms and conditions of
this Lease), Lessee shall at all times during the Term occupy each of the
Properties and shall diligently operate its business on each of the
Properties. Lessee may cease diligent operation of business at any of the
Properties only with Lessor's prior consent, or at the end of the Term.
Lessee shall not convert any of the Properties to an alternative use during
the Term without Lessor's consent. Lessee, in its use, occupancy and
maintenance of the Properties, shall comply with all requirements adopted for
Permitted Concepts.

      For purposes of this Lease, the term "Permitted Concepts" shall mean a
Quincy's Restaurant, a Western Sizzlin Restaurant, any other restaurant
concept operated by The Western Sizzlin Corporation or its affiliates, or any
other restaurant concept mutually acceptable to Lessor and Lessee.

      6.    COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND ENCUMBRANCES.
Lessee's use and occupation of each of the Properties, and the condition
thereof, shall, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, comply fully with (i) all
applicable statutes, regulations, rules, ordinances, codes, licenses,
permits, orders and approvals of each governmental authority having
jurisdiction over the Properties, including, without limitation, all health,
building, fire, safety and other codes, ordinances and requirements and all
applicable standards of the National Board of Fire Underwriters and all
policies or rules of common law, in each case, as amended, and any judicial
or administrative interpretation thereof, including any judicial order,
consent, decree or judgment applicable to Lessee, and (ii) all restrictions,
covenants and encumbrances of record with respect to each of the Properties.

      7.    QUIET ENJOYMENT.  So long as Lessee shall pay the rental and
other sums herein provided and shall keep and perform all of the terms,
covenants and conditions on its part herein contained, Lessee shall have,
subject and subordinate to Lessor's rights herein, the right to the peaceful
and quiet occupancy of the Properties.

      8.    CASUALTY OR CONDEMNATION.  A. In case of a casualty to any of the
Properties or a taking of all or any part of any of the Properties or the
commencement of any proceedings or negotiations which might result in a
taking for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or
authority by exercise of the right of condemnation or eminent domain or by
agreement between Lessor, Lessee and those authorized to exercise such right,
Lessee will promptly give written notice thereof to Lessor, generally
describing the nature and extent of such casualty or taking and including
copies of any documents or notices received in connection therewith. Lessor
shall be entitled to receive all awards and payments resulting from any such
casualty or taking and Lessor shall be entitled to file and negotiate all
claims for such awards and payments. Lessee assigns to Lessor all of Lessee's
right, title and interest in and to every award or payment

<PAGE>

resulting from any such casualty or taking. Lessor shall be entitled to keep
all awards or payments or, at Lessor's election, apply such awards or payments
toward the restoration of the applicable Properties. This Lease shall not
terminate as a result of any such casualty or taking and the Base Rental
shall not be adjusted as a result of such casualty or taking.

      9.    RENT.  On or before the last day of each calendar month throughout
the Term, Lessee will remit to Lessor base rental for such calendar month in
the amount of $750,000.00 (the "Base Rental"). The prorated Base Rental payable
for the month of June, 2000 shall be $575,000.00 The Base Rental shall be
paid in immediately available funds by wire transfer to such bank account as
Lessor may designate.

      10.   ALTERATIONS.  Lessee shall not commit actual or constructive
waste upon any of the Properties. During the Term, Lessee shall not undertake
any maintenance or repairs of the Properties in excess of $1,000.00 per item
of maintenance or repair and no more than $3,000.00 per Property during the
Term, without Lessor's prior consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or conditioned, and Lessee shall not alter the exterior, interior,
structural, nonstructural, plumbing or electrical elements of any of the
Properties in any manner without the consent of Lessor, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned. Any addition to or alteration of
any of the Properties shall be deemed a part of such Property and belong to
Lessor, and Lessee shall execute and deliver to Lessor such instruments as
Lessor may require to evidence the ownership by Lessor of such addition or
alteration.

      11.   INSURANCE.  Throughout the Term Lessee shall maintain with
respect to the Properties, at its sole expense, the following types and
amounts of insurance (which may be included under a blanket insurance policy
if all the other terms hereof are satisfied), in addition to such other
insurance as Lessor may reasonably require from time to time:

            A.    Insurance against loss, damage or destruction by fire and
other casualty, including theft, vandalism and malicious mischief, flood (if
any of the Properties are in a location designated by the Federal Emergency
Management Administration as a Special Flood Hazard Area), earthquake (if any
of the Properties are in an area subject to destructive earthquakes within
recorded history), boiler explosion (if there is any boiler upon any of the
Properties), plate glass breakage, sprinkler damage (if any of the Properties
has a sprinkler system), all matters covered by a standard extended coverage
endorsement, all matters covered by a special coverage endorsement commonly
known as an "all risk" endorsement, and such other risks as Lessor may
reasonably require, insuring the Properties for not less than 100% of their
full insurable replacement cost.

            B.    Comprehensive general liability and property damage
insurance, including a products liability clause, covering Lessor and Lessee
against bodily injury liability, property damage liability and automobile
bodily injury and property damage liability, including without limitation any
liability arising out of the ownership, maintenance, repair, condition or
operation of the Properties or adjoining ways, streets or sidewalks and, if
applicable, insurance covering Lessor and Lessee against liability arising
from the sale of liquor, beer or wine on the Properties. Such insurance
policy or policies shall contain a broad form contractual liability
endorsement and a "severability of interest" clause or endorsement which
precludes the insurer from denying the claim of Lessee or Lessor because of
the

<PAGE>

negligence or other acts of the other, shall be in amounts of not less than
$1,000,000.00 per injury and occurrence with respect to any insured
liability, whether for personal injury or property damage, or such higher
limits as Lessor may reasonably require from time to time, and shall be of
form and substance satisfactory to Lessor.

      C.     State Worker's compensation insurance in the statutorily mandated
limits, employer's liability insurance with limits not less that $500,000 or
such greater amount as Lessor may from time to time require and such other
insurance as may be necessary to comply with applicable laws.

      All insurance policies shall:

           (i)     Provide for a waiver of subrogation by the insurer as to
      claims against Lessor or its employees and agents and provide that such
      insurance cannot be unreasonably cancelled, invalidated or suspended on
      account of the conduct of Lessee, its officers, directors, employees or
      agents;

           (ii)     Provide that any "no other insurance" clause in the
      insurance policy shall exclude any policies of insurance maintained by
      Lessor and that the insurance policy shall not be brought into
      contribution with insurance maintained by Lessor;

           (iii)    Contain a standard without contribution mortgage clause
      endorsement in favor of any lender designated by Lessor;

           (iv)     Provide that the policy of insurance shall not be
      terminated, cancelled or substantially modified without at least thirty
      (30) days' prior written notice to Lessor and to any lender covered by
      any standard mortgage clause endorsement;

           (v)      Provide that the insurer shall not have the option to
      restore the Properties if Lessor elects to terminate this Lease in
      accordance with the terms hereof;

           (vi)     Be issued by insurance companies licensed to do business
      in the states in which the Properties are located and which are rated
      A:VI or better by Best's Insurance Guide or are otherwise approved by
      Lessor; and

           (vii)    Provide that the insurer shall not deny a claim because
      of the negligence of Lessee, anyone acting for Lessee or any tenant or
      other occupant of the Properties.

It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing minimum limits of
insurance coverage shall not limit the liability of Lessee for its acts or
omissions as provided in this Lease.  All insurance policies (with the
exception of worker's compensation insurance to the extent not available
under statutory law) shall designate Lessor and any mortgagee of Lessor as
additional insureds as their interests may appear and shall be payable to
Lessor.  All such policies shall be written as primary

<PAGE>

policies, with deductibles not to exceed 10% of the amount of coverage.  Any
other policies, including any policy now or hereafter carried by Lessor,
shall serve as excess coverage. Lessee shall procure policies for all
insurance for periods of not less than one year and shall provide to Lessor
and any lender of Lessor certificates of insurance or, upon Lessor's request,
duplicate originals of insurance policies evidencing that insurance
satisfying the requirements of this Lease is in effect at all times.

Indemnified Party arising out of such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or

obligations under this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease for any reason.

      has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing
      under the laws of the State of Delaware. All necessary corporate action
      has been taken to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by
      Lessor of this Lease and the other documents, instruments and
