         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce
Lender to make the Loans and to issue Letters of Credit under the Loan
Agreement, the New Subsidiary hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees

         SECTION 1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used herein without

definitions shall have the respective meanings provided therefor in the Loan
Agreement. The term "State", as used herein, means the Commonwealth of Virginia.
All terms defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State and used herein
shall have the same definitions herein as specified therein. However, if a term

than in another Article of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State, the term
has the meaning specified in Article 8.9A of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
State. In addition, as used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have
the meanings assigned to them below, which meanings shall be equally applicable
to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined.

          -------------------
following, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the New Subsidiary: all
property included within the

definitions of "accounts," "chattel paper," "documents" and "instruments" and
"payment intangibles" set forth in the UCC.

         "Collateral" means the following properties, assets and rights of the

property of every kind and nature including without limitation all goods
(including inventory, equipment and any accessions thereto), instruments
(including promissory notes), documents, accounts (including
health-care-insurance receivables), chattel paper (whether tangible or
electronic), deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights (whether or not the

pledges to Lender, and hereby grants to Lender a security interest in all of its
right, title and interest in and to the Collateral, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired by the New Subsidiary, including all proceeds of any and all
of the foregoing or hereinafter-described Collateral (including, without
limitation, proceeds that constitute property of the types described herein)
and, to the extent not otherwise included, all policies of insurance on any
property of the New Subsidiary and all payments and proceeds under any such
insurance (whether or not Lender is the loss payee thereof), or any indemnity,
warranty or guaranty payable by reason of loss or damage to or otherwise with
respect to any of the foregoing Collateral; all cash; all books of account and
records, including all computer software relating thereto; provided that the
foregoing assignment, pledge and grant shall not attach to the Collateral unless

of all Obligations of the New Subsidiary now or hereafter existing or arising.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures the
payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed
by the New Subsidiary to Lender under the Loan Agreement and the Notes but for
the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a
bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the New Subsidiary.

         SECTION 4. Borrowers Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary
                    -----------------------

perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if
this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by Lender of any of the
rights hereunder shall not release any of the Borrowers from any of their

respective duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in
the Collateral, and (c) Lender shall not have any obligation or liability under
the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this
Agreement, nor shall Lender be obligated to perform any of the obligations or
duties of any of Borrowers thereunder or to take any action to collect or
enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

                    ------------------

                  (a) The New Subsidiary hereby irrevocably authorizes the
Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any Uniform Commercial Code
jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (1)
indicate the Collateral (i) as all assets of the New Subsidiary or words of
similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the
Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9A of the Uniform Commercial Code
of the State or such jurisdiction, or (ii) as being of an equal or lesser scope
or with greater detail, and (2) contain any other information required by part 5

Commercial Code jurisdiction any like initial financing statements or amendments
thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.

                  (b) The New Subsidiary will furnish to Lender from time to
time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral

<PAGE>

                  (c) Without providing at least 30 days prior written notice to
Lender, the New Subsidiary will not change its name, its type of organization,
jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure, its place of business or,
if more than one, chief executive office, or its mailing address or
organizational identification number if it has one. If the New Subsidiary does
not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, the New
Subsidiary shall forthwith notify Lender of such organizational identification
number.

         SECTION 7. Other Actions. Further to insure the attachment, perfection
                    -------------
and first priority of, and the ability of Lender to enforce, Lender's security
interest in the Collateral, the New Subsidiary agrees, in each case at its own
expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Collateral:

                  (a) If the New Subsidiary shall at any time hold or acquire
any promissory notes or tangible chattel paper, the New Subsidiary shall
forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to Lender, accompanied by such
instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Lender may from
time to time specify.

                  (b) For each deposit account that the New Subsidiary at any
time opens or maintains, the New Subsidiary shall, at Lender's request and
option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender,
either (1) cause the depositary bank to agree to comply at any time with
instructions from Lender to such depositary bank directing the disposition of
funds from time to time credited to such deposit account, without further
consent of the New Subsidiary, or (2) arrange for Lender to become the customer
of the depositary bank with respect to the deposit account, with the New
Subsidiary being permitted, only with the consent of Lender, to exercise rights
to withdraw funds from such deposit account. Lender agrees with the New
Subsidiary that Lender shall not give any such instructions or withhold any
withdrawal rights from the New Subsidiary, unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any withdrawal not
otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, would occur. The provisions of this
paragraph shall not apply to (i) any deposit account for which the New
Subsidiary, the depositary bank and Lender have entered into a cash collateral
agreement specially negotiated among the New Subsidiary, the depositary bank and
Lender for the specific purpose set forth therein, (ii) deposit accounts for
which Lender is the depositary and (iii) deposit accounts specially and
exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit
payments to or for the benefit of the New Subsidiary's salaried employees.

                  (c) If the New Subsidiary shall at any time hold or acquire
any certificated securities, the New Subsidiary shall forthwith endorse, assign
and deliver the same to Lender, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or
assignment duly executed in blank as Lender may from time to time specify. If
any securities now or hereafter acquired by the New Subsidiary are
uncertificated and are issued to the New Subsidiary or its nominee directly by
the

                                       5

<PAGE>

issuer thereof, the New Subsidiary shall immediately notify Lender thereof and,
at Lender's request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender, either (1) cause the issuer to agree to comply with
instructions from Lender as to such securities, without further consent of the
New Subsidiary or such nominee, or (2) arrange for Lender to become the
registered owner of the securities. If any securities, whether certificated or
uncertificated, or other investment property now or hereafter acquired by the
New Subsidiary are held by the New Subsidiary or its nominee through a
securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, the New Subsidiary shall
immediately notify Lender thereof and, at Lender's request and option, pursuant
to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, either (i) cause
such securities intermediary or (as the case may be) commodity intermediary to
agree to comply with entitlement orders or other instructions from Lender to
such securities intermediary as to such securities or other investment property,
or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account of any
commodity contract as directed by Lender to such commodity intermediary, in each
case without further consent of the New Subsidiary or such nominee, or (ii) in
the case of financial assets or other investment property held through a
securities intermediary, arrange for Lender to become the entitlement holder
with respect to such investment property, with the New Subsidiary being
permitted, only with the consent of Lender, to exercise rights to withdraw or
otherwise deal with such investment property. Lender agrees with the New
Subsidiary that Lender shall not give any such entitlement orders or
instructions or directions to any such issuer, securities intermediary or
commodity intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of
any withdrawal or dealing rights by the New Subsidiary, unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any such
investment and withdrawal rights not otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents,
would occur. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any financial
assets credited to a securities account for which Lender is the securities
intermediary.

                  (d) If any goods are at any time in the possession of a
bailee, the New Subsidiary shall promptly notify Lender thereof and, if
requested by Lender, shall promptly obtain an acknowledgement from the bailee,
in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, that the bailee holds such
Collateral for the benefit of Lender and shall act upon the instructions of
Lender, without the further consent of the New Subsidiary. Lender agrees with
the New Subsidiary that Lender shall not give any such instructions unless an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into
account any action by the New Subsidiary with respect to the bailee.

                  (e) If the New Subsidiary at any time holds or acquires an
interest in 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 ss.l6 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions
Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, the New Subsidiary shall promptly
notify Lender thereof and, at the request of Lender, shall take such action as
Lender may reasonably request to vest in Lender control, under ss.9-105 of the
Uniform Commercial Code, of such electronic chattel paper or control under
Section 201 of the federal Electronic

                                       6

<PAGE>

Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, ss.16 of
the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction,
of such transferable record. Lender agrees with the New Subsidiary that Lender
will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to Lender and so long as such
procedures will not result in Lender's loss of control, for the New Subsidiary
to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper or transferable record
permitted under UCC ss.9-105 or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or ss.16 of the
Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to make without loss
of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would
occur after taking into account any action by the New Subsidiary with respect to
such electronic chattel paper or transferable record.

                  (f) If the New Subsidiary is at any time a beneficiary under a
letter of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of the New Subsidiary, the New
Subsidiary shall promptly notify Lender thereof and, at the request and option
of Lender, the New Subsidiary shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender, either (1) arrange for the issuer and any
confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to Lender of the
proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (2) arrange for Lender to
become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with Lender agreeing,
in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter to credit are to
be applied to the payment of the Obligations.

                  (g) If the New Subsidiary shall at any time hold or acquire a
commercial tort claim, the New Subsidiary shall immediately notify Lender in a
writing signed by the New Subsidiary of the brief details thereof and grant to
Lender 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 satisfactory to Lender.

                  (h) The New Subsidiary further agrees to take any other action
reasonably requested by Lender to insure the attachment, perfection and first
priority of, and the ability of Lender to enforce, Lender's security interest in
any and all of the Collateral including, without limitation, (1) executing,
delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments
relating thereto under the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent, if any, that
the New Subsidiary's signature thereon is required therefor, (2) causing
Lender's name to be noted as Lender on any certificate of title for a titled
good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of,
or ability of Lender to enforce, Lender's security interest in such Collateral,
(3) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the
United States as to any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a
condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Lender to
enforce, Lender's security interest in such Collateral, (4) obtaining
governmental and other third party consents and approvals, including without
limitation any consent of any licensor, lessor or other person obligated on
Collateral, (5) obtaining waivers from mortgagees and landlords in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender and (6) taking all actions required by any
earlier versions of the Uniform Commercial Code or by

                                       7

<PAGE>

other law, as applicable in any relevant Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction,
or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction.

         SECTION 8. Covenants Concerning Collateral, Etc.  The New Subsidiary
                    ------------------------------------
further covenants with Lender as follows:

                  (a) The Collateral, to the extent not delivered to Lender
pursuant to this Agreement, will be kept at those locations listed on Schedule 1
                                                                      ----------
attached hereto and the New Subsidiary will not remove the Collateral from such
locations, without providing at least 30 days prior written notice to Lender.

                  (b) Except for the security interest herein granted and Liens
permitted by the Loan Agreement, the New Subsidiary shall be the owner of or
have other rights in the Collateral free from any Lien, security interest or
other encumbrance, and the New Subsidiary shall defend the same against all
claims and demands of all persons at any time claiming the same or any interests
therein adverse to Lender.

                  (c) The New Subsidiary shall not pledge, mortgage or create,
or suffer to exist a security interest in the Collateral in favor of any person
other than Lender except for Liens permitted by the Loan Agreement.

                  (d) The New Subsidiary will keep the Collateral in good order
and repair and will not use the same in violation of law or any policy of
insurance thereon.

                  (e) As provided in the Loan Agreement, the New Subsidiary will
permit Lender, or its designee, to inspect the Collateral at any reasonable
time, wherever located.

                  (f) The New Subsidiary will pay promptly when due all taxes,
assessments, governmental charges and levies upon the Collateral or incurred in
connection with the use or operation of such Collateral or incurred in
connection with this Agreement.

                  (g) The New Subsidiary will continue to operate, its business
in compliance with all applicable provisions of the federal Fair Labor Standards
Act, as amended, and with all applicable provisions of federal, state and local
statutes and ordinances dealing with the control, shipment, storage or disposal
of hazardous materials or substances.

                  (h) The New Subsidiary will not sell or otherwise dispose, or

in the ordinary course of business and (2) so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, sales or other dispositions of obsolescent items of
equipment in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, and

         SECTION 9. Insurance.  The New Subsidiary agrees as follows:
                    ---------

                  (a) The New Subsidiary shall, at its own expense, maintain
insurance with respect to the Collateral in such amounts, against such risks, in
such form and with such insurers, as shall be satisfactory to Lender from time
to time. Each policy for liability insurance shall provide for all losses to be
paid on behalf of Lender and the New Subsidiary as their respective interests
may appear, and each policy for property damage insurance shall provide for all
losses to be paid directly to Lender. Each such policy shall in addition (1)
name the New Subsidiary and Lender as insured parties thereunder (without any
representation or warranty by or obligation upon Lender) as their interests may
appear, (2) contain the agreement by the insurer that any loss thereunder shall
be payable to Lender notwithstanding any action, inaction or breach of
representation or warranty by the New Subsidiary, (3) provide that there shall
be no recourse against Lender for payment of premiums or other amounts with
respect thereto, and (4) provide that at least ten days' prior written notice of
cancellation or of lapse shall be given to Lender by the insurer. The New
Subsidiary shall, if so requested by Lender, deliver to Lender original or
duplicate policies of such insurance, together with such endorsements as may be
required by Lender, and, as often as Lender may reasonably request, a report of
a reputable insurance broker with respect to such insurance. Further, the New
Subsidiary shall, at the request of Lender, duly execute and deliver instruments
of assignment of such insurance policies to comply with the requirements of
Section 6 and cause the insurers to acknowledge notice of such assignment.

                  (b) Reimbursement under any liability insurance maintained by
the New Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 9 may be paid directly to the person
who shall have incurred liability covered by such insurance. In case of any loss
involving damage to Collateral when Section 9(c) is not applicable, the New
Subsidiary shall make or cause to be made the necessary repairs to or
replacements of such Collateral, and any proceeds of insurance maintained by the
New Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 9 shall be paid to the New Subsidiary as
reimbursement for the costs of such repairs or replacements.

                  (c) Upon (1) the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, or (2) the actual or constructive total loss (in excess of
$50,000 per occurrence) of any Collateral, all insurance payments in respect of
such Equipment or Inventory shall be paid to and applied by Lender as specified
in Section 15(b).

         SECTION 10. As to Accounts Receivable and General Intangibles.
                     -------------------------------------------------

                  (a) The New Subsidiary shall keep its chief place of business
and chief executive office and the office where it keeps its records concerning
the Accounts Receivable and the General Intangibles at 2801 Clarendon Boulevard,
Suite 100, Arlington, Virginia 22201 or, upon 45 days' prior written notice to
Lender, at any other location in a jurisdiction where all

                                       9

<PAGE>

actions required by Section 6, shall have been taken with respect to the
Accounts Receivable. The New Subsidiary will hold and preserve such records and
will permit representatives of Lender at any time during normal business hours
to inspect and make abstracts from such records.

                  (b) The New Subsidiary shall immediately notify Lender of (1)
any dispute in excess of $1,000,000 with a Customer, and (2) the bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or suspension
of business of any such Customer of which the New Subsidiary has knowledge. The
New Subsidiary shall not compromise or discount any Account Receivable without
the prior written consent of Lender except for (i) ordinary trade discounts or
allowances for prompt payment, and (ii) prior to the occurrence of a Default or
an Event of Default, such compromises or discounts that, after giving effect
thereto, will not cause 85% of the Borrowing Base to be less than the unpaid
principal balance of Funded Debt then outstanding.

                  (c) If required by Lender, upon the occurrence of a Default or
an Event of Default, the New Subsidiary shall establish a lockbox for the
account of the New Subsidiary with Lender and shall direct all Customers to make
payments on Accounts Receivable to such lockbox by printing such direction on
all invoices given to Customers. The New Subsidiary also shall remit to such
lockbox all payments on Accounts Receivable received by the New Subsidiary, all
such payments to be received in trust for the benefit of Lender hereunder, and
shall be segregated from other funds of the New Subsidiary. Such payments shall
be remitted or delivered to such lockbox in their original form on the day of
receipt. All notes, checks and other instruments so received by the New
Subsidiary shall be duly endorsed to the order of Lender. The payments remitted
to the lockbox shall be credited to a cash collateral account maintained by
Lender in the name of the New Subsidiary over which Lender shall have the
exclusive power of withdrawal. After final collection, funds credited to the
cash collateral account shall be retained in the cash collateral account and be
held as security for the Obligations, and funds in the cash collateral account
may be applied to the Obligations by Lender from time to time, whether or not
such Obligations are then due.

                  (d) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10(c) or this
Section 10(d), the New Subsidiary shall continue to collect, at its own expense,
all amounts due or to become due to the New Subsidiary under the Accounts
Receivable. In connection with such collections, the New Subsidiary may take
(and, at Lender's direction, shall take) such action as the New Subsidiary or
Lender may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Accounts
Receivable; provided, however, that Lender shall have the right, upon the
            --------  -------
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and upon written
notice to the New Subsidiary of its intention to do so, to notify Customers of
the assignment of the applicable Accounts Receivable to Lender and, at the
expense of the New Subsidiary, to enforce collection of any such Accounts
Receivable, and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof,
in the same manner and to the same extent as the New Subsidiary might have done.
After receipt by the

                                       10

<PAGE>

New Subsidiary of the notice from Lender referred to in the proviso to the
preceding sentence, the New Subsidiary shall not adjust, settle or compromise
the amount or payment of any Account Receivable, release any Customer wholly or
partly with respect thereto, or allow any credit or discount thereon.

                  (e) Upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default,
Lender shall have the right, to facilitate direct collection, to take over the
New Subsidiary's post office boxes or make other arrangements, with which the
New Subsidiary shall cooperate, to receive the New Subsidiary's mail.

                  (f) After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the New
Subsidiary shall execute all other agreements, instruments and documents and
shall perform all further acts that Lender may require with respect to Accounts
Receivable owing by the Government to ensure compliance with the Assignment of
Claims Act.

         SECTION 11. Defense of Collateral. The New Subsidiary, at its expense,
                     ---------------------
shall defend the Collateral against any claims or demands adverse to the
Security Party's security interest granted hereunder and shall promptly pay,
when due, all taxes or assessments levied against such the New Subsidiary on the
Collateral.

         SECTION 12. Lender Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. The New Subsidiary
                     ---------------------------------
hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as the New Subsidiary's attorney-in-fact
(such power being coupled with an interest), with full authority in the place
and stead of the New Subsidiary and in the name of the New Subsidiary or
otherwise, from time to time in Lender's discretion, to take any action and to
execute any instrument that Lender may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish
the purposes of this Agreement (subject to the rights of the New Subsidiary
under Section 10), including, without limitation:

                  (a) To obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to
Lender pursuant to Section 9;

                  (b) To ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise,
receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under
or in connection with the Collateral;

                  (c) To receive, indorse, and collect any drafts or other
instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection therewith; and

                  (d) To file any claims or take any action or institute any
proceedings that Lender may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of
any of the Collateral, or otherwise to enforce the rights of the New Subsidiary
or Lender with respect to any of the Collateral.

                                       11

<PAGE>

         SECTION 13. Lender May Perform. If any Borrower fails to perform any
                     ------------------
covenant or agreement contained herein, Lender may itself perform, or cause
performance of, such covenant or agreement, and the expenses of Lender incurred
in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the highest per annum
interest rate in effect under the Loan Agreement plus 3.0%, shall be payable by
such Borrower to Lender on demand and shall constitute Obligations.

         SECTION 14. Lender's Duties. The powers conferred on Lender hereunder
                     ---------------
are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any
duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any
Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by
it hereunder, Lender shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking
of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other
rights pertaining to any Collateral. Lender shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its
possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that
which Lender accords its own property.

         SECTION 15. Remedies.  If any Event of Default shall have occurred and
                     --------
be continuing:

                  (a) Lender may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in
addition to any other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise
available to it, all the rights and remedies of a Lender on default under the
UCC (to the extent that the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and also
may (1) require the New Subsidiary to, and the New Subsidiary hereby agrees that
it shall, at its expense and upon request of Lender, forthwith assemble all or
part of the Collateral as directed by Lender and make it available to Lender at
a place to be designated by Lender that is reasonably convenient to both
parties, and (2) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral
or any part thereof, whether in its then-condition or after further preparation
or processing, either at public or private sale or at any broker's board, in
lots or in bulk, at any time or place, in one or more parcels, at any of
Lender's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and
upon such other terms as Lender may deem commercially reasonable. The New
Subsidiary agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law,
at least ten days' notice to the New Subsidiary of the time and place of any
public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall
constitute reasonable notification. Lender shall not be obligated to make any
sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Lender 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. At any such sale Lender may be
the purchaser, subject to the applicable provisions of the UCC.

                  (b) Any cash held by Lender as Collateral and all cash
proceeds received by Lender in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of
Lender, be held by Lender as collateral for, and then or at any time thereafter
be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to Lender pursuant to Section
17) in whole or in part by Lender against all or any part of the Obligations in
such order

                                       12

<PAGE>

as Lender shall elect. Any deficiency shall be paid to Lender by the New
Subsidiary forthwith upon demand, and any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds
held by Lender and remaining after payment in full of all the Obligations shall
be paid over to the New Subsidiary or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to
receive such surplus.

                  (c) The New Subsidiary recognizes that, by reason of certain
prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable
state securities laws, Lender may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all
or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree,
among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for
investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The New
Subsidiary acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on
terms less favorable to Lender than those obtainable through a public sale
without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that
any such private sale per se shall not be deemed to have been made in a
commercially unreasonable manner and that Lender shall have no obligation to
engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for
the period of time necessary to permit the respective issuer thereof to register
it for public sale.

         SECTION 16. Private Sale. Lender shall incur no liability as a result
                     ------------
of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant
to Section 15(c) hereof conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. The New
Subsidiary hereby waives any claims against Lender arising by reason of the fact
that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale
was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was
less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if Lender accepts the
first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree
so long as such private sale was conducted in a commercially reasonable manner.

         SECTION 17. Indemnity and Expenses.  The New Subsidiary agrees as
                     ----------------------
follows:

                  (a) The New Subsidiary agrees to indemnify Lender from and
against any and all claims, losses and liabilities (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) growing out of or resulting from this Agreement (including,
without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except claims, losses or
liabilities resulting from Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                  (b) The New Subsidiary shall pay to Lender, upon demand, the
amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and
expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that Lender may incur in
connection with (1) the administration of this Agreement, (2) the custody,
preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, any of the Collateral, (3) the exercise or enforcement of any
of the rights of Lender hereunder, or (4) the failure by the New Subsidiary to
perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

                                       13

<PAGE>

                  (c) In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Lender
relating to the Collateral, the New Subsidiary will save, indemnify and keep
Lender harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason
of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability
whatsoever of the obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by the New
Subsidiary of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement,
indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such obligor or
its successors from the New Subsidiary, and all such obligations of the New
Subsidiary shall be and remain enforceable against and only against the New
Subsidiary and shall not be enforceable against Lender.

                  (d) The provisions of this Section 17 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Notes and all other
Obligations in full.

         SECTION 18. Security Interest Absolute.  All rights of Lender and
                     --------------------------
security interests hereunder, and all obligations of the New Subsidiary
hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of:

                  (a) Any lack of validity or enforceability of the Loan
Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document;

                  (b) 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 Loan Agreement, the Notes or
any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the
Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the New
Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise;

                  (c) Any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any
other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, consent to
or departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Obligations;

                  (d) Any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds
thereof, to all or any of the Obligations, or any manner of sale or other
disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Obligations or any other
assets of the New Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries;

                  (e) Any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate
structure or existence of the New Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries; or

                  (f) Any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a
defense available to, or a discharge of, the New Subsidiary or a third party
grantor of a security interest.

         SECTION 19. Waivers.
                     -------

                  (a)  THE NEW SUBSIDIARY, HAVING KNOWLEDGE THAT IT MAY BE
ENTITLED TO NOTICE AND A HEARING PRIOR TO REPOSSESSION OF THE

                                       14

<PAGE>

COLLATERAL, WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE UNDER EXISTING OR FUTURE LAW TO
NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE (OTHER THAN NOTICES REQUIRED BY THIS AGREEMENT) AND ANY
OTHER ACT DESCRIBED HEREIN OR IN ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, TO ANY HEARING THAT MAY BE
HELD RELATING TO FORECLOSURE OR ANY OTHER SUCH ACTS, AND TO ANY NOTICE THAT MAY
BE REQUIRED TO BE GIVEN BY LENDER PRIOR TO SUCH HEARING.

                  (b) The New Subsidiary waives any right to insist upon or
plead or in any way take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay,
marshalling of assets, extension, redemption or moratorium law now or hereafter
in force and effect so as to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement of the
provisions of this Agreement or any Loan Document or any rights or remedies
Lender may have hereunder or thereunder or at law or in equity.

         SECTION 20. Amendments, etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision
                     ----------
hereof, and no consent to any departure by the New Subsidiary herefrom, shall in
any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender,
and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance
and for the specific purpose for which given.

         SECTION 21. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications
                     ---------------------
provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopier, telegraphic,
telex or cable communication) and mailed, telecopied, telegraphed, telexed,
cabled, delivered by hand or sent, prepaid, by Federal Express (or a comparable
overnight delivery service) to the New Subsidiary and Lender at their respective
addresses specified in the Loan Agreement, or, as to either party, at such other
address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other
party. Any such notice or other communication, when mailed, telecopied,
telegraphed, telexed, cabled, delivered by hand or sent overnight, shall be
effective on the earliest of (a) the date it is actually received or telecopied,
telexed (confirmed by telex answerback), or delivered by hand, (b) the Business
Day after the day on which it is properly delivered to a telegraph or cable
company or to Federal Express (or a comparable overnight delivery service), as
applicable, or (c) the third Business Day after the day on which it is deposited
in the United States mail.

         SECTION 22. Continuing Security Interest. This Agreement shall create a
                     ----------------------------
continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full
force and effect until the later of (1) the payment in full of the Obligations,
and (2) the expiration or termination of Lender's commitment to make the Loans
and issue Letters of Credit, (b) be binding upon the New Subsidiary, its
successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by,
Lender and its successors, transferees and assigns. Upon the later of the
payment in full of the Obligations and the expiration or termination of the
commitments to make the Loans and issue Letters of Credit, the security interest
granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to
the New Subsidiary. Upon any such termination, Lender, at the New

                                       15

<PAGE>

Subsidiary's expense, shall execute and deliver to the New Subsidiary such
documents as the New Subsidiary shall reasonably request to evidence such
termination.

         SECTION 23. Governing Law; Terms; Jury Trial Waiver. This Agreement
                     ---------------------------------------
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State,
without reference to conflict of laws principles. Unless otherwise defined
herein or in the Loan Agreement, terms used in Article 9 of the UCC are used
herein as therein defined. THE NEW SUBSIDIARY HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LITIGATION IN ANY COURT WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ENFORCEMENT OR
COLLECTION OF THE OBLIGATIONS.

                     COLLATERAL ASSIGNMENT, PATENT MORTGAGE
                             AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

 ----------
accordance with the provisions set forth below, from THE MARASCO NEWTON GROUP
LTD., a Virginia corporation (the "New Subsidiary"), in favor of SUNTRUST BANK,
                                   --------------
a Georgia banking corporation ("Assignee").
                                --------

                                    RECITALS
                                    --------

         Assignee has entered into a Loan Agreement dated as of August 15, 2001
(as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the "Loan Agreement,"
                                                              --------------
the terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein being used herein as
therein defined) with SRA International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), Systems Research and Applications Corporation, a Virginia
---------
corporation ("SRA"), SRA Technical Services Center, Inc., a Delaware corporation
              ---
("STSC"), and each other Subsidiary that becomes a party to the Loan Agreement
  ----

                              ---------                      --------
Simultaneously herewith, the New Subsidiary shall enter into the Assumption
Agreement, dated as of 18 April 2002, with the Lender (as amended, modified or
supplemented from time to time, the "Assumption Agreement"), thereby becoming a
                                     --------------------
Borrower under the Loan Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions
thereof, and, by its execution and delivery hereof, the New Subsidiary shall
become an Assignor. It is a condition precedent to the making of the Loans and

this Assignment.

 ----------
grant and mortgage shall not become effective unless and until a Security Event

exclusive rights afforded a copyright registrant in the United States under 17
U.S.C. ss.106 and any exclusive rights which may in the future arise by act of
Congress or otherwise) and all present and future applications for copyright
registrations (including applications for copyright registrations of derivative
works and compilations) (collectively, the "Registered Copyrights"), and any and

THE INTEREST IN THE COLLATERAL BEING ASSIGNED HEREUNDER SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED
AS A CURRENT ASSIGNMENT, BUT AS A CONTINGENT ASSIGNMENT TO SECURE THE NEW
SUBSIDIARY'S OBLIGATIONS TO ASSIGNEE.

         This Assignment secures the payment of all obligations of the New
Subsidiary now or hereafter existing under the Loan Agreement, including, but
not limited to, the Loans, the Notes, and all obligations, indebtedness and
liabilities of the New Subsidiary under this Assignment and each Letter of
Credit Agreement, Letter of Credit Security Agreement, the Assumption Agreement
and other Loan Document, and all other obligations, indebtedness and liabilities
of the New Subsidiary to Assignee, whether now existing or hereafter arising,
whether or not evidenced by notes or other instruments, and whether such
obligations, indebtedness and liabilities are direct or indirect, fixed or
contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, due or to become due, joint, several, or
joint and several (all such obligations of the New Subsidiary being the
"Obligations"). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this
 -----------
Assignment secures the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the
Obligations and would be owed by the New Subsidiary to Assignee but for the fact
that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a
bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the New Subsidiary.

         2.       Authorization and Request.  The New Subsidiary authorizes and
                  --------------------------
requests that the Register of Copyrights and the Commissioner of Patents and
Trademarks record this conditional assignment.

         3.       Covenants and Warranties.  The New Subsidiary represents,
                  -------------------------
warrants, covenants and agrees as follows:

                                       3

<PAGE>

                  (a) The New Subsidiary is now the sole owner of its
Collateral, except for non-exclusive licenses granted by the New Subsidiary to
its Customers in the ordinary course of business.

                  (b) Listed on Exhibits A-1 and A-2 are all material Copyrights
owned by the New Subsidiary, in which the New Subsidiary has an interest
(excluding off-the-shelf licensed software and databases), or which are used in
the New Subsidiary's business. Listed on Exhibit A-3 are all material Licenses
pursuant to which the New Subsidiary has a right to use the Collateral, in which
the New Subsidiary has an interest (excluding off-the-shelf licensed software
and databases), or which are used in the New Subsidiary's business. Listed on
Exhibit B are all material Patents owned by the New Subsidiary, in which the New
Subsidiary has an interest, or which are licensed to the New Subsidiary for use
in the New Subsidiary's business. Listed on Exhibit C are all material
Trademarks owned by the New Subsidiary, in which the New Subsidiary has an
interest, or which are used in the New Subsidiary's business.

                  (c) Each employee, agent and/or independent contractor of the
New Subsidiary who has participated in the creation of the property constituting
the Collateral has either executed an assignment of his or her rights of
authorship to the New Subsidiary or is an employee of the New Subsidiary acting
within the scope of his or her employment and was such an employee at the time
of said creation.

                  (d) If required by Assignee after the occurrence of a Security
Event, all of the New Subsidiary's present and future Collateral (including,
without limitation, software, computer programs and other works of authorship)
subject or entitled to United States copyright, patent or trademark protection,
the sale, licensing or other disposition of which results in royalties
receivable, license fees receivable, accounts receivable or other sums owing to
the New Subsidiary (collectively, "Receivables"), shall be registered with the
                                   -----------
United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office,
as applicable, and the New Subsidiary shall provide to Assignee copies of all
such registrations promptly upon the receipt of the same.

                  (e) The New Subsidiary shall undertake all reasonable measures
to cause its employees, agents and independent contractors to assign to the New
Subsidiary all rights of authorship to any copyrighted material in which the New
Subsidiary has or may subsequently acquire any right or interest.

                  (f) Performance of this Assignment does not conflict with or
result in a breach of any agreement to which the New Subsidiary is bound, except
to the extent that certain intellectual property agreements prohibit the
disclosure of information or the assignment of the rights thereunder to a third
party without the licensor's or other party's consent and this Assignment
constitutes an assignment or requires such disclosure.

                  (g) During the term of this Assignment, without the prior
written consent of Assignee, the New Subsidiary will not transfer or otherwise
encumber any interest in the Collateral, except for non-exclusive licenses
granted by the New Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business or as set forth
in this Assignment.

                  (h) Each part of the Collateral is valid and enforceable, and
no part of the Collateral has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or
in part, and no claim has been made that any part of the Collateral violates the
rights of any third party.

                                       4

<PAGE>

                  (i) The New Subsidiary shall promptly advise Assignee of any
material change in the composition of the Collateral, including but not limited
to any subsequent ownership right of the New Subsidiary in or to any material
Trademark, Patent or Copyright not specified in this Assignment.

                  (j) The New Subsidiary shall (1) protect, defend and maintain
the validity and enforceability of the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights,
subject to the New Subsidiary's reasonable business judgment as to the value of
the Trademark, Patent or Copyright, and the cost of such defense, (2) use
commercially reasonable efforts to detect infringements of the Trademarks,
Patents and Copyrights and promptly advise Assignee in writing of material
infringements detected, and (3) not allow any Trademarks, Patents, or Copyrights
to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public without the written
consent of Assignee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless the New
Subsidiary determines that reasonable business practices suggest that
abandonment is appropriate.

                  (k) The New Subsidiary shall promptly register the most recent
version of any of its Copyrights, Trademarks or Patents, if not so already
registered, that are material to its business, and shall, from time to time,
execute and file such other instruments, and take such further actions as
Assignee may reasonably request from time to time to perfect or continue the
perfection of Assignee's interest in the Collateral.

                  (l) This Assignment creates, and in the case of after acquired
Collateral, this Assignment will create at the time the New Subsidiary first has
rights in such after acquired Collateral, in favor of Assignee a valid and
perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral in the United
States securing the payment and performance of the Obligations upon making the
filings referred to in clause (m) below.

                  (m) To its knowledge, except for, and upon, the filing with
the United States Patent and Trademark Office with respect to the Patents and
Trademarks and the Register of Copyrights with respect to the Copyrights
necessary to perfect the security interests and assignment created hereunder and
except as has been already made or obtained, no authorization, approval or other
action by, and no notice to or filing with, any U.S. governmental authority or
U.S. regulatory body is required either (1) for the grant by the New Subsidiary
of the security interest granted hereby or for the execution, delivery or
performance of this Assignment by the New Subsidiary in the U.S. or (2) for the
perfection in the United States or the exercise by Assignee of its rights and
remedies thereunder.

                  (n) All information heretofore, herein or hereafter supplied
to Assignee by or on behalf of the New Subsidiary with respect to the Collateral
is accurate and complete in all material respects.

                  (o) The New Subsidiary shall not enter into any agreement that
would materially impair or conflict with its obligations hereunder without
Assignee's prior written consent. The New Subsidiary shall not permit the
inclusion in any material contract to which it becomes a party of any provisions
that could or might in any way prevent the creation of a security interest in
its rights and interest in any property included within the definition of the
Collateral acquired under such contracts.

                                       5

<PAGE>

                  (p) Upon any executive officer of the New Subsidiary obtaining
actual knowledge thereof, the New Subsidiary will promptly notify Assignee in
writing of any event that materially adversely affects the value of any material
Collateral, the ability of the New Subsidiary to dispose of any material
Collateral or the rights and remedies of Assignee in relation thereto, including
the levy of any legal process against any of the Collateral.

         4. Assignee's Rights. Assignee shall have the right, but not the
            -----------------
obligation, to take, at the New Subsidiary's sole expense, any actions that the
New Subsidiary is required under this Assignment to take but which the New
Subsidiary fails to take, after fifteen (15) days' notice to the New Subsidiary.
The New Subsidiary shall reimburse and indemnify Assignee for all reasonable
costs and reasonable expenses incurred in the reasonable exercise of its rights
under this Section 4.

         5. Inspection Rights. The New Subsidiary hereby grants to Assignee and
            -----------------
its employees, representatives and agents the right to visit, during reasonable
hours upon prior reasonable written notice to the New Subsidiary, any of the New
Subsidiary's plants and facilities that manufacture, install or store products
(or that have done so during the prior six-month period) that are sold utilizing
any of the Collateral, and to inspect the products and quality control records
relating thereto upon reasonable written notice to the New Subsidiary and as
often as may be reasonably requested, but not more than one (1) in every six (6)
months.

         6. Further Assurances; Attorney in Fact.  The New Subsidiary
            ------------------------------------
represents, warrants, covenants and agrees as follows:

                  (a) The New Subsidiary will make, execute, acknowledge and
deliver, and file and record in the proper filing and recording places in the
United States, all such instruments, including, appropriate financing and
continuation statements and collateral agreements and filings with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office and the Register of Copyrights, and take all
such action as may reasonably be deemed necessary or advisable, or as requested
by Assignee, to perfect Assignee's security interest in all Copyrights, Patents
and Trademarks and otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of this
Assignment, or for assuring and confirming to Assignee the grant or perfection
of a security interest in all Collateral.

                  (b) Upon an Event of Default, the New Subsidiary hereby
irrevocably appoints Assignee as its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in
the place and stead of the New Subsidiary and in the name of the New Subsidiary,
Assignee or otherwise, from time to time in Assignee's discretion, upon the New
Subsidiary's failure or inability to do so, to take any action and to execute
any instrument which Assignee may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes of this Assignment, including:

                      (i) To modify, in its sole discretion, this Assignment
without first obtaining the New Subsidiary's approval of or signature to such
modification by amending Exhibit A-1, Exhibit A-2, Exhibit A-3, Exhibit B and
Exhibit C, thereof, as appropriate, to include reference to any right, title or
interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks acquired by the New Subsidiary
after the execution hereof or to delete any reference to any right, title or
interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks in which the New Subsidiary no
longer has or claims any right, title or interest; and

                                       6

<PAGE>

                      (ii) To file, in its sole discretion, one or more
financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of
the Collateral without the signature of the New Subsidiary where permitted by
law.

         7. Events of Default.  The occurrence of any of the following shall
            ------------------
constitute an Event of Default under the Assignment:

                  (a) An Event of Default occurs under the Loan Agreement; or

                  (b) The New Subsidiary breaches or fails to perform or observe
in any material respect any representation, warranty or agreement made by the
New Subsidiary in this Assignment.

         8. Remedies.  Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
            ---------
Default, Assignee shall have the right to exercise all the remedies of a
secured party under the UCC, including without limitation, the right to:

                  (a) require the New Subsidiary to assemble any tangible
property in which the Collateral is embodied and in which Assignee has a
security interest and to make it available to Assignee at a place designated by
Assignee,

                  (b) exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner
of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any and all consensual rights
and powers with respect to the Collateral, and

                  (c) sell or assign or grant a license to use, or cause to be
sold or assigned or grant a license to use any or all of the Collateral or any
part thereof, in each case, free of all rights and claims of the New Subsidiary
therein and thereto, except to the extent such actions would violate
restrictions against assignments contained in any Collateral in which the New
Subsidiary's rights arise by contract or license. In that connection, Assignee
shall have the right to cause any or all of the Collateral to be transferred of
record into the name of Assignee or its nominee and the right to impose (i) such
limitations and restrictions on the sale or assignment of the Collateral as
Assignee may deem to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any law, rule or
regulation having applicability to such sale or assignment and (ii) requirements
for any necessary governmental approvals. To the extent not inconsistent with
any license or contract under which the New Subsidiary's rights arise, Assignee
shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free license to use the Copyrights, Patents
and Trademarks to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Assignee to exercise
its rights and remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. The New
Subsidiary will pay any expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred
by Assignee in connection with the exercise of any of Assignee's rights
hereunder, including without limitation any expense incurred in disposing of the
Collateral. All of Assignee's rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral
shall be cumulative.

         9. Indemnity. The New Subsidiary agrees to defend, indemnify and hold
            ---------
harmless Assignee and its officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all
obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other
party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Assignment, and
(b) all losses or expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Assignee as
a result of or in any way arising out of, following or consequential to
transactions between Assignee and the New Subsidiary, whether under this
Assignment or

                                       7

<PAGE>

otherwise (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and
reasonable expenses), except for losses arising from or out of Assignee's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

         10. Release. At such time as Assignors shall completely satisfy all of
             -------
the Obligations, Assignee shall execute and deliver to Assignors all assignments
and other instruments as may be reasonably necessary or proper to terminate
Assignee's security interest and any conditional assignment in the Collateral,
subject to any disposition of the Collateral which may have been made by
Assignee pursuant to this Assignment. For the purpose of this Assignment, the
Obligations shall be deemed to continue if any Assignor enters into any
bankruptcy or similar proceeding at a time when any amount paid to Assignee
could be ordered to be repaid as a preference or pursuant to a similar theory,
and shall continue until it is finally determined that no such repayment can be
ordered.

         11. No Waiver. No course of dealing between any Assignor and Assignee,
             ---------
nor any failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising, on the part of
Assignee, any right, power, or privilege under this Assignment or under the Loan
Agreement or any other agreement, shall operate as a waiver. No single or
partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege under this Assignment or
under the Loan Agreement or any other agreement by Assignee shall preclude any
other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of
any other right, power, or privilege by Assignee.

         12. Rights Are Cumulative.  All of Assignee's rights and remedies with
             ---------------------
respect to the Collateral whether established by this Assignment, the Loan
Agreement, or any other documents or agreements, or by law shall be cumulative
and may be exercised concurrently or in any order.

         13. Course of Dealing.  No course of dealing, nor any failure to
             ------------------
exercise, nor any delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof.

         14. Attorneys' Fees.  If any action relating to this Assignment is
             ----------------
brought by either party hereto against the other party, the prevailing party
shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees, costs and disbursements.

         15. Amendments. This Assignment may be amended only by a written
             ----------
instrument signed by both parties hereto. To the extent that any provision of
this Assignment conflicts with any provision of the Loan Agreement, the
provision giving Assignee greater rights or remedies shall govern, it being
understood that the purpose of this Assignment is to add to, and not detract
from, the rights granted to Assignee under the Loan Agreement. This Assignment,
the Loan Agreement, and the documents relating thereto comprise the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the matters addressed in this
Assignment.

         16. Severability. The provisions of this Assignment are severable. If
             ------------
any provision of this Assignment is held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in
part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect
only such provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any
manner affect such provision or part thereof in any other jurisdiction, or any
other provision of this Assignment in any jurisdiction.

         17. Counterparts.  This Assignment may be executed in two or more
             -------------
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which
together shall constitute the same instrument.

                                       8

<PAGE>

         18. Governing Law and Jurisdiction.  This Assignment shall be governed
             -------------------------------
by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard for choice of law
provisions.  The New Subsidiary and Assignee consent to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in Fairfax County, Virginia.

         19. Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information, each of
             ---------------
Assignee and its agents shall exercise the same degree of care that its exercise
with respect to its own proprietary information of the same types to maintain
the confidentiality of any non-public information thereby received or received
pursuant to this Assignment except that the disclosure of this information may
be made (a) to the affiliates of Assignee, (b) to prospective transferee or
purchasers of an interest in the obligations secured hereby, provided that they
have entered into a comparable confidentiality agreement in favor of the New
Subsidiary and have delivered a copy to the New Subsidiary, (c) as required by
law, regulation, rule or order, subpoena judicial order or similar order and (d)
as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar
investigation of Assignee.

         20. WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL. ASSIGNEE AND THE NEW SUBSIDIARY EACH
             -----------------------------
HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON,
ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO: (a) THIS ASSIGNMENT; OR (b) ANY OTHER
PRESENT OR FUTURE INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN ASSIGNEE AND THE NEW
SUBSIDIARY; OR (c) ANY CONDUCT, ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF ASSIGNEE OR THE NEW
SUBSIDIARY OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR
ANY OTHER PERSONS AFFILIATED WITH ASSIGNEE OR THE NEW SUBSIDIARY; IN EACH OF THE
FOREGOING CASES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE.
