consent is required  under  Section  7.2(b)) in respect of a bona fide  proposal
from a non-affiliated  third party financial  institution to provide  additional
Indebtedness  that is otherwise  permitted  hereunder (and the proceeds of which

duplication, in the following order:

unpaid Obligations owing to such Lender.

     Any provision hereof or of the Collateral Account Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, any amounts held by Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral
Account  Agreement and not otherwise  required to be applied to the  Obligations
shall,  at the written  direction of Borrower,  be applied to repay  Obligations
hereunder  (to be applied as set forth in this Section 2.6) or, if the Borrowing
Base plus such amount on deposit in the  Collateral  Account  exceeds the sum of
(i) the  Outstanding  Principal  Amount plus (ii) the Required  Cash  Collateral
Amount at such time and no Default has occurred and is continuing,  such amounts
held in the  Collateral  Account  shall,  upon  written  request by  Borrower to

Collateral  Account  shall only be made on a Payment  Date and only after giving
effect to the  payment of all  amounts  due  hereunder  and under the other Loan
Documents on such Payment Date, and (b) no release shall result in the amount on
deposit in the Collateral  Account being less than the Required Cash  Collateral
Amount at such time.

Lender  such  Lender's  ratable  share of the  principal  amount to be  prepaid,

prepayment and any applicable premium payable pursuant to Section 2.5. Notice of

ratably to each  Lender,  and like funds  relating  to the  payment of any other
amount  payable  to any  Lender to such  Lender,  in each case to be  applied in

effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Collateral Agent
shall  make all  payments  hereunder,  under any Note and  under any other  Loan
Document  in respect of the  interest  assigned  thereby to the Lender  assignee

date directly between themselves.

     (b) Whenever any payment  hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be
due on a day,  other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next

included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

2.11 Taxes.

     (a) Withholding  Taxes. Any and all payments by the Borrower  hereunder and
under any Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and
all  present  or  future  taxes,  levies,   imposts,   deductions,   charges  or
withholdings,  and all liabilities with respect thereto,  excluding, in the case
of each Lender and the  Collateral  Agent,  net income taxes that are imposed by

organized or any political  subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender,
franchise  taxes and net  income  taxes that are  imposed on such  Lender by the
state or foreign  jurisdiction of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office or any
political  subdivision  thereof (all such non-excluded taxes,  levies,  imposts,
deductions,  charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to

or in respect of any sum payable  hereunder (or under any Note) to any Lender or
the Collateral Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary
so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional  sums payable  under this Section  2.11(a))  such Lender Party or the
Collateral  Agent (as the case may be)  receives  an amount  equal to the sum it
would have received had no such  deductions  been made,  (ii) the Borrower shall
make such  deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount  deducted
to the  relevant  taxation  authority  or other  authority  in  accordance  with
applicable law.

     (b) Other Taxes. In addition,  the Borrower shall pay any present or future
stamp,  documentary,  excise,  property or similar taxes, charges or levies that
arise from any payment made  hereunder or under any Note or from the  execution,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

     (c)  Indemnification.  The  Borrower  shall  indemnify  each Lender and the
Collateral  Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes, and for the full
amount of taxes  imposed  by any  jurisdiction  on  amounts  payable  under this
Section  2.11 paid by such Lender or the  Collateral  Agent (as the case may be)
and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto.  This  indemnification  shall be made
within 30 days from the date such  Lender or the  Collateral  Agent (as the case
may be) makes written demand therefor.

     (d)  Evidence of  Payment.  Within 30 days after the date of any payment of
Taxes,  the Borrower  shall  furnish to the each Lender the original  receipt of
payment thereof or a certified copy of such receipt.  In the case of any payment
hereunder or under any Note by the Borrower through an account or branch outside
the United  States or on behalf of the  Borrower by a payor that is not a United
States person,  if the Borrower  determines that no Taxes are payable in respect
thereof,  the Borrower shall furnish,  or shall cause such payor to furnish,  to
each Lender an opinion of counsel  acceptable  to such Lender  stating that such
payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (d) and subsection
(e),  the terms  "United  States"  and  "United  States  person"  shall have the
meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code.

     (e) Foreign Lenders and Issuing Banks. Each Lender organized under the laws
of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of it
becomes a party to this  Agreement,  and from time to time  thereafter  upon the
reasonable  request in writing by the Borrower or the Collateral Agent (but only
so long thereafter as such Lender remains  lawfully able to do so),  provide the
Collateral  Agent and the Borrower  with Internal  Revenue  Service Form 1001 or
4224  (or  other  appropriate  form),  as  appropriate,  or any  successor  form
prescribed  by the  Internal  Revenue  Service,  certifying  that such Lender is
exempt from or is entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on
payments under this Agreement. If the form provided by a Lender at the time such
Lender  first  becomes  a party to this  Agreement  indicates  a  United  States
interest  withholding  tax rate in excess of zero,  withholding tax at such rate
shall be considered  excluded  from Taxes unless and until such Lender  provides
the  appropriate   form  certifying  that  a  lesser  rate  applies,   whereupon
withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes
for periods governed by such form;  provided,  however,  that, if at the date of
the  assignment  pursuant  to which a Lender  assignee  becomes  a party to this
Agreement,  the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in
respect of United States  withholding  tax with respect to interest paid at such
date,  then,  to such  extent,  the term Taxes  shall  include  (in  addition to
withholding  taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts  otherwise
includable in Taxes)  United States  withholding  tax, if any,  applicable  with
respect to the Lender assignee on such date.

     (f) Failure to Provide Forms. For any period with respect to which a Lender
has failed to provide  the  Borrower  with the  appropriate  form  described  in
Section  2.11(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring
after the date on which a form originally was required to be provided or if such
form otherwise is not required under Section  2.11(e)),  such Lender Party shall
not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.11(a) or Section 2.11(c) with
respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided,  however, that should a
Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required
hereunder,  the Borrower  shall take such steps as such Lender shall  reasonably
request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes.

2.12  Sharing of  Payments,  Etc..  If any Lender  shall  obtain at any time any
payment (whether  voluntary,  involuntary,  through the exercise of any right of
set-off,  or otherwise)  (a) on account of  Obligations  due and payable to such
Lender  hereunder or under any Note at such time in excess of its ratable  share
(according  to the  proportion  of (i) the  amount of such  Obligations  due and
payable  to such  Lender  at  such  time to (ii)  the  aggregate  amount  of the
Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the Notes at such
time) of payments on account of the  Obligations  due and payable to all Lenders
hereunder  and under the Notes at such time  obtained by all the Lenders at such
time or (b) on account of  Obligations  owing (but not due and  payable) to such
Lender  hereunder or under any Note at such time in excess of its ratable  share
(according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such
Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate  amount of the Obligations  owing (but
not due and payable) to all Lenders  hereunder and under the Notes at such time)
of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all
Lenders  hereunder  and under the Notes at such time obtained by all the Lenders
at such time, such Lender shall  forthwith  purchase from the other Lenders such
participations  in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case
may be,  as shall be  necessary  to cause  such  purchasing  Lender to share the
excess payment ratably with each of them; provided,  however, that if all or any
portion of such excess  payment is  thereafter  recovered  from such  purchasing
Lender,  such  purchase from each other Lender shall be rescinded and such other
Lender shall repay to the purchasing  Lender the purchase price to the extent of
such other  Lender's  ratable  share  (according  to the  proportion  of (i) the
purchase price paid to such Lender to (ii) the aggregate  purchase price paid to
all Lenders) of such  recovery  together  with an amount equal to such  Lender's
ratable  share  (according  to the  proportion  of (i) the  amount of such other
Lender's  required  repayment  to (ii) the total  amount so  recovered  from the
purchasing  Lender)  of any  interest  or other  amount  paid or  payable by the
purchasing  Lender in respect of the total  amount so  recovered.  The  Borrower
agrees  that any  Lender so  purchasing  a  participation  from  another  Lender
pursuant  to this  Section  2.12 may, to the fullest  extent  permitted  by law,
exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect
to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the
Borrower in the amount of such participation.

2.13 Suspension of LIBOR.

     (a) Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,  if
the  introduction  of or any  change in or in the  interpretation  of any law or
regulation  shall make it unlawful,  or any central  bank or other  governmental
authority  shall  assert  that it is  unlawful,  for any Lender to  perform  its
obligations  hereunder  to make,  fund or maintain  its portion of the Loan as a
LIBOR based  obligation,  then,  on notice  thereof and demand  therefor by such
Lender to the  Borrower,  the interest  rate  applicable to the Loan pursuant to
Section 2.4 shall thereafter be the Base Rate plus (i) at all times prior to the
Ratings Completion Date, eight hundred (800) basis points, and (ii) at all times
on and after the Ratings  Completion Date, five hundred (500) basis points until
such Lender shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has  determined  that the
circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

     (b) Other Circumstances. If any Lender shall determine in good faith (which
determination  shall be  conclusive)  that (A)  LIBOR  cannot be  determined  in
accordance with the definition  thereof,  or (B) LIBOR for any Interest  Accrual
Period will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lender of making, funding or
maintaining  such Lender's ratable portion of the Loan for such Interest Period,
such  Lender  shall  forthwith  so notify the  Borrower  and the other  Lenders,
whereupon the interest  rate  applicable to the Loan pursuant to Section 2.4 for
such Lender shall thereafter be the Base Rate plus 5.0%.

2.14 Increased Costs, Etc..

     (a)  Increased  Costs.  If,  due to either (i) the  introduction  of or any
change  in or in  the  interpretation  of any  law or  regulation  or  (ii)  the
compliance  with  any  guideline  or  request  from  any  central  bank or other
governmental  authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be
any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or of making, funding
or maintaining  its portion of the Loan based on LIBOR,  then the Borrower shall
from time to time,  upon  demand by such  Lender pay to such  Lender  additional
amounts  sufficient  to  compensate  such  Lender  for  such  increased  cost  A
certificate as to the amount of such increased  cost,  submitted to the Borrower
by such  Lender,  shall be  conclusive  and  binding  for all  purposes,  absent
manifest error.

     (b) Capital Requirements.  If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any
change  in or in  the  interpretation  of any  law or  regulation  or  (ii)  the
compliance  with  any  guideline  or  request  from  any  central  bank or other
governmental  authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be
any increase in the amount of capital  required or expected to be  maintained by
such Lender or any corporation  controlling  such Lender as a result of or based
upon the existence of such Lender's  commitment to lend  hereunder,  then,  upon
demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender,  from time to time
as specified by such Lender,  additional  amounts  sufficient to compensate such
Lender in the  light of such  circumstances,  to the  extent  that  such  Lender
reasonably  determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence
of such Lender's commitment to lend hereunder.  A certificate as to such amounts
submitted to the Borrower by such Lender,  shall be  conclusive  and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.15 Promissory Notes. The Borrower hereby agrees that if, in the opinion of any
Lender, a promissory note or other evidence of debt is required,  appropriate or
desirable to reflect or enforce the indebtedness of the Borrower  resulting from
the Loan made by or otherwise  owing to such  Lender,  then upon request of such
Lender,  the Borrower shall (in the case of any such request by a Lender that is
not an initial party hereto,  in accordance with Section 10.16) promptly execute
and deliver to such  Lender,  a  promissory  note  substantially  in the form of
Exhibit  D,  payable  to the  order of such  Lender  in an  amount  equal to the
principal amount of the Loan made by or otherwise owing to such Lender.

UDCSFC and UDC, will be the legally valid and binding  obligations of UDCSFC and
UDC,  enforceable  against  each of  UDCSFC  and UDC in  accordance  with  their
respective terms,  except as enforcement may be limited by equitable  principles
or by  bankruptcy,  insolvency,  reorganization,  moratorium,  or  similar  laws
relating to or limiting creditors' rights generally.

     (f) The Lien  granted  by  UDCSFC  and UDC on the  Collateral  is a validly
created and perfected  first  priority Lien, and the Collateral is subject to no
other Liens other than Liens in favor of Collateral Agent and the Liens referred
to in item 1 on Schedule E.

5.5  Litigation.  Except as set forth in  Schedule  C,  there are no  actions or
proceedings  pending by or against  Borrower before any court or  administrative
agency  and  Borrower  does  not  have  knowledge  or  belief  of  any  pending,
threatened,  or imminent  litigation,  governmental  investigations,  or claims,
complaints, actions, or prosecutions involving Borrower, except for: (a) ongoing
collection  matters in which  Borrower is the  plaintiff,  (b) matters  that, if
decided adversely to Borrower,  would not have a Material Adverse Effect and (c)
matters as to which Borrower has provided  notice to the Lenders and which could
not reasonably be expected to be decided adversely to Borrower.

5.6 Financial  Statements;  No Material Adverse Change. All financial statements
relating to Borrower,  UDRC II and UDRC III that have been delivered by Borrower
to Lenders have been  prepared in accordance  with GAAP (except,  in the case of
unaudited financial  statements,  for the lack of footnotes and being subject to
year-end audit adjustments) and fairly present the financial condition as of the
date  thereof  and the  results  of  operations  for the  period  then ended for
Borrower and its consolidated  Subsidiaries,  except as disclosed on Schedule D.
No information,  exhibit or report furnished by Borrower or any other Loan Party
to the Collateral  Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of the
Loan  Documents  or pursuant to the terms of the Loan  Documents  contained  any
untrue  statement  of a  material  fact or  omitted  to  state a  material  fact
necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading. There has not been
a Material  Adverse Change with respect to Borrower since December 31, 1999. For
purposes of this  Section 5.6, so long as Borrower has not failed to comply with
Section 6.24 hereof,  the  requirement to refinance the GECC Agreement shall not
constitute a Material Adverse Change.

5.7 Securitization  Documents.  Borrower, UDRC II and UDRC III and each of their
Affiliates are in full compliance with their  respective  obligations  under the
Securitization Documents, and no Securitization Default exists.

5.8 ERISA. No accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA
and Section 412 of the Code), whether or not waived,  exists with respect to any
plan (other than a  multiemployer  plan).  No liability  to the Pension  Benefit
Guaranty  Corporation  has been or is expected  by Borrower to be incurred  with
respect to any plan (other than a  multiemployer  plan) by Borrower  which is or
would have a Material  Adverse  Effect.  Borrower  has not incurred and does not
presently expect to incur any withdrawal  liability under Title IV of ERISA with
respect to any  multiemployer  plan which is or would be  materially  adverse to
Borrower.  The  execution  and  delivery  of this  Agreement  and the other Loan
Documents will not involve any transaction  which is subject to the prohibitions
of  Section  406 of ERISA or in  connection  with  which a tax could be  imposed
pursuant to section  4975 of the Code.  For the purpose of this Section 5.8, the
term "plan" shall mean an "employee pension benefit plan" (as defined in section
3 of  ERISA)  which  is or has  been  established  or  maintained,  or to  which
contributions  are or have been made,  by Borrower or by any trade or  business,
whether or not  incorporated,  which,  together with  Borrower,  is under common
control,  as  described  in  Section  414(b)  or (c) of the  Code;  and the term
"multiemployer  plan"  shall mean any plan which is a  "multiemployer  plan" (as
such term is defined in Section  4001(a)(3) of ERISA). No plan providing welfare
benefits to retired  former  employees  of Borrower has been  established  or is
maintained for which the present value of future benefits payable,  in excess of
irrevocably  designated  funds for such  purpose,  is or would  have a  Material
Adverse Effect.

5.9 Environmental and Safety Matters.  Borrower (a) has complied in all material
respects  with all  applicable  material  Environmental  and  Safety  Laws,  and
Borrower has not received (i) notice of any material failure so to comply,  (ii)
any letter or request for information  under Section 104 of CERCLA or comparable
state laws or (iii) any information that would lead it to believe that it is the
subject  of any  Federal or state  investigation  concerning  Environmental  and
Safety Laws;  (b) does not manage,  generate,  discharge or store any  Hazardous
Materials in material  violation of any material  Environmental and Safety Laws;
(c) does not own,  operate or maintain any underground  storage tanks or surface
impoundments;  and (d) except as  disclosed  to Lenders in writing  prior to the
date hereof, is not aware of any conditions or circumstances associated with its
currently or previously  owned or leased  properties or operations  (or those of
its  tenants)  which may give rise to any  Environmental  Liabilities  and Costs
which could have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.10 Tax  Matters.  Each of  Borrower  and its  Subsidiaries  has  filed all tax
returns  that it was  required to file.  All such tax returns  were  correct and
complete in all material  respects.  All Borrower  Taxes owed by any of Borrower
and its Subsidiaries have been paid.

5.11 [Reserved].

5.12 Ownership of  Properties.  Each Loan Party and its  Subsidiaries  has good,
marketable and insurable title in fee simple to, or a valid  leasehold  interest
in, all its real property,  and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in,
all its other Property.

5.13  Investment  Company  Status.  Neither  any  Loan  Party  nor  any  of  its
Subsidiaries  is an  "investment  company,"  or an  "affiliated  person"  of, or
"promoter"  or "principal  underwriter"  for, an  "investment  company," as such
terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Neither the
making of the Loan nor the  application of the proceeds or repayment  thereof by
Borrower,  nor the consummation of the other transactions  contemplated  hereby,
will violate any  provision of such Act or any rule,  regulation or order of the
Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

5.14  Solvency.   Each  Loan  Party  is,  individually  and  together  with  its
Subsidiaries,  Solvent.  For purposes  hereof,  the term "Solvent"  means,  with
respect to any Person on a particular date, that on such date (a) the fair value
of the property of such Person is greater than the total amount of  liabilities,
including,  without limitation,  contingent liabilities, of such Person, (b) the
present  fair  salable  value of the assets of such  Person is not less than the
amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of such Person on its
debts as they become  absolute and matured,  (c) such Person does not intend to,
and does not  believe  that it will,  incur  debts or  liabilities  beyond  such
Person's ability to pay as such debts and liabilities mature and (d) such Person
is not  engaged  in  business  or a  transaction,  and is not about to engage in
business or a transaction,  for which such Person's property would constitute an
unreasonably  small  capital.  The amount of contingent  liabilities at any time
shall  be  computed  as the  amount  that,  in the  light of all the  facts  and
circumstances  existing at such time,  represents the amount that can reasonably
be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

such Loan Party shall so state in writing; or

     (n) any Security  Document shall for any reason (other than pursuant to the
terms thereof) cease to create a valid and perfected  first priority Lien on the
Collateral purported to be covered thereby.

8.2 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence, and during the continuation, of an
Event of Default,  Required Lenders may (and may direct the Collateral Agent to,
and upon such direction the Collateral Agent shall),  at their sole and absolute
discretion,  without further notice, do any one or more of the following, all of
which are authorized by Borrower:

     (a) declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of
the other Loan  Documents,  or otherwise,  immediately due and payable (and upon
the  occurrence  of any  Event  of  Default  described  in  Section  8.1(k)  all
Obligations  shall  automatically  and without action by Collateral Agent or any
Lender be and become immediately due and payable);

     (b) terminate  this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents as to any
future  liability  or  obligation  of each  Lender,  but without  affecting  any
Lender's  or  the  Collateral  Agent's  rights  and  security  interests  in the
Collateral and without affecting the Obligations;

     (c) without  notice to or demand upon  Borrower,  make such payments and do
such acts as Required  Lenders  consider  necessary or reasonable to protect the
security interests of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral; (d) without notice
to Borrower (such notice being  expressly  waived),  and without  constituting a
retention of any collateral in satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning
of Section 9-505 of the UCC) (or any successor provision),  set off and apply to
the  Obligations  any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower  held by any
Lender,  or (ii)  indebtedness  at any time  owing to or for the  credit  or the
account of Borrower held by any Lender; or

     (e)  direct the  Collateral  Agent to  collect,  receive,  appropriate  and
realize upon the Collateral,  on such terms as Required  Lenders,  in their sole
and absolute discretion, deem appropriate without any liability for any loss due
to a decrease  in the market  value of the  Collateral  during the period  held,
without demand of performance  or other demand,  advertisement  or notice of any
kind,  except as specified  below,  to or upon Borrower or any other person (all
and each of which demands,  advertisements  and/or notices are hereby  expressly
waived to the extent  permitted  by law).  If any  notification  to  Borrower of
intended  disposition  of the  Collateral is required by law, such  notification
shall be deemed  reasonable  and properly  given if mailed to Borrower,  postage
prepaid,  at least ten (10) days  before  any such  disposition  at the  address
indicated by Borrower's signature. Any disposition of the Collateral or any part
thereof shall be free of any equity or right of  redemption  in Borrower,  which
right of equity is, to the extent  permitted by applicable law, hereby expressly
waived or released by Borrower.  Borrower further agrees that such sale or sales
made under the  foregoing  circumstances  shall be deemed to have been made in a
commercially reasonable manner. Neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall be
obligated  to make any sale or other  disposition  of the  Collateral  permitted
under this Loan  Agreement,  unless the terms thereof shall be  satisfactory  to
Required Lenders.

     The rights and  remedies of  Collateral  Agent and each  Lender  under this
Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative.  No
exercise  by  Collateral  Agent or any  Lender of one  right or remedy  shall be
deemed an election, and no waiver by Collateral Agent or any Lender of any Event
of Default shall be deemed a continuing  waiver. No delay by Collateral Agent or
any Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

ARTICLE IX.
THE COLLATERAL AGENT

9.1  Authorization  and Action.  Each Lender hereby  appoints and authorizes the
Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such
powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the
Collateral  Agent by the terms hereof and thereof,  together with such powers as
are reasonably  incidental thereto.  Except as specifically  provided for by the
Loan  Documents,  the  Collateral  Agent shall not be  required to exercise  any
discretion  or take any  action  under any of the Loan  Documents,  but shall be
required to act or to refrain  from acting (and shall be fully  protected  in so
acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders,
and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and the Collateral Agent
shall  not be liable to the  Borrower  or any  Lender  for any  action  taken or
omitted at the direction of the Required Lenders;  provided,  however,  that the
Collateral  Agent  shall not be  required  to take any action  that  exposes the
Collateral  Agent,  in its  sole  judgment,  to  personal  liability  or that is
contrary to this  Agreement or applicable  law. The  Collateral  Agent agrees to
give to each Lender  prompt  notice of each notice  given to it by the  Borrower
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

9.2 Collateral  Agent's Reliance,  Etc.. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of
its  directors,  officers,  agents or  employees  shall be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection  with the Loan
Documents,  except for its or their own gross negligence or willful  misconduct.
Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent: (i)
may treat the Lender that made any portion of the Loan as the holder of the debt
resulting  therefrom until the Collateral Agent receives notice of an assignment
by such Lender;  (ii) may consult with legal counsel  (including counsel for any
Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and
shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by
it in accordance with the advice of such counsel,  accountants or experts; (iii)
makes no warranty or  representation  to any Lender and shall not be responsible
to any Lender for any  statements,  warranties  or  representations  made by any
Person  other  than  the  Collateral  Agent  in or in  connection  with the Loan
Documents;  (iv)  shall not have any duty to  ascertain  or to inquire as to the
performance  or observance  of any of the terms,  covenants or conditions of any
Loan  Document  on the  part  of any  Loan  Party  or to  inspect  the  property
(including  the  books  and  records)  of  any  Loan  Party;  (v)  shall  not be
responsible   to  any  Lender  for  the  due  execution,   legality,   validity,
enforceability,  genuineness,  sufficiency  or value of any Loan Document or any
other  instrument or document  furnished  pursuant  hereto or thereto;  and (vi)
shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon
any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telegram,  telecopy,  cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or
sent by the proper party or parties.

9.3 BNY Midwest Trust Company and Affiliates.. BNY Midwest Trust Company and its
affiliates  may accept  deposits  from,  lend  money to,  act as  trustee  under
indentures of, accept investment  banking  engagements from and generally engage
in any kind of business with, any Loan Party,  any of its  Subsidiaries  and any
Person who may do business with or own  securities of any Loan Party or any such
Subsidiary,  all as if BNY Midwest Trust Company were not the  Collateral  Agent
and without any duty to account therefor to the Lender Parties.

9.4 Lender Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently
and without  reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Lender and based on
the  financial  statements  referred  to herein  and such  other  documents  and
information  as it has  deemed  appropriate,  made its own credit  analysis  and
decision to enter into this  Agreement.  Each Lender also  acknowledges  that it
will,  independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other
Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem  appropriate
at the time,  continue to make its own credit  decisions in taking or not taking
action under this Agreement.

9.5  Indemnification.  Each Lender  severally agrees to indemnify the Collateral
Agent (to the extent not promptly  reimbursed by the Borrower)  from and against
such Lender's  ratable share of any and all  liabilities,  obligations,  losses,
damages, penalties,  actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
of any kind or  nature  whatsoever  that may be  imposed  on,  incurred  by,  or
asserted  against the Collateral  Agent in any way relating to or arising out of
the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Collateral  Agent under
the Loan Documents;  provided,  however,  that no Lender shall be liable for any
portion of such liabilities,  obligations,  losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Collateral
Agent's  gross  negligence  or willful  misconduct.  Without  limitation  of the
foregoing,  each Lender agrees to reimburse the  Collateral  Agent promptly upon
demand for its ratable  share of any costs and expenses  payable by the Borrower
under  Section  10.4,  to the extent that the  Collateral  Agent is not promptly
reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower.

9.6 Successor  Collateral Agents. The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by
giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and may be removed
at any time with cause by the Required  Lenders.  Upon any such  resignation  or
removal,  the  Required  Lenders  shall  have the right to  appoint a  successor
Collateral Agent. If no successor  Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed
by the Required  Lenders,  and shall have accepted such  appointment,  within 30
days after the retiring  Collateral  Agent's  giving of notice of resignation or
the  Required  Lenders'  removal  of the  retiring  Collateral  Agent,  then the
retiring  Collateral  Agent  may,  on behalf of the  Lender  Parties,  appoint a
successor Collateral Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the
laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined  capital
and surplus of at least  $50,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as
Collateral  Agent  hereunder  by a  successor  Collateral  Agent  and  upon  the
execution and filing or recording of such  financing  statements,  or amendments
thereto,  and  such  other  instruments  or  notices,  as  may be  necessary  or
desirable,  or as the  Required  Lenders may  request,  in order to continue the
perfection  of the liens  granted or  purported  to be  granted by the  Security
Documents,  such successor  Collateral  Agent shall succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers,  discretion,  privileges and duties of the retiring
Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.  After any retiring  Collateral
Agent's  resignation or removal hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of
this Article IX shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by it while it was Collateral Agent under this Agreement.

9.7  Monthly  Verification  Duties of  Collateral  Agent.  Upon  receipt of each
Collateral  Servicing  Report and in no event later than the Calculation Date in
respect  thereof,  the Collateral Agent shall verify the following items in such
Collateral  Servicing Report against the monthly  servicing reports with respect
to each Securitization:

     (a)  the  outstanding  principal  balance  of  auto  loans  in the  pool of
collateral securing the related securitization;

gross negligence or willful  misconduct of such Indemnified Person or the breach
by such Indemnified Person of its obligations hereunder.  The agreements in this
Section 10.5 shall survive payment of all other  Obligations and the termination
of this Agreement.

10.6  Marshaling:  Payments Set Aside.  Neither  Collateral Agent nor any Lender
shall be under any  obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrower or any
other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the  Obligations.  To the
extent that  Borrower  makes a payment or payments  to  Collateral  Agent or any
Lender,  or to the extent  Collateral  Agent or any Lender enforces its Liens or
exercises its rights of set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of
such  enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are  subsequently  invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to
a trustee,  receiver or any other party in connection  with any  bankruptcy,  or
otherwise,  then to the extent of such  recovery the  obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force
and effect as if such payment had not been made or such  enforcement  or set-off
had not occurred.

10.7  Successors and Assigns.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and  inure to the  benefit  of the  parties  hereto  and  their  respective
successors  and assigns,  except that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of
its  rights or  delegate  obligations  under this  Agreement  or any of the Loan
Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender.

10.8 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Lenders provided by law,
if an Event of Default  exists,  each Lender is  authorized at any time and from
time to time, without prior notice to Borrower,  any such notice being waived by
Borrower to the fullest  extent  permitted  by law, to set off and apply any and
all monies or deposits at any time held by, and other  indebtedness  at any time
owing by, such  Lender to or for the credit or the  account of Borrower  against
any  and all  Obligations  owing  to such  Lender,  now or  hereafter  existing,
irrespective  of whether or not such Lender  shall have made  demand  under this
Agreement or any Loan Document and although such  Obligations  may be contingent
or unmatured.  Each Lender  agrees  promptly to notify  Borrower  after any such
set-off and  application  made by such  Lender;  provided,  however,  that,  the
failure to give such notice  shall not affect the  validity of such  set-off and
application.  The rights of each Lender  under this Section 10.8 are in addition
to the other rights and remedies  (including other rights of set-off) which such
Lender may have.

10.9 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties
to this Agreement in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so
executed,  shall be  deemed  an  original,  and all of said  counterparts  taken
together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument.

10.10 Severability.  The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this
Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way
affect or impair the legality or enforceability  of the remaining  provisions of
this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

10.11 No Third Parties  Benefited.  This  Agreement is made and entered into for
the sole  protection  and legal benefit of Borrower,  Collateral  Agent and each
Lender (and its portfolio advisor),  and their permitted successors and assigns,
and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal  beneficiary of, or have
any  direct  or  indirect  cause of  action or claim in  connection  with,  this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  Neither  Collateral Agent nor any
Lender shall have any  obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or
other Loan Documents.

10.12  Time.  Time is of the  essence  as to  each  term  or  provision  of this
Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents.

10.13 Governing Law and Jurisdiction.

     THE  VALIDITY  OF  THIS  AGREEMENT  AND  THE  OTHER  LOAN  DOCUMENTS,   THE
CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF AND THEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS
OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING  HEREUNDER
OR THEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO OR THERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED  UNDER,  GOVERNED
BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, IT BEING
THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES THAT THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN THE
RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITHOUT REGARD TO CHOICE OR CONFLICTS OF
LAW PRINCIPLES; EXCEPT THAT THE PROVISIONS HEREIN THAT PERTAIN TO THE PERFECTION
OR THE  EFFECT OF  PERFECTION  OF  SECURITY  INTERESTS  IN  COLLATERAL  SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SUCH STATE AS ARE SPECIFIED IN SECTION 9103 OF THE UCC.

     THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND
ITS PROPERTY,  TO THE  NONEXCLUSIVE  JURISDICTION OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT OR
FEDERAL COURT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA  SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY, AND ANY
APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF,  IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS  AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT IS OR
IS TO BE A PARTY,  OR FOR  RECOGNITION OR  ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT,  AND THE
BORROWER  HEREBY  IRREVOCABLY  AND  UNCONDITIONALLY  AGREES  THAT ALL  CLAIMS IN
RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH
NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE EXTENT  PERMITTED BY LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.
THE BORROWER AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL
BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT
OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER  PROVIDED BY LAW.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL AFFECT
ANY RIGHT THAT ANY PARTY MAY  OTHERWISE  HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR  PROCEEDING
RELATING TO THIS  AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT IS OR
IS TO BE A PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

     THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY  WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
IT MAY LEGALLY AND EFFECTIVELY DO SO, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER
HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING  ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS  AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT IS OR
IS TO BE A PARTY IN ANY NEW YORK STATE OR FEDERAL  COURT.  THE  BORROWER  HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY  WAIVES,  TO THE FULLEST EXTENT  PERMITTED BY LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN
INCONVENIENT  FORUM TO THE  MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH
COURT.

     BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF
ANY  CLAIM OR CAUSE  OF  ACTION  BASED  UPON OR  ARISING  OUT OF ANY OF THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS  CONTEMPLATED  THEREIN,  INCLUDING CONTRACT
CLAIMS,  TORT  CLAIMS,  BREACH  OF DUTY  CLAIMS,  AND ALL  OTHER  COMMON  LAW OR
STATUTORY  CLAIMS.  BORROWER AND LENDER  REPRESENT  THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED  THIS
WAIVER AND EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING
CONSULTATION  WITH LEGAL  COUNSEL.  IN THE EVENT OF  LITIGATION,  A COPY OF THIS
AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

10.14 Entire Agreement. This Agreement,  together with the other Loan Documents,
embodies the entire Agreement and understanding among Borrower, Collateral Agent
and  Lenders  and  supersedes  all  prior  or  contemporaneous   agreements  and
understandings  of such  Persons,  verbal or  written,  relating  to the subject
matter  hereof and thereof and any prior  arrangements  made with respect to the
payment by Borrower (or any  indemnification  for) any Lender Costs incurred (or
to be incurred) by or on behalf of Collateral Agent or any Lender.

10.15  Interpretation.  This Agreement is the result of negotiations between and
has been reviewed by counsel to Collateral  Agent,  Lenders,  Borrower and other
parties, and is the product of all parties hereto.  Accordingly,  this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents shall not be construed against  Collateral Agent or
any Lender merely  because of Lenders'  involvement  in the  preparation of such
documents and agreements.

10.16 Assignment;  Register.  Each Lender may assign,  sell participations in or
pledge its rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents  without the consent of
Borrower;  provided,  however,  that no such assignment shall be effective until
the parties  thereto shall have executed and delivered to the  Collateral  Agent
for  acceptance  and recording in the Register (as defined  below) an Assignment
and Acceptance.  Upon such execution,  delivery,  acceptance and recording, from
and after the effective date specified in such  Assignment and  Acceptance,  (x)
the assignee  thereunder  shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights
and  obligations  hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment
and Acceptance,  have the rights and  obligations of a Lender  hereunder and (y)
the Lender assignor  thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations
hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such  Assignment and  Acceptance,
relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations  under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance  covering all or the remaining
portion of an assigning  Lender's rights and  obligations  under this Agreement,
such  Lender  shall  cease to be a party  hereto).  Borrower  may not  assign or
delegate any of its rights,  interest or  obligations  hereunder or under any of
the Loan Documents.

     The  Collateral  Agent,  on behalf of the Borrower,  shall  maintain at the
Collateral Agent's address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment
and  Acceptance  delivered  to  and  accepted  by it  and  a  register  for  the
recordation  of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal  amount
of the Loan owing to each Lender from time to time (the "Register"). The entries
in the  Register  shall be  conclusive  and  binding  for all  purposes,  absent
manifest error, and the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all
purposes of this  Agreement.  The Register  shall be available for inspection by
the  Borrower  or any Lender at any  reasonable  time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.

     Upon its receipt of an Assignment and  Acceptance  executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee,  the  Collateral  Agent shall,  if such  Assignment  and
Acceptance  has been  completed  and is in  substantially  the form of Exhibit C
hereto,  (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance,  (ii) record the information
contained  therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt  notice  thereof to the
Borrower.  Within  five  Business  Days after its  receipt  of  written  request
therefor,  the  Borrower,  at its own expense,  shall execute and deliver to the
Collateral  Agent in exchange for any Note  surrendered  in  connection  with an
assignment hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assignee in an amount equal
to the principal  amount of the Loan assumed by it and, if the assigning  Lender
has  retained  a portion of the Loan  hereunder,  a new Note to the order of the
assigning  Lender in an amount equal to such portion  retained by it  hereunder.
Such new Note or Notes shall be in an  aggregate  principal  amount equal to the
aggregate  principal  amount  of such  surrendered  Note,  shall  be  dated  the
effective date of the applicable  Assignment and Acceptance and shall  otherwise
be in substantially the form of Exhibit D.

10.17 Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations.  If the incurrence or payment of
the  Obligations by Borrower or the transfer by Borrower to Collateral  Agent or
any  Lender of any  property  of either or both of such  parties  should for any
reason  subsequently  be  declared  to be void or  voidable  under  any state or
federal  law  relating  to  creditors'  rights,   including  provisions  of  the
Bankruptcy  Code  relating to  fraudulent  conveyances,  preferences,  and other
voidable   or   recoverable   payments  of  money  or   transfers   of  property
(collectively,  a "Voidable Transfer"), and if Collateral Agent or any Lender is
required to repay or restore,  in whole or in part, any such Voidable  Transfer,
or elects to do so upon the  reasonable  advice of its counsel,  then, as to any
such Voidable Transfer,  or the amount thereof that Lender is required or elects
to repay or restore,  and as to all  reasonable  costs,  expenses,  and Attorney
Costs of Lender related thereto,  the liability of Borrower  automatically shall
be revived,  reinstated,  and restored  and shall exist as though such  Voidable
Transfer had never been made.

10.18  Survival.  Notwithstanding  any provision of this  agreement or any other
Loan Document to the contrary,  the  provisions of Sections  2.11,  2.12,  2.13,
2.14, 9.4, 9.5, 10.4 and 10.5 shall survive payment of all other Obligations and
the termination of this Agreement.

10.19  Confidentiality.  Each  Lender and  Collateral  Agent  agrees to hold any
confidential  information  that it may receive  from  Borrower  pursuant to this
Agreement in confidence,  except for  disclosure:  (a) to other Lenders,  rating
agencies,  trustees,  reference  lenders,  portfolio  advisors,  any  direct  or
indirect  contractual  counterparty  in  swap  agreements  or  such  contractual
counterparty's  professional  advisor,  and any other  parties  relevant  to any
investment vehicle managed by SAI Investment Adviser, Inc.; (b) to legal counsel
and  accountants  for Borrower,  Collateral  Agent or any Lender or  prospective
Lender; (c) to other professional advisors to Borrower,  Collateral Agent or any
Lender or prospective  Lender; (d) to regulatory  officials;  (e) as required by
law or legal process;  and (f) to another  proposed  Lender in connection with a
proposed assignment permitted hereunder provided that the recipient has accepted
such information subject to a confidentiality agreement substantially similar to
this Section  10.19.  For purposes of the foregoing  "confidential  information"
shall mean any information  respecting Borrower,  its Subsidiaries or Affiliates
delivered  to  Lenders  and  marked  confidential,  other  than (i)  information
previously filed with any governmental  agency and available to the public, (ii)
information  previously  published in any public medium from a source other than
directly or indirectly,  that Lender, (iii) information  previously disclosed by
Borrower to any Person not associated  with Borrower  without a  confidentiality
agreement or obligation  substantially  similar to this Section 10.19,  and (iv)
any such information that is or becomes generally  available to the public other
than  as a  result  of a  breach  by  Collateral  Agent  or  any  Lender  of its
obligations  hereunder or that is or becomes  available to  Collateral  Agent or
such Lender from a source other than Borrower.

10.20 Actions by Portfolio  Advisor.  Any rights of a Lender  hereunder or under
any other Loan Document may be exercised by such Lender's  portfolio  advisor or
collateral manager upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of evidence in writing,
reasonably  satisfactory to the Collateral  Agent,  setting forth such authority
(which may be in the form of a written  confirmation  of such authority from the
applicable Lender).

to Borrower up to the amount of such  excess;  provided,  however,  that (a) any
release to Borrower of amounts on deposit in the  Collateral  Account shall only

payment  and  performance  in full when due,  whether  at  stated  maturity,  by
declaration,  acceleration  or otherwise  (including the payment of amounts that
would  become due but for the  operation  of the  automatic  stay under  Section

indemnities,  fees,  expenses or  otherwise,  whether now  existing or hereafter
arising,  voluntary  or  involuntary,  whether or not jointly  owed with others,
direct or indirect,  absolute or  contingent,  liquidated or  unliquidated,  and
whether or not from time to time deceased or extinguished  and later  increased,
created or incurred,  and all obligations or liabilities of every nature of such
Grantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement,  the Loan Agreement, the
Notes or any other  Loan  Document  (all  such  obligations  being the  "Secured
Obligations").

     SECTION  5.  Investment  of  Amounts in  Collateral  Account.  Cash held by
Secured  Party in the  Collateral  Account  shall not be invested or  reinvested
except as provided in this Section 5. Secured  Party may invest funds on deposit

specified from time to time in a written request from UDC.

     SECTION 6. Application of Collateral.  Notwithstanding  any other provision

Grantors,  set off and apply any and all of the Collateral then or thereafter on
deposit  in the  Collateral  Account  against,  and/or  continue  to  hold  such
balances,  monies and  proceeds  as  security  for,  the  payment of any and all
Secured Obligations as the same may become due, all as the Lenders may elect and
whether or not any default shall have occurred  hereunder.  Each Grantor  hereby
