      made with respect to each Leased Property not later than 120 days after
      the related Construction Term Expiration Date for Construction costs
      incurred for such Leased Property during such period), (i) each B Lender
      shall make available to the Lessor a B Loan in an amount equal to the
      product of such B Lenders Commitment Percentage times the amount of

      Funding requested by the Construction Agent for such Funding Date.

            (c)    AGGREGATE LIMITS ON FUNDED AMOUNTS. The aggregate amount that
      the Funding Parties shall be committed to provide as Funded Amounts under
      this Master Agreement and the Loan Agreement, and as Synthetic Lease Loans
      under the Credit Agreement, shall not exceed (x) with respect to each
      Leased Property the costs of purchase and construction of such Leased
      Property and the related development, transaction and closing financing
      costs, or (y) $100,000,000 in the aggregate for all Leased Properties. In
      the event that a Lessee exercises a Partial Purchase Option, the
      Commitments shall be reinstated, PRO RATA among the Funding Parties, in

      such Partial Purchase Option. The aggregate amount that any Operative
      Party shall be committed to fund under this Master Agreement and the Loan
      Agreement shall not exceed the lesser of (i) such Operative Party's
      Commitment and (ii) such Operative Partys Commitment Percentage of the
      aggregate Fundings requested under this Master Agreement. In no event
      shall the Funding Parties be committed to provide Funding for development,
      transaction or other soft costs related

                                        3
<PAGE>
      to any Leased Property prior to the acquisition by the Lessor of the Land
      related thereto (it being understood that such costs may be included in a
      Funding for a Leased Property on or after the date that the related Land
      is acquired by the Lessor).

            (d)    NOTICE, TIME AND PLACE OF FUNDINGS. With respect to each
      Funding, Lessee or the Construction Agent, as the case may be, shall give
      the Lessor and the Agent an irrevocable prior written notice not later
      than 12:00 noon, New York City time, at least two Business Days prior to
      the proposed Closing Date or other Funding Date, as the case may be,
      pursuant, in each case, to a Funding Request in the form of EXHIBIT A (a
      "FUNDING REQUEST"), specifying the Closing Date or subsequent Funding
      Date, as the case may be, the amount of Funding requested, whether such
      Funding shall be a Eurodollar Advance or a Base Rate Advance or a
      combination thereof and the Rent Period(s) therefor (it being understood
      that the Funded Amounts, including the Synthetic Lease Loans, shall be
      allocated among Eurodollar Advances, including the Rent Periods therefor,
      and the Base Rate Advance, if any, on a pro rata basis). All documents and
      instruments required to be delivered on such Closing Date pursuant to this
      Master Agreement shall be delivered at the offices of Mayer, Brown &
      Platt, 190 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, or at such other
      location as may be determined by the Lessor, the Construction Agent and
      the Administrative Agent. Each Funding shall occur on a Business Day and
      shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of
      $100,000 in excess thereof. All remittances made by any B Lender and the
      Lessor for any Funding shall be made in immediately available funds by
      wire transfer to or, as is directed by, the Construction Agent, with
      receipt by the Construction Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City
      time, on the applicable Funding Date, upon satisfaction or waiver of the
      conditions precedent to such Funding set forth in SECTION 3; such funds,
      together with the proceeds of the related Synthetic Lease Loans, shall (1)
      in the case of the initial Funding on a Closing Date, be used to pay the
      purchase price to the applicable Seller for the related Land and pay
      development, transaction and closing costs related to such Land, and (2)
      in the case of each subsequent Funding be paid to the Construction Agent,
      for the payment or reimbursement of Construction costs incurred through
      such Funding Date and not previously paid or reimbursed or to pay for
      Construction costs incurred not later than 120 days after the Completion
      Date for the related Leased Property.

            (e)    LESSEE'S DEEMED REPRESENTATION FOR EACH FUNDING. Each Funding
      Request by a Lessee or the Construction Agent shall be deemed a
      reaffirmation of each Lessees indemnity obligations in favor of the
      Indemnitees under the Operative Documents and a representation and
      warranty by such Lessee or the Construction Agent, as the case may be, to
      the Lessor, the Administrative Agent, the Synthetic Lease Loan Lenders and
      the B Lenders that on the proposed Closing Date or Funding Date, as the
      case may be, (i) the amount of Funding requested represents amounts owing
      in respect of the purchase price of the related Land, and any Building
      thereon, and development, transaction and closing costs in respect of the
      Leased Property (in the case of the initial Funding on a Closing Date) or
      amounts that are then due to third parties in respect of the Construction,
      or amounts paid by the Construction Agent to third parties in respect of
      the Construction for which the Construction Agent has not previously been
      reimbursed by a Funding (in the case of any Funding), or amounts for
      Construction costs incurred by the related Lessee not later than 120 days
      after the Completion Date for the related Leased Property, (ii) no

                                        4
<PAGE>
      Event of Default or Potential Event of Default exists, and (iii) the
      representations and warranties of each Obligor set forth in SECTION 4.1
      are true and correct in all material respects as though made on and as of
      such Funding Date, except to the extent such representations or warranties
      relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and
      warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on
      and as of such earlier date.

            (f)    NOT JOINT OBLIGATIONS. Notwithstanding anything to the
      contrary set forth herein or in the other Operative Documents, each B
      Lender's and the Lessor's commitments shall be several, and not joint. In
      no event shall any Funding Party be obligated to fund an amount in excess
      of such Funding Party's Commitment Percentage of any Funding, or to fund
      amounts in the aggregate in excess of such Funding Party's Commitment.

            (g)    NON-PRO RATA FUNDINGS. Notwithstanding anything to the
      contrary set forth in this Master Agreement, at the Administrative Agent's
      option, Fundings may be made by drawing on the Lessor's Commitment until
      such Commitment is fully funded before drawing on the Lenders'
      Commitments. In such event, when the Lessor's Commitment is fully funded,
      the B Lenders and the Synthetic Lease Loan Lenders will fund, on a pro
      rata basis as among themselves, 100% of the amount of the Fundings
      thereafter. In no event shall any Funding Party have any obligation to
      fund any amount in excess of the amount of such Funding Partys Commitment.

            (h)    ADJUSTMENTS FOR NEW COMMITMENT PERCENTAGES. On the first
      Payment Date to occur after the date hereof, each Lender that is a new
      Lender on such date, and each Lender that has increased its Commitment
      such that its new Commitment Percentage is greater than it was pursuant to
      the Original Master Agreement, shall fund or increase, as the case may be,
      its Loans, and the outstanding Loans of the existing Lenders shall be
      prepaid, without premium, penalty or fee, in each case, in such amounts
      that, after giving effect to such Funding and such prepayment, each
      Lenders outstanding Loans will be equal to its Commitment Percentage of
      the outstanding Funded Amounts on such date.

            (i)    INFORMATION REGARDING LEASED PROPERTY. The Construction Agent
      or the Lessee shall provide the Administrative Agent with a general
      description of each property that it proposes to include in the
      Transaction at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed Closing
      Date therefor, and the Administrative Agent shall distribute such
      description to the Funding Parties on or before two (2) Business Days
      thereafter. The Construction Agent or the related Lessee shall deliver to
      the Administrative Agent copies of any and all contracts and documents
      related to such proposed Leased Property promptly upon receipt of a
      request therefor by the Administrative Agent or any Funding Party and the
      Administrative Agent shall distribute such copies to each Funding Party
      that requests such copies.

      SECTION 2.3 FUNDED AMOUNTS AND INTEREST AND YIELD THEREON; FACILITY FEE.

            (a)    The Lessor's Invested Amount for any Leased Property
      outstanding from time to time shall accrue yield ("YIELD") at the Lessor
      Rate, computed using the actual number of days

                                        5
<PAGE>
      elapsed and a 360 day year. If all or a portion of the principal amount of
      or yield on the Lessor's Invested Amounts shall not be paid when due
      (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such
      overdue amount shall, without limiting the rights of the Lessor under the
      Lease, to the maximum extent permitted by law, accrue yield at the Overdue
      Rate, from the date of nonpayment until paid in full (both before and
      after judgment).

            (b)    Each B Lender's Funded Amount for any Leased Property
      outstanding from time to time shall accrue interest as provided in the
      Loan Agreement. Each Synthetic Lease Loan Lender's Funded Amount for any
      Leased Property outstanding from time to time shall accrue interest as
      provided in the Credit Agreement.

            (c)    During the Construction Term and for the period from the
      Completion Date to the 120th day after the Completion Date, in lieu of the
      payment of accrued interest, on each Payment Date, each Lender's Funded
      Amount in respect of a Construction Land Interest shall automatically be
      increased by the amount of interest accrued and unpaid on the related
      Loans pursuant to the Loan Agreement during the Rent Period ending
      immediately prior to such Payment Date (except to the extent that at any
      time such increase would cause such Lenders Funded Amount to exceed such
      Lender's Commitment, in which event the related Lessee shall pay such
      excess amount to such Lender in immediately available funds on such
      Payment Date). Similarly, in lieu of the payment of accrued Yield, on each
      Payment Date, the Lessor's Invested Amount in respect of a Construction
      Land Interest shall automatically be increased by the amount of Yield
      accrued on the Lessor's Invested Amount in respect of such Leased Property
      during the Rent Period ending immediately prior to such Payment Date
      (except to the extent that at any time such increase would cause the
      Lessor's Invested Amount to exceed the Lessor's Commitment, in which event
      the related Lessee shall pay such excess amount to the Lessor in
      immediately available funds on such Payment Date). Such increases in
      Funded Amounts shall occur without any disbursement of funds by the
      Funding Parties.

            (d)    Three Business Days prior to the last day of each Rent
      Period, the Company shall deliver to the Lessor and the Administrative
      Agent a notice substantially in the form of EXHIBIT I (each, a "PAYMENT
      DATE NOTICE"), appropriately completed, specifying the allocation of the
      Funded Amounts related to such Rent Period to Eurodollar Advances and Base
      Rate Advances and the Rent Periods therefor (IT BEING UNDERSTOOD that the
      Funded Amounts, including the Synthetic Lease Loans, shall be allocated
      among Eurodollar Advances and the Base Rate Advance, if any, on a pro rata
      basis), PROVIDED that no such allocation shall be in an amount less than
      $1,000,000. Each such Payment Date Notice shall be irrevocable. If no such
      notice is given, the Funded Amounts shall be allocated to a Eurodollar
      Advance with a Rent Period of three (3) months.

            (e)    The Company hereby agrees to pay to each B Lender a facility
      fee for each day from the date hereof until the Lease Termination Date
      equal to (i) 0.50% PER ANNUM TIMES (ii) the mount of such B Lender's
      Commitment, MINUS such B Lenders Funded Amount on such day, TIMES (iii)
      1/360. The Company hereby agrees to pay to the Lessor a facility fee for
      each day from the date hereof until the Lease Termination Date equal to
      (i) 0.50% PER ANNUM TIMES (ii) the

                                        6
<PAGE>
amount of the Lessor's Commitment, MINUS the Lessor's Invested Amount on such
day, TIMES (iii) 1/360. Such facility fee shall be payable in arrears on each
Quarterly Date and on the date that such Commitments are reduced to zero.

      SECTION 2.4 LESSEE OWNER FOR TAX PURPOSES. With respect to each Leased
Property, it is the intent of the Lessees and the Funding Parties that for
federal, state and local tax and commercial law purposes the Lease shall be
treated as the repayment and security provisions of a loan by the Lessor to the
Lessees, and that the related Lessee shall be treated as the legal and
beneficial owner entitled to any and all benefits of ownership of such Leased
Property and all payments of Basic Rent during the Lease Term shall be treated
as payments of interest and, if applicable, principal. Each Lessee and each
Funding Party agree to file tax returns consistent with such intent.
Nevertheless, each of the Company and each Lessee acknowledges and agrees that
no Funding Party or any other Person has made any representations or warranties
concerning the tax, financial, accounting or legal characteristics or treatment
of the Operative Documents and that Lessee has obtained and relied solely upon
the advice of its own tax, accounting and legal advisors concerning the
Operative Documents and the accounting, tax, financial and legal consequences of
the transactions contemplated therein.

      SECTION 2.5 AMOUNTS DUE UNDER LEASE. With respect to each Leased Property,
anything else herein or elsewhere to the contrary notwithstanding, it is the
intention of the Lessees and the Funding Parties that: (i) subject to CLAUSES
(II) and (III) below, the amount and timing of Basic Rent due and payable from
time to time from the related Lessee under the Lease shall be equal to the
aggregate payments due and payable with respect to interest on the B Loans and
the Synthetic Lease Loans in respect of such Leased Property and Yield on the
Lessors Invested Amounts in respect of such Leased Property on each Payment
Date; (ii) if the related Lessee elects the Purchase Option with respect to a
Leased Property or becomes obligated to purchase such Leased Property under the
Lease, the Funded Amounts in respect of such Leased Property, all interest and
Yield thereon and all other obligations of the related Lessee owing to the
Funding Parties in respect of such Leased Property shall be paid in full by
Lessee, (iii) if the related Lessee properly elects the Remarketing Option, the
principal amount of, and accrued interest on, the Synthetic Lease Loans in
respect of the Leased Properties, will be paid out of the Recourse Deficiency
Amount, and the related Lessee shall only be required to pay to the B Lenders in
respect of the principal amount of the B Loans and to the Lessor in respect of
the Lessors Invested Amounts, the proceeds of the sale of the Leased Properties
in accordance with Section 14.6 of the Lease; and (iv) upon an Event of Default
resulting in an acceleration of the related Lessees obligation to purchase the
Leased Properties under the Lease, the amounts then due and payable by the
Lessees under the Lease shall include all amounts necessary to pay in full the B
Loans and the Synthetic Lease Loans, and accrued interest thereon, the Lessors
Invested Amounts and accrued Yield thereon and all other obligations of the
Lessees owing to the Funding Parties pursuant to the Operative Documents and the
Credit Agreement.

            report of the Appraiser (an "APPRAISAL"), paid for by the Company or

            value of such Land and existing Buildings or any Building to be

            utilized in connection with the Leased Property and to be funded by

            related Closing Date, an Appraisal meeting the foregoing
            requirements need not be delivered on or prior to the Closing Date
            but shall be delivered on or before the 45th day following the
            development of Plans and Specifications for a Building thereon; if
            the "as vacant" value shown in the Appraisal so obtained by the
            Funding Parties fails to meet the requirement of the preceding
            sentence, such failure shall constitute an Event of Default.

            shall have delivered to the Lessor and the Administrative Agent a
            letter stating that the Lessor, the Administrative Agent and the

            acceptance of any such Environmental Audit shall not release or
            impair Lessee's obligations under the Operative Documents with
            respect to any environmental liabilities relating to such Leased
            Property.

            Agent shall have received from the related Lessee certificates of

            Agent and the Lenders as additional insured or loss payee with
            respect to such insurance, as their interests may appear), in form
            and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lessor and the

            Construction have been paid in full (other than contingent
            obligations for which the Construction Agent has made adequate
            reserves), and no litigation or proceedings are pending, or to the
            best of the Construction Agents knowledge, are threatened, against
            such Leased Property or the Construction Agent or the related Lessee
            which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
            Effect;

                  (ii) all material consents, licenses and permits and other

                  (iii) such Leased Property has available all services of

<PAGE>
            Leased Property as the related Lessee intends to use such Leased
            Property under the Lease and which are necessary to permit the
            lawful intended use and operation of all then intended utilities,
            driveways, roads and other means of egress and ingress to and from
            the same have been obtained and are in full force and effect and
            neither the Construction Agent nor the related Lessee has any
            knowledge of any pending modification or cancellation of any of the
            same; and the use of such Leased Property does not depend on any
            variance, special exception or other municipal approval, permit or
            consent that has not been obtained and is in full force and effect
            for its continuing legal use;

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                 REPRESENTATIONS

      SECTION 4.1 REPRESENTATIONS OF OBLIGORS. Effective as of the date of
execution hereof, as of each Closing Date and as of each Funding Date, each
Obligor represents and warrants to each of the other parties hereto as follows:

            (a)    CORPORATE EXISTENCE. Each Obligor: (i) is a corporation,
      partnership or other entity duly organized, validly existing and in good
      standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; (ii) has
      all requisite corporate or other power, and has all material governmental
      licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its
      assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be
      conducted; and (iii) is qualified to do business and is in good standing
      in all jurisdictions in which the nature of the business conducted by it
      makes such qualification necessary and where failure so to qualify could
      reasonably be expected to (either individually or in the aggregate) have a
      Material Adverse Effect.

            (b)    FINANCIAL CONDITION. The Obligors have heretofore furnished
      to each of the Funding Parties the consolidated and consolidating balance
      sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 1999 and the
      related consolidated and consolidating statements of income, retained
      earnings and cash flow of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal
      year ended on said date, with the opinion thereon (in the case of said
      consolidated balance sheet and statements) of Arthur Andersen LLP, and the
      unaudited consolidated and consolidating balance sheets of the Company and
      its Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2000 and the related consolidated and
      consolidating statements of income and retained earnings of the Company
      and its Subsidiaries for the

                                       18
<PAGE>
      three-month period ended on such date. All such financial statements are
      complete and correct and fairly present the consolidated financial
      condition of the Obligors, and (in the case of said consolidating
      financial statements) the respective unconsolidated financial condition of
      the Obligors, as at said dates and the consolidated and unconsolidated
      results of their operations for the fiscal year and three-month period
      ended on said dates (subject, in the case of such financial statements as
      at March 31, 2000, to normal year-end audit adjustments), all in
      accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices
      applied on a consistent basis, except as otherwise indicated in the notes
      thereto. None of the Obligors has on the date hereof any material
      contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or
      long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any
      unfavorable commitments, in each case, of a type required to be reflected
      in a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP, except as referred to
      or reflected or provided for in said balance sheets as at said dates.
      Since December 31, 1999, there has been no material adverse change in the
      consolidated financial condition, operations, business or prospects taken
      as a whole of the Obligors from that set forth in said financial
      statements as at said date.

            (c)    LITIGATION. There are no legal or arbitral proceedings, or
      any proceedings by or before any governmental or regulatory authority or
      agency, now pending or (to the knowledge of the Company) threatened
      against any Obligor that, if adversely determined could be reasonably
      expected to (either individually or in the aggregate) have a Material
      Adverse Effect.

            (d)    NO BREACH. None of the execution and delivery of this Master
      Agreement and the other Operative Documents, the consummation of the
      transactions herein and therein contemplated or compliance with the terms
      and provisions hereof and thereof will conflict with or result in a breach
      of, or require any consent under, the charter or by-laws of any Obligor,
      or any applicable law or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or
      decree of any court or governmental authority or agency, or any agreement
      or instrument to which any Obligor is a party or by which any of them or
      any of their Property is bound or to which any of them is subject (other
      than such consents as have been obtained and are in full force and
      effect), or constitute a default under any such agreement or instrument,
      or (except for the Liens created pursuant to the Operative Documents)
      result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any Property of the
      Obligors pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument.

            (e)    ACTION. Each Obligor has all necessary power, authority and
      legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of
      the Operative Documents to which it is a party; the execution, delivery
      and performance by each Obligor of each of the Operative Documents to
      which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
      action on its part (including, without limitation, any required
      shareholder approvals); and this Master Agreement has been duly and
      validly executed and delivered by each Obligor and constitutes, and each
      of the other Operative Documents to which it is a party when executed and
      delivered by such Obligor will

                                       19
<PAGE>
      constitute, its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against
      each Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability
      may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
      or similar laws of general applicability affecting the enforcement of
      creditors rights and (b) the application of general principles of equity
      (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding
      in equity or at law).

            (f)    APPROVALS. No authorizations, approvals or consents of, and
      no filings or registrations with, any governmental or regulatory authority
      or agency, or any securities exchange, are necessary for the execution,
      delivery or performance by any Obligor of the Operative Documents to which
      it is a party or for the legality, validity or enforceability hereof or
      thereof, except for filings and recordings in respect of the Liens created
      pursuant to the Operative Documents.

            (g)    USE OF CREDIT. None of the Obligors is engaged principally,
      or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit
      for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or
      carrying Margin Stock, and no part of the proceeds of any extension of
      credit hereunder will be used to buy or carry any Margin Stock.

            (h)    ERISA. Each Plan, and, to the knowledge of each Obligor, each
      Multiemployer Plan, is in compliance in all material respects with, and
      has been administered in all material respects in compliance with, the
      applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and any other Federal or State
      law, and no event or condition has occurred and is continuing as to which
      any Obligor would be under an obligation to furnish a report to the
      Funding Parties under SECTION 5.1(A)(VIII) hereof.

            (i)    TAXES. The Obligors are members of an affiliated group of
      corporations filing consolidated returns for Federal income tax purposes,
      of which the Company is the "common parent" (within the meaning of Section
      1504 of the Code) of such group. Each Obligor has filed (either directly,
      or indirectly through the Company) all Federal income tax returns and all
      other material tax returns that are required to be filed by them and have
      paid (either directly, or indirectly through the Company) all taxes due
      pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment received by any
      Obligor, except for any taxes being contested by an Obligor in good faith
      by proper proceedings as to which no Liens have been created on any
      Property of any Obligor. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books
      of the Obligors in respect of taxes and other governmental charges are, in
      the opinion of the Obligors, adequate. The Company has not given or been
      requested to give a waiver of the statute of limitations relating to the
      payment of Federal, state, local and foreign taxes or other impositions.

            (j)    INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT. None of the Obligors is an
      "investment company", or a company "controlled" by an "investment
      company", within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
      amended.

                                       20
<PAGE>
            (k)    PUBLIC UTILITY HOLDING COMPANY ACT. None of the Obligors is a
      "holding company", or an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or a
      "subsidiary company" of a "holding company", within the meaning of the
      Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

            (l)    Material Agreements and Liens.

                  (i) PART A of SCHEDULE I hereto is a complete and correct
            list, as of the date of this Master Agreement, of each credit
            agreement, loan agreement, indenture, purchase agreement, guarantee,
            letter of credit or other arrangement providing for or otherwise
            relating to any Indebtedness or any extension of credit (or
            commitment for any extension of credit) to, or guarantee by, any
            Obligor, and the aggregate principal or face amount outstanding or
            that may become outstanding under each such arrangement is correctly
            described in PART A of said SCHEDULE I.

                  (ii) PART B of SCHEDULE I hereto is a complete and correct
            list, as of the date of this Master Agreement, of each Lien securing
            Indebtedness of any Person and covering any Obligor, and the
            aggregate Indebtedness secured (or that may be secured) by each such
            Lien and the Property covered by each such Lien is correctly
            described in PART B of said SCHEDULE I.

            (m)    ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. Each Obligor has obtained all
      environmental, health and safety permits, licenses and other
      authorizations required under all applicable Environmental Laws to carry
      on its business as now being or as currently proposed to be conducted,
      except to the extent failure to have any such permit, license or
      authorization would not (either individually or in the aggregate) have a
      Material Adverse Effect. Each of such permits, licenses and authorizations
      is in full force and effect and each of the Obligors is in compliance with
      the terms and conditions thereof, and is also in compliance with all other
      limitations, restrictions, conditions, standards, prohibitions,
      requirements, obligations, schedules and timetables contained in any
      applicable Environmental Law, except to the extent failure to comply
      therewith would not (either individually or in the aggregate) have a
      Material Adverse Effect.

      In addition, except as set forth in SCHEDULE II hereto:

                  (i) No notice, notification, demand, request for information,
            citation, summons or order has been issued to any Obligor or about
            which any Obligor has otherwise become aware, no complaint has been
            filed against any Obligor or about which any Obligor has otherwise
            become aware, no penalty has been assessed against any Obligor or
            about which any Obligor has otherwise become aware and no
            investigation or review is pending or, to the knowledge of any
            Obligor, threatened by any governmental authority or other entity
            with respect to

                                       21
<PAGE>
            any alleged failure by any Obligor to have any environmental, health
            or safety permit, license or other authorization required under any
            Environmental Law in connection with the conduct of the business of
            any Obligor or with respect to any generation, treatment, storage,
            recycling, transportation, discharge or disposal, or any Release of
            any Hazardous Materials generated by any Obligor, which has either
            not been resolved to the satisfaction of the issuing authority or
            which would not individually or in the aggregate have a Material
            Adverse Effect.

                  (ii) None of the Obligors owns, operates or leases a
            treatment, storage or disposal facility requiring a permit under the
            Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended, or under
            any comparable state or local statute; and

                        1) no polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are or have been

                  operated or leased by any Obligor;

                        2) no asbestos or asbestos-containing materials that are
                  friable or bear a reasonable chance of becoming friable are or
                  have been present at any site or facility now or previously
                  owned, operated or leased by any Obligor;

                        3) there are no underground storage tanks for Hazardous
                  Materials, active or abandoned, at any site or facility now or
                  previously owned, operated or leased by any Obligor that are
                  not in material compliance with all applicable Environmental
                  Laws, and there are no surface impoundments for Hazardous
                  Materials, active or abandoned at any site or facility now or

                  by any applicable Environmental Law; and

                        5) no Hazardous Materials have been otherwise Released
                  at, on or under any site or facility now or previously owned,
                  operated or leased by any Obligor that would (either
                  individually or in the aggregate) have a Material Adverse
                  Effect.

                  (iii) None of the Obligors has transported or arranged for the
            transportation of any Hazardous Material to any location that is
            listed on the National Priorities List ("NPL") under the
            Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
            of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA"),

                                       22
<PAGE>
            listed for possible inclusion on the NPL by the Environmental
            Protection Agency in the Comprehensive Environmental Response and
            Liability Information System, as provided for by 40 C.F.R. (ss)300.5
            ("CERCLIS"), or on any similar state or local list or that is the
            subject of Federal, state or local enforcement actions or other
            investigations that may lead to Environmental Claims against the
            Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which individually or in the
            aggregate would have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (iv) No Hazardous Material generated by the Company or any of
            its Subsidiaries has been recycled, treated, stored, disposed of or
            Released by any Obligor at any facility which is subject to an
            Environmental Claim which would reasonably be expected individually
            or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (v) No oral or written notification of a Release of a
            Hazardous Material has been filed by or on behalf of the Company or
            any of its Subsidiaries and no site or facility now or previously
            owned, operated or leased by any Obligor is listed or to the
            knowledge of any Obligor (upon due investigation) proposed for
            listing on the NPL, CERCLIS or any similar state list of sites
            requiring investigation or clean-up, in each case, which has either
            not been resolved to the satisfaction of the issuing authority or
            which would not individually or in the aggregate have a Material
            Adverse Effect.

                  (vi) No Liens have arisen under or pursuant to any
            Environmental Laws on any site or facility owned, operated or leased
            by any Obligor, and no government action has been taken or is in
            process that could subject any such site or facility to such Liens
            and none of the Obligors would be required to place any notice or
            restriction relating to the presence of Hazardous Materials at any
            site or facility owned by it in any deed to the real property on
            which such site or facility is located.

                  (vii) All investigations, studies, audits, tests, reviews or
            other analyses conducted by or that are in the possession of any
            Obligor relating to environmental matters at or affecting any site
            or facility now or previously owned, operated or leased by any
            Obligor and that reveal facts, circumstances or conditions that
            could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect
            have been made available to the Funding Parties.

      number of shares of authorized capital stock of the Company, the class of

                                       32
<PAGE>
            without limitation, any Plan or Multiemployer Plan and any reports

            the Company, as any B Lender, the Lessor or the Administrative Agent
            may reasonably request.

      The Company will furnish to each of the Lessor, each B Lender and the
Administrative Agent, at the time it furnishes each set of financial statements
pursuant to PARAGRAPH (II), (III) or (IV) above, a certificate of a senior
financial officer of the Company to the effect that no Default has occurred and
is continuing (or, if any Default has occurred and is continuing, describing the
same in reasonable detail and describing the action that the Company has taken
or proposes to take with respect thereto). In addition, at the time the Company
furnishes to each of the Lessor, each B Lender and the Administrative Agent, the
financial statements required pursuant to PARAGRAPH (III) above, the Company
shall furnish to each of the Lessor, each B Lender and the Administrative Agent,
a certificate of a senior financial officer setting forth in reasonable detail
the computations necessary to determine whether the Company is in compliance
with SECTIONS 5.1(I), (K), (L), (M),(N) and (O) hereof as of the date as of
which such financial statements have been provided. Further, upon the request of
any B Lender, at the time the Company furnishes the financial statements
required pursuant to paragraph (ii) above, the Company shall furnish to each of
the Lessor, each B Lender and the Administrative Agent, a certificate of a
senior financial officer setting forth in reasonable detail the computations
necessary to determine whether the Company is in compliance with SECTIONS
5.1(I), (K), (L), (M), (N) and (O) hereof as of date as of which such financial
statements have been provided.

            (b)    LITIGATION. The Company will promptly give to each B Lender
      and the Administrative Agent notice of all legal or arbitral proceedings,
      and of all proceedings by or before any governmental or regulatory
      authority or agency, and any material development in respect of such legal
      or other proceedings, affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
      except proceedings that, if adversely determined, would not (either
      individually or in the aggregate) have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (c)    EXISTENCE, ETC. The Company will, and will cause each of its
      Subsidiaries to:

                  (i) preserve and maintain its legal existence and all of its
            material rights, privileges, licenses and franchises;

                  (ii) comply with the requirements of all applicable laws,
            rules, regulations and orders of governmental or regulatory
            authorities if failure to comply with such requirements could be
            reasonably expected to (either individually or in the aggregate)
            have a Material Adverse Effect;

                  (iii) pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and
            governmental charges or levies imposed on it or on its income or
            profits or on any of its Property prior to the date on which
            penalties attach thereto, except for any such tax, assessment,
            charge or levy the payment of which is being contested in good faith
            and by proper proceedings and against which adequate reserves are
            being maintained;

                                       33
<PAGE>
                  (iv) maintain all of its Properties necessary to the conduct
            of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear
            and tear excepted;

                  (v) keep adequate records and books of account, in which
            complete entries will be made in accordance with generally accepted
            accounting principles consistently applied; and

                  (vi) upon notice to the Company, permit representatives of any
            B Lender, the Lessor or the Administrative Agent, during normal
            business hours, to examine, copy and make extracts from its books
            and records, to inspect any of its Properties, and to discuss its
            business and affairs with its officers, all to the extent reasonably
            requested by such B Lender, the Lessor or the Administrative Agent
            (as the case may be).

            (d)    INSURANCE. The Company will, and will cause each of its
      Subsidiaries to, maintain insurance with financially sound and reputable
      insurance companies, and with respect to Property and risks of a character
      usually maintained by corporations of comparable size engaged in the same
      or similar business and similarly situated, against loss, damage and
      liability of the kinds and in the amounts customarily maintained by such
      corporations. The Company will in any event maintain (with respect to
      itself and each of its Subsidiaries):

                  (i) CASUALTY INSURANCE -- insurance against loss or damage
            covering all of the tangible real and personal Property and
            improvements of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries by reason
            of any Peril (as defined below) in such amounts (subject to such
            reasonable and customary deductibles as shall be satisfactory to the
            Required Lenders) as shall be reasonable and customary and
            sufficient to avoid the insured named therein from becoming a
            co-insurer of any loss under such policy but in any event in an
            amount (A) in the case of fixed assets and equipment (including,
            without limitation, vehicles), at least equal to 100% of the actual
            replacement cost of such assets, subject to deductibles as aforesaid
            and (B) in the case of inventory, not less than the fair market
            value thereof, subject to deductibles as aforesaid, PROVIDED that
            insurance in respect of Perils consisting of floods shall not be
            required to be obtained except upon 30 days prior notice from the
            Administrative Agent.

                  (ii) AUTOMOBILE LIABILITY INSURANCE FOR BODILY INJURY AND
            PROPERTY DAMAGE -- insurance against liability for bodily injury and
            property damage in respect of all vehicles (whether owned, hired or
            rented by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) at any time
            located at, or used in connection with, its Properties or operations
            in such amounts as are then customary for vehicles used in
            connection with similar Properties and businesses, but in any event
            to the extent required by applicable law.

                  (iii) COMPREHENSIVE GENERAL LIABILITY INSURANCE -- insurance
            against claims for bodily injury, death or Property damage occurring
            on, in or about the Properties (and adjoining streets, sidewalks and
            waterways) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in such


                                       34
<PAGE>
            amounts as are then customary for Property similar in use in the
            jurisdictions where such Properties are located.

                  (iv) WORKERS COMPENSATION INSURANCE -- workers compensation
            insurance (including, without limitation, Employers Liability
            Insurance) to the extent required by applicable law.

                  (v) BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE -- insurance against loss
            of operating income (up to an aggregate amount equal to $20,000,000
            and subject to a deductible, or self-insured amount, not in excess
            of $100,000) by reason of any Peril.

                  (vi) PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE -- professional
            liability insurance in an amount equal to at least $10,000,000.

Such insurance shall be written by financially responsible companies selected by
the Company and (except for automobile insurance) having an A.M. Best rating of
"A" or better and being in a financial size category of VII or larger (or, with
respect to professional liability insurance only, an equivalent rating by a
European equivalent of A.M. Best), or by other companies acceptable to the
Required Lenders, and (other than for workers compensation) shall name the
Administrative Agent as loss payee (to the extent covering risk of loss or
damage to tangible property) and as an additional named insured as its interests
may appear (to the extent covering any other risk). Each policy referred to in
this SECTION 5.1(D) shall provide that it will not be canceled or reduced, or
allowed to lapse without renewal, except after not less than 30 days notice to
the Administrative Agent and shall also provide that the interests of the
Administrative Agent and the Funding Parties shall not be invalidated by any act
or negligence of the Company or any Person having an interest in any Property
covered by the Mortgage (as defined in the Credit Agreement) nor by occupancy or
use of any such Property for purposes more hazardous than permitted by such
policy nor by any foreclosure or other proceedings relating to such Property.
The Company will advise the Administrative Agent promptly of any significant
policy cancellation (other than any such cancellation in connection with the
replacement thereof), reduction or amendment.

      On or before the Initial Closing Date, the Company will deliver to the
Administrative Agent certificates of insurance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent evidencing the existence of all insurance required to be
maintained by the Company hereunder setting forth the respective coverages,
limits of liability, carrier, policy number and period of coverage and showing
that such insurance will remain in effect through the December 31 falling at
least six months after the date hereof, subject only to the payment of premiums
as they become due. Thereafter, the Company will maintain all insurance required
to be maintained by the Company hereunder through the December 31 of each
subsequent calendar year, subject only to the payment of premiums as they become
due and the availability of such coverage. In addition, the Company will not
modify any of the provisions of any policy with respect to professional
liability insurance without delivering the original copy of the endorsement
reflecting such modification to the Administrative Agent accompanied by a
written report of Summit Global Partners, or any


                                       35
<PAGE>
other firm of independent insurance brokers of nationally recognized standing,
stating that, in their opinion, such policy (as so modified) adequately protects
the interests of the Funding Parties and the Administrative Agent, is in
compliance with the provisions of this SECTION 5.1(D), and is comparable in all
respects with insurance carried by responsible owners and operators of
businesses similar to those of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company
will not obtain or carry separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing
in the event of loss with that required by this SECTION 5.1(D) unless the
Administrative Agent is the named insured thereunder, with loss payable as
provided herein. The Company will immediately notify the Administrative Agent
whenever any such separate insurance is obtained and shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent the certificates evidencing the same.

      Without limiting the obligations of the Company under the foregoing
provisions of this SECTION 5.1(D), in the event the Company shall fail to
maintain in full force and effect insurance as required by the foregoing
provisions of this SECTION 5.1(D), then the Administrative Agent may (upon
notice to the Company), but shall have no obligation so to do, procure insurance
covering the interests of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent in such
amounts and against such risks as the Administrative Agent (or the Required
Lenders) shall deem appropriate, and the Company shall reimburse the
Administrative Agent in respect of any premiums paid by the Administrative Agent
in respect thereof.

      For purposes hereof, the term "PERIL" shall mean, collectively, fire,
lightning, flood, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot and civil commotion,
vandalism and malicious mischief, damage from aircraft, vehicles and smoke and
all other perils covered by the "all-risk" endorsement then in use in the
jurisdictions where the Properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries are
located.

            (e) PROHIBITION OF FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES. The Company will not, nor
      will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any transaction of
      merger or consolidation or amalgamation, or liquidate, wind up or dissolve
      itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution). The Company will not,
      nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, acquire any business or
      Property from, or capital stock of, or be a party to any acquisition of,
      any Person except for (w) purchases of inventory and other Property to be
      sold or used in the ordinary course of business, (x) Investments permitted
      under SECTION 5.1(H) hereof, (y) Capital Expenditures permitted under
      SECTION 5.1(O) hereof and (z) other acquisitions so long as the aggregate
      consideration paid by the Obligors for all such acquisitions does not
      exceed $250,000. The Company will not, nor will it permit any of its
      Subsidiaries to, convey, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of, in
      one transaction or a series of transactions, any part of its business or
      Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including, without
      limitation, receivables and leasehold interests, but excluding (i)
      obsolete or worn-out Property, tools or equipment no longer used or useful
      in its business, or any inventory or other Property sold or disposed of in
      the ordinary course of business and on ordinary business terms (so long as
      the aggregate fair market value of all such Property disposed of shall not
      exceed (x) $3,000,000 in the aggregate and (y) $1,000,000 in any year),
      (ii) the granting of Liens to secure the Senior Notes, the Obligations and
      any Future Synthetic Lease Financing, (iii) Municipal Transaction
      Transfers so long as (x) the aggregate consideration received by the
      Obligors in connection with any Municipal Transaction Transfer is


                                       36
<PAGE>
      not less than the depreciated book value of the Property that is the
      subject of such Municipal Transaction Transfer, and (y) the aggregate Net
      Available Proceeds of all Municipal Transaction Transfer does not exceed
      $175,000,000, (iv) sale lease-back transactions that the Obligors are
      permitted to enter into pursuant to Section 5.1(p) hereof, and (v) other
      dispositions so long as the aggregate fair market value of all Property so
      disposed of does not exceed $250,000).

            (f)   LIMITATION ON LIENS. The Company will not, nor will it permit
      any of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any
      Lien upon any of its Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired,
      except (without duplication):

                  (i) Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents (as
            defined in the Credit Agreement) or the Operative Documents;

            B of SCHEDULE I hereto;

            assessments or charges not yet due or that are being contested in
            good faith and by appropriate proceedings if adequate reserves with
            respect thereto are maintained on the books of the Company or the
            affected Subsidiaries, as the case may be, in accordance with GAAP;

                  (iv) carriers', warehousemen's, mechanic's, materialmen's,

            business that are not overdue for a period of more than 30 days or

            proceedings and Liens securing judgments but only to the extent for
            an amount and for a period not resulting in an Event of Default
            under Section 10(h) hereof;

            thereto that, in the aggregate, are not material in amount, and that
            do not in any case materially detract from the value of the Property
            subject thereto or interfere with the ordinary conduct of the
            business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

                  (viii) Liens upon real and/or tangible personal Property

      shall deliver copies thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Company);

            (e)   it will permit the Administrative Agent, the Company and their
      respective representatives to examine, and make copies from, the Lessors

      for the purpose of examining such materials, and to discuss the Lessors
      performance hereunder with any of its, or its general partners, officers
      and employees;

      to Section 14.9(c) of the Lease, the Administrative Agent and, except
      during the continuance of a Default, the Company must give its prior
      written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be
      unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such assignment is to an
      Affiliate of the assigning B Lender, (ii) unless such B Lender is
      assigning all of its Commitment, after giving effect to such assignment,
      the Commitment of both the assignor and the assignee is at least
      $1,000,000,(iii) such B Lender will assign its Commitment hereunder and

      or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Master Agreement and
      the Loan Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the B
      Loans owing to it), PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) such B Lenders obligations
      under this Master Agreement and the Loan Agreement shall remain unchanged,
      (ii) such B Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
      hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating
      bank or other entity shall not be entitled to any greater benefit than its
      selling Lender under the cost protection provisions contained in Section
      7.5 of this Master Agreement, and (iv) each Lessee, the Administrative
      Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly

      of Lessor relating to the B Loans and to approve any amendment,
      modification or waiver of any provisions of this Master Agreement and the
      Loan Agreement (except that such Lender may permit the participant to
      approve any amendment, modification or waiver which would reduce the
      principal of or the interest rate on its B Loan, extend the term of such B
      Lenders Commitment, reduce the amount of any fees to which such
      participant is entitled or extend the final scheduled payment date of any
      B Loan). Any B Lender selling a participation hereunder shall provide
      prompt written notice to the Administrative Agent of the name of such
      participant.

            (d)    Any B Lender or participant may, in connection with the
      assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation,
      pursuant to this Section, disclose to the assignee or participant or
      proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Company
      or its Subsidiaries furnished to such B Lender by or on behalf of the
      Company. With respect to any disclosure of confidential, non-public,
      proprietary information, such proposed assignee or participant shall agree
      to use the information only for the purpose of making any necessary credit
      judgments with respect to this facility and not to use the information in
      any manner prohibited by any law, including without limitation, the
      securities laws of the United States. The proposed participant or assignee
      shall agree not to disclose any of such information except as permitted by
      this Master Agreement. The proposed participant or assignee shall further
      agree to return all documents or other written material and copies thereof
      received from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or Lessee relating to
      such confidential information unless otherwise properly disposed of by
      such entity.

            (e)    Any B Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its
      rights under this Master Agreement and the Notes to a Federal Reserve
      Bank; PROVIDED that no such assignment shall release such B Lender from
      any of its obligations hereunder.

      any representation or warranty made by it or deemed made by it in any
      Operative Document or any certificate required to be delivered by any
      Operative Document;

                                       48
<PAGE>
            (e)    the retaining or employment of any broker, finder or
      financial advisor by the Company or any Lessee to act on its behalf in
      connection with this Master Agreement, or the incurring of any fees or

            (g)    the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other

            Materials, or any releases or discharges of any Hazardous Materials
            on, under, from or onto any Land,

                  (ii) any activity, including, without limitation,

            (including, without limitation, clean-up costs, response costs,
            remediation and removal costs, cost of corrective action, costs of
            financial assurance, fines and penalties and natural resource

            vegetation, flora and fauna, and any mitigative action required by
            or under Environmental Laws, in each case to the extent related to
            any Leased Property,

                  (iv) any claim concerning any Leased Propertys lack of
            compliance with Environmental Laws, or any act or omission causing
            an environmental condition on or with respect to any Leased Property
            that requires remediation or would allow any governmental agency to
            record a lien or encumbrance on the land records, or

                  (v) any residual contamination on or under any Land, or
            affecting any natural resources on any Land, and to any
            contamination of any property or natural resources arising in
            connection with the generation, use, handling, storage, transport or
            disposal of any such Hazardous Materials on or from any Leased
            Property; in each case irrespective of whether any of such
            activities were or will be undertaken in accordance with applicable
            laws, regulations, codes and ordinances;

in any case with respect to the matters described in the foregoing CLAUSES (I)
through (V) that arise or occur

            (w)    prior to or during the Lease Term,

                                       50
<PAGE>
            (x)    at any time during which a Lessee or any Affiliate thereof
      owns any interest in or otherwise occupies or possesses any Leased
      Property or any portion thereof, or

            (y)    during any period after and during the continuance of any
      Event of Default;

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, neither the Company nor any Lessee shall be required to
indemnify any Indemnitee under this SECTION 7.2 for any Claim to the extent that
such Claim results from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such
Indemnitee. It is expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity provided
for herein shall survive the expiration or termination of and shall be separate
and independent from any other remedy under this Master Agreement, the Lease or
any other Operative Document.

      SECTION 7.3 PROCEEDINGS IN RESPECT OF CLAIMS. With respect to any amount
that a Lessee is requested by an Indemnitee to pay by reason of SECTION 7.1 or
7.2, such Indemnitee shall, if so requested by such Lessee and prior to any
payment, submit such additional information to such Lessee as such Lessee may
reasonably request and which is in the possession of, or under the control of,
such Indemnitee to substantiate properly the requested payment. In case any
action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnitee, such
Indemnitee promptly shall notify the Company of the commencement thereof
(PROVIDED that the failure of such Indemnitee to promptly notify the Company
shall not affect the Companys or any Lessees obligation to indemnify hereunder
except to the extent that any Lessees ability to contest is materially
prejudiced by such failure), and a Lessee shall be entitled, at its expense, to
participate in, and, to the extent that a Lessee desires to, assume and control
the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such Indemnitee may pursue a motion to dismiss such
Indemnitee from such action, suit or proceeding with counsel of such Indemnitees
choice at the Lessees expense; and PROVIDED FURTHER that a Lessee may assume and
control the defense of such proceeding only if the Company shall have
acknowledged in writing its and each Lessees obligations to fully indemnify such
Indemnitee in respect of such action, suit or proceeding, Lessees shall pay all
reasonable costs and expenses related to such action, suit or proceeding as and
when incurred and the related Lessee shall keep such Indemnitee fully apprised
of the status of such action suit or proceeding and shall provide such
Indemnitee with all information with respect to such action suit or proceeding
as such Indemnitee shall reasonably request; and, PROVIDED FURTHER, that no
Lessee shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of any such action,
suit or proceeding if and to the extent that, (A) in the reasonable opinion of
such Indemnitee, (x) such action, suit or proceeding involves any possibility of
imposition of criminal liability or any material risk of civil liability on such
Indemnitee in excess of $5,000,000 or (y) the control of such action, suit or
proceeding would involve an actual or potential conflict of interest, (B) such
proceeding involves Claims not fully indemnified by the Lessees which the
Lessees and the Indemnitee have been unable to sever from the indemnified
claim(s), or (C) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The
Indemnitee may participate in a reasonable manner at its own expense and with
its own counsel in any proceeding conducted by a Lessee in accordance with the
foregoing.

                                       51
<PAGE>
      If the Lessees fails to fulfill the conditions to a Lessees assuming the
defense of any claim after receiving notice thereof on or prior to the date that
is fifteen (15) days prior to the date that an answer or response is required,
the Indemnitee may undertake such defense, at the Lessees expense. No Lessee
shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim
which is entitled to be indemnified under SECTION 7.1 or 7.2 that is in excess
of $1,000,000 or that acknowledges guilt or fault on the part of the related
Indemnitee without the prior written consent of the related Indemnitee, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Unless an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, no Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement
or other compromise with respect to any claim which is entitled to be
indemnified under SECTION 7.1 or 7.2 without the prior written consent of the
Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless such
Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified under SECTION 7.1 or 7.2 with
respect to such Claim.

      Upon payment in full of any Claim by the Lessees pursuant to SECTION 7.1
or 7.2 to or on behalf of an Indemnitee, Lessees, without any further action,
shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such Indemnitee may have relating
thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance policies maintained by such
Indemnitee at its own expense), and such Indemnitee shall execute such
instruments of assignment and conveyance, evidence of claims and payment and
such other documents, instruments and agreements as may be reasonably necessary
to preserve any such claims and otherwise cooperate with the Lessees and give
such further assurances as are reasonably necessary or advisable to enable
Lessees vigorously to pursue such claims.

      Any amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant to SECTION 7.1 or 7.2 shall
be paid to such Indemnitee promptly upon, but in no event later than thirty (30)
days after, receipt of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee,
accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for
such indemnity and the computation of the amount so payable.

      If for any reason the indemnification provided for in SECTION 7.1 or 7.2
is unavailable to an Indemnitee or is insufficient to hold an Indemnitee
harmless, then each Lessee agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such Indemnitee as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received
by such Indemnitee on the one hand and by each Lessee on the other hand but also
the relative fault of such Indemnitee as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. It is expressly understood and agreed that the right to
contribution provided for herein shall survive the expiration or termination of
and shall be separate and independent from any other remedy under this Master
Agreement, the Lease or any other Operative Document.

      SECTION 7.4 GENERAL TAX INDEMNITY.

            (a)    TAX INDEMNITY. Except as otherwise provided in this
      SECTION 7.4, each of the Company and each Lessee, jointly and severally,
      shall pay on an After-Tax Basis, and on written demand shall indemnify and
      hold each Tax Indemnitee harmless from and against, any and all fees
      (including, without limitation, documentation, recording, license and
      registration fees), taxes

                                       52

      use, turnover, value-added, property, excise and stamp taxes), levies,
      imposts, duties, charges, assessments or withholdings of any nature
      whatsoever, together with any penalties, fines or interest thereon or
      additions thereto (any of the foregoing being referred to herein as
      "TAXES" and individually as a "TAX" (for the purposes of this SECTION 7.4,
      the definition of "Taxes" includes amounts imposed on, incurred by, or
      asserted against each Tax Indemnitee as the result of any prohibited
      transaction, within the meaning of Section 406 or 407 of ERISA or Section
      4975(c) of the Code, arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby
      or by any other Operative Document)) imposed on or with respect to any Tax
      Indemnitee, any Lessee, the Company, any Leased Property or any portion
      thereof or any Land, or any sublessee or user thereof, by the United
      States or by any state or local government or other taxing authority in
      the United States in connection with or in any way relating to (i) the
      acquisition, financing, mortgaging, construction, preparation,
      installation, inspection, delivery, non-delivery, acceptance, rejection,
      purchase, ownership, possession, rental, lease, sublease, maintenance,
      repair, storage, transfer of title, redelivery, use, operation, condition,
      sale, return or other application or disposition of all or any part of any
      Leased Property or the imposition of any Lien (or incurrence of any
      liability to refund or pay over any amount as a result of any Lien)
      thereon, (ii) Basic Rent or Supplemental Rent or the receipts or earnings
      arising from or received with respect to any Leased Property or any part
      thereof, or any interest therein or any applications or dispositions
      thereof, (iii) any other amount paid or payable pursuant to the Notes or
      any other Operative Documents, (iv) any Leased Property, any Land or any
      part thereof or any interest therein (including, without limitation, all
      assessments payable in respect thereof, including, without limitation, all
      assessments noted on the related Title Policy), (v) all or any of the
      Operative Documents, any other documents contemplated thereby, any
      amendments and supplements thereto, and (vi) otherwise with respect to or
      in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Operative
      Documents.

            (b)    Exclusions from General Tax Indemnity. Section 7.4(a) shall
      not apply to:

                  (i) Taxes on, based on, or measured by or with respect to net
            income of the Lessor, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
            (including, without limitation, minimum Taxes, capital gains Taxes,
            Taxes on or measured by items of tax preference or alternative
            minimum Taxes) other than (A) any such Taxes that are, or are in the
            nature of, sales, use, license, rental or property Taxes, and (B)
            withholding Taxes imposed by the United States or any state in which
            Leased Property is located (i) on payments with respect to the
            Notes, to the extent imposed by reason of a change in Applicable Law
            occurring after the date on which the holder of such Note became the
            holder of such Note or (ii) on Rent, to the extent the net payment
            of Rent after deduction of such withholding Taxes would be less than
            amounts currently payable with respect to the Funded Amounts;

                  (ii) Taxes on, based on, or in the nature of or measured by
            Taxes on doing business, business privilege, franchise, capital,
            capital stock, net worth, or mercantile license or similar taxes
            other than (A) any increase in such Taxes imposed on such Tax
            Indemnitee by any state in which Leased Property is located, net of
            any decrease in such taxes realized by such Tax Indemnitee, to the
            extent that such tax increase would not


                                       53

            have occurred if on each Funding Date the Lessor and the Lenders had
            advanced funds to a Lessee or the Construction Agent in the form of
            loans secured by the Leased Property in an amount equal to the
            Funded Amounts funded on such Funding Date, with debt service for
            such loans equal to the Basic Rent payable on each Payment Date and
            a principal balance at the maturity of such loans in a total amount
            equal to the Funded Amounts at the end of the Lease Term, or (B) any
            Taxes that are or are in the nature of sales, use, rental, license
            or property Taxes relating to any Leased Property;

                  (iii) Taxes that are based on, or measured by, the fees or
            other compensation received by a Person acting as Administrative
            Agent (in its individual capacities) or any Affiliate of any thereof
            for acting as trustee under the Loan Agreement;

                  (iv) Taxes that result from any act, event or omission, or are
            attributable to any period of time, that occurs after the earlier of
            (A) the expiration of the Lease Term with respect to any Leased
            Property and, if such Leased Property is required to be returned to
            the Lessor in accordance with the Lease, such return and (B) the
            discharge in full of the Lessees' obligations to pay the Lease
            Balance, or any amount determined by reference thereto, with respect
            to any Leased Property and all other amounts due under the Lease,
            unless such Taxes relate to acts, events or matters occurring prior
            to the earlier of such times or are imposed on or with respect to
            any payments due under the Operative Documents after such expiration
            or discharge;

                  (v) Taxes imposed on a Tax Indemnitee that result from any
            voluntary sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition or
            bankruptcy by such Tax Indemnitee or any related Tax Indemnitee of
            any interest in any Leased Property or any part thereof, or any
            interest therein or any interest or obligation arising under the
            Operative Documents, or from any sale, assignment, transfer or other
            disposition of any interest in such Tax Indemnitee or any related
            Tax Indemnitee, it being understood that each of the following shall
            not be considered a voluntary sale: (A) any substitution,
            replacement or removal of any of the Leased Property by any Lessee,
            (B) any sale or transfer resulting from the exercise by any Lessee
            of any termination option, any purchase option or sale option, (C)
            any sale or transfer while an Event of Default shall have occurred
            and be continuing under the Lease, and (D) any sale or transfer
            resulting from the Lessors exercise of remedies under the Lease;

                  (vi) any Tax which is being contested in accordance with the
            provisions of SECTION 7.4(c), during the pendency of such contest;

                  (vii) any Tax that is imposed on a Tax Indemnitee as a result
            of such Tax Indemnitees gross negligence or willful misconduct
            (other than gross negligence or willful misconduct imputed to such
            Tax Indemnitee solely by reason of its interest in any Leased
            Property);

                                       54
<PAGE>
                  (viii) any Tax that results from a Tax Indemnitee engaging,
            with respect to any Leased Property, in transactions other than
            those permitted by the Operative Documents;

                  (ix) to the extent any interest, penalties or additions to tax
            result in whole or in part from the failure of a Tax Indemnitee to
            file a return or pay a Tax that it is required to file or pay in a
            proper and timely manner, unless such failure (A) results from the
            transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents in
            circumstances where Lessee did not give timely notice to such Tax
            Indemnitee of such filing or payment requirement that would have
            permitted a proper and timely filing of such return or payment of
            such Tax, as the case may be, or (B) results from the failure of a
            Lessee to supply information necessary for the proper and timely
            filing of such return or payment of such Tax, as the case may be,
            that was not in the possession of such Tax Indemnitee; and

                  (x) as to Lessor, any Tax that results from the breach by the
            Lessor of its representation and warranty made in SECTION 4.2(g) or
            as to any Lender the breach of such Lender of its representation and
            warranty made in SECTION 4.3(b).

            (c)    CONTESTS. If any claim shall be made against any Tax
      Indemnitee or if any proceeding shall be commenced against any Tax
      Indemnitee (including a written notice of such proceeding) for any Taxes
      as to which Lessees may have an indemnity obligation pursuant to SECTION
      7.4, or if any Tax Indemnitee shall determine that any Taxes as to which
      the Lessees may have an indemnity obligation pursuant to SECTION 7.4 may
      be payable, such Tax Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Company. The
      Company shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in, and, to the
      extent that the Company desires to, assume and control the defense
      thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall have acknowledged in
      writing its obligation to fully indemnify such Tax Indemnitee in respect
      of such action, suit or proceeding if the contest is unsuccessful; and,
      PROVIDED FURTHER, that the Company shall not be entitled to assume and
      control the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding (but the Tax
      Indemnitee shall then contest, at the sole cost and expense of the
      Company, on behalf of the Company with representatives reasonably
      satisfactory to the Company) if and to the extent that, (A) in the
      reasonable opinion of such Tax Indemnitee, such action, suit or proceeding
      involves any meaningful risk of imposition of criminal liability or any
      material risk of civil liability on such Tax Indemnitee in excess of
      $5,000,000,(B) such proceeding involves Claims not fully indemnified by
      the Lessees which the Company and the Tax Indemnitee have been unable to
      sever from the indemnified claim(s), (C) an Event of Default has occurred
      and is continuing, (D) such action, suit or proceeding involves matters
      which extend beyond or are unrelated to the Transaction and if determined
      adversely could be materially detrimental to the interests of such Tax
      Indemnitee notwithstanding indemnification by Lessees or (E) such action,
      suit or proceeding involves the federal or any state income tax liability
      of the Tax Indemnitee. With respect to any contests controlled by a Tax
      Indemnitee, (i) if such contest relates to the federal or any state income
      tax liability of such Tax Indemnitee, such Tax Indemnitee shall be
      required to conduct such contest only if the Company shall have provided
      to such Tax Indemnitee an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by
      the Tax Indemnitee and reasonably satisfactory to the Company stating that
      a reasonable basis exists to contest such claim or (ii) in the case of an
      appeal of an adverse

                                       55
<PAGE>
      determination of any contest relating to any Taxes, an opinion of such
      counsel to the effect that such appeal is more likely than not to be
      successful, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, such Tax Indemnitee shall in no event be
      required to appeal an adverse determination to the United States Supreme
      Court. The Tax Indemnitee may participate in a reasonable manner at its
      own expense and with its own counsel in any proceeding conducted by the
      Company in accordance with the foregoing.

            Each Tax Indemnitee shall at Lessees expense supply the Company with
      such information and documents in such Tax Indemnitees possession
      reasonably requested by the Company as are necessary or advisable for the
      Company to participate in any action, suit or proceeding to the extent
      permitted by this SECTION 7.4. Unless an Event of Default shall have
      occurred and be continuing, no Tax Indemnitee shall enter into any
      settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim which is entitled
      to be indemnified under this SECTION 7.4 without the prior written consent
      of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless
      such Tax Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified under this SECTION
      7.4 with respect to such Claim.

            Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (a) a Tax
      Indemnitee will not be required to contest (and the Company shall not be
      permitted to contest except on its own behalf if it is subject thereto) a
      claim with respect to the imposition of any Tax if such Tax Indemnitee
      shall waive its right to indemnification under this SECTION 7.4 with
      respect to such claim (and any related claim with respect to other taxable
      years the contest of which is precluded as a result of such waiver) and
      (b) no Tax Indemnitee shall be required to contest any claim if the
      subject matter thereof shall be of a continuing nature and shall have
      previously been decided adversely, unless there has been a change in law
      which in the opinion of Tax Indemnitees counsel creates substantial
      authority for the success of such contest. Each Tax Indemnitee and the
      Company shall consult in good faith with each other regarding the conduct
      of such contest controlled by either.

            (d)    REIMBURSEMENT FOR TAX SAVINGS. If (x) a Tax Indemnitee shall
      obtain a credit or refund of any Taxes paid by the Company or any Lessee
      pursuant to this SECTION 7.4 or (y) by reason of the incurrence or
      imposition of any Tax for which a Tax Indemnitee is indemnified hereunder
      or any payment made to or for the account of such Tax Indemnitee by the
      Company or any Lessee pursuant to this SECTION 7.4, such Tax Indemnitee at
      any time realizes a reduction in any Taxes for which Lessees are not
      required to indemnify such Tax Indemnitee pursuant to this SECTION 7.4,
      which reduction in Taxes was not taken into account in computing such
      payment by Lessee to or for the account of such Tax Indemnitee, then such
      Tax Indemnitee shall promptly pay to the Company (xx) the amount of such
      credit or refund, together with the amount of any interest received by
      such Tax Indemnitee on account of such credit or refund or (yy) an amount
      equal to such reduction in Taxes, as the case may be; PROVIDED that no
      such payment shall be made so long as an Event of Default shall have
      occurred and be continuing and, PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the amount payable
      to the Company by any Tax Indemnitee pursuant to this SECTION 7.4(D) shall
      not at any time exceed the aggregate amount of all indemnity payments made
      by the Company and the Lessees under this SECTION 7.4 to such Tax
      Indemnitee with respect to the Taxes which gave rise to the credit or
      refund or with respect to the Tax which gave rise to the


                                       56
<PAGE>
      reduction in Taxes less the amount of all prior payments made to the
      Company by such Tax Indemnitee under this SECTION 7.4(D). Each Tax
      Indemnitee agrees to act in good faith to claim such refunds and other
      available Tax benefits, and take such other actions as may be reasonable
      to minimize any payment due from Lessees pursuant to this SECTION 7.4. The
      disallowance or reduction of any credit, refund or other tax savings with
      respect to which a Tax Indemnitee has made a payment to the Company under
      this SECTION 7.4(D) shall be treated as a Tax for which Lessees are
      obligated to indemnify such Tax Indemnitee hereunder without regard to
      SECTION 7.4(B) hereof.

            (e)    PAYMENTS. Any Tax indemnifiable under this SECTION 7.4 shall
      be paid by Lessees directly when due to the applicable taxing authority if
      direct payment is practicable and permitted. If direct payment to the
      applicable taxing authority is not permitted or is otherwise not made, any
      amount payable to a Tax Indemnitee pursuant to SECTION 7.4 shall be paid
      within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written demand therefor from
      such Tax Indemnitee accompanied by a written statement describing in
      reasonable detail the amount so payable, but not before the date that the
      relevant Taxes are due. Any payments made pursuant to SECTION 7.4 shall be
      made to the Tax Indemnitee entitled thereto or the Company, as the case
      may be, in immediately available funds at such bank or to such account as
      specified by the payee in written directions to the payor, or, if no such
      direction shall have been given, by check of the payor payable to the
      order of the payee by certified mail, postage prepaid at its address as
      set forth in this Master Agreement. Upon the request of any Tax Indemnitee
      with respect to a Tax that Lessees are required to pay, the Company shall
      furnish to such Tax Indemnitee the original or a certified copy of a
      receipt for Lessees payment of such Tax or such other evidence of payment
      as is reasonably acceptable to such Tax Indemnitee.

            (f)    REPORTS. If any Lessee knows of any report, return or
      statement required to be filed with respect to any Taxes that are subject
      to indemnification under this SECTION 7.4, such Lessee shall, if such
      Lessee is permitted by Applicable Law, timely file such report, return or
      statement (and, to the extent permitted by law, show ownership of the
      applicable Leased Property in such Lessee); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if
      such Lessee is not permitted by Applicable Law or does not have access to
      the information required to file any such report, return or statement,
      such Lessee will promptly so notify the appropriate Tax Indemnitee, in
      which case Tax Indemnitee will file such report. In any case in which the
      Tax Indemnitee will file any such report, return or statement, such Lessee
      shall, upon written request of such Tax Indemnitee, prepare such report,
      return or statement for filing by such Tax Indemnitee or, if such Tax
      Indemnitee so requests, provide such Tax Indemnitee with such information
      as is reasonably available to such Lessee.

            (g)    VERIFICATION. At the Company's request, the amount of any
      indemnity payment by Lessee or any payment by a Tax Indemnitee to the
      Company pursuant to this SECTION 7.4 shall be verified and certified by an
      independent public accounting firm selected by the Company and reasonably
      acceptable to the Tax Indemnitee. Unless such verification shall disclose
      an error in the Companys favor of 5% or more of the related indemnity
      payment, the costs of such verification shall be borne by the Company. In
      no event shall the Company have the right to

                                       57
<PAGE>
      review the Tax Indemnitee's tax returns or receive any other confidential
      information from the Tax Indemnitee in connection with such verification.
      The Tax Indemnitee agrees to cooperate with the independent public
      accounting firm performing the verification and to supply such firm with
      all information reasonably necessary to permit it to accomplish such
      verification, PROVIDED that the information provided to such firm by such
      Tax Indemnitee shall be for its confidential use. The parties agree that
      the sole responsibility of the independent public accounting firm shall be
      to verify the amount of a payment pursuant to this Master Agreement and
      that matters of interpretation of this Master Agreement are not within the
      scope of the independent accounting firms responsibilities.

            SECTION 7.5 Increased Costs, etc.

            (a)    SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC.

                  (i) The Company agrees that, in addition to (and without
            limitation of) any right of set-off, banker's lien or counterclaim a
            Funding Party may otherwise have, each Funding Party shall be
            entitled, at its option, to offset balances held by it for account
            of the Company at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other
            currency, against any principal of or interest on any of such
            Funding Party's Funded Amounts or any other amount payable to such
            Funding Party hereunder, that is not paid when due (regardless of
            whether such balances are then due to the Company), in which case it
            shall promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent
            thereof, PROVIDED that such Funding Party's failure to give such
            notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

                  (ii) If any Funding Party shall obtain from any Obligor
            payment of any principal of or interest on any Funded Amount owing
            to it or payment of any other amount under this Master Agreement or
            any other Operative Document through the exercise of any right of
            set-off, bankers lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise
            (other than from the Administrative Agent as provided herein or in
            any other Operative Document), and, as a result of such payment,
            such Funding Party shall have received a greater percentage of the
            principal of or interest on such Funded Amounts or such other
            amounts then due hereunder or thereunder by such Obligor to such
            Funding Party than the percentage received by any other Funding
            Party, it shall promptly purchase from such other Funding Parties
            participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such
            Funding Party, direct interests in) Funded Amounts or such other
            amounts, respectively, owing to such other Funding Parties (or in
            interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make
            such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to
            the end that all the Funding Parties shall share the benefit of such
            excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such
            Funding Party in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro
            rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of and/or interest on
            the Funded Amounts or such other amounts, respectively, owing to
            each of the Funding Parties. To such end all the Funding Parties
            shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale
            of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or
            must otherwise be restored.

                                       58
<PAGE>
                  (iii) The Company agrees that any Funding Party so purchasing
            such a participation (or direct interest) may exercise all rights of
            set-off, banker's lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect
            to such participation as fully as if such Funding Party were a
            direct holder of Funded Amounts or other amounts (as the case may
            be) owing to such Funding Party in the amount of such participation.

                  (iv) Nothing contained herein shall require any Funding Party
            to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Funding
            Party to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such
            right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of any
            Obligor. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other
            similar law, any Funding Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a
            set-off to which this SECTION 7.5(A) applies, such Funding Party
            shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of
            such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the
            Funding Parties entitled under this SECTION 7.5(A) to share in the
            benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

            (b)    Yield Protection, Etc.

                  (i) ADDITIONAL COSTS.

                              1) The Company shall pay directly to each Funding
                        Party from time to time such amounts as such Funding
                        Party may determine to be necessary to compensate such
                        Funding Party for any costs actually incurred by such
                        Funding Party that such Funding Party determines are
                        attributable to its making or maintaining of any
                        Eurodollar Advances or its obligation to make any
                        Eurodollar Advances under the Operative Documents, or

                        Party under the Operative Documents in respect of any of
                        such Advances or such obligation (such increases in
                        costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein
                        called "ADDITIONAL COSTS"), resulting from any
                        Regulatory Change that:

                                    (A) shall subject any Funding Party (or its
                              Applicable Lending Office for any of such
                              Advances) to any tax, duty or other charge in
                              respect of such Funded Amounts or changes the
                              basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such
                              Funding Party under the Operative Documents in
                              respect of any of such Funded Amounts (excluding
                              (A) franchise taxes imposed on it or (B) changes
                              in the rate of tax on the overall net income of
                              such Funding Party or of such Applicable Lending

                              such Funding Party has its principal office or
                              such Applicable Lending Office); or

                                    (B) imposes or modifies any reserve, special
                              deposit or similar requirements (other than, in
                              the case of any Funding Party for any period as to
                              which the Company is required to pay any amount
                              under PARAGRAPH 5) below, the reserves and
                              "Eurocurrency liabilities" under Regulation D
                              referred to therein) relating to any extensions of
                              credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or
                              other liabilities of, such Funding Party
                              (including, without limitation, any of such
                              Advances or any deposits referred to in the
                              definition of "Eurodollar Rate") or any commitment
                              of such Funding Party (including, without
                              limitation, the Commitments of such Funding Party
                              hereunder); or

                                    (C) imposes any other condition affecting
                              the Operative Documents (or any of such extensions
                              of credit or liabilities) or its Commitments.

      If any Funding Party requests compensation from the Company under this
SECTION 7.5(B), the Company may, by notice to such Funding Party (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Funding Party
thereafter to make or continue Eurodollar Advances, or to convert Base Rate
Advances into Eurodollar Advances, until the Regulatory Change giving rise to
such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of SECTION
7.5(E) hereof shall be applicable), PROVIDED that such suspension shall not
affect the right of such Funding Party to receive the compensation so requested.

                              2) Without limiting the effect of the other
                        provisions of this SECTION 7.5(B), in the event that, by
                        reason of any Regulatory Change, any Funding Party
                        either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured
                        by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a
                        category of deposits or other liabilities of such
                        Funding Party that includes deposits by reference to
                        which the interest rate on Eurodollar Advances is
                        determined as provided in this Master Agreement or a
                        category of extensions of credit or other assets of such
                        Funding Party that includes Eurodollar Advances or (ii)
                        becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a
                        category of liabilities or assets that it may hold,
                        then, if such Funding Party so elects by notice to the
                        Company (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the
                        obligation of such Funding Party to make or continue, or
                        to convert Base Rate Advances into, Eurodollar Advances
                        hereunder shall be suspended until such Regulatory
                        Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the
                        provisions of SECTION 7.5(E) hereof shall be
                        applicable).

                              3) Without limiting the effect of the foregoing
                        provisions of this SECTION 7.5(B) (but without
                        duplication), the Company shall pay directly to each
                        Funding Party from time to time on request such amounts
                        as such Funding Party may determine to be necessary to
                        compensate such

                        Funding Party (or, without duplication, the bank holding
                        company of which such Funding Party is a subsidiary) for
                        any costs actually incurred by such Funding Party that
                        it determines are attributable to the maintenance by
                        such Funding Party (or any Applicable Lending Office or
                        such bank holding company), pursuant to any law or
                        regulation or any interpretation, directive or request
                        (whether or not having the force of law and whether or
                        not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) of
                        any court or governmental or monetary authority (i)
                        following any Regulatory Change or (ii) implementing any
                        risk-based capital guideline or other requirement
                        (whether or not having the force of law and whether or
                        not the failure to comply therewith would be unlawful)

                        the national level the Basle Accord (including, without
                        limitation, the Final Risk-Based Capital Guidelines of

                        C.F.R. Part 3, Appendix A)), of capital in respect of
                        its Commitments or Advances (such compensation to
                        include, without limitation, an amount equal to any
                        reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of
                        such Funding Party (or any Applicable Lending Office or
                        such bank holding company) to a level below that which
                        such Funding Party (or any Applicable Lending Office or
                        such bank holding company) could have achieved but for
                        such law, regulation, interpretation, directive or
                        request). For purposes of this SECTION 7.5(B) and
                        SECTION 7.5(F) hereof, "BASLE ACCORD" shall mean the
                        proposals for risk-based capital framework described by
                        the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations and
                        Supervisory Practices in its paper entitled
                        "International Convergence of Capital Measurement and
                        Capital Standards" dated July 1988, as amended, modified
                        and supplemented and in effect from time to time or any
                        replacement thereof.

                              4) Each Funding Party shall notify the Company of
                        any event occurring after the date of this Master
                        Agreement entitling such Funding Party to compensation
                        under PARAGRAPH 1) or 3) of this SECTION 7.5(B) as
                        promptly as practicable, but in any event within 45
                        days, after such Funding Party obtains actual knowledge
                        thereof; PROVIDED that (i) if any Funding Party fails to
                        give such notice within 45 days after it obtains actual
                        knowledge of such an event, such Funding Party shall,
                        with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this
                        SECTION 7.5(B) in respect of any costs resulting from
                        such event, only be entitled to payment under this
                        SECTION 7.5(B) for costs incurred from and after the
                        date 45 days prior to the date that such Funding Party
                        does give such notice and (ii) each Funding Party will
                        designate a different Applicable Lending Office for the

                                       61
<PAGE>
                        Funded Amounts of such Funding Party affected by such
                        event if such designation will avoid the need for, or
                        reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in
                        the sole opinion of such Funding Party, be
                        disadvantageous to such Funding Party, except that such
                        Funding Party shall have no obligation to designate an
                        Applicable Lending Office located in the United States
                        of America. Each Funding Party will furnish to the
                        Company a certificate setting forth the basis and amount
                        of each request by such Funding Party for compensation
                        under PARAGRAPH 1) or 3) of this SECTION 7.5(B)
                        Determinations and allocations by any Funding Party for
                        purposes of this SECTION 7.5(B) of the effect of any
                        Regulatory Change pursuant to PARAGRAPH 1) or 3) of this
                        SECTION 7.5(B), or of the effect of capital maintained
                        pursuant to PARAGRAPH 3) of this SECTION 7.5(B), on its
                        costs or rate of return of maintaining Funded Amounts or
                        its obligation to make Funded Amounts, or on amounts
                        receivable by it in respect of Funded Amounts, and of
                        the amounts required to compensate such Funding Party
                        under this SECTION 7.7(B), shall be conclusive, absent
                        demonstrable error, PROVIDED that such determinations
                        and allocations are made and attributed on a reasonable
                        basis.

                              5) Without limiting the effect of the foregoing,
                        the Company shall pay to each Funding Party on the last
                        day of each Rent Period so long as such Funding Party is
                        maintaining reserves against "Eurocurrency liabilities"
                        under Regulation D (or, unless the provisions of
                        PARAGRAPH 2) above are applicable, so long as such
                        Funding Party is, by reason of any Regulatory Change,
                        maintaining reserves against any other category of
                        liabilities which includes deposits by reference to
                        which the interest rate on Eurodollar Advances is
                        determined as provided in the Operative Documents or
                        against any category of extensions of credit or other
                        assets of such Funding Party (which includes any
                        Eurodollar Advances) an additional amount (determined by
                        such Funding Party and notified to the Company through
                        the Administrative Agent) equal to the product of the
                        following for each Eurodollar Advance for each day
                        during such Rent Period:

                                    (A) the principal amount of such Eurodollar
                              Advance outstanding on such day; and

                                    (B) the remainder of (x) the fraction the
                              numerator of which is the rate (expressed as a
                              decimal) at which interest accrues on such
                              Eurodollar Advance for such Rent Period as
                              provided in this Master Agreement or the Loan
                              Agreement (less the Applicable Margin) and the
                              denominator of which is one MINUS the effective
                              rate (expressed as a decimal) at which such
                              reserve requirements

                                       62
<PAGE>
                              are imposed on such Funding Party on such day
                              MINUS (y) such numerator; and

                                    (C) 1/360.

                              6) Notwithstanding anything in this SECTION 7.7(B)
                        to the contrary, to the extent that any Funding Party
                        does not charge all of its customers who are similarly
                        situated to the Company in respect of any Additional
                        Costs or other cost or compensation referred to this
                        SECTION 7.7(B), such Funding Party shall not charge the
                        Company for such Additional Cost or other cost or
                        compensation.

            (c)    LIMITATION ON TYPES OF ADVANCES. Anything herein to the
      contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any
      Eurodollar Rate for any Rent Period:

                  (i) the Administrative Agent determines, which determination
            shall be conclusive, that quotations of interest rates for the
            relevant deposits referred to in the definition of "Eurodollar Rate"
            are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant
            maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for
            Eurodollar Advances as provided herein; or

                  (ii) if the Required Funding Parties determine, which
            determination shall be conclusive, and notify (or notifies, as the
            case may be) the Administrative Agent that the relevant rates of
            interest referred to in the definition of "Eurodollar Rate" upon the
            basis of which the rate of interest for Eurodollar Advances for such
            Rent Period is to be determined do not adequately cover the cost to
            such Funding Parties of making or maintaining Eurodollar Advances
            for such Rent Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Company and each Funding Party
prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the
Funding Parties shall be under no obligation to make additional Eurodollar
Advances, to continue Eurodollar Advances or to convert Base Rate Advances into
Eurodollar Advances, and the Company shall, on the last day(s) of the then
current Rent Period(s) for the outstanding Eurodollar Advances, either prepay
such Advances or convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances in accordance
with SECTION 2.08 hereof.

            (d)    ILLEGALITY. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
      Master Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Funding
      Party or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or
      maintain Eurodollar Advances hereunder, then such Funding Party shall
      promptly notify the Company thereof (with a copy to the Administrative
      Agent) and such Funding Party's obligation to make or continue, or to
      convert Base Rate Advances into, Eurodollar Advances shall be suspended
      until such time as such Funding Party may again make and maintain
      Eurodollar Advances (in which case the provisions of SECTION 7.5(E) hereof
      shall be applicable).

                                       63

            (e)    TREATMENT OF EURODOLLAR ADVANCES. If the obligation of any
      Funding Party to make Eurodollar Advances or to continue, or to convert
      Base Rate Advances into, Eurodollar Advances shall be suspended pursuant
      to SECTION 7.5(B) or 7.5(D) hereof, such Funding Party's Eurodollar
      Advances shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Advances on the
      last day(s) of the then current Rent Period(s) for Eurodollar Advances
      (or, in the case of a conversion required by SECTION 7.5(B) or 7.5(D)
      hereof, on such earlier date as such Funding Party may specify to the
      Company with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until
      such Funding Party gives notice as provided below that the circumstances
      specified in SECTION 7.5(B) or 7.5(D) hereof that gave rise to such
      conversion no longer exist:

                  (i) to the extent that such Funding Party's Eurodollar
            Advances have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of
            principal that would otherwise be applied to such Funding Party's
            Eurodollar Advances shall be applied instead to its Base Rate
            Advances; and

                  (ii) all Advances that would otherwise be made or continued by
            such Funding Party as Eurodollar Advances shall be made or continued
            instead as Base Rate Advances, and all Advances of such Funding
            Party that would otherwise be converted into Eurodollar Advances
            shall be converted instead into (or shall remain as) Base Rate
            Advances.

      If such Funding Party gives notice to the Company with a copy to the
Administrative Agent that the circumstances specified in SECTION 7.5(B) or
7.5(D) hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Funding Party's
Eurodollar Advances pursuant to this SECTION 7.5(E) no longer exist (which such
Funding Party agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at
a time when Eurodollar Advances made by other Funding Parties are outstanding,
such Funding Party's Base Rate Advances shall be automatically converted, on the
first day(s) of the next succeeding Rent Period(s) for such outstanding
Eurodollar Advances, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect
thereto, all Advances held by the Funding Parties holding Eurodollar Advances
and by such Funding Party are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, types and
Rent Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

            (f)    COMPENSATION. The Company shall pay to the Administrative
      Agent for account of each Funding Party, upon the request of such Funding
      Party through the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be
      sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Funding Party) to compensate
      it for any loss, cost or expense actually incurred that such Funding Party
      determines is attributable to:

                  (i) any payment, mandatory or optional prepayment or
            Conversion of a Eurodollar Advance made by such Funding Party for
            any reason on a date other than the last day of the Rent Period for
            such Loan; or

                                       64
<PAGE>
                  (ii) any failure by the Company for any reason (including,
            without limitation, the failure of any of the conditions precedent
            specified in SECTION 3 hereof to be satisfied) to draw a Eurodollar
            Advance from such Funding Party on the date for such borrowing
            specified in the relevant notice of borrowing given pursuant to
            SECTION 2.02 hereof.

            Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, such
      compensation shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i)
      the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on the principal
      amount so paid, prepaid, converted or not funded (other than the portion
      thereof consisting of the Applicable Margin) for the period from the date
      of such payment, prepayment, conversion or failure to fund to the last day
      of the then current Rent Period for such Advance (or, in the case of a
      failure to fund, the Rent Period for such Advance that would have
      commenced on the date specified for such Funding) at the applicable rate
      of interest for such Advance provided for herein or in the Loan Agreement
      over (ii) the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on such
      principal amount at a rate per annum equal to the interest component of
      the amount such Funding Party would have bid in the London interbank
      market for Dollar deposits of leading banks in amounts comparable to such
      principal amount and with maturities comparable to such period (as
      reasonably determined by such Funding Party). Notwithstanding anything to
      the contrary set forth herein or in any of the other Operative Documents,
      neither any Lessee, any Guarantor or the Company shall have any obligation
      to pay or reimburse any other Person for breakage costs payable under this
      Master Agreement or any other Operative Document which arise solely by
      reason of acceleration of the maturity of Lessors obligations under the
      Loan Agreement at a time when no Event of Default exists.

            (g)    SUBSTITUTION OF FUNDING PARTIES. In the event that the
      Company becomes obligated to pay additional amounts to any Funding Party
      pursuant to SECTION 7.5(b) hereof, then (unless such Funding Party has
      theretofore taken steps to remove or cure, and has removed or cured, the
      conditions creating the cause for such obligation to pay such additional
      amounts), then the Company may, so long as no Default shall be continuing,
      within 60 days after the demand by such Funding Party for such additional
      amounts, designate another bank which is acceptable to the Administrative
      Agent and the Required Funding Parties (such other bank being herein
      called a "REPLACEMENT FUNDING PARTY") to purchase all of the Funded
      Amounts of such Funding Party and all of such Funding Party's rights and
      obligations hereunder (without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to,
      such Funding Party) for a purchase price equal to the outstanding
      principal amount of such Funding Party's Funded Amount plus any accrued
      but unpaid interest thereon and any accrued but unpaid fees in respect of
      such Funding Party's Commitments and any other amounts then payable to
      such Funding Party under the Operative Documents, and to assume all of the
      obligations of such Funding Party hereunder (except for such rights as
      survive the repayment of the Advances) and, upon such purchase such
      Funding Party shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights
      hereunder (except for those that survive repayment of the Advances) and
      shall be released from all of its obligations under the Operative
      Documents, and the Replacement Funding Party shall succeed to the rights
      and obligations of such Funding Party under the Operative Documents.

      SECTION 7.6. END OF TERM INDEMNITY. In the event that at the end of the
Lease Term for the Leased Properties: (i) the related Lessee elects the option
set forth in Section 14.6 of the Lease, and (ii) after the Lessor receives the
sales proceeds from the Leased Properties under Section 14.6 or 14.7 of the
Lease, together with Lessees' payment of the Recourse Deficiency Amount, the
Lessor shall not have received the entire Lease Balance, then, within 90 days
after the end of the Lease Term, the Lessor or the Administrative Agent may
obtain, at Lessees' sole cost and expense, a report from the Appraiser (or, if
the Appraiser is not available, another appraiser reasonably satisfactory to the
Lessor or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and approved by the
Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) in form and substance
satisfactory to the Lessor and the Administrative Agent (the "REPORT") to
establish the reason for any decline in value of the Leased Properties from the
Lease Balance. Lessees, jointly and severally, shall promptly reimburse the
Lessor for the amount equal to such decline in value to the extent that the
Report indicates that such decline was due to

            (w)    extraordinary use, failure to maintain, to repair, to
      restore, to rebuild or to replace, failure to comply with all Applicable
      Laws, failure to use, good workmanship, method of installation or removal
      or maintenance, repair, rebuilding or replacement, or any other cause or
      condition within the power of a Lessee to control or effect resulting in
      the Building failing to be of the type and quality contemplated by the
      Appraisal (excepting in each case ordinary wear and tear), or

            (x)    any Alteration made to, or any rebuilding of, any Leased
      Property or any part thereof by any Lessee, or

            (y)    any restoration or rebuilding carried out by any Lessee or
      any condemnation of any portion of any Leased Property pursuant to Article
      X of the Lease, or

            (z)    any use of any Leased Property or any part thereof by any
      Lessee other than as permitted by the Lease, or any act or omission
      constituting a breach of any requirement, condition, restriction or
      limitation set forth in the related Deed or the related Purchase
      Agreement.

      SECTION 7.7. GUARANTEE.

            (a)    THE GUARANTEE. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and
      severally guarantee to each Funding Party and the Administrative Agent and
      their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when
      due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the
      Obligations and all other amounts from time to time owing to the Funding
      Parties hereunder or under the other Operative Documents, in each case
      strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being
      herein collectively called the "GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS"). The Subsidiary
      Guarantors hereby further jointly and severally agree that if the Company
      shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by
      acceleration or otherwise) any of the GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS, the
      Subsidiary Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any


                                       66
<PAGE>
      demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time
      of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will
      be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by
      acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension
      or renewal.

            (b)    OBLIGATIONS UNCONDITIONAL. The obligations of the Subsidiary
      Guarantors under SECTION 7.7(A) hereof are absolute and unconditional,
      joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity,
      regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Company under this
      Master Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein
      or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other
      guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to
      the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other
      circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or
      equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the
      intent of this SECTION 7.7(B) that the obligations of the Subsidiary
      Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and
      several, under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality
      of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of
      the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary
      Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute and unconditional as
      described above:

                  (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the
            Subsidiary Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance
            with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such
            performance or compliance shall be waived;

                  (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of
            this Master Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred
            to herein shall be done or omitted;

                  (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall
            be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be
            modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under
            this Master Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred
            to herein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the
            Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or
            exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or

                  (iv) any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of,
            the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for
            any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected.

      The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment,
demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that
the Administrative Agent, the Lessor or any Lender exhaust any right, power or
remedy or proceed against the Company under any Operative Document or any other
agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other
Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed
Obligations.

<PAGE>
            (c)    REINSTATEMENT. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors
      under this SECTION 7.7 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the
      extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Company in
      respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise
      restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a
      result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise and
      the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they will
      indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lessor and each Lender on demand
      for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees
      of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in
      connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs
      and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such
      payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment
      under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

            (d)    SUBROGATION. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and
      severally agree that until the payment and satisfaction in full of all
      Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the
      Commitments of the Funding Parties under this Master Agreement they shall
      not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by
      them of their guarantee in SECTION 7.7(A) hereof, whether by subrogation
      or otherwise, against the Company or any other guarantor of any of the
      Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed
      Obligations.

            (e)    REMEDIES. The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally
      agree that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Funding Parties,
      the obligations of the Lessee under the Lease may be declared to be
      forthwith due and payable as provided in Article XIII of the Lease (and
      shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the
      circumstances provided in Article XIII) for purposes of SECTION 7.7(A)
      hereof notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition
      preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming
      automatically due and payable) as against the Company or any Lessee and
      that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed
      to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether
      or not due and payable by the Company) shall forthwith become due and
      payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of said SECTION 7.7(A).

            (f)    INSTRUMENT FOR THE PAYMENT OF MONEY. Each Guarantor hereby
      acknowledges that the guarantee in this SECTION 7.7 constitutes an
      instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any
      Lender, the Lessor or the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the
      event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due
      hereunder, shall have the right to bring motion-action under New York CPLR
      Section 3213.

            (g)    CONTINUING GUARANTEE. The guarantee in this SECTION 7.7 a
      continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations
      whenever arising.

            (h)   RIGHTS OF CONTRIBUTION. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby
      agree, as between themselves, that if any Subsidiary Guarantor shall
      become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the
      payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor of any Guaranteed

                                       68
<PAGE>
      Obligations, each other Subsidiary Guarantor shall, on demand of such
      Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such
      Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Subsidiary Guarantor's
      Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without
      reference to the Properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding
      Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below) in respect of such
      Guaranteed Obligations. The payment obligation of a Subsidiary Guarantor
      to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this SECTION 7.7(H) shall be
      subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full
      of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions
      of this SECTION 7.7 and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise
      any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and
      satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.

      For purposes of this SECTION 7.7(H), (i) "EXCESS FUNDING GUARANTOR" shall
mean, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Subsidiary Guarantor that has
paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations,
(ii) "EXCESS PAYMENT" shall mean, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the
amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of
such Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) "PRO RATA SHARE" shall mean, for any
Subsidiary Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by
which the aggregate present fair saleable value of all Properties of such
Subsidiary Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock of any other Subsidiary
Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such
Subsidiary Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and
unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Subsidiary
Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Subsidiary Guarantor that
have been Guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which
the aggregate fair saleable value of all Properties of the Company and all of
the Subsidiary Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities
(including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but
excluding the obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors
hereunder) of the Company and all of the Subsidiary Guarantors, all as of the
Initial Closing Date. If any Subsidiary becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder
subsequent to the Initial Closing Date, then for purposes of this SECTION 7.7(H)
such subsequent Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed to have been a Subsidiary
Guarantor as of the Initial Closing Date and the aggregate present fair saleable
value of the Properties, and the amount of the debts and liabilities, of such
Subsidiary Guarantor as of the Initial Closing Date shall be deemed to be equal
to such value and amount on the date such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes a
Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

            (i) GENERAL LIMITATION ON GUARANTEE OBLIGATIONS. In any action or
proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state or Federal
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of
creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under
SECTION 7.7(A) hereof would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of
SECTION 7.7(H) hereof, be held or determined to be void, invalid or
unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account
of the amount of its liability under said SECTION 7.7(A), then, notwithstanding
any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall,
without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Lender, the
Administrative Agent or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced
to the highest

                                       69
<PAGE>
amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other
creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without

      SECTION 8.10 LIABILITIES OF THE FUNDING PARTIES. No Funding Party shall
have any obligation to any other Funding Party or to the Company or any Lessee
with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents except

therewith, and no Funding Party shall be liable for performance by any other
party hereto of such other partys obligations under the Operative Documents
except as otherwise so set forth. No Lender shall have any obligation or duty to

      SECTION 8.11 SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS. Each party hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally:

                  (i) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or
            proceeding relating to this Master Agreement or any other Operative
            Document, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in
            respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the
            Courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan,
            the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District
            of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

                  (ii) consents that any such action or proceedings may be
            brought to such courts, and waives any objection that it may now or
            hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any
            court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an
            inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

                  (iii) agrees that service of process in any such action or
            proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered
            or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail),
            postage prepaid, to such party at its address set forth in SCHEDULE
            8.2 or at such other address of which the other parties hereto shall
            have been notified pursuant to SECTION 8.2; and

                  (iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to
            effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law.

      SECTION 8.12 LIABILITIES OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; REFERENCES. The
Administrative Agent shall have no duty, liability or obligation to any party to
this Master Agreement with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby
except those duties, liabilities or obligations

                                       73
<PAGE>
expressly set forth in this Master Agreement or the Loan Agreement, and any such
duty, liability or obligations of the Administrative Agent shall be as expressly
limited by this Master Agreement or the Loan Agreement, as the case may be. All
parties to this Master Agreement acknowledge that the Administrative Agent is
not, and will not be, performing any due diligence with respect to documents and
information received pursuant to this Master Agreement or any other Operative
Agreement including, without limitation, any Environmental Audit, Title Policy
or survey. The acceptance by the Administrative Agent of any such document or
information shall not constitute a waiver by any Funding Party of any
representation or warranty of the Company or any Lessee even if such document or
information indicates that any such representation or warranty is untrue. Each
reference to the "SYNDICATION AGENT" in the Operative Documents, other than this
Master Agreement, shall be deemed to be a reference to the Administrative Agent.

                                       74

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Master Agreement

delivery of the first financial statements under Section 5.1(a) of the Master
Agreement shall mean the audited financial statements as at December 31, 1999).
All calculations made for the purposes of determining compliance with the Master
Agreement shall (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) be made by
application of generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis
consistent with those used in the preparation of the latest annual or quarterly
financial statements furnished to the Administrative Agent or the Operative
Parties pursuant to Section 5.1(a) of the Master Agreement (or, prior to the
delivery of the first financial statements under Section 5.1(a) of the Master

financial statements delivered under Section 5.1(a) of the Master Agreement
hereof, shall mean the audited financial statements as at December 31, 1999).

material variation

                                       -2-

between the application of accounting principles employed in the preparation of
such statement and the application of accounting principles employed in the
preparation of the next preceding annual or quarterly financial statements as to
which no objection has been made in accordance with the last sentence of
SUBSECTION (I) above and (ii) reasonable estimates of the difference between
such statements arising as a consequence thereof.

      (iii) To enable the ready and consistent determination of compliance with
the covenants set forth in Section 5.1 of the Master Agreement, the Company will
not change the last day of its fiscal year from December 31 of each year, or the
last days of the first three fiscal quarters in each of its fiscal years from
March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, respectively.

      C. CONFLICT IN OPERATIVE DOCUMENTS. If there is any conflict between any
Operative Documents, each such Operative Document shall be interpreted and
construed, if possible, so as to avoid or minimize such conflict but, to the
extent (and only to the extent) of such conflict, the Master Agreement shall
prevail and control.

of construction or interpretation otherwise requiring any Operative Document to
