permitted successors and assigns, the "Lender").

                                    RECITALS

                  The Borrower has requested that the Lender make loans to it in
an aggregate principal amount not exceeding $150,000,000 at any one time
outstanding. The Lender is prepared to make such loans upon the terms hereof.
Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

terms shall have the following meanings (all terms defined in this Section 1.01
or in other provisions of this Agreement in the singular to have the same
meanings when used in the plural and vice-versa):

                  "Acquisition Loan" shall mean a Loan the proceeds of which are
used to purchase or refinance one or more Acquisition Properties and to pay
costs incidental to the acquisition of such Acquisition Properties, including
reasonable and necessary due diligence costs, legal, accounting and title
insurance fees and reserves necessary for the repair and rehabilitation of such
Acquisition Properties.

                  "Acquisition Mortgage" shall mean a Mortgage made on an
Acquisition Property in connection with an Acquisition Loan.

                  "Acquisition Property" shall mean a Property (other than the
Initial Properties), owned by (or leased as an entirety to) the Borrower, all or
part of the purchase price of which is paid or refinanced with a Loan; and shall
also mean the Borrower's interest in such Property, if the Borrower does not own
fee title thereto.

                  "Additional Costs" shall have the meaning assigned to such
term in Section 5.01.

                  "Additional Loan" shall mean a Loan for which the Borrower
qualifies as a result of either or both of the Additional Properties becoming a
Collateral Property pursuant to Section 2.12.

Additional Property in connection with an Additional Loan.

controlled by, such Person and, if such Person is an individual, any member of
the immediate family (including parents, spouse and children) of such individual
and any trust whose principal beneficiary is such individual or one or more
members of such immediate family and any Person who is controlled by any such
member or trust. As used in this definition, "control" (including, with its
correlative meanings, "controlled by" and "under common control with") shall
mean possession, directly or indirectly, of power to direct or cause the
direction of management or policies (whether through ownership of securities or
partnership or other ownership interests, by contract or otherwise), provided
that, in any event, any Person which owns directly or indirectly 5% or more of
the securities having ordinary voting power for the election of directors or
other governing body of a corporation or 5% or more of the partnership or other
ownership interests of any other Person (other than as a limited partner of such
other Person) will be deemed to control such corporation or other Person.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no individual shall be deemed to be an Affiliate
of a corporation solely by reason of his or her being an officer or director of
such corporation.

Property, as at any date of determination thereof, the product of the Allocation
Factor for such Property multiplied by the outstanding principal balance of the

amount of the Acquisition Loan made with respect to such Acquisition Property,
provided that the Allocated Title Amount for any Collateral Property shall not
exceed the maximum principal amount secured by the Mortgage on such Collateral
Property, if any, as set forth in such Mortgage.

                  "Allocation Factor" shall mean, as at any date of
determination, for each Property, the percentage of the Available Amount on such
date that is attributable to the Property NOI of such Property, assuming that
(i) the reduction in the Available Amount pursuant to clause (ii) of the
definition thereof (on account of the REMIC Loan balance) is attributable solely
to the FSA Properties; and (ii) the portion of such reduction attributable to
each FSA Property is an amount equal to (A) the Property NOI of such FSA
Property on such date, divided by (B) the aggregate Property NOI of all the FSA
Properties on such date.

                  "Anchor Leases" shall mean the leases listed on Schedule G
hereto and any comparable major leases of space in Properties that the Lender
hereafter reasonably determines to be anchor leases.

publicly available on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of
determination (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any

time outstanding to the Borrower up to but not exceeding the amount of the

<PAGE>



Agreement, make available the amount of such Loan to the Borrower by
transferring the same, in immediately available funds, in an account of the
Borrower designated by the Borrower in writing; provided, however, that, to the
extent the Initial Loan is being applied to obtain the assignment of the
Existing Loan to the Lender, such portion of the Initial Loan shall be disbursed
directly to the Existing Lender. Borrowings hereunder shall occur not more than
one time during any calendar month.

                  2.03 Changes of Commitment. The Borrower shall have the right
to terminate or reduce the Commitment at any time or from time to time, provided
that: (i) the Borrower shall give notice of each such termination or reduction
as provided in Section 4.05; (ii) each partial reduction shall be in an amount
at least equal to $1,000,000; and (iii) if after giving effect to such

in an amount equal to such excess together with interest accrued thereon to the
date of prepayment plus any amounts payable in respect of such prepayment
pursuant to Section 5.04. The Commitment once terminated or reduced may not be
reinstated or increased.

                  2.04  Fees.

                  (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, on the Closing Date,
a non- refundable structuring fee in the amount of $750,000.

                  (b) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender on each date on which
a Loan is made hereunder a nonrefundable fee in an amount equal to one-half of
one percent (0.5%) of the principal amount of the Loan being made on such date;
provided, however, that the fees under this paragraph (b) shall not exceed, in
the aggregate, $750,000.

                  2.05 Note. The Loans shall be evidenced by a single amended,
restated and consolidated promissory note of the Borrower in the form of
Schedule B hereto, which shall consolidate the indebtedness evidenced by the Gap
Note and the Existing Note, and amend and restate the terms thereof. The date,
amount, interest rate of each Loan made by the Lender to the Borrower, and each
payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by the
Lender on its books and, prior to any transfer of the Note, endorsed by the
Lender on the schedule attached to the Note or any continuation thereof which
notations and endorsement shall be controlling absent demonstrable error;
provided that the failure of the Lender to make any such notation or endorsement
shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Note.

                  2.06 Optional Prepayments of Loans. Subject to Section 4.04,
the Borrower shall have the right to prepay Loans at any time or from time to
time in whole or in part, provided that: (i) the Borrower shall give the Lender
notice of each such prepayment as provided in Sec tion 4.05; and (ii) the
Borrower shall pay interest pursuant to Section 3.02 on the principal




                                       16

<PAGE>



amount prepaid, accrued to the prepayment date, together with any amounts due
under Section 5.04(a) in respect of such prepayment, on the prepayment date.

                  2.07 Acquisition Loans. The Borrower shall give the Lender at
least 15 Business Days' prior written notice of a request for a borrowing of an
Acquisition Loan. Such notice shall specify the amount of the Acquisition Loan
to be borrowed, the date of borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), and the
name, type and location of the Acquisition Property to be purchased with the
proceeds of such Acquisition Loan. The Borrower shall provide to the Lender the
following information (the "Approval Information") for each Acquisition Property
proposed to be acquired with the proceeds of an Acquisition Loan, which
information shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lender
and shall be provided to the Lender at least 15 Business Days' prior to the
proposed borrowing date: (i) an itemized budget for the twelve month period
commencing on a date reasonably near the date of such borrowing request, (ii) if
available (after the Borrower's reasonable efforts to obtain), the audited
financial statements for the two most recent years and unaudited quarterly
statements for the twelve-month period on a date reasonably near the date of
such borrowing request, (iii) if available (after the Borrower's reasonable
efforts to obtain), historical operating reports, (iv) if available (after the
Borrower's reasonable efforts to obtain), a rent roll and delinquency report and
tenant sales information, (v) copies of the contract of sale and, if available
(after the Borrower's reasonable efforts to obtain), all leases, material
contracts and permits, (vi) a written appraisal by an MAI appraiser or a market
study, (vii) an environmental audit of the type described in Section 6.01(j),
(viii) a property condition report, including a structural engineering report

ten-year schedule of anticipated capital expenditures and the annual cost
thereof, (ix) a title report and survey, (x) copies of current real estate tax
bills and (xi) such other information in the Borrower's possession or control as
the Lender may reasonably request. The Approval Information need not include
item (ii), (iii), (iv) or (viii) if the applicable Acquisition Property consists
entirely of unimproved land. The Borrower acknowledges that the Lender shall not
be obligated to make an Acquisition Loan prior to the date which is 15 Business
Days' after Lender's receipt of the Approval Information relating to such
Acquisition Loan and shall not be obligated to make an Acquisition Loan at any
time unless the Lender approves such Acquisition Loan in accordance with Section
6.03. Within 10 Business Days of receipt by the Lender of the Approval
Information, the Lender shall notify the Borrower in writing whether the Lender
so approves the requested Acquisition Loan and, if not, shall state the
reason(s) therefor. If the Lender approves such Acquisition Loan, such
Acquisition Loan shall be made, subject to the terms of this Agreement and any
other conditions reasonably required by the Lender at the time of funding, on
the borrowing date requested by the Borrower. Failure by the Lender to respond
to the Borrower's request for an Acquisition Loan within such 10 Business Day
period shall be deemed a rejection of such request.

                  2.08 Releases Upon Prepayment. Subject to Sections 2.06, 4.04
and 4.05, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans and to obtain a
Release in respect of any Release Property upon compliance with the provisions
of this Section 2.08. The Borrower shall exercise its rights under this Section
by delivering a written notice (a "Release Notice") to the




                                       17

<PAGE>



Lender which shall refer to this Section, identify the Release Property and be
accompanied by a counterpart of the Release in form for execution by the Lender
and by a certificate of a senior officer of the Borrower certifying that the
Release Conditions have been satisfied. Subject to the terms hereof, the Lender
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged
and delivered, to the Borrower such counterpart within ten Business Days after
receipt thereof. The obligation of the Lender to deliver a Release in respect of
any Release Property shall be subject to the fulfillment of the following
conditions (the "Release Conditions"):

                  (a) No Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the
date of the Release Notice or as of the date (the "Release Date") that the
Lender delivers the applicable Release;

                  (b) the Borrower shall pay to the Lender on the Release Date
an amount equal to not less than the Release Amount in respect of the Release
Property plus interest accrued to the Release Date on the principal amount of
the Release Amount plus any amounts payable in respect of such prepayment
pursuant to Section 5.04;

                  (c) after giving effect to such Release and the payments
contemplated by clause (b) above, the outstanding principal balance of the Loans
shall not exceed the Available Amount, and the Borrower shall provide the Lender
with a certificate of a senior financial officer of the Borrower setting forth
in reasonable detail computations indicating compliance with this Release
Condition;

                  (d) such Release is in connection with a bona fide,
arms-length sale (or exchange) of such Release Property, to a purchaser that is
not a Related Person of the Borrower, on fair market terms and conditions;

                  (e) if such Release Property is a Limited Release Property, it
is the first or second Limited Release Property to become actually released as a
Release Property;

                  (f) the Lender shall have received such updates or
confirmations relating to the title policies for the remaining Collateral
Properties as the Lender may reasonably request; and

                  (g) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Lender such
documents amending the Loan Documents to reflect such Release and such other
documents as the Lender or counsel to the Lender shall reasonably request, in
each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

If a Release is made in connection with (and concurrently with) the acquisition
by the Borrower of an Acquisition Property in exchange for a Release Property,
then the Borrower shall have the right to reduce the Release Amount, which would
otherwise be payable in connection with such




                                       18

<PAGE>



Release, by an amount (not exceeding such Release Amount) equal to the
Acquisition Loan to which the Borrower would otherwise be entitled in connection
with such acquisition, in which event such Acquisition Loan shall be reduced by
the same such amount (but such reductions shall not excuse the Borrower from the
satisfaction of the requirements hereof for such Release and such Acquisition
Loan).

                  2.09 Refinancing Fees. If the Borrower shall directly or
indirectly (through Affiliates) refinance all or any part of the Loans with any
form of debt or equity (including through the issuance of any debt or equity
securities, whether sold publicly or through a private placement), then the
Borrower shall pay to the Lender (in addition to the payment of the Loans and
all other amounts payable hereunder) on the closing date of such refinancing or
repayment, as the case may be, a fee (the "Lender Fee") in the amount of one
percent (1%) of the amount (if any) by which (i) eighty percent (80%) of the
aggregate principal amount of the Loans which is refinanced or repaid exceeds
(ii) the portion (if any) of such principal amount that is refinanced with an
NACC Refinancing. The prepayment of Loans in connection with a Release in
accordance with Section 2.08 shall not be considered to be a refinancing for
purposes of this Section 2.09.

                  2.10 Loss Event. If any Event of Loss occurs with respect to
any Collateral Property, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans to the extent
required by Section 3 of the applicable Mortgage. If any Event of Loss occurs
with respect to an FSA Property, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an
amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount (if any) of the proceeds of such
Event of Loss that are not applied (A) to prepay the REMIC Loan (or to pay other
amounts due to the holder thereof in connection with such prepayment), (B) to
restore such FSA Property or (C) to pay costs reasonably incurred in the
collection of such proceeds or (ii) the amount, if any, by which the outstanding
principal balance of the Loans exceeds the Available Amount as of the date of
such Event of Loss.

                  2.11 Appraisals. The Lender shall be entitled at any time to
obtain an appraisal or market study by an appraiser satisfactory to the Lender
with respect to any or all of the Properties. The Lender shall pay all
reasonable fees for any appraisals and market studies performed pursuant to this
Section 2.11, except the Borrower shall pay all such fees for appraisals and
market studies performed for the Lender if performed after the occurrence of an
Event of Default.

                  2.12 Additional Loans. Within a reasonable time after the date
hereof, the Lender shall notify the Borrower as to whether the environmental
condition of the Additional Properties is satisfactory to it. If the Lender so
notifies the Borrower that the environmental condition of an Additional Property
is satisfactory, then the Borrower shall have the right to receive an Additional
Loan hereunder with respect to such Additional Property, subject to the
fulfillment, within 30 days after the giving of such notice by the Lender, of
the conditions set forth in Section 6.05. If the environmental condition of an
Additional Property is satisfactory to the Lender and such conditions are
satisfied within such 30-day period, then such Additional




                                       19

<PAGE>



Property shall become a Collateral Property. If the environmental condition of
either Additional Property is not satisfactory to the Lender, or the Borrower
does not fulfill the conditions set forth in Section 6.05 with respect to such
Additional Property within such 30-day period, then the Borrower shall not be
entitled to receive an Additional Loan with respect to such Additional Property,
and such Additional Property shall not become a Collateral Property, unless the
Borrower requests an Additional Loan with respect thereto and the Lender, in its
sole discretion, thereafter determines that the environmental condition of such
Collateral Property has become satisfactory, and the Borrower fulfills the
conditions set forth in Section 6.05 with respect thereto within 30 days after
notice thereof from the Lender to the Borrower.

                  Section 3.  Payments of Principal and Interest.

                  3.01 Repayment of Loans. The Borrower will pay to the Lender
the principal of the outstanding Loans, together with accrued but unpaid
interest thereon and all other amounts payable to the Lender under the Loan
Documents, and each Loan shall mature, on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

                  3.02 Interest. Subject to Section 5.02, the Borrower will pay
to the Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan for the
period from and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date such
Loan shall be paid in full, at the lesser of (i) the LIBOR Rate (as in effect
from time to time) for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin, and (ii)
the highest rate permitted by law in each of the states in which a Collateral
Property is located. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Borrower will pay to the
Lender interest at the applicable Post-Default Rate on any unpaid principal of
each Loan and (to the fullest extent permitted by law) on all other amounts
payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Note or under the other Loan
Documents for the period from and including the date of such Event of Default to
but excluding the date the same is paid in full or such Event of Default shall
have been cured. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable (i) on the
Interest Payment Dates and (ii) upon the payment or prepayment thereof (but only
on the principal amount so paid or prepaid), except that interest payable at the
Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.

                  3.03 Extension Option; Extension Fee. After December 18, 1998,
but not later than January 18, 1999 the Borrower may notify the Lender in
writing that the Borrower desires to extend the Revolving Credit Termination
Date to February 18, 2000. Upon receipt of such request to extend the Revolving
Credit Termination Date, the Lender will promptly confirm to the Borrower in
writing that the Revolving Credit Termination Date will be extended to February
18, 2000 upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

                  (a) no Event of Default or Default exists at the time such
request is made and on February 18, 1999;





                                       20

<PAGE>



                  (b) the Borrower delivers to the Lender a certificate from a
senior financial officer of the Borrower confirming the accuracy of the
information contained in clause (a) above;

                  (c) the Commitment is not less than $50,000,000 as of February
18, 1999;

                  (d) the Borrower pays the Extension Fee in Dollars to the
Lender not later than February 18, 1999; and

                           (e) either (i) the Borrower shall have delivered to
the Lender a statement signed by VF confirming that each of the VF outlet
centers covered by the VF Leases in the Properties listed in Schedule 4.15 to
the VF Agreement achieved "breakeven" (as such term is used and defined in
Section 4.15 of the VF Agreement) in 1998 or (ii) the Loan Amount does not
exceed the Available Amount, determined without including the Property NOI from
any of such Properties for which such confirmation shall not have been made (or
shall not have been obtained and delivered) ("Excluded VF Properties").

If the Revolving Credit Termination Date is extended pursuant to this Section
3.03, but the condition set forth in the foregoing clause (e)(i) shall not have
been fulfilled, then from and after February 18, 1999 (until such time, if any,
as such condition is fulfilled), the Available Amount shall be determined
without including the Property NOI of the Excluded VF Properties.

                  Section 4.  Payments; Computations; Etc.

                  4.01  Payments.

                  (a) Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all
payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower
under this Agreement and the Note shall be made in Dollars, in immediately
available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Lender at
the account of the Lender last specified by notice to the Borrower, not later
than 4:00 p.m. New York time on the date on which such payment shall become due
(each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have
been made on the next succeeding Business Day).

                  (b) All payments of principal of the Loans under this
Agreement (including prepayments pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.08 or as a result
of the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 9) shall be applied to the
Loans in such manner and order of priority as the Lender shall elect in its sole
and absolute discretion; provided, however, that no payment shall be applied to
principal unless and until all past due interest and all interest in respect of
principal being paid has been paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
amounts secured by any Jurisdictional Capped Mortgage (as defined in Section
6.02(c)) shall not be reduced in connection with any payment of principal unless
(i) the Property covered thereby is the subject of




                                       21

<PAGE>



a permitted Release concurrent with such payment or (ii) the aggregate maximum
principal amount secured by such Jurisdictional Capped Mortgage(s) shall equal
or exceed the total principal amount of all Loans then outstanding (in which
case the Lender will determine in its sole discretion which Mortgages comprising
such Jurisdictional Capped Mortgages are to be reduced).

                  (c) If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or the
Note would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall
be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.

                  4.02 Computations. Interest on Loans shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable.

                  4.03 Setoff. The Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and
without limitation of) any right of set-off or counterclaim the Lender may
otherwise have, the Lender shall be entitled, at its option, to offset balances
held by it or any of its Affiliates for account of the Borrower (or amounts due
from it to the Borrower) at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other
currency, against any principal of or interest on any of the Loans, or any other
amount payable to the Lender hereunder, which is not paid when due (regardless
of whether such balances are then due to the Borrower), in which case it shall
promptly notify the Borrower thereof, provided that the Lender's failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity thereof; provided, however, that the
Lender shall not have any right under this Section 4.03 as to any tenant
security deposits or other monies held in trust by the Borrower for third
parties.

                  4.04 Minimum Amounts. Each borrowing of the Loans and each
voluntary prepayment of principal of the Loans shall be in an amount at least
equal to $1,000,000.

                  4.05 Certain Notices. Notices by the Borrower to the Lender of
any termination or reduction of the Commitment, of borrowings of Loans and of
prepayments of Loans shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if
received by the Lender not later than 5:00 p.m. New York time on the number of
Business Days prior to the date of the relevant termination, reduction,
borrowing, or prepayment specified below (or such longer period as is specified
in 2.07 in the case of the borrowing of Acquisition Loans):

prepayment shall specify the Loans to be prepaid and the amount (subject to
Section 4.04), and the date of prepayment (which shall be a Business Day). Each
notice of borrowing of Loans shall be substantially in the form of Schedule C
hereto and shall specify the amount (subject to Section 4.04) to be borrowed,
the date of borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the Debt Service Ratio
and Available Amount immediately prior to and immediately after such borrowing
and shall be accompanied by such other information as the Lender may reasonably
request. Each notice of borrowing by the Borrower hereunder shall constitute a
certification by the Borrower to the effect set forth in clauses (a), (b) and
(e) of Section 6.02 (both as of the date of such notice and, unless the Borrower
otherwise notifies the Lender prior to the date of such borrowing, as of the
date of such borrowing).

                  Section 5.  Yield Protection and Illegality.

                  5.01  Additional Costs.

                  (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender from time to time
such amounts as the Lender may reasonably determine to be necessary to
compensate it for any increase in costs which the Lender reasonably determines
are attributable to its making or maintaining any Loans or its obligation to
make any Loans hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by the
Lender hereunder in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation (such
increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called
"Additional Costs"), resulting from any Regulatory Change which:

                           (i) imposes or modifies any reserve or similar
         requirement on financial institutions of a type that includes the
         Lender with respect to extensions of credit secured by real estate or
         any commitment therefor (including the Commitment); or

                          (ii) imposes any other condition affecting this
         Agreement or the Note (or any of such extensions of credit) or the
         Commitment and other extensions of credit generally.





                                       23

<PAGE>



If the Lender requests compensation from the Borrower under this Section
5.01(a), the Borrower may, by notice to the Lender, suspend the obligation of
the Lender to make Loans until the Regulatory Change giving rise to such request
ceases to be in effect.

                  (b) Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of
this Section 5.01 (but without duplication), the Borrower shall pay directly to
the Lender from time to time on request such amounts as are reasonably necessary
to compensate the Lender for any costs which are attributable to the maintenance
by the Lender, pursuant to any law or regulation or any interpretation,
directive or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any court or
governmental or monetary authority, or pursuant to any risk-based capital
guideline or other requirement (whether or not having force of law and whether
or not the failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) heretofore or
hereafter issued by any government or governmental or supervisory authority,
which is applicable generally to financial institutions of a type that includes
the Lender, with respect to extensions of credit secured by real estate, of
capital in respect to the Commitment or the Loans (such compensation to be in an
amount equal to any reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of the
Lender to a level below that which the Lender could have achieved but for such
law, regulation, interpretation, directive or request).

                  (c) The Lender will notify the Borrower of any event occurring
after the date of this Agreement that will entitle the Lender to compensation
under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01 as promptly as practicable, but
in any event within 90 days, after the Lender obtains actual knowledge thereof;
provided, however, that if the Lender fails to give such notice within 90 days
after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, the Lender shall, with
respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section 5.01 in respect of any
costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment under this Section
5.01 for costs incurred from and after the date 90 days prior to the date that
the Lender does give such notice. The Lender will furnish to the Borrower a
certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by the Lender for
compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01. Determinations and
allocations by the Lender for purposes of this Section 5.01 of the effect of any
Regulatory Change pursuant to Section 5.01(a), on its costs or rate of return of
maintaining Loans or its obligation to make Loans, or on amounts receivable by
it in respect of Loans, and of the amounts required to compensate the Lender
under this Section 5.01, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

                  5.02 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for the Lender to honor its
obligation to make or maintain Loans bearing interest based upon a margin over
the LIBOR Rate hereunder then (i) the Lender shall promptly give notice (a
"Lender's Notice") to the Borrower thereof, (ii) the Lender's obligation to make
Loans bearing interest based upon a margin over the LIBOR Rate shall be
suspended until such time as the Lender may again make and maintain Loans
bearing interest based upon a margin over the LIBOR Rate and (iii) the Lender
shall, in the Lender's Notice, establish the interest rate applicable to the
Loans at the equivalent spread (the "Substitute Spread"), taking into account
the amount of the Loans and the creditworthiness of the Borrower, above an index
used for variable rate loans, which is the best available alternative to
approximate LIBOR, as




                                       24

<PAGE>



reasonably determined by the Lender (the "Substitute Rate"), in which case the
interest rate applicable to the Loans shall be a rate equal to the Substitute
Rate in effect from time to time plus the Substitute Spread, so long as such
condition remains in effect.

                  5.03 Limitation on Types of Loans. Anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of the LIBOR Rate
for any Interest Period, the Lender determines (which determination shall be
conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the deposits referred to in
the definition of "LIBOR Rate" in Section 1.01 necessary for purposes of
determining rates of interest on the Loans are not being provided; then the
Lender shall give the Borrower prompt notice thereof, and shall, in such notice,
establish the interest rate applicable to the Loans at the Substitute Rate plus
the Substitute Spread, in which case the interest rate applicable to the Loans
shall be a rate equal to the Substitute Rate in effect from time to time plus
the Substitute Spread, so long as such condition remains in effect.

                  5.04 Compensation. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, upon
the request of the Lender, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the
reasonable opinion of the Lender) to compensate it for any actual out-of-pocket
loss, cost or expense, of the type included in what is commonly referred to as
"breakage costs", which the Lender reasonably determines is attributable to:

                  (a) any voluntary payment or prepayment of a Loan for any
         reason (including the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 9)
         on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan,
         except for (i) a prepayment of a Release Amount in connection with a
         Release or (ii) a prepayment made to the extent necessary to cure any
         non-compliance with a covenant in Section 8.15 or 8.16; or

                  (b) any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including the
         failure of any of the conditions precedent specified in Section 6 to be
         satisfied) to borrow a Loan on the date for such borrowing specified in
         the relevant notice of borrowing given pursuant to Section 4.05.

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
which otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid or prepaid or
not borrowed for the period from the date of such payment or failure to borrow
to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the
case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan which would have
commenced on the date specified for such borrowing) at the applicable rate of
interest for such Loan provided for herein over (ii) the cost of funds to the
Lender of making such Loan (as reasonably determined by the Lender).

                  (ee) Other Documents. Such other documents relating to the
         transactions contemplated hereby as the Lender or counsel to the Lender
         may reasonably request.

                  6.02 Initial and Subsequent Loans. The obligation of the
Lender to make any Loan to the Borrower upon the occasion of each borrowing
hereunder (including the initial borrowing) is subject to the further conditions
precedent that:

                  (a) Default. Both immediately prior to such Loan and also
         after giving effect thereto, no Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing.

                  (b) Representations. The representations and warranties made
         by the Borrower in Section 7 and in the other Loan Documents shall be
         true and complete in all material respects on and as of the date of the
         making of such Loan with the same force and effect as if made on and as
         of such date.

                  (c)      Recording Taxes.

                           (i) The Borrower shall have paid all mortgage,
         mortgage recording and intangible taxes payable (if any) in each
         jurisdiction in which any Collateral Property is located and shall have
         delivered to the Lender, at commercially reasonable cost, any and all
         supplemental or additional mortgages, in form and substance
         satisfactory to the Lender (or otherwise containing terms and
         conditions substantially similar to those contained in the then
         existing applicable Jurisdictional Capped Mortgages in existence on the
         date hereof), as may be reasonably required by the Lender in connection
         with such Loan to better perfect the Lender's security interests in
         then-existing Collateral Properties.

                           (ii) Without limiting the generality of the
         foregoing, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
         any Mortgage, the Borrower and the Lender specifically acknowledge and
         agree that, to the extent there has been a payment of principal in
         connection with the Loans which results in the aggregate outstanding
         principal amount of the Loans being less than the aggregate maximum
         principal amount of the Loans secured by any particular Jurisdictional
         Capped Mortgage (whether or not such aggregate outstanding principal
         amount of the Loans was originally less than the aggregate maximum
         principal amount of the Loans secured by such Jurisdictional Capped
         Mortgage prior to such payment), then (A) the Borrower may thereafter
         be required to pay additional mortgage recording taxes in connection
         with any future advance or re-advance pursuant to this Agreement if
         necessary under applicable law for the Jurisdictional Capped Mortgages
         in existence at or prior to such advance or re-advance to secure, in
         accordance with applicable law, the amount of such advance or
         re-advance up to the aggregate maximum original principal amount
         secured by such Jurisdictional Capped Mortgage(s), and (B) if and to
         the extent that the Lender reasonably determines that any such
         additional mortgage recording taxes are so due and payable in




                                       32

<PAGE>



         connection with any such future advance or re-advance, the Borrower
         shall pay such additional mortgage recording taxes to the appropriate
         governmental taxing authorities, and shall duly execute and deliver to
         the Lender any and all supplemental or additional mortgages and
         consolidation agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
         to the Lender (or otherwise containing terms and conditions
         substantially similar to those contained in the then existing
         applicable Jurisdictional Capped Mortgages in existence on the date
         hereof) as may be reasonably required by the Lender in connection
         therewith.

                           (iii) As used herein, "Jurisdictional Capped
         Mortgages" shall collectively mean, for each state, all of the
         Mortgage(s) now or hereafter covering Collateral Property located in
         such state (and, if the Borrower requests, separate Jurisdictional
         Capped Mortgages for each such Collateral Property) which secure a
         maximum original principal amount of indebtedness which is less than
         the Commitment, whether for the purpose of limiting the debt secured by
         such Mortgage and the mortgage recording taxes payable in connection
         therewith or otherwise with the Lender's approval, which will not be
         unreasonably withheld; and the "aggregate maximum principal amount of
         the Loans secured by any such Jurisdictional Capped Mortgage(s)" shall
         mean the aggregate maximum original principal amount of the Loan
         secured by all of the Mortgages covering Collateral Property in such
         state, as specified in such Mortgages.

                  (d) Title Updates. With respect to Loans other than the
         Initial Loans, if requested by the Lender (and, in determining whether
         or not to make such request, the Lender shall consider, among other
         things, the magnitude of such Loan and the length of time since the
         previous title continuations), the Lender shall have received a notice
         of title continuation and an endorsement to each of the existing title
         insurance policies covering the Collateral Properties insuring that
         since the making of the last Loan there has been no change in the state
         of title or priority of the Lender's Lien and no survey exceptions not
         theretofore approved by the Lender, together with other evidence
         satisfactory to the Lender that no mechanic's liens or other Liens have
         been filed and remain filed with respect to the Collateral Properties,
         which endorsement shall have the effect of (i) updating the date of the
         existing title insurance policies covering the Collateral Properties to
         the date of the making of such Loan and insuring that the priority of
         the Lender's Lien is not subject to any intervening liens arising
         between the date of the existing title policies and the date of the
         making of such Loan and (ii) increasing (subject to any existing tie-in
         endorsements) the coverage of the existing title insurance policies by
         an amount equal to the amount of the Loan then being made, together
         with, as may be required by the Lender, such reinsurance schedules and
         agreements in respect of all existing title insurance policies for the
         Collateral Properties in amounts and otherwise in form and substance
         satisfactory to the Lender and executed by the Title Companies;
         provided that with respect to Collateral Properties located in the
         State of Texas (and other states with similar statutory or regulatory
         prohibitions) the Borrower shall not have any obligation to deliver
         such notice of title continuation or endorsement for any such
         Collateral Property but shall deliver to the Lender in lieu thereof a
         clean abstract issued by the Title Company




                                       33

<PAGE>



         or letter from the Title Company in form and substance reasonably
         satisfactory to the Lender indicating that there does not exist any
         unreleased Lien on any such Collateral Property on the date of the
         making of such Loan and indicating that the state of title and priority
         of the Lender's Lien with respect to such Collateral Property on the
         date of the making of such Loan have not been impaired from the state
         of title and priority of the Lender's Lien since the making of the last
         Loan. Lender shall have also received such updates relating to the
         tie-in endorsement(s) relating to such title policies as the Lender may
         reasonably request.

                  (e) Available Amount. Immediately after giving effect to such
         Loan and the concurrent acquisition (if any) of a Collateral Property,
         the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans shall not be
         more than the Available Amount (determined as of the date of such
         borrowing).

                  (f) Accommodation Documents. The Borrower shall have executed
         and delivered to the Lender such documents and agreements and taken
         such action including executing such amendments or supplements to the
         Loan Documents, which in the sole but reasonable discretion of the
         Lender, are necessary so that the Lender shall not (in the sole
         discretion of the Lender) be required to qualify to do business in or
         obtain any licenses or authorization in any jurisdiction in which any
         Collateral Property is or will be located (after giving effect to such
         Loan).

                  (g) Fees and Expenses. (1) All fees and expenses payable to
         the Lender, including the fees and expenses referred to in Sections
         2.04 and 10.03, to the extent then due and payable, shall have been (or
         contemporaneously are being) paid in full and (2) all title premiums
         and other title and survey charges shall have been (or
         contemporaneously are being) paid in full.

                  (h) Officer's Certificate. A certificate of a senior officer
         of the Borrower certifying that to the best of his/her knowledge after
         due inquiry the conditions set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (e) of
         this Section 6.02 are satisfied.

                  (i) Other Documents. Such other documents relating to such
         transactions as the Lender may reasonably request.

                  6.03 Acquisition Loans. The obligation of the Lender to make
any Acquisition Loan to the Borrower is subject to the conditions precedent
that:

                           (a) The Borrower shall have complied in all material
respects with all of the conditions precedent listed (i) in clauses (b), (c),
(e), (g), (h), (i), (k), (m), (n), (q), (r), (y), (z), (aa) and (ee) of Section
6.01 with respect to the Collateral Property being acquired as if such
Acquisition Loan were an Initial Loan and the Collateral Property being acquired
were an Initial Property or the "Initial Properties", as such terms are used in
Section 6.01; (ii) in clauses (a) and




                                       34

<PAGE>



(d) of Section 6.01 if any changes therein have occurred since last delivered;
and (iii) in Sections 2.07 and 6.02; provided, however, that the forms of
documentation delivered in connection with the foregoing shall be deemed
satisfactory if substantially in the same form as for the Initial Loan (with
such changes as may be necessary to reflect different facts or legal
requirements);

                           (b) The Borrower shall have obtained and delivered to
the Lender estoppel certificates from such tenants at such Collateral Property
as the Lender shall reasonably require, in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Lender; and

                           (c) The Borrower shall have executed, acknowledged
and delivered to the Lender amendments to each of the Loan Documents, in form
and substance satisfactory to the Lender, incorporating the Loan and the
Collateral Property in question therein, except to the extent that a failure to
so amend would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

                  6.04 Expansion Loans. The obligation of the Lender to make
Loans for expansion purposes is subject to the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 6.02 (including Section 6.02(e)), but shall not be subject to the
provisions of Section 2.07 or Section 6.03, irrespective of whether such
expansions involve (i) the purchase of property neighboring a Property for the
purpose of expanding such Property, and constructing an expansion thereon, or
(ii) the construction of an expansion on an existing Property within the
boundaries of such Property or (iii) the acquisition or construction of any
other property for expansion purposes; provided that the Property NOI from such
expansion shall not be included in the Property NOI of the Properties (for
purposes of determining the Available Amount or otherwise) unless or until a
Mortgage shall have been recorded against the property that contains such
expansion and Borrower shall have complied with the other conditions set forth
in Section 6.03 with respect thereto.

                  6.05 Additional Loans. The obligation of the Lender to make an
Additional Loan with respect to either of the Additional Properties is subject
to the fulfillment by the Borrower in all material respects of all of the
conditions precedent listed (i) in clauses (b), (c), (e), (g), (h), (i) and (k)
through (bb) of Section 6.01 with respect to such Additional Property as if such
Additional Loan were an Initial Loan and such Additional Property were an
Initial Property or the "Initial Properties" as such terms are used in Section
6.01 (and, to the extent applicable, with respect to the Borrower's leasehold
title in the case of the Additional Property in Alabama); (ii) in clauses (a)
and (d) of Section 6.01 if any changes therein have occurred since last
delivered; and (iii) in Section 6.02; provided, however, that the forms of
documentation delivered in connection with the foregoing shall be deemed
satisfactory if substantially in the same form as for the Initial Loan (with
such changes as may be necessary to reflect different facts or legal
requirements).

                           Section 7. Representations and Warranties. The
Borrower represents and warrants to the Lender that:





                                       35

duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its

authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on
its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted; and (c) is qualified

qualify would have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  7.02 Financial Condition. The financial statements delivered
to the Lender pursuant to Section 6.01(l) fairly present the financial condition
and results of operations of the Borrower on the dates and for the periods
covered thereby. Since the date of the most recent of such financial statements,
there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition or
operations of the Borrower from that set forth in such financial statement.

                  7.03 Litigation. Except as disclosed to the Lender in writing
prior to the date of this Agreement, 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 Borrower) threatened against the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which, if adversely determined, could have
a Material Adverse Effect.

                  7.04 No Breach. None of the execution and delivery of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions
herein and therein contemplated and compliance with the terms and provisions
hereof and thereof will conflict with or result in a breach of, or require any
consent (except such consents as have been obtained) under, the charter or
by-laws of the Borrower, 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 the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is
a party or by which any of them is bound or to which any of them is subject, or
constitute a default under any such agreement or instrument, or (except for the
Lien arising under the Security Documents) result in the creation or imposition
of any Lien upon any of the revenues or assets of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument.

                  7.05 Corporate Action. The Borrower has all necessary
corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; the execution, delivery and
performance by the Borrower of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on its part; and each of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents has been duly and validly executed
and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and the Note when executed and
delivered for value will constitute, its legal, valid and binding obligation,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,
moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights
in general and to general principles of equity.

                  7.06 Approvals. Except for the recording or filing of the
Security Documents as contemplated by this Agreement, no authorizations,

thereof.

                  7.07 Use of Loans. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries 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 Loan hereunder will be used to buy or carry any margin stock.

                  7.08 ERISA. The Borrower and the ERISA Affiliates have
fulfilled their respective obligations under the minimum funding standards of
ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan and are in compliance in all
material respects with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the

United States Federal income tax returns and all other tax returns which are
required to be filed by them and have paid all taxes due pursuant to such
returns or pursuant to any assessment received by them; except such taxes which
are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and against which
adequate reserves are being maintained as required by Section 8.03. The charges,
accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in
respect of taxes and other governmental charges are, in the opinion of the
Borrower, adequate. Except as otherwise disclosed to the Lender in writing,
there are not presently pending any special assessments against the Collateral
or any part thereof.

and be continuing as of the date of such request and the Borrower shall have
delivered to the Lender a certificate of a senior officer of the Borrower
confirming such fact and certifying that such sale qualifies as a Third-Party
Sale, (iii) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of
such Release, and (iv) Lender shall have received such assurance as it shall
reasonably require that the portion of the Collateral Property not being
conveyed will not be adversely affected by such conveyance (including, without
limitation, assurance that such Collateral Property will constitute a separate
legal parcel and tax lot, in compliance with all zoning and other legal
requirements, with undiminished legal access to public roads, and will not be
affected by any Liens that are not Permitted Liens).

                  (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.08 or 8.05(a),
Lender shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to the conveyance by the
Borrower, free and clear of the




                                       46

<PAGE>



Lien of the Security Documents, without payment of a Release Amount, of a
portion of a Collateral Property for the benefit of such Collateral Property,
such as the dedication of a road to public use; provided such portion does not
contain (and the ownership thereof by the Borrower is not integral to) an
income-producing improvement.

                  (d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.05(a), Lender
shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to the conveyance of the Collateral
Properties, subject to the Mortgages and the other Security Documents, to
Qualified REIT Subsidiaries, provided (i) such conveyances do not adversely
affect or impair the Lender's security or its rights or remedies under the Loan
Documents, (ii) if requested by the Lender, the Borrower shall pledge the stock
of such Qualified REIT Subsidiaries to the Lender as additional Collateral, and
(iii) the Borrower and such Qualified REIT Subsidiaries execute and deliver to
the Lender such agreements and other documents as the Lender shall reasonably
require in connection therewith.

                  8.06 Limitation on Liens. The Borrower will not, nor will it
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any
Lien upon any of their Properties, assets or revenues, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired, except the following ("Permitted Liens"):

                  (a) Liens imposed by any governmental authority for taxes,
         assessments or charges not yet delinquent or which are being contested
         in good faith and by appropriate proceedings (and, with respect to the
         Borrower and the Collateral Properties, in accordance with the
         Mortgages relating thereto) if adequate reserves with respect thereto
         are maintained on the books of the Borrower in accordance with GAAP;

                  (b) carriers', warehousemen's, mechanics', materialmen's,
         repairmen's or other Liens arising in the ordinary course of business
         which are not overdue for a period of more than 30 days after the
         Borrower's receipt of notice thereof or which are being contested in
         good faith and by appropriate proceedings (and, with respect to the
         Borrower and the Collateral Properties, in accordance with the
         Mortgages relating thereto);

                  (c) pledges or deposits under worker's compensation,
         unemployment insurance and other social security legislation;

                  (d) deposits to secure the performance of bids, trade
         contracts (other than for borrowed money), leases, statutory
         obligations, surety and appeal bonds, performance bonds, bonds to
         secure construction of improvements and other obligations of a like
         nature incurred in the ordinary course of business;

                  (e) easements, rights-of-way, restrictions and other similar
         encumbrances incurred in the ordinary course of business and
         encumbrances consisting of zoning restrictions, easements, licenses,
         restrictions on the use of property or minor imperfections in title
         thereto which, in the aggregate, are not material in amount, and




                                       47

<PAGE>



         which 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 Borrower or the owner of the affected Property;

                  (f) Liens on the Collateral arising or permitted to exist
         under the Loan Documents and Liens set forth in any title policies
         covering the Properties;

                  (g) Liens on the FSA Properties arising or permitted to exist
         under the REMIC Loan Documents;

                  (h) any extension, renewal or replacement of the foregoing,
         provided, however, that the Liens permitted hereunder shall not be
         spread to cover any additional Indebtedness or property (other than a
         substitution of like property); and

                  (i) any Lien that the Lender expressly approves, which
         approval shall not be unreasonably withheld in the case of a Lien
         granted by the Borrower or a Subsidiary that is not in the nature of a
         Lien on real property granted to secure Indebtedness.

                  8.07  Leasing.

                  (a) The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent
         of the Lender, which will not be unreasonably withheld, (i) enter into,
         modify, amend or terminate any Lease (as such term is defined in the
         Mortgages) that covers more than 20,000 rentable square feet of space
         in a Collateral Property or more than 20% of the aggregate rentable
         square feet of space in a Collateral Property, or (ii) terminate,
         reduce or postpone any amount payable by the tenant under, or shorten
         the term of, any Lease of space in a Collateral Property unless such
         action does not materially adversely affect the value of such
         Collateral Property (after taking into account any planned alternative
         use of such space, in the case of a Lease termination). If the Lender
         fails to respond to a request for consent under this Section 8.07
         within ten Business Days, such consent shall be deemed to have been
         granted.

                  (b) The Borrower shall use diligent, good faith efforts to
         obtain and deliver to the Lender, within 120 days after the date
         hereof, subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements in
         substantially the form previously approved by the Lender or otherwise
         in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, executed by
         each of the tenants of the Properties that is identified as an "SNDA
         Tenant" on Schedule I hereto.

                  8.08 Business. Without the Lender's consent, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld, the Borrower shall not, and shall not cause or permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, conduct or engage in any business or activity other
than the acquisition, ownership, development, construction, leasing, operation
and management of factory outlet centers, community retail




                                       48

<PAGE>



centers and other retail properties, and activities (including ancillary office
use) incidental or related thereto.

                  8.09 Dividend Payments. Without the Lender's prior written
consent, the Borrower will not declare or make any Dividend Payment at any time
that an Event of Default that could be cured by the payment of money shall have
occurred and be continuing or at any time that the Borrower shall fail to comply
with Section 8.15. In determining whether to give or withhold such consent, the
Lender shall take into account any detrimental affect that the failure to make
such Dividend Payment might have on the Borrower's qualification as a real
estate investment trust.

                  8.10 REMIC Loan. The Borrower shall cause FSA to perform and
observe all of FSA's covenants and obligations under the REMIC Loan Documents in
accordance with the terms thereof. The Borrower shall not permit any
modification, supplement or refinancing of the REMIC Loan or any of the REMIC
Loan Documents, with the prior written consent of the Lender, which will not be
unreasonably withheld.

                  8.11 Transactions with Affiliates. Except as expressly
permitted by this Agreement, the Borrower will not, and will not permit FSA to,
directly or indirectly enter into any transaction directly or indirectly with or
for the benefit of an Affiliate, unless the monetary or business consideration
arising therefrom would be substantially as advantageous to the Borrower or FSA
as the monetary or business consideration which would obtain in a comparable
arm's-length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate.

                  8.12 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of
the Loans hereunder solely (i) to repay indebtedness outstanding on the date
hereof, (ii) to cause the assignment to the Lender of the Existing Loan, (iii)
to purchase or refinance the purchase of Acquisition Properties, (iv) to pay the
cost of expanding the Properties, (v) to pay transaction costs associated with
the foregoing, and (vi) for general corporate purposes; provided that the Lender
shall not have any responsibility as to the use of any of such proceeds; and
provided further that a portion of the Initial Loan shall be used to pay in full
the obligations of the Borrower owing to VF Factory Outlet, Inc. ("VF") pursuant
to Section 4.14 of that certain Asset and Real Estate Purchase Agreement dated
April 16, 1993 (the "VF Agreement"), and Section 46 of each of the Leases to
which VF is a party (collectively, the "VF Leases"), the amount of which
obligations the Borrower represents and warrants to be in the amount of
$2,016,000 plus interest.

                  8.13 Ground Lease. The following provisions shall be
applicable if the Additional Property in Alabama becomes a Collateral Property:

                  (a) Except as required pursuant to Section 8.13(b), or in
connection with the Borrower's acquisition of fee title to the premises demised
under the Ground Lease (and the concurrent spreading of the lien of the related
Mortgage to such fee title), the Borrower shall not modify, amend, terminate,
surrender or waive any of its rights or options under the Ground




                                       49

<PAGE>



Lease, and shall perform and observe all of the terms and conditions of the
Ground Lease to be performed and observed by it thereunder and do all things
necessary to preserve and maintain its right, title and interest as lessee
thereunder in full force and effect.

                  (b) The Borrower shall use diligent good faith efforts to
cause the Ground Lease to be modified by an amendment substantially in the form
heretofore approved by the Lender within 120 days after the date hereof. Unless
and until the Ground Lease is so modified, and an executed original of such
amendment is delivered to the Lender, the Lender shall have the right, in its
sole discretion (i) to deem the Available Amount to have been reduced by an
amount equal to the sum of (A) the amount (the "Option Amount") required under
the Ground Lease to acquire fee title to the premises demised thereunder,
pursuant to the purchase option contained therein (the "Option"), plus (B) the
amount by which the Available Amount would be reduced if the Borrower were to
own such fee title (as a result of the increase in Property Expenses
attributable to the amount by which annual real estate taxes on such premises
would exceed annual rent under the Ground Lease), and (ii) if an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (A) to exercise the Option on
behalf of the Borrower, (B) to cause the lessor under the Ground Lease to convey
fee title to such premises to the Borrower in accordance with the Option, and
(C) to disburse the Option Amount to the lessor under the Ground Lease, on
behalf of the Borrower, as an advance of the Loan (in which event the lien of
the Mortgage covering the Ground Lease will be spread to cover such fee title).
The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Lender as the
attorney-in-fact for the Borrower, with full power and authority to act in its
name and on its behalf in order to carry out the provisions of the foregoing
clause (ii). Such power of attorney is a special power of attorney, coupled with
an interest, but shall terminate upon the earlier of (x) the payment in full of
the Loan and all of the Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents or (y)
the execution and delivery of the Ground Lease amendment pursuant to this
Section 8.13(b).

                  8.14  Deferred Maintenance.

                  (a) The Borrower shall perform the repairs and deferred
maintenance at the Initial Collateral Properties described in Schedule J hereto
(the "Required Repairs"). The Borrower shall complete each of the Required
Repairs on or before the deadline for same set forth on Schedule J. Amounts
hereafter deposited with the Lender pursuant to this Section 8.14 (the "Required
Repair Fund") with respect to Acquisition Properties shall be held by the Lender
in an account or subaccount (the "Required Repair Account") in the Lender's name
at Centura Bank or another financial institution selected by the Lender in its
sole discretion and shall be invested in Permitted Investments; and earnings
thereon shall be added to the Required Repair Fund.

                  (b) The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants a security
interest to the Lender, as security for payment of all sums due in respect of
the Loan and the performance of all other terms, conditions and covenants of the
Loan Documents on the Borrower's part to be paid and performed, all of the
Borrower's right, title and interest in and to the Required Repair Fund




                                       50

<PAGE>



and the Required Repair Account. The Borrower shall not, without obtaining the
prior written consent of the Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any
security interest in the Required Repair Fund or the Required Repair Account or
permit any Lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1
Financing Statements, except those naming the Lender as the secured party, to be
filed with respect thereto.

                  (c) The Lender shall disburse to the Borrower Required Repair
Funds (if any) in the Required Repair Account upon satisfaction by the Borrower
of each of the following conditions: (i) the Borrower shall submit to the Lender
a written request for payment at least five Business Days prior to the date on
which the Borrower requests such payment to be made, (ii) on the date such
request is received by the Lender and on the date such payment is to be made, no
Default or Event of Default shall exist and remain uncured, (ii) the Lender
shall have received a certificate from a responsible officer of the Borrower (A)
indicating that, to the best of his or her knowledge, one or more Required
Repairs have been completed (1) in a good and workmanlike manner, and (2) in
accordance with all applicable legal requirements, such certificate to be
accompanied by a copy of each license, permit or other approval required by any
governmental authority in connection such Required Repairs, (B) identifying each
Person in privity with the Borrower that supplied materials or labor in
connection with such Required Repairs and (C) stating that each such Person has
been (or will with such requested payment be) paid in full, such certificate to
be accompanied by a copy of appropriate lien waivers or other evidence of
payment satisfactory to the Lender, (iv) at the Lender's option, a title search
for the relevant Collateral Property indicating that such Collateral Property is
free from all liens, claims and other encumbrances not previously approved by
the Lender, and (v) the Lender shall have received such other evidence it shall
reasonably request that such Required Repairs have been completed and have been
or will be paid for. The Lender shall be required to make only one disbursement
per month from the Required Repair Account and such disbursement shall be made
only upon satisfaction of each condition contained in this Section 8.14(c). Upon
completion of all Required Repairs in accordance with the terms hereof, the
Lender shall disburse to the Borrower any amounts then remaining in the Required
Repair Account.

                  (d) It shall be a Default if the Borrower does not complete
the Required Repairs within one year after the Closing Date. Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default, the Lender, at its option, may withdraw all Required
Repair Funds from the Required Repair Account and apply such funds either to
completion of the Required Repairs or toward payment of the Indebtedness
hereunder in such order, proportion and priority as the Lender may determine in
its sole discretion. The Lender's right to withdraw and apply Required Repair
Funds shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

                  (e) Upon the Borrower's acquisition of each Acquisition
Property, the Borrower shall comply with the provisions of Section 8.14(a), and
thereafter shall comply with the other provisions of this Section 8.14, with
respect to repairs and deferred maintenance at such




                                       51

<PAGE>



Acquisition Property, to the extent required by the Lender as a condition to its
approval of the acquisition of each Acquisition Property.

                  8.15 Financial Covenants. As of the end of each calendar
quarter during the Term, (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Indebtedness
of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis,
shall not be more than 72% of the Total Asset Value, and (ii) the aggregate NOI
of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis,
shall not be less than 130% of the aggregate Debt Service of the Borrower and
its Consolidated Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, for the twelve-month
period ending with such calendar quarter.

                  8.16 Property Management. The Borrower shall either manage
each of the Collateral Properties itself or shall cause each of the Collateral
Properties to be managed solely pursuant to Management Agreements approved by
Lender, with a Manager approved by Lender. If the Borrower enters into any such
Management Agreement(s), then (i) the Borrower shall perform and observe all of
the material terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreements to be
performed and observed by it and promptly deliver to the Lender a true copy of
each notice the Borrower gives of any default by the Manager in the performance
or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Manager
contained in a Management Agreement and any notice received by the Borrower of
any default of any of its obligations contained in the Management Agreements;
(ii) the Borrower shall not terminate the Management Agreements or (except
pursuant to the Security Documents) assign its interest therein or consent to
the assignment by the Manager of its interest therein; and (iii) upon the
Lender's request, the Borrower shall exercise each option (if any) to extend or
renew the term of the Management Agreements. In the event that (A) there shall
have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default or (B) the Debt Service
Ratio shall be less than 1.15 at the end of any calendar quarter, the Lender may
by notice to the Borrower instruct the Borrower to remove the Manager (if any)
with respect to any or all of the Collateral Properties and to designate a
property manager acceptable to the Lender, in which event the Borrower shall so
remove the Manager (if any) and so designate a manager, unless no Event of
Default is continuing and, within 20 Business Days after the giving of such
notice, the Borrower prepays the Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce the
annual Debt Service to an amount which, if substituted for the Debt Service used
to determine such Debt Service Ratio, would produce a Debt Service Ratio of not
more than 1.15. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Lender, enter into any property management agreement concerning the Collateral
Properties, or modify, terminate or waive any rights under, any Management
Agreements.

                  8.17  Environmental Matters.

                  (a) The Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, and
shall cause FSA at its sole cost and expense to, comply in all material respects
with all Environmental Laws applicable to their respective Properties and use
good faith efforts to ensure that all operations, businesses and activities
conducted thereon are in material compliance with all Environmental Laws.




                                       52

<PAGE>



                  (b) If the Borrower shall receive any notice or other
communication relating to any Property from any governmental authority
concerning any actual, alleged, suspected or threatened violation of or
liability under any Environmental Laws or any Environmental Condition, or that
any representation or warranty herein relating to Hazardous Materials is not or
is no longer accurate in any material respect, including any notice or other
communication from any governmental authority concerning any actual or
threatened Environmental Claim, then the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender,
within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice or communication, a written
description of such violation, liability, or actual or threatened event or
condition. Receipt of such notice shall not be deemed to create any obligation
on the part of the Lender to defend or otherwise respond to such notification.
The Borrower shall, or shall cause FSA to, promptly take all actions necessary
to defend such Environmental Claim or clean up or remedy such Environmental
Condition in compliance with all Environmental Laws.

                  (c) Upon the Lender's reasonable request, the Borrower shall,
at its sole cost and expense, take, or cause FSA at its sole cost and expense to
take, all actions required by law and necessary to ensure that there is no
Hazardous Material at, on or under their respective Properties in quantities or
concentrations other than those permitted by applicable Environmental Laws. The
Borrower shall reasonably promptly provide to the Lender copies of all
environmental site assessments or environmental audit reports, or updates of
such assessments or reports that are generated in connection with the above
activities. The Borrower's obligations hereunder shall arise upon the reasonable
request of the Lender, taking into account all of the circumstances, including
the conducting of tests in the past and with due regard to the likelihood of
finding Hazardous Materials on the Properties regardless of whether any
governmental authority has taken or threatened any action with respect to the
presence of any Hazardous Materials at, on or under the applicable Property. If
the Borrower fails to discharge any of its obligations hereunder, the Lender
shall have the right, but not the obligation, in its reasonable discretion, at
the Borrower's sole cost and expense, to take such reasonable actions that the
Lender reasonably deems necessary or advisable, including the removal or cleanup
of any Hazardous Materials at, on or under the Properties. The Borrower grants,
and, unless violative of the REMIC Loan, shall cause FSA to grant, the Lender
and its employees, contractors and agents an irrevocable and non-exclusive
license, upon reasonable prior notice, to enter upon the Properties to conduct
such activities in accordance with the preceding sentence. All reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by the Lender under this subsection shall be due and
payable by the Borrower on demand.

                  (d) Following and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, subject to the rights of tenants, the Borrower shall permit, and,
subject to the REMIC Loan Documents, shall cause FSA to permit, Lender to enter
upon the Properties at any reasonable time to conduct an inspection of such
Properties, to determine compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws and
to take any and all other actions that the Lender deems reasonably necessary or
advisable, including the removal or cleanup of any Hazardous Materials in
quantities or concentrations which violate applicable Environmental Laws at, on
or under the applicable Property. Following and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, the Borrower grants, and




                                       53

<PAGE>



shall cause FSA to grant, the Lender and its employees, contractors and agents
an irrevocable and nonexclusive license to enter upon the Properties and to
perform such tests on the Properties necessary to conduct such reviews and
investigations in accordance with the preceding sentence. All reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by the Lender under this subsection shall be due and
payable by the Borrower on demand.

                  (e) The Borrower shall not knowingly cause any material
violation of any applicable Environmental Laws at, on or under any of the
Properties by the Borrower, FSA or their respective agents, employees,
contractors or invitees.

                  (f) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
provisions of this Section 8.17, the Borrower agrees (i) to promptly provide
such additional information as the Lender may reasonably request regarding the
environmental condition of the Properties in Lebanon, Missouri, Graceville,
Florida, Mineral Wells, Texas and Corsicana, Texas (including, if requested,
updated environmental audit reports), and (ii) with respect to the Property in
Graceville, Florida, (A) to provide to the Lender, within 60 days after the date
hereof, evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Lender that (x) the friable
asbestos-containing material that was disclosed in the environmental report
furnished to the Lender has been removed, and (y) the test well has been
abandoned in compliance with Environmental Laws, and (B) if required by
Environmental Laws, to report to the appropriate governmental authority the
former presence of an underground storage tank.

                  Section 9. Events of Default. If one or more of the following
events (herein called "Events of Default") shall occur and be continuing:

                  (a) The Borrower shall default in the payment when due of any
         principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount payable by it
         hereunder or under the other Loan Documents; or

                  (b) (i) The Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall default
         in the payment when due of any principal of or interest on any of its
         other Indebtedness having an aggregate principal balance of $500,000 or
         more; or (ii) any event specified in any note, agreement, indenture or
         other document evidencing or relating to any Indebtedness of the
         Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries having an aggregate principal
         balance of $500,000 or more shall occur if the effect of such event is
         to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Indebtedness (or a
         trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders) to cause, such
         Indebtedness to become due, or to be involuntarily prepaid in full
         (whether by redemption, purchase or otherwise), prior to its stated
         maturity; or

                  (c) Any material representation, warranty or certification
         made or deemed made in any Loan Document (or in any modification or
         supplement thereto) by the Borrower or in any certificate furnished to
         the Lender pursuant to any other provisions



                                       54

<PAGE>



         hereof or thereof shall prove to have been false or misleading as of
         the time made or furnished in any material respect; or

                  (d) (i) The Borrower shall default in the performance of any
         of its obligations under Section 8.05, 8.06, 8.08, 8.09, 8.10, 8.12,
         8.13 or 8.16; or (ii) an Event of Default (as defined in the Mortgages)
         shall occur under any Mortgage; or (iii) the Borrower shall default
         (beyond any applicable notice and grace periods) in the performance of
         any of its obligations under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement; or
         (iv) the Borrower shall default in the performance of its obligations
         under Section 8.15 and the Borrower shall not within 5 Business Days of
         such default prepay the Loans in the amount necessary so that the
         Borrower shall be in compliance with Section 8.15; or

                  (e) The Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall admit in
         writing its inability to, or be generally unable to, pay its debts as

                  (i) An event or condition specified in Section 8.01(e) shall
         occur or exist with respect to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan and, as a
         result of such event or condition, together with all other such events
         or conditions, the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate shall incur or in
         the opinion of the Lender shall be reasonably likely to incur a
         liability to a Plan, a Multiemployer Plan or PBGC (or any combination
         of the foregoing) which is, in the determination of the Lender,
         material in relation to the consolidated financial condition, business
         operations or prospects taken as a whole of the Borrower and its
         Subsidiaries; or

                  (j) Except for expiration or termination in accordance with
         its terms or this Agreement, any of the Security Documents or the
         Environmental Indemnity Agreement shall be terminated or shall cease to
         be in full force and effect, as a result of the unpermitted action or
         inaction of the Borrower; or any of the Security Documents shall be

         liquidation of the Borrower and such proceedings (commenced by any
         Person other than the Borrower) shall continue undismissed, or an
         order, judgment or decree approving or ordering any such proceedings
         shall be entered and continue unstayed and in effect, for a period of
         60 or more consecutive days; or

                  (l) Without the Lender's prior written consent, any Property
         or any part thereof or interest therein becomes subject to any

         Liens; or

                  (m) Without the Lender's prior written consent, the leases,

         expressly permitted under this Agreement; or

                  (o) the Borrower shall default in the performance of any of
         its other obligations in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
         such default shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after
         notice thereof to the Borrower by the Lender, or such longer period
         (not to exceed 180 days) as may be reasonably necessary to remedy such
         default; provided, that the Borrower commences to remedy such default
         within said initial 30-day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes
         such remedy to completion.

THEREUPON: (i) during the continuance of an Event of Default other than one
referred to in clause (f) or (g) of this Section 9, the Lender may, by notice to
the Borrower, terminate the Commitment and/or declare the principal amount then
outstanding of, and the accrued interest on, the Loans and all other amounts
payable by the Borrower hereunder and under the Note (including any amounts
payable under Section 5.04) to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon such
amounts shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand,
protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by the Borrower; and (ii) in the case of the occurrence of an Event of
Default referred to in clause (f) or (g) of this Section 9, the Commitment shall
automatically be terminated and the principal amount then outstanding of, and
the accrued interest on, the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower
hereunder and under the Note (including any amounts payable under Section 5.04)
shall become automatically immediately due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby
expressly waived by the Borrower.

                  Section 10.  Miscellaneous.

                  10.01 Waiver. No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise
and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right,
power or privilege under this Agreement or the Note shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege under this Agreement or the Note preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The
remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.

                  10.02 Notices. All notices and other communications provided
for herein (including any modifications of, or waivers or consents under, this
Agreement) shall be given or made in writing and telecopied, mailed by certified
or registered mail or delivered by hand to the intended recipient at the
"Address for Notices" specified below its name on the signature pages hereof;
or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party
in a notice to each other party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted
by telecopier with receipt confirmed, personally delivered or, in the case of a
mailed notice, upon receipt or refusal, in each case given or addressed as
aforesaid.

                  10.03 Expenses, Etc. The Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse
the Lender for paying: (a) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender

and expenses of Kaye, Scholer, Fierman, Hays & Handler, and any local counsel to
the Lender), in connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and
delivery of this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents and the making
of the Loans hereunder (including all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the
Lender (including fees and expenses of counsel to the Lender) in connection with
the preparation, negotiation, review and execution of any documents required
pursuant to Section 6 in connection with the making of each Loan), and (ii) any
amendment, modification or waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents; (b) all reasonable costs and expenses of the Lender
(including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) in connection with any Default
and any enforcement or collection proceedings resulting therefrom including in
connection with any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization,
moratorium or other similar proceedings involving the Borrower or FSA or a
"workout" of the Loans; (c) all transfer, stamp, documentary or other similar
taxes, assessments or charges levied by any governmental or revenue authority in
respect of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other document
referred to herein or therein and all costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and
other charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or
perfection of any security interest contemplated by this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents or any document referred to therein; and (d) all taxes and
assessments, recording fees, registration taxes, title insurance premiums,
appraisal fees, costs of surveys, fees of third-party consultants and all other
out-of-pocket fees and expenses reasonably incurred by the Lender in connection
with any Collateral (including any mortgage loan servicing fees). The Borrower
hereby agrees to indemnify the Lender and its directors, officers, employees and
agents from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses,
liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (including the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel) incurred by any of them arising out of or by reason of
any claim of any Person relating to or arising out of any Loan Document or
resulting from the ownership or financing of any Collateral or any Property or
any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened
investigation or litigation or other proceedings) relating to any actual or
proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of any of the Loans (but excluding
any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by reason of
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender or any other Person to
be indemnified).

                  10.04 Amendments, Etc. Any provision of this Agreement may be
amended or modified only by any instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and
the Lender.

                  10.05 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection
with any assignment of the Loans pursuant to Section 10.06(b), the Lender may,
subject to Section 10.06(b), assign or otherwise transfer all of its rights and
remedies under this Agreement to the assignee, and such assignee shall thereupon
become vested with all of the rights and obligations in respect thereof granted
to the Lender herein or otherwise. Each representation and agreement made by the
Borrower in this Agreement shall be deemed to run to and each reference to the
Lender herein shall be deemed to refer to the Lender and all of its successors
and assigns.

                  10.06  Assignments and Participations.

                  (a) The Borrower may not assign its rights or obligations
hereunder or under the Note without the prior consent of the Lender.

                  (b) The Lender may, at its sole cost and expense, assign any
of the Loans and all or any portion of the Note without the prior consent of the
Borrower.

                  (c) The Lender may, at its sole cost and expense, sell or
agree to sell to one or more other Persons a participation in all or any part of
any Loan or Loans made or to be made and the collateral security therefor, but
such participant shall not have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or
the Note or the other Loan Documents (the participant's rights against the
Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement
(the "Participation Agreement") executed by the Lender in favor of the
participant). The Borrower shall not be required to respond to any notices or
demands of a participant, to make any payments to the participant or to pay for
any expenses payable by the Lender to the participant or incurred by the Lender
or the participant in connection with such participation. All amounts payable by
the Borrower to the Lender under Section 5 shall be determined as if the Lender
had not sold or agreed to sell any participations in such Loan and as if the
Lender were funding all of such Loan in the same way that it is funding the
portion of such Loan in which no participations have been sold. In no event
shall the Lender be obligated to the participant under the Participation
Agreement to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under the Note
or under the other Loan Documents except that the Lender may agree in the
Participation Agreement that it will not, without the consent of the
participant, agree to (i) the increase or extension of the term, or the
extension of the time or waiver of any requirement for the reduction or
termination, of the Commitment, (ii) the extension of any date fixed for the
payment of principal of or interest on the related Loan or Loans, (iii) the
reduction of any payment of principal thereof, (iv) the reduction of the rate at
which interest is payable thereon to a level below the rate at which the
participant is entitled to receive interest in respect of such participation or
(v) except as provided in the Loan Documents, release or otherwise terminate the
Lien on any of the Collateral.

                  (d) The Lender may furnish any information the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries in the possession of the Lender from time to time to
assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants).

                  10.07 Survival. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections
5.01, 5.04 and 10.03 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the
termination or expiration of the Commitment and any Release of the Collateral
pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, pursuant to
Section 2.08). In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to
be made by a notice of borrowing of any Loan, hereunder shall survive the making
of such Loan and the Lender shall not be deemed to have waived, by reason of
making such Loan, any Default or Event of Default which may arise by reason of
such representation or



                                       59

<PAGE>



warranty proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that the
Lender may have had notice or knowledge or reason to know that such
representation or warranty was false or misleading.

                  10.08 Captions. The table of contents and captions and section
headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and
are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this
Agreement.

                  10.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the
same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by
signing any such counterpart.

                  10.10 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This
Agreement and the Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the law of the State of New York. The Borrower hereby submits to the
nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York and of any New York State Court sitting in New York City
for the purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Borrower irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now
or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in
such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum.

                  10.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

                  10.12 Marshalling; Recapture. The Lender shall be under no
obligation to marshall any assets in favor of the Borrower. To the extent the
Lender receives any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower, which payment or
any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to the Borrower, or its estate,
trustee, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state
or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such
payment or repayment, the obligation or part thereof which has been paid,
reduced or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount
so repaid and shall be included within the liabilities of the Borrower to the
Lender as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.

                  10.13 Cross Collateralization. The Borrower covenants and
agrees that in the case of an Event of Default (i) the Lender shall have the
right to pursue all of its rights and remedies in one proceeding, or separately
and independently in separate proceedings from time to time, as the Lender, in
its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine from time to time, (ii) the
Lender is not required to either marshall assets, sell Collateral in any inverse
order of




                                       60

<PAGE>



alienation, or be subject to any "one action" or "election of remedies" law or
rule, (iii) the exercise by the Lender of any remedies against any one item of
Collateral will not impede the Lender from subsequently or simultaneously
exercising remedies against any other item of Collateral, and (iv) all Liens and
other rights, remedies or privileges provided to the Lender shall remain in full
force and effect until the Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the
Collateral and all Collateral has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise
realized upon in satisfaction of the Loans.

                  10.14 Severability. If any provision hereof is invalid and
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
(i) the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such
jurisdiction and shall be construed in order to carry out the intentions of the
parties hereto as nearly as may be possible and (ii) the invalidity or




                                       61

<PAGE>



unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall not effect
the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this
Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.
