document, instrument or agreement to which any of the Borrower Parties is a
party or by which any of the Borrower Parties, the Premises or any of the
property of any of the Borrower Parties is subject or bound, except for such
breaches or defaults which, individually or in the aggregate, have not had, and

      N.    Money Laundering. (1) Borrower has taken all reasonable measures, in
accordance with all applicable Anti-Money Laundering Laws, with respect to each
holder of a direct or indirect interest in the Borrower Parties, to assure that
funds invested by such holders in the Borrower Parties are derived from legal
sources; provided, however, none of the foregoing shall apply to any Person to
the extent that such Person's interest is in or through a U.S. Publicly-Traded
Entity.

      (2) To Borrower's knowledge after making due inquiry, neither any of the
Borrower Parties nor any holder of a direct or indirect interest in the Borrower

been charged with, or convicted of, any violation of any Anti-Money Laundering
Laws, or drug trafficking, terrorist-related activities or other money
laundering predicated crimes or a violation of the BSA, (b) has been assessed
civil penalties under these or related laws, or (c) has had any of its funds
seized or forfeited in an action under these or related laws; provided, however,
none of the foregoing shall apply to any Person to the extent that such Person's
interest is in or through a U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity.

for comparable organizations and in any event as required by law, to ensure that
the Borrower Parties are and shall be in compliance with all (i) Anti-Money
Laundering Laws and (ii) OFAC Laws and Regulations.

paid, the principal, interest and all other sums to become due in respect of the
Note and the other Loan Documents in accordance with the Note and the other Loan
Documents. Borrower shall authorize Lender to establish arrangements whereby all
scheduled payments made in respect of the Obligations are transferred by
Automated Clearing House Debit initiated by Lender directly from an account at a
U.S. bank in the name of Borrower to such account as Lender may designate or as
Lender may otherwise designate.

      B. Title. Borrower shall maintain good and marketable fee simple title to
the real property comprising the Premises and title to the Personal Property,
free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, charges and other exceptions to
title, except the Permitted Exceptions. Lender shall have valid first liens upon
and security interests in the Premises, including the Personal Property,
pursuant to the Mortgage and the UCC-1 Financing Statements.

      C. Organization and Status of Borrower; Preservation of Existence. Each of
the Borrower Parties (other than individuals), as applicable, shall be validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation or
formation. Borrower shall be qualified as a foreign corporation, partnership or
limited liability company to do business in each state where the Premises are
located, and each of the Borrower Parties shall be qualified as a foreign
corporation, partnership or limited liability company in any other jurisdiction
where the failure to be qualified would reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. Borrower shall preserve its current form of
organization and shall not change its legal name, its state of formation, nor,
in one transaction or a series of related transactions, merge with or into, or
consolidate with, any other entity without providing, in each case, Lender with
30 days' prior written notice and obtaining Lender's prior written consent (to
the extent such consent is required under Section 5 of this Agreement). In
addition, Borrower shall require, and shall take reasonable measures to comply
with the requirement, that no individual or entity owning directly or indirectly
any interest in any of the Borrower Parties is an individual or entity whose
property or interests are subject to being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws
and Regulations or is otherwise in violation of any of the OFAC Laws and
Regulations; provided, however, the covenant contained in this sentence shall
not apply to any Person to the extent that such Person's interest is in or
through a U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity.

      D. Licenses and Permits. All required licenses and permits, both
governmental and private, to use and operate the Premises as a Permitted Concept
shall be maintained in full force and effect.

      E. Compliance With Laws Generally. The use and occupation of the Premises,
and the condition thereof, including, without limitation, any Restoration, shall
comply with all Applicable Regulations now or hereafter in effect, including,
without limitation, the OFAC Laws and Regulations and Anti-Money Laundering
Laws. In addition, the Borrower Parties shall comply with all Applicable
Regulations now or hereafter in effect. Without limiting the generality of the
other provisions of this Section, Borrower shall comply with the ADA, and all
regulations promulgated thereunder, as it affects the Premises.

      F. Compliance With Environmental Provisions. The covenants, obligations
and agreements of Borrower set forth in Sections 3 through 7 of the
Environmental Indemnity Agreement, together with the corresponding definitions,
are incorporated by reference into this Agreement as if stated in full in this
Agreement.

      G. Financial Statements. Within 45 days after the end of each fiscal
quarter and within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of Borrower,
Borrower shall deliver to Lender (a) complete financial statements of the
Borrower Parties including a balance sheet, profit and loss statement, statement
of cash flows and all other related schedules for the fiscal period then ended;
(b) income statements for the business at the Premises; and (c) such other
financial information as Lender may reasonably request in order to establish
compliance with the financial covenants in the Loan Documents, including,
without limitation, Section 4.J of this Agreement. All such financial statements
shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP from period to period, and shall be
certified to be accurate and complete by Borrower (or the Treasurer or other
appropriate officer of Borrower). In the event the property and business at the
Premises is ordinarily consolidated with other business for financial statement
purposes, such financial statements shall be prepared on a consolidated basis
showing separately the sales, profits and losses, assets and liabilities
pertaining to the Premises with the basis for allocation of overhead of other
charges being clearly set forth. The financial statements delivered to Lender
need not be audited, but Borrower shall deliver to Lender copies of any audited
financial statements of Borrower which may be prepared, as soon as they are
available. Borrower shall also

be delivered to Borrower by any tenants of the Premises.

      H.    Lost Note. Borrower shall, if the Note is mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen (a "Lost Note"), promptly deliver to Lender, upon receipt from Lender
of an affidavit and indemnity in a form reasonably acceptable to Lender and
Borrower stipulating that the Note has been mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen, in substitution therefor, a new promissory note containing the same
terms and conditions as the Lost Note with a notation thereon of the unpaid
principal and accrued and unpaid interest. Borrower shall provide fifteen (15)
days' prior notice to Lender before making any payments to third parties in
connection with the Lost Note.

      I.    Inspections. Borrower shall, during normal business hours (or at any
time in the event of an emergency), (1) provide Lender and Lender's officers,
employees, agents, advisors, attorneys, accountants, architects, and engineers
with access to the Premises, all drawings, plans, and specifications for the
Premises in possession of any of the Borrower Parties, all engineering reports
relating to the Premises in the possession of any of the Borrower Parties, the

operation, and maintenance of the Premises (including, without limitation, any
of the foregoing information stored in any computer files), (2) allow such
persons to make such inspections, tests, copies, and verifications as Lender
considers necessary, and (3) if Borrower is in breach of the Corporate Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio requirement set forth in the following subsection J, pay
expenses reasonably incurred by Lender from time to time in conducting such
inspections, tests, copies and verifications upon demand (such amounts to bear
interest at the Default Rate if not paid upon demand until paid).

      J.    Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. It shall be an Event of
Default hereunder if Parent Company shall fail to maintain a Corporate Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.25:1, determined as of the last day of each

Amortization expense, plus Operating Lease Expense, plus or minus other non-cash
adjustments to Net Income (if any), less increases in officer or shareholder

Borrower's income statement divided by the sum of Parent Company's aggregate
Debt service (i.e. principal and interest) plus Capital Lease payments, plus
Operating Lease expense paid in the applicable fiscal year.

      For purposes of this Section, the following terms shall be defined as set
forth below:

            "Capital Lease" shall mean all leases of any property, whether real,

      or any Affiliate of Parent Company. The term "Capital Lease" shall not
      include any operating lease.

            "Debt" shall mean with respect to Parent Company and any Affiliate

substantially as advantageous to Borrower as those which could be obtained by
Borrower in a comparable arm's length transaction with a non-Affiliate of
Borrower.

year of Borrower, Borrower shall deliver a compliance certificate to Lender in a

covenants under the Loan Documents.

property or interests are subject to being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws

      7.    SALES, TRANSFERS, ASSIGNMENTS AND PLEDGES. Without limiting the
terms and conditions of Section 3.09 of the Mortgage, Borrower agrees that
Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, sell, convey,
mortgage, grant, bargain, encumber, pledge, assign, or otherwise transfer the
Premises or any part thereof or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be
sold, conveyed, mortgaged, granted, bargained, encumbered, pledged, assigned, or
otherwise transferred, other than sales from inventory in the ordinary course of
business and the replacement of obsolete Personal Property. A sale, conveyance,
mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer within

<PAGE>

manner such equity owner or any of the Borrower Parties (collectively, "Borrower
Equity Owners") or any pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation or collateral
assignment of the equity ownership of any of the Borrower Parties or any of the
Borrower Equity Owners; (d) if any of the Borrower Parties or the Borrower
Equity Owners is not a natural person, the voluntary or involuntary sale,
conveyance or transfer of such entity's equity interests, or the creation or
issuance of new equity interests which in one or a series of transactions
results in more than 49% of the equity interests of such entity being held by
any party or parties who are not, as of the date of this Agreement, equity
owners of any of the Borrower Parties or the Borrower Equity Owners; (e) if any
of the Borrower Parties or the Borrower Equity Owners is a limited or general
partnership or limited liability company, the change, removal or resignation of
any general partner or managing member, as applicable; and (f) if any of the

interest in any of the Borrower Parties, shall be transferred, assigned or
conveyed to any individual or person whose property or interests are subject to
being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws and Regulations and/or who is in
violation of any of the OFAC Laws and Regulations, and any such transfer,
assignment or conveyance shall not be effective until the transferee has
provided written certification to Borrower and Lender that (A) the transferee or
any person who owns directly or indirectly any interest in transferee, is not an
individual or entity whose property or interests are subject to being blocked
under any of the OFAC Laws and Regulations or is otherwise in violation of the
OFAC Laws and Regulations, and (B) the transferee has taken reasonable measures
to assure than any individual or entity who owns directly or indirectly any
interest in transferee, is not an individual or entity whose property or
interests are subject to being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws and
Regulations or is otherwise in violation of the OFAC Laws and Regulations;
provided, however, the covenant contained in this sentence shall not apply to
any Person to the extent that such Person's interest is in or through a U.S.
Publicly-Traded Entity.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transfer by devise or descent or by
operation of law upon the death of a member, partner or stockholder of any of
the Borrower Parties or any general or limited partner or member thereof shall
not be deemed to be a sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance,
pledge, assignment, or transfer within the meaning of this Section.

      Lender's consent to any matter contemplated by this Section shall be
subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as Lender shall determine in its
sole discretion, including, without limitation, (i) the execution and delivery
of such modifications to the terms of the Loan Documents as Lender shall
request, and (ii) the proposed transferee having agreed to comply with all of
the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents (including any modifications
requested by Lender pursuant to clause (i) above). In addition, any such consent
shall be conditioned upon payment by Borrower to Lender of (x) a fee equal to
one percent (1%) of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note and (y)
all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such
consent, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees. Lender shall
not be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any
increased risk of default hereunder in order to declare the Obligations
immediately due and payable upon Borrower's sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant,
bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer as contemplated by this
Section. The provisions of this Section shall apply to every such sale,
conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or
transfer regardless of whether voluntary or not, or whether or not Lender has
consented to any previous sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain,
encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer pursuant to this Section.

      8. TRANSACTION CHARACTERIZATION. It is the intent of the parties hereto
that the business relationship created by the Loan Documents is solely that of
creditor and debtor and has been entered into by both parties in reliance upon
the economic and legal bargains contained in the Loan Documents. None of the
agreements contained in the Loan Documents is intended, nor shall the same be
deemed or construed, to create a partnership (either de jure or de facto)
between Borrower and Lender, to make them joint venturers, to make Borrower an
agent, legal representative, partner, subsidiary or employee of Lender, nor to
make Lender in any way responsible for the debts, obligations or losses of
Borrower.

                                       13
<PAGE>

      9.    DEFAULT AND REMEDIES. A. Each of the following shall be deemed an
event of default by Borrower (each, an "Event of Default"):

      (1)   If any representation or warranty of any of the Borrower Parties set
forth in any of the Loan Documents is false in any material respect when made,
or if any of the Borrower Parties renders any statement or account which is
false in any material respect.

      (2)   If any principal, interest or other monetary sum due under the Note,
the Mortgage or any other Loan Document is not paid within five days after the
date when due; provided, however, notwithstanding the occurrence of such an
Event of Default, Lender shall not be entitled to exercise its rights and
remedies set forth below unless and until Lender shall have given Borrower
notice thereof and a period of five days from the delivery of such notice shall
have elapsed without such Event of Default being cured.

      (3)   If Borrower fails to observe or perform any of the other covenants,
conditions, or obligations of this Agreement; provided, however, if any such
failure does not involve the payment of any monetary sum, is not willful or
intentional, does not place any rights or interest in collateral of Lender in
immediate jeopardy, and is within the reasonable power of Borrower to promptly
cure after receipt of notice thereof, all as determined by Lender in its
reasonable discretion, then such failure shall not constitute an Event of
Default hereunder, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, unless and until
Lender shall have given Borrower notice thereof and a period of 30 days shall
have elapsed, during which period Borrower may correct or cure such failure,
upon failure of which an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred
hereunder without further notice or demand of any kind being required. If such
failure cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day period, as determined by
Lender in its reasonable discretion, and Borrower is diligently pursuing a cure
of such failure, then Borrower shall have a reasonable period to cure such
failure beyond such 30-day period, which shall not exceed 90 days after
receiving notice of the failure from Lender. If Borrower shall fail to correct
or cure such failure within such 90-day period, an Event of Default shall be
deemed to have occurred hereunder without further notice or demand of any kind
being required.

      (4)   If any of the Borrower Parties becomes insolvent within the meaning
of the Code, files or notifies Lender that it intends to file a petition under
the Code, initiates a proceeding under any similar law or statute relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding up or adjustment of debts
(collectively, an "Action"), becomes the subject of either a petition under the
Code or an Action, or is not generally paying its debts as the same become due.

      (5)   If there is an "Event of Default" or a breach or default, after the
passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, under any other Loan
Document, or any of the Other Agreements.

      (6)   If a final, nonappealable judgment is rendered by a court against
any of the Borrower Parties which (i) has a material adverse effect on the
operation of the Premises as a Permitted Concept, or (ii) is in an amount
greater than $100,000.00 and not covered by insurance, and, in either case, is
not discharged or provision made for such discharge within 60 days from the date
of entry of such judgment.

      (7)   If Parent Company shall fail to maintain the Corporation Fixed
Charge Coverage ratio covenant set forth in Section 6.J.

      10.   MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, it is specifically
understood and agreed, such agreement being a primary consideration for the
execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Lender, that (1)
there shall be absolutely no personal liability on the part of any shareholder,
director, officer or employee of Lender, with respect to any of the terms,
covenants and conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (2)
Borrower waives all claims, demands and causes of action against Lender's
officers, directors, employees and agents in the event of any breach by Lender
of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents to be performed by Lender and (3) Borrower shall look solely to
the assets of Lender for the satisfaction of each and every remedy of Borrower
in the event of any breach by Lender of any of the terms, covenants and
conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to be performed by
Lender, such exculpation of liability to be absolute and without any exception
whatsoever.

      F.    Severability. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be deemed severable. If any part of this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remainder

unenforceable provision shall be reformed by such court so as to give maximum
legal effect to the intention of the parties as expressed therein.

      G.    Construction Generally. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
have been entered into by parties who are experienced in sophisticated and
complex matters similar to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and are entered into by both parties in reliance upon

party which prepared the instrument, the relative bargaining powers of the
parties or the domicile of any party. Borrower and Lender were each represented
by legal counsel competent in advising them of their obligations and liabilities
hereunder.

      H. Further Assurances. Borrower will, at its sole cost and expense, do,
execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and

for the better assuring and confirming of all of Lender's rights, powers and
remedies under the Loan Documents.

      I. Attorneys' Fees. In the event of any judicial or other adversarial
