               DBL [Drexel Burnham Lambert Incorporated], the "Bridge                 
               Loan") for all of the Subsidiaries to refinance all or                 
               substantially all of the long-term debt presently allocated            
               to the Facilities by Parent as listed on Schedule 4.10                 
               hereto, such allocated long-term debt having been evidenced            
               by promissory notes of the Subsidiaries to Parent (the                 
               "Existing Notes").  The Bridge Loan shall contain terms and            
               provisions reasonably acceptable to Buyer.                             
                         (b)  If any portion of the long-term debt related            
               to any Facility (including, without limitation, long-term              
               debt presently allocated to the Facilities by Parent) can,             
               according to its terms, be assumed by a Subsidiary, and if             
               Buyer and Parent mutually agree to have a Subsidiary assume            
               that debt, the Subsidiary shall assume that debt, the                  
               principal amount of the Existing Note related thereto shall            
               be cancelled and the Cash Purchase Price shall be reduced by           
               the principal amount of the debt so assumed.  Seller shall             
               lend the proceeds of the Bridge Loan to each of the                    
               Subsidiaries in the amount of the principal amount of the              
               Existing Notes not so cancelled in exchange for promissory             
               notes (the "New Notes") of each of the Subsidiaries having             
               terms substantially similar to the terms of the promissory             
               note underlying the Bridge Loan.  Seller shall cause each of           
               the Subsidiaries to repay the principal amount of the                  
               Existing Notes not so cancelled prior to the Closing.                  
               Parent shall use its best efforts to apply all funds paid by           
               the Subsidiaries in repayment of the Existing Notes to                 
               discharge all or substantially all of that portion of the              
               indebtedness of Parent allocated to the Subsidiaries,                  
               either, to the extent possible, by direct payment to the               
               obligees of such indebtedness or to a trustee through                  
               advance refunding of such indebtedness.  The repayment or              
               the advanced refunding of such indebtedness shall occur to             
               the extent possible as promptly as practicable following the           
               Closing.                                                               
                         (c)  If Parent shall borrow, or cause Seller or              
               the Subsidiaries to borrow any funds in addition to the                
               Bridge Loan in order to refinance any long-term debt                   
               presently allocated to the Facilities, Parent or Seller                
               shall apply the proceeds of such borrowing to such                     
               refinancing in the same manner as the proceeds of the Bridge           
               Loan, Buyer shall assume all of the obligations of Parent              
               and Seller in connection with such borrowings at the Closing           
               and the Cash Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount             
               of the debt so assumed; provided, however, that the terms of
