                (10)    all products, accessions, rents, issues, profits,
        returns, income and proceeds of and from any and all of the foregoing
        Participant Collateral (including proceeds which constitute property of

for the benefit of the Participants and the Lessor Hedging Agreement
Counterparties all payments (except Excluded Amounts) payable by Lessee under
the Lease and all amounts payable to it by Construction Agent under the
Construction Agency Agreement.

        It is expressly agreed that anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, Lessor shall remain liable under the Operative Documents to
which it is party to perform all of the obligations assumed by it thereunder,
all in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions thereof, and
none of the Participants, the Administrative Agent or any Lessor Hedging
Agreement Counterparty shall have any obligation or liability under such
Operative Documents by reason of or arising out of the assignment hereunder, nor
shall the Participants, the Administrative Agent or any Lessor Hedging Agreement
Counterparty be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any
obligations of Lessor under or pursuant to such Operative Documents or, except
as herein expressly provided, to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to
the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by it, or present or file any
claim, or take any action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which
may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or
times.

        Lessor does hereby irrevocably constitute the Administrative Agent (on
behalf of the Participants and the Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties) the
true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Lessor, with full power (in the name of
Lessor or otherwise), other than with respect to Excepted Rights and Excluded
Amounts, (i) to ask for, require, demand, and receive, any and all monies and
claims for monies (in each case including insurance and requisition proceeds)
due and to become due under or arising out of the Operative Documents to which
Lessor is party, and all other property which now or hereafter constitutes part
of the Participant Collateral, (ii) to endorse any checks or other instruments
or orders in connection therewith and (iii) to file any claims or to take any
action or to institute any proceedings which the Participants, the
Administrative Agent or any Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparty may deem to be

necessary or advisable. Under the Lease and the Participation Agreement, Lessee
is directed to make all payments of Rent (other than Excluded Amounts) and all
other amounts which are required to be paid to Lessor pursuant to the Lease
(other than Excluded Amounts) directly to the Administrative Agent in accordance
with the provisions of Article II, for application as provided in this Security
Agreement and the Participation Agreement.

        Concurrently with the delivery hereof, Lessor is delivering to the
Administrative Agent the original executed counterpart of the Lease (to which a
chattel paper receipt is attached) which it received from Lessee.

        Each of Lessee and Lessor agrees that at any time and from time to time,
upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, each of Lessee and Lessor
will promptly and duly execute and deliver or cause to be duly executed and
delivered any and all such further instruments and documents as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary in obtaining the full
benefits of the assignment hereunder and of the rights and powers herein
granted.

        Each of Lessee and Lessor hereby warrants and represents that:

        (A)     it has not assigned or pledged, and hereby covenants that it
will not assign or pledge, so long as this Security Agreement shall remain in
effect, any of its right, title or interest hereby assigned, to anyone other
than (i) in the case of Lessee, to the Lessor and the Administrative Agent on
behalf of Lessor, and (ii) in the case of Lessor, to the Participants and the
Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties, and the Administrative Agent for the
benefit of Participants and the Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties, and

        (B)     Lessor will not, except as provided in this Security Agreement
and any other Operative Documents or except with the consent of the
Administrative Agent, (i) accept any payment from Lessee, (ii) enter into any
agreement amending or supplementing the Lease, the Participation Agreement or
any other Operative Document to which it is party, (iii) execute any waiver or
modification of, or consent under, the terms of, or (except with respect to its
Excluded Amounts and subject to its Excepted Rights) exercise any rights, power
or privileges under, the Lease, the Participation Agreement or any other
Operative Document to which it is party, or (iv) settle or compromise any claim
arising under the Lease or the Participation Agreement.

        Lessor hereby ratifies and confirms each Operative Document to which it
is party and hereby agrees that it will not take or omit to take any action, the
taking or omission of which might result in an alteration or impairment of any
such Operative Document or this Security Agreement or of any of the rights
created by any such document or the assignment hereunder.

        IT IS HEREBY COVENANTED AND AGREED by and between the parties hereto as
follows:

the Lessor, and the Participants hereby appoints Fleet National Bank as the
Administrative Agent and hereby presently transfers to the Administrative Agent
all rights of the Lessor, the Participants and the Lessor Hedging Agreement
Counterparties under this Security Agreement, including all right, title and
interest of Lessee or Lessor in and to the applicable Collateral (including all
payments payable by Lessee under the Lease), except for Excluded Amounts and
Excepted Rights. The parties agree that the Administrative Agent is holding the
original executed counterpart of the Lease, as bailee pursuant to Section 9-313
of the UCC. The Administrative Agent acknowledges that it has been notified of
the security interests granted in this Security Agreement in the original
executed counterpart of the Lease. Proceeds of the Collateral shall be
distributed by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article X of the
Participation Agreement.

        (b)     Lessee hereby acknowledges such appointment and the transfer of
rights of the Lessor to the Administrative Agent under this Security Agreement.
Lessor hereby acknowledges such appointment and the transfer of rights of the
Participants to the Administrative Agent under this Security Agreement.

                                 RENT PAYMENTS

        SECTION 2.01    Payment of Rent and Other Amounts. Pursuant to this
Security Agreement, all of the payments (other than Excluded Amounts) made by
Lessee under the Operative Documents have been assigned to the Administrative
Agent. Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid each installment of the Base Rent,
Supplemental Rent, and other amounts payable under the Lease and the Operative
Documents, (excluding, in each case, Excluded Amounts and subject, in each case,
to Excepted Rights) to the Administrative Agent. At the appropriate times, the
Conduit and Lessor shall instruct all other Persons who may come to owe to the
Participants, the Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties or Lessor amounts
pursuant to the Lease or any other Operative Document to pay such amounts
(excluding, in each case, Excluded Amounts and subject, in each case, to
Excepted Rights) and each of the Participants and Lessor shall use reasonable
efforts to cause all such Persons to make all such payments to the
Administrative Agent.

        SECTION 2.02    Payments from Collateral Only. Without impairing any of
the other rights, powers, privileges, liens or security interests of the
Participants, the Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties or the Administrative
Agent under this Security Agreement or any other Operative Document, each
Participant and the Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties agree that, except
as expressly provided in this Security Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Loan
Agreement, the Participation Agreement, the Liquidity Agreement or any other
Operative Document, (i) the obligation of Lessor to make all payments under the
Lease, and the performance by Lessor of every obligation or covenant contained
in this Security Agreement, the Participation Agreement, or any of the other
Operative Documents, shall be payable only from the income and proceeds of
Lessor to the extent included in the Participant Collateral or any other
collateral pledged by Lessor under the Security Documents and only to the extent
that Lessor shall have sufficient income or proceeds to the extent included in
the Participant Collateral to enable the Administrative Agent to make such
payments in accordance with the terms of Article X of the Participation
Agreement, and all of the statements, representations, covenants and agreements
made by Lessor contained in this Security Agreement and any agreement referred
to herein, unless expressly otherwise stated, are made and intended only for the
purpose of binding Lessor and establishing the existence of rights and remedies
which can be exercised and enforced against Lessor; therefore, anything
contained in this Security Agreement or such other agreements to the contrary
notwithstanding, no recourse shall be had with respect to this Security
Agreement or such other Operative Documents against Lessor, except to the extent
of such Participant Collateral, or against any officer, director, trustee,
servant, partner, member or direct or indirect parent or controlling person or
persons of Lessor; and (ii) none of Lessor or the Administrative Agent shall
have any personal liability for any amounts payable hereunder, under the
Participation Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents (except, in the
case of Lessor, to the extent of such Participant Collateral); provided,
however, that this Section 2.02 shall not be construed to prohibit any action or
proceeding against any party hereto for its own willful misconduct, gross
negligence, bad faith or criminal conduct for which it would otherwise be liable
(but only to the extent of the damages arising by reason thereof). Lessor hereby
acknowledges that the Administrative Agent has expressly reserved all its legal
rights and remedies against the Participant Collateral granted by Lessor,
including, without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the right, in
the event of any payment due and unpaid from Lessor under the Loan Agreement, to
foreclose upon this Security Agreement and/or to receive the proceeds from the
Participant Collateral and otherwise to enforce any other right under this
Security Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE IV

             REMEDIES OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT

        SECTION 4.01    Remedies Upon Default. If any Lease Event of Default or
Construction Agency Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing the
Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to
other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all
the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC
applies to the Collateral at issue), and the Administrative Agent may also,
without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part
thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, or at any of the
Administrative Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future
delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem
commercially reasonable. Lessor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall
be required by law, at least ten days' notice to Lessor of the time and place of
any public sale or the time after which a private sale is to be made shall
constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be
obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having
been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from
time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefore and such sale
may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so
adjourned. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to consult with legal
counsel and financial advisors in connection with the sale of the Collateral and
shall be protected in any reasonable action or forbearance taken in connection
with the advice of such counsel or advisors.

        SECTION 4.02    Remedies Cumulative. Each and every right, power and
remedy given to the Administrative Agent specifically or otherwise in this
Security Agreement shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other
right, power and remedy herein specifically given or now or hereafter existing
at law, or under the UCC, or otherwise in equity or by statute, and each and
every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise
existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as
may be deemed expedient by the Administrative Agent, and the exercise or the
beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a
waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right,
power or remedy. No delay or omission by the Administrative Agent in the
exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuance of any remedy shall
impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any
default on the part of Lessor or Lessee or to be an acquiescence therein.

        SECTION 4.03    Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the
Administrative Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right,
power or remedy under this Security Agreement by foreclosure, entry or
otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for
any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Administrative Agent,
then and in every such case the Participants, the Lessor Hedging Agreement
Counterparties, the Administrative Agent, Lessee and Lessor shall, subject to
any determination in such proceedings, be restored to their former positions and
rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and
powers of the Administrative Agent shall continue as if no such proceedings had

                  THE PARTICIPANTS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

        SECTION 5.01    No Representations or Warranties as to Property or
Documents. NONE OF THE PARTICIPANTS, THE LESSOR HEDGING AGREEMENT
COUNTERPARTIES, OR LESSOR MAKES OR SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE ANY
REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE TITLE, VALUE,
COMPLIANCE WITH SPECIFICATIONS, CONDITION, DESIGN, QUALITY, DURABILITY,
OPERATION, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR USE OR PURPOSE OF ANY PROPERTY, OR ANY
OTHER REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY PROPERTY WHATSOEVER. None
of the Participants, the Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties, or Lessor
makes or shall be deemed to have made any representations or warranty as to the
validity, legality or enforceability of this Security Agreement, the Loan
Agreements, the Notes, the Participation Agreement, the Lease or any other
Operative Document as to the correctness of any statement contained in any
thereof, except for the representations and warranties of Lessor made in Section
5.3 of the Participation Agreement. The Administrative Agent makes no
representation or warranty hereunder whatsoever.

        SECTION 5.02    Loss of Principal or Interest. The Administrative Agent
shall not be liable for any loss of principal or interest resulting from a
Permitted Investment, provided, that any payments received or applied hereunder
by the Administrative Agent shall be accounted for by the Administrative Agent
so that any portion thereof paid or applied pursuant hereto shall be
identifiable as to the source thereof.

        SECTION 5.03    Reliance; Administrative Agent; Advice of Counsel. The
Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability to anyone in acting upon any
signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate,

and believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties. The
Administrative Agent may accept a copy of a resolution of the board of directors
or general manager of any party to the Participation Agreement, certified by the
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary thereof as duly adopted and in full force
and effect, as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted
and that the same is in full force and effect. As to any fact or matter relating
to Lessee or Lessor the manner of ascertainment of which is not specifically
described herein, the Participants, the Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties,
or the Administrative Agent may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate,
signed by a duly authorized officer of Lessee or Lessor, as to such fact or
matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the
Participants, the Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties, or the Administrative
Agent for any action taken or omitted to be taken by them in good faith in
reliance thereon.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

        SECTION 6.01    Termination of Security Agreement. This Security
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the
Lease Balance and all other amounts due and payable by the Lessee under the
Operative Documents and the termination of the Commitments of the Participants,
provided, however, that this Security Agreement and the security interests
created hereby shall earlier terminate and this Security Agreement shall be of
no further force or effect upon any sale or other final disposition by the
Administrative Agent of all of the property constituting the Collateral and the
final distribution by the Administrative Agent of all monies or other property
or proceeds constituting the Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof.
Upon such termination of this Security Agreement, the Participants shall direct
the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver to or as directed in writing by
the Lessor, an appropriate instrument terminating this Security Agreement and
releasing Collateral from the assignment and pledge thereof hereunder, and the
Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver such instrument as aforesaid.
Except as aforesaid otherwise provided, this Security Agreement and the security
interests created hereby shall continue in full force and effect in accordance
with the terms hereof.

        SECTION 6.02    Sale of Collateral by Administrative Agent Is Binding.
Any sale or other conveyance of any Lessee Collateral or the Participant
Collateral by the Administrative Agent made pursuant to the terms of this
Security Agreement or the Lease shall be effective to transfer or convey all
right, title and interest of the Lessee or Lessor, as applicable, in and to such
Collateral. No purchaser or other grantee shall be required to inquire as to the
authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of such sale or conveyance or
as to the application of any sale or other proceeds with respect thereto by the
Administrative Agent.

        SECTION 6.03    Security Agreement for Benefit of the Lessor,
Participants, Lessor Hedging Agreement Counterparties and the Administrative
Agent. Except as provided by Applicable Law or otherwise expressly provided in
the Operative Documents, nothing in this Security Agreement, whether express or
implied, shall be construed to give any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or in respect of this Security Agreement to any Person other than
Lessor, the Participants, the Administrative Agent and the Lessor Hedging
Agreement Counterparties.

        SECTION 6.04    Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents,
approvals and other instruments under this Security Agreement shall be made in
accordance with the notice provisions of the Participation Agreement.

        SECTION 6.05    Severability. Any provision of this Security Agreement
which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

        SECTION 6.06    No Oral Modification or Continuing Waivers. No term or
provision of this Security Agreement may be changed, waived, discharged or
terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party or

termination is sought and then only in accordance with Section 12.5 of the
Participation Agreement.

        SECTION 6.07    Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements

Sections herein and in the table of contents hereto are for convenience of
reference only and shall not define or limit any of the terms or provisions

        SECTION 6.09    Governing Law; Counterpart Form. This Security Agreement
and the rights and obligations of the parties under this Security Agreement
shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws
of the State of New York, including Section 5-1401 of the New York General
Obligations Law, but excluding to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law
all other conflicts of law principles and choice of law rules of New York. This
Security Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original,
but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same
instrument.

        SECTION 6.10    Continuing Security Interest. This Security Agreement
creates a continuing security interest in the Collateral.
