Borrower listed on Schedule I hereto (each such Subsidiary,
individually, a "Subsidiary Pledgor" and, collectively, the
"Subsidiary Pledgors"; the Borrower and the Subsidiary Pledgors
are referred to collectively herein as the "Pledgors") and
CITICORP USA, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Citicorp"), as
collateral agent (the "Collateral Agent") for the Secured Parties
(as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below).
Reference is made to (a) the Credit Agreement dated as of October 17, 1996,
as amended and restated as of August 7, 1997 (as further amended, supplemented
or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), among the
Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the "Lenders"), The

Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have meanings
assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.
The Lenders have agreed to make Loans to the Borrower pursuant to, and upon
the terms and subject to the conditions specified in, the Credit Agreement.
Each of the Guarantors has agreed to guarantee, among other things, all the
obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement. The obligations of the
Lenders to make Loans are conditioned upon, among other things, the execution
and delivery by the Pledgors of a Pledge Agreement in the form hereof to secure
(a) the due and punctual payment by the Borrower of (i) the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest (including interest accruing during the pendency
of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding,
regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding) on the Loans,
when and as due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, upon one or more dates
set for prepayment or otherwise and (ii) all other monetary obligations,
including fees, costs, expenses and indemnities, whether primary, secondary,
direct, contingent, fixed or otherwise (including monetary obligations incurred
during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar
proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding), of
the Borrower to the Secured Parties under the Credit Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, (b) the due and punctual performance of all covenants,
agreements, obligations and liabilities of the Borrower under or pursuant to the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (c) the due and punctual payment
and performance of all the covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities of
each Guarantor under or pursuant to the Guarantee Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and (d) the due and punctual payment and performance of all
obligations of the Borrower under each Interest Rate Protection Agreement
entered into with any counterparty that was a Lender (or an Affiliate of a
Lender) at the time such Interest Rate Protection Agreement was entered into
(all the monetary and other obligations referred to in the preceding clauses (a)
through (d) being referred to collectively as the "Obligations").
Accordingly, the Pledgors and the Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and
each Secured Party (and each of their respective successors or assigns), hereby
agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Pledge. As security for the payment and performance, as the
case may be, in full of the Obligations, each Pledgor hereby transfers, grants,
bargains, sells, conveys, hypothecates, pledges, sets over and delivers unto the
Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, and hereby grants to the
Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit of the
Secured Parties, a security interest in all of such Pledgor's right, title and
interest in, to and under (a) the shares of capital stock owned by it and listed
on Schedule II hereto and any shares of capital stock of any Subsidiary obtained
in the future by such Pledgor and the certificates representing all such shares
(the
2
"Pledged Stock"); provided that the Pledged Stock shall not include (i) more
than 65% of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of any Foreign Subsidiary
if, and to the extent that, the pledge of a greater percentage would have
adverse tax consequences for the Borrower or any Subsidiaries or (ii) to the
extent that applicable law requires that a Subsidiary of the Pledgor issue
directors' qualifying shares, such qualifying shares; (b)(i) the debt securities
listed opposite the name of such Pledgor on Schedule II hereto, (ii) any debt
securities in the future issued to the Pledgor and (iii) the promissory notes
and any other instruments evidencing such debt securities (the "Pledged Debt
Securities"); (c) all other property that may be delivered to and held by the
Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof; (d) subject to Section 5, all
payments of principal or interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other
property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed, in
respect of, in exchange for or upon the conversion of the securities referred to
in clauses (a) and (b) above; (e) subject to Section 5, all rights and
privileges of such Pledgor with respect to the securities and other property
referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) above; and (f) all proceeds of any
of the foregoing (the items referred to in clauses (a) through (f) above being
collectively referred to as the "Collateral"). Upon delivery to the Collateral
Agent, (a) any stock certificates, notes or other securities now or hereafter
included in the Collateral (the "Pledged Securities") shall be accompanied by
stock powers duly executed in blank or other instruments of transfer
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and by such other instruments and documents
as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request and (b) all other property
comprising part of the Collateral shall be accompanied by proper instruments of
assignment duly executed by the applicable Pledgor and such other instruments or
documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request. Each delivery of
Pledged Securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities
theretofore and then being pledged hereunder, which schedule shall be attached
hereto as Schedule II and made a part hereof. Each schedule so delivered shall
supersede any prior schedules so delivered.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Collateral, together with all right, title,
interest, powers, privileges and preferences pertaining or incidental thereto,
unto the Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit
of the Secured Parties, forever; subject, however, to the terms, covenants and
conditions hereinafter set forth.
SECTION 2. Delivery of the Collateral. (a) Each Pledgor agrees promptly
to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent any and all Pledged
Securities, and any and all certificates or other instruments or documents
representing the Collateral.
(b) Each Pledgor will cause any Indebtedness for borrowed money owed to
such Pledgor by any person to be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note
that is pledged and delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms
thereof.
SECTION 3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each Pledgor hereby
represents, warrants and covenants, as to itself and the Collateral pledged by
it hereunder, to and with the Collateral Agent that:
(a) the Pledged Stock represents that percentage as set forth on
Schedule II of the issued and outstanding shares of each class of the
capital stock of the issuer with respect thereto;
(b) except for the security interest granted hereunder, the Pledgor
(i) is and will at all times continue to be the direct owner, beneficially
and of record, of the Pledged Securities indicated on Schedule II, (ii)
holds the same free and clear of all Liens, (iii) will make no assignment,
pledge, hypothecation or transfer of, or create or permit to exist any
security interest in or other Lien on, the Collateral, other than pursuant
hereto, and (iv) subject to Section 5, will cause any and all Collateral,
whether for value paid by the Pledgor or otherwise, to be forthwith
deposited with the Collateral Agent and pledged or assigned hereunder;
2
(c) the Pledgor (i) has the power and authority to pledge the
Collateral in the manner hereby done or contemplated and (ii) will defend
its title or interest thereto or therein against any and all Liens (other
than the Lien created by this Agreement), however arising, of all persons
whomsoever;
(d) no consent of any other person (including stockholders or
creditors of any Pledgor) and no consent or approval of any Governmental
Authority or any securities exchange was or is necessary to the validity of
the pledge effected hereby;
(e) by virtue of the execution and delivery by the Pledgors of this
Agreement, when the Pledged Securities, certificates or other documents
representing or evidencing the Collateral are delivered to the Collateral
Agent in accordance with this Agreement, the Collateral Agent will obtain a
valid and perfected first lien upon and security interest in such Pledged
Securities as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations;
(f) the pledge effected hereby is effective to vest in the Collateral
Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, the rights of the Collateral Agent
in the Collateral as set forth herein;
(g) all of the Pledged Stock has been duly authorized and validly
issued and is fully paid and nonassessable;
(h) all information set forth herein relating to the Pledged Stock is
accurate and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof; and
(i) the pledge of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Agreement does
not violate Regulation G, T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board or any
successor thereto as of the date hereof.
SECTION 4. Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. The Collateral
Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right (in its sole and
absolute discretion) to hold the Pledged Securities in its own name as pledgee,
the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent) or the name of the
Pledgors, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent.
Each Pledgor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any notices or
other communications received by it with respect to Pledged Securities
registered in the name of such Pledgor. The Collateral Agent shall at all times
have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Securities for
certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with
this Agreement.
SECTION 5. Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest, etc. (a) Unless and
until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:
(i) Each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting
and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged
Securities or any part thereof for any purpose consistent with the terms of
this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;
provided, however, that such Pledgor will not be entitled to exercise any
such right if the result thereof could materially and adversely affect the
rights of a holder of the Pledged Securities or the rights and remedies of
any of the Secured Parties under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement or
any other Loan Document or the ability of the Secured Parties to exercise
the same.
(ii) The Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to each Pledgor,
or cause to be executed and delivered to each Pledgor, all such proxies,
powers of attorney and other instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably
request for the purpose of enabling such Pledgor to exercise the voting
and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant
4
to subparagraph (i) above and to receive the cash dividends it is entitled
to receive pursuant to subparagraph (iii) below.
(iii) Each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all
cash dividends, interest and principal paid on the Pledged Securities to
the extent and only to the extent that such cash dividends, interest and
principal are permitted by, and otherwise paid in accordance with, the
terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and
applicable laws. All noncash dividends, interest and principal, and all
dividends, interest and principal paid or payable in cash or otherwise in
connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution, return of
capital, capital surplus or paid-in surplus, and all other distributions
(other than distributions referred to in the preceding sentence) made on or
in respect of the Pledged Securities, whether paid or payable in cash or
otherwise, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or
reclassification of the outstanding capital stock of the issuer of any
Pledged Securities or received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any
part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger,
consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer
may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Collateral,
and, if received by any Pledgor, shall not be commingled by such Pledgor
with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and
apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral
Agent and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same
form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
all rights of any Pledgor to dividends, interest or principal that such Pledgor
is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) above shall cease, and
all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which
shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such
dividends, interest or principal. All dividends, interest or principal received
by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 5 shall be held in
trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other
property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith delivered to the
Collateral Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary
endorsement). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by
the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be
retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the
Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be
applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 7. After all Events of
Default have been cured or waived, the Collateral Agent shall, within five
Business Days after all such Events of Default have been cured or waived, repay
to each Pledgor all cash dividends, interest or principal (without interest),
that such Pledgor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms
of paragraph (a)(iii) above and which remain in such account.
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
all rights of any Pledgor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and
powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section
5, and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this
Section 5, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the
Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to
exercise such voting and con sensual rights and powers, provided that, unless
otherwise directed by the Required Lenders, the Collateral Agent shall have the
right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of
Default to permit the Pledgors to exercise such rights. After all Events of
Default have been cured or waived, such Pledgor will have the right to exercise
the voting and consensual rights and powers that it would otherwise be entitled
to exercise pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(i) above.
SECTION 6. Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, subject to applicable regulatory and legal
requirements, the Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof,
at public or private sale or at any broker's board or on any securities
exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent
shall deem appropriate. The Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such
sale (if it deems it advisable to do
5
so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will
represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own
account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof,
and upon consummation of any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right
to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the
Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property
sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and, to
the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgors hereby waive all rights of
redemption, stay, valuation and appraisal any Pledgor now has or may at any time
in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter
enacted.
The Collateral Agent shall give a Pledgor 10 days' prior written notice
(which each Pledgor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-
504(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York or
its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent's intention to
make any sale of such Pledgor's Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a
public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a
sale at a broker's board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or
exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral,
or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange.
Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary
business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix and
state in the notice of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion
thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate
parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion)
determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any
Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that
notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent
may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause
the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place
fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time
and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any
part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral
so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid in
full by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not
incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take
up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such
Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section 6, any
Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free from any right of redemption, stay
or appraisal on the part of any Pledgor (all said rights being also hereby
waived and released), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and
may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to
it from such Pledgor as a credit against the purchase price, and it may, upon
compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property
without further accountability to such Pledgor therefor. For purposes hereof,
(a) a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall
be treated as a sale thereof, (b) the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry
out such sale pursuant to such agreement and (c) such Pledgor shall not be
entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto,
notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into
such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the
Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale
herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at
law or in equity to foreclose upon the Collateral and to sell the Collateral or
any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having
competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed
receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6 shall be deemed
to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-
504(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York or
its equivalent in other jurisdictions.
6
SECTION 7. Application of Proceeds of Sale. The proceeds of any sale of
Collateral pursuant to Section 6, as well as any Collateral consisting of cash,
shall be applied by the Collateral Agent as follows:
FIRST, to the payment of all costs and expenses incurred by the
Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent in connection with such sale
or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or
any of the Obligations, including all court costs and the reasonable fees
and expenses of their respective agents and legal counsel, the repayment of
all advances made by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent
hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any Pledgor and any
other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any
right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document;
SECOND, to the payment in full of the Obligations (the amounts so
applied to be distributed among the Secured Parties pro rata in accordance
with the amounts of the Obligations owed to them on the date of any such
distribution); and
THIRD, to the Pledgors, their successors or assigns, or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of
application of any such proceeds or cash (or any income derived from investments
made pursuant to the following sentence) in accordance with this Agreement.
Pending the application of the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral
or of any Collateral consisting of cash, the Collateral Agent may, in its
absolute discretion, invest such proceeds or cash, provided that any after-tax
income derived from any such investment shall be applied as provided in this
Section 7. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including
pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding),
the receipt of the purchase money by the Collateral Agent or of the officer
making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers
of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be
obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over
to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the
misapplication thereof.
SECTION 8. Reimbursement of Collateral Agent. (a) Each Pledgor agrees to
pay upon demand to the Collateral Agent the amount of any and all reasonable
expenses, including the reasonable fees, other charges and disbursements of its
counsel and of any experts or agents, that the Collateral Agent may incur in
connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody or
preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any
of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the
Collateral Agent hereunder or (iv) the failure by such Pledgor to perform or
observe any of the provisions hereof.
(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other
Loan Documents, each Pledgor agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent and the
Indemnitees (as defined in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement) against, and
hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, other
charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee
arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution
or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto
of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the
Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) any claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing,
whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity
shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from
the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
7
(c) If for any reason the indemnification set forth in paragraph (b) above
is unavailable to any Indemnitee or insufficient to hold it harmless, then each
Pledgor shall contribute to the amount paid or payable to such Indemnitee as a
result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such
Pledgor, on the one hand, and such Indemnitee, on the other hand, but also the
relative fault of such Pledgor, on the one hand, and such Indemnitee, on the
other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby
agreed that the relative benefits to all Pledgors, on the one hand, and all
Indemnities, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as
(i) the total value received or proposed to be received by the Borrower and the
other Pledgors in connection with the Commitments (whether or not any Loans are
made) bears to (ii) the Fees. The indemnity, reimbursement and contribution
obligations of each Pledgor under paragraph (b) above and under this paragraph
(c) shall be in addition to any liability which such Pledgor may otherwise have
to an Indemnitee and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any
successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of such Pledgor and any
Indemnitee.
(d) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee of notice of the commencement
of any Proceedings, such Indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against any Pledgor, notify the Borrower in writing of the commencement
thereof, provided that (i) the omission so to notify the Borrower will not
relieve it or any other Pledgor from any liability which it or such Pledgor may
have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such
failure and (ii) the omission so to notify the Borrower will not relieve it or
any other Pledgor from any liability which it or such Pledgor may have to an
Indemnitee otherwise than on account of the indemnity agreement provided for
hereunder. In case any such Proceedings are brought against any Indemnitee and
it notifies the Borrower of the commencement thereof, the Borrower will be
entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may elect by written
notice delivered to such Indemnitee, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee, provided that, if the defendants in
any such Proceedings include both such Indemnitee and the Borrower or any other
Pledgor and such Indemnitee shall have concluded that there may be legal
defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those
available to the Borrower or such Pledgor, such Indemnitee shall have the right
to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise
participate in the defense of such Proceedings on behalf of such Indemnitee.
Upon receipt of notice from the Borrower to such Indemnitee of its election so
to assume the defense of such Proceedings and approval by such Indemnitee of
counsel, neither the Borrower nor any other Pledgor shall be liable to such
Indemnitee for expenses incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with the
defense thereof (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such
Indemnitee shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion
of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence
(it being understood, however, that neither the Borrower nor any other Pledgor
shall be liable for the reasonable expenses of more than one separate counsel
(plus no more than one separate local counsel in any jurisdiction), approved by
the Agents, representing the Indemnitees who are parties to such Proceedings),
(ii) the Borrower shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such Indemnitee to represent such Indemnitee within a reasonable time after
notice of commencement of the Proceedings, (iii) the Borrower shall have
authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnitee or (iv) the
use of counsel chosen by the Borrower to represent such Indemnitee would present
such counsel with a conflict of interest; and except that, if clause (i) or
(iii) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel
referred to in such clause (i) or (iii).
(e) Any amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional
Obligations secured hereby and by the other Security Documents. The provisions
of this Section 8 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless
of the termination of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or
any other Secured Party. All amounts
8
due under this Section 8 shall be payable on written demand therefor and shall
bear interest at the rate specified in Section 2.07 of the Credit Agreement.
SECTION 9. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Pledgor
hereby appoints the Collateral Agent the attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor for
the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any
action and executing any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary
or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable
and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Collateral Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution either in
the Collateral Agent's name or in the name of such Pledgor, to ask for, demand,
▇▇▇ for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all moneys due or to
become due under and by virtue of any Collateral, to endorse checks, drafts,
orders and other instruments for the payment of money payable to the Pledgor
representing any interest or dividend or other distribution payable in respect
of the Collateral or any part thereof or on account thereof and to give full
discharge for the same, to settle, compromise, prosecute or defend any action,
claim or proceeding with respect thereto, and to sell, assign, endorse, pledge,
transfer and to make any agreement respecting, or otherwise deal with, the same;
provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring
or obligating the Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry
as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent,
or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to
the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect
thereof or any property covered thereby. The Collateral Agent and the other
Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a
result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they
nor their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any
Pledgor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross
negligence or wilful misconduct.
SECTION 10. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the
Collateral Agent in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or
power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or
power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder
and of the other Secured Parties under the other Loan Documents are cumulative
and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.
No waiver of any provisions of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any
Pledgor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No
notice or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle such Pledgor to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended
or modified except pursuant to a written agreement entered into between the
Collateral Agent and the Pledgor or Pledgors with respect to which such waiver,
amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in
accordance with Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement.
SECTION 11. Securities Act, etc. In view of the position of the Pledgors
in relation to the Pledged Securities, or because of other current or future
circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or
hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in
purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in
effect being called the "Federal Securities Laws") with respect to any
disposition of the Pledged Securities permitted hereunder. Each Pledgor
understands that compliance with the Federal Securities Laws might very strictly
limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the Collateral Agent were
to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Securities, and might
also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee
of any Pledged Securities could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be
other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Collateral Agent in any
attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged Securities under applicable
Blue Sky or other state
9
securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Each Pledgor
recognizes that in light of such restrictions and limitations the Collateral
Agent may, with respect to any sale of the Pledged Securities, limit the
purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged
Securities for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that in
light of such restrictions and limitations, the Collateral Agent, in its sole
and absolute discretion, (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a
registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Securities or
part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws and (b) may
approach and negotiate with a single potential purchaser to effect such sale.
Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices
and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public
sale without such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Collateral
Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of
the Pledged Securities at a price that the Collateral Agent, in its sole and
absolute discretion, may in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ reasonable under the circumstances,
notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have
been realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid or
if more than a single purchaser were approached. The provisions of this Section
11 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon
which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which
the Collateral Agent sells.
SECTION 12. Registration, etc. Each Pledgor agrees that, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, if for
any reason the Collateral Agent desires to sell any of the Pledged Securities of
the Borrower at a public sale, it will, at any time and from time to time, upon
the written request of the Collateral Agent, use its best efforts to take or to
cause the issuer of such Pledged Securities to take such action and prepare,
distribute and/or file such documents, as are required or advisable in the
reasonable opinion of counsel for the Collateral Agent to permit the public sale
of such Pledged Securities. Each Pledgor further agrees to indemnify, defend
and hold harmless the Collateral Agent, each other Secured Party, any
underwriter and their respective officers, directors, affiliates and controlling
persons from and against all loss, liability, expenses, costs of counsel
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses to the Collateral
Agent of legal counsel), and claims (including the costs of investigation) that
they may incur insofar as such loss, liability, expense or claim arises out of
or is based upon any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or in any notification
or offering circular, or arises out of or is based upon any alleged omission to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements in any thereof not misleading, except insofar as the same may have
been caused by any untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished
in writing to such Pledgor or the issuer of such Pledged Securities by the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party expressly for use therein. Each
Pledgor further agrees, upon such written request referred to above, to use its
best efforts to qualify, file or register, or cause the issuer of such Pledged
Securities to qualify, file or register, any of the Pledged Securities under the
Blue Sky or other securities laws of such states as may be requested by the
Collateral Agent and keep effective, or cause to be kept effective, all such
qualifications, filings or registrations. Each Pledgor will bear all costs and
expenses of carrying out its obligations under this Section 12. Each Pledgor
acknowledges that there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by it to comply
with the provisions of this Section 12 and that such failure would not be
adequately compensable in damages, and therefore agrees that its agreements
contained in this Section 12 may be specifically enforced.
SECTION 13. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Collateral
Agent hereunder, the grant of a security interest in the Collateral and all
obligations of each Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional
irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit
Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement with respect to any of the
Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the
foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver
of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing,
(c) any exchange, release or
10
nonperfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of
or consent to or departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Obligations
or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor in respect of the Obligations or in
respect of this Agreement (other than the indefeasible payment in full of all
the Obligations).
SECTION 14. Termination or Release. (a) This Agreement and the security
interests granted hereby shall terminate when all the Obligations have been
indefeasibly paid in full and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend
under the Credit Agreement.
(b) Upon any sale or other transfer by any Pledgor of any Collateral that
is permitted under the Credit Agreement to any person that is not a Pledgor, or,
upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security
interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.08(b) of the
Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be
automatically released.
(c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph
(a) or (b), the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Pledgor, at
such Pledgor's expense, all documents that such Pledgor shall reasonably request
to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of
documents pursuant to this Section 14 shall be without recourse to or warranty
by the Collateral Agent.
SECTION 15. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in
writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All
communications and notices hereunder to any Subsidiary Pledgor shall be given to
it at the address for notices set forth on Schedule I, with a copy to the
Borrower.
SECTION 16. Further Assurances. Each Pledgor agrees to do such further
acts and things, and to execute and deliver such additional conveyances,
assignments, agreements and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may at any time
reasonably request in connection with the administration and enforcement of this
Agreement or with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or in order
better to assure and confirm unto the Collateral Agent its rights and remedies
hereunder.
SECTION 17. Binding Effect; Several Agreement; Assignments. Whenever in
this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be
deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants,
promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Pledgor that are contained in
this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of its successors and
assigns. This Agreement shall become effective when a counterpart hereof
executed on behalf of any Pledgor shall have been delivered to the Collateral
Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the
Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Pledgor and the
Collateral Agent and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to
the benefit of such Pledgor, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties,
and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Pledgor shall have
the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein or in the
Collateral (and any such attempted assignment shall be void), except as
expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 18. Survival of Agreement; Severability. (a) All covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties made in writing by each Pledgor
herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in
connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall
be considered to have been relied upon by the Collateral Agent and the other
Secured Parties and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans,
regardless of any investigation made by the Secured Parties or on their behalf,
and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any
accrued interest on any Loan or any other fee or amount payable under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or as long as the
Commitments have not been terminated.
11
(b) In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood
that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall
not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other
jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the
economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provisions.
SECTION 19. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
SECTION 20. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when
taken together, shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective
as provided in Section 17. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature
page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
SECTION 21. Rules of Interpretation. The rules of interpretation
specified in Section 1.02 of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable to this
Agreement. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only,
are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to
be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement.
SECTION 22. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each
Pledgor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or
Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined
in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal
court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Collateral Agent or
any other Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against any Pledgor or
its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(b) Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may
now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any
New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of
process in the manner provided for notices in Section 15. Nothing in this
Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process
in any other manner permitted by law.
SECTION 23. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER
OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE,
12
AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE,
THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE
BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
SECTION 24. Additional Pledgors. Pursuant to Section 5.16 of the Credit
Agreement, each Domestic Subsidiary (other than ▇▇▇▇▇ or Leasco) and, to the
extent that no adverse tax consequences to the Borrower or any Subsidiary would
result, Foreign Subsidiary, that was not in existence or not such a Subsidiary
on the date of the Credit Agreement is required to enter in this Agreement as a
Subsidiary Pledgor upon becoming such a Subsidiary. Upon execution and delivery
by the Collateral Agent and any such Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of
Annex 1, such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Pledgor hereunder with the
same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Pledgor herein.
The execution and delivery of such instrument shall not require the consent of
any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder
shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new
Subsidiary Pledgor as a party to this Agreement.

SUPPLEMENT NO. [ ] dated as of [ ], to the
PLEDGE AGREEMENT dated as of October 17, 1996, as amended and
restated as of August 7, 1997, among RYDER TRS, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the"Borrower"), each Subsidiary of the Borrower
listed on Schedule I thereto (each such Subsidiary, individually,
a "Subsidiary Pledgor" and, collectively, the "Subsidiary
Pledgors"; the Borrower and the Subsidiary Pledgors are referred
to collectively herein as the "Pledgors") and CITICORP USA, INC.,
a Delaware corporation ("Citicorp"), as collateral agent (the
"Collateral Agent") for the Secured Parties (as defined in the
Credit Agreement referred to below).
A. Reference is made to (a) the Credit Agreement dated as of October 17,
1996, as amended and restated as of August 7, 1997 (as further amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"),
among the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the "Lenders"),
The Chase Manhattan Bank, as documentation agent, and Citicorp, as
administrative agent for the Lenders, and as Collateral Agent, and (b) the
Guarantee Agreement dated as of October 17, 1996, as amended and restated as of

B. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.
C. The Pledgors have entered into the Pledge Agreement in order to induce
the Lenders to make Loans. Pursuant to Section 5.16 of the Credit Agreement,
each Domestic Subsidiary (other than ▇▇▇▇▇ or Leasco) and, to the extent that no
adverse tax consequences to the Borrower or any Subsidiary would result, Foreign
Subsidiary, that was not in existence or not such a Subsidiary on the date of
the Credit Agreement is required to enter in this Agreement as a Subsidiary
Pledgor upon becoming such a Subsidiary. Section 24 of the Pledge Agreement
provides that any such Subsidiary may become a Pledgor under the Pledge
Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this
Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary (the "New Pledgor") is executing this
Supplement in accordance with such requirements of the Credit Agreement to
become a Subsidiary Pledgor under the Pledge Agreement in order to induce the
Lenders to make additional Loans and as consideration for Loans previously made.
Accordingly, the Collateral Agent and the New Pledgor agree as follows:
SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 24 of the Pledge Agreement, the New
Pledgor by its signature below becomes a Subsidiary Pledgor under the Pledge
Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a
Subsidiary Pledgor and the New Pledgor hereby agrees (a) to all the terms and
provisions of the Pledge Agreement applicable to it as a Subsidiary Pledgor
there under and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and
warranties made by it as a Subsidiary Pledgor thereunder are true and correct on
and as of the date hereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Pledgor, as
security for the payment and performance in full of the Obligations (as defined
in the Pledge Agreement), does hereby create and grant to the Collateral Agent,
its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, their
successors and assigns, a security interest in and lien on all of the New
Pledgor's right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (as defined in the
Pledge Agreement) of the New Pledgor. Each reference to a "Subsidiary Pledgor"
or a "Pledgor" in the Pledge Agreement shall be deemed to include the New
Pledgor. The Pledge Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
2
SECTION 2. The New Pledgor represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent
and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by it and consti tutes its legal, valid and binding
obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall
constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the
Collateral Agent shall have received counterparts of this Supplement that, when
taken together, bear the signatures of the New Pledgor and the Collateral Agent.
Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile
transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart
of this Supplement.
SECTION 4. The New Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that set forth
on Schedule I attached hereto is a true and correct schedule of all its Pledged
Securities.
SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Pledge Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect.
SECTION 6. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
SECTION 7. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,
neither party hereto shall be required to comply with such provision for so long
as such provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, but the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein and in the Pledge Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired.
The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the
invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic
effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provisions.
SECTION 8. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing
and given as provided in Section 15 of the Pledge Agreement. All communications
and notices hereunder to the New Pledgor shall be given to it at the address set
forth under its signature hereto.

its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement,
