"Lender").

Agreement and Fixture Financing Statement dated May 13, 1999 made by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.
▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇., Trustee of HD Realty-Trust-1993 (the "Trust") in favor of Bank

and Rents dated May 13, 1999 with respect to the Property (the "Assignment of
Leases").
C. Company leases the Property from the Trust (the "Lease") which Lease
is subordinate to the Mortgage and the Assignment of Leases (collectively, the
"Mortgage Documents").
D. Lender has previously entered into or is about to enter into certain
financing transactions with Company, and to secure such financing Company has
granted to Lender a security interest in and lien upon certain of the tangible
and intangible property of Company, including, without limitation, all of
Company's cash, cash equivalents, accounts, goods, inventory, machinery,
equipment, furniture and fixtures, together with all additions, substitutions,
replacements and improvements to, and proceeds of, the foregoing (collectively,
the "Collateral"); provided, however the Collateral shall not include those
fixtures which are necessary to the operation of the building on the Property
such as HVAC systems, temperature control systems, building theft detection
systems, sprinkler systems, carpeting and premises lighting fixtures but the
Collateral shall include all trade fixtures owned by the Company.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of any financial accommodations
extended by Lender to Company at any time, and other good and valuable
consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the
parties agree as follows:
1. Bank agrees to give written notice to Lender upon the commencement
of the exercise of any of its rights under the Mortgage Documents (the "Bank
Notice"). Landlord will permit Lender to remain on the Property for a period of
up to seventy five (75) days following receipt by Lender of the Bank Notice. In
the event Lender intends to exercise such right to occupy the Property, Lender
shall (a) notify Bank of its intention to occupy the Property (the "Lender
Notice") within ten (10) days after Lender's receipt of the Bank Notice and (b)
pay to Bank an amount equal to the Minimum Monthly Rent (as set forth in the
Lease) for the period of time from the date it delivers the Lender Notice until
the date upon which it vacates the Property. During such period of occupancy by
Lender, Lender may advertise and conduct public auctions or private sales of the
Collateral at the Property, in each case without interference by Bank or
liability of Lender to Bank. Lender shall promptly repair, at Lender's expense,
any physical damage to the Property actually caused by the conduct of such
auction or sale and any removal of Collateral by or through Lender (ordinary
wear and tear excluded) and leave the Property in reasonably good condition upon
vacation of the Property. Upon vacation of the Premises, Lender shall remove
from the Property all machinery and equipment of the Company upon which Lender
has a lien. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to
remove any machinery and equipment from the Property that in any manner may
cause Lender to suffer any loss, liability, damage, expense on account of any
environmental laws.
2. Until such time as the obligations of Company to Lender are
indefeasibly paid in full, Bank waives any interest in the Collateral and agrees
not to distrain or levy upon any Collateral or to assert any lien, right of
distraint or other claim against the Collateral for any reason.
3. Bank acknowledges that the Collateral may be stored, utilized,
and/or installed at the Property and shall not be deemed a fixture or part of
the real estate but shall at all times be considered personal property, whether
or not any Collateral becomes so related to the real estate that an interest
therein would otherwise arise under applicable law.
4. Bank acknowledges that prior to Bank acquiring any possessory or
ownership interest in the Property, Lender or its representatives or invitees
may enter upon the Property at any time without any interference by Bank to
inspect, repossess, remove or otherwise deal with the Collateral, and Lender may
advertise and conduct public auctions or private sales of the Collateral at the
Property, in each case without interference by Bank or liability of Lender to
Bank. Lender shall promptly repair, at Lender's expense, any physical damage to
the Property actually caused by the conduct of such auction or sale and any
removal of Collateral by or through Lender (ordinary wear and tear excluded).
Lender shall not be liable for any diminution in value of the Property caused by
the absence of Collateral actually removed or by any necessity of replacing the
Collateral, and Lender shall have no duty or obligation to remove or dispose of
any Collateral or any other property left on the Property by Company.
