endorsement, where necessary, or duly executed instruments of transfer or
assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral
Trustee, together, in respect of any Additional Pledged Collateral, with a

hold such money or property in trust for the Collateral Trustee, segregated from
other funds of such Grantor, as additional security for the Secured Obligations.
(c) Except as provided in Article V, such Grantor will be entitled to
exercise all voting, consent and corporate rights with respect to the Pledged
Collateral; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast, consent given or
right exercised or other action taken by such Grantor which would impair the
Collateral or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any
provision of the Credit Agreement, the Intercompany Note, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or which would, without prior notice to the Collateral
Trustee, enable or permit any issuer of Pledged Collateral that is a Subsidiary
of any Grantor to issue any stock or other equity securities of any nature or to
issue any other securities convertible into or granting the right to purchase or
exchange for any stock or other equity securities of any nature of any issuer of
Pledged Collateral, other than securities issued by FINOVA Mezzanine Capital
Inc. pursuant to the Reorganization Plan.

any Person other than the Collateral Trustee.
(e) In the case of each Grantor which is an issuer of Pledged Collateral,
such Grantor agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the
Pledged Collateral issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such
terms are applicable to it. In the case of each Grantor which is a partner in a
Partnership, such Grantor hereby consents to the extent required by the
applicable Partnership Agreement to the pledge by each other Grantor, pursuant
to the terms hereof, of the Pledged Partnership Interests in such Partnership
and to the transfer of such Pledged Partnership Interests to the Collateral
Trustee or its nominee and to the substitution of the Collateral Trustee or its
nominee as a substituted partner in such Partnership with all the rights, powers
and duties of a general partner or a limited partner, as the case may be. In the
case of each Grantor which is a member of an LLC, such Grantor hereby consents
to the extent required by the applicable LLC Agreement to the pledge by each
other Grantor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the Pledged LLC Interests in
such LLC and to the transfer of such Pledged LLC Interests to the Collateral
Trustee or its nominee and to the substitution of the Collateral Trustee or its
nominee as a substituted member of the LLC with all the rights, powers and
duties of a member of the LLC in question.
(f) Such Grantor will not agree to any amendment of an LLC Agreement or
Partnership Agreement that in any way adversely affects the perfection of the
security interest of the Collateral Trustee in the Pledged Partnership Interests

amendment that would cause the membership interest or partnership interest of
such Grantor to be a security under Section 8-103 of the UCC.

or Approved Deposit Bank shall, after the date hereof, terminate an agreement
with respect to the maintenance of a Control Account or Approved Deposit Account
for any reason, (ii) the Collateral Trustee shall demand such termination as a
result of the failure of an Approved Securities Intermediary or Approved Deposit
Account Bank to comply with the terms of the applicable Control Account
Agreement or Deposit Account Control Agreement, or (iii) the Collateral Trustee
determines in its sole discretion that the financial condition of an Approved
Securities Intermediary or Approved Deposit Account Bank, as the case may be,
has materially deteriorated, such Grantor agrees to notify all of its obligors
that were making payments to such terminated Control Account or Approved Deposit
Account, as the case may be, to make all future payments to another Control
Account or Approved Deposit Account, as the case may be.

ARTICLE V. REMEDIAL PROVISIONS
Section 5.1 Code and Other Remedies. During the continuance of an Event of
-----------------------
Default, the Collateral Trustee may exercise, in addition to all other rights
and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or
agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all
rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable
law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Trustee,
without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest,
advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred
to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which
demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such
circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the
Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give
option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the
Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one
or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's
board or office of the Collateral Trustee or any Secured Party or elsewhere upon
such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may
deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of
any credit risk. The Collateral Trustee shall have the right upon any such
public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private
sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free
of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is
hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Collateral
Trustee's request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the
Collateral Trustee at places which the Collateral Trustee shall reasonably
select, whether at such Grantor's premises or elsewhere. The Collateral Trustee
shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section
5.1 in the manner set forth in the
16
Collateral Trust Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each
Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the
Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by
them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other
disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed
reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other
disposition.
Section 5.2 Accounts and Payments in Respect of General Intangibles.
-------------------------------------------------------
(a) If required by the Collateral Trustee at any time during the
continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Accounts or payments in
respect of General Intangibles, when collected by any Grantor, shall be
forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by such
Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the
Collateral Trustee if required, in a Cash Collateral Account. Until so turned
over, such payments shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral
Trustee, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of
Proceeds of Accounts and payments in respect of General Intangibles shall be
accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source
of the payments included in the deposit.
(b) At the Collateral Trustee's request, during the continuance of an Event
of Default, each Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Trustee all original
and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions
which gave rise to the Accounts or payments in respect of General Intangibles,
including all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts.
(c) The Collateral Trustee may, without notice, at any time during the
continuance of an Event of Default, limit or terminate the authority of a
Grantor to collect its Accounts or amounts due under General Intangibles or any
thereof.
(d) The Collateral Trustee in its own name or in the name of others may at
any time during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with Account
Debtors to verify with them to the Collateral Trustee's satisfaction the
existence, amount and terms of any Accounts or amounts due under any General
Intangibles.
(e) Upon the request of the Collateral Trustee at any time during the
continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify Account Debtors
that the Accounts or General Intangibles have been collaterally assigned to the
Collateral Trustee and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly
to the Collateral Trustee. In addition, the Collateral Trustee may at any time
during the continuance of an Event of Default enforce such Grantor's rights
against such Account Debtors and obligors of General Intangibles.
(f) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall
remain liable under each of the Accounts and payments in respect of General
Intangibles to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be
observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any
agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Collateral Trustee nor any other
Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any agreement giving
rise to an Account or a payment in respect of a General Intangible by reason of
or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Trustee nor
any other Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the
Collateral Trustee nor any other Secured Party be obligated in any manner to
perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any agreement
giving rise to an Account or a payment in respect of a General Intangible, to
make
17
any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any
payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party
thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any
performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been
assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.
Section 5.3 Pledged Collateral.
------------------
(a) During the continuance of an Event of Default, upon notice by the
Collateral Trustee to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Collateral
Trustee shall have the right to receive any and all Proceeds of the Pledged
Collateral and make application thereof to the Obligations in the order set
forth in the Collateral Trust Agreement, and (ii) the Collateral Trustee or its
nominee may exercise (A) all voting, consent, corporate and other rights
pertaining to the Pledged Collateral at any meeting of shareholders, partners or
members, as the case may be, of the relevant issuer or issuers of Pledged
Collateral or otherwise and (B) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and
subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the

to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Collateral upon the
merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental
change in the corporate structure of any issuer of Pledged Securities, the right
to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Collateral with any committee,
depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms
and conditions as the Collateral Trustee may determine), all without liability
except to account for property actually received by it, but the Collateral
Trustee shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege
or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so
doing.
(b) In order to permit the Collateral Trustee to exercise the voting and
other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and
to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to
receive hereunder, (i) each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause
to be executed and delivered) to the Collateral Trustee all such proxies,
dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Collateral Trustee may from
time to time reasonably request and (ii) without limiting the effect of clause
(i) above, such Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Trustee an irrevocable
proxy to vote all or any part of the Pledged Collateral and to exercise all
other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of the Pledged
Collateral would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents
of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, calling special
meetings of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, and voting at
such meetings), which proxy shall be effective, automatically and without the
necessity of any action (including any transfer of any Pledged Collateral on the
record books of the issuer thereof) by any other person (including the issuer of
such Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof) during the continuance
of an Event of Default and which proxy shall only terminate upon the payment in
full of the Secured Obligations.
(c) Each Grantor hereby expressly authorizes and instructs each issuer of
any Pledged Collateral pledged hereunder by such Grantor to (i) comply with any
instruction received by it from the Collateral Trustee in writing that (A)
states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) is
otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or
further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that such issuer
shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly
permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the
Pledged Collateral directly to the Collateral Trustee.
18
Section 5.4 Proceeds to be Turned Over To Collateral Trustee. All Proceeds
------------------------------------------------
received by the Collateral Trustee hereunder shall be held by the Collateral
Trustee in a Cash Collateral Account. All Proceeds while held by the Collateral
Trustee in a Cash Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the
Collateral Trustee) shall continue to be held as collateral security for the
Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as
provided in the Collateral Trust Agreement.
Section 5.5 Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency
----------
if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are
insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of
any attorneys employed by the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party to
collect such deficiency.
Section 5.6 Execution of Financing Statements. Each Grantor authorizes the
---------------------------------
Collateral Trustee to file or record financing statements and other filing or
recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the
signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Collateral
Trustee reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of
the Collateral Trustee under this Agreement.

---------------------------------------------------
the Collateral Trustee nor any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by a
written instrument pursuant to Section 6.1), delay, indulgence, omission or

acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any
delay in exercising, on the part of the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured
Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Collateral Trustee or

or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided
by law.

kind whatsoever and are not part of the agreement of the parties hereto.

----------------
Documents represents the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

any Lien or other Collateral securing such liability shall be and remain in full
force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made or, if prior
thereto the Lien granted hereby or other Collateral securing such liability
hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of such cancellation
or surrender), such Lien or other Collateral shall be reinstated in full force
and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish,
release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect any Lien or other Collateral
securing the obligations of any Grantor in respect of the amount of such
payment.
Section 6.12 Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Collateral

CONTROL ACCOUNT AGREEMENT
[Name and Address

[Date]
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned ___________________ (the "Pledgor") together with certain
of its affiliates are party to a Pledge and Security Agreement dated August 21,
2001 in favor of Wilmington Trust Company, as Collateral Trustee for the Secured
Parties referred to therein (the "Pledgee," and such agreement the "Pledge and
Security Agreement") pursuant to which a security interest is granted by the
Pledgor in all present and future Assets (hereinafter defined) in Account No.
_______ of the Pledgor (the "Pledge").
In connection therewith, the Pledgor hereby instructs you to:
1. maintain the Account, as "_________ - ________ Control Account";
2. hold in the Account the assets, including all financial assets,
securities, security entitlements and all other property and rights
now or hereafter received in such Account (collectively, the
"Assets");
3. provide to the Pledgor, with a duplicate copy to the Pledgee, a
monthly statement of Assets; and
4. until such a time as Pledgee shall give you written notice that the
Pledgor's rights under this sentence have been terminated (an
"Activation Notice") (upon which notice you may rely exclusively), the
Pledgor acting through an authorized officer may (a) exercise any
voting rights that it may have with respect to any of the Assets, (b)
give instructions to enter into purchase or sale transactions in the
Account and (c) withdraw and receive for its own use all regularly
scheduled interest and dividends paid with respect to the Assets and
all cash proceeds of any sale of Assets ("Permitted Withdrawals");
provided, that, with respect to any transaction that is not a
Permitted Withdrawal (each, a "Non-Conforming Transaction"), unless
the Pledgee has consented to such Non-Conforming Transaction and you
have received written notice of such consent, you shall not deliver
cash and/or securities, or proceeds from the sale of, or distributions
on, securities out of the Account to the Pledgor or to any other
person or entity in respect of such Non-Conforming Transaction unless
you are required by law or by court order to do so; the Pledgor hereby
agrees it shall not to instruct you to execute any transactions that
would not be Permitted Withdrawals. Following delivery of an
Activation Notice, you shall honor only the instructions or
entitlement orders in regard to or in connection with the Account
given by an authorized officer of the Pledgee, until such time as you
receive written notice from the Pledgee that the Activation Notice is
rescinded (a "Rescission Notice").
A2-1
By your signature below, you agree that you will comply with the
entitlement orders and instructions of an Authorized Officer of the Pledgee
(including without limitation any instructions with respect to sales, trades,
transfers and withdrawals of cash or other of the Assets) without the consent of
the Pledgor or any other person (it being understood and agreed by the Pledgor
that you shall have no duty or obligation whatsoever of any kind or character to
have knowledge of the terms of the Pledge and Security Agreement or to determine
whether or not an event of default exists thereunder). The Pledgor hereby agrees
to indemnify and hold you harmless, as well as your affiliates, officers and
employees from and against any and all claims, causes of action, liabilities,
lawsuits, demands and/or damages, including any and all court costs and
reasonable attorney's fees, that may result by reason of your complying with
such instructions of the Pledgee from and after receipt of an Activation Notice
until subsequent receipt of a Rescission Notice. In the event that you are sued
or become involved in litigation as a result of complying with the above stated
written instructions, the Pledgor and the Pledgee agree that you shall be
entitled to charge all reasonable costs and fees you incur in connection with
such litigation to the Assets in the Account and to withdraw such sums as the
costs and charges accrue.
For the purpose of this Agreement, the term "Authorized Officer of Pledgor"
and "Authorized Officer of Pledgee" shall refer in the singular to (i) with
respect to the Pledgor, any Person who you are authorized to accept instruction
from in writing by the Pledgor from time to time (a copy of which instruction
shall be provided by the Pledgor to the Pledgee contemporaneously with such
authorization) and (ii) with respect to the Pledgee, any Person who is a [vice
president or managing director] of the Pledgee. In the event that the Pledgor
shall find it advisable to designate a replacement of any of its Authorized
Officers from time to time, written notice of any such replacement shall be
given to you and the Pledgee.
Except with respect to the obligations and duties as set forth herein, this
Agreement shall not impose or create any obligations or duties upon you greater
than or in addition to the customary and usual obligations and duties of yours
to the Pledgor.
As long as the Assets are pledged to the Pledgee: (i) you will not invade
the Assets to cover margin debits or calls, if any, in any other accounts of the
Pledgor and (ii) you agree that, except for liens resulting from customary
commissions, fees or charges based upon transactions in the Account, you
subordinate in favor of the Pledgee any security interest, lien or right of
setoff that you may have. You acknowledge that you have not received notice of
any other security interest in the Account or the Assets. In the event any such
notice is received, you will promptly notify the Pledgee. The Pledgor hereby
represents that the Assets are free and clear of any lien or encumbrances other
than the lien in favor of the Pledgor resulting from the security interest
granted to the Pledgee and agrees that, with the exception of the security
interest granted to the Pledgee, no lien or encumbrance will be placed by it on
the Assets without the express written consent of the Pledgee.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and you, and the
rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by, and construed
and interpreted in accordance with, and the law of your jurisdiction for the
purposes of Section 8-110 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State
of New York (the "UCC" shall be the law of the State of New York).
You will treat all property at any time held by you in the Account as
financial assets within the meaning of the UCC. You acknowledge that this
Agreement constitutes written notification to you, pursuant to the UCC and any
applicable federal regulations for the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, of the
Pledgee's security interest in the Assets. The Pledgor,
A2-2
Pledgee and you are entering into this Agreement to provide for the Pledgee's
control of the Assets and to confirm the first priority of the Pledgee's
security interest in the Assets. The Pledgor and the Pledgee intend that you
shall be a "securities intermediary" with respect to the Assets on deposit from
time to time in the Account for purposes of Article 8 of the UCC.
If any term or provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed in all
respects as if the invalid or unenforceable term or provision were omitted. This
Agreement may not be altered or amended in any manner without the express
written consent of the Pledgor, the Pledgee and you. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, all of which shall constitute one
original agreement.
This Agreement may be terminated by you upon 30 days' prior written notice
to the Pledgor and the Pledgee. Upon expiration of such 30-day period, you shall
be under no further obligation except to hold the Assets in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, pending receipt of written instructions from the
Pledgor and the Pledgee, jointly, regarding the further disposition of the
pledged Assets.
The Pledgor acknowledges that this Agreement supplements any existing
agreements of the Pledgor with you regarding the account and, except as
expressly provided herein, is in no way intended to abridge any rights that you
might otherwise have.
A2-3
In witness whereof, the Pledgor and the Pledgee have caused this Agreement
to be executed by their duly authorized officers all as of the date first above
written.
