Section 12 of the Partnership Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: "12. ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS AND LOSSES. 12.1 NET INCOME. For each fiscal year of the Partnership, Net Income (as hereinafter defined) shall be allocated as follows: (a) Net Income recognized by the Partnership with respect to a Disposition or an Extraordinary Dividend shall be allocated as follows and in the following order of priority: (i) First, to the General Partners in accordance with their respective Residual Percentage Interests until the excess of (x) the aggregate amount of Net Income allocated to each of them for the current and all prior years pursuant to this Section 12.1(a)(i) over (y) the aggregate amount of Net Loss allocated to each of them for the current and all prior years pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(ii) equals $2,805,786; and (ii) Thereafter, to the Partners in accordance with their respective Disposition Percentage Interests; and (b) Any other Net Income shall be allocated to the General Partners in accordance with their respective Residual Percentage Interests. 12.2 NET LOSS. For each fiscal year of the Partnership, Net Loss (as hereinafter defined) shall be allocated as follows: (a) Net Loss recognized by the Partnership with respect to a Disposition or an Extraordinary Dividend shall be allocated as follows and in the following order of priority: (i) First, to the Partners, in accordance with their respective Disposition Percentage Interests, until the Limited Partner's Capital Account balance is reduced to zero; and (ii) Thereafter, to the General Partners in accordance with their Residual Percentage Interests; and (b) Any other Net Loss shall be allocated to the General Partners in accordance with their respective Residual Percentage Interests. 12.3 SPECIAL ALLOCATION. Income, gain, loss or deductions of the Partnership shall, solely for income tax purposes, be allocated among the Partners in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and the Internal Revenue Service regulations promulgated thereunder so as to take account of any difference between the adjusted basis to the Partnership of any asset for federal income tax purposes and its Book Basis. 12.4 DEFINITIONS. "Disposition Percentage Interest" means, for each Partner, the respective percentage set forth below: Peltz 63-1/3% May 31-2/3% Kalvaria 5% "Residual Percentage Interest" means, for each Partner, the respective percentage set forth below: Peltz 66-2/3% May 33-1/3% Kalvaria 0% "Disposition Proceeds" means the excess, if any, of (i) the amount received by the Partnership in connection with a Disposition of part or all of the Triarc Shares or any non-cash proceeds received upon any such Disposition over (ii) to the extent not otherwise taken into account in clause (i), the aggregate amount of all fees, expenses and other costs paid or payable by the Partnership in connection with each Disposition, but only to the extent that such amounts have not been used to reduce Disposition Proceeds with respect to any other Disposition. If any proceeds received by the Partnership in connection with a Disposition include any consideration other than cash ("Non-Cash Proceeds"), such Non-Cash Proceeds shall not be includable in Disposition Proceeds until cash is actually received with respect to such Non-Cash Proceeds, unless the General Partners, in their sole discretion, decide to distribute such Non-Cash Proceeds in kind. "Net Income" or "Net Loss" means, for any accounting period, the net income or net loss, as the case may be, of the Partnership during such accounting period for federal income tax purposes, plus any income earned by the Partnership during such accounting period that is exempt from federal income tax, minus the amount of any expenditures accrued by the Partnership during such accounting period that are described in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code, and adjusted, with respect to any asset the Book Basis of which differs from its adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, as described in the following sentence. For purposes of computing Net Income or Net Loss, gain or loss with respect to the disposition (including a distribution in kind by the Partnership) of any such asset shall be determined by the difference between (1) the amount realized with respect to such disposition and (2) the Book Basis. "Book Basis" means an asset's adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, except that, upon the admission of Kalvaria as a Partner, the Book Basis of all Partnership assets at the time of such admission is hereby adjusted to equal the respective fair market values of such assets as reflected in the Partners' Capital Account balances.

Section 13 of the Partnership Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: "13. DISTRIBUTIONS. The General Partners may, in their discretion, from time to time, cause the Partnership (a) to distribute all cash held by it or (b) to make distributions in kind of any of its non-cash assets. All such distributions shall be made in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Section 13. 13.1 DISPOSITION PROCEEDS.

In the case of any other cash or assets not described in Section 13.1, distributions shall be made to the General Partners in accordance with their respective Residual Percentage Interests." 13.3 WITHDRAWAL OF TRIARC SHARES. Notwithstanding provisions of Section 13.2, the General Partners may not cause the Partnership to distribute to them, in the aggregate, more than 50% of the Triarc Shares, and no such distribution may be made unless the Partners' respective Disposition Percentage Interests are adjusted as appropriate to ensure that the Limited Partner's interest in the Partnership is not adversely affected by such distribution." 15. The Partnership Agreement shall be amended by adding new Sections 19 and 20 to read in their entirety as follows: "19. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. 19.1 PAYOUT AMOUNT. In the event that (a) the Limited Partner's employment with Triarc pursuant to the employment agreement, dated as of November 1, 1993, between the Limited Partner and Triarc (as may be amended from time to time, the "Triarc Employment Agreement"), is terminated because of the Limited Partner's death as provided in Section 4.1 of the Triarc Employment Agreement, or disability pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Triarc Employment Agreement, or (b) the Term (as defined in the Triarc Employment Agreement) is terminated by Triarc for any reason (other than any such termination by Triarc for Cause as provided in Section 4.3 of the Triarc Employment Agreement) or by the Limited Partner pursuant to a notice not to extend the Triarc Employment Agreement delivered in accordance with Section 2 thereof (any termination described in clause (a) or (b) above is hereinafter referred to as a "Termination"), the Limited Partner (or his estate, as the case may be) shall sell to the Partnership, and the Partnership shall purchase, all of the Limited Partner's partnership interest in the Partnership on the date of Termination at a purchase price equal to the Payout Amount (as hereinafter defined). The "Payout Amount" shall be equal to the amount that would be required to be distributed to the Limited Partner under Section 13.1(b) hereof if all the Triarc Shares owned by the Partnership on the date of such Termination were sold on the date of such Termination for their fair market value (determined as set forth in Section 20), and the resulting gain or loss from such deemed sale were allocated among the Partners as provided in Section 12. Any Payout Amount required to be paid pursuant to this Section 19.1 shall be due and payable in five equal installments (with interest accruing from the Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) at the rate of 8% per annum); the first installment to be due and payable on the Payment Date and the subsequent installments to be due and payable on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the Payment Date. The "Payment Date" shall mean the thirtieth day after the fair market value of the Triarc Shares owned by the Partnership is determined pursuant to the terms hereof. 19.2 DEFERRED AMOUNT. If on the date of Termination the Partnership holds any Non-Cash Proceeds received by it with respect to any sale or other disposition of Triarc Shares during the Term (which Non-Cash Proceeds have not been included in Disposition Proceeds), then, notwithstanding the sale by the Limited Partner (or his estate, as the case may be) of all of his partnership interest in the Partnership pursuant to Section 19.1, after the date of Termination, the Limited Partner (or his estate, as the case may be) shall continue to have the right to receive the Deferred Amount (as hereinafter defined). The "Deferred Amount" shall be equal to the amount that would have been required to be distributed to the Limited Partner under Section 13.1(b) of the Partnership Agreement upon the sale of such Non-Cash Proceeds if he had not sold his partnership interest to the Partnership pursuant to Section 19.1 and the resulting gain or loss from such sale had been allocated among the Partners as provided in Section 12. Any Deferred Amount that is payable by the Partnership to the Limited Partner (or his estate, as the case may be) under this Section 19.2 shall be paid within 30 days after actual receipt by the Partnership of Disposition Proceeds with respect to the sale of the Non-Cash Proceeds. 19.3 CASH-OUT AMOUNT. If on the tenth anniversary of the date of Termination, the Limited Partner (or his estate, as the case may be) continues to have the right to receive a Deferred Amount under Section 19.2 with respect to any sale or other disposition of Triarc Shares during the Term for which the Partnership received Non-Cash Proceeds that as of such tenth anniversary date have not been included in Disposition Proceeds because cash has not been realized with respect thereto (the "Remaining Non-Cash Proceeds"), then the Partnership shall pay the Limited Partner the Cash-Out Amount as provided below. The "Cash-Out Amount" shall be an amount equal to the Deferred Amount the Limited Partner would have been entitled to receive under Section 19.2 if the Remaining Non-Cash Proceeds were sold on the tenth anniversary of the Termination for its fair market value in cash (determined as set forth in Section 20). Any Cash-Out Amount required to be paid pursuant to the terms of this Section 19.3 shall be due and payable in five equal installments (with interest accruing from the Cash-Out Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) at the rate of 8% per annum); the first installment to be due and payable on the Cash-Out Payment Date and the subsequent installments to be due and payable on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the Cash-Out Payment Date. The "Cash-Out Payment Date" shall mean the thirtieth day after the fair market value is determined pursuant to the terms hereof. 20. FAIR MARKET VALUE. For purposes of this Amendment No. 4, "fair market value" shall mean (a) with respect to part or all of the Triarc Shares, the closing price of the Triarc Shares on the New York Stock Exchange (or, if the Triarc Shares are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the principal national securities exchange on which the Triarc Shares are then listed) or, if they are not so listed, the average of the representative bid and asked prices quoted in the NASDAQ System as of 4 o'clock P.M., New York time, or, if on any day the Triarc Shares are not quoted in the NASDAQ System, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on such day in the over-the-counter market as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated, or any similar successor organization, in each such case averaged over a period of 20 trading days ending on and including the date of determination; and (b) with respect to part or all of any Non-Cash Proceeds, any interest of the Limited Partner in a Liquidation Partnership, or any Triarc Shares that cannot be valued as set forth in clause (a) above, the fair market value of such property as determined by the mutual agreement of the Partnership or the Liquidation Partnership, as the case may be, and the Limited Partner or, if no such agreement can be reached, by an investment banking firm that is satisfactory to both the Partnership or the Liquidation Partnership, as the case may be, and the Limited Partner. The determination of the fair market value by an investment banking firm hereunder shall be final and binding upon the Partnership or the Liquidation Partnership, as the case may be, and the Limited Partner. The fees of such investment banking firm shall be shared equally by the Partnership or the Liquidation Partnership, as the case may be, and the Limited Partner." 16. Except as specifically set forth in this Amendment No. 4, the Partnership Agreement shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect and is hereby ratified, as amended by this Amendment No. 4. 17. This Amendment No. 4 shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State.

All terms used in this Agreement that are defined in a Credit Agreement, in a Term Agreement (if both Credit Agreements have been terminated) or in Article 8 or 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the "CODE") currently in effect in the State of New York and that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings herein as set forth therein.

(the ISSUER"), the certificates representing the Pledged Shares, all options and other rights, contractual or otherwise, in respect thereof (including, without limitation, any registration rights, whether under the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of April 23, 1993 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the "REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT"), between the Issuer and the Pledgor, or otherwise) and all dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the Pledged Shares; and (b) all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing; in each case, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the Pledgor and howsoever such interest therein may arise or appear (whether by ownership, security interest, claim or otherwise). SECTION 3. SECURITY FOR OBLIGATIONS.

SECTION 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Pledgor represents and warrants as follows: (a) The Pledgor (i) is a limited partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization as set forth on the first page hereof and (ii) has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement. (b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Pledgor of this Agreement (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary partnership action, (ii) do not and will not contravene its Partnership Agreement, any law or any contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Pledgor or any of its properties, and (iii) do not and will not result in or require the creation of any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of its properties, other than in favor of the Collateral Agent. The exercise by the Collateral Agent of its rights and remedies under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the sale or other disposition of the Pledged Shares) will not violate any contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Pledgor or the Pledged Shares. (c) This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Pledgor, enforceable against the Pledgor in accordance with its terms. (d) The Pledged Shares are fully paid and nonassessable and, to the best of the Pledgor's knowledge, have been duly authorized and validly issued. All other shares of stock constituting Pledged Collateral will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Pledgor has legally and beneficially owned the Pledged Shares since April 23, 1993. The information set forth in Schedule I hereto is true and correct. (e) There is no action, suit or proceeding pending or, to the Pledgor's knowledge, threatened or otherwise affecting the Pledgor before any court or other governmental authority or arbitrator that is reasonably likely to materially adversely affect the financial condition of the Pledgor or the Pledgor's ability to perform its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. (f) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or other regulatory body or any other Person is required for (i) the due execution, delivery and performance by the Pledgor of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to which the Pledgor is a party, (ii) the grant by the Pledgor, or the perfection, of the security interest purported to be created hereby in the Pledged Collateral or (iii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights and remedies hereunder. (g) The Pledgor is and will be at all times the legal and beneficial owner of the Pledged Collateral, free and clear of any lien, security interest, option or other charge or encumbrance except for the security interest created by this Agreement. There is no financing statement naming the Pledgor as debtor (or similar documents or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) now on file or registered in any public office covering any interest of the Pledgor in the Pledged Collateral. (h) This Agreement creates a valid security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Pledged Collateral, as security for the Obligations. The Collateral Agent's having possession of the Pledged Shares and all other certificates, instruments and cash constituting Pledged Collateral from time to time results in the perfection of such security interest. Such security interest is, or in the case of Pledged Collateral in which the Pledgor obtains rights after the date hereof, will be, a perfected, first priority security interest. All action necessary or desirable to perfect and protect such security interest has been duly taken, except for the Collateral Agent's having possession of certificates, instruments and cash constituting Pledged Collateral after the date hereof. (i) The information on Exhibit A hereto (the Restricted Securities Statement) is accurate and complete. (j) The Pledgor has furnished the Collateral Agent with a true, correct and complete copy of the Registration Rights Agreement and each other registration rights and other agreement in respect of or otherwise affecting any of the Pledged Shares in existence on the date hereof.

The Pledgor will cause any Person with whom it shall be deemed one "person" for purposes of Rule 144(a)(2) (the Pledgor and all such parties being hereinafter collectively referred to as the "ATTRIBUTION GROUP") to refrain from selling any securities of the same class or convertible into the same class of securities as the Pledged Shares, whether or not such securities are pledged hereunder, and in the event of any such sale consented to by the Collateral Agent will furnish the Collateral Agent with a copy of any Form 144 filed in respect of such sale.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default: (i) all rights of the Pledgor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights that the Pledgor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (i) of this Section 7(a), and to receive the dividends and interest payments and other distributions that the Pledgor would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to paragraph (ii) of this Section 7(a), shall cease, and (A) all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such dividends and interest payments, and (B) the Pledgor shall execute and deliver all such proxies and other instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other rights that it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section 7(b)(i); (ii) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may at its option exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any of the Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof, including, without limitation, the right to exchange, in its discretion, any and all of the Pledged Collateral upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other adjustment of any issuer of Pledged Collateral, or upon the exercise by any issuer of Pledged Collateral of any right, privilege or option pertaining to any Pledged Collateral, and, in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Collateral with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agent upon such terms and conditions as it may determine; and (iii)all dividends and interest payments and other distributions that are received by the Pledgor contrary to the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 7(b) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from the other funds of the Pledgor, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral in the exact form received with any necessary indorsement and/or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral hereunder. SECTION 8. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS CONCERNING THE PLEDGED COLLATERAL. (a) The Pledgor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file, without the signatures of the Pledgor where permitted by law, one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to the Pledged Collateral. The Collateral Agent hereby agrees to notify the Pledgor promptly after any such filing. (b) The Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent the Pledgor's attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full authority in the place and stead of the Pledgor and in the name of the Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent's discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument (at the expense of the Pledgor) that the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement including, without limitation, (i) at any time and from time to time, to receive, indorse and collect all instruments made payable to the Pledgor representing any distribution in respect of any Pledged Collateral and to give full discharge for the same, (ii) to complete, execute and file a Form 144 with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral and (iii) to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper representing any dividend or other distribution in respect of the Pledged Collateral and, in addition to the foregoing and without limitation: (A) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral and to receive, indorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection therewith; and (B) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Pledged Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Collateral Agent shall exercise such powers only during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default. (c) If the Pledgor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent (immediately after giving notice to the Pledgor) may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Pledgor pursuant to Section 10 hereof, together with interest from the date such expenses are paid by the Collateral Agent until repaid in full, at the rate for overdue principal under either Credit Agreement (or, if each Credit Agreement has been terminated, under either Term Agreement), all payable on demand. (d) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of any Pledged Collateral in its possession, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto and shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Pledged Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering surrender of it to the Pledgor. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if the Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that the Collateral Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall not have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Pledged Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Pledged Collateral. (e) The Collateral Agent may at any time in its discretion (i) subject only to the revocable rights of the Pledgor under Section 7(a) hereof and so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without notice to the Pledgor, transfer or register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Pledged Collateral, and (ii) exchange certificates or instruments constituting Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. SECTION 9. REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: (a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code then in effect in the State of New York (whether or not the Code applies to the affected Pledged Collateral); and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, also may (i) without notice except as specified below, sell the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange or broker's board or elsewhere, at such price or prices and on such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Pledgor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days' notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Pledgor agrees to complete and execute one or more Forms 144, and to cooperate in the completion and execution of one or more Forms 144 if completed and executed by the Collateral Agent, to the extent necessary or desirable to permit a sale of the Pledged Collateral in compliance with Rule 144. (b) The Pledgor agrees that in any sale of any Pledged Collateral hereunder the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable law, rule or regulation (including, without limitation, compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders and purchases to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Pledged Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchasers by any governmental regulatory authority or official, and the Pledgor further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Collateral Agent be liable or accountable to the Pledgor for any discount allowed by reason of the fact that such Pledged Collateral is sold in compliance with any such limitation or restriction. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 9, the Pledgor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may deem it impracticable to effect a public sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral and that the Collateral Agent may, therefore, determine to make one or more private sales of any such Pledged Collateral to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms that might have been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sales shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of any securities constituting Pledged Collateral (the "SECURITIES") to register such Securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. The Pledgor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell such Securities that has been (i) publicly advertised on a BONA FIDE basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such an offer may be so advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933) or (ii) made privately in the manner described above to not less than fifteen BONA FIDE offerees shall be deemed to involve a "public sale" for the purposes of Section 9-504(3) of the UCC (or any successor or similar, applicable statutory provision) as then in effect in the State of New York, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a "public offering" under the Securities Act of 1933, and that the Collateral Agent may, in such event, bid for and purchase such Securities. (d) Any cash held by the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Pledged Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10 hereof) in whole or in part by the Collateral Agent against, all or any part of the Obligations in such order as the Collateral Agent shall elect. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by the Collateral Agent and remaining after payment in full of all of the Obligations after the termination of the Commitments shall be paid over to the Pledgor or to such Person as may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. SECTION 10. INDEMNITY AND EXPENSES. (a) The Pledgor agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, client charges and other expenses of the Collateral Agent's counsel) growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof (including, without limitation, the sale of Pledged Collateral pursuant to a public or private offering and each and every document produced in furtherance thereof), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting solely and directly from the Collateral Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. (b) The Pledgor agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent on demand the amount of any and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and other client charges of the Collateral Agent's counsel and of any experts and agents, that the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration and termination of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Pledged Collateral (including, without limitation, fees or commissions of any broker), (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, (iv) the failure by the Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

(b) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the Collateral Agent against the Pledgor under any Loan Document are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by the Collateral Agent to exercise any of its rights under any other Loan Document against the Pledgor or against any other Person. (c) Any provision of this 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 portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. (d) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the payment in full or release of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments, and (ii) be binding on the Pledgor and its successors and assigns and shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns.

(b) If the Bank determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loans or the Bank's Commitment, then the Borrowers shall, upon demand by the Bank, pay to the Bank an additional amount sufficient to compensate the Bank or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that the Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of the Loans or the Bank's Commitment.

(c) Prior to making any demand for compensation under this Section 2.10, (i) the Bank will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by a Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the judgment of the Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Bank, and (ii) the Bank will permit the Borrowers to prepay all or any part of the affected Loans, together with interest to the date of payment and payment of funding losses pursuant to Section 2.12, PROVIDED that nothing herein shall relieve the Borrowers from their obligations to compensate the Bank for increased costs or reduced return incurred prior to the taking of the actions contemplated by clauses (i) and (ii) above. Section 2.11 ILLEGALITY. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in an existing law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, makes it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to make, maintain or fund any Loan at an interest rate based on Adjusted LIBOR, the Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrowers, whereupon the obligation of the Bank to make Loans at a rate based on Adjusted LIBOR shall be suspended until the Bank notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist. The Bank will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by a Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the judgment of the Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Bank. If the Bank makes a reasoned determination that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any Loan to maturity at a rate based on Adjusted LIBOR and so specifies in such notice, then effective on the date specified in such notice each affected Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable monthly in arrears (in the absence of prior demand).

Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Bank under this section, each Loan bearing interest at a rate based on LIBOR (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded by a matching deposit in Dollars in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for the respective Interest Period, whether or not such Loan was in fact so funded. Section 2.13 UNAVAILABILITY. If the Bank determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any Interest Period, the Bank will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrowers. Commencing at the end of each Interest Period then in effect, the respective Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate (rather than at a rate based on LIBOR) until the Bank revokes such notice in writing.

MAY (the "Borrower"), an individual residing in the State of New York, and NATIONSBANK OF FLORIDA, N.A. (the "Bank"), a national banking association. RECITALS The Borrower has requested that the Bank make a term loan (the "Loan") available to the Borrower in an amount not in excess of Fifty-One Million Dollars ($51,000,000), which Loan is to be secured by the pledge to the Bank by the Borrower of promissory notes (the "Collateral Notes") issued by Pechiney Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Pechiney"), payable to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of $60,000,000. Payment of the Collateral Notes is supported by transfer letters of credit issued by Banque Nationale de Paris, New York Branch, which, on the Closing Date, will issue new letters of credit naming the Bank as beneficiary. The Bank will hold such letters of credit for itself and as collateral agent for any Eligible Institution (as defined herein) to which the Bank sells a participation in the Loan or to which the Bank assigns a portion of its interest therein. The Bank has agreed to make the loan to the Borrower on the terms set forth herein. ARTICLE I DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS Section 1.1 Certain Defined Terms.

"Loan" has the meaning specified in the Recitals.

"Rating Change" means that either Standard & Poor's Corporation or Moody's Investors Service, Inc. has rated the long-term senior debt of BNP below investment grade or has withdrawn its rating. "Regulation D" means Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as in effect from time to time.

Section 2.2 Interest. The outstanding principal balance of the Loan will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin from the date of the making of the Loan until the Loan is paid in full, except that after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal A to the sum of (i) Adjusted LIBOR, (ii) the Applicable Margin and (iii) [REDACTED] %(the "Default Rate"). Interest on the Loan shall be paid in arrears on each date set forth on Schedule 2.2. Interest will continue to accrue on the Loan until all interest then due is paid even though the Bank may have drawn under the Letter of Credit for an interest payment and shall accrue thereon at the Default Rate if interest is not paid within three Business Days after the due date therefor, whether or not a drawing has been made under the Letter of Credit. Section 2.3 Payment Under Collateral Notes and Letters of Credit. If an event of default occurs under a Collateral Note and the Borrower desires that the Bank demand payment under the Collateral Notes, accelerate the Collateral Notes or draw under one or more Letters of Credit as a result of such event of default, the Borrower shall promptly notify the Bank of same, and the Borrower shall direct the Bank to take such action by delivering to the Bank a Direction to Demand Payment, Accelerate or Draw, specifying the event which caused such event of default, the date of the occurrence thereof (if known) and, if the date of such occurrence is not known, the date on which the Borrower obtained knowledge of such occurrence as well as the action the Borrower desires that the Bank take upon receipt of such Direction to Demand Payment, Accelerate or Draw, the Bank shall forthwith take the requested action. If the Bank is not paid by Pechiney or BNP, if the Bank is not paid the full amount for which it draws under the Letters of Credit or if the amount drawn is withheld and placed in escrow, then the Bank shall notify the Borrower of same. The proceeds of any funds received directly from Pechiney after a demand by the Bank under the Collateral Notes or as proceeds following a drawing under the Letters of Credit shall be used by the Bank to pay any sums then due and unpaid under this Agreement and the Note. If, at the time the Bank receives such payment from either Pechiney or BNP, or the Borrower makes any payment to the Bank, there is then no other Default or Event of Default under this Agreement, any excess proceeds shall be remitted to the Borrower within one Business Day after applying such payments. Any action taken by the Bank pursuant to a Direction to Demand Payment, Accelerate or Draw shall not affect or impair the Borrower's obligation hereunder or under the Note to pay the amounts due hereunder. The Bank may draw under the Letters of Credit even though it has not received a Direction to Demand Payment, Accelerate or Draw, except that the Bank shall not accelerate the Collateral Notes or make a drawing under the Letters of Credit for the principal amount due under the Collateral Notes as a result solely of a Missed Interest Payment unless a Reinstatement Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Section 2.4 Payment of Principal. The Borrower shall repay the principal amount outstanding under the Note on January 4, 1999, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees and other amounts owing hereunder and under the Pledge Agreement and the Note. Section 2.5 Optional Prepayment. At any time and from time to time, the Borrower may, subject to Section 2.12, prepay all or any part of the Loan together with interest to date of payment, except that if the Loan is prepaid in full during the twelve-month period commencing on the Closing Date, the Borrower shall also pay to the Bank on the date of prepayment a cancellation fee of $100,000. Section 2.6 Mandatory Prepayment. If, as a result of acceleration, voluntary prepayment or otherwise in respect of the Collateral Notes, the Borrower receives any payment of the principal amount of one or more Collateral Notes prior to January 4, 1999, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the principal amount of the Note in the principal amount prepaid on the Collateral Notes. Section 2.7 Evidence of Credit Extensions. The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note, executed by the Borrower, payable to the order of the Bank and dated the Closing Date. The Bank shall record advances and principal payments thereof on the grid attached thereto or, at its option, in its records, and the Bank's record thereof shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to make or an error in making a notation with respect to any payment shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Note. Section 2.8 Payment. Payment of principal, interest and any other sums due under this Agreement or under the Note shall be made without set-off or counterclaim in dollars in immediately available funds on the day such payment is due not later than 12:00 Noon New York time. All sums received after such time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day and principal payments or sums (other than interest) due hereunder shall bear interest for an additional day. All payments shall be made to the Bank at the address set forth beneath its name on the signature pages hereof or to such other address as the Bank may advise the Borrower in writing. Section 2.9 Computations of Interest; Business Day. (a) All computations of interest under this Agreement and the Note shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on the principal balance outstanding, under the Note from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which such principal balance is repaid. (b) Payment of all amounts due hereunder shall be made on a Business Day. Any payment due on a day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next Business Day unless the next Business Day would fall in the next calendar month, in which case such payment shall be made on the Business Day immediately preceding the due date. Section 2.10 Increased Costs, Etc. (a) If, after the date of this Agreement, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any (x) change in the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank of the principal of or interest on the Loan (excluding changes in the rate of tax payable on the Bank's overall income and bank franchise taxes) or (y) imposition or change in any reserve or similar requirement, and the result of any of the foregoing is an increase in the cost to the Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining the Loan (other than the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by the Bank and within 15 days thereof, pay to the Bank an additional amount sufficient to compensate the Bank for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by the Bank, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. (b) If the Bank determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loan or the Bank's commitment to lend hereunder, then the Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days after demand by the Bank, pay to the Bank an additional amount sufficient to compensate the Bank or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that the Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of the Loan or the Bank's commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by the Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. (c) Prior to making any demand for compensation under this Section 2.10, unless such action would be economically or legally disadvantageous to the Bank in the reasoned opinion of its tax or regulatory advisors, the Bank will (i) designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation to which the Bank is entitled pursuant to this Section 2.10 and (ii) permit the Borrower to prepay all or any part of the Loan together with interest to the date of payment, subject to payment of the cancellation fee in Section 2.5 (if applicable) and payment of funding losses pursuant to Section 2.12. Section 2.11 Illegality. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in an existing law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such governmental authority, makes it unlawful or impossible for the Bank in the reasoned opinion of its legal or regulatory advisors to make, maintain or fund the Loan at an interest rate based on LIBOR, the Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon the obligation of the Bank to make the Loan at a rate based on LIBOR shall be suspended until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist. Before giving any notice to the Borrower pursuant to this section, the Bank shall designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice (unless such action would be economically or legally disadvantageous to the Bank in the reasoned opinion of its tax or regulatory advisors). If the Bank makes a reasoned determination that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of the Loan to maturity at a rate based on LIBOR and so specifies in such notice, the Bank shall immediately convert the Loan into a loan bearing interest at the Base Rate in an equal principal amount. Section 2.12 Funding Losses. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Bank and to hold the Bank harmless from any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of: (a) the failure of the Borrower to make any payment or required prepayment of principal of the Loan (including payments made after any acceleration thereof); (b) the failure of the Borrower to make any prepayment permitted hereunder after giving notice thereof, or (c) the repayment of the Loan on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period; including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain the Loan hereunder at a rate based on LIBOR or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Bank under this section, the Loan bearing interest at a rate based on LIBOR (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded by a matching deposit in Dollars in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for the respective Interest Period, whether or not the Loan was in fact so funded. Section 2.13 Unavailability. If the Bank determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any Interest Period, the Bank will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrower. Commencing at the end of the Interest Period then in effect, the Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate (rather than at a rate based on LIBOR) until the Bank revokes such notice in writing. Section 2.14 Special Prepayment. The provisions of Sections 2.10, 2.11, and 2.12 shall also apply to any assignee permitted pursuant to Section 7.7 and shall apply to any unassigned portion of the Loan retained by the Bank (regardless of whether the Bank may have sold a participation interest in such retained portion to a participant permitted pursuant to Section 7.7). If demand for payment is made pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.12 or if notice of illegality is given pursuant to Section 2.11, whether by any such permitted assignment or by the Bank on behalf of any such permitted participant, then the Borrower may prepay in full (but not in part) such assignee's or participant's interest in the Loan on the last day of the Interest Period during which such demand for additional amounts was made or during which such notice of illegality was given.

(a) If, as a result of acceleration, voluntary prepayment, scheduled payment or otherwise in respect of the Collateral Notes, Pechiney at any time or from time to time makes any payment of principal of a Collateral Note (each a "PRINCIPAL PAYMENT"), the Borrower shall immediately prepay the principal amount of the Note. Such prepayment shall be equal to 85% of such Principal Payment, and, provided that no Default (under either this Agreement or under the Triarc Credit Agreement) or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and the Borrower shall immediately provide to the Bank a certificate confirming that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), promptly and in any event within three Business Days an amount (the "EXCESS PORTION") equal to 15% of such Principal Payment shall be paid to the Borrower. The Bank agrees to direct the Depositary Bank and the Collateral Agent to pay the Excess Portion of the Principal Payment to the Borrower in accordance with, but subject to, the foregoing sentence. It is understood and agreed that if the amount equal to 85% of the Principal Payment exceeds the outstanding principal amount of the Note, an amount equal to such excess shall be paid by the Borrower to NationsBank, N.A. for application against the aggregate principal amount of the Demand Loans outstanding and other obligations under the Triarc Credit Agreement. . (b) If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing when any Pechiney Proceeds are received or otherwise being held by the Depositary Bank, the Collateral Agent or the Bank, the entire amount of such Pechiney Proceeds shall be paid to the Bank and applied by the Bank as a payment of principal of the Note or applied by the Bank as a payment of interest on the Note or other obligations of the Borrower hereunder, as the Bank in its sole discretion shall determine (it being understood that the Borrower shall have no right whatsoever to receive any portion of such proceeds, except pursuant to Section 15 of the Pledge Agreement). If the Pechiney Proceeds exceed the principal of and interest on the Note and the other obligations of the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall pay an amount equal to such excess to NationsBank, N.A. for application against the aggregate principal amount of Demand Loans and other obligations outstanding under the Triarc Credit Agreement. It is also understood that upon the payment of any Pechiney Proceeds in respect of the principal of the Collateral Notes, NationsBank, N.A. may at any time thereafter decrease the Original Advance Percentage (as defined in the Triarc Credit Agreement) and the Margin Call Percentage (as defined in the Triarc Credit Agreement)(in either case, to such percentage as the Bank may in its sole and absolute discretion determine) by giving either Borrower thereunder notice of such revised percentage. If such a decrease results in a "Default" under the Triarc Credit Agreement, then (i) the decrease will constitute a Default hereunder, (ii) so long as any such "Default", or any other Default or Event of Default, shall occur and be continuing, the Borrower shall no right to receive any portion of the Pechiney Proceeds, (iii) if any "Event of Default" (as defined in the Triarc Credit Agreement), or any other Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, such Pechiney Proceeds may be applied to the payment of the Borrower's obligations hereunder or to the obligations under the Triarc Credit Agreement, and (iv) if such "Default" under the Triarc Credit Agreement is cured or waived, and no other Default, Event of Default or "Event of Default" (as defined in the Triarc Credit Agreement) has occurred and is continuing, the Bank will upon request promptly and in any event within three Business Days return to the Borrower the Excess Portion of such Principal Payment, to the extent not applied to the Borrower's obligations hereunder or under the Triarc Credit Agreement in accordance with clause (iii) hereof (and the Bank agrees to direct the Depositary Bank and the Collateral Agent to pay the Excess Portion of the Principal Payment to the Borrower in accordance with, but subject to, this clause (iv)). (c) Each prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid, and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12 hereof." 5. AMENDMENT TO REPRESENTATION EVENT OF DEFAULT. Subsection (b) of Section 6.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and by substituting therefor the following: "(b) REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY. Any representation or warranty by the Borrower made or deemed made herein or in the Pledge Agreement, or by DWG made or deemed made in the Triarc Pledge Agreement, or which is contained in any certificate, document or financial or other statement furnished by the Borrower or DWG at any time under this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or the Triarc Pledge Agreement, proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect on or as of the date made or deemed made; or" 6. AMENDMENT TO COVENANT EVENT OF DEFAULT.

DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL. (a) It is the intention of the Carolinas Bank and the Borrowers that if the Carolinas Bank wishes to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement), the Carolinas Bank will sell or otherwise dispose of, or cause the Carolinas Agent to sell or otherwise dispose of, the Triarc Collateral (the "RELATED TRIARC COLLATERAL") allocable to the Borrowers (each a "DISPOSITION"), prior to the sale or other disposition of, or prior to causing the Florida Agent to sell or otherwise dispose of, the Pechiney Collateral. (b) Notwithstanding anything in subsection 8(a) to the contrary, the Carolinas Bank will have no obligation under subsection 8(a) whatsoever, and the Carolinas Bank may sell or otherwise dispose of, or direct the sale or other disposition of, any of the Collateral in such order as the Carolinas Bank may determine (in its sole and absolute discretion) if the Carolinas Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that: (i) the prompt Disposition of the Related Triarc Collateral may contravene any law, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement), including, without limitation, by reason of (A) the bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other event described in Section 6.1(e) or (f) of the Revolving Credit Agreement (without regard to whether the grace period referred to in Section 6.1(f) thereof has elapsed) with respect to DWG Acquisition Group, L.P., (B) the commencement of any legal action or proceeding that stays or enjoins, or seeks to stay or enjoin, the Disposition of any of the Related Triarc Collateral, or (C) a possible violation of the securities laws; (ii) the Disposition of any of the Related Triarc Collateral (at such time as the Carolinas Bank may elect) may subject it, the Carolinas Agent, any affiliate, or any officer, employee or director of the foregoing, to liability; (iii) the value of any of the Pechiney Collateral threatens to decline rapidly in value; (iv) there is a reasonable good-faith basis to conclude that delaying the sale or other disposition of the Pechiney Collateral until after the Disposition of the Related Triarc Collateral may adversely affect the ability of the Carolinas Bank to receive payment in full of the principal of, and interest on, the Demand Loans and all of the related Obligations; (v) either Borrower, DWG Acquisition Group, L.P. or any affiliate has taken any action, or has failed to take any action requested by the Carolinas Bank, that the Carolinas Bank reasonably believes may prevent, delay, impede or materially and adversely affect the ability of the Carolinas Bank or the Carolinas Agent to sell or otherwise dispose of the Triarc Collateral; or (vi) the Carolinas Bank or the Carolinas Agent is unable to sell the Triarc Collateral within a 90-day period, during which the Carolinas Bank or the Carolinas Agent exercises reasonable, good faith efforts to so sell the Triarc Collateral. (c) It is understood and agreed that nothing in this Section 8 shall affect any of the other rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Florida Agent and Florida Bank with respect to the Pechiney Collateral (including, without limitation, (i) to collect the interest on the Collateral Notes (as defined in each Term Agreement), under the circumstances provided in the Term Agreement or the Pechiney Pledge Agreement, (ii) to maintain its security interest in the Collateral Account (as defined in the Pechiney Pledge Agreement), (iii) to draw on the Letters of Credit (as defined in each Term Agreement), under the circumstances provided in the Term Agreement or the Pechiney Pledge Agreement, (iv) to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Pechiney Collateral upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under the Term Agreement, and (v) to take any action and to execute such other instrument as the Florida Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of the Pechiney Pledge Agreement). 9.

Section 2.10 INCREASED COSTS, ETC. (a) If, after the date of this Agreement, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any (x) change in the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank of the principal of or interest on any Loan (excluding changes in the rate of tax payable on the Bank's overall income and bank franchise taxes) or (y) imposition or change in any reserve or similar requirement, and the result of any of the foregoing is an increase in the cost to the Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining the Loans (which is not otherwise included pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of Adjusted LIBOR in its determination of Adjusted LIBOR), then the Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by the Bank, pay to the Bank an additional amount sufficient to compensate the Bank for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to either Borrower by the Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. (b) If the Bank determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loans or the Bank's Commitment, then the Borrowers shall, upon demand by the Bank, pay to the Bank an additional amount sufficient to compensate the Bank or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that the Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of the Loans or the Bank's Commitment. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrowers by the Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. (c) Prior to making any demand for compensation under this Section 2.10, (i) the Bank will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by a Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the judgment of the Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Bank, and (ii) the Bank will permit the Borrowers to prepay all or any part of the affected Loans, together with interest to the date of payment and payment of funding losses pursuant to Section 2.12, PROVIDED that nothing herein shall relieve the Borrowers from their obligations to compensate the Bank for increased costs or reduced return incurred prior to the taking of the actions contemplated by clauses (i) and (ii) above. Section 2.11 ILLEGALITY. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in an existing law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, makes it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to make, maintain or fund any Loan at an interest rate based on Adjusted LIBOR, the Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrowers, whereupon the obligation of the Bank to make Loans at a rate based on Adjusted LIBOR shall be suspended until the Bank notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist. The Bank will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by a Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the judgment of the Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Bank. If the Bank makes a reasoned determination that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any Loan to maturity at a rate based on Adjusted LIBOR and so specifies in such notice, then effective on the date specified in such notice each affected Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable monthly in arrears (in the absence of prior demand). Section 2.12FUNDING LOSSES. The Borrowers agree to reimburse the Bank and to hold the Bank harmless from any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of: (a) the failure of the Borrowers to make any payment or required prepayment of principal of any Loan (including payments made after any acceleration thereof); (b) the failure of the Borrowers to make any prepayment permitted hereunder after giving notice thereof; (c) the repayment of a Loan on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period (whether due to acceleration, DEMAND, or otherwise); or (d) the failure for any reason (other than a wrongful default by the Bank) of a Borrower to borrow any Loan after notice has been given to the Bank in accordance with Section 2.1 hereof (whether or not such notice is withdrawn); including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain the Loans hereunder at a rate based on LIBOR or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Bank under this section, each Loan bearing interest at a rate based on LIBOR (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded by a matching deposit in Dollars in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for the respective Interest Period, whether or not such Loan was in fact so funded. Section 2.13UNAVAILABILITY. If the Bank determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any Interest Period, the Bank will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrowers. Commencing at the end of each Interest Period then in effect, the respective Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate (rather than at a rate based on LIBOR) until the Bank revokes such notice in writing. Section 2.14SPECIAL PREPAYMENT. The provisions of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 2.12 shall also apply to any assignee permitted pursuant to Section 7.7 and shall apply to any unassigned portion of the Loans retained by the Bank (regardless of whether the Bank may have sold a participation interest in such retained portion to a participant permitted pursuant to Section 7.7). If demand for payment is made pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.12 or if notice of illegality is given pursuant to Section 2.11, whether by any such permitted assignee or by the Bank on behalf of any such permitted participant, then the Borrowers may prepay in full (but not in part) such assignee's or participant's interest in the Loans on the last day of the Interest Period during which such demand for additional amounts was made or during which such notice of illegality was given.

Interest on the Loan shall be paid in arrears on each date set forth on Schedule 2.2. Interest will continue to accrue on the Loan until all interest then due is paid even though the Bank may have drawn under the Letter of Credit for an interest payment and shall accrue thereon at the Default Rate if interest is not paid within three Business Days after the due date therefor, whether or not a drawing has been made under the Letter of Credit. Section 2.3 Payment Under Collateral Notes and Letters of Credit. If an event of default occurs under a Collateral Note and the Borrower desires that the Bank demand payment under the Collateral Notes, accelerate the Collateral Notes or draw under one or more Letters of Credit as a result of such event of default, the Borrower shall promptly notify the Bank of same, and the Borrower shall direct the Bank to take such action by delivering to the Bank a Direction to Demand Payment, Accelerate or Draw, specifying the event which caused such event of default, the date of the occurrence thereof (if known) and, if the date of such occurrence is not known, the date on which the Borrower obtained knowledge of such occurrence as well as the action the Borrower desires that the Bank take upon receipt of such Direction to Demand Payment, Accelerate or Draw, the Bank shall forthwith take the requested action. If the Bank is not paid by Pechiney or BNP, if the Bank is not paid the full amount for which it draws under the Letters of Credit or if the amount drawn is withheld and placed in escrow, then the Bank shall notify the Borrower of same. The proceeds of any funds received directly from Pechiney after a demand by the Bank under the Collateral Notes or as proceeds following a drawing under the Letters of Credit shall be used by the Bank to pay any sums then due and unpaid under this Agreement and the Note. If, at the time the Bank receives such payment from either Pechiney or BNP, or the Borrower makes any payment to the Bank, there is then no other Default or Event of Default under this Agreement, any excess proceeds shall be remitted to the Borrower within one Business Day after applying such payments. Any action taken by the Bank pursuant to a Direction to Demand Payment, Accelerate or Draw shall not affect or impair the Borrower's obligation hereunder or under the Note to pay the amounts due hereunder. The Bank may draw under the Letters of Credit even though it has not received a Direction to Demand Payment, Accelerate or Draw, except that the Bank shall not accelerate the Collateral Notes or make a drawing under the Letters of Credit for the principal amount due under the Collateral Notes as a result solely of a Missed Interest Payment unless a Reinstatement Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Section 2.4 Payment of Principal. The Borrower shall repay the principal amount outstanding under the Note on January 4, 1999, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees and other amounts owing hereunder and under the Pledge Agreement and the Note. Section 2.5 Optional Prepayment. At any time and from time to time, the Borrower may, subject to Section 2.12, prepay all or any part of the Loan together with interest to date of payment, except that if the Loan is prepaid in full during the twelve-month period commencing on the Closing Date, the Borrower shall also pay to the Bank on the date of prepayment a cancellation fee of $100,000. Section 2.6 Mandatory Prepayment. If, as a result of acceleration, voluntary prepayment or otherwise in respect of the Collateral Notes, the Borrower receives any payment of the principal amount of one or more Collateral Notes prior to January 4, 1999, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the principal amount of the Note in the principal amount prepaid on the Collateral Notes. Section 2.7 Evidence of Credit Extensions. The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note, executed by the Borrower, payable to the order of the Bank and dated the Closing Date. The Bank shall record advances and principal payments thereof on the grid attached thereto or, at its option, in its records, and the Bank's record thereof shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to make or an error in making a notation with respect to any payment shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Note. Section 2.8 Payment. Payment of principal, interest and any other sums due under this Agreement or under the Note shall be made without set-off or counterclaim in dollars in immediately available funds on the day such payment is due not later than 12:00 Noon New York time. All sums received after such time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day and principal payments or sums (other than interest) due hereunder shall bear interest for an additional day. All payments shall be made to the Bank at the address set forth beneath its name on the signature pages hereof or to such other address as the Bank may advise the Borrower in writing. Section 2.9 Computations of Interest; Business Day. (a) All computations of interest under this Agreement and the Note shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on the principal balance outstanding, under the Note from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which such principal balance is repaid. (b) Payment of all amounts due hereunder shall be made on a Business Day. Any payment due on a day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next Business Day unless the next Business Day would fall in the next calendar month, in which case such payment shall be made on the Business Day immediately preceding the due date. Section 2.10 Increased Costs, Etc. (a) If, after the date of this Agreement, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any (x) change in the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank of the principal of or interest on the Loan (excluding changes in the rate of tax payable on the Bank's overall income and bank franchise taxes) or (y) imposition or change in any reserve or similar requirement, and the result of any of the foregoing is an increase in the cost to the Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining the Loan (other than the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by the Bank and within 15 days thereof, pay to the Bank an additional amount sufficient to compensate the Bank for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by the Bank, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. (b) If the Bank determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loan or the Bank's commitment to lend hereunder, then the Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days after demand by the Bank, pay to the Bank an additional amount sufficient to compensate the Bank or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that the Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of the Loan or the Bank's commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by the Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. (c) Prior to making any demand for compensation under this Section 2.10, unless such action would be economically or legally disadvantageous to the Bank in the reasoned opinion of its tax or regulatory advisors, the Bank will (i) designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation to which the Bank is entitled pursuant to this Section 2.10 and (ii) permit the Borrower to prepay all or any part of the Loan together with interest to the date of payment, subject to payment of the cancellation fee in Section 2.5 (if applicable) and payment of funding losses pursuant to Section 2.12. Section 2.11 Illegality. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in an existing law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such governmental authority, makes it unlawful or impossible for the Bank in the reasoned opinion of its legal or regulatory advisors to make, maintain or fund the Loan at an interest rate based on LIBOR, the Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon the obligation of the Bank to make the Loan at a rate based on LIBOR shall be suspended until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist. Before giving any notice to the Borrower pursuant to this section, the Bank shall designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice (unless such action would be economically or legally disadvantageous to the Bank in the reasoned opinion of its tax or regulatory advisors). If the Bank makes a reasoned determination that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of the Loan to maturity at a rate based on LIBOR and so specifies in such notice, the Bank shall immediately convert the Loan into a loan bearing interest at the Base Rate in an equal principal amount. Section 2.12 Funding Losses. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Bank and to hold the Bank harmless from any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of: (a) the failure of the Borrower to make any payment or required prepayment of principal of the Loan (including payments made after any acceleration thereof); (b) the failure of the Borrower to make any prepayment permitted hereunder after giving notice thereof, or (c) the repayment of the Loan on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period; including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain the Loan hereunder at a rate based on LIBOR or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Bank under this section, the Loan bearing interest at a rate based on LIBOR (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded by a matching deposit in Dollars in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for the respective Interest Period, whether or not the Loan was in fact so funded. Section 2.13 Unavailability. If the Bank determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any Interest Period, the Bank will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrower. Commencing at the end of the Interest Period then in effect, the Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate (rather than at a rate based on LIBOR) until the Bank revokes such notice in writing. Section 2.14 Special Prepayment. The provisions of Sections 2.10, 2.11, and 2.12 shall also apply to any assignee permitted pursuant to Section 7.7 and shall apply to any unassigned portion of the Loan retained by the Bank (regardless of whether the Bank may have sold a participation interest in such retained portion to a participant permitted pursuant to Section 7.7). If demand for payment is made pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.12 or if notice of illegality is given pursuant to Section 2.11, whether by any such permitted assignment or by the Bank on behalf of any such permitted participant, then the Borrower may prepay in full (but not in part) such assignee's or participant's interest in the Loan on the last day of the Interest Period during which such demand for additional amounts was made or during which such notice of illegality was given. Any principal amount, interest or increased costs received by any such assignee or participant pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not be required to be shared with the Bank and any other assignees or participants.

Such prepayment shall be equal to 85% of such Principal Payment, and, provided that no Default (under either this Agreement or under the Triarc Credit Agreement) or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and the Borrower shall immediately provide to the Bank a certificate confirming that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), promptly and in any event within three Business Days an amount (the "EXCESS PORTION") equal to 15% of such Principal Payment shall be paid to the Borrower. The Bank agrees to direct the Depositary Bank and the Collateral Agent to pay the Excess Portion of the Principal Payment to the Borrower in accordance with, but subject to, the foregoing sentence.

If such a decrease results in a "Default" under the Triarc Credit Agreement, then (i) the decrease will constitute a Default hereunder, (ii) so long as any such "Default", or any other Default or Event of Default, shall occur and be continuing, the Borrower shall no right to receive any portion of the Pechiney Proceeds, (iii) if any "Event of Default" (as defined in the Triarc Credit Agreement), or any other Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, such Pechiney Proceeds may be applied to the payment of the Borrower's obligations hereunder or to the obligations under the Triarc Credit Agreement, and (iv) if such "Default" under the Triarc Credit Agreement is cured or waived, and no other Default, Event of Default or "Event of Default" (as defined in the Triarc Credit Agreement) has occurred and is continuing, the Bank will upon request promptly and in any event within three Business Days return to the Borrower the Excess Portion of such Principal Payment, to the extent not applied to the Borrower's obligations hereunder or under the Triarc Credit Agreement in accordance with clause (iii) hereof (and the Bank agrees to direct the Depositary Bank and the Collateral Agent to pay the Excess Portion of the Principal Payment to the Borrower in accordance with, but subject to, this clause (iv)).
