          NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  Principles of Consolidation:
  
     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
  Aaron Rents, Inc. ("the Company") and its wholly-owned
  subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany accounts and
  transactions have been eliminated.
  
  Interim Financial Statements:
  
     The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 1994, and
  the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Cash Flows for the
  nine months ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, have been prepared
  without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
  necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of
  operations and cash flows at December 31, 1994 and for all
  periods presented have been made.
  
     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
  in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
  accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. 
  It is suggested that these financial statements be read in
  conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
  included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with
  the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended March
  31, 1994.  The results of operations for the period ended
  December 31, 1994, are not necessarily indicative of the
  operating results for the full year.
  
  Public Offering of Stock:
  
     On May 2, 1994, the Company issued through a public offering,
  1,275,000 shares of Class B Common Stock.  The net proceeds to
  the Company after deducting underwriting discounts and offering
  expenses were $14.1 million.  The net proceeds were used to
  reduce bank debt.
  
  Amendment to Revolving Credit Agreement:
  
     On January 6, 1995, the Company amended its Revolving Credit
  Agreement adding a third bank and increasing available borrowings
  from $60,000,000 to $75,000,000, and changed certain covenants in
  the credit agreement.  The terms and pricing under the credit
  agreement remained either unchanged or were at new terms more
  favorable to the Company.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated 
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                                
  Results of Operations:
  
  Third quarter of fiscal year 1995 compared to third quarter of
  fiscal year 1994:
  
     Total revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 1995
  increased $10.8 million (23.7%) to $56.5 million from $45.7
  million for the same period a year ago.  This increase in
  revenues is primarily due to a $10.4 million (31.4%) increase in
  rentals and fees income.  Of this increase in rentals and fees
  income, $6.3 million is attributed to Aaron's Rental Purchase
  stores in which rental revenues increased 50.7% to $18.8 million
  in the third quarter of 1995 compared to $12.5 million for the
  same quarter a year ago.  Rental revenues from the Company's
  rent-to-rent operations increased $4.1 million (19.8%) during the
  same period.
  
     Revenues from sales decreased $20,000 to $12.3 million
  compared to $12.3 million for the same period last year.
  
     Other revenues in the third quarter 1995 were $580,000
  compared to $174,000 a year ago.  Included in other revenues is
  franchise and royalty fee income from franchised operations. 
  This income for the current quarter was $226,000 compared to
  $84,000 for the same period a year ago.
  
     Cost of sales decreased $134,000 to $8.8 million compared to
  $9.0 million for the third quarter last year. As a percentage of
  sales, cost of sales were 71.9% in the third quarter of fiscal
  year 1995 compared to 72.9% for the quarter a year ago.  This
  lower percentage is due to better margins in fiscal year 1995 on
  the sale of rental return furniture.
  
     Operating expenses increased $6.1 million (26.9%) to $28.8
  million compared to $22.7 million a year ago.  As a percentage of
  total revenues, operating expenses were 50.9% in the third
  quarter of fiscal year 1995 compared to 49.6% for the same
  quarter a year ago.  The higher percentage in fiscal year 1995 is
  primarily due to the growth of the Company's rental purchase
  operations, which has higher operating expenses as a percentage
  of revenues than the Company's other operations.  The higher
  operating expenses in the rental purchase division is due to
  expenditures related to the opening of new stores.
  
     Depreciation of rental merchandise increased $3.7 million
  (37.1%) to $13.5 million from $9.8 million last year, and as a
  percentage of total rentals and fees increased to 30.9% in the
  current quarter from 29.6% for the same quarter a year ago.  This
  increase is primarily due to the growth of the Company's rental
  purchase operations, in which merchandise is depreciated at
  faster rates to coincide with shorter contract terms.
  
     Interest expense increased $223,000 (40.5%) to $774,000 in the
  third quarter for fiscal year 1995 compared to $551,000 for the
  same quarter last year.  The increase in interest expense was due
  to increased borrowing rates in the current quarter.
  
     Income tax expense increased $288,000 (19.5%) to $1.8 million
  compared to $1.5 million a year ago, and the Company's effective
  tax rate was 38.1% for the third quarter of fiscal year 1995
  compared to 40.3% in the previous year's quarter.  The decrease
  in the effective tax rate is due to lower amounts provided in
  fiscal year 1995 for permanent differences.
  
     As a result, net earnings increased $683,000 (31.2%) to $2.9
  million in the third quarter of fiscal year 1995 compared to $2.2
  million a year ago.  As a percentage of total revenues, net
  earnings were 5.1% in the current year quarter compared to 4.8% a
  year ago.
  
     The weighted average number of shares outstanding during the
  third quarter of fiscal year 1995 was 10,033,000 compared to
  8,699,000 for the same period last year.  The increase in the
  number of shares is due to the issuance of 1,275,000 shares of
  Class B Common Stock on May 2, 1994.
  
  
  Nine months of fiscal year 1995 compared to nine months of fiscal
  year 1994:
  
     Total revenues for the nine months of fiscal year 1995
  increased $37.6 million (28.5%) to $169.3 million from $131.8
  million for the same period a year ago.  This increase in
  revenues is primarily due to a $36.1 million (39.3%) increase in
  rentals and fees income.  Of this increase in rentals and fees
  income, $20.9 million is attributed to Aaron's Rental Purchase
  stores in which rental revenues increased 65.3% to $53.0 million
  in the first nine months of 1995 compared to $32.1 million for
  the same period a year ago.  Rental revenues from the Company's
  rent-to-rent operations increased $15.2 million (25.4%) during
  the same period.
  
     Revenues from sales increased $838,000 (2.1%) to $39.9 million
  compared to $39.0 million for the same period last year.  This
  increase is due to increased sales of rental return furniture.
  
     Other revenues in the nine months of 1995 were $1.5 million
  compared to $867,000 a year ago.  Included in other revenues is
  franchise and royalty fee income from franchised operations. 
  This income for the first nine months of fiscal year 1995 was
  $551,000 compared to $290,000 for the same period a year ago.
  
     Cost of sales increased $98,000 to $28.8 million compared to
  $28.7 million for the nine months last year, and as a percentage
  of sales decreased to 72.2% from 73.5%.  The improvement in gross
  margins is primarily due to improved margins on the sale of
  rental return furniture.
  
     Operating expenses increased $20.4 million (31.4%) to $85.5
  million compared to $65.0 million a year ago.  As a percentage of
  total revenues, operating expenses were 50.5% for the first nine
  months of fiscal year 1995 compared to 49.3% for the same period
  a year ago.  This increase was primarily due to the Company
  selling its Ball Stalker subsidiary in June 1993, which had lower
  operating expenses as a percentage of revenues than the Company's
  rental and rental purchase operations.
  
     Depreciation of rental merchandise increased $13.7 million
  (52.0%) to $39.9 million from $26.3 million last year, and as a
  percentage of total rentals and fees increased to 31.2% for the
  nine month period from 28.6% for the same period a year ago. 
  This increase is primarily due to the growth of the Company's
  rental purchase operations, in which merchandise is depreciated
  at faster rates to coincide with shorter contract terms.
  
     Interest expense increased $740,000 (51.2%) to $2.2 million
  for the first nine months of fiscal year 1995 compared to $1.4
  million for the same period last year.  The increase in interest
  expense is due to higher debt levels and increased borrowing
  rates in the first nine months of fiscal year 1995.
  
     Income tax expense increased $729,000 (17.0%) to $5.0 million
  compared to $4.3 million a year ago, and the Company's effective
  tax rate was 38.6% for the first nine months of fiscal year 1995
  compared to 41.4% in the previous year's period.  The decrease in
  the effective tax rate is due to lower amounts provided in fiscal
  year 1995 for permanent differences.
  
     As a result, net earnings increased $1.9 million (31.4%) to
  $8.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 1995
  compared to $6.1 million a year ago.  As a percentage of total
  revenues, net earnings were 4.7% in the current year period
  compared to 4.6% during the same period a year ago.
  
     The weighted average number of shares outstanding during the
  first nine months of fiscal year 1995 was 9,884,000 compared to
  8,713,000 for the first nine month period last year.  The
  increase in the number of shares is due to the issuance of
  1,275,000 shares of Class B Common Stock on May 2, 1994.
  
  
  Liquidity and Capital Resources:
  
     On May 2, 1994, the Company issued through a public offering
  1,275,000 shares of Class B Common Stock.  The net proceeds to
  the Company after deducting underwriting discounts and offering
  expenses were $14.1 million.  The net proceeds were used to
  reduce bank debt.
  
     During the first quarter of fiscal year 1995, the Company
  declared a semi-annual dividend payable on July 7, 1994 of $.03
  per share on Class A Common Stock and $.04 per share on Class B
  Common Stock.
  
     During the third quarter of fiscal year 1995, the Company
  declared a semi-annual dividend payable on January 2, 1995 of
  $.02 per share on Class A Common Stock and $.05 per share on
  Class B Common Stock.
  
     On January 6, 1995, the Company amended its Revolving Credit
  Agreement adding a third bank and increasing available borrowings
  from $60,000,000 to $75,000,000, and changed certain covenants in
  the credit agreement.  The terms and pricing under the credit
  agreement remained either unchanged or were at new terms more
  favorable to the Company.
  
     Management believes its expected cash flow from operations,
  proceeds from the sale of rental return merchandise, bank
  borrowings, and vendor credit are adequate to supply short-term
  capital needs, and that it has the ability to obtain additional
  long-term capital if needed.

of CD Rate Advances or Eurodollar Advances for a new Interest
Period, it shall give the Agent at least two Business Days' prior
written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in
writing) of each Borrowing being converted into or continued as
CD Rate Advances or Eurodollar Advances.  Such notice (a "Notice
of Conversion/Continuation") shall be given to the Agent at its
Payment Office prior to 10:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time).  Each
such Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable and
shall specify the date of such conversion or continuation, the
aggregate principal amount of the Advances to be converted or
continued, the date of such conversion or continuation, whether
the Advances are being converted into or continued as CD Rate
Advances or Eurodollar Advances and the Interest Period
applicable thereto.  If, upon the expiration of an Interest
Period in respect of Borrowings consisting of Fixed Rate
Advances, the Company shall have failed to deliver the Notice of
Conversion/Continuation, the Company shall be deemed to have
elected to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing consisting of
Base Rate Advances.  So long as any Executive Officer of the
Company has knowledge that any Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, no Borrowings may be converted
into or continued as (upon expiration of the current Interest
Period) Fixed Rate Advances unless the Agent and each of the
Banks shall have otherwise consented in writing.

         (c)  Without in any way limiting the Company's obliga-

tion to confirm in writing any telephonic notice, the Agent or
the Cash Management Lender may act without liability upon the
basis of telephonic notice believed by the Agent or the Cash
Management Lender (as the case may be) in good faith to be from
the Company prior to receipt of written confirmation.  In each
such case, the Company hereby waives the right to dispute the
records of the Agent or the Cash Management Lender (as the case
may be) of the terms of such telephonic notice.

         (d)  The Agent shall promptly give each Bank notice by
telephone (confirmed in writing) or by telex, telecopy or
facsimile transmission of the matters covered by the notices
given to the Agent pursuant to this Section 5.01 with respect to
the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Term Loans.

         Section 5.02.  Disbursement of Funds.

         (a)  No later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia time)
on the date of each Borrowing pursuant to the Revolving Credit
Commitments (other than one resulting from a conversion or
continuation pursuant to Section 5.01(b)), each Bank will make
available its Pro Rata Share of the amount of such Borrowing in
immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Agent. 
The Agent will make available to the Company the aggregate of the
amounts (if any) so made available by the Banks to the Agent in a
timely manner by crediting such amounts to the Company's demand
deposit account maintained with the Agent or, at the Company's
option, to effect a wire transfer of such amounts to the
Company's account specified by the Agent, by the close of
business on such Business Day.  In the event that the Banks do
not make such amounts available to the Agent by the time
prescribed above, but such amount is received later that day,
such amount may be credited to the Company in the manner
described in the preceding sentence on the next Business Day
(with interest on such amount to begin accruing hereunder on such
next Business Day).

         (b)  No later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia time)
on the date of each Cash Management Loan requested by a Notice of
Cash Management Borrowing, the Cash Management Lender will make
available the amount of such Cash Management Loan in immediately
available funds by crediting such amount to the Company's demand
deposit account maintained with the Cash Management Lender or, at
the Company's option, by affecting a wire transfer of such
amounts to the Company's account specified by the Company.  Cash
Management Loans made pursuant to the Controlled Disbursement
Agreement between the Cash Management Lender and the Company
shall be made available pursuant to the terms of such agreement.

         (c)  Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any
Bank prior to the date of a Borrowing under the Revolving Credit
Commitments that such Bank does not intend to make available to
the Agent such Bank's portion of the Borrowing to be made on such
date, the Agent may assume that such Bank has made such amount
available to the Agent on such date and the Agent may make
available to the Company a corresponding amount.  If such
corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Agent
by such Bank on the date of Borrowing, the Agent shall be
entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such
Bank together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate.  If such
Bank does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the
Agent's demand therefor, the Agent shall promptly notify the
Company, and the Company shall immediately pay such corresponding
amount to the Agent together with interest at the rate specified
for the Borrowing which includes such amount paid and any amounts
due under Section 5.12 hereof.  Nothing in this subsection shall
be deemed to relieve any Bank from its obligation to fund its
Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights
which the Company may have against any Bank as a result of any
default by such Bank hereunder.

         (d)  All Borrowings under the Revolving Credit
Commitments shall be loaned by the Banks on the basis of their
Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitments.  All
Borrowings under the Cash Management Line of Credit Commitment
shall be loaned by the Cash Management Lender.  No Bank shall be
responsible for any default by any other Bank in its obligations
hereunder, and each Bank shall be obligated to make the Loans
provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of
any other Bank to fund its Revolving Credit Commitment or Term
Loans hereunder or of the Cash Management Lender to fund the Cash
Management Line of Credit Commitment.

         Section 5.03.  Interest.

         (a)  The Company agrees to pay interest in respect of
all unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Loans and the Term
Loans from the respective dates such principal amounts were
advanced to maturity (whether by acceleration, notice of
prepayment or otherwise) at rates per annum equal to the
applicable rates indicated below:

        (i)   For Eurodollar Advances--The relevant
    Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin;

       (ii)   For CD Rate Advances--The relevant CD Rate
    plus the Applicable Margin; and

      (iii)   For Base Rate Advances--The Base Rate in
    effect from time to time.

         (b)  The Company agrees to pay interest in respect of
all unpaid principal amounts of the Cash Management Loans made to
the Company from the respective dates such principal amounts were
advanced to maturity (whether by acceleration, notice of
prepayment or otherwise) at the Overnight Rate for each such Cash
Management Loan.

         (c)  Overdue principal and, to the extent not
prohibited by applicable law, overdue interest, in respect of the
Loans, and all other overdue amounts owing hereunder, shall bear
interest from each date that such amounts are overdue:

        (i)   in the case of overdue principal and interest
    with respect to all Loans outstanding as Fixed Rate
    Advances, at the rate otherwise applicable for the
    then-current Interest Period plus an additional two
    percent (2.0%) per annum; thereafter at the rate in
    effect for Base Rate Advances plus an additional two
    percent (2.0%) per annum; and

       (ii)   in the case of overdue principal and interest
    with respect to all Loans outstanding as Base Rate
    Advances or Overnight Rate Advances, and all other
    Obligations hereunder (other than Loans), at a rate
    equal to the applicable Base Rate plus an additional
    two percent (2.0%) per annum;

provided that no Loan shall bear interest after maturity, whether
by non-payment at scheduled due date, acceleration, notice of
prepayment or otherwise) at a rate per annum less than two
percent (2.0%) per annum in excess of the rate of interest
applicable thereto at maturity.

         (d)  Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and
including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date of any
repayment thereof; provided that, if a Loan is repaid on the same
day made, one day's interest shall be paid on such Loan. 
Interest on all outstanding Base Rate Advances shall be payable
quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of the next
succeeding calendar quarter of the Company in each year. 
Interest on all outstanding Fixed Rate Advances shall be payable
on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto, and,
in the case of Fixed Rate Advances having an interest period in
excess of 90 days (in the case of CD Rate Advances) or three
months (in the case of Eurodollar Advances), on each day which
occurs every 90 days or three months, as the case may be, after
the initial date of such Interest Period.  Interest on all
outstanding Overnight Rate Advances shall be payable quarterly in
arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter of the Company
in each year.  Interest on all Revolving Credit Loans and Term
Loans shall also be payable on any conversion of Advances
comprising such Loans into Advances of another Type, prepayment
(on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration,
notice of prepayment or otherwise) and, after maturity, on
demand.  

         (e)  The Agent, upon determining the CD Rate or the
Adjusted LIBO Rate for an Interest Period, shall promptly notify
by telephone (confirmed in writing) or in writing the Company and
the other Banks.  Any such determination shall, absent manifest
error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. 

         Section 5.04.  Interest Periods.  

         (a)  In connection with the making or continuation of,
or conversion into, a Borrowing of Fixed Rate Advances, the
Company shall select an Interest Period (each an "Interest
Period") to be applicable to such Fixed Rate Advances, which
Interest Period shall (x) in the case of CD Rate Advances, be
either a 30, 60, 90 or 180 day period, and (y) in the case of
Eurodollar Advances, be either a 1, 2, 3 or 6 month period;
provided that:  

        (a)   The initial Interest Period for such
    Borrowing shall commence on the date of such Borrowing
    (including the date of any conversion from Borrowings
    consisting of Advances of another Type) and each
    Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such
    Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the next
    preceding Interest Period expires;

        (b)   If any Interest Period would otherwise expire
    on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest
    Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business
    Day, provided that if any Interest Period in respect of
    Eurodollar Advances would otherwise expire on a day
    that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month
    after which no further Business Day occurs in such
    month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
    preceding Business Day;

        (c)   Any Interest Period in respect of Eurodollar
    Advances which begins on a day for which there is no
    numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at
    the end of such Interest Period shall, subject to part
    (d) below, expire on the last Business Day of such
    calendar month;

        (d)   No Interest Period shall extend beyond any
    date upon which any principal payment is due with
    respect to the Term Loans, unless the aggregate
    principal amount of Term Loans that are Base Rate
    Advances, or that have Interest Periods which will
    expire on or before the date of the respective payment
    or prepayment, is equal to or in excess of the amount
    of any principal payment to be made;

        (e)   No Interest Period with respect to the
    Revolving Credit Loans shall extend beyond the
    Revolving Credit Termination Date, and no Interest
    Period with respect to the Term Loans shall extend
    beyond the Term Loan Maturity Date.

         Section 5.05.  Fees.  

         (a)  The Company shall pay to the Agent, for the
account of and distribution to each Bank with a Revolving Credit
Commitment, an unused commitment fee for the period commencing on
the Closing Date to and including the earlier of (i) the
Revolving Credit Termination Date and (ii) the Conversion Date
for such Bank, at a rate equal to twenty-two basis points (0.22%)
per annum (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and
payable for the actual number of days elapsed) on the average
daily unused portion of such Bank's Revolving Credit Commitment,
such fee being payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business
Day of April, July, October and January in each year, and on the
Conversion Date for such Bank or the Revolving Credit Termination
Date, as the case may be.

         (b) The Company shall pay to the Agent an annual
administrative fee, in advance, in the respective amount and on
the dates previously agreed in writing by the Company with the
Agent.

         Section 5.06.  Voluntary Prepayments of Borrowings.

         (a)  The Company may, at its option, prepay Borrowings
under the Revolving Credit Commitment or the Term Loans at any
time in whole, or from time to time in part in an aggregate
amount of at least $1,000,000 and multiples of $100,000 thereof,
by paying the principal amount to be prepaid, together with
interest accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of prepayment,
and, in the case of the prepayment of Borrowings consisting of
Fixed Rate Advances, all compensation payments pursuant to
Section 5.12 if such prepayment is made on a date other than the
last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto.  The Company
may, at its option, prepay Borrowings under the Cash Management
Line of Credit Commitment at any time in whole or from time to
time in part, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid,
together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of
prepayment.  The Company may prepay Borrowings under the Cash
Management Line of Credit Commitment with the proceeds of
Borrowings made under the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant
to Section 5.01 hereof to the extent the Company is permitted to
make Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Commitments under the
terms of this Agreement.  Each such optional prepayment shall be
applied in accordance with Section 5.06(c) below.  

         (b)  The Company shall give written notice (or tele-

phonic notice confirmed in writing) to the Agent of any intended
prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans or the Term Loans not
less than five days prior to any voluntary prepayment.  The
Company shall give written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) to the Cash Management Lender of any
intended prepayment of the Cash Management Loans on or prior to
the date of such voluntary prepayment.  Such notice shall specify
whether Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans or Cash Management
Loans are to be prepaid and, once given, such notice shall be
irrevocable.  Upon receipt of such notice of prepayment pursuant
to the first sentence of this paragraph (b), the Agent shall
promptly notify each Bank of the contents of such notice and of
such Bank's share of such prepayment.

         (c)  The Company, when providing notice of prepayment
pursuant to Section 5.06(b), may designate the Types of Advances
and the specific Borrowing or Borrowings which are to be prepaid,
provided that (i) if any prepayment of Fixed Rate Advances made
pursuant to a single Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans or Term
Loans shall reduce the outstanding Advances made pursuant to such
Borrowing to an amount less than $1,000,000, such Borrowing shall
immediately be converted into Base Rate Advances; and (ii) each
prepayment made pursuant to a single Borrowing of Revolving
Credit Loans or Term Loans shall be applied pro rata among such
Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans comprising such Borrowing. 
In the absence of a designation by the Company of the Types of
Advances and the specific Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid,
the Agent, with respect to Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans,
or the Cash Management Lender, with respect to the Cash
Management Loans, shall, subject to the foregoing, make such
designation in its sole discretion.  All voluntary prepayments of
Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans or Cash Management Loans shall
be applied to the payment of any unpaid interest thereon before
application to principal and shall be applied against scheduled
amortization payments in the inverse order of maturity.  

         Section 5.07.  Payments, etc. 

         (a)  (i)  Except as otherwise specifically provided
herein, all payments under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, other than the payments specified in clause (ii)
below, shall be made without defense, set-off or counterclaim to
the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time) on
the date when due and shall be made in Dollars in immediately
available funds at its Payment Office.

         (ii)  Except as otherwise specifically provided herein,
all payments under this Agreement with respect to the Cash
Management Loans and the Cash Management Line of Credit Note
shall be made without defense, set-off or counterclaim to the
Cash Management Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta,
Georgia time) on the date when due and shall be made in Dollars
in immediately available funds at its Payment Office.

         (b)  (i) All such payments shall be made free and clear
of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes in respect
of this Agreement, the Notes or other Loan Documents, or any
payments of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable
hereunder or thereunder (but excluding, except as provided in
paragraph (ii) hereof, any Taxes imposed on the overall net
income of the Banks pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in
which the principal executive office or appropriate Lending
Office of such Bank is located).  If any Taxes are so levied or
imposed, the Company agrees (A) to pay the full amount of such
Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that
every net payment of all amounts due hereunder and under the
Notes and other Loan Documents, after withholding or deduction
for or on account of any such Taxes (including additional sums
payable under this Section 5.07), will not be less than the full
amount provided for herein had no such deduction or withholding
been required, (B) to make such withholding or deduction and (C)
to pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in
accordance with applicable law.  The Company will furnish to the
Agent and each Bank, within 30 days after the date the payment of
any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of
tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Company.  The Company
will indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and each Bank, and
will reimburse the Agent and each Bank upon written request, for
the amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by the
Agent or such Bank and any liability (including penalties,
interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Taxes were correctly or illegally asserted. 
A certificate as to the amount of such payment by such Bank or
the Agent, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and
binding for all purposes.

         (ii)  The Company shall also reimburse the Agent and
each Bank, upon written request, for any Taxes imposed
(including, without limitation, Taxes imposed on the overall net
income of the Agent or such Bank or its applicable Lending Office
pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which the principal
executive office or the applicable Lending Office of the Agent or
such Bank is located) as the Agent or such Bank shall determine
are payable by the Agent or such Bank in respect of amounts paid
by or on behalf of the Company to or on behalf of the Agent or
such Bank pursuant to paragraph (i) hereof.

         (c)  Subject to Section 5.04(b), whenever any payment
to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due
on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall
be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect
to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at
the applicable rate during such extension.

         (d)  All computations of interest and fees shall be
made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of
days (including the first day but excluding the last day)
occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are
payable (to the extent computed on the basis of days elapsed). 
Interest on Base Rate Advances and Overnight Rate Advances shall
be calculated based on the Base Rate and the Overnight Rate,
respectively, from and including the date of such Loan to but
excluding the date of the repayment or conversion thereof. 
Interest on Fixed Rate Advances shall be calculated as to each
Interest Period from and including the first day thereof to but
excluding the last day thereof.  Each determination by the Agent
of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be made in good faith
and, except for manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and
binding for all purposes.  

         (e)  Payment by the Company to the Agent in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement shall, as to the Company,
constitute payment to the Banks under this Agreement.

         Section 5.08.  Interest Rate Not Ascertainable, etc. 
In the event that the Agent shall have determined (which
determination shall be made in good faith and, absent manifest
error, shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties)
that on any date for determining the CD Rate or the Adjusted LIBO
Rate for any Interest Period, by reason of any changes arising
after the date of this Agreement affecting the United States
secondary certificate of deposit market, the London interbank
market or the Agent's position in such markets, adequate and fair
means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate
on the basis provided for in the definition of CD Rate or Ad-

justed LIBO Rate, then, and in any such event, the Agent shall
forthwith give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the
Company and to the Banks, of such determination and a summary of
the basis for such determination.  Until the Agent notifies the
Company that the circumstances giving rise to the suspension
described herein no longer exist, the obligations of the Banks to
make or permit portions of the Revolving Credit Loans or Term
Loans to remain outstanding past the last day of the then current
Interest Periods as CD Rate Advances or Eurodollar Advances shall
be suspended, and such affected Advances shall bear the same
interest as Base Rate Advances.

         Section 5.09.  Illegality.

         (a)  In the event that any Bank shall have determined
(which determination shall be made in good faith and, absent
manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all
parties) at any time that the making or continuance of any Fixed
Rate Advance has become unlawful by compliance by such Bank in
good faith with any applicable law, governmental rule,
regulation, guideline or order (whether or not having the force
of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be
unlawful), then, in any such event, the Bank shall give prompt
notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Company and to
the Agent of such determination and a summary of the basis for
such determination (which notice the Agent shall promptly
transmit to the other Banks).  

         (b)  Upon the giving of the notice to the Company
referred to in subsection (a) above, (i) the Company's right to
request and such Bank's obligation to make CD Rate Advances or
Eurodollar Advances shall be immediately suspended, and such Bank
shall make an Advance as part of the requested Borrowing of CD
Rate Advances or Eurodollar Advances as a Base Rate Advance,
which Base Rate Advance shall, for all other purposes, be
considered part of such Borrowing, and (ii) if the affected Fixed
Rate Advance or Advances are then outstanding, the Company shall
immediately, or if permitted by applicable law, no later than the
date permitted thereby, upon at least one Business Day's written
notice to the Agent and the affected Bank, convert each such
Advance into an Advance or Advances of a different Type with an
Interest Period ending on the date on which the Interest Period
applicable to the affected Fixed Rate Advance expires, provided
that if more than one Bank is affected at any time, then all
affected Banks must be treated the same pursuant to this Section
5.09(b).

         Section 5.10.  Increased Costs.

         (a)  If, by reason of (x) after the date hereof, the
introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any
change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements)
in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation, or (y) the
compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or
other governmental authority or quasi-governmental authority
exercising control over banks or financial institutions generally
(whether or not having the force of law):

        (i)   any Bank (or its applicable Lending Office)
    shall be subject to any tax, duty or other charge with
    respect to its Fixed Rate Advances or its obligation to
    make Fixed Rate Advances, or the basis of taxation of
    payments to any Bank of the principal of or interest on
    its Fixed Rate Advances or its obligation to make Fixed
    Rate Advances shall have changed (except for changes in
    the tax on the overall net income of such Bank or its
    applicable Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction
    in which such Bank's principal executive office or
    applicable Lending Office is located); or

       (ii)   any reserve (including, without limitation,
    any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal
    Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirement
    against assets of, deposits with or for the account of,
    or credit extended by, any Bank's applicable Lending
    Office shall be imposed or deemed applicable or any
    other condition affecting its Fixed Rate Advances or
    its obligation to make Fixed Rate Advances shall be
    imposed on any Bank or its applicable Lending Office or
    the London interbank market or the United States
    secondary certificate of deposit market;

and as a result thereof there shall be any increase in the cost
to such Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or
maintaining Fixed Rate Advances (except to the extent already
included in the determination of the applicable CD Rate for CD
Rate Advances or the applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate for Eurodollar
Advances), or there shall be a reduction in the amount received
or receivable by such Bank or its applicable Lending Office, then
the Company shall from time to time (subject, in the case of
certain Taxes, to the applicable provisions of Section 5.07(b)),
upon written notice from and demand by such Bank on the Company
(with a copy of such notice and demand to the Agent), pay to the
Agent for the account of such Bank within five Business Days
after the date of such notice and demand, additional amounts
sufficient to indemnify such Bank against such increased cost.  A
certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to
the Company and the Agent by such Bank in good faith and
accompanied by a statement prepared by such Bank describing in
reasonable detail the basis for and calculation of such increased
cost, shall, except for manifest error, be final, conclusive and
binding for all purposes.

         (b)  If any Bank shall advise the Agent that at any
time, because of the circumstances described in clauses (x) or
(y) in Section 5.10(a) or any other circumstances beyond such
Bank's reasonable control arising after the date of this
Agreement affecting such Bank or the London interbank market,
that the CD Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate as determined by the
Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
Bank of funding its Fixed Rate Advances, then, and in any such
event:

        (i)   the Agent shall forthwith give notice (by
    telephone confirmed in writing) to the Company and to the
    other Banks of such advice;

       (ii)   the Company's right to request and such Bank's
    obligation to make or permit portions of the Revolving
    Credit Loans and the Term Loans to remain outstanding past
    the last day of the then current Interest Periods as CD Rate
    Advances or Eurodollar Advances, as the case may be, shall
    be immediately suspended; and

      (iii)   such Bank shall make a Revolving Credit Loan or
    Term Loan as part of the requested Borrowing of CD Rate
    Advances or Eurodollar Advances, as the case may be, as a
    Base Rate Advance, which such Base Rate Advance shall, for
    all other purposes, be considered part of such Borrowing.

         Section 5.11.  Lending Offices.  Each Bank agrees that,
if requested by the Company, it will use reasonable efforts
(subject to overall policy considerations of such Bank) to
designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its
Fixed Rate Advances affected by the matters or circumstances
described in Sections 5.07(b), 5.08, 5.09 or 5.10 to reduce the
liability of the Company or avoid the results provided
thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to
such Bank as determined by such Bank, which determination if made
in good faith, shall be conclusive and binding on all parties
hereto.  Nothing in this Section 5.11 shall affect or postpone
any of the obligations of the Company or any right of any Bank
provided hereunder.

         Section 5.12.  Funding Losses.  The Company shall
compensate each Bank, upon its written request to the Company
(which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such
amounts in reasonable detail and which request shall be made in
good faith and, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive
and binding upon all of the parties hereto), for all losses,
expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any
interest paid by such Bank to lenders of funds borrowed by it to
make or carry its Fixed Rate Advances, in either case to the
extent not recovered by such Bank in connection with the
reemployment of such funds and including loss of anticipated
profits), which the Bank may sustain:  (i) if for any reason
(other than a default by such Bank) a borrowing of, or conversion
to or continuation of, Fixed Rate Advances to the Company does
not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing
or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn),
(ii) if any repayment (including mandatory prepayments and any
conversions pursuant to Section 5.09(b)) of any Fixed Rate
Advances to the Company occurs on a date which is not the last
day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iii) if, for
any reason, the Company defaults in its obligation to repay its
Fixed Rate Advances when required by the terms of this Agreement.

         Section 5.13.  Assumptions Concerning Funding of
Eurodollar Advances.  Calculation of all amounts payable to a
Bank under this Article IV shall be made as though that Bank had
actually funded its relevant Fixed Rate Advances through the
purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at
the rate applicable to such Fixed Rate Advances in an amount
equal to the amount of the Fixed Rate Advances and having a
maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and, in the
case of Eurodollar Advances, through the transfer of such
Eurodollar Advances from an offshore office of that Bank to a
domestic office of that Bank in the United States of America;
provided however, that each Bank may fund each of its Fixed Rate
Advances in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption
shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this
Article V.

         Section 5.14.  Apportionment of Payments.  Aggregate
principal and interest payments in respect of Revolving Credit
Loans and Term Loans and payments in respect of unused commitment
fees for the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be apportioned
among all outstanding Revolving Credit Commitments and Term Loans
to which such payments relate, proportionately to the Banks'
respective Pro Rata Shares of such outstanding Revolving Credit
Commitments and Term Loans.  The Agent shall promptly distribute
to each Bank at its payment office set forth beside its name on
the appropriate signature page hereof, or such other address as
any Bank may request, its share of all such payments received by
the Agent.  

         Section 5.15.  Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Bank
shall obtain any payment or reduction (including, without
limitation, any amounts received as adequate protection of a
deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code) of
the Obligations (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the
exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its
Pro Rata Share of payments or reductions on account of all
Obligations obtained by all the Banks, such Bank shall forthwith
(i) notify each of the other Banks and Agent of such receipt, and
(ii) purchase from the other Banks such participations in the
affected obligations as shall be necessary to cause such
purchasing Bank to share the excess payment or reduction, net of
costs incurred in connection therewith, ratably with each of
them, provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment
or reduction is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank or
additional costs are incurred, the purchase shall be rescinded
and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery or
such additional costs, but without interest unless the Bank
obligated to return such funds is required to pay interest on
such funds.  The Company agrees that any Bank so purchasing a
participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 5.15
may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its
rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect
to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct
creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation.

         Section 5.16.  Capital Adequacy.  Without limiting any
other provision of this Agreement, in the event that any Bank
shall have determined that any law, treaty, governmental (or
quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order
regarding capital adequacy not currently in effect or fully
applicable as of the Closing Date, or any change therein or in
the interpretation or application thereof after the Closing Date,
or compliance by such Bank with any request or directive
regarding capital adequacy not currently in effect or fully
applicable as of the Closing Date (whether or not having the
force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would
be unlawful) from a central bank or governmental authority or
body having jurisdiction, does or shall have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on such Bank's capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that
which such Bank could have achieved but for such law, treaty,
rule, regulation, guideline or order, or such change or
compliance (taking into consideration such Bank's policies with
respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to
be material, then within ten (10) Business Days after written
notice and demand by such Bank (with copies thereof to the
Agent), the Company shall from time to time pay to such Bank
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such
reduction (but, in the case of outstanding Base Rate Advances,
without duplication of any amounts already recovered by such Bank
by reason of an adjustment in the applicable Base Rate).  Each
certificate as to the amount payable under this Section 5.16
(which certificate shall set forth the basis for requesting such
amounts in reasonable detail), submitted to the Company by any
Bank in good faith, shall, absent manifest error, be final,
conclusive and binding for all purposes.

         Section 5.17.  Benefits to Guarantors.  In
consideration for the execution and delivery by the Guarantors of
this Agreement, the Company agrees to make the benefit of
extensions of credit hereunder available to the Guarantors.

         Section 5.18.  Release of Prior Liens.  The Cash
Management Lender, First Union and the Agent hereby release and
terminate the Prior Liens and agree to execute and deliver to the
Company any and all termination statements or other similar Lien
release documents as the Company may reasonably request from time
to time to evidence or give public notice of such release and
terminations.

    or legal opinions as the Agent or any Bank may reasonably
    request, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory

In addition to the foregoing, the following conditions shall have

Agent, as of the time the initial Loans are, or any Term Loan is,

the making of all Loans, including the initial Loans and the Term

    Company and its Subsidiaries; and

         (f)  the Loans to be made and the use of proceeds

Commitment to repay a Cash Management Loan if a Default or Event
of Default exists.

         Each request for a Borrowing, the acceptance by the
Company of the proceeds thereof and the execution of the Term
Notes shall constitute a representation and warranty by the
Company, as of the date of the Loans comprising such Borrowing,
that the applicable conditions specified in Sections 6.01 and
6.02 have been satisfied.  


                                ARTICLE VII

                      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

         The Company represents and warrants as of the date
hereof and is deemed to represent and warrant as of the date of
each Loan hereunder that:

         Section 7.01.  Organization and Qualification.  The
Company and its Subsidiaries are corporations duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State
of Georgia and the State of Delaware, as applicable; the Company
and its Subsidiaries have the corporate power to own their
property and to carry on their business as now being conducted;
and the Company and its Subsidiaries are duly qualified as
foreign corporations to do business and are in good standing in
every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted
by them makes such qualification necessary and where failure to
qualify would have a Materially Adverse Effect.

         Section 7.02.  Company's Powers.  The execution,
delivery and payment of the Notes and the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement, the Guaranty Agreement and any
instrument or agreement required hereunder are within the
Company's or the Guarantors' corporate powers, as the case may
be, have been duly authorized by all necessary shareholder or
corporate action, and do not and will not contravene or conflict
with the terms of any charter, by-law or other organizational
papers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
indenture, agreement or undertaking to which the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries is bound or affected.

         Section 7.03.  Enforceability of Agreement.  This
Agreement is a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company,
enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, and
the Notes, the Guaranty Agreement and any other instrument or
agreement required hereunder, when executed and delivered, will
be similarly legal, valid, binding and enforceable against the
Company and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, in accordance with
their terms.

         Section 7.04.  Consent.  No consent, permission,
authorization, order or license of any governmental authority is
necessary in connection with the execution, delivery, performance
or enforcement of this Agreement, the Notes, the Guaranty
Agreement or any other instrument or agreement required
hereunder, except as may have been obtained and certified copies
of which have been delivered to each Bank.

         Section 7.05.  Statutes, Judgments.  There is no law,
statute, rule or regulation, nor is there any judgment, decree or
order of any court or agency binding on the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, which would be contravened by the execution,
delivery or performance of this Agreement, the Notes, the
Guaranty Agreement or any other instrument or agreement required
hereunder.

         Section 7.06.  Financial Statements.  The Company has
furnished each Bank with the following financial statements,
identified by a principal financial officer of the Company:

         Audited Consolidated Financial and Operating Statements
         for Aaron Rents, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (when
         applicable) for the years ended March 31, 1991 through
         1994, inclusive, and audit opinions with respect to
         such statements of Ernst & Young; and unaudited
         financial and operating statements for the six-month
         period ended September 30, 1994.

The above financial statements (including any related schedules
and/or notes) are true and correct in all material respects and
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles consistently followed throughout the
periods involved and show all known liabilities, direct and
contingent, of the entities covered thereby required to be shown
in accordance with such principles.  The balance sheets fairly
present the condition of the entities covered thereby as at the
dates thereof, and the profit and loss and surplus statements
fairly present the results of the operations of the entities
covered thereby for the periods indicated.  There has been no
material adverse change in the business, condition or operations
(financial or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries
since September 30, 1994.

         Section 7.07.  Actions Pending.  There is no action,
suit, investigation or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of
the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, or any properties or rights of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, before any court, arbitrator or
administrative or governmental body which is reasonably likely to
result in any material adverse change in the business, condition
or operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

         Section 7.08   Outstanding Debt.  Neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries has outstanding any indebtedness
except debt permitted hereunder.  There exists no default under
the provisions of any instrument evidencing such indebtedness or
of any agreement relating thereto.

         Section 7.09.  Title to Properties.  The Company and
each of its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to their
respective real properties, subject only to Liens permitted under
Section 9.01, and good title to all of its other respective
properties and assets, including the properties and assets
reflected in the balance sheet as of September 30, 1994
hereinabove described (other than properties and assets disposed
of in the ordinary course of business), subject to no Lien of any
kind except Liens permitted under Section 9.01.  The Company and
its Subsidiaries enjoy full and undisturbed possession of all
leases necessary in any material respect for the operation of
their respective properties and assets, none of which contains
any unusual or burdensome provisions which might materially
affect or impair the operation of such properties and assets. 
All such leases are valid and subsisting and are free from
defaults by the Company or respective landlords and in full force
and effect.

         Section 7.10   Taxes.  The Company has and each of its
Subsidiaries has filed all federal and state income tax returns
which, to the best knowledge of the officers of the Company, are
required to be filed, and each has paid all taxes as shown on
said returns and on all assessments received by it to the extent
such taxes have become due, except to the extent expressly
permitted by Section 9.01(a) hereof.

         Section 7.11   Regulation U, Etc.  Neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries own or have any present intention of
acquiring any "margin security" as defined in Regulation U of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (herein called a
"margin security").  The proceeds of the Notes will be used to
finance inventories and rental equipment and accounts receivable,
to provide funds for general operational expenses and working
capital.  None of such proceeds will be used, directly or
indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin
security or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any
indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry a
margin security or for any other purpose which might constitute
this transaction a "purpose credit" within the meaning of said
Regulation U.

         Section 7.12.  No Event of Default.  No Event of
Default specified in Article X hereof, and no event which with
notice or lapse of time or both would become such an Event of
Default, has occurred and is continuing or will occur as a result
of the incurring of any obligation under this Agreement.

         Section 7.13.  ERISA.  No fact or circumstance,
including but not limited to any Reportable Event, exists in
connection with any Plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries which
might constitute grounds for the termination of any such Plan by
the PBGC or for the appointment by the appropriate United States
District Court of a trustee to administer any such Plan.  For
purposes of this representation and warranty, if the Company is
not the Plan administrator, it shall nonetheless be deemed to
have knowledge of all facts attributable to the Plan
administrator designated pursuant to ERISA.

         Section 7.14.  Pollution and Environmental Control. 
Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has obtained all
permits, licenses and other authorizations which are required
under, and is in material compliance with, all federal, state,
and local laws and regulations relating to pollution,
reclamation, or protection of the environment, including laws
relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened
releases of pollutants, contaminants, or hazardous or toxic
materials or wastes into air, water, or land, or otherwise
relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use,
treatment, storage, disposal, transport, or handling of
pollutants, contaminants or hazardous or toxic materials or
wastes.

         Section 7.15.  Possession of Franchises, Licenses, Etc.
 The Company and its Subsidiaries possess all franchises,
certificates, licenses, permits and other authorizations from
governmental political subdivisions or regulatory authorities,
and all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names,
copyrights, licenses and other rights, free from burdensome
restrictions, that are necessary for the ownership, maintenance
and operation of any of their respective properties and assets,
and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in
violation in any material respect of any thereof.

         Section 7.16.  Contingent Liabilities.  After due
inquiry, there exists no material contingent liability or
obligation assertable against the Company or its Subsidiaries
that is not identified and disclosed to the Banks in the
consolidated financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections
7.06 or 8.01 hereof or in Schedule 7.16 attached hereto.

         Section 7.17.  Compliance with Laws.  Each of the
Company and its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material
respects with all applicable federal, state and local laws,
rules, regulations and orders, including, without limitation, all
federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations and orders
relating to pollution, reclamation or protection of the
environment, including laws relating to emissions, discharges,
releases or threatened releases of pollutants, contaminants, or
hazardous or toxic materials or wastes into air, water, or land,
or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing,
distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport, or
handling of pollutants, contaminants or hazardous or toxic
materials or wastes, and all federal, state and local laws,
rules, regulations and orders relating to franchising activities.


                               ARTICLE VIII

                           AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

         The Company covenants and agrees so long as any of the
Revolving Credit Commitments of any Bank, or the Cash Management

final payment of all indebtedness incurred hereunder and unless

    from the beginning of the current fiscal year to the end of
    such calendar quarter, and consolidated and consolidating
    balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at the

    Subsidiaries as at the end of such year, setting forth in
    each case in comparative form corresponding figures from the
    preceding annual statements, all in reasonable detail and
    reasonably satisfactory in scope to Banks, and the
    consolidated financial statements shall be certified by
    independent public accountants of recognized standing,
    selected by the Company, whose report shall be in scope and
    substance reasonably satisfactory to Banks, and both
    consolidated and consolidating financial statements shall be
    certified by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company;

         (d)  along with the quarterly and annual reports
    required by clauses (ii) and (iii) above, a certificate of
    the Chief Financial Officer of the Company certifying that
    no Event of Default exists and that no event exists which
    with notice or the lapse of time or both would become such
    an Event of Default, which certificate shall also
    demonstrate in reasonable detail, with respect to both
    quarterly reports and annual reports, the Company's
    compliance with the covenants set out in Sections 8.04,
    8.05, 8.07, 9.02 and 9.03;

         (e)  promptly upon receipt thereof, copies of any
    detailed reports submitted to the Company by its independent
    public accountants in connection with each annual audit or
    interim review of the books of the Company or its
    Subsidiaries made by such accountants;

         (f)  promptly upon transmission thereof, copies of all
    financial statements, proxy statements, notices and reports
    as the Company shall send to its shareholders and of all
    regular or periodic reports which it is or may be required
    to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any
    governmental department, bureau, commission or agency
    succeeding to the functions of the Securities and Exchange
    Commission; and

         (g)  with reasonable promptness, such other financial
    data as any Bank may reasonably request.

         Section 8.02.  Inspection of Property.  The Company
will permit any Person designated by a Bank in writing, to visit
and inspect any of the properties, corporate books and financial
records of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to make copies
thereof and take extracts therefrom and to discuss the affairs,
finances and accounts of any such corporations with the principal
officers of the Company or its Subsidiaries, all at such
reasonable times and as often as such Bank may reasonably
request.

         Section 8.03.  Maintenance of Insurance.  The Company
and each Subsidiary will maintain insurance in such amounts and
against such liabilities and hazards as customarily is maintained
by other companies operating similar businesses and, upon any
Bank's written request, the Company will promptly provide to the
Agent an insurance certificate naming the Agent as loss payee
under such insurance.

         Section 8.04.  Funded Debt Ratio.  The Company shall
maintain and operate its business in a manner to insure that its
Funded Debt Ratio measured at the end of each fiscal quarter for
the four consecutive quarters ending on such date is less than
4.00:1.00.

         Section 8.05.  Leverage Ratio.  The Company shall
maintain and operate its business in such a manner to insure a
ratio measured at the end of each fiscal quarter of (i) Funded
Debt to (ii) the sum of Funded Debt plus the consolidated net
worth of the Company and its Subsidiaries, of less than 0.50:1.00
(i.e., 50%).

         Section 8.06.  Account Verification.  Upon the request
of any Bank, made at reasonable intervals and on a reasonable
basis, the Company will mail letters to selected lease customers
or account debtors requesting them to verify the status of their
leases or accounts, with responses to be returned directly to
each Bank.

         Section 8.07.  Fixed Charge Coverage.  The Company will
operate its business in such a manner to insure that the
summation of (i) net income before income taxes, plus
(ii) interest expense, plus (iii) rental and lease expense are
greater than 150% of the summation of (i) interest expense, plus
(ii) rental and lease expense, all determined on a consolidated
basis for the Company and its Subsidiaries.  Compliance with the
aforementioned fixed charge coverage ratio will be determined at
the end of each fiscal quarter of the Company and taking into
account operations during the four consecutive fiscal quarters
ending on such date.  The following mathematical formula
illustrates the Company's fixed charge coverage obligation:

    Pretax Net   Interest    Rental and Lease
    Income  +    Expense  +  Expense             >    1.50
    Interest Expense      +  Rental and Lease
                             Expense
         
         Section 8.08.  ERISA.  The Company and each Subsidiary
will:

         (a)  At all times, make prompt payment of contributions
    required to meet the minimum funding standard set forth in
    ERISA with respect to its Plans;

         (b)  Notify Banks and the Agent immediately of any
    fact, including, but not limited to, any Reportable Event
    arising in connection with any of its Plans which might
    constitute grounds for termination thereof by the PBGC or
    for the appointment by the appropriate United States
    District Court of a trustee to administer such Plan,
    together with a statement, if requested by Banks, as to the
    reasons therefor and the action, if any, which the Company
    or any of its Subsidiaries proposes to take with respect
    thereto; and

         (c)  Furnish to Banks or the Agent, upon request, such
    additional information concerning any of its Plans as may be
    reasonably requested.

         Section 8.09.  Payment.  The Company will pay all sums

                                 THE AGENT

         Section 11.01.  Appointment of Agent.  Each Bank hereby
designates TCB as Agent to administer all matters concerning the
Revolving Credit Loans and the Term Loans and to act as herein
specified.  Each Bank hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each
holder of any Revolving Credit Note and Term Note by the ac-

ceptance of such Note shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize,
the Agent to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions
of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other
instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein, and to
exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and
thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the
Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as
are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Agent may perform any of
its duties hereunder by or through their agents or employees.

         Section 11.02.  Authorization of Agent with Respect to
the Guaranty Agreement.  (a) Each Bank hereby authorizes the
Agent to accept the Guaranty Agreement substantially in the form
attached hereto, and to take all action contemplated thereby. 
All rights and remedies under the Guaranty Agreement may be
exercised by the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks
and the other beneficiaries thereof upon the terms thereof.  The
Banks further agree that the Agent may assign its rights and
obligations under the Guaranty Agreement to any affiliate of the
Agent or to any trustee, if necessary or appropriate under
applicable law, which assignee in each such case shall (subject
to compliance with any requirements of applicable law governing
the assignment of such Guaranty Agreement) be entitled to all the
rights of the Agent under and with respect to the Guaranty
Agreement.

         (b)  In each circumstance where, under any provision of
the Guaranty Agreement, the Agent shall have the right to grant
or withhold any consent, exercise any remedy, make any
determination or direct any action by the Agent under such
Guaranty Agreement, the Agent shall act in respect of such
consent, exercise of remedies, determination or action, as the
case may be, with the consent of and at the direction of the
Required Banks; provided, however, that no such consent of the
Required Banks shall be required with respect to any consent,
determination or other matter that is, in the Agent's judgment,
ministerial or administrative in nature.  In each circumstance
where any consent of or direction from the Required Banks is
required, the Agent shall send to the Banks a notice setting
forth a description in reasonable detail of the matter as to
which consent or direction is requested and the Agent's proposed
course of action with respect thereto.  In the event the Agent
shall not have received a response from any Bank within five (5)
Business Days after such Bank's receipt of such notice, such Bank
shall be deemed to have agreed to the course of action proposed
by the Agent.

         Section 11.03.  Nature of Duties of Agent.  The Agent
shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly
set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  None
of the Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors,
employees or agents shall be liable for any action taken or
omitted by it as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless
caused by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
The duties of the Agent shall be ministerial and administrative
in nature; the Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a
fiduciary relationship in respect of any Bank; and nothing in
this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall be so
construed as to impose upon the Agent any obligations in respect
of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents except as expressly
set forth herein.

         Section 11.04.  Lack of Reliance on the Agent.

         (a)  Independently and without reliance upon the Agent,
each Bank to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall
continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the
financial condition and affairs of the Credit Parties in
connection with the taking or not taking of any action in
connection herewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the
creditworthiness of the Credit Parties, and, except as expressly
provided in this Agreement, the Agent shall have no duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to
provide any Bank with any credit or other information with
respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the
making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter.

         (b)  The Agent shall not be responsible to any Bank for
any recitals, statements, information, representations or
warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other
writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution,
effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability,
collectibility, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement, the
Notes, the Guaranty Agreement or any other documents contemplated
hereby or thereby, or the financial condition of the Credit
Parties, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the
performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or con-

ditions of this Agreement, the Notes, the Guaranty Agreement or
the other documents contemplated hereby or thereby, or the
financial condition of the Credit Parties, or the existence or
possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.

         Section 11.05.  Certain Rights of the Agent.  If the
Agent shall request instructions from the Required Banks with re-

spect to any action or actions (including the failure to act) in
connection with this Agreement, the Agent shall be entitled to
refrain from such act or taking such act, unless and until the
Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Banks;
and the Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason
of so refraining.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank shall
have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result
of the Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in
accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks; provided,
however, that the Agent shall not be required to act or not act
in accordance with any instructions of the Banks if to do so
would expose the Agent to personal liability or would be contrary
to any Loan Document or to applicable law.  

         Section 11.06.  Reliance by Agent.  The Agent shall be
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon
any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate,
telex, teletype or telecopier message, cable gram, radiogram,
order or other documentary, teletransmission or telephone message
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed,
sent or made by the proper Person.  The Agent may consult with
legal counsel (including in-house legal counsel and counsel for
any Credit Party), in-house accountants, independent public
accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good
faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants
or experts.

         Section 11.07.  Indemnification of Agent.  To the ex-

tent the Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Credit
Parties for amounts advanced with respect to the Revolving Credit
Commitments and the Term Loans, each Bank will reimburse and
indemnify the Agent, ratably according to the respective amounts
of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans (or if
no amounts are outstanding, ratably in accordance with the
Revolving Credit Commitments), in either case, for and against
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel
fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against the Agent in performing its duties hereunder, in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents; provided that no Bank shall be liable to the Agent for
any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or
willful misconduct.

         Section 11.08.  The Agent in its Individual Capacity. 
With respect to its obligation to lend under this Agreement, the
Loans made by it and the Notes issued to it, the Agent shall have
the same rights, obligations and powers hereunder as any other
Bank or holder of a Note and may exercise the same as though it
were not performing the duties specified herein; and the terms
"Banks", "Required Banks", "holders of Notes", or any similar
terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates,
include the Agent in its individual capacity.  The Agent may
accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any
kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with
the Companies, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates as if
it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may
accept fees and other consideration from the Company and its
Subsidiaries for services in connection with this Agreement and
otherwise without having to account for the same to the Banks.

         Section 11.09.  Holders of Notes.  The Agent may deem
and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all
purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the
assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the
Agent.  Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at
the time of making such request or giving such authority or
consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and
binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such
Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

         Section 11.10.  Successor Agent.

         (a)  The Agent may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to the Banks and the Company and may be removed at
any time with or without cause by Banks holding at least 51% of
(i) the amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Commitments
plus (ii) the principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans and
Term Loans for any Bank whose Revolving Credit Commitment has
been terminated (the "Agent Appointment Banks"); provided,
however, the Agent may not resign or be removed until a successor
Agent has been appointed and shall have accepted such
appointment.  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Agent
Appointment Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor
Agent subject to the Company's prior written approval.  If no
successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Agent
Appointment Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment,
within 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of
resignation or the Agent Appointment Banks' removal of the
retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the
Banks, appoint a successor Agent subject to the Company's prior
written approval, which shall be a bank which maintains an office
in the United States, or a commercial bank organized under the
laws of the United States of America or any State thereof, or any
Affiliate of such bank, having a combined capital and surplus of
at least $100,000,000.  In the event that the Agent is no longer
a Bank hereunder with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments
or Term Loans, the Agent shall promptly resign as Agent.

         (b)  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the
Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the
retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations under this Agreement.  After any retiring Agent's
resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this
Article XI shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this
Agreement.



                                ARTICLE XII

                               MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 12.01.  Notices.  All notices, requests and
other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing
(including bank wire, telex, telecopy or similar teletransmission
or writing) and shall be given to such party at its address set
forth on the signature pages hereof, or such other address as
such party may hereafter specify by notice to the Agent and the
Company.  Each such notice, request or other communication shall
be effective if given by mail, 72 hours after such communication
is deposited in the mails with first class postage prepaid,
addressed as aforesaid, or if given by any other means
(including, without limitation, by air courier), when delivered
or received at the address specified in this Section; provided
that notices to the Agent shall not be effective until received.

         Section 12.02.  Amendments, Etc.  No amendment or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, nor consent to any departure by any Credit Party
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall
be in writing and signed by the Required Banks, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided
that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and
signed by all the Banks do any of the following:  (i) waive any
of the conditions specified in Section 6.01 or 6.02, (ii)
increase the Revolving Credit Commitments or other contractual
obligations to the Company under this Agreement, (iii) reduce the
principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees hereunder,
(iv) postpone any date fixed for the payment in respect of
principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees hereunder,
(v) change the percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitments or
of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the
number or identity of Banks which shall be required for the Banks
or any of them to take any action hereunder, (vi) agree to re-

lease any Guarantor from its obligations under any Guaranty
Agreement, (vii) modify the definition of "Required Banks," or
(viii) modify this Section 12.02.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and
signed by the Agent in addition to the Banks required hereinabove
to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Agent
under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.

         Section 12.03.  No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No
failure or delay on the part of the Agent, any Bank or any holder
of a Note in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, and no course of dealing between any
Credit Party and the Agent, any Bank or the holder of any Note
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any
other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy hereunder or
thereunder.  The rights and remedies herein expressly provided
are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which
the Agent, any Bank or the holder of any Note would otherwise
have.  No notice to or demand on any Credit Party not required
hereunder or under any other Loan Document in any case shall
entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand
in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the
rights of the Agent, the Banks or the holder of any Note to any
other or further action in any circumstances without notice or
demand.

         Section 12.04.  Payment of Expenses, Etc.  The Company
shall:

        (i)   whether or not the transactions hereby
    contemplated are consummated, pay all reasonable,
    out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent in the
    administration (both before and after the execution hereof
    and including reasonable expenses actually incurred relating
    to advice of counsel as to the rights and duties of the
    Agent and the Banks with respect thereto) of, and in
    connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of,
    preservation of rights under, enforcement of, and, after a
    Default or Event of Default, refinancing, renegotiation or
    restructuring of, this Agreement and the other Loan
    Documents and the documents and instruments referred to
    therein, and any amendment, waiver or consent relating
    thereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees
    actually incurred and disbursements of counsel for the
    Agent), and in connection with the release of the Prior
    Liens (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees
    actually incurred and disbursements of counsel for the
    Agent), and in the case of enforcement of this Agreement or
    any Loan Document after an Event of Default, all such
    reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including,
    without limitation, the reasonable fees actually incurred
    and disbursements of both in-house and outside counsel), for
    any of the Banks; 

       (ii)   subject, in the case of certain Taxes, to the
    applicable provisions of Section 5.07(b), pay and hold each
    of the Banks harmless from and against any and all present
    and future stamp, documentary, and other similar Taxes with
    respect to this Agreement, the Notes and any other Loan
    Documents, or any payments due thereunder, and save each
    Bank harmless from and against any and all liabilities with
    respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay
    such Taxes; and

      (iii)   indemnify the Agent and each Bank and their
    respective officers, directors, employees, representatives
    and agents from, and hold each of them harmless against, any
    and all costs, losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
    expenses incurred by any of them (whether or not any of them
    is designated a party thereto) (an "Indemnitee") arising out
    of or by reason of any investigation, litigation or other
    proceeding related to any actual or proposed use of the
    proceeds of any of the Loans or any Credit Party's entering
    into and performing of the Agreement, the Notes, or the
    other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the
    reasonable fees actually incurred and disbursements of
    counsel (including foreign counsel) incurred in connection
    with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding;
    provided, however, the Company shall not be obligated to
    indemnify any Indemnitee for any of the foregoing arising
    out of such Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful
    misconduct.

If and to the extent that the obligations of the Company under
this Section 12.04 are unenforceable for any reason, the Company
hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and
satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under
applicable law.  

         Section 12.05.  Right of Setoff.  In addition to and
not in limitation of all rights of offset that any Bank or other
holder of a Note may have under applicable law, each Bank or
other holder of a Note shall, upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default and whether or not such Bank or such holder has made any
demand or any Credit Party's obligations are matured, have the
right to appropriate and apply to the payment of any Credit
Party's obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,
all deposits of any Credit Party (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) then or thereafter held by and
other indebtedness or property then or thereafter owing by such
Bank or other holder to any Credit Party, whether or not related
to this Agreement or any transaction hereunder.

         Section 12.06.  Benefit of Agreement.

         (a)  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors
and assigns of the parties hereto, provided that the Company may
not assign or transfer any of its interest hereunder without the
prior written consent of the Banks, and no Bank may assign or
transfer any of its interest hereunder without the prior written
consent of the Agent and the Company, except to any Affiliate of
such Bank.

         (b)  Any Bank may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to
or for the account of, the office of an Affiliate of such Bank.

         Section 12.07.  Notification of Event of Default.  Upon
its receiving notice thereof, each Bank shall promptly notify the
other Banks and the Agent of the occurrence of an Event of
Default or an "Event of Default" under the terms of the Guaranty
Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument required
hereunder.

         Section 12.08.  Governing Law; Submission to
Jurisdiction.

         (a)  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF
THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND UNDER THE NOTES SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT
TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF) OF THE STATE OF
GEORGIA.

         (b)  ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO
THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE
BROUGHT IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF FULTON COUNTY, GEORGIA, OR ANY
OTHER COURT OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA SITTING IN FULTON COUNTY OR
OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF
GEORGIA, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE
COMPANY HEREBY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY,
GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID
COURTS.  THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE TRIAL BY
JURY, AND THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF
VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT
MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING IN SUCH RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS.

         (c)  Nothing herein shall affect the right of the
Agent, any Bank, any holder of a Note or any Credit Party to
serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence
legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Company in any
other jurisdiction.

         Section 12.09.  Independent Nature of Banks' Rights. 
The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Bank shall be a
separate and independent debt, and each Bank shall be entitled to
protect and enforce its rights pursuant to this Agreement and its
Notes, and it shall not be necessary for any other Bank to be
joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

         Section 12.10.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by the different
parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which
shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

         Section 12.11.  Effectiveness; Survival.  

         (a)  This Agreement shall become effective on the date
on which all of the parties hereto shall have signed a copy
hereof (whether the same or different copies) and shall have
delivered the same to the Agent pursuant to Section 12.01 or, in
the case of the Banks, shall have given to the Agent written or
telex notice (actually received) that the same has been signed
and mailed to them.  

         (b)  The obligations of the Company under Sections
5.07(b), 5.10, 5.12, 5.13, 5.17 and 12.04 hereof shall survive
the payment in full of the Notes after the later of the Revolving
Credit Termination Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date.  All
representations and warranties made herein, in the certificates,
reports, notices, and other documents delivered pursuant to this
Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and such other agreements
and documents, the making of the Loans hereunder, and the
execution and delivery of the Notes.

         Section 12.12.  Severability.  In case any provision in
or obligation under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, 
in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or
obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.

         Section 12.13.  Independence of Covenants.  All
covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if
a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such
covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception
to, or be otherwise within the limitation of, another covenant,
shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of
Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

         Section 12.14.  Change in Accounting Principles, Fiscal
Year or Tax Laws.  If (i) any preparation of the financial
statements referred to in Section 8.01 hereafter occasioned by
the promulgation of rules, regulations, pronouncements and
opinions by or required by the Financial Accounting Standards
Board or the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts (or
successors thereto or agencies with similar functions) result in
a material change in the method of calculation of financial
covenants, standards or terms found in this Agreement, (ii) there
is any change in the Company's fiscal quarter or fiscal year, or
(iii) there is a material change in federal tax laws which
materially affects any of the ability of the Company and its
Subsidiaries to comply with the financial covenants, standards or
terms found in this Agreement, the Company and the Required Banks
agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such
provisions so as to equitably reflect such changes with the de-

sired result that the criteria for evaluating any of the
financial condition of the Companies shall be the same after such
changes as if such changes had not been made.  Unless and until
such provisions have been so amended, the provisions of this
Agreement shall govern.  

         Section 12.15.  Headings Descriptive; Entire Agreement. 
  The headings of the several sections and subsections of this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any
way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this
Agreement.  This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the
agreements and documents required to be delivered pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the
parties hereto and thereto regarding the subject matters hereof
and thereof and supersede all prior agreements, representations
and understandings related to such subject matters.

         Section 12.16  Usury.  It is the intent of the parties
hereto not to violate any federal or state law, rule or
regulation pertaining either to usury or to the contracting for
or charging or collecting of interest, and the Company and the
Banks agree that, should any provision of this Agreement or of
the Notes, or any act performed hereunder or thereunder, violate
any such law, rule or regulation, then the excess of interest
contracted for or charged or collected over the maximum lawful
rate of interest shall be applied to the outstanding principal
indebtedness due to the Banks by the Company under this
Agreement.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this
Agreement to be executed and attested to by their duly authorized
officers as of the date and year first above written.

                            GUARANTY AGREEMENT




THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT
("Guaranty Agreement") dated as of January 6, 1995, by and among
AARON INVESTMENT COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the
"Guarantor"), AARON ENTERPRISES, INC., a Georgia corporation and
all other Subsidiaries of Aaron Rents, Inc., a Georgia
corporation (the "Company"), now existing or hereafter created,
for the benefit of TRUST COMPANY BANK, a Georgia banking
corporation ("TCB"), FIRST UNION NATIONAL BANK OF GEORGIA, a
national banking association ("First Union") and Bank of America
Illinois, an Illinois banking corporation ("Bank of America")
(collectively, the "Banks" and individually, a "Bank"), and TRUST
COMPANY BANK, as agent for the Banks (in such capacity, the
"Agent");


                           W I T N E S S E T H:


                                    WHEREAS, the Company and the
Banks have entered into that certain Second Amended and Restated
Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement dated as of the date
hereof (the "Loan Agreement"); capitalized terms used herein and
not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in
the Loan Agreement;

                                    WHEREAS, pursuant to the Loan
Agreement, the Banks have established a revolving credit in favor
of the Company not to exceed $75,000,000 in aggregate principal
at any one time outstanding, evidenced by three certain Revolving
Credit Notes (each a "Revolving Credit Note"), two in the
principal amount of $30,000,000, each dated as of the date
hereof, executed by the Company in favor of each of TCB and First
Union, and one in the principal amount of $15,000,000, dated as
of the date hereof, executed by the Company in favor of Bank of
America, all convertible into term loans evidenced by term notes
at the option of the Banks (the "Term Notes");

                                     WHEREAS, Trust Company Bank
has established a cash management line of credit in favor of the
Company not to exceed $3,000,000 in principal amount at any one
time outstanding, evidenced by a certain Cash Management Line of
Credit Note, dated as of the date hereof, executed by the Company
in favor of Trust Company Bank (the Revolving Credit Notes, the
Term Notes and the Cash Management Line of Credit Note are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Notes");

                                   WHEREAS, the Company owns one
hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital
stock of the Guarantors, and although the Guarantors are separate
legal entities, the making of the advances by the Banks to the
Company and the other extensions of credit under the Loan
Agreement provide a direct, beneficial, economic advantage to the
Guarantors as a result of their relationship to the Company; and 

                                   WHEREAS, it is a condition
precedent to the making of Revolving Credit Loans and Cash
Management Loans under the Loan Agreement that the Guarantors
execute this Guaranty Agreement, and the Guarantors wish to
execute this Guaranty Agreement in satisfaction of said condition
precedent; 

                                   NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and for other valuable
consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby
acknowledged, the Guarantors hereby agree as follows:


                                 ARTICLE I

                         Covenants and Agreements

Section 1.1.  The Guarantors
hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantee to the Banks the full and prompt payment of all
advances and interest thereon under each of the Notes, and all
other amounts due and payable by the Company under the terms of
the Loan Agreement, when and as the same shall become due,
whether at the stated maturity thereof, by acceleration or
otherwise; and agree to pay all reasonable expenses and charges
(including court costs and actual and reasonable attorneys' fees
of both in-house counsel and outside counsel) paid or incurred by
the Agent or any Bank in realizing upon any of the payments
hereby guaranteed or in enforcing this Guaranty Agreement.  All
payments by the Guarantors shall be paid in lawful money of the
United States of America.

If the Company shall at any
time default in making any of the payments required to be made
under the Loan Agreement as and when the same shall become due
and payable such that there shall have occurred an "Event of
Default" under the Loan Agreement, the Guarantors shall
immediately make such payments or cause such payments to be made.

Each and every default in
payment of the advances and the interest thereon under each of
the Notes shall give rise to a separate cause of action
hereunder, and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each
cause of action arises.  The obligations guaranteed by the
Guarantors under this Section 1.1 are sometimes hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Guaranteed Obligations."

Section 1.2.  The Guarantors
additionally hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantee the full and prompt performance by the
Company of all of the other covenants and obligations on the part
of the Company under the Loan Agreement.  If the Company shall at
any time default in the performance of any such other covenant or
obligation contained in the Loan Agreement such that an "Event of
Default" under the Loan Agreement shall have occurred, the
Guarantors will immediately perform the same or cause the same to
be performed.

Section 1.3.  The obligations
of the Guarantors under this Guaranty Agreement shall include the
obligation to reimburse the Banks for any preferential payments
received from the Company under or pursuant to the Loan Agreement
or this Guaranty Agreement in the event that the Company becomes
a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code and such payment
has been determined by the court having jurisdiction over the
matter to be a preferential payment.  Notwithstanding anything in
this Guaranty Agreement to the contrary, if a bankruptcy petition
has been filed by or against the Company during any preferential
period (as established by the United States Bankruptcy Court or
other applicable law) and the Company has made payments to the
Banks during said preferential period, this Guaranty Agreement
shall not be terminated unless and until a final, nonappealable
decision by a court of competent jurisdiction or other agreement
has been entered or reached pursuant to which the Banks shall be
entitled to retain all such moneys paid during such preferential
period.

Section 1.4.  The obligations
of the Guarantors under this Guaranty Agreement shall be primary,
absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and
effect until the Guaranteed Obligations or any other liability
guaranteed hereby shall have been paid or provided for,
irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of any
of the Notes or the Loan Agreement and, until such payment, shall
not be affected, modified or impaired upon the happening from
time to time of any event, including, without limitation, any of
the following, whether or not with notice to or the consent of
the Guarantors:

                               by law, the failure to give notice
                               to the Guarantors of the occurrence
                               of an Event of Default under the
                               terms and provisions of this

                               (d)  the extension of the time
                               for payment of any of the advances
                               or interest thereon under any of

                               exercise any right, power or remedy
                               conferred on the Banks in this

                               proceedings affecting the
                               Guarantors or the Banks or any of
                               their assets, or any allegation or
                               contest of the validity of this
                               Guaranty Agreement in any such
                               proceeding or the sale or other
                               disposition of all or substantially

                               Guarantors; provided, however, that
                               this Guaranty Agreement shall
                               continue to be effective or be

                               thereof, pursuant to Section 1.1

                               otherwise, as though such payment

                               (i)  to the extent permitted
                               by applicable law, the release or
                               discharge of the Guarantors from
                               the performance or observance of
                               any obligation, covenant or
                               agreement contained in this
                               Guaranty Agreement by operation of
                               law;

                               (j)  the default or failure of
                               the Guarantors to fully perform any
                               of the obligations thereof set
                               forth in this Guaranty Agreement;

                               (k)  the invalidity or
                               unenforceability of the Loan
                               Agreement or any of the Notes;

                               (l)  the release, surrender or
                               substitution, either with or
                               without consideration, of any
                               property, collateral or other
                               security of any kind or nature
                               whatsoever held by the Banks, or
                               held by any other Person on behalf
                               of or for the account of the Banks,
                               securing any obligation covered by
                               or under this Guaranty Agreement;

                               (m)  the lack of capacity or
                               authority on the part of the Banks,
                               the Company or the Guarantors to
                               perform their obligations under
                               this Guaranty Agreement, the Loan
                               Agreement or any of the Notes;

                               (n)  the creation or incurring
                               of any new or additional obligation
                               of the Banks, the Company or the
                               Guarantors under this Guaranty
                               Agreement or the Loan Agreement;

                               (o)  the breach of any duty on
                               the part of the Banks, the Company,
                               or any other Person to disclose to
                               the Guarantors any facts which such
                               Person may now or hereafter know
                               regardless of whether any such
                               Person has reason to believe that
                               any such facts materially increase
                               the risk beyond which the
                               Guarantors intends to assume, and
                               regardless of whether any such
                               Person has reason to believe that
                               such facts are unknown to the
                               Guarantors; or

                               (p)  the existence of any
                               defense based upon an election of
                               remedies by the Banks.

Section 1.5.  In the event of
a default in payment of the advances under any of the Notes when
and as the same shall become due, whether at the stated maturity
thereof, by acceleration or otherwise, or in the event of a
default in the payment of any interest on any of the Notes when
and as the same shall become due, or in the event of a default in
the payment of any other amount due under the Loan Agreement, and
in each instance the expiration of any applicable cure period
provided for in the Loan Agreement, the Agent, subject to the
unanimous consent of the Banks, may proceed hereunder, and the
Agent, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to proceed
first and directly against any Guarantors, its successors and
assigns, under this Guaranty Agreement without proceeding against
the Company or any other Guarantor, or exhausting any other
remedies which it may have and without resorting to any other
security held by the Agent.

Section 1.6.  The Guarantors
hereby expressly waive notice in writing, or otherwise, from the
Banks of their acceptance and reliance on this Guaranty
Agreement.  The Guarantors agree to pay all reasonable costs,
expenses and fees, including all actual and reasonable attorneys'
fees of both in-house counsel and outside counsel, which may be
incurred by the Agent in enforcing or attempting to enforce this
Guaranty Agreement following any default on the part of any
Guarantor hereunder, whether the same shall be enforced by suit
or otherwise.

Section 1.7.  The Guarantors
hereby acknowledge that there may be future advances by the Banks
to or for the benefit of the Company (although the Banks may be
under no obligation to make such advances) and that the number
and amount of the liabilities guaranteed hereby may fluctuate
from time to time hereafter. Each Guarantor expressly agrees that
its obligations hereunder shall remain absolute, primary and
unconditional notwithstanding such future advances and
fluctuations, if any, and agree that, in any event, this
agreement is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in force at
all times hereafter, whether there are any liabilities
outstanding or not.

Section 1.8.  (a)  It is the
intent of the Guarantors, the Agent and the Banks that each
Guarantor's maximum obligations hereunder shall be, but not in
excess of:

           (i)     in a case or proceeding commenced by or
    against such Guarantor under the Bankruptcy Code on or
    within one year from the date on which any of the Guaranteed
    Obligations are incurred, the maximum amount which would not
    otherwise cause the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other
    obligations of such Guarantor to the Banks) to be avoidable
    or unenforceable against such Guarantor under (A) Section
    548 of the Bankruptcy Code or (B) any state fraudulent
    transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in
    such case or proceeding by virtue of Section 544 of the
    Bankruptcy Code; or

          (ii)     in a case or proceeding commenced by or
    against such Guarantor under the Bankruptcy Code subsequent
    to one year from the date on which any of the Guaranteed
    Obligations are incurred, the maximum amount which would not
    otherwise cause the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other
    obligations of such Guarantor to the Banks) to be avoidable
    or unenforceable against such Guarantor under any state
    fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute
    applied in any such case or proceeding by virtue of Section
    544 of the Bankruptcy Code; or

         (iii)     in a case or proceeding commenced by or
    against such Guarantor under any law, statute or regulation
    other than the Bankruptcy Code (including, without
    limitation, any other bankruptcy, reorganization,
    arrangement, moratorium, readjustment of debt, dissolution,
    liquidation or similar debtor relief laws), the maximum
    amount which would not otherwise cause the Guaranteed
    Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to
    the Banks) to be avoidable or unenforceable against the
    Guarantor under such law, statute or regulation including,
    without limitation, any state fraudulent transfer or
    fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in any such
    case or proceeding.

(The substantive laws under which the possible avoidance or
unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other
obligations of such Guarantor to the Banks) shall be determined
in any such case or proceeding shall hereinafter be referred to
as the "Avoidance Provisions").

         (b)  To the end set forth in Section 1.8(a), but only
    to the extent that the Guaranteed Obligations would
    otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance
    Provisions if any Guarantor is not deemed to have received
    valuable consideration, fair value or reasonably equivalent
    value for the Guaranteed Obligations, or if the Guaranteed
    Obligations would render such Guarantor insolvent, or leave
    such Guarantor with an unreasonably small capital to conduct
    its business, or cause such Guarantor to have incurred debts
    (or to have intended to have incurred debts) beyond its
    ability to pay such debts as they mature, in each case as of
    the time any of the Guaranteed Obligations are deemed to
    have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions and after
    giving effect to the contribution by such Guarantor, the
    maximum Guaranteed Obligations for which any Guarantor shall
    be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which,
    after giving effect thereto, would not cause the Guaranteed
    Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to
    the Banks), as so reduced, to be subject to avoidance under
    the Avoidance Provisions.  This Section 1.8(b) is intended
    solely to preserve the rights of the Guaranteed Parties
    hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the
    Guaranteed Obligations of any Guarantor to be subject to
    avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and neither the
    Guarantors nor any other Person shall have any right or
    claim under this Section 1.8 as against the Guaranteed
    Parties that would not otherwise be available to such Person
    under the Avoidance Provisions.


                                ARTICLE II

                             Special Covenants

         Section 2.1.  Any notices served upon any Guarantor
shall be sent by registered or certified mail to such Guarantor
at the address set forth below, or to such other address as may
be furnished by such Guarantor to the Agent in writing.

         Section 2.2.  Any rights that any Guarantor may have
against the Company arising out of the Guaranty Agreement or out
of the Loan Agreement or otherwise shall be subordinate to the
rights of the Banks arising out of the Guaranty Agreement or the
Loan Agreement, and no Guarantor shall exercise or assert any
subrogation rights against the Company prior to payment in full
of the Guaranteed Obligations so long as an Event of Default
hereunder shall have occurred and is continuing.


                                ARTICLE III

                        Events of Default; Remedies

         Section 3.1.  The following shall be "Events of
Default" under this Guaranty Agreement:

         (1)  the failure in any material respect of any
    Guarantor to abide by or perform its obligations under
    Section 4.7 hereof within any applicable grace period given
    the Company to perform a particular duty or obligation under
    the Loan Agreement;

         (2)  the failure in any material respect of any
    Guarantor to abide by or perform any of the other covenants
    on the part of such Guarantor contained herein;

         (3)  the discovery by the Agent that any statement,
    representation or warranty of any Guarantor contained herein
    is false, misleading or erroneous in any material respect;
    or

         (4)  the occurrence and continuance of an "Event of
    Default" under the Loan Agreement.

         Section 3.2.  If an Event of Default hereunder shall
occur, the Agent, subject to the unanimous consent of the Banks,
shall be entitled to exercise all remedies available against any
Guarantor at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, the
recovery of damages for the breach hereof or specific enforcement
of this Guaranty Agreement, or both, and to recover from any
Guarantor all costs and expenses of exercising such remedies
hereunder, including actual and reasonable attorneys' fees and
actual costs, whether or not the exercise of such remedies
involved litigation.  EACH GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT THE
PROPER VENUE FOR ANY ACTION WHICH MAY BE BROUGHT UNDER THIS
GUARANTY AGREEMENT, IN ADDITION TO ANY OTHER VENUE PERMITTED BY
LAW, SHALL BE IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA.  EACH GUARANTOR FURTHER
AGREES THAT ANY SUIT HEREUNDER MAY BE BROUGHT IN EITHER THE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA
OR THE SUPERIOR COURT OF FULTON COUNTY, GEORGIA.  SHOULD IT
BECOME NECESSARY FOR THE AGENT TO INSTITUTE ANY ACTION UNDER THIS
GUARANTY AGREEMENT, EACH GUARANTOR (i) DOES HEREBY SUBMIT ITSELF
TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT SITTING IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA
(AND ANY COURT OF APPEALS FROM ANY SUCH COURT) IN REGARD TO ANY
DISPUTE ARISING UNDER THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT; AND (ii) AGREES
THAT ENTRY OF ANY FINAL AND NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY ANY SUCH
COURT AND ARISING UNDER THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT, TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SHALL BE BINDING UPON AND SHALL BE
ENTITLED TO THE FULL FAITH AND CREDIT OF THE COURT OF ANY STATE,
TERRITORY OR POSSESSION OF THE UNITED STATES SHOULD THE AGENT
FIND IT NECESSARY TO ENFORCE SAID JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH STATE,
TERRITORY OR POSSESSION AGAINST SUCH GUARANTOR.


                                ARTICLE IV

                               Miscellaneous

         Section 4.1.  The obligations of each Guarantor
hereunder shall arise absolutely and unconditionally when this
Guaranty Agreement is executed and delivered to the Banks.

         Section 4.2.  No remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Agent is intended to be exclusive of any other
available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy
shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other
remedy given under this Guaranty Agreement, or now, or hereafter,
existing at law, or in equity, or by statute.  THIS GUARANTY
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA.  No delay or omission to
exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission
or failure or performance hereunder shall impair any such right
or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any
such right and power may be exercised from time to time as often
as may be deemed expedient.  In order to entitle the Agent to
exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Guaranty Agreement, it
shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice
as may be herein expressly required.  In the event any provision
contained in this Guaranty Agreement should be breached by any
party and thereafter duly waived by the other party so empowered
to act, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so
waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach
hereunder.  No waiver, amendment, release or modification of this
Guaranty Agreement shall be established by conduct, custom or
course of dealing, but solely by an instrument in writing duly
executed by the parties thereunto, duly authorized by this
Guaranty Agreement.

         Section 4.3.  This Guaranty Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and may be executed
simultaneously in several counterparts, each of which shall be

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, AARON RENTS, INC.,
a Georgia corporation (the "Company"), promises to pay to the
order of __________________ (the "Bank") at its office at 
                                                              ,
or at such other place as the holder hereof shall designate to
the Company in writing, in immediately available funds in lawful
money of the United States of America, on the sooner of (i) the
Revolving Credit Termination Date (as defined in the Loan
Agreement referenced below), (ii) the Conversion Date (as defined
in the Loan Agreement referenced below) and (iii) acceleration of
the indebtedness evidenced by this Note as hereinafter provided,
the lesser of the principal sum of ______________ Dollars
($__________) or so much thereof as shall have been advanced
thereunder in accordance with that certain Second Amended and
Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement, dated as of
the January 6, 1995, among the Company, Trust Company Bank, a
Georgia banking corporation ("TCB"), First Union National Bank of
Georgia, a national banking association ("First Union"), Bank of
America Illinois, an Illinois banking corporation ("Bank of
America"), and TCB as agent for itself, Bank of America and First
Union (as hereafter amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise
modified from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"), and not
theretofore repaid, as shown on the grid schedule attached hereto
(the "Grid Schedule").

         In addition to principal, the Company agrees to pay
interest on the principal amounts disbursed hereunder from time
to time from the date of disbursement until paid in full at such
rates of interest per annum and upon such dates as set forth in
Section 5.03 of the Loan Agreement, computed on the basis of the
actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year.  Such interest
is to be paid to the Bank at the address set forth above in the
first paragraph of this Note or at such other place as the holder
hereof may designate by notice in writing to the Company.

         This Revolving Credit Note ("Note") evidences Revolving
Credit Loans made by the Bank to the Company pursuant to the
terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement to which reference is
hereby made for a full and complete description of such terms and
conditions.  All capitalized terms used in this Note shall have
the same meanings as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

         The Bank shall at all times have a right of set-off
against any deposit balances of Company in the possession of the
Bank and the Bank may apply the same against payment of this Note
in accordance with the Loan Agreement.  The payment of any
indebtedness evidenced by this Note prior to the Revolving Credit
Termination Date or the Conversion Date shall not affect the
enforceability of this Note as to any future, different or other
indebtedness incurred hereunder by the Company.  In the event the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note is collected by legal action
or through an attorney-at-law, the Bank shall be entitled to
recover from Company all costs of collection, including, without
limitation, actual and reasonable attorneys' fees if collected by
or through an attorney-at-law.

Company acknowledges that the actual crediting of the
amount of any disbursement under the Loan Agreement to an account
of Company or recording such amount in the Grid Schedule shall,
in the absence of manifest error, constitute presumptive evidence
of such disbursement and that such advance was made and borrowed
under the Loan Agreement.  Such account records or Grid Schedule
shall constitute, in the absence of manifest error, presumptive
evidence of principal amounts outstanding and the payments made
under the Agreement at any time and from time to time, provided
that the failure of Bank to record on the Grid Schedule or in
such account the type or amount of any advance shall not affect
the obligation of the undersigned to repay such amount together
with interest thereon in accordance with this Note and the Loan
Agreement.

Upon the existence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default as defined in the Loan Agreement, the principal
and all accrued interest hereof shall automatically become, or
may be declared, due and payable in the manner and with the
effect provided in the Loan Agreement.

Prepayment of this Note in part or in whole is
permitted subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.06 of
the Loan Agreement.

Failure or forbearance of the Bank to exercise any
right hereunder, or otherwise granted by the Loan Agreement or by
law, shall not affect or release the liability of the Company
hereunder, and shall not constitute a waiver of such right 
unless so stated by the Bank in writing.  THIS NOTE IS EXECUTED
AND DELIVERED PURSUANT TO, AND ITS PERFORMANCE, INTERPRETATION
AND ENFORCEMENT SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF
THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE HEREUNDER.  PRESENTMENT, PROTEST
AND NOTICE OF DISHONOR ARE HEREBY WAIVED.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Note to
be executed in its name and attested to by its authorized
officers, and its corporate seal to be hereunto affixed, all on
the date first above written.

interest is to be paid to the Bank at the address set forth above in the
first paragraph of this Note or at such other place as the holder hereof may
designate by notice in writing to the Company.

any advance shall not affect the obligation of the undersigned to repay such
amount together with interest thereon in accordance with this Note and the
Loan Agreement.

Default as defined in the Loan Agreement, the principal and all accrued

RE:      USD 10,000,000.00 Swap Transaction

Dear Sir/Madam:

    The purpose of this letter agreement is to confirm the
terms and conditions of the Transaction entered into between us
on the Trade Date specified below (the "Swap Transaction").  This
letter agreement constitutes a "Confirmation" under the ISDA
Agreement defined below.

    The definitions and provisions contained in the 1991 ISDA
Definitions (as published by the International Swaps and
Derivatives Association, Inc. ("ISDA")) are incorporated into
this Confirmation.  In the event of any inconsistency between
those definitions and provisions and this Confirmation, this
Confirmation will govern.

    1.   The parties agree that the Swap Transaction described
in this Confirmation constitutes their binding obligations. 
Except as set forth in this Confirmation, the Swap Transaction
shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of the form of
the master agreement entitled "Master Agreement" ("Multicurrency-
Cross Border" version) as published in 1992 by the International

"ISDA Agreement"), excluding the "Schedule" thereto. 
Counterparty and BofA shall negotiate a Schedule and upon
agreement shall sign the ISDA Agreement including the Schedule so
negotiated and agreed upon (hereinafter call the "Agreement"),
whereupon this Confirmation shall be deemed automatically,
without further action of any party, to be a Confirmation under
the Agreement; provided, however, that, unless and until
Counterparty and BofA agreed upon and sign the Agreement, the
preceding sentence shall have full force and effect.

    THIS FACSIMILE TRANSMISSION WILL BE THE ONLY WRITTEN
COMMUNICATION REGARDING THIS SWAP TRANSACTION.  Pursuant to ISDA
guidelines, this facsimile transmission will be sufficient for
all purposes to evidence a binding supplement to the Agreement. 
However, should you have an internal requirement for
confirmations with an original signature, we request that you

will add an original signature to the fully executed
Confirmation, and forward it to you by mail.
