with each transfer and assignment of Additional Leases and Substitute Leases,
the Originator will contribute and transfer to the Seller, without recourse, all
right, title and interest of the Originator in and to each item of Equipment

(b) The Seller and the Issuer each acknowledge and confirm that the

It is the intention of the parties hereto that each transfer of
Leases, Additional Leases, Substitute Leases and Equipment by the Originator to
the Seller pursuant to Sections 1.01(a) and 1.02(a), and each transfer of
Leases, Additional Leases and Substitute Leases by the Seller to the Issuer
pursuant to Section 1.01(b), shall constitute an absolute assignment thereof by
way of capital contribution and not a loan. Neither the Originator nor the
Seller shall take any action inconsistent with the treatment of such transfers
as absolute assignments by way of capital
2
contributions or with the Issuer's ownership of the Leases (including all
Related Interests). Each of the Originator, the Seller and the Issuer shall
indicate in its records that, and shall respond to any inquiries from third
parties by indicating that, (i) ownership of the Leases, Additional Leases,
Substitute Leases, including all Related Interests, is held by the Issuer and
pledged to the Trustee, pursuant to the Indenture, and (ii) ownership of each
item of Equipment subject to each Lease is held by the Seller (subject to the
security interest therein granted by the Seller to the Issuer hereunder and by
the Issuer to the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture). In the event, however,
that contrary to the expressed intentions of the parties, the transactions
evidenced by Sections 1.01(a), 1.01(b) and 1.02(a) do not constitute an absolute
transfer and assignment of assets pursuant to the provisions of such Sections,
then it is the intention of the parties hereto that this Assignment and
Servicing Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law
and that, effective as of the date hereof, the Originator shall be deemed to
have granted to the Seller, and the Seller shall be deemed to have granted to
the Issuer, first priority security interests, as follows:
(a) Originator hereby grants to Seller a security interest in all
of the Originator's right, title and interest in, to and under the
following described property, whether such property (or Originator's right,
title or interest therein) is now existing or is hereafter created,
acquired or arising, and wherever located, as security for the payment and
performance of all liabilities, indebtedness and obligations now or at any
time or times hereafter owing by Originator to Seller, whether absolute or
conditional, due or to become due, liquidated or unliquidated and arising
under the terms of this Assignment and Servicing Agreement: (i) all Leases,
including, without limitation, all Additional Leases and Substitute Leases;
(ii) all amounts due or to become due at any time or times under or with
respect to any of the Leases since the Cut-Off Date (other than any pre-
payments of rent required pursuant to the terms of any Lease at or before
the commencement of the Lease), including, without limitation, all Lease
Payments, Casualty Payments, Retainable Deposits and Termination Payments;
(iii) all rights to payment or performance under any Lease Guaranty; (iv)
all rights and interests in any collateral with respect to any Lease,
including any security deposit and any security interest in the Equipment
securing the Lessee's obligations under any Lease; (v) all of the
Originator's right, title and interest in and to any Equipment; (vi) all
rights and benefits of Originator under this Assignment and Servicing
Agreement; and (vii) all proceeds of any of the foregoing (collectively,
the "Originator Collateral").
(b) Seller hereby grants to Issuer a security interest in all of
Seller's right, title and interest in, to and under the following described
property, whether such property (or Seller's right, title or interest
therein) is now existing or is hereafter created, acquired or arising, and
wherever located, as security for the payment and performance of all
liabilities, indebtedness and obligations now or at any time or times
hereafter owing by Seller to Issuer, whether absolute or conditional, due
or to become due, liquidated or unliquidated and arising under the terms of
this Assignment and Servicing Agreement: (i) all Leases, including, without
limitation, all Additional Leases and Substitute Leases; (ii) all amounts
due or to become due at any time or times under or with respect to any
Leases since the Cut-Off Date (other than any pre-payments of rent required
pursuant to the terms of any Lease at or before the commencement of the
Lease), including, without limitation, all Lease Payments, Casualty
Payments, Retainable Deposits and Termination
3
Payments; (iii) all rights to payment or performance under any Lease
Guaranty; (iv) all rights and interests in any collateral with respect to
any Lease, including any security deposit and any security interest in the
Equipment securing the Lessee's obligations under any Lease; (v) all of the
Seller's right, title and interest in and to any Equipment; (vi) all rights
and benefits of Seller under this Assignment and Security Agreement; (vii)
all interest of the Seller in any of the Originator Collateral, including,
without limitation, the security interest granted by Originator to Seller
in the Originator Collateral; and (viii) all proceeds of any of the
foregoing (collectively, the "Seller Collateral").

3.03(b) of the Indenture.
(b) The Servicer shall perform its duties under this Section 1.04
in accordance with the standard set forth in Section 4.01 as such standard

further that it does not and will not have or assert any beneficial
ownership interest in such Leases. The Servicer shall xxxx conspicuously

Indenture, and (ii) a security interest in all right, title and interest of
the Seller in and to the related Equipment has been granted by the Seller
to the Issuer hereunder and pledged by the Issuer to the Trustee as

4
Trustee and the Insurer. The Servicer shall keep the originals of the
Leases and related Lease files segregated from other leases, records and
files of the Servicer in a place where it is indicated that they are being
held for the Trustee; provided, however, that the originals of the Leases
-------- -------
and related Lease files in respect of obligors in the State of Florida need
not be so segregated provided that such Leases (and Lease files) are also
retained in imaged form and the Servicer is in compliance with the
requirements of Section 1.04(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Servicer may temporarily move individual Leases or any portion thereof and
related Lease files without notice as necessary to conduct collection and
other servicing activities.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in
the event that the long-term debt rating assigned to the Servicer is
downgraded below BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Xxxxx'x, the Servicer shall deliver
the originals of all of the Leases (and related Lease files), including the
originals of any Leases (and related Lease files) in imaged form, to the
Trustee within three (3) Business Days of receipt of written demand by the
Insurer.

contributions and transfers of the Leases and Equipment pursuant to
Sections 1.01(a), 1.01(b) and 1.02(a) are without representation or
warranty by, or recourse to or against, IKON Office Solutions, Inc. or any
subsidiary or Affiliate of IKON Office Solutions, Inc. other than the
Originator and the Seller, including any right to require IKON Office
Solutions, Inc. or any such subsidiary or Affiliate other than the
Originator or the Seller to purchase or acquire any Lease or item of
Equipment for any reason or to compensate the Originator, the Seller, the
Issuer or any other Person for or in respect of any Lease or item of
Equipment (whether on account of the non-payment of any lease or rental
payment or for any other reason).
SECTION 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE ORIGINATOR
The Originator, as Originator and Servicer, hereby represents and
warrants as follows:
2.01 Corporate Organization and Authority.
------------------------------------
The Originator:
(a) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
incorporation,
(b) has all requisite power and authority and all necessary
licenses and permits to own and operate its properties and
to carry on its business as now conducted (except where the
failure to have such licenses and permits would not have a
material adverse effect on the Asset Pool or the business or
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Originator or
impair the enforceability of any Lease) and to enter into
and perform its obligations under this Assignment and
Servicing Agreement, and the transactions
5
contemplated hereby, including performance of the duties of
the Servicer and the Originator's support obligations
hereunder, and
(c) has duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is
in good standing as a foreign corporation in each
jurisdiction where the character of its properties or the
nature of its activities makes such qualification necessary
(except where the failure to be so qualified or in good
standing would not have a material adverse effect on the
Asset Pool or the business or condition (financial or
otherwise) of the Originator or impair the enforceability of
any Lease).
2.02 Business and Property.
---------------------
The Prospectus accurately describes in all material respects the
general nature of the business of the Originator.
2.03 Financial Statements.
--------------------
(a) The consolidated balance sheet of the Originator and its
consolidated subsidiaries for the fiscal years ended September 30, 1998 and
September 30, 1997 and the related consolidated statements of income,
retained earnings and cash flow for the respective fiscal years ended on
such dates, all accompanied by reports thereon containing opinions without
qualification, except as therein noted, by Ernst & Young, independent
certified public accountants, and the unaudited interim consolidated
balance sheets of the Originator and its consolidated subsidiaries as of
December 31, 1998 and as of June 30, 1999 and the related consolidated
statements of income, retained earnings and cash flow for the three months
ended December 31, 1998 and June 30, 1999, respectively, have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied, and present fairly the financial position of the Originator and
its subsidiaries as of such dates and the results of their operations for
such periods.
(b) Except as disclosed in the Prospectus and the financial
statements referred to in the preceding Section 2.03(a), since September
30, 1998 there has been no change in the business, condition or prospects
(financial or otherwise) of the Originator except changes in the ordinary
course of business, none of which individually or in the aggregate has been
materially adverse. Neither the Originator nor any of its subsidiaries has
any material liabilities or obligations not incurred in the ordinary course
of business other than those disclosed in the financial statements referred
to in Section 2.03(a) or for which adequate reserves are reflected in such
financial statements.
2.04 Equipment and Leases.
--------------------
(a) Prior to the date of each contribution and transfer of any
Leases and each contribution and transfer or grant of a security interest
in the related Equipment in accordance with Sections 1.01 and 1.02, the
Originator purchased each item of Equipment from the manufacturer or other
supplier. The Originator has paid in full, to the manufacturer or supplier,
as the case may be, the purchase price and any related charges in
connection with the acquisition of the Equipment. The contribution to the
Seller and the concurrent contribution to the Issuer of
6
the Leases, the contribution of all of the Originator's right, title and
interest in each item of Equipment to the Seller and the grant of a
security interest in the Seller's interests in each item of Equipment to
the Issuer, do not violate the terms or provisions of any Lease or any
other agreement to which the Originator is a party or by which it is bound.
(b) Immediately prior to the completion of each contribution and
transfer described in Sections 1.01(a), 1.01(b) and 1.02(a), the Originator
will (i) be the legal owner of the Leases (including all Related Interests)
and (ii) have good title to each item of Equipment. Upon completion of each
contribution and transfer described in Sections 1.01(a), 1.01(b) and
1.02(a) and the grant of the security interest described in Section
1.02(b), (i) the Issuer will be the legal owner of the related Leases
(including all Related Interests), (ii) the Seller will have good title to
each item of related Equipment, and (iii) the Issuer will have a valid
security interest in all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and
to each item of related Equipment.
(c) At the time of each transfer of a Lease hereunder, (A) each
such Lease (i) will be a triple-net lease (i.e., pursuant to which the
- -
Lessee is unconditionally responsible for the payment of insurance,
maintenance and taxes with respect to the Equipment subject to the Lease);
(ii) will be a legal, valid and binding full recourse obligation of the
Lessee thereunder, enforceable by the Issuer (and by the Trustee as
assignee of the Issuer) against such Lessee in accordance with the terms
thereof, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or affecting
the enforcement of creditors' rights and by general equity principles; and
(iii) provides that it is noncancellable by the Lessee; and (iv) will be in
full force and effect; (B) any and all requirements of any federal, state
or local law, including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending and
equal credit opportunity laws applicable to such Lease will have been
complied with; and (C) the Originator has no knowledge (after due inquiry)
of any challenge, dispute or claim by or against the Lessee under or
affecting such Lease or of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the applicable
Lessee. As of the initial Determination Date, or the effective date of the
transfer of any Additional Lease or Substitute Lease, each Lessee has paid
the first scheduled installment of rent under its respective Lease.
(d) At the time that any Lease is contributed and transferred
hereunder, the Originator will have no knowledge that any item of the
Equipment subject thereto has suffered any loss or damage which has not
been repaired.
(e) Each Lease requires the Lessee thereunder to maintain
insurance on the Equipment subject thereto in an amount sufficient to fully
insure such Equipment.
(f) In addition to the insurance maintained by the Lessees with
respect to the Equipment, the Originator (or an Affiliate of the
Originator) maintains (i) one or more casualty insurance policies which, in
the aggregate, are in an amount not less than the aggregate Outstanding
Principal Amount of the Notes, (ii) a general liability insurance policy in

servicing and administration of the Leases and the interests in the Equipment
which are consistent with the manner in which it services leases and equipment
constituting part of its own portfolio and consistent with the customary
practices of servicers in the equipment leasing industry, but in performing its
duties hereunder, the Servicer will act on behalf and for the benefit of the
Issuer, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes and the Insurer, subject at all
times to the provisions of the Indenture, without regard to any relationship
which the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer may otherwise have with a
Lessee. The Servicer shall at all times act in accordance with the provisions of
each Lease, and shall observe and comply with all requirements of law applicable
to it. Except as permitted by the terms of any Lease following a default
thereunder, the Servicer shall not take any action which would result in the
interference with the Lessee's right to quiet enjoyment of the Equipment subject
to the Lease during the term thereof. The Servicer shall exercise with respect
to each item of Equipment all rights and remedies it, the Issuer or the Trustee
shall have against any vendor of the Equipment, subject to the provisions of any
Lease, and shall promptly pay all amounts realized from such actions to the
Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account, in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture.
(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer
agrees to (i) invoice each Lessee monthly (except quarterly, semi-annually or
annually in the case of Leases which provide for quarterly, semi-annual or
annual Lease Payments, respectively) for all Lease Payments required to be paid
by such Lessee in such manner and to the same extent as the Servicer does with
respect to leases held for its own account, (ii) maintain with respect to each
Lease and each item of Equipment, and with respect to each payment by each
Lessee and compliance by each Lessee with the provisions of each Lease, complete
and accurate records in the same form and to the same extent as the Servicer
does with respect to leases and equipment held for its own account (which
records shall be at least as complete and accurate as those maintained by the
Servicer as of the date of this Assignment and Servicing Agreement), and (iii)
from time to time execute, deliver and file (or cause the same to be done), and
the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute, deliver, and file on
behalf of the Originator, the Seller, the Issuer and the Trustee, any and all
tax returns with respect to sales, use, personal property and other taxes (other
than corporate income tax returns) and any and all reports or licensing
applications required to be filed in any jurisdiction with respect to any Lease
or any item of Equipment and, except as provided in the last sentence of this
Section 4.01(c), any Financing Statements and assignments of Financing
Statements and continuation statements as may from time to time be necessary
because of Lease substitutions, equipment replacements in accordance with the
provisions of any Lease or otherwise so that the transfer of the Leases and
Equipment from the Originator to the Seller, the transfer of the Leases from the
Seller to the
20
Issuer, the security interest granted by the Seller to the Issuer in the
Equipment and the security interest granted by the Issuer pursuant to the
Indenture in favor of the Trustee in each of the Leases and the Issuer's
interest in the Equipment, at all times will be perfected by such filings with
the appropriate Uniform Commercial Code filing offices. The Originator, the
Seller, the Issuer and the Servicer agree to file Financing Statements on Form
UCC-1 to perfect the ownership interest of the Issuer and the security interest
of the Trustee in the Leases, the ownership interest of the Seller in the
Equipment, the security interest in favor of the Issuer in the Equipment and the
security interest of the Trustee in the Issuer's interest in the Equipment. The
parties acknowledge that the Originator has not filed, and it is not
contemplated that the Originator, the Servicer, the Seller, the Issuer or any
other party will file, Financing Statements in order to perfect or to continue
in effect any security interest in any item of Equipment securing the
obligations of the Lessee under the Lease relating to such Equipment.
(d) The Servicer will maintain, or cause to be maintained, with
respect to the Leases and the Equipment casualty and liability insurance in
amounts at least as great as those described in Section 2.04(f). Each such
casualty and liability policy (i) if maintained by the Servicer, shall name the
Issuer and Trustee as loss payees or additional insureds and (ii) if maintained
by the Lessee, shall name the Servicer or the Trustee as loss payee and
additional insured; provided that the Servicer shall cause all such policies to
--------
name the Trustee and the Issuer as loss payees and additional insureds if (A)
the Originator is no longer the Servicer, (B) an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or (C) a Servicer Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing.
(e) On or prior to the Issuance Date, the Servicer will file the
Required Financing Statements and thereafter will file such additional Financing
Statements and continuation statements and assignments with respect to the
Leases and the Equipment as may be necessary because of equipment replacements
in accordance with the provisions of any Lease, purchases of Additional Leases
in accordance with Section 11 and Lease substitutions pursuant to Section 11
hereof or otherwise so that (i) the ownership interest and security interest
contemplated by this Agreement in favor of the Issuer, and the security interest
contemplated by the Indenture in favor of the Trustee, in the Leases will be
perfected by such filings with the appropriate Uniform Commercial Code filing
offices and (ii) the ownership interest contemplated by this Agreement in favor
of the Seller, and the security interest contemplated by this Agreement in favor
of the Issuer and by the Indenture in favor of the Trustee, in the Equipment,
will be perfected by such filings with the appropriate Uniform Commercial Code
filing offices.
(f) The Servicer shall pay Excess Copy Charges and Maintenance
Charges, if any, owing to IKON Office Solutions, Inc. in a timely fashion.
4.02 Lease Amendments and Modifications.
----------------------------------
In performing its obligations hereunder, the Servicer may, acting in
the name of the Issuer and without the necessity of obtaining the prior consent
of the Issuer, the Insurer or the Trustee, enter into and grant modifications,
waivers and amendments to the terms of any Lease except for modifications,
waivers or amendments that (a) are inconsistent with the servicing standards set
forth in Section 4.01 above, (b) would reduce the amount or extend the time for
21
payment of any Lease Payment, Casualty Payment or Termination Payment to be made
under a Lease (other than to permit termination of a Lease which does not
otherwise provide for termination by requiring the payment, in lieu of all
future Lease Payments with respect to the Lease or Equipment subject thereto, an
amount which equals or exceeds the Lease Purchase Amount for such Lease as of
such date) or the Lessee's absolute and unconditional obligation to make payment
of the same, (c) would reduce or adversely affect the Lessee's obligation to
maintain, service, insure and care for the Equipment or would permit the
alteration of any item of Equipment in any way which could adversely affect its
present or future value or (d) otherwise could adversely affect the interests of
any of the Seller, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Insurer or the holders of the
Notes.
In addition, following the transfer of any Lease to the Issuer in
accordance herewith, the Servicer may make adjustments to such Lease which
modify one or more terms of such Lease, such as payment amount or payment date.
Such administrative adjustments may result in a re-booking of such Lease and the
assignment of a new Lease number, but will not be considered to be a
substitution or prepayment of such Lease. Except to the extent the Originator
substitutes a Substitute Lease therefor in accordance with Section 11 hereof,
the Servicer may permit such adjustments so long as the following conditions
precedent have been satisfied:
(i) after giving effect to such adjustment and any
additions and substitutions pursuant to Section 11, the final payment on such
Lease must be on or prior to June 2005;
(ii) after giving effect to such adjustments and any
additions and substitutions pursuant to Section 11 the aggregate amount of Lease
Payments through the term of the Leases (including the Substitute Leases and the
Additional Leases) will not be materially less than the aggregate scheduled
Lease Payments of the Leases prior to such adjustment, substitution or addition;
(iii) after giving effect to such adjustments, additions and
substitutions pursuant to Section 11, the Discounted Present Value of the
Performing Leases must not be less than the Discounted Present Value of the
Performing Leases prior to such adjustment, addition and substitution; and
(iv) after giving effect to such adjustments, additions,
and substitutions pursuant to Section 11, the weighted average remaining term of
the Performing Leases must not be greater than the weighted average remaining
term of the Performing Leases prior to such adjustment, addition, and
substitution.
4.03 Non-Performing Leases.
---------------------
(a) Upon receipt of notice from the Issuer, the Trustee or any
other Person, or if the Servicer otherwise learns that any Lease is a Non-
Performing Lease, the Servicer will take such action as is appropriate,
consistent with the Servicer's administration of leases in its own portfolio and
consistent with the customary practices of servicers in the office equipment
leasing industry, including such action as may be necessary to cause, or attempt
to cause, the Lessee thereunder to cure such non-performance (if the same may be
cured) or to terminate or attempt to
22
terminate such Lease and to recover, or attempt to recover, all damages
resulting from such default.
(b) The Servicer will use its best efforts to sell or lease any
Equipment that is subject to a Non-Performing Lease in a timely manner and upon
the most favorable terms and conditions available at the time. In the event of
an Early Lease Termination, any Substitute Leases in respect thereof must have a
Discounted Present Value equal to or greater than that of the Early Termination
Lease, monthly payments at least equal to those of the Early Termination Lease
through the remaining term of such Early Termination Lease and a remaining term
less than or equal to that of the Early Termination Lease.
(c) In the event that the Servicer is required to sell or lease any
item of Equipment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.03 at a time when
the Servicer has other similar items of equipment available to it, the Servicer
will not favor any such other item in its remarketing efforts.
(d) All amounts realized by the Servicer in the performance of its
duties under this Section 4.03 with respect to any Lease remaining subject to
the Lien of the Indenture and related Equipment (net of the Servicer's actual
out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in such realization), including
amounts received by the Servicer pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.05,
shall be held in trust by the Servicer, as agent for the Trustee and deposited
into the Collection Account for application in accordance with the provisions of
the Indenture; provided that, to the extent that (i) the Servicer has made any
--------
advances pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof with respect to any Lease which
thereafter became a Non-Performing Lease, and (ii) the Servicer has not
otherwise been fully reimbursed for such advances or payments, the Servicer
shall reimburse itself for such advances or payments from any amounts recovered
with respect to such Non-Performing Lease before depositing any such amounts
pursuant to this Section 4.03(d). Any amounts properly retained by the Servicer
pursuant to this Section are, without further action by the Trustee, released
from the Lien of the Indenture.
4.04 Costs of Servicing; Servicing Fee; Administrative Expenses.
----------------------------------------------------------
(a) All costs of servicing each Lease in the manner required by
this Section 4 shall be borne by the Servicer, but the Servicer shall be
entitled to retain, out of any amounts actually recovered by the Servicer in the
performance of its obligations under Section 4.03 hereof with respect to any
Lease or the interests in the Equipment subject thereto, the Servicer's actual
out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in the course of such performance
with respect to such Lease or the interests in the Equipment. (For all purposes
of this Section 4 the Servicer's "out-of-pocket expenses" means only those
expenses incurred to third parties (e.g., reasonable fees of outside counsel in
a collection suit) and not salaries, operating costs, overtime wages and other
such "overhead" costs or expenses of the Servicer.) In addition, the Servicer
shall be entitled to receive on each Payment Date following the Issuance Date a
servicing fee with respect to the Notes (the "Servicing Fee"). Any amounts
properly retained by the Servicer pursuant to this Section are, without further
action by the Trustee, released from the Lien of the Indenture.
23
(b) The amount of the Servicing Fee which the Servicer shall be
entitled to receive on each Payment Date following the original issuance of the
Notes shall be determined by multiplying one-twelfth of 0.75% by the lesser of
(i) the Discounted Present Value of the Performing Leases or (ii) the
Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes, in each case at the Determination
Date for such Payment Date before application of payments with respect thereto.
(c) The Servicer agrees to pay, out of the Servicing Fee, all
Trustee Fees and expenses of the Trustee in connection with the Notes (including
the expenses relating to the preparation and delivery of reports to Noteholders)
and all fees of accountants in connection with the Notes.
4.05 Other Transactions.
------------------
Nothing in this Assignment and Servicing Agreement shall preclude the
Originator or the Servicer from entering into other leases or other financial
transactions with any Lessee or selling or discounting any such lease with any
Person.
SECTION 5. SERVICER ADVANCES AND ORIGINATOR'S AND SELLER'S SUPPORT
5.01 Late Lease Payments.
-------------------
On each Determination Date, the Servicer may, but will not be required
to, advance and remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account, in
such manner as will ensure that the Trustee will have immediately available
funds on account thereof by 11:00 A.M. New York City time on the second Business
Day prior to the next succeeding Payment Date, an amount (a "Servicer Advance")
equal to any Lease Payment due during the prior Due Period but unpaid prior to
such Determination Date with respect to any Lease. In consideration of each
Servicer Advance the Servicer will be entitled to retain any late payment fees
recovered from the Lessee with respect to any Lease Payment covered by a
Servicer Advance. In addition, the Servicer will be reimbursed for Servicer
Advances from Available Funds in the Collection Account in accordance with the
Indenture on the following Payment Date. Any amounts properly retained by the
Servicer pursuant to this Section are, without further action by the Trustee,
released from the Lien of the Indenture.
5.02 Early Termination Leases.
------------------------
Following the Determination Date as of which any Lease first becomes
an Early Termination Lease the Originator may, but shall have no obligation to,
either (a) substitute one or more Eligible Leases and the Equipment subject
thereto for such Lease and the Equipment subject thereto pursuant to Section 11
hereof (if the Originator is then entitled to substitute Leases and Equipment in
accordance with the provisions of Section 11.01 hereof) on or before the second
Business Day prior to the next succeeding Payment Date, (b) purchase from the
Issuer such Lease and the Issuer's interest in the related Equipment by
remitting to the Trustee an amount equal to the Lease Purchase Amount in such
manner as will ensure that the Trustee will have immediately available funds
therefor by 11:00 A.M. New York City time on the second Business Day prior to
the next succeeding Payment Date or (c) transfer to the Issuer one or more
Additional Leases in consideration of the proceeds thereof in accordance with
Section 11 hereof.
24
Unless the Originator takes one of the actions set forth in the prior sentence,
the Servicer will not permit a voluntary termination of a Lease prior to its
stated maturity unless it receives a payment in connection with such termination
equal to at least the Lease Purchase Amount. Any Early Termination Lease and the
Issurer's interest in the Equipment subject thereto which is purchased, or for
which Additional Leases have been acquired or Substitute Leases transferred,
pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall nevertheless remain subject to the Lien of
the Indenture until such time as an Additional Lease or Additional Leases have
been acquired or Substitute Lease or Substitute Leases have been transferred in
accordance with the provisions of Section 11 hereof or the Lease Purchase Amount
has been paid.
5.03 Indemnification.
---------------
Subject to the provisions of Section 7.02, the Originator, in its
capacity as Servicer, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, the
Trustee (its officers, directors, employees and agents) and each holder of the
Notes (each an "Indemnified Party") against any and all liabilities, losses,
damages, penalties, costs and expenses (including costs of defense and legal
fees and expenses) which may be incurred or suffered by such Indemnified Party
(except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct
on the part of the Indemnified Party) as a result of claims, actions, suits or
judgments asserted or imposed against it and arising out of the transactions
contemplated hereby or by the Indenture, including, without limitation, any
claims resulting from any use, operation, maintenance, repair, storage or
transportation of any item of Equipment, whether or not in the Servicer's
possession or under its control pursuant to this Assignment and Servicing
Agreement, and any tort claims and any fines or penalties arising from any
violation of the laws or regulations of the United States or any state or local
government or governmental authority; provided that the foregoing indemnity
--------
shall in no way be deemed to impose on the Originator any obligation, other than
to the extent specifically set forth in this Agreement or the Indenture, to make
any payment with respect to any Lease or Equipment or principal or interest on
the Notes, to pay or reimburse the Insurer in respect of any amount paid by the
Insurer on or in respect of the Notes or to reimburse the Issuer for any
payments on account of the Notes. This Section 5.03 shall bind any successor
Servicer hereunder. Nothing in this indemnification shall be construed as a
guaranty of any Lease or any Equipment by the Originator. The obligations of
the Servicer hereunder shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of the
Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee thereunder.
5.04 Purchases; Other Payments.
-------------------------
(a) In the event that (i) any of the representations or
warranties made by the Originator in Sections 2.04, 2.05(b) and 2.08 hereof with
respect to any of the Leases or the Equipment subject thereto proves at any time
to have been inaccurate in any material respect as of the Issuance Date or
related transfer date, as the case may be, or (ii) any Lease shall be terminated
in whole or in part by a Lessee, or any amounts due with respect to any Lease
shall be reduced or impaired, as a result of (x) any action or inaction by the
Originator (other than any such action or inaction of the Originator, when
acting as Servicer, in connection with the enforcement of any Lease in a manner
consistent with the provisions of this Assignment and Servicing Agreement) or
(y) any claim by any Lessee against the Originator and, in any such case, the
event or condition causing such inaccuracy, termination, reduction, impairment
or claim
25
shall not have been cured or corrected within 30 days after the earlier of the
date on which the Originator is given notice thereof by the Issuer or the
Trustee or the date on which the Originator otherwise first has notice thereof,
the Originator will purchase such Lease and related Equipment interests by
paying to the Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, not later than
the second Business Day after the Determination Date next following the
expiration of such 30-day period with respect to the events referenced in
Section 5.04(a)(i) and (ii), an amount equal to the Lease Purchase Amount, and
simultaneously with such purchase, the Originator shall reimburse the Servicer
for all amounts, if any, theretofore advanced by the Servicer pursuant to
Section 5.01 with respect to such Lease. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, it is agreed and understood that for purposes of this Section 5.04,
any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty with respect to (i) the
priority of the Lien of the Indenture with respect to any Lease or (ii) the
amount (if less than represented) of the Lease Payments, Casualty Payments or
Termination Payments under any Lease shall be deemed to be material.
(b) By the Issuance Date, the Originator and the Seller agree to
obtain and provide to the Trustee UCC searches against each of them from the
appropriate filing offices in Georgia confirming the absence of any UCC filings
(other than those in the process of being released pursuant to releases
delivered on the Issuance Date) against either of them with respect to the
Leases (including the right to receive all payments due or to become due
thereunder) and the Equipment, other than those naming the Seller or the Issuer
as the owner of the Leases or the Trustee as secured party. In the event the
Originator and Seller fail to provide any such searches required by the
preceding sentence of this Section 5.04(b) within the required time period or
any search reveals the existence of any conflicting Liens (which are not removed
within 30 days of receipt of such search), the Originator shall be required to
purchase not later than the third Business Day after the Determination Date
following the expiration of the time period during which such search was to be
obtained or such Lien released, as the case may be, any Lease as to which such
searches are not provided or with respect to which conflicting Liens with
respect thereto or any related Equipment are found to exist at the Lease
Purchase Amount for such Lease.
(c) The Originator's obligations under this Section 5.04 are the
full recourse obligations of the Originator and shall in no way be limited or
discharged by the application of any funds constituting part of the Asset Pool.
(d) In connection with any purchase of Leases and Equipment
interests pursuant to this Section 5.04, the Originator may reacquire from the
Seller the ownership interest of the Seller in such Equipment.
5.05 Seller's Obligation in Respect of Non-Performing Leases.
-------------------------------------------------------
In the event that any Lease shall become a Non-Performing Lease, and
the Originator shall not have substituted one or more Substitute Leases therefor
in accordance with the provisions of Section 11, the Seller shall pay to the
Issuer in the manner provided in the next sentence an amount equal to the lesser
of (i) the amount of all recoveries by the Seller in respect of the sale, re-
lease or other disposition of any item of Equipment subject to such Non-
Performing Lease and (ii) the Discounted Present Value of such Non-Performing
Lease (the "Recourse Amount"). The amount of any such recoveries, up to the
Recourse Amount, shall be
26
deposited into the Collection Account within two Business Days of the receipt
thereof by the Seller or the Servicer. The Seller's obligations under this
Section 5.05 are secured by a security interest from the Seller to the Issuer in
all right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the Equipment subject to
the Leases (whether or not constituting Non-Performing Leases).
5.06 Payment Advices.
---------------
Each payment to the Servicer pursuant to any of the provisions of this
Assignment and Servicing Agreement shall be accompanied by written advice
containing sufficient information to identify the Lease and/or Equipment to
which such payment relates, the Section of this Assignment and Servicing
Agreement pursuant to which such payment is made, and the proper application
pursuant to the provisions of this Assignment and Servicing Agreement or the
Indenture of the amounts being paid.
SECTION 6. INFORMATION TO BE PROVIDED

or the Indenture, describing such default.
(e) The Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer and the Trustee, with

the Indenture for the previous 12-month period (or, in the case of the first
such report, the period from the Issuance Date) has been made under such
officer's supervision and (b) nothing has come to such officer's attention to

Issuer or the Servicer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.
6.02 Annual Independent Public Accountant's Report.
---------------------------------------------
The Servicer shall cause a firm of independent public accountants (who
may also render other services to the Servicer, the Seller or the Originator) to
deliver to the Trustee, with a copy to the Insurer and each Rating Agency,
within 135 days following the end of each fiscal year of the Servicer, beginning
with the Servicer's fiscal year ending September 30, 1999, a written statement
to the effect that such firm has (a) obtained from the Servicer a copy of the
monthly status report pursuant to Section 6.01 for each of three months during
the previous calendar year, such three months to be selected at random by such
firm of independent public accountants; (b) compared the information contained
in such monthly status report and in the monthly summaries prepared by the
Servicer in support of such monthly status report to the computer printouts and
accounts prepared by the Servicer and supporting such reports; and (c) selected,
at random, 100 Leases included in the Asset Pool and compared the activity in
the files maintained by the Servicer for such Leases to the activity as reported
for those Leases to the monthly summaries prepared by the Servicer and
supporting the monthly status report, and that, on the basis of such examination
and comparison, such firm is of the opinion that the Servicer has prepared such
monthly status report and summaries in agreement with the computer printouts,
accounts and individual Lease files, except in each case for (x) such exceptions

additional information as it deems appropriate in an effort to demonstrate that
such Lease is an Eligible Lease and that such substitution is permitted under
