protect, preserve and realize upon the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool
and the Lender's security interest therein to effect the intent of this
Agreement all as fully and effectually as the Borrower night or could do; and

Article 11
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
Section 11.1 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the eRoom Parties breach
any Liquidated Damages Obligation, the eRoom Parties shall pay to the Lender
Liquidated Damages within sixty (60) days of the Borrower's receipt of notice of
such breach, unless such breach is cured to the satisfaction of the Lender
within such sixty (60) day period.
(b) The eRoom Parties and the Lender expressly acknowledge and agree
that it would be extremely difficult to determine the Lender's actual damages as
a result of any breach of a Liquidated Damages Obligation, and that the
Liquidated Damages are a fair and reasonable estimate of such actual damages in
light of the magnitude of the actual or anticipated harm that will be caused to
the Lender by any such breach.
(c) The eRoom Parties acknowledge and agree that their obligations to
pay Liquidated Damages are joint and several.
(d) The Liquidated Damages shall be reduced by sixty-six and
two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) if both Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxx are not
employed on a full-time basis by the Lender (or AMRESCO Commercial Finance, Inc.
or AMRESCO, INC. or their successors or assigns) on the date the related breach
of a Liquidated Damages Obligation occurs, unless (1) both Xxxxx Xxxxx and
Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx are not employed by eRoom on such date (unless eRoom replaces
either Messrs. Xxxxx or Sunyich with a successor that holds a substantially
similar position and that is acceptable to the Lender as of the date of such
replacement in its reasonable and good faith judgment), and/or (2) the Lender
replaces either Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx or Xxxxxxx Xxxx with a successor that holds a
substantially similar position and that is acceptable to eRoom as of the date of
such replacement in its reasonable and good faith judgment, in which event, the
Liquidated Damages shall not be reduced.
Section 11.2 PLEDGE AND GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST FOR LIQUIDATED DAMAGE
OBLIGATION.
(a) As collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and
performance when due of each Liquidated Damages Obligation, and of the eRoom
Parties' obligation to pay Liquidated Damages, the eRoom Parties hereby amend,
modify and restate the continuing security interest in, and lien on, all of the
eRoom Parties' right, title and interest in and to the Liquidated Damages
Collateral which lien and security interest were granted by the eRoom Parties
pursuant to the Program Agreement. Without
50
limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement also secures the
payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Liquidated Damages that would
be owed by the eRoom Parties to the Lender, but for the fact they are
unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding involving any of the eRoom Parties.
(b) All rights of the Lender and security interests hereunder, shall
be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any change in the time,
manner, amount or place of payment of, or any other term of, all or any of the
Liquidated Damages Obligation or the Liquidated Damages or any other amendment
or waiver of or any consent to any departure from this Agreement; (ii) any
exchange, release or non-perfection of all or any part of the Liquidated Damages
Collateral or any other collateral, or any release from, amendment to, waiver
of, or consent to departure from any or all of the Liquidated Damage Obligation
or the Liquidated Damages, or (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any
other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or
a discharge of the eRoom Parties.
(c) At the request of the Lender, the eRoom Parties shall execute all
UCC financing statements and other documents and shall deliver items (including
but not limited to stock certificates) to the Lender required to continue the
perfection of the Lender's security interests granted pursuant to the Program
Agreement and amended, modified and restated pursuant to this Section 11.2.
ARTICLE 12
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

equally share all legal fees and related costs incurred by the Lender in
connection with the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the Operative
Documents and (ii) shall each pay their own legal fees and related costs
associated with each Lease Financing Loan. The eRoom Parties shall pay their own
legal fees and related costs in connection with the negotiation and drafting of
this Agreement and the Operative Documents. If it is determined in a judicial
proceeding that a party to this Agreement has failed to perform under any
provision of this Agreement or the Operative Documents, and if the other party
shall employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the enforcement, performance
or observance of the terms of this Agreement or the Operative Documents on the
part of the nonperforming party, then such other party, shall be reimbursed by

out-of-pocket expenses including any such costs and expenses incurred in any
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or on appeal.
Section 12.2 INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) The eRoom Parties agree to defend, indemnify, pay and hold
harmless (jointly and severally) the Lender and the officers, directors,
counsel, agents and affiliates of the Lender (collectively, the "ALC
INDEMNITEES") from and against any and
51
all losses, liabilities, damages and claims, whether based on any federal, state
or foreign laws, statutes, rules and regulations, on common law or equitable
cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against any ALC Indemnitee, in any manner relating to, arising out of
or resulting from any of the Operative Documents, or the transactions
contemplated thereby (collectively, the "ALC INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES");
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that none of the eRoom Parties shall have any obligation to
any ALC Indemnitee hereunder with respect to ALC Indemnified Liabilities to the
extent such ALC Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of that ALC Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertaking to defend,
indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be
unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the eRoom
Parties shall contribute the maximum that they are permitted to pay and satisfy
under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all ALC Indemnified
Liabilities incurred by the ALC Indemnitee or any of them.
(b) The Lender agrees to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless the
eRoom Parties and the officers, directors, counsel, agents and affiliates of the
eRoom Parties (collectively, the "eROOM INDEMNITEES") from and against any and
all losses, liabilities, damages and claims, whether based on any federal, state
or foreign laws, statutes, rules and regulations, on common law or equitable
cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against any such eRoom Indemnitee, in any manner relating to, arising
out of or resulting from the Lender's disclosure of information, or
representations, regarding the Equipment or Refreshment Centers to third parties
(collectively, the "eROOM INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Lender shall have no obligation to any eRoom Indemnitee hereunder with respect
to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such eRoom Indemnified Liabilities
arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that eRoom Indemnitee
as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the
extent that the undertaking to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set
forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of
any law or public policy, the Lender shall contribute the maximum that it is
permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and
satisfaction of all eRoom Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the eRoom
Indemnitee or any of them.
Section 12.3 WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE PARTIES, INCLUDING ANY ASSIGNEES,

modification, amendment or waiver of or with respect to any provision of this

of the eRoom Parties from any of the terms or conditions thereof, shall in any
event be effective unless
52
it shall be in writing and signed by each of the eRoom Parties and the Lender.
Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the purpose for which given. No consent to or demand on any of the eRoom
Parties in any case shall entitle any of the eRoom Parties to any other or

embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Lender and each of
the eRoom Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings including the Program Agreement; PROVIDED,

Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall be binding on the

Lender hereunder or under any Operative Document or other document delivered
hereunder or in connection herewith, or allowed it by law or equity, shall be
cumulative and may be exercised from time to time. No failure on the part of the
Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right preclude
any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The due
payment and performance of the Borrower's indebtedness, liabilities and
obligations under each Lease Financing Loan and the related Note and the other
documents delivered in connection therewith shall be without regard to any
counterclaim, right of set-off or any other claim whatsoever which the Borrower

nature whatsoever which the Lender may have to the Borrower, and no such
counterclaim or set-off shall be asserted by the Borrower in any action, suit or
proceeding instituted by the Lender for payment or performance of the Borrower's
indebtedness, liabilities or obligations under any Note or any of the other
documents delivered in connection therewith, or otherwise other than that no
Event of Default or Event of Acceleration has occurred under any of the

the Operative Documents.

C. PLATINUM PLANS.
The "REFRESHMENT CENTER LOAN AMOUNT" for each Refreshment Center financed
under the Platinum Plan is calculated using the same methodology used to
calculate the "Refreshment Center Loan Amount" described in Section A of this
Schedule I under the Threshold Plan, except that the Average Daily eRoom
Platinum Plan Revenue (defined below) shall be substituted for the "Average
Daily eRoom Threshold Plan Revenue".
The "AVERAGE DAILY eROOM PLATINUM PLAN REVENUE" shall mean the amount
calculated using either Option 1, Option 2 or Option 3 below, as applicable:
Option 1: If the Lessee has a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.4:1
and occupancy of *** for the previous *** month period, the "Average Daily eRoom
Platinum Plan Revenue" shall be equal to the average revenue received by eRoom
(or Borrower) per Refreshment Center per day using the Platinum Calculation.
Option 2: If the Lessee has a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio between *** and
*** and occupancy of at least *** for the previous *** month period, the
"Average Daily eRoom Platinum Plan Revenue" shall be equal to the average
revenue received by eRoom (or Borrower) per Refreshment Center per day using the
Platinum Calculation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, and at any time limit all such Lease Financing Loans funded
under this Option 2 to no more than *** of the then current Overall Lease
Financing Loans.
Option 3: In all other cases (including cases in which Lender does not
receive information adequate to determine the Lessee's Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio), the "Average Daily eRoom Platinum Plan Revenue" shall be equal to the
Average Daily eRoom Threshold Plan Revenue (described in Section A of this
Schedule I) under the theoretical assumption that the Lessee to such Platinum
Plan Business Lease had selected a Threshold Plan instead of a Platinum Plan;
provided however, that the Average Daily eRoom Platinum Plan Revenue calculated
pursuant to Option 3 shall not exceed the amount calculated in Option 1 above,
assuming that the Lessee had qualified for Option 1 above.
"PLATINUM CALCULATION" shall mean a calculation of the revenue due eRoom
(or Borrower) from the Lessee under the applicable Platinum Plan, as shown by
way of example in Exhibit R.

FORM OF LEASE FINANCING NOTE
Lease Financing Loan No. _______
US $______________ ___________, ____
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (the "BORROWER") promises to pay to the
order of AMRESCO Leasing Corporation, a Nevada corporation (together with its
successors and assigns, the "LENDER"), the principal sum of
_____________________ and __/___ Dollars (US $_______), with interest thereon,
to be computed from the date of this Note at the Applicable Interest Rate
(defined in Paragraph 3 below).
This Lease Financing Note is executed and delivered by the Borrower
pursuant to that certain Master Business Lease Financing Agreement, dated May
11, 2000 (as amended from time to time, the "AGREEMENT"), by and among the
Borrower, the Lender, RoomSystems, Inc. and eRoom System Technologies, Inc. to
evidence the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Lease Financing Loan made
by the Lender to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.
This Lease Financing Note is entitled to the benefit and security of the
Agreement and the other Operative Documents, to which reference is hereby made
for a statement of all of the terms and conditions under which the Lease
Financing Loan evidenced hereby is made. The Agreement requires certain of the
terms of the Lease Financing Loan to be evidenced by a Borrowing Notice and
Transaction Approval, and reference is hereby made to the related Borrowing
Notice and Transaction Approval for such terms.
1. DEFINED TERMS. As used in this Note, the term "INDEBTEDNESS" means the
principal of, interest on, or any other amounts due at any time under, this
Lease Financing Note, the Operative Documents or any other document delivered in
connection with the Lease Financing Loan, including the Prepayment Amount;
provided that such amounts are related to the Lease Financing Loan. Event of
Default, Event of Acceleration and other capitalized terms used but not defined
in this Lease Financing Note shall have the meanings given to such terms in the
Agreement (or, if not defined in the Agreement, as defined in the other
Operative Documents).
2. ADDRESS FOR PAYMENT. All payments due under this Note shall be payable
at 000 X. XxxxXxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxx 000, Xxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, or such other place
as may be designated by written notice to the Borrower from or on behalf of the
Lender.
3. PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. Principal and interest shall be
paid as follows:
(a) This Lease Financing Note shall evidence a Lease Financing Loan
made under the Agreement. The Lease Financing Loan shall bear interest at a rate
(the "APPLICABLE INTEREST RATE") equal to __________ percent (____%) per annum;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if a "NON-PRODUCTION EVENT" occurs, the Applicable
Interest Rate will automatically and retroactively be increased to the sum of
7-Year Treasury
B-1
(determined as of the date of the Lease Financing Loan evidenced hereby) plus
12.50%. Interest under this Lease Financing Note shall be computed on the basis
of a year of 360 days.
The term "NON-PRODUCTION EVENT" shall mean the failure of the Borrower to
satisfy the Business Lease and Cumulative Lease Financing Loan production
requirements set forth in Section 7.9 of the Agreement.
The term "7-YEAR TREASURY" shall mean the yield to maturity for the United
States Treasury bond equal to seven (7) years (as determined by the Lender) as
set forth in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL as of the Business Day immediately
preceding the date of funding of this Lease Financing Loan.
(b) Consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest, each in
the amount of _____________________ and __/___ Dollars (US $_______), shall be
payable on the first (1st) day of each month (or, if such day is not a Business
Day, the next succeeding Business Day), in arrears, beginning on
________________ (as provided in the Agreement), until the entire unpaid
principal balance evidenced by this Lease Financing Note is fully paid; provided
that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein the initial monthly
installment due hereunder shall be due on the date of this Lease Financing Note
and shall be deducted by the Lender from the Loan Amount hereof. Any accrued
interest remaining past due for 30 days or more shall be added to and become
part of the unpaid principal balance and shall bear interest at the rate or
rates specified in this Lease Financing Note, and any reference below to
"accrued interest" shall refer to accrued interest which has not become part of
the unpaid principal balance. Any remaining principal and interest shall be due
and payable on _______________ or on any earlier date on which the unpaid
principal balance of this Lease Financing Note becomes due and payable, by
acceleration or otherwise (the "MATURITY DATE"). The unpaid principal balance
shall continue to bear interest after the Maturity Date at the Default Rate set
forth in this Lease Financing Note, until and including the date on which it is
paid in full.
(c) Any regularly scheduled monthly installment of principal and interest
that is received by the Lender before the date it is due shall be deemed to have
been received on the due date.
4. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. If at any time the Lender receives, from the
Borrower or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Indebtedness that is less
than all amounts due and payable at such time, the Lender may apply that payment
to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by the
Lender, in the Lender's discretion. The Borrower agrees that neither the
Lender's acceptance of a payment from the Borrower in an amount that is less
than all amounts then due and payable nor the Lender's application of such
payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the
unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction.
5. SECURITY. The Indebtedness is secured, among other things, by the
Pledged Assets described in the Agreement, and reference is made to the
Agreement and
B-2
the other Operative Documents for other rights of the Lender concerning the
collateral for the Indebtedness.
6. ACCELERATION. If an Event of Acceleration has occurred and is
continuing, the entire unpaid principal balance, any accrued interest, the
Prepayment Amount and all other amounts payable under this Lease Financing Note
and the Agreement with respect to the related Lease Financing Loan shall at once
become due and payable, at the option of the Lender, without any prior notice to
the Borrower. The Lender may exercise this option to accelerate regardless of
any prior forbearance.
7. LATE CHARGE. If any monthly amount payable under this Lease Financing
Note or under the Agreement is not received by the Lender within 15 days after
the amount is due, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender, immediately and without
demand by the Lender, a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such amount.
The Borrower acknowledges that its failure to make timely payments will cause
the Lender to incur additional expenses in connection with the related Lease
Financing Loan, and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine
those additional expenses. The Borrower agrees that the late charge payable
pursuant to this Paragraph represents a fair and reasonable estimate, taking
into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Lease Financing
Note, of the additional expenses the Lender will incur by reason of such late
payment. The late charge is payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, any
interest payable at the Default Rate pursuant to Paragraph 8.
8. DEFAULT RATE. So long as any monthly installment or any other payment
due under this Lease Financing Note remains past due for 30 days or more,
interest under this Lease Financing Note shall accrue on the unpaid principal
balance from the earlier of the due date of the first unpaid monthly installment
or other payment due, as applicable, at a rate (the "DEFAULT RATE") equal to the
lesser of three (3) percentage points above the Applicable Interest Rate or the
maximum interest rate which may be collected from the Borrower under applicable
law. If the unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest are not paid in
full on the Maturity Date, the unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest
shall bear interest from the Maturity Date at the Default Rate. The Borrower
also acknowledges that its failure to make timely payments will cause the
Lender to incur additional expenses in connection with the related Loan, that,
during the time that any monthly installment or payment under this Lease
Financing Note is delinquent for more than 30 days, the Lender will incur
additional costs and expenses arising from its loss of the use of the money due
and from the adverse impact on the Lender's ability to meet its other
obligations and to take advantage of other investment opportunities, and that it
is extremely difficult and impractical to determine those additional costs and
expenses. The Borrower also acknowledges that, during the time that any monthly
installment or other payment due under this Lease Financing Note is delinquent
for more than 30 days, the Lender's risk of nonpayment of this Note will be
materially increased and the Lender is entitled to be compensated for such
increased risk. The Borrower agrees that the increase in the rate of interest
payable under this Lease Financing Note to the Default Rate represents a fair
and reasonable estimate, taking into account all circumstances existing on the
date of this Lease Financing Note, of the additional costs and expenses the
Lender will incur by reason of the Borrower's delinquent payment and the
additional
B-3
compensation the Lender is entitled to receive for the increased risks of
nonpayment associated with a delinquent loan.
9. VOLUNTARY AND INVOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS. The Lease Financing Loan may be
prepaid in whole but not in part. In the event of prepayment, the Borrower shall
pay the related Prepayment Amount. The Prepayment Amount is due and payable
regardless of whether the prepayment by the Borrower is made voluntarily or
involuntarily, including any prepayment required by the Lender's exercise of its
rights upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or an Event of Acceleration.
In the event the Borrower elects to prepay the related Lease Financing Loan, the
Borrower shall, at the dates and times specified therein, deliver written notice
to the Lender in accordance with Section 2.11(a) of the Agreement.
10. COSTS AND EXPENSES. The Borrower shall pay on demand all expenses and
costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert
witnesses and costs of investigation, incurred by the Lender as a result of any
default under this Lease Financing Note or in connection with efforts to collect
any amount due under this Lease Financing Note, or to enforce the provisions of
the Agreement, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts, in
any appeal, and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief
from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or
non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
11. FORBEARANCE. Any forbearance by the Lender in exercising any right or
remedy under this Lease Financing Note or the Agreement or otherwise afforded by
applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any
other right or remedy. The acceptance by the Lender of any payment after the due
date of such payment, or in an amount which is less than the required payment,
shall not be a waiver of the Lender's right to require prompt payment when due
of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any
failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by the Lender of any security for
the Borrower's obligations under this Lease Financing Note shall not constitute
an election by the Lender of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any
other right or remedy available to the Lender.
12. WAIVERS. Presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of
acceleration, notice of intent to demand or accelerate payment or maturity,
presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, grace, and diligence in
collecting the Indebtedness are waived by the Borrower and all endorsers and
guarantors of this Lease Financing Note and all other third party obligors.
13. LOAN CHARGES. If any applicable law limiting the amount of interest or
other charges permitted to be collected from the Borrower in connection with the
Lease Financing Loan is interpreted so that any interest or other charge
provided for in the Agreement, whether considered separately or together with
other charges provided for in the Agreement, violates that law, and the Borrower
is entitled to the benefit of that law, that interest or charge is hereby
reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate that violation. The Borrower agrees
to an effective rate of interest that is the stated rate of interest plus any
additional rate of interest resulting from any other charges or fees that
B-4
are to be paid by the Borrower to the Lender that may be found by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be interest. The amounts, if any, previously paid to
the Lender in excess of the permitted amounts shall be applied by the Lender to
reduce the unpaid principal balance of this Lease Financing Note. For the
purpose of determining whether any applicable law limiting the amount of
interest or other charges permitted to be collected from the Borrower has been
violated, all Indebtedness that constitutes interest, as well as all other
charges made in connection with the Indebtedness that constitute interest, shall
be deemed to be allocated and spread ratably over the stated term of the Lease
Financing Note. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, such allocation and
spreading shall be effected in such a manner that the rate of interest so
computed is uniform throughout the stated term of the Lease Financing Note.
14. COMMERCIAL PURPOSE. The Borrower represents that the Indebtedness is
being incurred by the Borrower solely for lawful business or commercial
purposes.
15. COUNTING OF DAYS. Except where otherwise specifically provided, any
reference in this Lease Financing Note to a period of "days" means calendar
days, not Business Days.
16. GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. The
provisions of Sections 12.3 and 12.8 of the Agreement are hereby incorporated
into this Lease Financing Note by this reference to the fullest extent as if the
text of such Sections were set forth in their entirety herein.
17. CAPTIONS. The captions of the paragraphs of this Lease Financing Note
are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing this Lease
Financing Note.
18. NOTICES. All notices, demands and other communications required or
permitted to be given by the Lender to the Borrower pursuant to this Lease
Financing Note shall be given in accordance with Section 12.7 of the Agreement.
19. INDIVIDUAL LEASE FINANCING LOAN. This Lease Financing Note is issued
as part of the business lease financing arrangement between the Lender and the
Borrower, as described in the Agreement. The Borrower may not re-borrow any
amounts under this Lease Financing Note that it has previously borrowed and
repaid under this Lease Financing Note.
20. AUTHORITY. The Borrower (and the undersigned representative of the
Borrower) represents that the Borrower has full power, authority and legal right
to execute and deliver this Lease Financing Note, and that this Lease Financing
Note constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Borrower.
21. CONSOLIDATION; AMENDMENT. The Lender, in its sole discretion, may at
any time, amend, restate and consolidate this Lease Financing Note with other
Lease Financing Notes relating to Lease Financing Loans in the same Loan Pool
into a Credit Enhancement Note. The Borrower hereby agrees that it shall
cooperate with the Lender
B-5
in the process of consolidating this Lease Financing Note and shall execute any
and all documents required by the Lender in connection therewith.
22. FULL RECOURSE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in
the Agreement, the obligations of the Borrower hereunder are full recourse
obligations enforceable against the Borrower to the maximum extent allowable
under the law.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower has signed and delivered this Lease
Financing Note under seal or has caused this Lease Financing Note to be signed

restate and consolidate those Lease Financing Notes relating to the Lease
Financing Loans for Loan Pool No. _____ described in Schedule I hereto into this

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Borrower hereby promises to pay to the order of

This Credit Enhancement Note is one of a series of notes (the "PROGRAM
NOTES") issued by certain business owners or landlords of commercial properties
(the "PROGRAM BORROWERS") in connection with Program Loans made or to be made by
the Lender to the Program Borrowers as part of the [_________] Program. This
Credit Enhancement Note evidences the Borrower's obligation, INTER ALIA, (i) to
repay the Lease Financing Loans set forth on Schedule I attached hereto and made
a part hereof (each such loan, a "CONSOLIDATED LOAN" and collectively, the
"CONSOLIDATED LOANS") made by the Lender to the Borrower in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the Aggregate Loan Amount, (ii) to guarantee the
payment of delinquencies or defaults in respect of Program Loans or any
obligations in connection therewith, as determined in Lender's sole discretion
("PROGRAM LOAN DEFICIENCIES"; each such delinquent or defaulted Program Loan or
related obligation, a "DELINQUENT PROGRAM LOAN") in an amount up to the
Aggregate Credit Enhancement Amount, (iii) to pay, subject to rebate, the
Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation Payment, (iv) to pay interest on
the Aggregate Loan Amount, and (v) to pay all Indebtedness. For purposes of this
paragraph, a "delinquent" Program Loan is defined as a

Program Loan where the loan payments are past due by one or more days. Moreover,
a "defaulted" Program Loan is defined as a Program Loan where an event of
default has occurred and remains uncured under the loan documents for such
Program Loan.
1. DEFINITIONS. Terms defined in the Agreement which are not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.
Terms defined herein and also defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings

hereof: [__________] Program, Applicable Interest Rate, Consolidation Payment,
Credit Enhancement Amount, Indebtedness, Loan Amount, Loan Deficiency, Note
Amount, Ratable Share, Scheduled Monthly Loan Payment, State and Stated Maturity

Loans made under the Agreement. The Borrower agrees to pay interest on the
outstanding Note Amount at the Applicable Interest Rate from the Consolidation
Date (defined below) until the Consolidated Loans have been discharged or
otherwise paid in full in accordance with the terms hereof. Interest shall be
payable in one (1) month installments on each Payment Date and, unless otherwise
expressly stated, in arrears (as provided in the Agreement). Interest on the
Aggregate Loan Amount shall be paid as part of the Scheduled Monthly Loan
Payment, and interest on the outstanding Aggregate Credit Enhancement Amount
shall be paid, subject to rebate, as the Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement
Obligation Payment. All computations of interest shall be made by the Lender on
the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be allocated in twelve (12) equal
monthly installments.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall instead pay interest on
the outstanding Note Amount at a rate (the "DEFAULT RATE") per annum equal to
the Applicable Interest Rate PLUS three percent (3.00%), payable upon demand by
the Lender. All obligations hereunder which are not paid by the Borrower when
due and payable shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
3. GUARANTEE. As more fully specified herein, the Borrower hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay to the Lender
(the "GUARANTEE") an amount up to the Aggregate Credit Enhancement Amount PLUS
the aggregate Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation Payments for the

Amount of such Consolidated Loan (including the applicable interest on such
amounts) over the period from the next calendar month following the
Consolidation Date (the "INITIAL PAYMENT DATE") through the applicable Stated
Maturity Date LESS (2) the Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation
Payment for such Consolidated Loan.
(c) SCHEDULED MONTHLY CREDIT ENHANCEMENT OBLIGATION PAYMENTS. The
Borrower agrees to pay the Lender an amount equal to the Scheduled Monthly
Credit Enhancement Obligation Payment for each Consolidated Loan (i) on the
Consolidation Date (as part of the Consolidation Payment) and (ii) on each
Payment Date, commencing on the Initial Payment Date, until the earliest of (A)
the discharge, acceleration or prepayment of such Consolidated Loan (SUBJECT TO
THE FULFILLMENT OF PREPAYMENT AMOUNTS UNDER SECTION 5), (B) payment in full of
the applicable Credit Enhancement Amount or (C) the applicable Stated Maturity
Date. Each Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation Payment shall be
subject to the Monthly Enhancement Rebate provided for in Section 4(d), below.
(d) MONTHLY ENHANCEMENT REBATES.
(i) If, on any Payment Date, there are no outstanding Program
LoanDeficiencies, the Borrower shall be entitled to a rebate on each
Consolidated Loan (a "MONTHLY ENHANCEMENT REBATE") in an amount equal to the
Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation Payment for such Consolidated
Loan PLUS the Borrower's pro rata portion of recoveries of Program Loan
Deficiencies with respect to previously paid Scheduled Monthly Credit
Enhancement Obligation Payments which have not been previously rebated. On the
Initial Payment Date, if there are no outstanding Program Loan Deficiencies, the
Borrower shall also be entitled to a rebate of the Scheduled Monthly Credit
Enhancement Obligation Payments paid pursuant to Section 4(a).
(ii) If, on any Payment Date, there are outstanding Program Loan
Deficiencies, the amount of each Monthly Enhancement Rebate will be reduced, in
whole or in part, by an amount which would equal the Borrower's PRO RATA portion
of such Program Loan Deficiency or Deficiencies MULTIPLIED by the applicable
Ratable Share, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no event shall the Monthly Enhancement
Rebate be reduced by more than the Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement
Obligation Payment. For the purposes of this subsection (ii), the Borrower's PRO
RATA portion of any Program Loan Deficiency shall be calculated by (A) dividing
the Borrower's aggregate Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation
Payments by the aggregate Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation
Payments of all non-delinquent Program Loans and (B) multiplying such amount by
the Program Loan Deficiency or Deficiencies.
C-3
(iii) Any payment (excluding prepayments) made under this Credit
Enhancement Note which is less than (A) the aggregate of (1) the Scheduled
Monthly Loan Payment on each Consolidated Loan and (2) the Scheduled Monthly
Credit Enhancement Obligation Payment on each Consolidated Loan, MINUS (B) the
allocated Monthly Enhancement Rebate, if any, shall be applied ratably among the
Consolidated Loans, in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares (see
Schedule I), creating a Loan Deficiency on each of the Borrower's Consolidated
Loans. If the Borrower's Consolidated Loans are subject to any Loan Deficiency,
the Borrower will not be entitled to any Monthly Enhancement Rebate on any
Consolidated Loan.
(iv) Each Monthly Enhancement Rebate, if any, will be credited
against the payment of the Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation
Payment for the applicable Consolidated Loan due on the immediately succeeding
Payment Date.
(e) DISCHARGE; REPAYMENT OF THE CREDIT ENHANCEMENT AMOUNT.
(i) At any time after the Loan Amount of any Consolidated Loan
has been paid in full by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4(b), above (the "LOAN
AMOUNT REPAYMENT DATE"), the Borrower may elect to have such Consolidated Loan
discharged by making a payment in an amount (the "DISCHARGE AMOUNT") equal to
the lesser of (A) the outstanding Credit Enhancement Amount of such Consolidated
Loan and (B) the Program Credit Enhancement Amount, if any, as of such date.
(ii) In the event that the Borrower does not elect to discharge
any Consolidated Loan in accordance with paragraph (i), above, on the applicable
Loan Amount Repayment Date, the Borrower shall instead repay the outstanding
Credit Enhancement Amount of such Consolidated Loan in monthly installments
(each such installment to be in an amount equal to the Scheduled Monthly Loan
Payment for such Consolidated Loan) on each Payment Date, commencing on the
first Payment Date following the Loan Amount Repayment Date, until the earliest
of (A) payment in full of the outstanding Credit Enhancement Amount, (B) the
discharge or acceleration of such Consolidated Loan (IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION
4 AND 5) or (C) the applicable Stated Maturity Date.
(iii) Upon payment of the Loan Amount and either (A) the
Discharge Amount of any Consolidated Loan or (B) the amount described in Section
4(e)(ii), such Consolidated Loan and the Borrower's obligations hereunder
relating to such Consolidated Loan shall be terminated.
(f) STATED MATURITY DATE. Unless earlier repaid, prepaid or
accelerated hereunder, the outstanding Loan Amount of each Consolidated Loan and
all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, the outstanding Credit Enhancement
Amount of such Consolidated Loan and all accrued and unpaid Scheduled Monthly
Credit Enhancement Obligation Payments shall be due and payable in full on the
applicable Stated Maturity Date.
5. PREPAYMENTS.
C-4
(a) PROCEDURES. Each Consolidated Loan is subject to prepayment in
whole, but not in part. In the event of prepayment, Borrower shall pay the
Prepayment Amount as such term is defined below. The Prepayment Amount is due
and payable regardless of whether the prepayment by Borrower is made voluntarily
or involuntarily, including any prepayment required by the holder's exercise of
its rights of acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Acceleration. In
the event that the Borrower ELECTS to prepay any Consolidated Loan, the Borrower
shall deliver written notice (the "PREPAYMENT NOTICE") of such prepayment
election to the Lender not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60)

exercise of its rights of acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of
Acceleration, the "PREPAYMENT DATE"). Within twenty (20) days of the Lender's
receipt of such Prepayment Notice, the Lender shall deliver a written notice to

be subject to adjustment for Delinquent Program Loans and changes in the
Reinvestment Rate.
(b) PREPAYMENT AMOUNT. On the Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall pay
the Lender an amount, with respect to the Consolidated Loan to be prepaid (the
"PREPAYMENT AMOUNT"), equal to the sum of (i) the outstanding Loan Amount of
such Consolidated Loan on the Prepayment Date, (ii) all interest accrued and
unpaid on the Loan Amount of such Consolidated Loan from the immediately
preceding Payment Date through the Prepayment Date, if any, PLUS an additional
month of interest on such Loan Amount, (iii) all accrued and unpaid Scheduled
Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation Payments due to the Prepayment Date, (iv)
if any Program Loan Deficiencies exist on the Prepayment Date, the lesser of (A)
the outstanding Credit Enhancement Amount and (B) the Program Credit Enhancement
Amount (the "Credit Enhancement Prepayment"), and (v) the Make Whole Premium.

that are not Delinquent Program Loans, multiplied by (ii) the sum (without
duplication) of (A) the Program Prepayment Amounts for all Delinquent

aggregate of (1) the Scheduled Monthly Loan Payment on each Consolidated Loan
and (2) the Scheduled Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation Payment on each
Consolidated Loan MINUS (B) the allocated Monthly Enhancement Rebate, if any,

received the full Scheduled Monthly Loan Payment due on such Payment Date in
accordance with Section 6(a), above, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender,
promptly on demand, as liquidated damages, a late payment charge of $750 per
Consolidated Loan.
7. CONCERNING THE GUARANTEE.
(a) Nature of the Guarantee. The Guarantee is absolute,
unconditional, irrevocable and continuing in nature. The Guarantee is a
guarantee of prompt and punctual payment and performance and is not merely a
guarantee of collection. The obligations of the Borrower under this Credit
Enhancement Note with respect to the Guarantee are direct and primary
obligations of the Borrower and are independent of the obligations (the "PROGRAM
OBLIGATIONS") of any Program Borrower or any other Person with respect to any
Program Note or any document or instrument relating thereto (each a "PROGRAM
LOAN DOCUMENT" and, collectively, the "PROGRAM LOAN DOCUMENTS"), and a separate
action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Borrower to enforce
the Guarantee, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Program
Borrower or any other Person or whether any Program Borrower or any other Person
is joined in any such action or actions. The liabilities and obligations of the
Borrower under this Credit Enhancement Note shall be absolute and unconditional
notwithstanding any event or occurrence, including without limitation:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Program Loan
Document;
(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in
any other term of, all or any of the Program Obligations under any Program
Document, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure
therefrom including, without limitation, any increase in any Program Loan;
(iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any
collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to
departure from any other guarantee, for all or any of the Program Obligations;
C-7
(iv) any manner of application of any collateral, or proceeds
thereof, to all or any of the Program Obligations, or any manner of sale or
other disposition of any collateral or any other assets of the Program
Borrowers;
(v) any change, restructuring or termination of the structure or
existence of any Program Borrower;
(vi) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right
which the Borrower may have at any time against the Lender, whether in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Credit Enhancement Note
and the other Operative Documents or otherwise;
(vii) any impossibility or impracticality of performance,
illegality, FORCE MAJEURE, any act of government, or any other circumstance
which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any
Program Borrower or a guarantor, or any other circumstance or event or happening
whatsoever, whether foreseen or unforeseen and whether similar or dissimilar to
anything referred to above in this Section 7; or
(viii) any variation in the percentage amount of Aggregate Credit
Enhancement among Program Borrowers.
The Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated (at any
time, including, without limitation, after discharge or termination of any
Consolidated Loan or this Credit Enhancement Note), as the case may be, if at
any time any payment (or part thereof) of any of the Program Obligations is
rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Lender upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of any Program Borrower, all as though such payment
had not been made.
(b) RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER AGREEMENTS. Nothing herein shall in any way
modify or limit the effect of terms or conditions set forth in any other
document, instrument or agreement executed by the Borrower or in connection with
the Program Obligations, but each and every term and condition hereof shall be
in addition thereto.
(c) CONSENTS AND WAIVERS. The Borrower acknowledges that the
obligations undertaken herein involve the guarantee of obligations of Persons
other than the Borrower and, in full recognition of that fact, consents and
agrees that the Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or
demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness
hereof: (i) supplement, modify, amend, extend, renew, accelerate or otherwise
change the time for payment or the terms of the Program Obligations or any part
thereof; (ii) supplement, modify, amend or waive, or enter into or give any
agreement, approval or consent with respect to, the Program Obligations or any
part thereof, or any of the Program Documents or any additional security or
guaranties, or any condition, covenant, default, remedy, right, representation
or term thereof or thereunder; (iii) accept new or additional instruments,
documents or agreements in exchange for or relative to any of the Program
Documents or the Program Obligations or any part thereof; (iv) accept partial
payments on the Program Obligations; (v) receive and hold additional security or
guaranties for the Program Obligations or any part thereof;
C-8
(vi) release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate,
exchange, substitute, transfer and/or enforce any security or guaranties, and
apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lender
in its sole and absolute discretion may determine; (vii) release any Person from
any personal liability with respect to the Program Obligations or any part
thereof; (viii) settle, release on terms satisfactory to the Lender or by
operation of applicable laws or otherwise liquidate or enforce any Program
Obligation and any security or guarantee therefor in any manner, consent to the
transfer of any security and bid and purchase at any sale; and/or (ix) consent
to the merger, change or any other restructuring or termination of the
partnership or corporate existence, as the case may be, of the Borrower, any
Program Borrower or any other Person, and correspondingly restructure the
Program Obligations, and any such merger, change, restructuring or termination
shall not affect the liability of the Borrower or the continuing effectiveness
hereof, or the enforceability hereof with respect to all or any part of the
Program Obligations. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower consents and
agrees that Lender may add or delete Program Borrowers and Program Loans.
Borrower waives any defense to enforcement of this guarantee based upon
variation of risk in the addition or deletion of Program Borrowers or in adding
or deleting Program Loans before or after the date hereof.
The Borrower hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of
acceptance, presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest and any other
notice with respect to any of the Program Obligations and the Guarantee and any
requirement that the Lender or any Program Borrower protect, secure, perfect or
insure any lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any
action against any Program Borrower or any other Person or any collateral.
Borrower hereby waives any rights it may now or hereinafter have to an appraisal
of any security or collateral for the Program Obligations, including, without
limitation, any such rights provided by statute. BORROWER ALSO WAIVES ALL
DEFENSES THAT IT MAY BE ENTITLED TO UNDER SURETYSHIP LAW REGARDING THE
GUARANTEE.
(d) SUBROGATION.
(i) Except as set forth in subsection (ii), below, the Borrower
will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation under
the Guarantee, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise.
(ii) If the Borrower should make a payment under the Guarantee,
the Borrower's sole claim and recourse for repayment of amounts so paid shall be
to amounts actually received by the Lender in respect of Program Loan
Deficiencies and held by the Lender for credit against either the next Scheduled
Monthly Credit Enhancement Obligation Payment or the next Scheduled Monthly Loan
Payment due from the Borrower on each Consolidated Loan; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
if the Borrower prepays a Consolidated Loan and pays a Credit Enhancement
Prepayment, such Borrower is not entitled to any future recoveries with respect
to such Consolidated Loan. The Lender does not represent or warrant that (A) any
such amounts will be recovered on Delinquent Program Loans, (B) amounts
recovered on Delinquent Program Loans or other monies will be actually received
and held by the Lender for such credit, or (C) to the extent, if any, that such
monies are so received and held by the Lender,
C-9
such monies will be sufficient to reimburse or indemnify the Borrower for all
amounts paid under the Guarantee.
(e) LIABILITY. The liability of the Borrower hereunder is joint and
several and is independent of any other guaranties at any time in effect with
respect to all or any part of the Program Obligations, and the Borrower's
liability hereunder may be enforced regardless of the existence of any such
guaranties. Any termination by or release of any guarantor in whole or in part
shall not affect the continuing liability of the Borrower hereunder, and no
notice of any such termination or release shall be required.
(f) Borrower is entering into the Guarantee as a material inducement
to Lender to enter into the Program and to make the Lease Financing Loans and
Borrower acknowledges that Lender would not enter into the Program or make such
Lease Financing Loans absent the Guarantee.
8. SECURITY ARRANGEMENTS. This Credit Enhancement Note is entitled to the
benefits of and is secured by the pledge, liens, security title, rights and
security interests granted under the Agreement, the Pledge and Security
Agreement and the other Operative Documents, as the same may be amended,
supplemented or renewed, from time to time.
9. REMEDIES. If an Event of Acceleration occurs, the Lender may take (but
is not obligated to take) any or all of the following actions: (a) declare the
entire Note Amount, all interest, the Make Whole Premium on each Consolidated
Loan and any other amounts payable hereunder to be, whereupon the same shall
become, forthwith due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower, (b) proceed
to enforce or cause to be enforced any remedies provided under any of the
Operative Documents or (c) exercise any other remedies available at law or in
equity. The Borrower agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of
Acceleration, the Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses actually incurred by

disbursements) incident to the enforcement, collection, protection or
preservation of any right or claim of the Lender under the Operative Documents,
including any such fees or costs incurred in connection with any bankruptcy or

AND GUARANTEE. IF ANY OF THE WAIVERS HEREIN ARE DETERMINED TO BE UNENFORCEABLE
UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, SUCH WAIVERS SHALL BE EFFECTIVE TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT

11. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND

provision as it may be applied to any other person or in any other circumstance.
(e) NO WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No failure to exercise and no
delay in exercising on the part of the Lender of any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further
exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. All
rights and remedies provided in this Credit Enhancement Note or any other Loan
Document or any law shall be available to Lender and shall be cumulative.

ARTICLE IV
SPECIAL PROVISION CONCERNING RIGHTS AND
DUTIES WHILE IN POSSESSION OF COLLATERAL
Section 4.1 BORROWER'S POSSESSION. Upon and during the continuance of an
Event of Default or an Event of Acceleration, to the extent the same shall, from
time to time, be in the Borrower's possession, the Borrower will hold all
securities, instruments, chattel paper, documents, certificates and money and
other writings evidencing or relating to the Collateral in trust for the Secured
Party and, upon request or as otherwise
M-7
provided herein, promptly deliver the same to the Secured Party in a form
received and at a time and in a manner satisfactory to the Secured Party. With
respect to the Collateral in the Borrower's possession the Borrower shall at the
Secured Party's request take such action as the Secured Party in its discretion
deems necessary or desirable to create, perfect and protect the Secured Party's
security interest in any of the Collateral.
Section 4.2 SECURED PARTY'S POSSESSION. With respect to all of the
Collateral delivered or transferred to, or otherwise in the custody or control
of (including any items in transit to or set apart for) the Secured Party or any
of its agents, associates or correspondence in accordance with this Security
Agreement, the Borrower agrees that: (a) such Collateral will be, and is deemed
to be in the sole possession of the Secured Party; (b) the Borrower has no right
to withdraw or substitute any such Collateral without the consent of the Secured
Party, which consent may be withheld or delayed in the Secured Party's sole
discretion; (c) the Borrower shall not take or permit any action, or exercise
any voting and other rights, powers and privileges in respect of the Collateral
inconsistent with the Secured Party's sole possession thereof; and (d) the
Secured Party may in its sole discretion and without notice, without obligation
or liability except to account for property actually received by it, and without
affecting or discharging the Obligations, (i) further transfer and segregate the
Collateral in its possession; (ii) subject to its obligations under the Master
Agreement, receive Proceeds and hold the same as part of the Collateral and/or
apply the same as hereinafter provided; and (iii) exchange any of the Collateral
for other property upon reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment.
Following the occurrence of an Event of Default or Event of Acceleration, the
Secured Party is authorized (A) to exercise or cause its nominee to exercise all
or any rights, powers and privileges (including to vote) on or with respect to
the Collateral with the same force and effect as an absolute owner thereof; (B)
whether any of the Obligations be due, in its name or in the Borrower's name or
otherwise, to demand, xxx for, collect or receive any money or property at any
time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for, or make any
compromise or settlement the Secured Party deems desirable with respect to, any
of the Collateral; and (C) to extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in
installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, or release, any of the
Collateral. Notwithstanding the rights accorded the Secured Party with respect
to the Collateral and except to the extent provided below or required by the UCC
or other applicable law (which requirement cannot be modified, waived or
excused), the Secured Party's sole duty with respect to the Collateral in its
possession (with respect to custody, preservation, safekeeping or otherwise)
will be to deal with it in the same manner that the Secured Party deals with
similar property owned and possessed by it. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Secured Party, and any of its officers, directors, partners, trustees, owners,
employees and agents, to the extent permitted by law (1) will have no duty with
respect to the Collateral or the rights granted hereunder; (2) will not be
required to sell, invest, substitute, replace or otherwise dispose of the
Collateral; (3) will not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any
rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral; (4) will not be liable
for (or deemed to have made an election of or exercised any right or remedy on
account of) any delay or failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the
Collateral; and (5) will have no obligation or liability in connection with the
Collateral or arising under this Security Agreement. The Borrower agrees that
such standard of care is reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances.

related to such Loan Pool and make them available to the Secured Party at places

Xxxxx, Xxxxx 00000
Re: Master Business Lease Financing Agreement dated as of May 11,
2000 among AMRESCO Leasing Corporation, eRoom System SPE, Inc.,
RoomSystems, Inc and eRoom System Technologies, Inc.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as [special] counsel to eRoom System SPE, Inc., a Nevada
corporation (the "BORROWER"), RoomSystems, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("RSi")
and eRoom System Technologies, Inc. ("eROOM" and collectively with the Borrower
and RSi, the "eROOM PARTIES") in connection with the transactions contemplated
by that certain Master Lease Financing Agreement dated as of May 11, 2000 among
AMRESCO Leasing Corporation ("AMRESCO") and the eRoom Parties (the "AGREEMENT").
This opinion is rendered at the request of the eRoom Parties pursuant to Section
5.1 of the Agreement. All capitalized terms used in this letter, without
definition, have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.
In connection with this letter, we have examined executed originals or
copies of executed originals of each of the following documents, each of which
is dated the date hereof or as of the date hereof, unless otherwise noted
(collectively, the "OPERATIVE DOCUMENTS"): (a) the Agreement; (b) the form of
Lease Financing Note, which is not dated; (c) the form of Credit Enhancement
Note, which is not dated; (d) the License Agreement; (e) the Purchase Agreement;
(f) the Stock Pledge Agreement; (g) the form of Pledge and Security Agreement;
and (h) the Confidentiality Agreement. In addition, we have examined the
following documents (collectively, the "DUE DILIGENCE DOCUMENTS"): [insert a
list of all the documents, including certificates of good standing, articles of
incorporation, bylaws, corporate records and certificates and documents of
public officials examined in order to give the opinion.]
We have examined originals or certified copies of such corporate records of
each of the eRoom Parties and other certificates and documents of officials of
the eRoom Parties, public officials and others as we have deemed appropriate for
purposes of this letter. As to various questions of fact relevant to this
letter, we have relied, without independent investigation, upon the Due
Diligence Documents and certificates of public officials, certificates of
officers of the
AMRESCO Leasing Corporation
[Date]
Page 2
RSi Parties and representations and warranties of each of the eRoom Parties in
the Operative Documents, all of which we assume to be true, correct and
complete.
We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all
documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to authentic original
documents of all copies submitted to us as conformed, certified or reproduced
copies. We have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons. We have
assumed the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Agreement by
AMRESCO and that the Agreement and each of the Operative Documents to which it
is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of AMRESCO,
enforceable against AMRESCO in accordance with its terms.
Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, exceptions,
qualifications and limitations set forth hereinafter, we are of the opinion
that:
1. Each of the eRoom Parties is validly existing as a corporation in good
standing under the laws of the State of Nevada, the jurisdiction in
which each is organized, and is duly qualified and in good standing as
a foreign corporation in all other jurisdictions in which it conducts
business.
2. Each of the eRoom Parties has obtained all necessary licenses and
approvals in all jurisdictions in which its business requires such
licenses and approvals, except where the failure to have obtained such
licenses or approvals would not have a material adverse effect on the
transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents. Each eRoom Party
has corporate power to enter into the Agreement and any other
Operative Document to which it is a party.
3. (a) The execution and delivery of the Agreement by the respective
eRoom Parties and the performance by each eRoom Party of its
obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate action on the part of such eRoom Party; (b) the Agreement
has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each eRoom Party;
and (c) the Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligation of
each eRoom Party, enforceable against each such party in accordance
with its terms.
4. The execution and delivery of the Agreement by the respective eRoom
Parties, do not, and the performance by each eRoom Party of its
obligations under the Agreement will not, result in any violation of
any law, rule or regulation of any Included Law (defined below) or any
order, writ, judgment or decree.
5. The execution and delivery of the Agreement by the respective eRoom
Parties do not, and the performance by the eRoom Parties of their
respective obligations under the Agreement will not, (a) result in a
violation of the Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws of such eRoom
Party or (b) breach or result in a default or result in the
AMRESCO Leasing Corporation

Page 3
acceleration of or entitle any party to accelerate under any agreement
or instrument to which any eRoom Party is bound.
6. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to
or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body
(each, a "FILING") is required under any of the Included Laws for
the due execution and delivery of the Agreement by any of the
eRoom Parties and the performance by the eRoom Parties of their
respective obligations under the Agreement.
7. None of the eRoom Parties is a party to any adversial action,
suit, or proceeding pending or, to the best of our knowledge,
threatened, or before any Federal, state, municipal or other
governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or
instrumentality.
The opinions and other matters in this letter are qualified in their
entirety and subject to the following:
A. We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the
Included Laws. We have made no special investigation or review of any
published constitutions, treaties, laws, rules or regulations or judicial
or administrative decisions ("LAWS"), other than a review of (i) the Laws
of the State of Idaho, (ii) Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes and
(iii) the Federal Laws of the United States of America. For purposes of
this opinion, the term "INCLUDED LAWS" means the items described in clauses
(i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence that are, in our experience,
normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated in the
Agreement.
B. This opinion letter is limited to the matters expressly stated herein and
no opinions are to be inferred or may be implied beyond the opinions
expressly set forth herein.
C. The matters expressed in this letter are subject to and qualified and
limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer and
conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting
creditors' rights and remedies generally; and (ii) general principles of
equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law
or in equity).
D. We have assumed that no fraud, dishonesty, forgery, coercion, duress or
breach of fiduciary duty exists or will exist with respect to any of the
matters relevant to the opinions expressed in this letter.
E. We express no opinion as to the compliance of the transactions contemplated
by the Agreement with any regulations or governmental requirements
applicable to any party other than the eRoom Parties.

entitled to rely upon this letter. Without our prior written consent, this
letter may not be quoted in whole or in part or

Notes:
1. Revenue splits: the first number in the fraction indicates eRoom's (or
Borrower's) share. (Ex: 25/75 would mean eRoom (or Borrower) receive 25% of
revenues).
2. Relative to the Percentage Plan:
a. The percentages for Lessees under 100 rooms will be as follows:
instead of 25/75 on Refreshment Center revenue, it will be 27/73; and
instead of 75/25 on fees for room safes, it will be 73/27
b. If a cabinet is ordered for the Refreshment Center, the 25/75 split on
the Refreshment Center revenue will remain the same; however, the
revenue from the room safe will be split 88/12 (under 100-room
properties will be 40/10).
c. For room safes, "$1.34 fee 75/25" means that the Lessee must charge
each guest a fee of $1.34 for safe usage and this fee will be split
75% to eRoom (or Borrower), 25% to the Lessee.
3. Relative to the Platinum Plan:
a. There are three options for each Refreshment Center model. For
example, the RS 5000 allows i) a fixed payment of $.72 per room per
day, ii) a fixed payment of $.62 per room per day with 10% of all
revenues paid to eRoom (or Borrower) and iii) a fixed payment of $.47
per room per day with 25% of all revenues paid to eRoom (or Borrower).
b. $.025 will be added to the Refreshment Center thresholds of any
property under 100 rooms. (Example: The threshold for the RS 5000
would increase from $.72 to $.745.)
4. Relative to the Threshold Plan:
a. For purposes of calculating the payment split to eRoom (or Borrower),
the monthly Refreshment Center revenue is calculated. Then, the
average revenue per room per day is calculated and this number is then
applied to the applicable threshold.
b. eRoom (or Borrower) receives 90% up to the threshold amount and then
15% thereafter. However, *** of the *** is paid to the hotel
franchisor. For example, the RS 5000 provides that eRoom (or Borrower)
receives 90% of the first $.779 cents per room per day and then 10% of
any revenue over $.779 with *** by eRoom (or Borrower) to the hotel
franchisor.
