4. TERMS OF RENTAL OF ATMs/RENTAL FEE
----------------------------------
4.1 Each Rental Notice shall include the specific terms of the rental of
the ATM Group covered, and shall provide the following:
a) The term of the rental to Bank 24 of the ATMs in each ATM Group (the
"Rental Term") shall commence on the date on which Bank 24 takes
delivery of the Equipment on behalf of HFT (the "Delivery Date") and
shall, unless sooner terminated by agreement of the parties, end on
January 31, 2001 (the "Termination Date"). Unless otherwise agreed
by the parties,
3
within 30 days after the Termination Date with respect to each ATM
Group, Bank 24 shall, upon request of HFT and at Bank 24's sole cost
and expense, remove the ATMs in such ATM Group from the Equipment
Location and make the same available to HFT at any location chosen
by HFT.
b) For purposes of this Agreement, the term "`Principal Rental Amount"
shall mean the amount of the purchase price for each ATM Group that
was paid by HFT (that is, the total purchase price less (i) the
Advance Rental Payment attributable to such ATM Group), and (ii) any
installment payments of Principal Rental Amount previously made by
Bank 24 under Section 4.1(c) and (d) below with respect to such ATM
Group prior to any determination date.
c) Commencing after the date of the first Rental Notice and until June
30, 1998, Bank 24 shall pay HFT on each June 30 and December 31 (or,
if such date falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the next succeeding
Working Day)(each, a "Payment Date") a rental fee for each ATM Group
purchased by HFT hereunder (the "Rental Fee") equal to 10% of the
Principal Rental Amount, plus an interest factor (the "Interest
Factor") equal to 11% per annum of the Principal Rental Amount with
respect to such ATM Group, payable in arrears for the period of time
elapsed since the date of payment by HFT of the purchase price for
such ATM Group or the last Payment Date, as the case may be, and up
to and including the current Payment Date, calculated on a 360 day
per year basis.
d) As of June 30, 1998 all Principal Rental Amounts shall be aggregated
and from and after such date, Bank 24 shall pay HFT the Principal
Rental Amount so aggregated in six equal semi-annual installments of
principal and interest at a rate of 11% per annum, payable in
arrears on each Payment Date from June 30, 1998 to December 31,
2000. Notwithstanding the aggregation of amounts provided in this
paragraph (d), at all times during the term of this Agreement, each
payment of a Principal Rental Amount shall be allocated to the
specific ATM Group for which the payment is being made, and Bank 24
shall, upon each payment, furnish HFT with a cumulative schedule
showing the amount paid with respect to each ATM Group. If all 400
ATMs have not been purchased under the IBM purchase Agreement by
June 30, 1998, HFT and Bank 24 shall negotiate with a view towards
reaching mutually agreeable terms for extending the period under
which HFT will purchase ATM's on behalf of Bank 24 under this Rental
Agreement, it being understood that notwithstanding such extension,
the Rental Fees due with respect to all ATM's purchased hereunder
will be payable on or before December 31, 2000.
4
e) The Principal Rental Amount plus the aggregate of all Interest
Factor due as of any time with respect to each single ATM Group
shall be referred to as the "Outstanding Group Amount". The
aggregate of all Outstanding Group Amounts shall be referred to
herein as the "Total Outstanding Amount"), both before and after
June 30, 1998.
f) It is understood that Bank 24 may, without cost or penalty, prepay
the amount of any Rental Fees with respect to any ATM Group or all
ATM Groups in advance. Any such prepayment shall be made with
respect to the entire Outstanding Group Amount due with respect to
any ATM Groups for which Rental Fees are prepaid. If prepayment is
made with respect to any ATM Group, the Rental Term for such ATM
Group shall nevertheless continue through the Termination Date. In
the event of prepayment by Bank 24 of the Total Outstanding Amount
hereunder, the Assignment shall be automatically terminated and HFT
shall be considered, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, to
grant Bank 24 rental of all of the Equipment free of any further
charges for the period up to and including the Termination Date. All
expenses of operation of the Equipment during such period shall be
borne by Bank 24.
g) In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this
Agreement with respect to payments to HFT or the provisions of any
Rental Notice, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.

of the date of such termination notice, HFT shall not be
9
entitled to exercise enforcement remedies with respect to the Equipment.

of any loss, theft, damage or destruction to the Equipment or
any part thereof;
(b) notify HFT promptly of the occurrence of any Event of Default;
(c) within 180 days for the closing of any fiscal year, furnish

13.1 The term of this Rental Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and,
unless earlier terminated, shall end on January 31, 2001.
14. DAMAGES FOR FAILURE TO PURCHASE EQUIPMENT
14.1 HFT acknowledges that, because Bank 24 is a start up enterprise, the
sources from which Bank 24 may obtain rental of the Equipment are limited
and that Bank 24 is foregoing other opportunities in entering into this
transaction with HFT. HFT further acknowledges that in the event that HFT
should, after the date of execution of this Rental Agreement, for reasons
which are attributed to its own fault, fail to continue to execute
purchases of the Equipment as provided in Section 3 hereof, the discount
prices negotiated by Bank 24 with IBM could be placed in jeopardy. While
the parties agree that damages from any failure to continue to fund will
be certain and substantial, the amount of such damages will be difficult
to ascertain. The parties therefore agree that damages in such event will
be liquidated in the amount of one third of the purchase price under the
IBM Purchase Agreement of any ATMs which HFT has refused to purchase as
required hereunder. If HFT refuses to purchase Equipment when it is under
an obligation to do so in this agreement, HFT will be considered to have
refused to purchase any Equipment ordered, plus any further ATM's which
Bank 24 is entitled to
10
require HFT to purchase hereunder.
15. GENERAL
15.1 This Rental Agreement shall not be varied except by agreement in writing
between the parties hereto. No waiver or consent by HFT shall be
effective unless in writing signed by or on behalf of HFT. No failure or
delay on the part of any the parties in exercising any right or power
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right or power preclude any other or further
exercise of any such right or power. The rights and remedies herein
provided are cumulative with and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
provided by law.
15.2 If any provision hereof is void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
such voidness or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of (i) such provision in any other jurisdiction or (ii)
any other provision hereof in such or any other jurisdiction.
15.3 All notices or other communications under this Rental Agreement shall be
in writing and sent by first class post, by telecopy, international
courier or hand delivered to the addressee at its address as indicated in
the heading hereto (or to such other addresses that a party may notify
to the other) and shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee
five Working Days after posting if sent by first class post or on
delivery if delivered by hand or international courier.
15.4 Subject to the express periods of grace referred to in Section 11.1,
punctual payment of amounts payable by Bank 24 and timely performance of
Bank 24 of each of its obligations under this Rental Agreement shall be
of the essence and shall be conditions of this Rental Agreement. In case
of failure of Bank 24 to comply with any provision of this Rental
Agreement, HFT shall have the right (but not the obligation) to effect
such compliance and Bank 24 shall reimburse such HFT upon demand for
expenses related thereto.
15.5 Section headings are for ease of reference only and references to
Sections are, unless otherwise stated, references to Sections of this
Rental Agreement. All schedules and appendices to this Rental Agreement
shall be deemed to be an integral part hereof. References to a statute or
statutory provision shall include reference to any statutory modification
or re-enactment of the same. "Working Day" means any day other than a
Saturday or a Sunday, on which banks generally are open for business in
both in New York and Budapest.
15.6 This Rental Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of New
York, with the exception of any conflict of law rules.
11
15.7 Any dispute concerning the interpretation and/or the application of
this Rental Agreement shall be settled by arbitration according to the
rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration panel
will consist of three arbitrators appointed in accordance with such
rules. The arbitration proceedings will take place in New York, New
York and will be conducted in the English language. Save for the
purpose of enforcement or execution of any award or order in any such
arbitration (and save in respect of any application by a party to a
court for relief by way of provisional or conservatory measures) the
parties hereby exclude all rights of appeal or recourse to any court of
law in relation to any such arbitration, award or order. For the
avoidance of doubt, it is agreed by the parties that procedures for
seizure of the Equipment upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
shall be considered a conservatory measure.
IN WITNESS whereof the parties hereto have hereunto set their hands the day and
year first above written.

Appendix D: Ordering and Delivery Procedure
1. If the Customer wishes to order a predefined configuration, please go to
step 4.
If the Customer identifies the need for a new configuration, then he
requests a priced configuration from the local IBM organization.
2. IBM responds to such request within 10 local working days either by quoting
a configuration with prices for hardware, software and maintenance or
proposing changes to allow a workable configuration.
3. If the Customer decides to proceed, IBM will prepare the appropriate
Supplements which both parties have to sign.
4. In case the Customer wants to order the defined configuration, he notifies
IBM by an Order Letter.
5. The Customer notifies at the same time his Financing Institution.
6. IBM notifies the Customer of the estimated delivery date within 5 local
working days of receiving the order by fax.
7. If the Customer wishes to change the order because of the estimated
delivery date, he has to ask IBM to do so within 5 local working days upon
receipt of IBMs fax and reinitiate the process from step 4 onwards.
8. The Customer causes his Financing Institution to send an Order Confirmation
to IBM within 5 local working days after it has been notified by the
Customer. Where appropriate the Financing Institution sends also an
assignment of purchasing rights to IBM.
9. If no changes have been requested and agreed upon during the period of 5
local working days after sending the fax by IBM (step 6.), the order
becomes firm and unchangeable.
If the Financing Institution's confirmation is not received within the
agreed period, IBM reserves the right to stop or delay the manufacturing or
internal ordering and delivery process.
Consequently the estimated delivery period as communicated in step 6 may
become obsolete.
10. IBM then confirms the planned delivery date to the Customer by fax.
11. IBM sends an Advance Payment Invoice to the assigned payer.
12. Full payment is made to IBMs bank account specified in above invoice.
13. IBM notifies the Customer on arrival of the deliverables at the IBM
Distribution Center in Germany and then on the local platform.

notice, etc.) to IBM in case IBM is contractually responsible for
importation.
15. IBM causes the deliverable to be customs-cleared when agreed between the
parties.
16. IBM delivers the deliverables to the warehouse designated by the Customer.
17. Both Parties commit to make every effort to respond as soon as possible
within the maximum elapse times described above. Failure of either Party to
meet the defined maximum elapse times will however not cause the
Termination for Breach of Contract as meant in Article "Termination" sub 4
of the Agreement.
Liability for any such failure under this Appendix is limited to the value
of 2% (two percent) of the affected equipment.
