shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver of any or all of Lessor's
rights hereunder, including without limitation those rights of Lessor set forth

3. Title. This is an agreement of lease only. Lessee shall have no right, title
or interest in or to the Equipment leased hereunder, except as to the use
thereof subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. All of the Equipment
shall remain personal property (whether or not the Equipment may at any time
become attached or affixed to real property). The Equipment is and shall remain
the sole and exclusive property of Lessor or its assignees. This Lease is
intended to constitute a true lease and not a sale of the related Equipment.
However, to the extent, at any time or from time to time, this Lease is
construed to be a transaction intended as security, Lessor retains
-2-
and Lessee hereby grants to Lessor a security interest in and to the Equipment,
the proceeds of any sale thereof, the assignment, lease, or sublease thereof,
any insurance proceeds with respect thereto, and any other rights of Lessee,
tangible or intangible, in and to the Equipment, the Lease, and their proceeds;
provided, further, that Lessee may not, to the extent this Lease is construed to
be a transaction intended as security, sell or otherwise encumber the Equipment
without Lessor's prior written consent. No right, title or interest in the
Equipment shall pass to Lessee other than, conditioned upon Lessee's compliance
with and fulfillment of the terms and conditions of this Lease, the right to
maintain possession and use of the Equipment for the Lease Term as provided in
Schedule(s). Any Additions, whether before or after the Commencement Date, shall
become the property of Lessor upon being so incorporated or affixed and shall be
returned to Lessor as provided in Section 4. Upon the request of Lessor, Lessee
will affix to the Equipment labels or other markings supplied by Lessor
indicating Lessor's ownership of the Equipment and shall keep the same affixed
for the entire term of this Lease. Lessee agrees to promptly execute and deliver
or cause to be executed and delivered to Lessor and Lessor is hereby authorized
to record or file, any statement and/or instrument requested by Lessor for the
purpose of showing Lessor's interest in the Equipment, including without
limitation, financing statements, security agreements, and waivers with respect
to rights in the Equipment from any owners or mortgagees of any real estate
where the Equipment may be located. Lessee hereby appoints Lessor as Lessee's
limited attorney-in-fact to execute and record all documents necessary to
perfect or maintain the perfection of Lessor's interests hereunder or to make
claim for, receive payment of, and execute and endorse all documents, checks or
drafts for loss or damage under any insurance policy. Lessee shall pay Lessor
for any costs and fees relating to any filings hereunder including but not
limited to, costs, fees, searches, document preparation, documentary stamps,
privilege taxes and reasonable attorneys' fees. If any item of Equipment
includes computer software, Lessee shall execute and deliver and shall cause
Supplier (as hereinafter defined) to deliver all such documents as are necessary
to effectuate assignment of all applicable software licenses to Lessor. Lessee
shall at its expense: (a) indemnify, protect and defend Lessor's title to the
Equipment from and against all persons claiming against or through Lessee; (b)
at all times keep the Equipment free from any and all liens, encumbrances,
attachments, levies, executions, burdens, charges or legal process of any and
every type whatsoever; (c) give Lessor immediate written notice of any breach of
this Lease described in clause (b); and (d) indemnify, protect and save Lessor
harmless from any loss, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees)
caused by the Lessee's breach of any of the provisions of this Lease.
4. Acceptance and Return of Equipment. Lessor shall, at any time prior to
unconditional acceptance of all Equipment by Lessee, have the right to cancel
this Lease with respect to such Equipment (and if the Equipment or any portion
thereof has not previously been accepted, Lessor may refuse to pay for the
Equipment or any portion thereof or refuse to cause the same to be delivered)
if: (a) the Acceptance Date with respect to any item of Equipment to be leased
pursuant to any Schedule has not occurred within sixty (60) days of the
estimated Acceptance Date set forth in such Schedule or (b) there shall be, in
the reasonable judgment of Lessor, a material adverse change in the financial
condition or credit standing of Lessee or of any guarantor of Lessee's
performance under this Lease or failure of Lessee to substantially achieve
operational and financial objectives as set forth in Lessee's most recent
operating plan. Upon any cancellation by Lessor pursuant to this Section or the
provisions of any Schedule, Lessee shall forthwith reimburse to Lessor all sums
paid by Lessor with respect to such Equipment plus all costs and expenses of
Lessor incurred in connection with such Equipment and any interest or rentals
due hereunder in connection with such Equipment and shall pay to Lessor all
other sums then due hereunder, whereupon if Lessee is not then in default and
has fully performed all of its obligations hereunder, Lessor will, upon request
of Lessee, transfer to Lessee without warranty or recourse any rights that
Lessor may then have with respect to such Equipment. Lessee shall execute and
deliver to Lessor the Equipment Acceptance within fifteen (15) days after the
Acceptance Date. Lessee agrees, before execution of the aforesaid Equipment
Acceptance, to inform Lessor in writing of any defects in the Equipment, or in
the installation thereof, which have come to the attention of Lessee or its
agents and which might give rise to a claim by Lessee against the Seller or any
other person. If Lessee fails to give notice to Lessor of any such defects or
fails to deliver to Lessor the Equipment Acceptance as provided herein, it shall
be deemed an acknowledgment by Lessee (for purposes of this Lease only) that no
such defects in the Equipment or its installation exist and it shall be
conclusively presumed, solely as between Lessor and its assignees and Lessee,
that such Equipment has been unconditionally accepted by Lessee for lease
hereunder. Except as otherwise provided in any Schedule, Lessee shall provide
Lessor ninety (90) days prior written notice of its intention to return the
Equipment upon expiration of the Initial Lease Term. Upon expiration or the
cancellation or termination of the Lease with respect to any Equipment, Lessee
shall, at its own expense, assemble, crate, insure and deliver all of the
Equipment and all of the service records and all software and software
documentation subject to this Lease and any Schedules hereto to Lessor in the
same good condition and repair as when received, reasonable wear and tear
resulting only from proper use thereof excepted, to such reasonable destination
within the continental United States as Lessor shall designate. The Equipment
shall be deemed delivered to Lessor upon Lessor's execution of its certificate
of receipt. Lessee shall, immediately prior to such return of each item of
Equipment, provide to Lessor a letter from the manufacturer of the equipment or
another service organization reasonably acceptable to Lessor certifying that
said item is in good working order, reasonable wear and tear resulting only from
proper use thereof excepted, and all software is included thereon. If any
computer software requires relicensing when removed from Lessee's
-3-
premises, Lessee shall bear all costs of such relicensing. If Lessee fails for
any reason to provide the notice set forth above or to re-deliver the Equipment
back to Lessor in accordance with the terms set forth above, Lessee shall pay to
Lessor, at Lessor's election, an amount equal to the highest monthly payment set
forth in the Schedule for a period of not less than three (3) months and at the
end of such period of time, Lessee shall return the Equipment to Lessor as
provided herein. If Lessee fails or refuses to return the Equipment as provided
herein at the end of any holdover period, Lessee shall pay to Lessor, at
Lessor's option, an amount equal to the highest monthly payment set forth in the
Schedule or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is less, for each month
or portion thereof, until Lessee so returns the Equipment to Lessor.
5. Disclaimer of Warranties. The Lessee and Lessor agree that this Lease is a
Finance Lease as defined in Uniform Commercial Code Article 2A--Leases. The
Lessee also acknowledges that: (a) the Lessee has selected the Supplier and
directed the Lessor to purchase the Equipment from the Supplier; (b) the Lessee
has been informed in writing before signing this Lease, that the Lessee is
entitled under Article 2A to the promises and warranties, including those of any
third party, provided to the Lessor by the Supplier in connection with or as
part of the contract by which the Lessor acquired the Equipment; and (c) the
Lessee may communicate with the Supplier and receive an accurate and complete
statement of those promises and warranties, including any disclaimers and
limitations thereof or of any remedies in connection therewith. LESSEE HAS
EXCLUSIVELY SELECTED AND CHOSEN THE TYPE, DESIGN, CONFIGURATION, SPECIFICATION
AND QUALITY OF THE EQUIPMENT HEREIN LEASED AND THE SUPPLIER THEREOF, AS SET
FORTH IN THE SCHEDULES. LESSOR MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANT, EITHER
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION,
THE CONDITION OF THE EQUIPMENT, ITS MERCHANTABILITY OR ITS FITNESS,
ADAPTABILITY, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF QUIET ENJOYMENT OR NON-INTERFERENCE OR
SUITABILITY FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND, LESSEE LEASES, HIRES AND RENTS THE
EQUIPMENT AS IS." Lessee understands and agrees that neither Supplier, nor any
agent of Supplier, is an agent of Lessor or is in any manner authorized to waive
or alter any term or condition of this Lease. Lessor shall not be liable for any
loss or damage suffered by Lessee or by any other person or entity, direct or
indirect or consequential, including, but not limited to, business interruption
and injury to persons or property, resulting from non-delivery or late delivery,
installation, failure or faulty operation' condition, suitability or use of the
Equipment leased by Lessee hereunder, or for any failure of any representations,
warranties or covenants made by the Supplier. Any claims of Lessee shall not be
made against Lessor but shall be made, if at all, solely and exclusively against
Supplier, or any persons other than the Lessor. Lessor hereby authorizes Lessee
to enforce during the term of this Lease, in its name, but at Lessee's sole
effort and expense, all warranties, agreements or representations, if any, which
may have been made by Supplier to Lessor or to Lessee, and Lessor hereby assigns
to Lessee solely for the limited purpose of making and prosecuting any such
claim, all rights which Lessor may have against Supplier for breach of warranty
or other representation respecting the Equipment.
6. Care, Transfer and Use of Equipment. Lessee, at its own expense, shall
maintain the Equipment in good operating condition, repair and appearance in
accordance with Supplier's specifications and in compliance with all applicable
laws and regulations and shall protect the Equipment from deterioration except
for reasonable wear and tear resulting only from proper use thereof. When
generally offered, Lessee shall, at its expense, keep a _______ maintenance
contract (e.g. upgrades) in full force and effect on all Equipment (except
personal computers), throughout the term of this Lease and any Schedule hereto.
The disrepair or inoperability of the Equipment regardless of the cause thereof
shall not relieve Lessee of the obligation to pay rental hereunder. Lessee shall
not make any Addition to the Equipment (other than normal operating accessories
or controls) without prior written consent of Lessor. Lessee will not, and will
not permit anyone other than the authorized field engineering representatives of
Supplier or other maintenance organization reasonably acceptable to Lessor to
effect any inspection, adjustment, preventative or remedial maintenance or
repair to the Equipment. Lessee may not (a) relocate or operate the Equipment at
locations other than the Premises, except with Lessor's prior written consent,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld if such other location within the
continental United States, or (b) SELL, CONVEY, TRANSFER, ASSIGN, SUBLEASE,
ENCUMBER ALL OR ANY OF ITS INTERESTS IN THIS LEASE, ANY SCHEDULE OR ANY ITEMS OF
EQUIPMENT (INCLUDING PARTING WITH POSSESSION OF ANY ITEM OF EQUIPMENT) AND ANY
SUCH PURPORTED TRANSACTION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID AND OF NO FORCE OR EFFECT. In
the event of a relocation of the Equipment or any item thereof to which Lessor
consents, all costs (including, but not limited to, Uniform Commercial Code
filing fees, any additional property taxes or other taxes and any additional
expense of insurance coverage) resulting from any such relocation, shall be
promptly paid by Lessee upon presentation to Lessee of evidence supporting such
cost. Lessor shall have the right during normal hours upon reasonable notice to
Lessee, subject to applicable laws and regulations, to enter Lessee's Premises
in order to inspect, observe, affix labels or other markings, or to exhibit the
Equipment to prospective purchasers or future lessees thereof, or to otherwise
protect Lessor's interest therein.
-4-
7. Net Lease. THIS LEASE AND ANY SCHEDULE HERETO IS A NET LEASE, AND ALL
PAYMENTS HEREUNDER ARE NET TO LESSOR. Al1 taxes, assessments, licenses, and
other charges (including, without limitation personal property taxes and sales,
franchise, gross receipt, use and leasing taxes and penalties and interest on
such taxes) imposed, levied or assessed on the ownership, possession, rental or
use of the Equipment during the term of this Lease and any Schedule hereto
(except for Lessor's federal or state net income taxes) shall be paid by Lessee
when due and before the same shall become delinquent, whether such taxes are
assessed or would ordinarily be assessed against Lessor or Lessee. To the extent
possible under applicable law, for personal property or ad valorem tax return
purposes only, Lessee shall include the Equipment on such returns as may be
required, which returns shall be timely filed by it. In any event, Lessee shall
file all tax returns required for itself or Lessor and Lessor hereby appoints
Lessee as its attorney-in-fact for such purpose. In case of failure by Lessee to
so pay said taxes, assessments, licenses or other charges, Lessor may pay all or
any part of such items, in which event the amount so paid by Lessor including
any interest or penalties thereon and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by
Lessor shall be immediately paid by Lessee to Lessor as additional rental
hereunder. Lessee shall promptly pay all costs, expenses and obligations of
every kind and nature incurred in connection with the use or operation of the
Equipment which may arise or become due during the term of this Lease and any
Schedule hereto, whether or not specifically mentioned herein. In case of
failure by Lessee to comply with any provision of this Lease and any Schedule
hereto, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to effect such
compliance on behalf of Lessee. In such event, all costs and expenses incurred
by Lessor in effecting such compliance shall be immediately paid by Lessee to
Lessor as additional rental hereunder.
8. Indemnity. Lessee shall and does hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold
Lessor and its assigns harmless from and against any and all liability, loss,
costs, injury, damage, penalties, suits, judgments, demands, claims, expenses
and disbursements (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) of
any kind whatsoever arising out of, on account of, or in connection with this
Lease, any Schedule hereto and the Equipment leased hereunder, including,
without limitation, its manufacture, selection, purchase, delivery, rejection,
installation, ownership, possession, leasing, renting, operation, control, use,
maintenance and the return thereof. Lessee's indemnity shall include any loss of
the tax benefits which Lessor, its affiliates, partners and assignees currently
are entitled to enjoy caused by (a) acts, omissions or misrepresentations of
Lessee and (b) acts of any governmental authority. Such items shall include, but
not be limited to the following if (i) Lessor shall not be entitled to
accelerated cost recover deductions (the "MACRS deductions") as allowed under
Section 168 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, ("the Code") based
on 100% of the Original Cost of the Equipment to Lessor and utilizing the
depreciable life and method referred to in the attached Schedule(s), or (ii) if
Lessor loses any other intended tax benefit as a result of any subsequent change
in the Code, (including a change in the maximum federal corporate income tax
rates from the rates in effect under the Code as of the date of this Lease
hereinafter referred to as a "Tax Rate Change") or rules and regulations
promulgated pursuant thereto, whether or not retroactive, which impacts Lessor's
intended return and economics from this transaction, or (iii) if Lessor is
required to recognize income other than rent as contemplated under the Lease, or
(iv) if any item of income, gain, loss or deduction is treated as having been
derived from or allocable to sources outside the U.S. This indemnity shall
survive the Initial Lease Term or earlier cancellation or termination of this
Lease and any Schedule hereto.
9. Insurance. Commencing on the date that risk of loss or damage passes to
Lessor from the Supplier and continuing until Lessee has re-delivered the
Equipment to Lessor and Lessor has accepted receipt of the Equipment from
Lessee, Lessee shall, at its own expense, keep the Equipment insured against all
risks of loss or damage from every and any cause whatsoever in such amounts (but
in no event less than the greater of the replacement value thereof or the amount
set forth in the applicable casualty schedule, whichever is higher and with a
deductible amount not to exceed $5,000.00) and in such form as is satisfactory
to Lessor. All such insurance policies shall protect Lessor and Lessor's
assignee(s) as principal loss payees as their interests may appear. Lessee shall
also, at its own expense, carry public liability insurance, with Lessor and
Lessor's assignee(s) as an additional insured, in such amounts with such
companies and in such form as is satisfactory to Lessor, with respect to injury
to person or property resulting from or based in any way upon or in any way
connected with or relating to the installation, use or alleged use, or operation
of any or all of the Equipment, or its location or condition. Not less than ten
(10) days prior to the Acceptance Date, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor
satisfactory evidence of such insurance and shall further deliver evidence of
renewal of each such policy not less than thirty (30) days prior to expiration
thereof. Each such policy shall contain an endorsement providing that the
insurer will give Lessor and it's assignees not less than thirty (30) days prior
written notice of the effective date of any alteration, change, cancellation, or
modification of such policy or the failure by Lessee to timely pay all required
premiums, costs or charges with respect thereto. Upon Lessor's request, Lessee
shall cause its insurance agent(s) to execute and deliver to Lessor Loss Payable
Clause Endorsement and Additional Insured Endorsement (bodily injury and
property damage liability insurance) forms provided to Lessee by Lessor and name
any assignees of Lessor designated by Lessor. Each policy shall be primary
without rights of contribution from any other insurance which is carried by
Lessor and shall expressly provide that all of the provisions thereof, except
the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if there were a
separate policy covering each insured. Each policy shall provide
-5-
for payment to Lessor and its assignees notwithstanding any action, inaction or
breach of representation or warranty by Lessee or Lessor. In case of the failure
to procure or maintain such insurance, Lessor shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to obtain such insurance and there shall be no recourse against
Lessor or its assignees for payment of such premiums or other amounts with
respect thereto. Any premium paid by Lessor shall be immediately due and payable
by Lessee to Lessor as additional rent hereunder. The maintenance of any policy
or policies of insurance pursuant to this Section shall not limit any obligation
or liability of Lessee pursuant to Sections 8 or 10 or any other provision of
this Lease and any Schedule hereto. Lessee shall, to the extent reasonably
possible, obtain liability insurance required hereunder on an occurrence basis
rather than a claims made basis. To the extent that the Lessee must obtain some
or all of this coverage on a claims made basis, Lessee shall provide Lessor with
satisfactory evidence that the retroactive date of the claims made policy is
prior to the Commencement Date or the date of Delivery and Acceptance by Lessee,
whichever is earlier; that the then remaining aggregate amount of Lessee's
coverage is and will be sufficient to meet the minimum amount of coverage
required hereunder, and that the policy will either remain in force, be renewed,
or a satisfactory discovery period will be purchased to cover any claims which
might arise hereunder in the future. Lessee's obligation to keep the Equipment
insured as provided herein shall continue until the Equipment is returned to
Lessor pursuant to Section 4 hereof.
10. Risk of Loss. Until such time as the Equipment is returned and delivered to
and accepted by Lessor, pursuant to the terms of this Lease and any Schedule
hereto, Lessee hereby assumes and shall bear the entire risk of any Equipment
Loss. Without limitation of the foregoing, no Equipment Loss shall relieve
Lessee in any way from its obligations hereunder. Lessee shall promptly notify
Lessor in writing of any Equipment Loss. In the event of any such Equipment
Loss, Lessee shall: (a) in the event Lessor determines such Equipment to be
repairable, promptly place, at Lessee's expense, the Equipment in good repair,
condition and working order in accordance with Supplier's specifications and to
the satisfaction of Lessor; or (b) in the event of an actual or constructive
total loss of any item of Equipment, at Lessor's option: (i) promptly replace,
at Lessee's expense, the Equipment with like equipment of the same or a later
model with the same Additions as the Equipment, and in good repair, condition
and working order in accordance with the Supplier's specifications and to the
satisfaction of Lessor; or (ii) immediately pay to Lessor the amount obtained by
multiplying the Equipment Cost as specified in the applicable Schedule by the
percentage contained in any casualty schedule for the date of such Equipment
Loss plus, any unpaid rentals or any amounts due hereunder or, if no casualty
schedule has been made a part of any applicable Schedule, an amount equal to the
present value of the total amount of unpaid rentals and all other amounts due
and to become due under any applicable Schedule during the term thereof as of
the date of any payment plus an additional amount equal to the present value of
the estimated residual value of the Equipment at the expiration of the Lease,
all discounted at a rate equal to the Discount Rate in effect as of the
Commencement Date of the Lease with respect to each applicable Schedule, but in
no event shall the amount of such Fair Market Value be less than twenty percent
(20%) of the Equipment Cost as specified in the applicable Schedule. In the
event Lessee is required to repair or replace any such item of Equipment
pursuant to Subsections (a) or (b)(i) of the preceding sentence, the insurance
proceeds received by Lessor and its assignees, if any, pursuant to Section 9,
after the use of such funds to pay any unpaid amounts then due hereunder, shall
be paid to Lessee or, if applicable, to a third party repairing or replacing the
Equipment upon Lessee's furnishing proof satisfactory to Lessor and its assignee
that such repair or replacement has been completed in a satisfactory manner. In
the event Lessor elects the option set forth in Subsection (b)(u), Lessee shall
be entitled to a credit against the payment required by said Subsection in an
amount equal to such insurance proceeds actually received by Lessor and its
assignee pursuant to Section 9 on account of such Equipment, and, upon payment
by Lessee to Lessor of all of the sums required pursuant to Subsection (b)(ii),
the applicable Schedule shall terminate with respect to such item of Equipment
and Lessee shall be entitled to whatever interest Lessor may have in such item
"as is, where is" and "with all faults" in its then condition and location
without warranties of any type whatsoever, express or implied.
11. Covenants of Lessee. Lessee agrees that its obligations under this Lease and
any Schedule hereto, including without limitation, the obligation to pay rental,
are irrevocable and absolute, shall not xxxxx for any reason whatsoever
(including any claims against Lessor), and shall continue in full force and
effect regardless of any inability of Lessee to use the Equipment or any part
thereof for any reason whatsoever including without limitation, war, act of God,
storms, governmental regulations, strike or other labor troubles, loss, damage,
destruction, disrepair, obsolescence, failure of or delay in delivery of the
Equipment, or failure of the Equipment to properly operate for any cause. In the
event of any alleged claim (including a claim which would otherwise be in the
nature of a set-off) against Lessor, Lessee shall fully perform and pay its
obligations hereunder (including all rents, without set-off or defense of any
kind) and its only exclusive recourse against Lessor shall be by a separate
action. Lessee, if requested, shall provide at Lessee's expense opinions of its
counsel acceptable to Lessor affirming the covenants, representations and
warranties of Lessee under this Lease and any Schedule hereto and any other
documents related hereto or incorporated herein. Lessee shall provide Lessor
with not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of any material change
in Lessee's financial structure or ownership (e.g., merger, consolidation, sale,
lease or other disposition of assets not in the ordinary course).

Lessee, cancel all or any portion of this Lease and some or all Schedules
executed pursuant thereto; (b) enter Lessee's Premises and without removal of

without any duty to account for such action or inaction or for any proceeds or
profits with respect thereto; (c) declare immediately due and payable all sums
due and to become due hereunder for the full term of the Lease (including any

the sum of: (i) all unpaid rent and other amounts that became due and payable
on, or prior to, the Default Date; (ii) the present value of al1 future rentals
and other amounts described in the Lease and not included in (i) above
discounted to the Default Date at a rate equal to the Discount Rate as of the
Commencement Date of the Lease with respect to each Schedule (which Discount
Rate, Lessee agrees is a commercially reasonable rate which takes into account
the facts and circumstances at the time such Schedule commenced); (iii) all
commercially reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in enforcing
Lessor's rights under this Lease, including but not limited to, costs of

the applicable Schedule; (v) any indemnity amount payable to Lessor; and (vi)
interest on all of the foregoing from the Default Date until the date payment is

exercise any other right or remedy which may be available to it under the
Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable law. Lessor reserves the right,
in its sole and absolute discretion, to release or sell any or all of the
Equipment at a public auction or in a private sale, at such time, on such terms
and with such notice as Lessor shall in its sole and absolute discretion deem
reasonable. In such event, without any duty on Lessor's part to effect any such
re-lease or sale of the Equipment, Lessor will credit the present value of any
proceeds from such sale or re-lease actually received and retainable by it (net
of any and all costs or expenses) discounted from the date of Lessor's receipt
thereof to the Default Date at 2-1/2% in excess of the Prime Rate in effect on

Lessor and only as to such items of Equipment as Lessor specifically elects to
cancel and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as to the
remaining items of Equipment, if any. If this Lease and/or any Schedule is
deemed at any time to be one intended as security, Lessee agrees that the
Equipment shall secure, in addition to the indebtedness set forth herein, any
other indebtedness at any time owing by Lessee to Lessor. No remedy referred to
in this Section is intended to be exclusive, but shall be cumulative and in
addition to any other remedy referred to above or otherwise available to Lessor
at law or in equity. No express or implied waiver by Lessor of any default shall
constitute a waiver of any other default by Lessee or a waiver of any of
Lessor's rights.
15. Assignment by Lessor. LESSOR MAY (WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE TO LESSEE) SELL,
TRANSFER, ASSIGN OR GRANT A SECURITY INTEREST IN ALL OR ANY PART OF ITS INTEREST
IN THIS LEASE, ANY SCHEDULE, ANY ITEMS OF EQUIPMENT OR ANY AMOUNT PAYABLE
HEREUNDER. In such an event, Lessee shall, upon receipt of notice, acknowledge
any such sale, transfer, assignment or grant of a security interest and shall
pay its obligations hereunder or amounts equal thereto to the respective
transferee, assignee or secured party in the manner specified in any
instructions received from Lessor. Notwithstanding any such sale, transfer,
assignment or grant of a security interest by Lessor and so long as no event of
default shall have occurred hereunder,
-8-
neither Lessor nor any transferee, assignee or secured party shall interfere
with Lessee's right of use or quiet enjoyment of the Equipment. In the event of
such sale, transfer, assignment or grant of security interest in all or any part
of this Lease and any Schedule hereto, or in the Equipment or in sums payable
hereunder, as aforesaid, Lessee agrees to execute such documents as may be
reasonably necessary to evidence, secure and complete such sale, transfer,
assignment or grant of a security interest and to perfect the transferee's,
assignee's or secured Party's interest therein and Lessee further agrees that
the rights of any transferee, assignee or secured party shall not be subject to
any defense, set-off or counterclaim that Lessee may have against Lessor or any
other party, including the Supplier, which defenses, set-offs and counterclaims
shall be asserted only against such party, and that any such transferee,
assignee or secured party shall have all of Lessor's rights hereunder, but shall
assume none of Lessor's obligations hereunder. Lessee acknowledges that any
assignment or transfer by Lessor shall not materially change Lessee' duties or
obligations under this Lease nor materially increase the burdens and risks
imposed on Lessee. Lessee agrees that Lessor may assign or transfer this Lease
or Lessor's interest in the Equipment even if said assignment or transfer could
be deemed to materially affect the interests of Lessee. Nothing in the preceding
sentence shall affect or impair the provisions of Section 4, Section 10 or any
other provision of this Lease.
16. Amendments. This Lease and any Schedules hereto contain the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the Equipment, this Lease and any Schedules
hereto and there is no agreement or understanding, oral or written, which is not
set forth herein. This Lease and any Schedules hereto may not be altered,
modified, terminated or discharged except by a writing signed by the party

Equipment beyond the Initial Lease Term, or, if applicable, any exercised
extension or renewal term, the lease obligations of Lessee shall continue and
such permissive use shall not be construed as a renewal of the term thereof, or

and Lessor may take possession of any such Equipment at any time upon demand. If
more than one Lessee is named in this Lease, the liability of each shall be
joint and several. Lessee shall, upon request of Lessor from time to time,

corporation or other entity shall guarantee this Lease and the performance by
Lessee of its obligations hereunder, all of the terms and provisions hereof
shall be duly applicable to such Obligor.
