THERETO OR ANY COMPONENT THERETO, THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS
(WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE), AND LESSOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS THE SAME; IT BEING
UNDERSTOOD THAT THE EQUIPMENT IS LEASED TO LESSEE "AS IS" AND ALL SUCH RISKS, IF

the Equipment Location and shall not be removed therefrom without Lessor's prior
written consent. Lessor shall have the right to enter upon the Equipment
Location and inspect the Equipment at any reasonable time. Lessor may, without
notice to Lessee, remove the Equipment if the Equipment is, in the opinion of
Lessor, being used beyond its capacity or is in any manner improperly cared for,
abused or misused. At Lessor's request, Lessee shall affix labels stating that
the Equipment is owned by Lessor permanently in a prominent place on the
Equipment and shall keep such labels in good repair and condition.
11. Use; Alterations. Lessee shall use the Equipment lawfully and only
in the manner for which it was designed and intended and so as to subject it
only to ordinary wear and tear. Lessee shall comply with all Applicable Law.
Lessee shall immediately notify Lessor in writing of any existing, pending or
threatened investigation, inquiry, claim or action by any Governmental Authority
in connection with any Applicable Law or Governmental Action which could
adversely affect the Equipment or this Lease. Lessee, at its own expense, shall
make such alterations, additions or modifications or improvements to the
Equipment as may be required from time to time to meet the requirements of
Applicable Law or Governmental Action. Except as otherwise permitted herein,
Lessee shall not make any alterations, additions, modifications or improvements
to the Equipment without Lessor's prior written consent.
12. Repairs and Maintenance. Lessee, at Lessee's own cost and expense,
shall (a) keep the Equipment in good repair, good operating condition and
working order and in compliance with the manufacturer's specifications, and (b)
enter into and keep in full force and effect during the Term hereof a
maintenance agreement with the manufacturer of the Equipment, or a
manufacturer-approved maintenance organization, to maintain, service and repair
the Equipment so as to keep the Equipment in as good operating condition and
working order as it was when it first became subject to this Lease and in
compliance with the manufacturer's specifications. Upon Lessor's request, Lessee
shall furnish Lessor with an executed copy of any such maintenance agreement. An
alternate source of maintenance may be used by Lessee with Lessor's prior
written consent. Lessee, at its own cost and expense and within a reasonable
period of time, shall replace any part of any Item of Equipment that becomes
worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, or otherwise rendered permanently unfit or
unavailable for use (whether or not such replacement is covered by the aforesaid
maintenance agreement), with a replacement part of the same manufacture, value,
remaining useful life and utility as the replaced part immediately preceding the
replacement (assuming that such replaced part is in the condition required by
this Lease). Such replacement part shall be free and clear of all Liens.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph shall not apply to any Loss or
Damage (as defined in Section 16 hereof) of any Item of Equipment.
13. Return of Equipment. Upon the expiration (subject to Section 32
hereof and except as otherwise provided in an Equipment Schedule) or earlier
termination of this Lease, Lessee, at its sole expense, shall return the
Equipment to Lessor by delivering such Equipment F.A.S. or F.O.B. to such
location or such carrier (packed for shipping) as Lessor shall specify. Lessee
agrees that the Equipment, when returned, shall be in the condition required by
Section 12 hereof. All components of the Equipment shall have been properly
serviced, following the manufacturer's written operating and servicing
procedures, such that the Equipment is eligible for a manufacturer's standard,
full service maintenance contract without Lessor's incurring any expense to
repair or rehabilitate the Equipment. If, in the opinion of Lessor, any Item of
Equipment fails to meet the standards set forth above, Lessee agrees to pay on
demand all costs and expenses incurred in connection with repairing such Item of
5
Equipment and restoring it so as to meet such standards, assembling and
delivering such Item of Equipment. If Lessee fails to return any Item of
Equipment as required hereunder, then, all of Lessee's obligations under this
Lease (including, without limitation, Lessee's obligation to pay Rent for such
Item of Equipment at the rental then applicable under this Lease) shall continue
in full force and effect until such Item of Equipment shall have been returned
in the condition required hereunder.
14. Equipment Upgrades/Attachments. In addition to the requirements of
Section 11 hereof, Lessee, at its own expense, may from time to time add or
install upgrades or attachments to the Equipment during the Term; provided, that
such upgrades or attachments (a) are readily removable without causing material
damage to the Equipment, (b) do not materially adversely affect the Fair Market
Sale Value, the Fair Market Rental Value, residual value, productive capacity,
utility or remaining useful life of the Equipment, and (c) do not cause such
Equipment to become "limited use property" within the meaning of Revenue
Procedure 76-30, 1976-2 C.B. 647 (or such other successor tax provision), as of
the applicable delivery date or the time of such upgrade or attachment. Any such
upgrades or attachments which are not required by Section 11 hereof and which
can be removed without causing damage to or adversely affecting the condition of
the Equipment, or reducing the Fair Market Sale Value, the Fair Market Rental
Value, residual value, productive capacity, utility or remaining useful life of
the Equipment shall remain the property of Lessee; and upon the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease and provided that no Event of Default exists,
Lessee may, at its option, remove any such upgrades or attachments and, upon
such removal, shall restore the Equipment to the condition required hereunder.
15. Sublease and assignment. (a) without lessor's prior written
consent, lessee shall not (i) assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise
dispose of this lease, the equipment or any interest therein, or (ii) sublet or
lend the equipment to, or permit the equipment to be used by, anyone other than
lessee or lessee's qualified employees.
(b) lessor, at any time with or without notice to lessee, may sell,
transfer, assign and/or grant a security interest in this lease, any equipment
schedule or any item of equipment. In any such event, any such purchaser,
transferee, aSsignee or secured party shall have and may exercise all of
lessor's rights hereunder with respect to the items to which any such sale,
transfer, assignment and/or security interest relates, and lessee shall not
assert against any such purchaser, transferee, assignee or secured party any
defense, counterclaim or offset that lessee may have against lessor. Lessee
acknowledges that no such sale, transfer, assignment and/or security interest
will materially change Lessee's duties hereunder or materially increase its
burdens or risks hereunder. Lessee agrees that upon written notice to Lessee of
any such sale, transfer, assignment and/or security interest, Lessee shall
acknowledge receipt thereof in writing and shall comply with the directions and
demands of Lessor's successor or assign.
16. Loss of or Damage to Equipment. (a) Lessee shall bear the entire
risk of loss, theft, destruction, disappearance of or damage to any and all
Items of Equipment ("Loss or Damage") from any cause whatsoever during the Term
hereof until the Equipment is returned to Lessor in accordance with Section 13
hereof. No Loss or Damage shall relieve Lessee of the obligation to pay Rent or
of any other obligation under this Lease.
(b) In the event of Loss or Damage to any Item of Equipment,
Lessee, at the option of Lessor, shall within thirty (30) days following such
Loss or Damage: (1) place such Item of Equipment in good condition and repair,
in accordance with the terms hereof; (2) replace such Item of Equipment with
replacement equipment (acceptable to Lessor) in as good condition and repair,
and with the same value, remaining useful economic life and utility, as such
replaced Item of Equipment immediately preceding the Loss or Damage (assuming
that such replaced Item of Equipment is the condition required by this Lease),
which replacement equipment shall be free and clear of all Liens; or (3) pay to
Lessor the sum of (i) all Rent due and owing hereunder with respect to such Item
of Equipment (at the time of such payment) plus (ii) the Stipulated Loss Value
as of the Rent Payment Date next following the date of such Loss or Damage with
respect to such Item of Equipment, as set forth on the Schedule applicable
thereto. Upon Lessor's receipt of the payment required under subsection (3)
above, Lessee shall be entitled to Lessor's interest in such Item of Equipment,
in its then condition and location, "as is" and "where is", without any
warranties, express or implied. If Lessee replaces the Item of Equipment
pursuant to subsection (b) above, title to such replacement equipment shall
immediately (and without further act) vest in Lessor and thereupon shall be
deemed to constitute Items of Equipment and be fully subject to this Lease as if
6
originally leased hereunder. If Lessee fails to either restore or replace the
Item of Equipment pursuant to subsection (1) or (2) above, respectively, Lessee
shall make the payment under subsection (3) above.
17. Insurance. (a) Lessee, at all times during the Term hereof (until
the Equipment shall have been returned to Lessor) and at Lessee's own cost and
expense, shall maintain (1) insurance against all risks of physical loss or
damage to the Equipment (including theft and collision for Equipment consisting
of motor vehicles) in an amount not less than the full replacement value thereof
or the Stipulated Loss Value thereof, whichever is greater, and (2) commercial
general liability insurance (including blanket contractual liability coverage
and products liability coverage) for personal and bodily injury and property
damage in an amount satisfactory to Lessor.
(b) All insurance policies required hereunder shall (1) require 30
days' prior written notice of cancellation or material change in coverage to
Lessor (any such cancellation or change, as applicable, not being effective
until the thirtieth (30th) day after the giving of such notice); (2) name
"KeyCorp and its subsidiaries and affiliated companies, including Key Corporate
Capital Inc." as an additional insured under the public liability policies and
name Lessor as sole loss payee under the property insurance policies; (3) not
require contributions from other policies held by Lessor; (4) waive any right of
subrogation against Lessor; (5) in respect of any liability of any of Lessor,
except for the insurers' salvage rights in the event of a Loss or Damage, waive
the right of such insurers to set-off, to counterclaim or to any other
deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, to the extent of any monies due
Lessor under such policies; (6) not require that Lessor pay or be liable for any
premiums with respect to such insurance covered thereby; (7) be in full force
and effect throughout any geographical areas at any time traversed by any Item
of Equipment; and (8) contain breach of warranty provisions providing that, in
respect of the interests of Lessor in such policies, the insurance shall not be
invalidated by any action or inaction of Lessee or any other person (other than
Lessor) and shall insure Lessor regardless of any breach or violation of any
warranty, declaration or condition contained in such policies by Lessee or by
any other person (other than Lessor). Prior to the first date of delivery of any
Item of Equipment hereunder, and thereafter not less than 15 days prior to the
expiration dates of the expiring policies theretofore delivered pursuant to this
Section, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor a duplicate original of all policies (or
in the case of blanket policies, certificates thereof issued by the insurers
thereunder) for the insurance maintained pursuant to this Section.

indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from and against (on an after-tax basis) any
and all taxes, fees, withholdings, levies, imposts, duties, assessments and
charges of any kind and nature (together with interest and penalties
thereon)(including, without limitation, sales, use, gross receipts, personal
property, ad valorem, business and occupational, franchise, value added,
leasing, leasing use, documentary, stamp or other taxes) imposed upon or against
Lessor, Lessor's assigns, Lessee or any Item of Equipment by any Governmental

registration, leasing, subleasing, possession, use, operation, removal, return
or other dispossession thereof or upon the rents, receipts or earnings arising
therefrom or upon or with respect to this Lease, excepting only all Federal,
state and local taxes on or measured by Lessor's net income (other than income
tax resulting from making any alterations, improvements, modifications,
additions, upgrades, attachments, replacements or substitutions by Lessee).
Whenever this Lease terminates as to any Item of Equipment, Lessee shall, upon
written request by Lessor, advance to Lessor the amount determined by Lessor to
be the personal property or other taxes on said item which are not yet payable,
but for which Lessee is responsible, provided Lessor provides Lessee with copies
of tax bills supporting Lessor's request.
19. Lessor's Right to Perform for Lessee. If Lessee fails to perform or
comply with any of its obligations contained herein, Lessor may (but shall not
be obligated to do so) itself perform or comply with such obligations, and the
amount of the reasonable costs and expenses of Lessor incurred in connection
with such performance or compliance, together with interest on such amount at
the Late Payment Rate, shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor upon demand. No such
performance or compliance by Lessor shall be deemed a waiver of the rights and
remedies of Lessor or any assignee of Lessor against Lessee hereunder or be
deemed to cure the default of Lessee hereunder.
20. Delinquent Payments; Interest. If Lessee fails to pay any Rent or
other sums under this Lease when the same becomes due, Lessee shall pay to
Lessor a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such delinquent amount. Such
7
late charge shall be payable by Lessee upon demand by Lessor and shall be deemed
Rent hereunder. In no event shall such late charge exceed the maximum amounts
permitted under Applicable Law.
21. Personal Property; Liens. Lessor and Lessee hereby agree that the
Equipment is, and shall at all times remain, personal property notwithstanding
the fact that any Item of Equipment may now be, or hereafter become, in any
manner affixed or attached to real property or any improvements thereon. Lessee
shall at all times keep the Equipment free and clear from all Liens. Lessee
shall (i) give Lessor immediate written notice of any such Lien, (ii) promptly,
at Lessee's sole cost and expense, take such action as may be necessary to
discharge any such Lien, and (iii) indemnify and hold Lessor, on an after-tax
basis, harmless from and against any loss or damage caused by any such Lien.

is appointed with or without the application or consent of Lessee or such
Guarantor, respectively; (4) a petition is filed by or against Lessee or any
Guarantor under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar legislation; (5) Lessee or
