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 Authority with respect to any Item of Equipment or the
manufacturing, ordering, sale, purchase, shipment, delivery, acceptance or
rejection, ownership, titling, 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 within ten (10) days after the same becomes due,
Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such
delinquent amount. Such 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 Lessor 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.

       22. Events of Default; Remedies. (a) As used herein, the term "Event of
Default" shall mean any of the following events: (1) Lessee fails to pay any
Rent within ten (10) days after the same shall have become due; (2) Lessee or
any Guarantor becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of its
creditors; (3) a receiver, trustee, conservator or liquidator of Lessee or any
Guarantor or of all or a substantial part of Lessee's or such Guarantor's
assets 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 any Guarantor violates or fails to perform any provision of either
this Lease or any other loan, lease or credit agreement or any acquisition or
purchase agreement with Lessor or any other party; (6) Lessee violates or
fails to perform any covenant or representation made by Lessee herein: (7) any
representation or warranty made herein or in any Lease, certificate, financial
statement or other statement furnished to Lessor shall prove to be false or
misleading in any material respect as of the date on which the same was made;
(8) Lessee makes a bulk transfer of furniture, furnishings, fixtures or other
equipment or inventory (other than in the ordinary course of business); or (9)
there is a material adverse change in Lessee's or any Guarantor's financial
condition since the first Rent Commencement Date of any Equipment Schedule
executed in connection herewith. An Event of Default with respect to any
Equipment Schedule hereunder shall, at Lessor's option, constitute an Event of
Default for all Equipment Schedules hereunder and any other agreements between
Lessor and Lessee. Lessee shall have forty-five (45) days in which to cure an
Event of Default declared hereunder with the exception of the failure of
Lessee to pay any Rent within ten (ten) days after the same shall have become
due.
            (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lessor may do one
or more of the following as Lessor in its sole discretion shall elect: (1)
proceed by appropriate court action or actions, either at law or in equity, to
enforce performance by Lessee of the applicable covenants of this Lease or to
recover damages for the breach thereof; (2) sell any Item of Equipment at
public or private sale; (3) hold, keep idle or lease to others any Item of
Equipment as Lessor in its sole discretion may determine; (4) by notice in
writing to Lessee, terminate this Lease, without prejudice to any other
remedies hereunder; (5) demand that Lessee, and Lessee shall, upon written
demand of Lessor and at Lessee's expense forthwith return all Items of
Equipment to Lessor or its order in the manner and condition required by, and
otherwise in accordance with all of the provisions of this Lease, except those
provisions relating to periods of notice; (6) enter upon the premises of
Lessee or other premises where any Item of Equipment may be located and,
without notice to Lessee and with or without legal process, take possession of
and remove all or any such Items of Equipment without liability to Lessor by
reason of such entry or taking possession, and without such action
constituting a termination of this Lease unless Lessor notifies Lessee in
writing to such effect. Such action shall be exercised by Lessor in a
reasonable and prudent manner; (7) by written notice to Lessee specifying a
payment date, demand that Lessee pay to Lessor, and Lessee shall pay to
Lessor, on the payment date specified in such notice, as liquidated damages
for loss of a bargain and not as a penalty, any unpaid Rent due prior to the
payment date specified in such notice plus whichever of the following amounts
Lessor, in its sole discretion, shall specify in such notice (together with
interest on such amount at the Late Payment Rate from the payment date
specified in such notice to the date of actual payment): (i) an amount, with
respect to an Item of Equipment, equal to the Rent payable for such Item of
Equipment for the remainder of the then current Term thereof, after
discounting such Rent to present worth as of the payment date specified in
such notice on the basis of a per annum rate of discount equal to five percent
(5%) from the respective dates upon which such Rent would have been paid had
this Lease not been terminated; or (ii) the Stipulated Loss Value, computed as
of the payment date specified in such notice or, if such payment date is not a
Rent Payment Date, the Rent Payment Date next following the payment date
specified in such notice (provided, however, that, with respect to any Item of
Equipment returned to or repossessed by Lessor, the amount recoverable under
this clause (ii) shall be reduced (but not below zero) by an amount equal to
the Fair Market Sales Value (taking into account its actual condition) of such
Item of Equipment; (8) cause Lessee, at its expense, to promptly assemble any
and all Items of Equipment and return the same to Lessor at such place as
Lessor may designate in writing; and (9) exercise any other right or remedy
available to Lessor under applicable law or proceed by appropriate court
action to enforce the terms hereof or to recover damages for the breach hereof
or to rescind this Lease. In addition, Lessee shall be liable, except as
otherwise provided above, for any and all unpaid Rent due hereunder before or
during the exercise of any of the foregoing remedies, and for reasonable legal
fees and other costs and expenses incurred by reason of the occurrence of any
Event of Default or the exercise of Lessors remedies with respect thereto,
including without limitation the repayment in full of any costs and expenses
necessary to be expended in repairing any Item of Equipment in order to cause
it to be in compliance with all maintenance and regulatory standards imposed
by this Lease. If an Event of Default occurs, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, Lessee hereby waives any right to any


                                       7


<PAGE>
defenses, rights, offsets or claims against Lessor because of the manner or
method of sale or disposition of any Items of Equipment. None of Lessor's
rights or remedies hereunder are intended to be exclusive of, but each shall
be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy referred to
hereunder or otherwise available to Lessor or its assigns at law or in equity.
No express or implied waiver by Lessor of any Event of Default shall
constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default or a waiver of any of
Lessor's rights. Lessor agrees to give Lessee reasonable notice of any sale or
other disposition of the Equipment after the occurrence of an Event of
Default. Lessee agrees that the requirement of reasonable notice shall be met
if such notice is personally served on or mailed, postage prepaid, to Lessee
in accordance with the notice provisions hereof at least 10 days before the
time of sale or other disposition. Lessor shall not be obligated to make any
sale or other disposition of the Equipment regardless of notice having been
given.

       23. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be transmitted by hand, overnight courier or certified mail
(return receipt requested), postage prepaid. Such notices and other
communications shall be addressed to the respective party at the address set
forth above or at such other address as any party may from time to time
designate by notice duly given in accordance with this Section. Such notices
and other communications shall be effective upon receipt.

       24. General Indemnification. Lessee shall pay, and shall indemnify and
hold Lessor harmless on an after-tax basis from and against, any and all
liabilities, causes of action, claims, suits, penalties, damages, losses,
costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees), obligations, liabilities,
demands and judgments, and Liens, of any nature whatsoever (collectively, a
"Liability") arising out of or in any way related to: (a) this Lease or any
other written agreement entered into in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, a Purchase
Agreement, if any) or any amendment, waiver or modification of any of the
foregoing or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or any of the
foregoing, (b) the manufacture, purchase, ownership, selection, acceptance,
rejection, possession, lease, sublease, operation, use, maintenance,
documenting, inspection, control, loss, damage, destruction, removal, storage,
surrender, sale, use, condition, delivery, nondelivery, return or other
disposition of or any other matter relating to any Item of Equipment or any
part or portion thereof (including, in each case and without limitation,
latent or other defects, whether or not discoverable, any claim for patent,
trademark or copyright infringement and any and all Liabilities in any way
relating to or arising out of injury to persons, properties or the environment
or any and all Liabilities based on strict liability in tort, negligence,
breach of warranties or violations of any regulatory law or requirement, (c) a
failure to comply fully with any Environmental Law with respect to the
Equipment or its operation or use, and (d) Lessee's failure to perform any
covenant, or breach of any representation or warranty, hereunder; provided,
that the foregoing indemnity shall not extend to the Liabilities to the extent
resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor.
Lessee shall deliver promptly to Lessor (i) copies of any documents received
from the United States Environmental Protection Agency or any state, county or
municipal environmental or health agency and (ii) copies of any documents
submitted by Lessee or any of its subsidiaries to the United States
Environmental Protection Agency or any state, county or municipal
environmental or health agency concerning the Equipment or its operation.

       25. Severability; Captions. Any provision of this Lease or any
Equipment Schedule which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions
hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Captions are
intended for convenience or reference only, and shall not be construed to
define, limit or describe the scope or intent of any provisions hereof.

       26. Lessor's Expense. Lessee shall pay all costs and expenses of
Lessor, including reasonable attorneys' fees and the fees of any collection
agencies, incurred by Lessor in enforcing any of the terms, conditions or
provisions hereof or in protecting Lessor's rights hereunder.

       27. Related Equipment Schedules. In the event that any Item of
Equipment covered under any Equipment Schedule hereunder may become attached
or affixed to, or used in connection with, Equipment covered under another
Equipment Schedule hereunder (a "Related Equipment Schedule"), Lessee agrees
that, if Lessee elects to exercise a purchase or renewal option under any such
Equipment Schedule, or if Lessee elects to return the Equipment under any such
Equipment Schedule pursuant to Section 13 hereof, then Lessor, in its sole
discretion, may require that all Equipment leased under all Related Equipment
Schedules be similarly disposed of.

       28. Financial and Other Data. During the Term hereof, Lessee shall
furnish Lessor, as soon as available and in any event within 60 days after the
end of each quarterly period (except the last) of each fiscal year, and, as
soon as available and in any event within 120 days after the last day of each
fiscal year, financial statements of Lessee and each Guarantor, in each case

requested. Lessee shall also furnish such other financial reports, information
or data as Lessor may reasonably request from time to time.

        29. Reserved.

interest in the Supplier.

        31. Representations and Warranties of Lessee. Lessee represents and

the ability of Lessee to perform its obligations hereunder; (e) Lessee is not

conditions or operations; (h) the address stated above is the chief place of

        32. Renewal And Purchase Options. With respect to an Equipment
Schedule and the Equipment Group set forth thereon, so long as no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, then, upon not less
than ninety (90) days prior written notice to Lessor, (the "Renewal Notice")
Lessee may (a) at the expiration of the Initial Term, or any Renewal Term,
purchase all, but not less than all, of the Equipment Group for the Fair
Market Sale Value of such Equipment Group, payable in cash to Lessor upon the
expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as the case may be, (b) at
the expiration of the Initial Term, renew this Lease on a month to month basis
at the same Rent payable at the expiration of the Initial Term, or (c) at the
expiration of the Initial Term, renew this Lease for a minimum period of not

or otherwise, (1) which may limit or modify Lessor's rights or remedies
hereunder, (2) to terminate, cancel, quit, repudiate or surrender this Lease,
except as expressly provided herein; (3) to reject, revoke acceptance or
accept partial delivery of the Equipment; (4) to recover damages from Lessor

such waiver shall preclude Lessee from asserting any such claim against Lessor
in a separate cause of action; or (5) to setoff or deduct all or any part of
any claimed damages resulting from Lessor's default, if any, under this Lease.

       34. UCC Filings. LESSEE HEREBY APPOINTS LESSOR OR ITS ASSIGNEE AS ITS
TRUE AND LAWFUL ATTORNEY IN FACT, IRREVOCABLY AND COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST, TO
EXECUTE AND FILE ON BEHALF OF LESSEE ALL UCC FINANCING STATEMENTS WHICH IN
LESSOR'S SOLE DISCRETION ARE
                                       9
<PAGE>

NECESSARY OR PROPER TO SECURE LESSOR'S INTEREST IN THE EQUIPMENT IN ALL
APPLICABLE JURISDICTIONS; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, LESSOR SHALL NOT EXERCISE SUCH
POWER-OF-ATTORNEY UNLESS EITHER (A) LESSEE HAS FAILED OR REFUSED TO SO
EXECUTE, ENDORSE OR DELIVER, AS THE CASE MAY BE, ANY DOCUMENT, INSTRUMENT OR
AGREEMENT SO REQUESTED BY LESSOR WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER LESSOR'S
WRITTEN REQUEST FOR THE SAME OR (B) AN EVENT OF DEFAULT HAS OCCURRED AND IS
CONTINUING.

        35. Miscellaneous. Time is of the essence with respect to this Lease.
Any failure of Lessor to require strict performance by Lessee or any waiver by
Lessor of any provision herein shall not be construed as a consent or waiver
of any provision of this Lease. Neither this Lease nor any Equipment Schedule
may be amended except by a writing signed by Lessor and Lessee. This Lease and
each Equipment Schedule shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of,
the parties hereto, their permitted successors and assigns. This Lease will be

which by Lessee is contemplated hereunder), shall be executed on Lessee's
behalf by Authorized Signers of Lessee. THIS LEASE IS BEING DELIVERED IN THE
STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH.
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION,
VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE.

        36. Jury Trial Waiver. LESSOR AND LESSEE HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO WHICH LESSOR OR LESSEE MAY BE PARTIES ARISING OUT
OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO THIS LEASE. THIS WAIVER IS MADE KNOWINGLY,
WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY THE LESSOR AND THE LESSEE WHO EACH ACKNOWLEDGE
THAT NO REPRESENTATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY INDIVIDUAL TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER
OF TRIAL BY JURY OR IN ANY WAY TO MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT.

        37. More than One Lessee. If more than one person or entity executes
this Lease, each Equipment Schedule, and all addenda or other documents
executed in connection herewith or therewith, as "Lessee," the obligations of
"Lessee" contained herein and therein shall be deemed joint and several and
all references to "Lessee" shall apply both individually and jointly.

       38. Quiet Enjoyment. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Lessee shall peaceably hold and quietly enjoy the Equipment
without interruption by Lessor or any person or entity claiming through
Lessor.

        39. Entire Agreement. This Lease, together with all Equipment
Schedules, riders and addenda executed by Lessor and Lessee collectively
constitute the entire understanding or agreement between Lessor and Lessee

(collectively, the "Lessee").

                           I N T R O D U C T I O N :

         Lessor and Lessee have heretofore entered into that certain Master
Equipment Lease Agreement dated as of May 24, 1996 (the "Master Lease"; the
Master Lease and this Schedule hereinafter collectively referred to as, this
"Lease"). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall
have the meanings specified in the Master Lease. The Master Lease provides for
the execution and delivery of a Schedule substantially in the form hereof for
the purpose of confirming the acceptance and lease of the Equipment under this
Lease as and when delivered by Lessor to Lessee in accordance with the terms
thereof and hereof.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and
sufficient consideration, Lessor and Lessee hereby agree as follows:

         1. EQUIPMENT. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Lease,
Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the
equipment listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (the "Equipment"). The aggregate
Total Cost of such Equipment is $5,000,000.00.

         2. TERM. The Initial Term of this Lease with respect to the Equipment
described on this Schedule shall commence on the date on which such Equipment
is delivered to Lessee, and, unless earlier terminated as provided herein,
shall expire on the date which is seventy-two (72) months after the Rent
Commencement Date (the "Initial Term Expiration Date').

         3. RENT PAYMENT DATES; RENT. (a) The Rent set forth in Section
3(b)(2) hereof shall be adjusted (pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof) with each
change in the Actual Index (as hereinafter defined).

            (b) Lessee hereby agrees to pay Rent for the Equipment as follows:

            (1) On the Rent Commencement Date, an amount equal to $2,079.45 as
                interim rent for the period from the Rent Commencement Date to
                but excluding the first day of the month following the Rent
                Commencement Date, which interim rent was calculated by Lessor
                using the Assumed Rate (as hereinafter defined) and is
                expressly not subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 3(c)
                hereof.

            (2) Throughout the Initial Term in seventy-two (72) consecutive
                monthly installments payable in arrears commencing on July 1,
                1996 and on the same day each month thereafter (each, a "Rent
                Payment Date"). Each such installment of Rent shall be in an
                amount equal to $86,657.72.

            (c) Lessee and Lessor agree that each Rent payment hereunder shall
       be increased or decreased (but not below zero), as the case may be, by
       the Rent Differential (as hereinafter defined) as follows: if, as of
       any Rent Payment Date, (i) the Rent Differential is greater than zero,

           made available by the Federal Reserve Board, and (ii) 240 basis
           points. If the Fixed Index is no longer available, Lessor will

           such Rent Payment Date.

            (e) If (1) on or prior to execution of this Schedule, Lessee shall
       have paid to Lessor a conversion option fee equal to $17,500.00, (2)
       Lessee shall have provided Lessor with such documentation as Lessor may

       prior written notice, Lessee shall have the option (the "Conversion
       Option") to convert the then current Actual Index to a fixed index,
       determined pursuant to Section 3(f) hereof. The date of such conversion
       (the "Conversion Date") shall be the Rent Payment Date on which the
       next payment of Rent is due and payable under the Lease (after giving
       effect to such notice requirement).

            (f) If Lessee exercises the Conversion Option, (1) on and after
       the Conversion Date, the Rent set forth in Section 3(b) hereof shall be
       adjusted pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof, provided that, for the
       purposes of such adjustment, the term "Actual Index" shall be replaced
       by the term "Current Fixed Index," (2) effective as of the Conversion
       Date, such adjusted Rent shall be the Rent for the remaining Initial
       Term of the Lease, and Lessee shall pay the amount of such adjusted
       Rent (based on such Current Fixed Index) for the remainder of such
       Initial Term, and (3) notwithstanding anything to the contrary
       contained herein, the adjustment set forth in Section 3(a) shall be of
       no further force and effect.

              All such alterations, additions, modifications or improvements
              immediately, and without further act, shall be deemed to
              constitute Items of Equipment and be fully subject to this Lease
              as if originally leased hereunder.

              (b) Section 12 of the Master Lease ("Repairs and Maintenance")
is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following substituted in its place:

              Lessee will keep and maintain, or cause to be kept and

              if such date is subsequent to the date of execution hereof),
              ordinary wear and tear resulting from proper use thereof alone
              excepted. In addition, if any parts or accessories forming part
              of the Equipment


                                       3


<PAGE>

              shall from time to time become worn out, lost, destroyed,
              damaged beyond repair or otherwise permanently rendered unfit
              for use, Lessee, at its own expense, will within a reasonable
              time replace such parts or accessories with replacement parts or
              accessories which and have a value and utility at least equal to
              the parts or accessories replaced. 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. Upon
              installation, attachment or incorporation in, on or into such
              Item of Equipment, such replacement part immediately, and
              without further act, shall be deemed to constitute an Item of
              Equipment and be fully subject to this Lease as if originally
              leased hereunder

              (c) Section 16(b) of the Master Lease ("Loss of or Damage to
Equipment") is hereby amended to delete subsection "(3)" and substitute the
following in its place:

              (3) pay to Lessor an amount, with respect to such Item of
              Equipment, equal to the Rent payable for such Item of Equipment
              for the remainder of the Term, after discounting such Rent to
              present worth on the basis of a per annum rate of discount equal
              to five percent (5%) from the respective dates upon which such
              Rent would have been paid had the Loss or Damage not occurred.
              In determining the Rent payable for an Item of Equipment for the
              purposes of this clause (3), Lessor and Lessee agree that such
              Rent shall be deemed equal to the product of (a) the total Rent
              payable under this Lease for the remainder of the Term, and (b)
              a fraction, the numerator of which is the value (as set forth in
              the appraisal prepared at lease closing) of such Item of
              Equipment and the denominator of which is the value (as set
              forth in the appraisal prepared at lease closing) of all Items
              of Equipment under this Lease.

              (d) Section 16(b) of the Master Lease ("Loss of or Damage to
Equipment") is hereby amended to delete the second to last sentence and
substitute the following in its place:

              If Lessee replaces the Item of Equipment pursuant to subsection
              (b) above, such replacement equipment shall immediately (and
              without further act) be deemed to constitute Items of Equipment
              and be fully subject to this Lease as if originally leased
              hereunder.

              (e) Section 17(a) of the Master Lease ("Insurance") is hereby
amended to delete subsection "(1)" and substitute the following in its place:

              (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.

              (f) As used in Section 22(a) of the Master Lease ("Events of
Default"), the term "Event of Default" shall also mean the following event:
the dissolution of Lessee.

              (g) Section 22(b) of the Master Lease ("Events of Default") is
hereby amended to delete subsection "(7)" and substitute the following in its
place:

              (7) by written notice to Lessee specifying a payment date, may
              demand that Lessee pay to Lessor, and Lessee shall pay to
              Lessor, on the payment date specified in such notice, as
              liquidated damages for loss of a bargain and not as a penalty,
              any unpaid Rent due prior to the payment date specified in such
              notice plus the following amount which Lessor shall specify in
              such notice (together with interest on such amount at the Late
              Payment Rate from the payment date specified in such notice to
              the date of actual payment): an amount, with respect to an Item
              of Equipment, equal to the Rent payable for such Item of
              Equipment for the remainder of the then current Term thereof,
              after discounting such Rent to present worth as of the payment
              date specified in such notice on the basis of a per annum rate
              of discount equal to five percent (5%) from the respective dates
              upon which such Rent would have been paid had this Lease not
              been canceled or terminated.
