                           SENIOR MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

      THIS SENIOR MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of March 6,
2003, by and among Coinmach Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
Coinmach Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Holdings"), and
Mitchell Blatt ("Executive").

      WHEREAS, the Company and Executive are parties to a senior management
agreement dated as of January 31, 1995 (as amended from time to time, the
"Existing Employment Agreement");

      WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to terminate the Existing
Employment Agreement and enter into this Agreement;

      WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, each of
Robert M. Doyle and Stephen R. Kerrigan is entering into a senior management
agreement;

      WHEREAS, Coinmach Corporation is wholly owned by Coinmach Laundry
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Coinmach Laundry");

      WHEREAS, Coinmach Laundry is wholly owned by Holdings;

      WHEREAS, Executive is the owner of (i) 7,376,400 Common Units of Holdings,
of which 3,117,859 Common Units (the "Carried Common Units") were issued to
Executive in exchange for 3,117,859 shares of common stock of Coinmach Laundry
(previously issued to Executive pursuant to the Equity Participation Agreement),
and 4,258,541 Common Units (the "Co-Invest Common Units") were issued to
Executive in exchange for 4,258,541 shares of common stock of Coinmach Laundry
(previously issued to Executive in connection with Coinmach Laundry's
going-private transaction in July of 2000), and (ii) 3,832.69 Class C Preferred
Units (the "Preferred Units").

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein
and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

                                    ARTICLE I
                     PROVISIONS RELATING TO EXECUTIVE UNITS

      1.1 Vesting of Carried Common Units. Carried Common Units which have
become vested, together with all of the Co-Invest Common Units, are referred to
herein as "Vested Common Units" and all other Carried Common Units are referred
to herein as "Unvested Common Units." In addition to any vesting requirements in
respect of the Carried Common Units contained in the Management Contribution
Agreement, immediately prior to the closing of (i) any sale of Holdings' equity
securities which results in any person, or group of related

<PAGE>

persons, not affiliated with GTCR owning equity securities of Holdings
possessing the power to elect (without reference to any special or default
voting rights) a majority of the members of the Holdings Board (a "Change of
Control"), or (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of Holdings' assets, all
Unvested Common Units will become Vested Common Units.

      1.2 Put Option.

      (a) Upon the consummation of a Qualified Disposition, Executive shall have
the right to require that Holdings repurchase up to 50% of each class of
Executive Units, pursuant to the terms of this Section 1.2(a) (the "Qualified
Disposition Put Option"). The purchase price for each Common Unit pursuant to
the Qualified Disposition Put Option shall be the price per Unit paid to GTCR in
connection with the Qualified Disposition, and the purchase price for each
Preferred Unit pursuant to the Qualified Disposition Put Option shall be the
lesser of (i) the liquidation value of such Unit (plus all accrued and unpaid
dividends thereon) and (ii) the price per Unit of such class paid to GTCR in
connection with the Qualified Disposition. Within 30 days after the date of the
Qualified Disposition, Holdings shall notify Executive of the occurrence of such
event and Executive may elect to exercise the Qualified Disposition Put Option
by giving written notice to Holdings of such election, setting forth the number
of Common Units and/or Preferred Units to be repurchased by Holdings, within 15
days after the date of delivery of Holdings' notice to Executive. The closing of
the repurchase pursuant to the Qualified Disposition Put Option shall take place
on a date designated by Holdings, but in any event not later than 270 days after
the date of the Qualified Disposition. At such closing, Executive shall deliver
to Holdings the certificates representing the Common Units and/or Preferred
Units to be repurchased by Holdings, and, subject to Section 1.5 hereof,
Holdings shall deliver to Executive the purchase price for such Units by
cashier's or certified check or wire transfer.

      (b) Upon the termination of Executive's employment hereunder by (i) the
Coinmach Board without Cause or (ii) Executive for Good Reason, Executive shall
have the right to require that Holdings repurchase all Class C Preferred Units
held by Executive pursuant to the terms of this Section 1.2(b) (the "Termination
Put Option"); provided, however, that Holdings shall only be obligated to
repurchase Executive's Class C Preferred Units pursuant to the Termination Put
Option at such time as the Holdings' Board, in its good faith judgment,
determines that the Company has sufficient assets to repurchase Executive's
Class C Preferred Units without a material negative impact on the Company's
working capital or liquidity (taking into account any reasonably foreseeable
acquisitions or capital expenditures). The purchase price for each Class C
Preferred Unit pursuant to the Termination Put Option shall be the Fair Market
Value thereof on the Date of Termination. Within 30 days after the Date of
Termination as described in subsections (i) and (ii) above, Executive may elect
to exercise the Termination Put Option by giving written notice to Holdings of
such election, setting forth the number of Class C Preferred Units to be
repurchased by Holdings. The closing of the repurchase pursuant to the
Termination Put Option shall take place on a date designated by Holdings, but in
any event not later than 15 days after the date of receipt of Executive's
written notice of election to exercise the Termination Put Option. At such
closing, Executive shall deliver to Holdings the certificates representing the
Class C Preferred Units to be repurchased by Holdings, and, subject to Section
1.5 hereof, Holdings shall deliver to Executive the purchase price for such
Class C Preferred Units by cashier's or certified check or wire transfer.

      1.3 Repurchase Option.

      (a) In the event Executive violates Section 2.3(a) of this Agreement (a
"Noncompete Breach"), or in the event Executive's employment by the Company and
its Subsidiaries terminates for any reason (a "Termination"), the Executive
Units (whether held by Executive or one or more of Executive's transferees,
other than Holdings or GTCR) will be subject to repurchase by Holdings first,
the Other Senior Managers second and the Investors third pursuant to the terms
and conditions set forth in this Section 1.3 (the "Repurchase Option").

      (b) If the Repurchase Option becomes exercisable because of a Noncompete
Breach or a Termination resulting from the Company's termination of Executive's
employment for Cause, then, the purchase price for each Executive Unit will be
the lower of (i) Executive's Original Cost for such Unit and (ii) the Fair
Market Value of such Unit on the Date of Termination. If Executive's employment
terminates other than as described in the preceding sentence, the purchase price
for each (y) Executive Unit (other than an Unvested Common Unit) shall be the
Fair Market Value of such Unit and (z) Unvested Common Unit shall be Executive's
Original Cost for such Unit, in each instance as of the date of the related
Repurchase Notice or Investor Notice (as hereinafter defined), as the case may
be.

      (c) Holdings may, at the option of the Holdings Board, elect to purchase
all or any portion of the Executive Units from time to time by delivering
written notice (the "Repurchase Notice") to the Other Senior Managers, the
Investors and the holder or holders of such Executive Units from time to time
during the 180 days after the Noncompete Breach or Termination, as the case may
be. The Repurchase Notice will set forth the number of Executive Units,
including the number of Unvested Common Units and Vested Common Units, to be
acquired from the recipient holder, the aggregate consideration to be paid for
such Units and the time and place for the closing of the transaction.

      (d) If for any reason Holdings has not elected to purchase all of the
Executive Units pursuant to the Repurchase Option, the Other Senior Managers
shall be entitled to exercise the Repurchase Option for any or all of the
Executive Units, including the Unvested Common Units and the Vested Common
Units, Holdings has not elected to purchase (the "Available Units"), by giving
written notice to Holdings and the holder(s) of the Available Units to be
repurchased during the 30 days after the date of delivery to the Other Senior
Managers of the Repurchase Notice (the "Management Repurchase Notice") setting
forth the number of Available Units each Other Senior Manager is willing to
purchase. If the Other Senior Managers elect to purchase an aggregate number of
Units greater than the number of Available Units, the Available Units shall be
allocated among the Other Senior Managers pro rata based on the number of Common
Units owned by each Other Senior Manager on a Fully Diluted Basis. As soon as
practicable, and in any event within ten days after the expiration of the 30-day
period set forth above, Holdings shall notify the holder(s) of the Available
Units and the Investors as to the number of Units being purchased from such
holder(s) by the Other Senior Managers (the "Supplemental Management Repurchase
Notice"). At the time Holdings delivers the Supplemental Management Repurchase
Notice to the holder(s) of the Available Units, Holdings shall also deliver
written notice to each Other Senior Manager and the Investors setting forth the
number of Units such Other Senior Manager is entitled to purchase, the aggregate
purchase price and the time and place of the closing

                                       3
<PAGE>

of the transaction and, in the notice to the Investors, a statement of the
number, type and purchase price of Available Units available for purchase by the
Investors.

      (e) If for any reason the Other Senior Managers have elected not to
purchase any or all of the Available Units pursuant to Section 1.3(d) above, the
Investors may elect to purchase any or all of the Available Units not purchased
by the Other Senior Managers by giving written notice to Holdings and the
holder(s) of the Available Units to be repurchased within 30 days after the date
of delivery to the Investors of the Supplemental Management Repurchase Notice
(the "Investor Repurchase Notice") setting forth the number of Available Units
the Investors are willing to purchase. If the Investors elect to purchase an
aggregate number greater than the number of Available Units, the Available Units
shall be allocated among the Investors pro rata based upon the number of Common
Units owned by each Investor on a Fully Diluted Basis. As soon as practicable,
and in any event within ten days after the expiration of the 30-day period set
forth above, Holdings shall notify each holder of Available Units as to the
number of Units being purchased from such holder by the Investors (the
"Supplemental Investor Repurchase Notice"). At the time Holdings delivers the
Supplemental Investor Repurchase Notice to the holder(s) of Available Units,
Holdings shall also deliver written notice to each Investor setting forth the
number of Units such Investor is entitled to purchase, the aggregate purchase
price and the time and place of the closing of the transaction.

      (f) Each closing of the purchase of the Executive Units pursuant to the
Repurchase Option shall take place on the date designated by Holdings, the Other
Senior Managers or the Investors in the related Repurchase Notice, Management
Repurchase Notice, or Investor Repurchase Notice, as the case may be, but in any
event not later than 270 days after the date of the Noncompete Breach or
Termination. At such closing, Executive shall deliver to Holdings, the Other
Senior Managers and/or the Investors, certificates representing the Executive
Units to be repurchased by Holdings, the Other Senior Managers and/or the
Investors, and Holdings, the Other Senior Managers, and/or the Investors, as the
case may be, will pay for the Executive Units to be purchased pursuant to the
Repurchase Option, subject to Section 1.5 hereof and the terms below, on the
date of the closing of the Repurchase Option.

      (g) Any payment made pursuant to this Section 1.3 shall be payable, at the
option of Holdings, in cash, by check or with Class A Preferred Units; provided,
that if Holdings elects to pay Executive with Class A Preferred Units, upon the
request of Holdings, Executive shall enter into documentation with Holdings with
respect to the issuance of such Class A Preferred Units on terms and conditions
reasonably acceptable to Holdings. In addition, Holdings may pay the total
purchase price for such Units by offsetting amounts outstanding under any bona
fide debts owed by Executive to Holdings. Holdings, the Other Senior Managers
and the Investors will be entitled to receive customary representations and
warranties from the sellers regarding such sale and to require that all sellers'
signatures be guaranteed.

      (h) If within six months following the repurchase of Executive Units
pursuant to the Repurchase Option under this Section 1.3, (i) a Sale of the
Company or a Public Offering occurs and (ii) the amount received by Executive
for Vested Common Units pursuant to the Repurchase Option is less than the
amount that Executive would have received for such Vested Common Units had
Holdings not repurchased such Vested Common Units pursuant to the Repurchase
Option and had Executive disposed of such Vested Common Units (or such other
securities into

                                       4
<PAGE>

which such Vested Common Units may have been exchanged or converted) pursuant to
such Sale of the Company or Public Offering, then Executive shall be entitled to
receive the benefit of such higher valuation for the Vested Common Units sold
under the Repurchase Option. Subject to Section 1.5 hereof, the excess of (x)
the amount which Executive would have received in such Sale of the Company or
Public Offering assuming the sale of his Vested Common Units purchased by
exercise of the Repurchase Option in connection with such transaction, over (y)
the purchase price of the Vested Common Units paid to Executive under the
Repurchase Option (the "Excess"), shall be paid by Holdings (or any designee of
Holdings) to Executive by wire transfer of immediately available funds (to such
account designated in writing by Executive) promptly upon consummation of any
such transaction; provided, however, if (i) the repurchase of Executive Units
under this Section 1.3 was paid by Holdings with Class A Preferred Units and in
connection with a Sale of the Company the holders of Class A Preferred Units
received consideration other than cash in exchange for such Class A Preferred
Units, then Holdings may pay the Excess to Executive in the same form of
consideration which the holders of Class A Preferred Units received in such Sale
of the Company, or (ii) the repurchase of Executive Units under this Section 1.3
was paid by Holdings with Class A Preferred Units and in connection with a
Public Offering the Class A Preferred Units were converted into common stock or
another form of equity security, then Holdings may pay the Excess to Executive
in the form of common stock or such other equity security into which the Class A
Preferred Units were converted in connection with such Public Offering;
provided, further, if the repurchase of Executive Units under this Section 1.3
was paid by Holdings with Class A Preferred Units and at the time of the Sale of
the Company or the Public Offering there were no issued and outstanding Class A
Preferred Units other than Class A Preferred Units held by Executive, then
Executive shall be paid the Excess by Holdings (or any designee of Holdings), at
the option of Holdings, by wire transfer of immediately available funds (to such
account designated in writing by Executive) or in the form of compensation
received by the holders of Common Units, in either case promptly upon
consummation of any such transaction.

      1.4 Restrictions on Transfer.

      (a) Transfer of Executive Units. Executive shall not, directly or
indirectly, transfer, sell, assign, pledge, offer or otherwise dispose of any
interest in any Executive Units (a "Transfer") except pursuant to (i) Section
1.2 , Section 1.3, Section 1.4(c), Section 1.4(d) or Section 1.4(e) hereof, (ii)
Section 3(a) (participation rights), Section 3(c) (permitted transfers) and
Section 5 (sale of the company) of the Securityholders Agreement, or (iii) a
Public Sale (clauses (i) through (iii) collectively referred to herein as
"Exempt Transfers"). Prior to effecting any Transfer of Executive Units (other
than (y) to Holdings, to any Other Senior Manager or to the Investors or (z) in
connection with a Public Sale or Sale of the Company), Executive shall obtain
from each transferee their written agreement to be bound by the provisions of
Section 1.4 of this Agreement for the benefit of Holdings, the Other Senior
Managers and the Investors.

      (b) Sale Notice. Prior to making any Transfer (other than an Exempt
Transfer), Executive will give written notice (the "Sale Notice") to Holdings,
the Other Senior Managers and the Investors. The Sale Notice will disclose in
reasonable detail the number of Units to be transferred and the terms and
conditions of the proposed Transfer and, if known, the identity of the
prospective transferee(s). Executive will not consummate any such Transfer until
90 days after the Sale Notice has been given to Holdings, the Other Senior
Managers and the Investors,

                                       5
<PAGE>

unless the parties to the Transfer have been fully determined pursuant to this
Section 1.4(b), Section 1.4(c) and Section 1.4(d) prior to the expiration of
such 90-day period. (The date of the first to occur of such events is referred
to herein as the "Authorization Date").

      (c) First Refusal Rights. Holdings may elect to purchase all (but not less
than all) of the Executive Units to be Transferred upon the same terms and
conditions as those set forth in the Sale Notice by delivering a written notice
of such election to Executive, each Other Senior Manager and each Investor
within 30 days after the Sale Notice has been given to Holdings. If Holdings has
not elected to purchase all of the Executive Units to be Transferred, the Other
Senior Managers may elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the
Executive Units to be Transferred upon the same terms and conditions as those
set forth in the Sale Notice by giving written notice of such election to
Executive, Holdings and the Investors within 60 days after the Sale Notice has
been given to the Other Senior Managers. The Other Senior Managers' rights
hereunder shall be allocated among the Other Senior Managers pro rata based on
the number of Common Units owned by each Other Senior Manager on a Fully Diluted
Basis. If Holdings and the Other Senior Managers have not elected to purchase
all of the Executive Units to be Transferred, the Investors may elect to
purchase all (but not less than all) of the Executive Units to be Transferred
upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Sale Notice by
giving written notice of such election to Executive, Holdings and each Other
Senior Manager within 90 days after the Sale Notice has been given to the
Investors. If Holdings, the Other Senior Managers or the Investors do not elect
to purchase all of the Executive Units specified in the Sale Notice, Executive
may Transfer the Executive Units specified in the Sale Notice at a price and on
terms no more favorable to the transferee(s) thereof than specified in the Sale
Notice during the 30-day period immediately following the Authorization Date.
Any Executive Units not Transferred within such 30-day period will be subject to
the provisions of this Section 1.4(c) upon subsequent Transfer.

      (d) Co-Sale Rights. The Investors may elect to participate in the
contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to Executive within 90 days
after delivery of the Sale Notice to the Investors. If any of the Investors
(each a "Participating Investor") have elected to participate in such Transfer,
and any of the Units specified in the Sale Notice are Common Units, Executive
and the Participating Investors shall be entitled to sell in the contemplated
Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of Common Units
equal to the product of (x) the quotient determined by dividing the percentage
of Common Units owned by such Person by the aggregate percentage of Common Units
owned by Executive and all Participating Investors and (y) the number of Common
Units to be sold in the contemplated Transfer.

      For example, if the Sale Notice contemplated a sale of 100 Common Units by
      Executive, and if Executive was at such time the owner of 30% of Holdings'
      outstanding Common Units (on a fully-diluted basis) and if one
      Participating Investor elects to participate and such Participating
      Investor owns 20% of Holdings' outstanding Common Units (on a
      fully-diluted basis), Executive would be entitled to sell 60 Common Units
      ((30% / 50%) x 100 Units) and the Participating Investor would be entitled
      to sell 40 Common Units ((20% / 50%) x 100 Units).

                                       6
<PAGE>

If any of the Executive Units specified in the Sale Notice consist of Class C
Preferred Units, Executive and the Participating Investors shall be entitled to
sell in the contemplated Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a
number of Class C Preferred Units equal to the aggregate number of Class C
Preferred Units to be Transferred multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the Class C Unreturned Capital plus the Class C Unpaid Yield of all
Class C Preferred Units held by such Person and the denominator of which is the
aggregate Class C Unreturned Capital plus the Class C Unpaid Yield of all Class
C Preferred Units held by Executive and the Participating Investors.

      For example, if the Sale Notice contemplated a sale of 100 Class C
      Preferred Units by Executive, and if the Class C Unreturned Capital plus
      the Class C Unpaid Yield on all Class C Preferred Units held by Executive
      was at such time $1,080,000, and if one Participating Investor elects to
      participate and the Class C Unreturned Capital plus the Class C Unpaid
      Yield on all Class C Preferred Units held by such Participating Investor
      was at such time $2,160,000, Executive would be entitled to sell 33 1/3
      Class C Preferred Units ((1,080,000 / 3,240,000) x 100 Units) and the
      Participating Investor would be entitled to sell 66 2/3 Class C Preferred
      Units ((2,160,000 / 3,240,000) x 100 Units).

Executive will use his best efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective
transferee(s) to the participation of the Investors in the contemplated Transfer
and will not Transfer any Executive Units to the prospective transferee(s) if
such transferee(s) refuse(s) to allow the participation of the Investors.

      (e) Permitted Transfers. The restrictions contained in this Section 1.4
shall not apply with respect to any Transfer of Executive Units pursuant to
applicable laws of descent and distribution or among such Executive and such
Executive's Family Members; provided that such restrictions will continue to be
applicable to the Executive Units after any such Transfer and the transferees of
such Executive Units have agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of
this Agreement.

      (f) Legend. The certificates representing the Executive Units will bear a
legend in substantially the following form:

      "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
      UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE
      SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
      UNDER THE ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER. THE SECURITIES
      REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL
      RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, CERTAIN REPURCHASE OPTIONS AND CERTAIN OTHER
      AGREEMENTS SET FORTH IN A SENIOR MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN COINMACH
      CORPORATION ("COINMACH") AND MITCHELL BLATT, DATED AS OF MARCH 6, 2003.
      COINMACH MAY REQUEST A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL (FROM COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE
      TO COINMACH) SATISFACTORY TO COINMACH, TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION IS
      NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH SALE, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION, OR
      OTHER TRANSFER. A COPY OF SUCH

                                       7
<PAGE>

      AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED AT COINMACH'S PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS
      WITHOUT CHARGE."

      1.5 Payments. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, payments (including, but not limited to, in the
form of securities) to be made to Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be
made only to the extent permitted by the financing arrangements of Holdings and
its Subsidiaries in effect at the time such payments are required to be made;
provided, however, such payments shall be made at such time that they are
permitted to be made by such financing arrangements.

      1.6 Opinion. In connection with the Transfer of any Executive Units (other
than an Exempt Transfer or in connection with a Sale of the Company), the holder
thereof shall deliver written notice to Holdings describing in reasonable detail
the Transfer or proposed Transfer, which, if requested by Holdings, shall be
accompanied by an opinion of counsel which (to Holdings' reasonable
satisfaction) is knowledgeable in securities law matters to the effect that such
Transfer of Executive Units may be effected without registration of such
Executive Units under the Securities Act. In addition, if the holder of the
Executive Units delivers to Holdings an opinion of counsel that no subsequent
Transfer of such Executive Units shall require registration under the Securities
Act, Holdings shall promptly upon such contemplated Transfer deliver new
certificates for such Executive Units which do not bear the Securities Act
legend set forth in Section 1.4(f) (but which may bear any applicable
contractual restrictions on Transfer).

                                   ARTICLE II
                        PROVISIONS RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT

      2.1 Employment. The Company agrees to employ Executive, and Executive
accepts such employment, for the period from the date hereof until such
employment is terminated (the "Employment Period").

      (a) Duties. During the Employment Period, Executive shall serve as the
President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and shall have the normal
duties, responsibilities and authority assigned to him by the Holdings Board and
the Company's by-laws.

      (b) Salary, Bonus and Benefits.

            (i) Salary. During the Employment Period, the Company will pay
      Executive a base salary (the "Annual Base Salary") as the Holdings Board
      may designate from time to time, beginning at the rate of $352,000 per
      annum, which amount shall be reviewed and may be increased, but not
      decreased, annually by the Holdings Board in its sole discretion.
      Executive's Annual Base Salary for any partial year will be prorated based
      upon the number of days elapsed in such year.

            (ii) Bonus. Executive will be entitled to receive any bonus which
      the Holdings Board may grant in its discretion. In addition, upon the
      consummation of a Qualified Disposition, Executive will be entitled to a
      bonus in an amount equal to 2.0 times the sum of his Annual Base Salary
      then in effect plus the amount of the bonus paid

                                       8
<PAGE>

      to Executive for the most recently completed fiscal year, payable in a
      lump sum on the closing of such Qualified Disposition.

            (iii) Benefits. During the Employment Period, Executive will be
      entitled to benefits consistent with past practices, as well as to such
      other benefits approved by the Holdings Board and made available to the
      Company's senior management, in each case, as such benefits may be
      adjusted by the Holdings Board from time to time.

      (c) Severance. If Executive's employment with the Company is terminated by
the Holdings Board without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason (and not by
reason of Executive's death or disability) and (i) no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Executive shall be entitled to receive severance pay
in an amount equal to 2.0 times the sum of his Annual Base Salary then in effect
plus the amount of the bonus paid to Executive for the most recently completed
fiscal year, payable in 18 equal monthly installments, or (ii) an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Executive shall be entitled to receive
severance pay in an amount equal to his Annual Base Salary then in effect
payable in 12 equal monthly installments, in the case of each of clauses (i) and
(ii) subject to applicable withholding tax requirements, commencing upon the
execution by the Company and Executive of a mutual release of the parties'
respective rights, duties, privileges and obligations hereunder other than those
rights, duties, privileges and obligations which are contemplated to continue
beyond the Employment Period, which release the parties hereby agree to use
their reasonable good faith efforts to secure.

      (d) Effect of Termination on Bonuses and Benefits. All of Executive's
rights to fringe benefits and bonuses hereunder (if any) which accrue after the
Date of Termination shall, except as otherwise provided by law, cease upon such
Date of Termination; provided, however, that Executive shall continue to be
entitled to medical benefits consistent with those provided to Executive prior
to the Date of Termination during the period that severance payments are being
made to Executive pursuant to Section 2.1(c) hereof. The Company may offset the
amounts of any outstanding loans, advances or other disbursements made to or on
behalf of Executive by the Company against any amounts the Company owes
Executive hereunder for severance pay, benefits, bonuses or other items.

      2.2 Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that the information,
observations and data obtained by him during the course of his performance
concerning the business and affairs of Holdings, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates
will be the property of Holdings and its Subsidiaries. Therefore, Executive
agrees that he will not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for the
account of any Person other than Holdings and its Subsidiaries any such
information, observations or data ("Confidential Information") without the
Holdings Board's written consent, unless and to the extent that the
aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the
public other than as a result of Executive's acts or omissions to act and except
as required by law or legal process. Executive agrees to deliver to the Company

which he may then possess or have under his control. "Confidential Information"

<PAGE>

acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to Holdings' or its
Subsidiaries' business or industry of which Executive becomes aware during his
employment.

      2.3 Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation.

      (a) Noncompetition. Executive acknowledges that in the course of his
employment with the Company he will become familiar, and during his employment
with the Company prior to the date of this Agreement he has become familiar,
with Holdings', its Subsidiaries', and each of their Affiliates' (collectively,
the "Coinmach Group") trade secrets and with other confidential information
concerning the Coinmach Group, and that his services will be of special, unique
and extraordinary value to the Coinmach Group. Therefore, Executive agrees that,
during the Employment Period and for one year thereafter (the "Noncompete
Period"), he shall not directly or indirectly own, manage, control, participate
in, consult with, assist, render services for, or in any manner engage in any
business competing with, or otherwise substantially similar to, the businesses
of the Coinmach Group as such businesses exist or are in process on the Date of
Termination, (i) within the geographical area included in the 50-mile radius
around each location of a customer of the Coinmach Group or any business which a
member of the Coinmach Group is actively considering acquiring at the time of
Executive's termination or has actively considered acquiring in the last 12
months or (ii) within any State in the United States or any Province in Canada
in which Executive has spent a significant amount of time on behalf of the
Coinmach Group at any time during the twelve-month period prior to the Date of
Termination. The restrictions of this Section 2.3(a) shall not apply to
Executive's ownership interests in not more than three laundromats at any one
time.

      (b) Nonsolicitation. During the Noncompete Period, Executive shall not
directly or indirectly through another entity (i) induce or attempt to induce
any employee of the Coinmach Group to leave the employ of the Coinmach Group, or
in any way interfere with the relationship between the Coinmach Group and any
employee thereof, (ii) offer employment to or hire any person who was an
employee of the Coinmach Group at any time during the one-year period prior to
the Date of Termination, or (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer,
supplier, licensee or other business relation of the Coinmach Group to cease
doing business with the Coinmach Group, or in any way interfere with the
relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation
and the Coinmach Group.

      (c) Enforcement. If, at the time of enforcement of Section 2.2 or Section
2.3 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are
unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that
the maximum duration, scope and geographical area reasonable under such
circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope and area and
that the court shall be allowed to reduce the restrictions contained herein to
cover the maximum duration, scope and area permitted by law.

      (d) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (i) submits to
the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in New York, New York in
any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, (ii)
agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard or
determined in any such court and (iii) agrees not to bring any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each
of the parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
any action

                                       10
<PAGE>

or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that
might be required of any other party with respect thereto. Each party agrees
that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive
and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by
law.

      (e) Additional Acknowledgments. Executive acknowledges that the provisions
of Section 2.2 and Section 2.3 are in consideration of: (i) employment with the
Company, and (ii) additional good and valuable consideration as set forth in
this Agreement. In addition, Executive agrees and acknowledges that the
restrictions contained in Section 2.2 and this Section 2.3 do not preclude
Executive from earning a livelihood, nor do they unreasonably impose limitations
on Executive's ability to earn a living. In addition, Executive acknowledges (i)
that the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries will be national in scope
and without geographical limitation, (ii) notwithstanding the state of
incorporation or principal office of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or
any of their respective executives or employees (including Executive), it is
expected that the Company will have business activities and have valuable
business relationships within its industry throughout the United States, and
(iii) as part of Executive's responsibilities, Executive will be traveling
around the United States in furtherance of the Company's business and its
relationships. Executive agrees and acknowledges that the potential harm to the
Company of the non-enforcement of Section 2.2 and this Section 2.3 outweighs any
potential harm to Executive of its enforcement by injunction or otherwise.
Executive acknowledges that he has carefully read this Agreement and has given
careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon him by this Agreement, and
is in full accord as to their necessity for the reasonable and proper protection
of confidential and proprietary information of the Company now existing or to be
developed in the future. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that each
and every restraint imposed by this Agreement is reasonable with respect to
subject matter, time period and geographical area.

employment, severance, securities option bonus or other employee benefit, loan,
tax or other indemnity agreement among Executive and his Affiliates, on one
hand, and the Company and its Affiliates, on the other hand, including, without
limitation, the Existing Employment Agreement; provided, however, that this
Agreement shall not terminate and cancel or otherwise modify in any manner the
Equity Purchase Agreement.

(including by means of telecopied signature pages), each of which is deemed to
be an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the same
agreement.

      (e) Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, this
Agreement shall bind Executive and the Company and their respective successors
and permitted assigns and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
Executive, the Company, GTCR, the Investors and each of their respective

Agreement, and (ii) Section 3(a) (participation rights) and Section 3(c)
(permitted transfers) of the Securityholders Agreement.

      (f) Choice of Law. The corporate law of the State of Delaware will govern
all questions concerning the relative rights of the Company and its
securityholders. All other questions concerning the construction, validity and
interpretation of this Agreement and the exhibits hereto will be governed by and
construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without
giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether

application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

      (g) Remedies. Each of the parties to this Agreement (including the
Investors) will be entitled to enforce its rights under this Agreement,
specifically, to recover damages and costs (including attorney's fees) caused by
any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights
existing in its favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money
damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this
Agreement and, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3(d), that any party
may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent
jurisdiction (without posting any

order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Agreement.

      (h) Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
the provisions of this Agreement may be amended or modified only by written
agreement of the Company and Executive. No other course of dealing between the
parties or third-party beneficiaries hereof or any delay in exercising any
rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any such holders.

      (i) Survival Upon Termination. Notwithstanding a Termination, this
Agreement (excluding Sections 2.1(a) and (b)) shall survive and continue in full
force and effect in accordance with its terms.

      (j) Business Days. If any time period for giving notice or taking action
hereunder expires on a day which is a Saturday, Sunday or holiday in the state
in which the Company's chief executive office is located, the time period shall
be automatically extended to the business day immediately following such
Saturday, Sunday or holiday.

      (k) Indemnification and Reimbursement of Payments on Behalf of Executive.
The Company and its Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from
any amounts owing from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Executive any
federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise taxes, or employment
taxes ("Taxes") imposed with respect to Executive's compensation or other
payments from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Executive's ownership
interest in the Company, including, without limitation, wages, bonuses,
dividends, the receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or
vesting of restricted equity. In the event the Company or its Subsidiaries does
not make such deductions or withholdings, Executive shall indemnify the Company
and its Subsidiaries for any amounts paid with respect to any such Taxes.

      (l) Deemed Transfer of Executive Units. If the Company (and/or the
Investors and/or any other Person acquiring securities) shall make available, at
the time and place and in the amount and form provided in this Agreement, the
consideration for the Executive Units to be repurchased in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, then from and after such time, the Person from
whom such Units are to be repurchased shall no longer have any rights as a
holder of such Units (other than the right to receive payment of such
consideration in accordance with this Agreement), and such Units shall be deemed
purchased in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof and the Company
(and/or the Investors and/or any other Person acquiring securities) shall be
deemed the owner and holder of such Units, whether or not the certificates
therefor have been delivered as required by this Agreement.

      (m) Rights Granted to GTCR and Other Investors and Their Affiliates. Any
rights granted to GTCR and other Investors and their Affiliates hereunder may
also be exercised (in whole or in part) by any Affiliate thereof.

      (n) Third-Party Beneficiaries. Certain provisions of this Agreement are
entered into for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by the Investors as
provided herein.
