                  The Borrower wishes to obtain financing from time to time to
provide interim funding for certain leases of, and loans in respect of,
Equipment (as defined herein), which equipment leases and loans are to be
contributed to one or more trusts or other vehicles to be sponsored by the
Borrower or an Affiliate thereof, and which equipment leases and loans and which
Equipment shall, directly or indirectly, secure the Loans (as defined herein) to
be made by the Lender hereunder.

                  The Lender has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of
this Loan Agreement, to provide such funding, with a portion of the proceeds of
the sale of all equipment lease and loan asset-backed securities issued by any
such trust or other vehicle, together with other funds of the Borrower, being
used to repay any Loans made hereunder.

Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date. Such Request for Borrowing
shall (i) attach a Contract Schedule in respect of the Eligible Contracts that

Base in connection with such Loan, (ii) specify the requested Funding Date,
which shall be at least two (2) Business Days after the date of such Request for

<PAGE>   18

                  (b) Upon receipt of the Borrower's Request for Borrowing, the
Lender may, at its option, agree to make a Loan to the Borrower by executing and
delivering, via telecopy, a loan supplement to the Borrower substantially in the
form of Exhibit D-2 attached hereto (a "Loan Supplement") no later than 11:00
a.m. (New York City time) one (1) Business Day after its receipt of such Request
for Borrowing. Such Loan Supplement shall identify the Lender and the Borrower,
attach a schedule identifying the Eligible Contracts proposed to be pledged by
the Borrower to the Lender on such Funding Date which are acceptable to the
Lender to be pledged as Collateral hereunder and included in the Borrowing Base,
and shall set forth (i) the Funding Date and (ii) the amount of the Loan to be
made on such Funding Date, and may contain additional terms or conditions which
may or may not be inconsistent with this Loan Agreement. With respect to
Eligible Contracts which are rejected by the Lender as Collateral hereunder,
upon the request of the Borrower, the Lender shall indicate to the Borrower the
reason or reasons, if any, for the rejection of such Eligible Contracts. The
making of any Loan described in a Loan Supplement shall remain subject to the
satisfaction by the Borrower of all of the conditions precedent to any Loan
contained in this Loan Agreement. In the event there is a conflict between the
terms of this Loan Agreement and the terms of the Loan Supplement, the terms of
the Loan Supplement shall control. Each Loan Supplement, together with this Loan
Agreement, shall be conclusive evidence of the terms of the Loan(s) covered
thereby. If the Borrower has not received a Loan Supplement from the Lender
prior to such time, such Request for Borrowing shall be deemed to have been
rejected by the Lender.

11:00 a.m., New York City time, two (2) Business Days prior to the requested
Funding Date, the Contract File pertaining to each Eligible Contract to be
pledged to the Lender and included in the Borrowing Base on such requested
Funding Date, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Custodial
Agreement.

                  (d) Pursuant to the Custodial Agreement, the Custodian shall
deliver to the Lender and the Borrower, no later than 11:00 a.m. on a Funding
Date, a Trust Receipt in respect of all Contracts pledged to the Lender on such
Funding Date. Subject to Section 5 hereof, such Loan will then be made available
to the Borrower by the Lender transferring, via wire transfer, to the following
account of the Borrower: Fleet Bank, National Association, for the A/C of DVI
Financial Services Inc., ABA# 021200339, Account# 2181-01-6540, Attn: Wendy
Jordan, on such Funding Date, in the aggregate amount of such Loan in funds
immediately available to the Borrower.

                  (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Loan
Agreement, (i) if the Lender is unable, after good faith effort, to obtain a
source of funds for the proposed Loan on substantially the same economic terms
as are available to the Lender as of the date of this Loan Agreement, and as a
result the cost to the Lender of making such Loan is increased by an amount
which the Lender deems material, the Lender shall not be obligated to consider
making such Loan unless the Borrower agrees to pay the Lender any additional
amounts necessary to compensate the Lender for such increased cost, as notified
by the Lender to the Borrower, and (ii) the Lender shall have no obligation to
consider making any Loan hereunder if there shall

                                      -12-
<PAGE>   19
have occurred any material adverse change in (A) the financial condition of the
Borrower or the Guarantor, (B) the financial markets generally or (C) the

any determination by the Lender of any of the foregoing.

amount thereof for the period from and including the Funding Date with respect

rate per annum equal to [redacted]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower
hereby promises to pay to the Lender interest at the applicable Post-Default
Rate on any principal of any Loan and on any other amount payable by the
Borrower hereunder or under the Note that shall not be paid in full when due
(whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or by mandatory prepayment or
otherwise), for the period from and including the due date thereof to but
excluding the date the same is paid in full (both before and after judgment).

                  (c) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable on each
Interest Payment Date (and for the last month (or portion thereof) of the Loan
Agreement on the Termination Date), except that if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be
payable from time to time on demand.

                  2.05 Optional Prepayments. The Loans are prepayable at any
time without premium or penalty, in whole or in part but subject to Section
2.07. Any amounts prepaid shall be applied to repay the outstanding principal
amount of any Loans (together with interest thereon) until paid in full. Amounts
prepaid may be reborrowed in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement.
If the Borrower intends to repay a Loan in whole or in substantial part from a
source other than the proceeds of Certificates, the Borrower shall give two (2)
Business Days' irrevocable prior written notice thereof to the Lender. If such
notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on
the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the
amount prepaid. Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal amount of
$1,000,000 or more.

of Loans exceeds the Borrowing Base (a "Borrowing Base Deficiency"), as
determined by the Lender and notified to the Borrower on any Business Day, the
Borrower shall no later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of such notice,
at the option of the Borrower, either prepay the Loans in part or in whole or
pledge additional Collateral (which Collateral shall be in all respects
acceptable to the Lender) to the Lender, such that after giving effect to such
prepayment or pledge the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans
does not exceed the Borrowing Base.

                  (b) The Borrower shall prepay the Loans in part or in whole to
the extent required by Section 7.17(b) hereof.

to indemnify the Lender and to hold the Lender harmless from any net loss or
expense (not to include any lost profit or opportunity cost) which the Lender
may sustain or incur as a consequence of default by the Borrower in making any
prepayment on the date so specified after the Borrower has given a notice in
accordance with Section 2.05 or a prepayment of a Loan on a day which is not the
Termination Date, including, without limitation, in each case, any such loss or

                  (c) The Borrower hereby assigns, pledges and grants a security
interest in the Collateral to the Lender to secure the repayment of principal of
and interest on all Loans and all other amounts owing to the Lender hereunder,
under the Note and under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the "Secured
Obligations"). The Borrower agrees to mark its computer programs and tapes to
evidence the interests granted to the Lender hereunder.

                  4.02 Further Documentation. At any time and from time to time,
upon the written request of the Lender, and at the sole expense of the Borrower,
the Borrower will promptly and duly execute and deliver, or will promptly cause
to be executed and delivered, such further instruments and documents and take
such further action as the Lender may reasonably request for the purpose of
obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Loan Agreement and of the
rights and powers herein granted, including, without limitation, the filing of
any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in
effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the Liens created hereby. The
Borrower also hereby authorizes the Lender to file any such financing or
continuation statement without the signature of the Borrower to the extent
permitted by applicable law. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of
this Loan Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement for filing in
any jurisdiction.

                  4.03 Changes in Locations, Name, etc. The Borrower shall not
(i) change the location of its chief executive office/chief place of business

corporate structure (or the equivalent) or change the location where it
maintains its records with respect to the Collateral unless it shall have given
the Lender at least 30 days prior written notice thereof and shall have
delivered to the Lender all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and
amendments thereto as Lender shall request and taken all other actions deemed
necessary by Lender to continue its perfected status in the Collateral with the
same or better priority.

                  4.04     Lender's Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.

                  (a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints
the Lender and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as
its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority
in the place and stead of the Borrower and in the name of the Borrower or in its
own name, from time to time in the Lender's discretion and at the Borrower's
expense, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Loan Agreement, to
pay insurance in respect of, and to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or
placed on or threatened against, the Collateral, all as fully and effectively as
the Borrower might do and, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, to take any and all other appropriate action and to execute any and
all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish
the purposes of this Loan Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Borrower hereby gives the Lender the power and right, on behalf
of the Borrower, without assent by, but with notice to, the Borrower, if an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to do the following:

                                      -16-
<PAGE>   23
                  (i) in the name of the Borrower or its own name, or otherwise,
         to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts,
         notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due
         under any Collateral and to file any claim or to take any other action
         or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed
         appropriate by the Lender for the purpose of collecting any and all
         such moneys due under any such Collateral whenever payable; and

                  (ii) (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any
         Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due
         thereunder directly to the Lender or as the Lender shall direct; (B) to
         ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and
         all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time
         in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (C) to sign and endorse
         any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents
         in connection with any of the Collateral; (D) to commence and prosecute
         any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of
         competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral and to enforce any
         other right in respect of any Collateral; (E) to defend any suit,
         action or proceeding brought against the Borrower with respect to any
         Collateral; (F) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or
         proceeding described in clause (E) above and, in connection therewith,
         to give such discharges or releases as the Lender may deem appropriate;
         and (G) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement
         with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully
         and completely as though the Lender were the absolute owner thereof for
         all purposes, and to do, at the Lender's option and the Borrower's
         expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which
         the Lender deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize
         upon the Collateral and the Lender's Liens thereon and to effect the
         intent of this Loan Agreement, all as fully and effective as the
         Borrower might do.

The Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause
to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an
interest and shall be irrevocable.

                  (b) The Borrower also authorizes the Lender, at any time and
from time to time, to execute, in connection with the sale provided for in
Section 4.07 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of
conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral.

                  (c) The powers conferred on the Lender are solely to protect
the Lender's interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the
Lender to exercise any such powers. The Lender shall be accountable only for
amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers,
and neither the Lender nor any of its officers, directors, or employees shall be
responsible to the Borrower for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for
its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                  4.05 Performance by Lender of Borrower's Obligations. If the
Borrower fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in the
Loan Documents and the 

                                      -17-
<PAGE>   24
Lender shall itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or
compliance, with such agreement, the expenses of the Lender incurred in
connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon
at a rate per annum equal to the Post-Default Rate, shall be payable by the
Borrower to the Lender on demand and shall constitute Secured Obligations.

                  4.6 Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall occur and be
                      continuing, (a) all proceeds of Collateral received by the
                      Borrower consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash
                      items shall be held by the Borrower in trust for the
                      Lender, segregated from other funds of the Borrower, and
                      shall forthwith upon receipt by the Borrower be turned
                      over to the Lender in the exact form received by the
                      Borrower (duly endorsed by the Borrower to the Lender, if
                      required) and (b) any and all such proceeds received by
                      the Lender (whether from the Borrower or otherwise) may,
                      in the sole discretion of the Lender, be held by the
                      Lender as collateral security for, and/or then or at any
                      time thereafter may be applied by the Lender against, the
                      Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured), such
                      application to be in such order as the Lender shall elect.
                      Any balance of such proceeds remaining after the Secured
                      Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Loan
                      Agreement shall have been terminated shall be paid over to
                      the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to
                      receive the same. For purposes hereof, proceeds shall
                      include, but not be limited to, all principal and interest
                      payments, all prepayments and payoffs, insurance claims,
                      condemnation awards, sale proceeds, and any other income
                      and all other amounts received with respect to the
                      Collateral.

                  4.07 Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the Lender may exercise, in addition to all other rights and
remedies granted to it in this Loan Agreement and in any other instrument or
agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all
rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lender without demand of
performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of
any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the
Borrower or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses,
advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances
forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any
part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options
to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part
thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels or as
an entirety at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's board
or office of the Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may
deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or
for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Lender shall have
the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by
law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of
the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the
Borrower, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. The Borrower
further agrees, at the Lender's request, to assemble the Collateral and 

                                      -18-
<PAGE>   25
make it available to the Lender at places which the Lender shall reasonably
select, whether at the Borrower's premises or elsewhere. The Lender shall apply
the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation,
realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every
kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the
Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Lender
hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, in
such order as the Lender may elect, and only after such application and after
the payment by the Lender of any other amount required or permitted by any
provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-504(1)(c) of the
Uniform Commercial Code, need the Lender account for the surplus, if any, to the
Borrower. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower waives all
claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Lender arising out of the
exercise by the Lender of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims,
damages and demands arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
the Lender. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral
shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if
given at least ten days before such sale or other disposition. The Borrower and
the Guarantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale
or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured
Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the
Lender to collect such deficiency.

                  4.08 Limitation on Duties Regarding Presentation of
Collateral. The Lender's duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and
physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207
of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the
same manner as the Lender deals with similar property for its own account.
Neither the Lender nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be
liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the
Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell
or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Borrower or
otherwise.

                  4.09 Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and
agencies herein contained with respect to the Collateral are irrevocable and
powers coupled with an interest.

                  4.10 Release of Security Interest. Upon termination of this
Loan Agreement and repayment to the Lender of all Secured Obligations and the
performance of all obligations under the Loan Documents the Lender shall release
its security interest in any remaining Collateral.

                  Section 5.  Conditions Precedent.

                  5.01 Initial Loan. The agreement of the Lender to make the

         with the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower or the

         Loan requested to be made on such date.

                  (b) Representations and Warranties. Each of the
         representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the Guarantor
         in or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all
         material respects on and as of such date as if made on and as of such
         date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to
         have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date), and
         the Lender shall have received an officer's certificate duly executed
         by a Responsible Officer of each of the Borrower and the Guarantor to
         that effect.

                  (c) Borrowing Base. The aggregate outstanding principal amount
         of the Loans shall not exceed the Borrowing Base on such date and would
         not exceed the Borrowing Base after giving effect to the Loan requested
         to be made on such date.

                  (d) Due Diligence Review. The Lender shall have completed its
         due diligence review, if any, of the Contract Files relating to the
         Contracts being pledged in connection with the Loan being made on such
         Funding Date, the results of which are satisfactory to the Lender.

                  (e) Trust Receipt. The Lender shall have received from the
         Custodian a Trust Receipt in respect of Eligible Contracts to be
         pledged hereunder on such Business Day, dated such Business Day and
         duly completed and disclosing no material deficiencies in such Eligible

         third party, the Lender shall have received the results of a recent
         lien search in each of the jurisdictions and offices where the related
         Obligor and such Equipment are located, and such lien searches shall
         reveal no Liens encumbering such Equipment or, if Liens do exist, the
         Lender shall have received satisfactory evidence of release of such
         Liens prior to or concurrently with the Loan being made on such Funding
         Date.

                  (g) Additional Matters. All corporate and other proceedings,
         and all documents, instruments and other legal matters in connection
         with the transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement and the other
         Loan Documents shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance
         to the Lender, and the Lender shall have received such other documents
         and legal opinions in respect of any aspect or consequence of the
         transactions contemplated hereby or thereby as it shall reasonably
         request.

Each Request for Borrowing by the Borrower hereunder shall constitute a
certification by the Borrower of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent
set forth in paragraphs (a)-(c), above, (both as of the date of such Request for
Borrowing and, unless the Borrower otherwise notifies the Lender prior to the
date of such borrowing, as of the date of such borrowing).

                  Section 6. Representations and Warranties. The Borrower
represents and warrants to the Lender on the date hereof that:

                  6.01 Financial Condition. (a) The audited consolidated balance
sheets of the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at June 30, 1994
and as at June 30, 1995, and the related consolidated statements of income and
of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on each such date, reported thereon by
Deloitte & Touche, copies of which have heretofore been furnished to the Lender,
are complete and correct and present fairly the consolidated financial condition
of the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such dates, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for
the fiscal years then ended.

                  (b) The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Guarantor
and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at June 30, 1996, and the related unaudited
consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the twelve-month period
ended on such date, certified by a Responsible Officer, copies of which have
heretofore been furnished to the Lender, are complete and correct and present
fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Guarantor and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and their consolidated cash flows for
the twelve-month period then ended (subject to normal year-end audit
adjustments).

                  (c) All such financial statements, including the related
schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied
consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by such
accountants or Responsible Officer, as the case may be, and as disclosed
therein).

                  (d) Neither the Guarantor nor any of its consolidated
Subsidiaries had, at the date of the most recent balance sheet referred to
above, any material Guarantee Obligation, contingent liability or liability for
taxes, or any long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment,
including, without limitation, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or
exchange transaction, or other financial derivative, which is not reflected in
the foregoing statements or in the notes thereto.

                                      -23-
<PAGE>   30

                  6.02 No Change. Since June 30, 1996, there has been no
development or event nor any prospective development or event, which has had or
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  6.03 Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. The Borrower
(a) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the corporate power
and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease
the property it operates as lessee and to carry on its business as now being or
as proposed to be conducted, the lack of which would be reasonably likely to
have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is duly qualified to do business and is in
good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction in which the nature of the
business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary and where failure so
to qualify would be reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate)
to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) is in compliance in all material
respects with all Requirements of Law.

                  6.04 Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations.
(a) The Borrower has the corporate power and authority, and the legal right, to
make, deliver and perform this Loan Agreement, the Note, and each other Loan
Document to which it is a party, and to borrow and to grant Liens hereunder, and
has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the borrowings and the
granting of Liens on the terms and conditions of this Loan Agreement, the Note,
and each other Loan Document to which it is a party, and the execution, delivery
and performance of this Loan Agreement, the Note, and each other Loan Document
to which it is a party.

                  (b) No consent or authorization of, approval by, notice to,
filing with or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any
other Person is required or necessary in connection with the borrowings
hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or
enforceability of this Loan Agreement or the Note or any other Loan Document,
except (i) for filings and recordings in respect of the Liens created pursuant
to this Loan Agreement, and (ii) as previously obtained and currently in full
force and effect.

                  (c) This Loan Agreement has been duly and validly executed and
delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and the Note and each other Loan
Document when executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower will constitute,
a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the
Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited
by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or
at law).

                  6.05 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of
this Loan Agreement and the Note, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the
proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or material Contractual
Obligation of the Borrower or of any of its Subsidiaries and will not result in,
or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien

                                      -24-
<PAGE>   31
(other than the Liens created hereunder) on any of its or their respective
properties or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or material
Contractual Obligation.

                  6.06 No Material Litigation. There are no actions, suits,
arbitrations, investigations or proceedings of or before any arbitrator or
Governmental Authority pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened
against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or against any of its or their
respective properties or revenues, (i) with respect to this Loan Agreement or
the Note or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or (ii) which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  6.07 No Default. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual
Obligations in any respect which could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

                  6.08 Collateral; Collateral Security.

                  (a) The Borrower has not assigned, pledged, or otherwise
conveyed or encumbered any of the Collateral to any Person other than the
Lender, and immediately prior to the pledge of such Contract, the Borrower was
the sole owner of the Collateral and had good and marketable title thereto, free
and clear of all Liens, in each case except for Liens to be released
simultaneously with the Liens granted in favor of the Lender hereunder.

                  (b) The provisions of this Loan Agreement are effective to
create in favor of the Lender a valid first priority security interest in all
right, title and interest of the Borrower in, to and under the Collateral.

                  (c) Upon receipt by the Custodian of each Contract File, and
the filing of financing statements on Form UCC-1 naming the Lender as "Secured
Party" and the Borrower as "Debtor", and describing the Collateral, in the
jurisdictions and recording offices listed on Schedule 2 attached hereto, the
security interests granted hereunder in the Collateral will constitute fully
perfected first-priority security interests under the Uniform Commercial Code in
all right, title and interest of the Borrower in, to and under such Collateral,
which can be perfected by filing or possession under the Uniform Commercial
Code.

                  6.09 Chief Executive Office. The Borrower's chief executive
office on the Effective Date is located at 500 Hyde Park, Doylestown,
Pennsylvania, 18901.

                  6.10 Location of Books and Records. The location where the
Borrower keeps its books and records, including all computer tapes and records
relating to the Collateral is its chief executive office.

                  6.11 No Burdensome Restrictions. No Requirement of Law or
Contractual Obligation of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has a Material
Adverse Effect.

                                      -25-
<PAGE>   32
                  6.12 Taxes. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has
filed all Federal income tax returns and all other material tax returns that are
required to be filed by them and has paid all taxes due pursuant to such returns
or pursuant to any assessment received by any of them, except for any such taxes
or assessments, if any, that are being appropriately contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and with respect to which adequate
reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided. No tax Lien has been filed,
and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect
to any such tax or assessment.

                  6.13 Margin Regulations. Neither the making of any Loan
hereunder, nor the use of the proceeds thereof, will violate or be inconsistent
with the provisions of Regulation G, T, U or X.

                  6.14 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. The Borrower
is not an "investment company", or a company "controlled" by an "investment
company", within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
The Borrower is not subject to regulation under any Federal or state statute or
regulation which limits its ability to incur indebtedness.

                  6.15 Subsidiaries. All of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower at
the date hereof are listed on Schedule 3 to this Loan Agreement.

                  6.16 Third Party Representations. Each of the representations
and warranties made by the Guarantor in the Guarantee is true and correct in all
material respects.

                  6.17 Eligible Contracts. With respect to every Contract
delivered or to be delivered to the Custodian, the representations and
warranties set forth on Schedule 1 hereto applicable thereto are true and
correct.

                  6.18 Bulk Transfer. The transfer, assignment and conveyance of
the Contracts and the Contract Documents by the Borrower pursuant to this Loan
Agreement are not subject to the bulk transfer or any similar statutory
provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction.

                  6.19 Origination and Collection of Contracts. The Contracts
were originated or acquired by the Borrower, and the origination and collection
practices used by the Borrower with respect to each Contract have been, in all
respects legal, proper, prudent and customary in the equipment financing and
servicing business, and in accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines. With
respect to Contracts acquired by the Borrower, all such Contracts are in
conformity with the Underwriting Guidelines.

                  6.20 No Adverse Selection. The Borrower used no selection
procedures that identified the Contracts as being less desirable or valuable
than other comparable equipment leases, security agreements or installment sales
contracts owned by the Borrower.

                                      -26-
<PAGE>   33

                  6.21 Contracts are Financing Leases or Security Agreements.
(A) All of the Contracts other than FMV Leases are financing leases intended to
create a security interest in accordance with Section 1-201(37) of the Uniform
Commercial Code or security agreements which create a valid security interest
under the Uniform Commercial Code, (B) the Borrower does not own the Equipment
that is the subject of the Contracts other than FMV Leases and (C) the Borrower
has a perfected first priority Lien in the Equipment that is subject to
Contracts other than FMV Leases.

                  6.22 Borrower Solvent. As of the date hereof and immediately
after giving effect to each Loan, the fair value of the property of the Borrower
is greater than the fair value of the liabilities (including, without
limitation, contingent liabilities) of the Borrower and the Borrower is and will
be solvent, is and will be able to pay its debts as they mature and is and will
not have an unreasonably small capital to engage in the business in which it is
engaged and proposes to engage.

                  6.23 ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an "accumulated
funding deficiency" (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section
302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on
which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and
each Plan has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions
of ERISA and the Code. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred,
and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year
period. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer
Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the
last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is
made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to
such accrued benefits. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity
has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan, and
neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to
any liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity
were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation
date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or
deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or insolvent.
Except as set forth in the financial statements referred to in Section 6.01(a)
and (b), neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has any
material liability with respect to "expected post retirement benefit
obligations" within the meaning of Statement of Financial Account Standards No.
106.

                  6.24     Environmental Matters.

                  (a) To the best knowledge of the Borrower, the facilities and
properties owned, leased or operated by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries
(the "Properties") do not contain, and have not previously contained, any
Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations which (i)
constitute or constituted a violation of, or (ii) could reasonably be expected
to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law except in either case
insofar as such violation or liability, or any aggregation thereof, is not
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                                      -27-
<PAGE>   34

                  (b) To the best knowledge of the Borrower, there has been no
release or threat of release of Materials of Environmental Concern at or from
the Properties, or arising from or related to the operations of the Guarantor or
any Subsidiary in connection with the Properties or otherwise in connection with
the Business, in violation of or in amounts or in a manner that could reasonably
give rise to liability under Environmental Laws except insofar as any such
violation or liability referred to in this paragraph, or any aggregation
thereof, is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  Section 7. Covenants of the Borrower. The Borrower covenants
and agrees with the Lender that, so long as any Loan is outstanding and until
payment in full of all Secured Obligations:

Lender:

         Subsidiaries as at the end of such period and the related unaudited
         consolidated and consolidating statements of income and retained
         earnings and of cash flows for the Guarantor and its consolidated
         Subsidiaries for such period and the portion of the fiscal year through
         the end of such period, setting forth in each case in comparative form
         the figures for the previous year, accompanied by a certificate of a
         Responsible Officer of the Guarantor, which certificate shall state
         that said consolidated financial statements fairly present the
         consolidated and consolidating financial condition and results of
         operations of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries in accordance with
         GAAP, consistently applied, as at the end of, and for, such period
         (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments);

                  (b) as soon as available and in any event within ninety-five
         (95) days after the end of each fiscal year of the Guarantor, the

         the related consolidated and consolidating statements of income and
         retained earnings and of cash flows for the Guarantor and its
         consolidated Subsidiaries for such year, setting forth in each case in
         comparative form the figures for the previous year, accompanied by an
         opinion thereon of independent certified public accountants of
         recognized national standing, which opinion shall not be qualified as
         to scope of audit or going concern and shall state that said
         consolidated and consolidating financial statements fairly present the
         consolidated and consolidating financial condition and results of
         operations of the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at the
         end of, and for, such fiscal year in accordance with GAAP, and a
         certificate of such accountants stating that, in making the examination
         necessary for their opinion, they obtained no knowledge, except as
         specifically stated, of any Default or Event of Default;

                                      -28-

                  7.02 Existence, Etc. The Borrower will:

                  (a) preserve and maintain its legal existence and all of its
         material rights, privileges, licenses and franchises;

                  (b) comply with the requirements of all applicable laws,
         rules, regulations and orders of Governmental Authorities (including,
         without limitation, all environmental laws) if failure to comply with
         such requirements would be reasonably likely (either individually or in
         the aggregate) to have a Material Adverse Effect; and

                  (c) keep adequate records and books of account, in which
         complete entries will be made in accordance with GAAP consistently
         applied.

                  7.03 Insurance. The Borrower shall maintain insurance with
financially sound and reputable insurance companies, and with respect to
property and risks of a character usually maintained by entities engaged in the
same or similar business similarly situated, against loss, damage and liability
of the kinds and in the amounts customarily maintained by such entities.

                  7.04 Prohibition of Fundamental Changes. The Borrower shall
not enter into any transaction of merger or consolidation or amalgamation, or
liquidate, wind up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation, winding up or

         Subsidiaries that questions or challenges the validity or

to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that the Lender may have had
notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty
was false or misleading at the time such Loan was made.

                  11.12 Acknowledgments. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

                  (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation,
         execution and delivery of this Loan Agreement, the Note and the other
         Loan Documents;

                  (b) the Lender has no fiduciary relationship to the Borrower,
         and the relationship between the Borrower and the Lender is solely that
         of debtor and creditor; and

                  (c) no joint venture exists between the Lender and the
         Borrower.

                  11.13 Hypothecation or Pledge of Loans. The Lender shall have
free and unrestricted use of all Collateral and nothing in this Agreement shall
preclude the Lender from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Collateral
or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or
rehypothecating the Collateral. Nothing contained in this Loan Agreement shall
obligate the Lender to segregate any Collateral delivered to the Lender by the
Borrower.

                  11.14    Servicing.

                  (a) The Borrower shall service and administer the Contracts in
accordance with due care and customary and prudent servicing procedures for
equipment leases, security agreements and installment sale contracts of a
similar type and, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, shall have
full power and authority to do any and all things not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Loan Agreement which it may deem necessary or desirable in
connection with such servicing and administration. In the event that the
preceding language is interpreted as constituting one or more servicing
contracts, each such servicing contract shall terminate automatically upon the
earliest of (i) an Event of Default, or (ii) the date on which all the Secured
Obligations have been paid in full, or (iii) the transfer of servicing approved
by the Lender.

                  (b) If the Contracts are serviced by the Borrower, (i) the
Borrower acknowledges that Lender has been granted a security interest in all
servicing records, including but not limited to any and all servicing
agreements, files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of
computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals,
other closing documentation, payment history records, and any other records
relating to or evidencing the servicing of Contracts (the "Servicing Records"),
and (ii) the Borrower grants the Lender a security interest in all servicing
fees and rights relating to the Contracts and all Servicing Records to secure
the obligation of the Borrower or its designee to service in conformity with
this Section and any other obligation of Borrower to the Lender. The Borrower
covenants to safeguard such Servicing Records and to deliver them promptly to
the Lender or its designee (including the Custodian) at the Lender's request.

                  (c) If the Contracts are serviced by a third party servicer
(such third party servicer, the "Servicer"), the Borrower (i) shall provide a
copy of the servicing agreement to the Lender (the "Servicing Agreement"); and
(ii) hereby irrevocably assigns to the Lender and 

                                      -40-
<PAGE>   47
Lender's successors and assigns all right, title, interest and the benefits of
the Servicing Agreement with respect to the Contracts.

                  (d) The Borrower shall provide to the Lender a letter from the
Servicer to the effect that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the
Lender may terminate the Servicing Agreement and transfer such servicing to its
designee, at no cost or expense to the Lender, it being agreed that the Borrower
will pay any and all fees required to terminate the Servicing Agreement and to
effectuate the transfer of servicing to the Lender.

                  (e) After the Funding Date, until the pledge of such Contract
is relinquished by the Custodian, the Borrower will have no right to modify or
alter the terms of the Contract and the Borrower will have no obligation or
right to repossess the Contract or substitute another Contract, except as
provided in the Custodial Agreement.

                  11.15 Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the
Lender provided by this Loan Agreement and by law, the Lender shall have the
right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly
waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any
amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply
against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or
claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or
contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Lender or any
Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. The
Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and
application made by the Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

                 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BORROWER
                           IN RESPECT OF THE CONTRACTS

                  As to each Contract included in the Borrowing Base on a
Funding Date (and the related Equipment), the Borrower shall be deemed to make
the following representations and warranties to the Lender on and as of such
Funding Date and at all times thereafter while such Contract is pledged to the
Lender hereunder:

                  (i) Such Contract and all accompanying documents are complete
         and authentic and all signatures thereon are genuine.

                  (ii) Such Contract arose from a bona fide lease or installment
         sale or loan to an Eligible Obligor, complying with all applicable
         state and Federal laws and regulations, to Persons having the legal
         capacity to contract and is not subject to any defense, set-off or
         counterclaim. "Eligible Obligor" means, at any time, an Obligor which
         (1) is currently not more than 60 days delinquent in making a payment;
         (2) is not an Affiliate of the Borrower; (3) is located in the United
         States; and (4) is not an agency, a department, an instrumentality or a
         political subdivision of the United States or of any state or local
         government.

                  (iii) All amounts represented to be payable under such
         Contract are, in fact, payable in accordance with the provisions of
         such Contract, the first scheduled monthly payment then due and owing
         or a down payment has been made with respect to such Contract and no
         payments under such Contract are more than 60 days past due.

                  (iv) To the best of the Borrower's knowledge, all property
         subject to any Lien given in connection with such Contract is not
         subject to any encumbrance, except for Liens released simultaneously
         with the grant of the Lien in favor of the Lender hereunder in such
         Contract.

                  (v) The Borrower held good and indefeasible title to, and was
         the sole owner of, the Collateral, and such Collateral is not subject
         to any Lien except for Liens released simultaneously with the
         Borrower's pledge of Collateral made herein.

                  (vi) Such Contract conforms to the description thereof as set
         forth on the related Contract Schedule, and each Contract, other than
         an FMV Lease, is a financing lease intended to create a security
         interest in accordance with Section 1-201(37) of the Uniform Commercial
         Code or a security agreement creating a valid security interest under
         the Uniform Commercial Code.

                  (vii) Such Contract has not been declared ineligible, rejected
         or refused as unacceptable for inclusion under (A) the First Amended
         and Restated Loan Agreement,
<PAGE>   50
      amended and restated as of March 28, 1995, between the Borrower, the banks
      signatory thereto and NatWest Bank N.A., as agent, as amended from time to
      time, (B) the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of July 27, 1995,
      between the Borrower and Union Bank of Switzerland, New York Branch, as
      amended from time to time, (C) the Amended and Restated Interim Loan and
      Security Agreement, dated as of September 13, 1994, between the Borrower
      and Prudential Securities Realty Funding Corporation, as amended from time
      to time, or (D) any other securitization or warehouse loan agreement
      entered into by the Borrower, (other than by reason of concentration
      limits); and such Contract, if purchased by the Borrower from another
      lender, was not purchased because such Contract was in default to such
      other lender.

            (viii) All information in respect of such Contract set forth in the
      Contract Schedule is true and correct.

            (ix) (A) Such Contract contains provisions requiring the Obligor to
      assume all risk of loss or malfunction of the related Equipment and to
      maintain appropriate liability insurance with respect thereto, and making

      required to be made thereunder, without any right of set-off for any
      reason whatsoever, subject only to the Obligor's right of quiet enjoyment,
      (B) such Contract may not be terminated or prepaid unless the amount
      required to be paid by or on behalf of an Obligor in respect of such
      prepayment is equal to or in excess of the Discounted Present Value of
      such Contract plus accrued interest, (C) such Contract does not provide
      for the substitution, exchange or addition of any other items of Equipment
      pursuant to such Contract that would result in any reduction or extension
      of payments due under such Contract, (D) the rights with respect to such
      Contract are assignable by the Borrower without the consent of any Person
      and (E) such Contract enables the Borrower to (subject to any applicable
      grace, cure and notice periods) declare all payments thereunder to be
      immediately due and payable if the Obligor is in default of such Contract.

            (x) To the best of the Borrower's knowledge after due inquiry, all
      requirements of applicable Federal, state and local laws, and regulations
      thereunder, including, without limitation, usury laws, if any, in respect
      of such Contract have been complied with in all material respects.

            (xi) To the best of the Borrower's knowledge after due inquiry, such
      Contract represents the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
      Obligor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy,
      insolvency and other similar laws (including, but not limited to,
      principles of equity) affecting the rights of creditors generally.

            (xii) No instrument of release or waiver has been executed in
      connection with such Contract, and no Obligor in respect of such Contract
      has been released from its obligations thereunder, in whole or in part.

<PAGE>   51
            (xiii) Such Contract has not been amended after the date on which
      such Contract is listed on the Contract Schedule and pledged to the Lender
      hereunder except with the prior written approval of the Lender.

            (xiv) Such Contract is not subject to any right of rescission,
      set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and, to
      the best of Borrower's knowledge, no such right of rescission, set-off,
      counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto.

            (xv) There is no proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best
      of Borrower's knowledge after due inquiry, threatened, before any court,
      regulatory body, administrative agency, or other tribunal or governmental
      instrumentality (A) asserting the invalidity of such Contract, (B)
      asserting the bankruptcy or insolvency of an Obligor, (C) seeking to
      prevent payment and performance of such Contract or (D) seeking any
      determination or ruling that might materially and adversely affect the
      validity or enforceability of such Contract.

            (xvi) The Borrower has duly fulfilled all obligations on its part to
      be fulfilled under or in connection with such Contract and has done
      nothing to impair the rights of the Lender in such Contract or payments
      with respect thereto.

            (xvii) There is no monetary default, breach, violation or event of
      acceleration existing under such Contract, and no event has occurred
      which, with the passage of time or with notice, or both, would constitute

      will cause a prepayment of Loans made in respect of such Contract pursuant
      to this Loan Agreement; there is no non-monetary default, breach,
      violation or event of acceleration existing under such Contract, and no

      default, breach, violation or event of acceleration in respect of such
      Contract; and no payment (or portion thereof) under such Contract has been
      written off by the Borrower as uncollectible.

            (xviii) All parties to such Contract had legal capacity to execute
      such Contract and such Contract has been duly and properly executed by
      such parties.

            (xix) Such Contract was not selected by the Borrower on any basis
      intended to adversely affect the value of the Lender's Lien therein.

            (xx) Such Contract was not originated in, nor is it subject to the

      pledge, transfer or assignment of such Contract under this Loan Agreement,
      including any sale in accordance with this Loan Agreement.

            (xxi) Immediately after the pledge, assignment and transfer to the

      Schedule "Secured Party's Original" other than the original Equipment
      Schedule delivered to the Custodian, (iv) each Obligor Loan Agreement has
      been stamped with a statement to the effect that no security interest in a
      Equipment Schedule may be created through the transfer or possession of
      any counterpart of the original Equipment Schedule other than that
      Equipment Schedule marked "Secured Party's Original" and a certified copy
      of the Obligor Loan Agreement, and (v) if any promissory note or
      promissory notes were executed in connection with the origination of such
      Equipment Loan or otherwise, such original promissory note or promissory
      notes have been delivered to the Custodian.

            (xxvii) The Borrower's computer records have been marked to indicate
      that such Contract has been pledged, assigned and transferred to the
      Lender pursuant to this Loan Agreement.

            (xxviii) All insurance policies required to be maintained by such
      Contract are in full force and effect and such insurance policies are of a
      type customary for the Equipment covered thereby.

            (xxix) The credit standing of the related Obligor of the Equipment
      subject to such Contract was approved by the Borrower using its customary
      practices and procedures. To the best of the Borrower's knowledge, unless
      the Borrower has notified the Lender in writing, the Obligor is not and
      has never been insolvent or the subject of any bankruptcy or insolvency
      proceeding and the Borrower has no knowledge of any circumstance or
      condition with respect to such Contract, such Equipment or the Obligor's
      credit standing that could reasonably be expected to cause the Lender to
      regard such Contract as an unacceptable security, cause such Contract to
      become delinquent or adversely affect the value or marketability of such
      Contract.

            (xxx) The Equipment subject to such Contract was properly delivered
      to the Obligor in good repair, without defects and in satisfactory order
      and, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, is in proper working order as of
      the date on which such Contract was pledged to the Lender and listed on
      the Contract Schedule.

            (xxxi) The Exposure does not exceed the lesser of (x) 30% of the
      value of the collateral securing such Contract, or (y) $500,000.

            (xxxii) The Contract was originated within twelve (12) calendar
      months from the date such Contract was first included in the Borrowing
      Base.

            (xxxiii) The Obligor in respect of such Contract is currently
      operating and carrying on its business (not preparing to operate and carry
      on its business).

            FOR VALUE RECEIVED, DVI FINANCIAL SERVICES INC., a Delaware
corporation (the "Borrower"), hereby promises to pay to the order of LEHMAN
COMMERCIAL PAPER INC. (the "Lender"), at the principal office of the Lender at 3
World Financial Center, 200 Vesey Street, New York, New York 10285, in lawful
money of the United States, and in immediately available funds, the principal
sum of ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS ($100,000,000) (or such lesser amount as
shall equal the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans made by the
Lender to the Borrower under the Loan Agreement), on the dates and in the
principal amounts provided in the Loan Agreement, and to pay interest on the
unpaid principal amount of each such Loan, at such office, in like money and
funds, for the period commencing on the date of such Loan until such Loan shall
be paid in full, at the rates per annum and on the dates provided in the Loan
Agreement.

            The date, amount and interest rate of each Loan made by the Lender
to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof,
shall be recorded by the Lender on its books and, prior to any transfer of this
Note, endorsed by the Lender on the schedule attached hereto or any continuation
thereof; provided, that the failure of the Lender to make any such recordation
or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower to make a
payment when due of any amount owing under the Loan Agreement or hereunder in
respect of the Loans made by the Lender.

            This Note is the Note referred to in the Loan and Security Agreement
dated as of September 6, 1996 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified
and in effect from time to time, the "Loan Agreement") between the Borrower and
the Lender, and evidences Loans made by the Lender thereunder. Terms used but
not defined in this Note have the respective meanings assigned to them in the

            The Borrower agrees to pay all the Lender's costs of collection and
enforcement (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements of Lender's
counsel) in respect of this Note when incurred, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees through appellate proceedings.

            Notwithstanding the pledge of the Collateral, the Borrower hereby
acknowledges, admits and agrees that the Borrower's obligations under this Note
are recourse obligations of the Borrower to which the Borrower pledges its full
faith and credit.

waive diligence, presentment, protest and demand and also notice of protest,
demand, dishonor and nonpayments of this Note, (b) expressly agree that this

be extended from time to time, and consent to the acceptance of further

will not be necessary for the Lender, in order to enforce payment of this Note,
to first institute or exhaust the Lender's remedies against the Borrower or any
other party liable hereon or against any Collateral for this Note. No extension
of time for the payment of this Note, or any installment hereof, made by
agreement by the Lender with any person now or hereafter liable for the payment
of this Note, shall affect the liability under this Note of the Borrower, even
if the Borrower is not a party to such agreement; provided, however, that the
Lender and the Borrower, by written agreement between them, may affect the
liability of the Borrower.

            Any reference herein to the Lender shall be deemed to include and
apply to every subsequent holder of this Note. Reference is made to the Loan
Agreement for provisions concerning optional and mandatory prepayments,

                        [FORM OF GUARANTEE OF DVI, INC.]


                             GUARANTEE OF DVI, INC.

            Guarantee, dated as of September 6, 1996, by DVI, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the "Guarantor") in favor of LEHMAN COMMERCIAL PAPER INC. (the
"Lender").

                                     RECITAL

            WHEREAS, pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of
September 6, 1996 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to
time, the ("Loan Agreement"; capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meaning given them in the Loan Agreement) between DVI
Financial Services Inc., (the "Borrower"), and the Lender, the Lender has agreed
to consider making loans to the Borrower upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth therein, to be evidenced by the Note issued by the Borrower
thereunder. It is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Lender to make
its loans to the Borrower under the Loan Agreement that the Guarantor shall have
executed and delivered this Guarantee to the Lender.

            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and to induce the
Lender to make its loans to the Borrower under the Loan Agreement, the Guarantor
hereby agrees with the Lender as follows:

            1. Guarantee. To induce the Lender to enter into the Loan Agreement,
with the Borrower, the Guarantor unconditionally guarantees to the Lender, its
successors, endorsees, and permitted assigns, the prompt payment when due of all
present and future obligations and liabilities of all kinds of the Borrower to
the Lender arising out of the Loan Agreement (the "Obligations").

            2. Absolute Guarantee. The Guarantor's obligations under this
Guarantee shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity, or
enforceability of the Obligations or of any instrument evidencing the
Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or
extent of any collateral for the Obligations, or by any other circumstances
relating to the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a discharge of or
defense to this Guarantee. The Lender makes no representation or warranty to the
Guarantor regarding such matters, and has no duty or responsibility to disclose
to the Guarantor any circumstances that may now or hereafter affect such
matters. The Lender shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the
Obligations if the Borrower becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization, or
similar proceeding, and the failure of the Lender so to file shall not affect
the Guarantor's obligations hereunder. If any payment by the Borrower to the
<PAGE>   62
Lender on account of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned
for any reason whatsoever, the Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder for such
Obligations as if such payment had not been made. The Guarantor's obligations
under this Guarantee constitute a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

            3. Consents, Waivers, and Renewals. The Lender may at any time and
from time to time, either before or after the maturity thereof, without notice
to or further consent of the Guarantor, extend the time of payment of, exchange,
or surrender any collateral for, or renew, any of the Obligations, and may also
make any agreement with the Borrower or with any other individual or entity
liable on any of the Obligations, or interested therein, for the extension,
renewal, payment, compromise, discharge, or release thereof, in whole or in
part, or for any modification of the terms thereof or of any agreement between
the Lender and the Borrower or any such other individual or entity, without
impairing or affecting this Guarantee. The Lender may seek payment of any of the
Obligations from the Guarantor, whether or not the Lender shall have resorted to
any collateral for the Obligations or shall have proceeded against the Borrower
or any other obligor principally or secondarily obligated for any of the
Obligations.

            4. Expenses. The Guarantor shall pay on demand all out-of-pocket
expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Lender's counsel)
incurred in the enforcement or protection of the rights of the Lender under this
Guarantee, and any collateral for the Obligations shall secure such payment;
provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be liable for any expenses of
the Lender if no payment under this Guarantee is due.

            5. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by
the Guarantor hereunder, or any setoff or application of funds of the Guarantor
by the Lender, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of
the rights of the Lender against the Borrower or against any collateral security
or guarantee or right of offset held by the Lender for the payment of the
Obligations, nor shall the Guarantor seek any reimbursement from the Borrower in
respect of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to
the Lender by the Borrower on account of the Obligations are paid in full and
the Loan Agreement is terminated. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor
on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations
shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in
trust for the Lender, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall,
forthwith upon receipt by the Guarantor, be turned over to the Lender in the
exact form received by the Guarantor (duly endorsed by the Guarantor to the
Lender, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or
unmatured, in such order as the Lender may determine.

            6. Continuing Guarantee. This Guarantee is absolute, unconditional,
and irrevocable and shall remain in full force and effect and be binding upon
the Guarantor and its successors and permitted assigns until all of the
Obligations have been satisfied in full. If any present or future Obligations
are guaranteed by individuals or entities in addition to the Guarantor, the
death, release, or discharge, in whole or part of the bankruptcy, liquidation,


                                       -2-
<PAGE>   63
termination, or dissolution of one or more of them shall not discharge or affect
the liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder.

            7. No Waiver; Cumulative Rights. No failure on the part of the
Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, or power
under this Guarantee shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise by the Lender of any right, remedy, or power hereunder preclude
any other or future exercise of any right, remedy, or power. Each and every
right, remedy, and power hereby granted to the Lender or allowed it by law or
other agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be
exercised by the Lender from time to time.

            8. Waiver of Notice. Except as required otherwise herein, the
Guarantor waives notice of the acceptance of this Guarantee, presentment to or
demand of payment from anyone liable for any of the Obligations, notice of
dishonor or non-payment, protest, diligence, suit, notice of any sale of any
collateral for the Obligations, notice of the taking of any action by the Lender
against the Borrower, the Guarantor, or others, and all other notices that may
otherwise be required by law.
