                           Provider of expenses for payment pursuant to clause
                           fifth of Sections 3.03(a)(i) and 3.03(a)(ii) hereof;

provided, however, that in each case the Trustee shall only be required to send
such notices and other items to the Rating Agencies to the extent that the
Trustee has itself received or has knowledge of the related information. Except
as may be specifically provided herein, the Trustee shall have no obligation to
seek to obtain any such information.

                  (l)      At least three Business Days prior to the date on
which the Servicer is required to deliver the Servicer Certificate referred to
in Section 3.04(a) above, the Series Support Provider shall report to the
Servicer, the Agent and the Trustee (in writing) the amount of all Accrued
Liabilities outstanding and unpaid as of such date (including a breakdown as to
the amounts outstanding and unpaid under each of clauses (i) and (ii) of the

"Accrued Liabilities"), together with the amount of any additional interest
accruing thereon under the Insurance and Indemnity Agreement through the next
Settlement Date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon each
such certification in preparing any reports or accountings under Section 3.04
hereof and in making distributions pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof on such
Settlement Date. In the absence of its receipt of any such certification prior
to any Settlement Date, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclude that no
amounts other than amounts drawn under the Policy or advanced pursuant to an
Insurer Advance (and remaining unreimbursed to the Series Support Provider) of
which it has knowledge are then outstanding and owing as Accrued Liabilities as
of such Settlement Date.

                  Section 3.05 Compliance With Withholding Requirements.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Series 2000-A Supplement or the
Master Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee, for and on behalf of, and at the
direction of the Servicer, shall comply with all federal withholding
requirements respecting payments (or advances thereof) to the Agent on behalf of
the Purchasers as may be applicable to instruments constituting indebtedness for
federal income tax purposes. Except as otherwise provided in the Note Purchase
Agreement, any amounts so withheld shall be treated as having been paid to the
Agent on behalf of the applicable Purchasers for all purposes of this Series
2000-A Supplement. In no event shall the consent of the Agent or any Purchasers
be required for any such withholding. The Series Support Provider shall not be
obligated to pay any additional amounts to the Owners in the event that any
taxes or related amounts are withheld or assessed from or with respect to
payments on the Series 2000-A Notes.

                  Section 3.06 Servicer Advances. No later than one Business Day
preceding each Settlement Date, if the Servicer determines that any Scheduled
Payment (or portion thereof), which was due and payable pursuant to a Series
2000-A Contract during the related Collection Period was not received by such
date, the Servicer may make a Servicer Advance in an amount up to the amount of
such delinquent Scheduled Payment (or portion thereof), to the extent that in
its sole discretion it determines it can recoup such amount from subsequent
Collections under the related Series 2000-A Contract. The Servicer shall remit
any Servicer Advances to the Series 2000-A Facility Account for application in
accordance with the terms of Section 3.03.

Acknowledgements.

                           security interest is validly granted, but may not be

                           the financing statements required hereunder, no

                           notice to or filing with, any governmental authority
                           or regulatory body is required for the due execution,
                           delivery and performance by the Obligor and the

                           filings as have already been obtained, taken or made.

                  (v)      Accuracy of Information. All information heretofore
                           furnished in writing by the Obligor or the Obligors'
                           Agent to the Trustee, the Series Support Provider or
                           to the Agent for purposes of or in connection with
                           this Agreement, the Master Facility Agreement and
                           each Series 2000-A Related Document to which it is a
                           party or any Pledge is true, accurate and complete in
                           every material respect on the date such information
                           is stated or certified.

                  (vi)     Names. In the past two years, none of the Obligor nor
                           the Obligors' Agent has used any corporate names,
                           trade names or assumed names other than the name in
                           which it has executed this Agreement.

                  (vii)    No Adverse Selection. The Series 2000-A Contracts
                           have been, and will be, selected by the Obligors'
                           Agent in a manner that is not adverse to the
                           interests of the Trustee, the Series 2000-A
                           Noteholders or the Series Support Provider.

                  (viii)   Eligibility. Each Series 2000-A Contract being

                           occurred and is continuing, nor does any situation
                           exist which, with the giving of notice and/or the
                           passage of time, would result in the occurrence of a
                           Series Event of Default.

                  (b)      The Obligor, the Obligors' Agent, Marlin and the
Servicer do hereby covenant, acknowledge and agree that:

                           as the Trustee, pursuant to Section 8.01 of the

                           medical or life insurance or other death benefits to
                           any person other than pursuant to the "Marlin Leasing
                           Corp. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan" (the "401 (k)
                           Plan"). Except with respect to the 401(k) Plan,
                           Marlin, does not currently maintain, have an
                           obligation to contribute to or pay withdrawal
                           liability to, or have any other obligation with
                           respect to, any "pension plan" (within the meaning of
                           section 3(2) of ERISA) or any multiemployer plan
                           (within the meaning of section 3(37) of ERISA). For
                           purposes hereof, all references to "ERISA" shall be
                           deemed to refer to the Employee Retirement Income
                           Security Act of 1974 (and any sections of the Code),
                           as now in effect and as it may hereafter be amended
                           or modified, and all regulations promulgated
                           thereunder and all references to "Marlin" in this
                           paragraph (xix) shall be deemed to refer to Marlin
                           and all other entities with which Marlin is
                           affiliated within the meaning of Section 414(b) and
                           415(h) of the Code, as amended by ERISA, and Sections
                           210(c) and 4001(a)(2) of ERISA.

                  (xx)     Substitute Contracts. Any Substitute Contract
                           delivered to the Series 2000-A Trust Estate shall, if
                           delivered during the Amortization Period, in addition
                           to being an Eligible Contract, have substantially
                           similar characteristics as the Replaced Contract.

                  (xxi)    Equipment Filings. If, at any time during the term of
                           this facility, Marlin or any Obligor or the Obligors'
                           Agent becomes aware that the aggregate Contract
                           Principal Balance for all Series 2000-A Contracts
                           having Users located in any one state exceeds 3% of
                           the then aggregate Contract Principal Balance for all
                           Series 2000-A Contracts, the Obligor shall, if
                           appropriate Equipment Filings have not been made in
                           such state and/or the state of incorporation of such
                           Obligor if required by the UCC, within ten Business
                           Days of so becoming aware, cause UCC-1 financing
                           statements naming Marlin as debtor/seller and MLR IV
                           LLC as secured party/buyer and naming MLR IV LLC as
                           debtor and the Trustee as secured party to be filed
                           with the appropriate registry, sufficient in form to
                           perfect the Trustee's security interest in the
                           Equipment located in such state (the filing of any
                           such UCC-1 financing statement being an "Equipment
                           Filing"). At the time of any such Equipment Filing
                           the Obligor shall also cause to be delivered to the
                           Trustee, the Agent, the Series Support Provider and
                           each Rating Agency an opinion of counsel to the
                           effect that such Equipment

                                       40

<PAGE>

                           Filing is in form sufficient to perfect such security
                           interest in the related Equipment.

                  (xxii)   Amendment to Master Transfer Agreement. For so long
                           as any Series Secured Obligations remain outstanding
                           with respect to this Series 2000-A Supplement, the
                           Obligor, the Obligors' Agent and Marlin hereby agree
                           that they will not consent to any agreement pursuant
                           to Section 7.05 of the Master Transfer Agreement or
                           consent to any amendment to the Master Transfer
                           Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Master
                           Transfer Agreement without the prior written consent
                           of the Agent and the Series Support Provider, such
                           consent not to be unreasonably withheld, the
                           determination as to whether such consent shall be
                           given shall be made promptly upon request therefor.

                  (c)      The Obligor hereby makes each of the representations,
warranties and covenants set forth in Section 2.01(a) of the Master Agreement to
the Trustee, the Series 2000-A Noteholders, the Series Support Provider and the
Agent on which representations, warranties and covenants the Trustee relies in
accepting the Series 2000-A Trust Estate in trust, and on which the Series
2000-A Noteholders have relied in agreeing to purchase the Series 2000-A Notes.
Such representations, warranties and covenants are deemed to be made and
affirmed on the Series Closing Date, and shall survive the date of the making or
remaking of such representations and warranties.

                  Section 3.08 Hedging Arrangements.

                  (a)      Marlin shall provide for one or more Hedge
Agreement(s) with respect to the Series 2000-A Trust Estate with an aggregate
notional balance at least $2,000,000 greater than the Outstanding Net Investment
and a future aggregate notional balance at least equal to the future principal
portion of the Net Investment (calculated at a zero loss and zero prepayment
assumption). Each Hedge Agreement shall:

                  (i)      provide for payments on each Settlement Date (x)
                           which, in the case of a Cap Agreement, are made only
                           by the Hedge Counterparty to the Trustee, in an
                           amount equal to the current notional amount of the
                           Hedge Agreement applied to the excess, if any, of the
                           Base LIBO Rate over the Hedge Rate with respect
                           thereto, and (y) in the case of a Swap Agreement, are
                           to be made (1) by the Hedge Counterparty to the
                           Trustee in an amount equal to the current notional
                           amount of the Swap Agreement applied to the Base LIBO
                           Rate, and (2) by the Trustee to the Hedge
                           Counterparty in an amount equal to such notional
                           amount applied to the Hedge Rate with respect thereto
                           (which amounts may be netted, with the net amount
                           paid by one party to the other);

                  (ii)     be satisfactory in form and substance to the Series
                           Support Provider and the Agent;

                                       41

<PAGE>

                  (iii)    provide that all payments made by the Hedge
                           Counterparty thereunder shall be made directly into
                           the Series 2000-A Facility Account;

                  (iv)     provide for termination at the option of the Trustee
                           upon release of the related Series 2000-A Contracts
                           from the Lien of the Indenture;

                  (v)      require the Hedge Counterparty to find a replacement
                           Hedge Counterparty to execute a new Hedge Agreement
                           satisfactory to the Series Support Provider and the
                           Agent within 10 Business Days of any downgrade of the
                           ratings of the Hedge Counterparty below the levels
                           set forth in the definition of "Hedge Counterparty",
                           which replacement must meet the qualifications set
                           forth in the definition of "Hedge Counterparty";

                  (vi)     be between the related Hedge Counterparty and the
                           Trustee;

                  (vii)    if such Hedge Agreement is a Cap Agreement, be
                           substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto; and

                  (viii)   if such Hedge Agreement is a Swap Agreement, be
                           substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto.

                  (b)      In the event that a Hedge Counterparty no longer
satisfies the ratings requirement specified in the definition thereof and does
not itself find a replacement which has executed a Hedge Agreement as required
under clause (v) of Section 3.08(a), Marlin shall be required, within 15
Business Days following the failure of such Hedge Counterparty to satisfy such
ratings requirement, to provide a substitute Person satisfying the requirements
of the definition of Hedge Counterparty to be substituted as the Hedge
Counterparty under the applicable Hedge Agreement(s) or to enter into a new
Hedge Agreement satisfactory to the Series Support Provider and the Agent.

                  (c)      The Trustee shall not designate an "Early Termination
Date" under any Hedge Agreement following any "Event of Default" or "Termination
Event" thereunder without the prior written consent of the Series Controlling
Party, and must designate such an "Early Termination Event" at the Series
Controlling Party direction if the circumstances would permit the Trustee to
then make such a designation.

                  (d)      The Trustee shall promptly forward to the Series
Controlling Party a copy of any notice received from a Hedge Counterparty
relating to any downgrade, withdrawal or suspension of such Hedge Counterparty's
(or such Hedge Counterparty's guarantor's) ratings.

                  (e)      The Trustee shall not execute any assignment,
assumption, credit support annex, extension, amendment, modification, waiver,
confirmation, designation of "Reference Market Makers," schedule or other
agreement in connection with any Hedge Agreement without first obtaining the
prior written consent of the Series Controlling Party. A copy of any such item
received by the Trustee, together with a copy of any other notice or
communication received by the Trustee in connection with any Hedge Agreement
shall be forwarded to the Series Controlling Party promptly on receipt. Notice
of (i) any assignment or transfer by a Hedge Counterparty of any of its rights
or obligations under any Hedge Agreement (ii) any assumption,

                                       42

amendment, extension, modification, waiver or event of default under any Hedge
Agreement, and (iii) the Hedge Counterparties entering into any new Hedge
Agreement shall be given by the Trustee to each Rating Agency.

                  Section 3.09 Lockbox Account.

                  (a)      The Servicer shall establish a Lockbox Account
identified as "the Lockbox Account for Marlin Master Facility Agreement, in
trust for the Series 2000-A Secured Parties" on behalf of, and in the name of,
MLR IV LLC, which shall be an Eligible Bank Account. The Servicer shall direct
each User to make all payments with respect to the Series 2000-A Contracts which
are due after the related Pledge Date directly to the Lockbox Account. Any
notice delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 3.09 after
the date hereof shall provide that (i) it is irrevocable except by, or a notice
accompanied by written consent of, the Series Controlling Party and (ii) the
User will only be discharged from its obligations under the Series 2000-A
Contract to the extent payments are sent to the Lockbox Account.

                  (b)      The Servicer shall issue and maintain a standing
instruction to the Lockbox Bank under the Lockbox Agreement to the effect that
(x) on each Business Day the Lockbox Bank shall (i) cause all items received in
the post-office box related to the Lockbox Account since the preceding Business
Day relating to the Series 2000-A Contracts to be deposited into the Lockbox
Account, and (ii) remit by electronic funds transfer, into the Series 2000-A
Facility Account all available funds on deposit in the Lockbox Account and (y)
if the Lockbox Bank receives a written notice from the Series Controlling Party
stating that a Series Event of Default has occurred hereunder, the Lockbox Bank
shall thereafter follow such directions as it may thereafter receive from the
Series Controlling Party with respect to Collections on the Series 2000-A
Contracts, and shall not thereafter follow any directions of the Servicer
(unless otherwise directed by the Series Controlling Party). Such standing
instruction shall be evidenced by an agreement with the Lockbox Bank in form and
substance acceptable to the Series Controlling Party. The Servicer will transfer
any payments it receives directly rather than by payment to the Lockbox Account
by or on behalf of the Users pursuant to the Contracts and all Recoveries in
respect thereof to the Series 2000-A Facility Account immediately upon receipt
thereof.

                  (c)      Neither the Servicer, any Obligor nor any Affiliate
thereof shall direct or shall have directed any payments to be remitted to the
Lockbox Account unless such payments relate to the Series 2000-A Contracts, or
to Contracts relating to other Series of Notes assigned to Group B.

                  Section 3.10 The Policy; Accrued Liabilities.

                  (a)      If, on any Determination Date, the Trustee determines
(based solely on information set forth in the related Servicer's Certificate)
that a Deficiency Amount exists in an amount greater than zero, the Trustee
shall promptly (and, in any event, not later than the date that is two (2)
Business Days prior to the related Settlement Date) notify the Series Support
Provider in writing of such Deficiency Amount. Unless the Trustee shall have
received written notice from the Series Support Provider to the effect that the
Series Support Provider intends to make an Insurer Advance in respect of such
Deficiency Amount on the related Settlement Date,

                                       43

<PAGE>

the Trustee shall deliver to the Series Support Party a notice substantially in
the form of Exhibit A to the Policy (the "Notice for Payment") as a claim for an
Insured Amount in an amount equal to such Deficiency Amount. Such Notice for
Payment shall be delivered in accordance with the terms of the Policy no later
than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second (2nd) Business Day
immediately preceding such Settlement Date.

                  (b)      The Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2000-A
Secured Parties, shall establish and maintain an account (the "Series 2000-A
Insurance Account") as a segregated trust account in the Trustee's corporate
trust department, identified as the "Insurance Account for Marlin Master
Financing Facility Agreement, in trust for the Series 2000-A Secured Parties."
The Trustee shall make or permit withdrawals from the Series 2000-A Facility
Account only as provided in this Series 2000-A Supplement. Upon receipt of an
Insured Amount or Insurer Advance from the Series Support Provider on behalf of
the Owners, the Trustee shall deposit such amounts into the Series 2000-A
Insurance Account. On each Settlement Date, the Trustee shall distribute the
Deficiency Amount, if any, from amounts on deposit in the Series 2000-A
Insurance Account to the Owners on a pro rata basis in payment of such
Deficiency Amount.

                  (c)      The Trustee (i) shall be deemed to receive any
Insured Amount or Insurer Advance from the Series Support Provider as
attorney-in-fact on behalf of each Owner and (ii) shall distribute such Insured
Amount or Insurer Advance to such Owner as set forth in subsection (b) above.
Insured Amounts from proceeds of the Policy and Insurer Advances disbursed by
the Trustee shall not be considered payment by MLR IV LLC with respect to the
Owners, nor shall such disbursement of such Insured Amounts or Insurer Advances
discharge the obligations of MLR IV LLC with respect to the amounts thereof. The
Series Support Provider shall become subrogee and the deemed assignee of such
Owners, of an amount of Series 2000-A Notes equal to the amount of Insured
Amounts paid or Insurer Advances made by the Series Support Provider. The
Trustee hereby agrees, and each Owner, by its acceptance of its Series 2000-A
Note, hereby agrees, for the benefit of the Series Support Provider that the
Trustee shall recognize that to the extent the Series Support Provider makes
payments of Insured Amounts or Insurer Advances, either directly or indirectly
(as by paying through the Trustee), to the Owners, the Series Support Provider
will be subrogated to the rights of the Owners to the extent of such payments.

                  (d)      Any payment of Accrued Liabilities to the Series
Support Provider pursuant to Section 3.03 (b) shall be deemed to be applied
first to amounts owing under clause (iii), if any, second under clause (ii), if
any, and then under clause (i), of the definition of Accrued Liabilities.

                  Section 3.11 Option to Purchase in Lieu of Draw.

                  (a)      The Owners hereby grant to the Series Support
Provider (or its designee, and each reference in this Section 3.11(a) to the
Series Support Provider shall also be deemed to be a reference to such designee,
as the context may require) the option (the "Non-Draw Option"), in lieu of
making a payment under the Policy on the presentation of the Notice for Payment
under the Policy pursuant to section 3.10(a), to purchase all (but not less than
all) of the Owners' rights and title to, and interest in, such Series 2000-A
Notes, at a price (the "Non-Draw Option Price") equal to the greater of (i)
amount which would have been payable by the Series Support

                                       44

<PAGE>

Provider in connection with a draw under the Policy in respect of such Series
2000-A Notes and (ii) the Series 2000-A Note Balance, all accrued interest
thereon, but only to the extent of Capped Monthly Interest. Payment made by the
Series Support Provider of the Non-Draw Option Price shall be made in
immediately available funds by 12:00 p.m. New York City time on the later of (a)
the third Business Day following receipt by the Series Support Provider, at its
designated offices, of a Notice for Payment pursuant to Section 3.10(a), and (b)
the date on which payment under the Policy pursuant to such Notice for Payment
would have been due in respect of the Series 2000-A Notes. All calculations
required to determine the Non-Draw Option Price, shall be made by the Trustee as
of the draw date specified in the relevant Notice for Payment under the Policy
delivered pursuant to Section 3.10(a). The Series Support Provider may exercise
the Non-Draw Option by telephone notice confirmed in writing by the Series
Support Provider to the Owner immediately thereafter.

                  (i)      Simultaneously with the payment of the Non-Draw
Option Price, the Owners shall deliver to the Series Support Provider such
transfer documents as shall be necessary pursuant to the terms hereof to assign
to the Series Support Provider the Series 2000-A Notes purchases pursuant to the
Non-Draw Option and take any and all other actions as may be required by the
terms of this 2000-A Series Supplement (including but not limited to causing to
be provided any legal opinion that may be required by the Trustee in connection
with such transfer), or otherwise, to cause a transfer of such Series 2000-A
Notes to the Series Support Provider.

                  Section 3.12 Insurer Advances.

                  The Series Support Provider shall have the right to make
Insurer Advances with respect to any Deficiency Amount or potential Deficiency
Amount hereunder. Any payment of such Insurer Advances may be made by the Series
Support Provider in its sole discretion at any time before such Deficiency
Amount is due hereunder. Any amounts paid by the Series Support Provider as
Insurance Advances shall be deposited into the Series 2000-A Insurance Account
for distribution pursuant to Section 3.10(b) hereof.

                  Section 3.13 Replacement of Series Support Provider. At any
time following a reduction or withdrawal of the claims-paying or financial
strength ratings of the Series Support Provider below "AA-" by S & P (or the
equivalent financial strength rating by any nationally recognized statistical
rating agency then rating the Series Support Provider), the Obligor shall upon
the direction of the Agent terminate the Insurance Agreement and the Policy upon
ten days' prior written notice to the Trustee and the Series Support Provider;
provided, however, that on or prior to the date such termination shall take
place (i) the Obligor has entered into a new Insurance Agreement with a
replacement insurer (a "Replacement Series Support Provider") providing for the
issuance of a replacement policy (a "Replacement Policy") on substantially
similar terms as the Policy being replaced, (ii) each Rating Agency has
confirmed in writing that such termination will not result in a reduction or
withdrawal of its rating of the Series 2000-A Notes, (iii) all Accrued
Liabilities owing to the Series Support Provider have been paid in full and (iv)
such Replacement Policy is delivered to the Trustee.

                  (a)      The Trustee shall deliver the Series 2000-A Note when
authenticated as directed in writing by the Obligor, and in accordance with
Section 5.01 of the Master Agreement.

                  (b)      The Agent on behalf of the Series 2000-A Noteholders

may, during the Revolving Period, on any Business Day, but not more frequently

extent received by the Agent from Purchasers under the Note Purchase Agreement,
representing an increase in the Series 2000-A Noteholders' investment in the
Series 2000-A Notes (each such increase in investment, an "Advance") in an

                  (c)      The Obligor shall Pledge the Pledged Property to the
Trustee to be held in trust as part of the Series 2000-A Trust Estate in
connection with the delivery of each Pledge Notice. Each Pledge Notice shall

                  (vii)    the Borrowing Base immediately prior to such Pledge
                           and the Pro Forma Borrowing Base.

                  (d)      No Advance will be funded with respect to any Series
2000-A Contract unless:

                  (i)          the Trustee has previously delivered its
                           Certification (as defined in the Collateral
                           Administration Agreement) with respect thereto, which

                                       46

<PAGE>

                           Certification shall indicate that (1) the Trustee is
                           holding the related Series 2000-A Contracts pursuant
                           to the Collateral Administration Agreement and (2)
                           there is no Deficiency (as defined in the Collateral
                           Administration Agreement) with respect to such Series
                           2000-A Contract;

                  (ii)     no Series Event of Default or event which, with the
                           giving of notice and/or the passage of time, would
                           constitute a Series Event of Default, shall have
                           occurred and be continuing;

                  (iii)    after giving effect to the proposed Advance, the Net
                           Investment shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the
                           Borrowing Base and (y) the Maximum Series Limit as of
                           such date;

                  (iv)     the representations and warranties of the Obligor
                           under the Series 2000-A Related Documents are true
                           and correct in all material respects as of the
                           related Pledge Date, unless such representation and
                           warranty speaks only as of a particular date;

                  (v)      the Termination Date has not occurred; and

                  (vi)     the Agent and the Series Support Provider shall have
                           received all such other documents, opinions and other
                           information as it shall have reasonably requested not
                           fewer than ten Business Days in advance.

                  (e)      In addition to the provisions of paragraph (b) above,
in which a pledge of additional Series 2000-A Contracts results in an increase
in the Series 2000-A Note Balance, during the Revolving Period, a Pledge of
additional Series 2000-A Contracts may also be funded from the monthly cash
flow, as set forth in clause fourteenth of Section 3.03(a)(i). In connection
with such a Pledge, the Obligor, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions
set forth in paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) above, may Pledge such additional
Series 2000-A Contracts to the Trustee to hold in trust as part of the Series
2000-A Trust Estate without receiving any additional Advance Amount from the
Purchasers, but in consideration of receiving the Advance Amount paid under
clause fourteenth of Section 3.03(a)(i) hereof, by delivering a Pledge Notice to
the Trustee, the Series Support Provider and the Agent, not less than three (3)
Business Days prior to the proposed Pledge Date (which shall be a Settlement
Date).

                  (f)      In addition to the provisions of paragraphs (b) and
(e) above, in which a Pledge of additional Series 2000-A Contracts is funded by
the Purchasers, or is made to sustain the revolving nature of the facility, the
Obligor, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in paragraphs
(c) and (d) above, may Pledge Pledged Property to the Trustee to be held in
trust as part of the Series 2000-A Trust Estate without receiving any additional
Advance Amount, by delivering a Pledge Notice to the Trustee not less than three
(3) Business Days prior to the proposed Pledge Date (which shall be a Business
Day, but need not be a Settlement Date).

                  (g)      If a Purchaser makes an Advance in accordance with
paragraph (b) above, the Agent shall remit the related Advance Amount to the
Series 2000-A Facility Account or to such other account as the Obligors' Agent
may specify in writing, in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 noon
(New York City time). The Servicer shall notify the Trustee and

                                       47

<PAGE>

the Agent and the Series Support Provider of the amount of such Advance Amount
and shall appropriately note such Advance Amount (and the increased Series
2000-A Note Balance) on the next succeeding monthly Servicer's Certificate.

                  (h)      The Agent shall and is hereby authorized to record on
the grid attached to the Series 2000-A Note (or at the Agent's option, in its
internal books and records) the date and amount of any Advance Amount paid by it
on behalf of a Purchaser, and each repayment thereof; provided, that failure to
make any such recordation on such grid or any error in such grid shall not
adversely affect the Agent's rights with respect to the full Series 2000-A Note
Balance and its right to receive interest payments in respect of the Series
2000-A Note Balance.

                  (i)      The Obligor or the Obligors' Agent may, within 180
days, but no later than 45 days, prior to the then existing Termination Date, by
written notice to the Agent and the Series Support Provider, make written
request to extend the Termination Date for an additional period of 364 days. The
Agent and the Series Support Provider shall independently make a determination,
in their sole discretion and after a full credit review, not more than 30 days
after such party receives the written notice from the Obligor or the Obligors'
Agent requesting the extension of the Termination Date prior to the then
applicable Termination Date as to whether or not such party will agree to extend
the Termination Date; provided, however, that the failure to make a timely
response to the Obligor's or the Obligors' Agent's request for extension of the
Termination Date shall be deemed to constitute a refusal to extend the
Commitment Termination Date.

                  At any time following the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Series Event of Default, the Series Controlling Party (or, in
the case of subparagraph (l) above, the Agent) may, by notice to the Obligors'
Agent, declare the occurrence of the Termination Date,

                                       51

<PAGE>

except that, in the case of any event described in subparagraph (d) above, the
Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred automatically upon the
occurrence of such event.

                  Upon the declaration or automatic occurrence of the
Termination Date, the Series 2000-A Note and all other indebtedness and
liabilities of the Obligor and the Transferor to the Series 2000-A Secured
Parties shall become immediately due and payable, without any further act or
notice by any Person. Upon any occurrence of a Series Event of Default, the
Trustee and the Series 2000-A Secured Parties shall have, in addition to all
other rights and remedies under this Agreement or otherwise, all other rights
and remedies provided under the UCC of the applicable jurisdiction and other
applicable laws, which rights shall be cumulative; provided, however, that in
the absence of material fraud on the part of the Transferor, the Obligor or the
Servicer, and so long as no Series Event of Default shall have occurred under
clause (d) above, the Series Controlling Party shall not direct the Trustee to
liquidate the Series 2000-A Trust Estate during the ninety (90) day period
immediately following the occurrence of such Series Event of Default.

                  Any Series Event of Default, once declared, or any declaration
of the Termination Date, may be rescinded by the Series Controlling Party, on
such terms and conditions as may be stipulated by the Series Controlling Party
at such time.

                  The Trustee shall promptly send a written notice to Moody's
and to Standard & Poor's of the occurrence of, and the waiver of, any Series
Event of Default, to the extent that the Trustee has actual knowledge of, or has
received notice of, any such occurrence or waiver.

                  Section 5.02 Direction by the Series Support Provider.

                  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if
a Series Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, so long as there has
been no Series Support Provider Default, the Series Support Provider shall have
the sole right (to the exclusion of the Owners) to direct the Trustee as to any
and all remedies to be sought or taken under this Series 2000-A Supplement and
the Trustee shall not exercise any such remedies unless directed by the Series
Support Provider; provided, however, that, upon the occurrence of the event set
forth in Section 5.01(l), the Agent shall have the right to so direct the
Trustee. Each Owner, by its purchase of a Series 2000-A Note, shall be deemed to
have consented to the Series Support Provider rights hereunder with respect to a
Series Event of Default. At such time as there exists and is continuing a Series
Support Provider Default the Trustee shall not be bound to continue to comply
with any term or condition of this Series 2000-A Supplement that requires the
consent of or approval or direction from the Series Support Provider.

                            PREPAYMENT AND REDEMPTION

                  Section 6.01 Mandatory Prepayment. Notwithstanding any
limitation on recourse contained in this Series 2000-A Supplement or the Master
Agreement, if on any day, any Series 2000-A Contract is discovered not to have
been an Eligible Contract on its applicable Pledge Date, then the Obligor shall,

Facility Account, the related Prepayment Amount. Upon payment in full by the
Obligors' Agent to the Servicer of the Prepayment Amount, the security interest

(i) Net Margin on Managed Assets, (ii) depreciation and amortization (to the
extent deducted in determining net operating income) and (iii) provision for
loan losses (to the extent deducted in determining net operating income) for
such period.

                  "Charge Offs" means, for any period, the sum of any payments
due and payable to Marlin or its Affiliates (determined on a consolidated basis
without duplication in accordance with GAAP) under any contract, lease or other

accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, written off the books of
Marlin or any Affiliate, as applicable, as uncollectible or (ii) has remained
unpaid for a period of 121 days or more from the original due date for such
payment.

                  "Interest Expense" shall mean, for any period, the sum, for
Marlin and its Affiliates (determined on a consolidated basis without
duplication in accordance with GAAP), of the following: (a) all interest in
respect of Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the interest component
of any payments in respect of capital lease liabilities) accrued or capitalized
during such period (whether or not actually paid during such period); excluding,
however, all such interest in respect of Indebtedness incurred for the sole
purpose of, or in connection with, the financing of lease receivables, plus (b)

         (including all notes payable and drafts accepted representing
         extensions of credit) and all obligations evidenced by bonds,
         debentures, notes or other similar instruments on which interest
         charges are customarily paid;

<PAGE>

                  (d)      net monetary liabilities of such Person under all
         Hedging Liabilities (calculated, at any time, as the aggregate amount
         (giving effect to any netting agreement) that such Person would be
         required to pay if the agreements giving rise to such Hedging
         Liabilities were terminated at such time);

                  (e)      all obligations of such Person to pay the deferred
         purchase price of property services that, in accordance with GAAP,
         would be included on the liability side of the balance sheet of such
         Person as of the date at which Indebtedness is to be determined;

         (d) or (e) secured by a Lien on property owned or being purchased by
         such Person (including indebtedness arising under conditional sales or
         other title retention agreements), whether or not such indebtedness
         shall have been assumed by such Person or is limited in recourse;
         provided, however, that in the case of any such Indebtedness which is
         by its terms non-recourse to such Person, the amount of such
         Indebtedness shall, for the purpose of this clause, be deemed to be the
         lesser of (x) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such
         Indebtedness and (y) the fair market value of the property subject to
         such Lien, as determined by such Person in good faith; and

                  (g)      all contingent liabilities of such Person in respect
         of any Indebtedness of any other Person.

for any period on lease receivables serviced by Marlin less accrued interest
expense in respect of Indebtedness incurred for the sole purpose of, or in
connection with, the financing of lease receivables serviced by Marlin.

the Series Note will be evidence of indebtedness of the Series Obligor. The
Series Obligor and the Series 2000-A Noteholder, by the acceptance of this
Series Note, agree to treat this Series Note for federal, state and local income
and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Series Obligor secured by the
Series 2000-A Trust Estate.

                  Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms and conditions
of the Series Note and the Series Supplement, the Series 2000-A Note Balance

the outstanding principal balance of this Series Note shall not exceed the
dollar amount first above written.

                  The Agent, on behalf of the Purchasers, is authorized to
record, on the schedule annexed thereto and made a part hereof or on other

amount of each Advance made by the Purchasers, each continuation thereof, the
interest rate from time to time on each Advance and the date and amount of each
payment or repayment of principal thereof. Any such recordation shall constitute
prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded, provided
that the failure of the Agent to make any such recordation (or any error in such
recordation) shall not affect the obligations of the Series Obligor hereunder or
under the Series Supplement and Master Facility Agreement in respect of this
Series Note.

                  The Master Facility Agreement and the Series Supplement
permit, with certain exceptions, the amendment thereof and the modification of
the rights and obligations of the Series Obligor, the Servicer and the Trustee
and the rights of the Series 2000-A Noteholder under the Master Facility
Agreement or the Series Supplement at any time by the Servicer, the Series
Obligor and the Trustee without, in certain cases, the consent of the Series
2000-A Noteholder, as more particularly described in the Master Facility
Agreement and the Series Supplement.

                  The transfer of this Series Note is subject to certain
restrictions set forth in the Master Facility Agreement, the Series Supplement
and the Note Purchase Agreement.

                  The Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the foregoing may
treat the person in whose name this Series Note is registered as the owner for
all purposes, and none of the foregoing shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.

                  Unless the certificate of authentication attached hereto has
been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee, by manual or facsimile signature,
this Series Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Master Facility
Agreement or the Series Supplement or be valid for any purpose.
