THE RECEIVABLES FACILITY

          SECTION 2.01. Borrowings. On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the
Lender shall make loans (“Loans”) to the Borrower secured by Pledged Assets from time to
time during the period from the Closing Date until the earlier of the Early Amortization
Commencement Date or the Facility Maturity Date. Under no circumstances shall the Lender make any
Loan if (a) the principal amount of such Loan is less than $500,000, or (b) after giving effect to
the Borrowing of such Loan, either (i) an Early Amortization Event, an event that but for notice or
lapse of time or both would constitute an Early Amortization Event, an Event of Default or an
Unmatured Event or Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) the aggregate Facility Amount
hereunder would exceed the Capital Limit.

          SECTION 2.02. The Initial Borrowing and Subsequent Borrowings. (a) Until the
occurrence of the earlier of the Early Amortization Commencement Date and the Facility Maturity
Date, the Lender will make Loans on any Business Day at the request of the Borrower, with an
aggregate principal balance of Loans Outstanding not to exceed the Maximum Facility Amount subject
to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Sections 2.01 and 2.02 and
subject to the provisions of Article III hereof.

          (b) (i) Each Borrowing shall be made on at least two (2) Business Days’ irrevocable written
notice from the Borrower to the Agent (each such written notice, a “Notice of Borrowing”),
provided that such Notice of Borrowing is received by the Agent no later than

32

 

1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day of receipt. Any Notice of Borrowing
received after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed received on the following Business
Day. Each such Notice of Borrowing shall specify (A) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing,
(B) the requested date of such Borrowing, (C) the requested Fixed Period(s) for such Borrowing and
the allocations of Loans to each such requested Fixed Period and (D) the Eligible Receivables to be
Pledged in connection with such Borrowing (and upon such Borrowing, such Receivables shall be
Pledged Receivables hereunder). The Agent shall notify the Borrower as to whether the duration of
the Fixed Period(s) described in such Notice of Borrowing is acceptable or, if not acceptable, the
Agent shall advise the Borrower of such Fixed Period(s) as may be acceptable. On the date of each
Borrowing, the Lender shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in
Article III, make available to the Borrower on the applicable Borrowing Date, no later than
3:00 p.m. (New York City time), in same day funds, the amount of such Borrowing (net of amounts
payable to or for the benefit of the Lender), by payment into the account which the Borrower has
designated to the Agent in writing.

     (ii) Each Notice of Borrowing delivered to the Agent pursuant to this
Section 2.02(b) shall be accompanied by a copy of the Notice of Pledge (and the
Receivables Schedule attached thereto), which was sent to the Custodian pursuant to the
terms of the Custodial Agreement in connection with the pledge of Eligible Receivables to be
made in connection therewith.

          (c) In addition to the Loans requested pursuant to Section 2.02(b), the Agent may
request Loans on behalf of the Borrower solely to the extent necessary to pay (i) any shortfalls in
amounts available in the Collection Account to pay all amounts then due and owing on any Remittance
Date and described in Section 2.06(a)(I)(i) through (xi) or
Section 2.06(a)(II), as applicable, and actually paid by the Agent on behalf of the
Borrower to the Persons described in such Sections and (ii) the amount of any costs and expenses
incurred by the Agent in connection with the enforcement, defense or preservation of any rights of
the Agent with respect to the Pledged Assets. Upon the request of Borrower, the Partnership may
advance from its own funds a Partnership Advance with respect to any Pledged Receivable if the
Partnership, in its sole discretion, determines that eventual repayment of such Partnership Advance
is likely to be recovered from Collections from or on behalf of the related Obligor,
provided, however, that in no event shall the Partnership make a Partnership
Advance with respect to a Contract related to a Defaulted Receivable.

          (d) Each Loan shall bear interest at the applicable Yield Rate for such Loan.

          (e) Subject to Section 2.16 and the other terms, conditions, provisions and
limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay or prepay and reborrow Loans, on and
after the Closing Date and prior to the earlier to occur of the Facility Maturity Date and the
Early Amortization Commencement Date.

          (f) Determinations by the Lender of the existence of any CP Disruption Event (any such
determination to be communicated to the Borrower by written notice from the Agent promptly after
the Agent learns of such event), or of the effect of any CP Disruption Event on its making or
maintaining Loans at the CP Rate, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

33

 

          SECTION 2.03. Facility Maturity Date. Any Loans outstanding on the Facility Maturity
Date shall mature on such date. On the Facility Maturity Date, the outstanding principal balance
of all outstanding Loans, if any, and all Yield and all Fees accrued thereon and all other
Obligations shall be immediately due and payable (and the Borrower shall pay all such amounts
immediately).

          SECTION 2.04. Selection of Fixed Periods. (a) At all times until the earlier to occur
of the Early Amortization Commencement Date and the Facility Maturity Date, the Borrower shall,
subject to the Agent’s and the Lender’s approval and the limitations described below, request Fixed
Periods and allocations of a portion of the outstanding Loans to each selected Fixed Period, so
that all such outstanding Loans are at all times allocated to one or more Fixed Periods. The
requested initial Fixed Period applicable to any new Loan arising as a result of a Borrowing shall
be requested in the Notice of Borrowing, which Notice of Borrowing also shall be delivered in
connection with the applicable Subsequent Borrowing. Subject to the remaining provisions of this
Section 2.04, each CP Rollover Fixed Period shall commence on the last day of the
immediately preceding Fixed Period (the “Expiration Date”), and the duration of such CP
Rollover Fixed Period shall be such as the Borrower shall request in a Commercial Paper Remittance
Report and the Agent shall approve; provided, however, that if such Commercial
Paper Remittance Report was not received by the Agent by 12:30 p.m. (New York City time) at least
one (1) Business Day prior to such Expiration Date or if the Agent and the Borrower shall not have
mutually agreed to the applicable Fixed Periods before 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such
Expiration Date, then, such CP Rollover Fixed Period shall be one day, and the applicable Yield
Rate shall be the CP Rate plus 1.00%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Lender may cease to issue commercial paper
notes to fund and maintain Loans hereunder, and the applicable Yield Rate for all Fixed Periods in
effect at the time of such occurrence shall convert to, and for all Fixed Periods that come into
effect during the continuance of any Event of Default shall be, the Default Funding Rate. Any
Fixed Period which would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day shall be extended to
the next succeeding Business Day. Any Fixed Period which commences before the Early Amortization
Commencement Date and would otherwise end on a date occurring after the Early Amortization
Commencement Date shall end on the Early Amortization Commencement Date. On and after the Early
Amortization Commencement Date, the Agent shall have the right to allocate outstanding Loans, if
any, to Fixed Periods of such duration as shall be selected by the Agent in its sole discretion.
The Lender shall, on the first day of each Fixed Period with respect to Loans which accrue Yield at
the CP Rate, notify the Agent of the applicable Yield Rate for such Loans.

          (b) References herein to Loans which accrue Yield at the Non-CP Rate being allocated to a
Fixed Period shall mean all such Loans that are outstanding during such Fixed Period or any portion
thereof.

          (c) So long as no Event of Default or Early Amortization Event shall have occurred and be
continuing, each of the Lender and the Agent shall make reasonable efforts to allow Loans to accrue
Yield at the CP Rate; provided that neither the Lender nor the Agent shall have any
obligation to allow Loans to accrue Yield at the CP Rate upon the occurrence of a CP Disruption
Event or upon a determination by the Lender, or the Agent on its behalf, that allowing

34

 

Loans to accrue Yield at the CP Rate would materially impair its ability to issue commercial
paper notes generally or would otherwise be disadvantageous to its business generally.

          SECTION 2.05. Remittance Procedures. The Servicer, as agent for the Agent and the
Lender, shall instruct the Agent’s Bank and, if the Servicer fails to do so, the Agent may instruct
the Agent’s Bank, to apply funds on deposit in the Collection Account as described in this
Section 2.05.

          (a) Yield and Liquidation Fees. With respect to each Business Day (including any
Remittance Date), the Servicer shall maintain collected funds on deposit in the Collection Account

of the Lender (whether on such day or on a subsequent day) in an amount equal to accrued and unpaid
Yield and Fees through such day on the Loans and the amount of any accrued and unpaid Liquidation
Fees owed to the Lender on such day. On the last day of each Fixed Period, the Agent shall notify
the Servicer of the accrued and unpaid Yield for such Fixed Period and the Servicer shall (and if
the Servicer fails to do so, the Agent may) direct the Agent’s Bank to pay collected funds in
respect of accrued and unpaid Yield pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) to the Lender (or the
designee of the Lender) in respect of payment of such accrued and unpaid Yield for such Fixed
Period; provided, however, (i) in the case of any Loan accruing Yield at the CP
Rate, that the portion of such Yield attributable to the Lender Margin, and (ii) in the case of any
Loan accruing Yield at the Non-CP Rate, all such accrued and unpaid Yield, shall remain in the
Collection Account until the next Remittance Date, at which time it shall be disbursed pursuant to
Section 2.06(a)(I)(xi) or 2.06 (a)(II), as applicable. On any Business Day on
which an amount is maintained in respect of Liquidation Fees pursuant to this
Section 2.05(a), the Agent shall direct the Agent’s Bank to pay such funds to the Lender in
payment of such Liquidation Fees.

          (b) Fixed Period Loan Principal Repayment. The Servicer shall, and if the Servicer
fails to do so the Agent may, on the last day of each Fixed Period that is not a Remittance Date,
direct the Agent’s Bank to transfer collected funds held by the Agent’s Bank in the Collection
Account on such date, to pay the Agent for the account of the Lender in payment (or partial
payment) of the outstanding principal amount of all Loans allocated to such Fixed Period, in an
amount equal to the least of (i) the amount of such collected funds held in the Collection Account,
(ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans allocated to such Fixed Period or,
(iii) if no Early Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing, if lower, an amount
equal to the excess, if any, of the Facility Amount immediately prior to such distribution over the
Capital Limit (after giving effect to any Borrowing made on such date and any distributions of
amounts on deposit in the Collection Account made on such date).

          (c) Remittance Date Transfers From Collection Account. On each Remittance Date, the
Servicer shall prepare and distribute to the Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Agent’s Bank a
Monthly Remittance Report which includes distributions to be made from the Collection Account in
accordance with this Section 2.05(c). The Agent’s Bank will distribute, after approval
from the Agent (based on the Monthly Remittance Report or Agent’s written instructions, as
applicable), collected funds held by the Agent’s Bank in the Collection Account in accordance with
Section 2.06 (in excess of (i) the aggregate amounts maintained and/or paid on such
Remittance Date pursuant to Section 2.05(a) and (ii) the amounts withdrawn by the

35

 

Servicer, with respect to sales and use taxes and other similar taxes and insurance premium
payments pursuant to Section 6.06). Without the prior written consent of the Lender,
Collections on deposit in the Collection Account shall not be distributed by the Agent’s Bank other
than in accordance with this Section 2.05(c).

          If the Agent’s Bank does not receive a Monthly Remittance Report from the Servicer on any
Monthly Report Date, the Agent’s Bank will promptly notify the Agent of such fact and request
alternative disbursement directions from the Agent.

          SECTION 2.09. Payments and Computations, Etc. (a) All amounts to be paid or deposited
by the Borrower or the Servicer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms
hereof no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in lawful money of the
United States in immediately available funds to the Collection Account or such other account as is
designated by the Lender. The Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to the Agent
interest on all amounts not paid or deposited when due hereunder (whether owing by the Borrower or
the Servicer) at the Default Funding Rate, payable on demand; provided, however,
that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.
Such interest shall be for the account of, and distributed by the Agent to, the Lender. Any
Obligation hereunder shall not be reduced by any distribution of any portion of Collections if at
any time such distribution is rescinded or returned by the Lender to the Borrower or any other
Person for any reason. All computations of interest and all computations of Yield, Liquidation
Fees and other fees hereunder (including, without limitation, the Fees, the Backup Servicer’s Fee,
the Custodian Fee and the Servicing Fee) shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the
actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed.

          (b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business
Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time
shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of Yield, interest or any fee payable
hereunder, as the case may be; provided, however, that with respect to the
calculation of Yield, such extension of time shall not be included in more than one Interest
Period.

          (c) If any Borrowing requested by the Borrower and approved by the Lender and the Agent
pursuant to Section 2.02 or any selection of any Fixed Period requested by the Borrower and
approved by the Agent pursuant to Section 2.04 is not for any reason whatsoever, except as
a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender, the Agent or an Affiliate
thereof, made or effectuated, as the case may be, on the date specified therefor, the Borrower
shall indemnify and defend the Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by the Lender
related thereto (other than any such loss, cost or expense solely due to the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Lender, the Agent or an Affiliate thereof), including, without
limitation, any loss (including cost of funds and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses), cost or
expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired
by the Lender to fund Loans or maintain Loans during such Fixed Period. The Lender shall provide
to the Borrower documentation setting forth the amounts of any loss, cost or expense referred to in
the previous sentence, such documentation to be conclusive absent manifest error.

          SECTION 2.10. Fees. (a) The Borrower shall pay the Lender (either directly or through
the Agent the fees (the “Fees”) in the amounts and on the dates set forth in the Fee
Letter).

          (b) All of the Fees payable pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be payable solely from
amounts available for application pursuant to, and subject to the priority of, payment set forth in
Section 2.06.

39

 

          SECTION 2.11. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. (a) If, due to either (i) the
introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or
increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation, administration or application of any
law or regulation (including, without limitation, any law or regulation resulting in any interest
payments paid to a Lender under this Agreement being subject to United States withholding tax) or
any guideline of any accounting board or authority (whether or not a part of government) which is
responsible for the establishment or interpretation of national or international accounting
principles, in each case whether foreign or domestic or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or
request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of
law), there shall be any increase in the cost to the Agent, the Lender, or any Affiliate, successor
or assign thereof (each of which shall be an “Affected Party”) of agreeing to make or
making, funding or maintaining any Loan (or any reduction of the amount of any payment (whether of
principal, interest, fee, compensation or otherwise) to any Affected Party hereunder), as the case
may be (“Increased Costs”), the Borrower shall, from time to time, within fifteen (15) days
after written demand complying with Section 2.09(c) by the Agent, on behalf of such
Affected Party, pay to the Agent, on behalf of such Affected Party, additional amounts sufficient
to compensate such Affected Party for such increased costs or reduced payments; provided, however,
that such Affected Party shall use reasonable efforts in good faith to mitigate any such Increased
Costs including such increased costs as may result from regulatory changes effecting the cost of
issuing commercial paper to any Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, any future interpretation and
application of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 or any other
interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board
shall constitute a change in the interpretation, administration or application of a guideline
subject to this Section 2.11(a) to the extent such interpretation or application may cause
Increased Costs, provided that the Lender shall have used reasonable efforts in good faith to
mitigate such Increased Costs.

          (b) If either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation,
administration or application of any law, guideline, rule or regulation, directive or request or
(ii) the compliance by any Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or
request, from any central bank, any governmental authority or agency or any accounting board or
authority (whether or not a part of government) which is responsible for the establishment or
interpretation of national or international accounting principles, in each case whether foreign or
domestic (whether or not having the force of law), including, without limitation, compliance by an
Affected Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Affected Party, as a consequence of its
obligations hereunder or any related document or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a
level below that which any such Affected Party could have achieved but for such introduction,
change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Party with respect to
capital adequacy), by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material, then, from time to
time, after demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting
forth the basis of such demand), the Agent shall be paid, on behalf of such Affected Party (from
Collections pursuant to, and subject to the priority of payment set forth in,
Section 2.06), such additional amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such
reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, any future interpretation and application of Financial
Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 or any other any interpretation of Accounting
Research Bulletin No. 51 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board shall

40

 

constitute a change in the interpretation, administration or application of a guideline
subject to this Section 2.11(b) to the extent such interpretation or application may cause
Increased Costs, provided that the Lender shall have used reasonable efforts in good faith to
mitigate such Increased Costs.

          (c) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.11, the Affected Party
may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Agent, on behalf of any Affected
Party making a claim under this Section 2.11, shall submit to the Borrower a certificate
setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the computations of such additional or
increased costs, which certificate shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

          (d) If, as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in
Section 2.11(a) or 2.11(b), any Affected Party (that is an Issuer) is required to
compensate a bank or other financial institution (including, without limitation, DZ Bank) providing
liquidity support, credit enhancement or other similar support to such Affected Party in connection
with this Agreement, then, upon demand by the Agent, on behalf of such Affected Party, the Borrower
shall pay to the Agent, on behalf of such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as may
be necessary to reimburse such Affected Party for any amounts paid by it.

          SECTION 2.12. Collateral Assignment of Agreements. The Borrower hereby collaterally
assigns to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lender, all of the Borrower’s right and title to and
interest in, to and under (but not any obligations under) the Purchase and Contribution Agreement,
the LEAF III Guaranty, the Lienholder Nominee Agreement, each Qualifying Interest Rate Hedge, the
Contract related to each Pledged Receivable, all other agreements, documents and instruments
evidencing, securing or guarantying any Pledged Receivable and all other agreements, documents and
instruments related to any of the foregoing (collectively the “Assigned Documents”).
Without limiting any obligation of the Servicer hereunder, the Borrower confirms and agrees that
the Agent (or any designee thereof, including, without limitation, the Servicer), following an
Event of Default, shall have the right to enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under each
Assigned Document, but without any obligation on the part of the Agent, the Lender or any of their
respective Affiliates to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under any such Assigned
Document. In addition, each of the Servicer and the Borrower confirms and agrees that the Servicer
and the Borrower will, upon receipt of notice or discovery thereof, promptly send to the Agent a
notice of (i) any breach (other than in an inconsequential respect) of any representation,
warranty, agreement or covenant under any such Assigned Document or (ii) events of default, or of
any event or occurrence under any other Assigned Documents that, upon notice, or upon the passage
of time or both, would constitute such a breach (other than in an inconsequential respect under any
such Assigned Document), of which the Borrower or Servicer has knowledge, under Contracts the
aggregate Discounted Balance of which exceeds $100,000 since last reported, immediately upon
learning thereof; provided, however, that all events of default, or any events or
occurrences under any other Assigned Documents that, upon notice, or upon the passage of time or
both, would constitute such a breach (other than in an inconsequential respect under any such
Assigned Document) under any Contracts, shall be reported no less frequently than on a monthly
basis. The parties hereto agree that such assignment to the Agent shall terminate upon the
Collection Date.

41

obligations to be performed by it pursuant to this Agreement, the Borrower hereby (i) collaterally
assigns and pledges to the Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties (and its successors and assigns)

and assigns), all of the following property whether tangible or intangible and whether now owned or

          (b) the Assigned Documents, including, in each case, without limitation, all monies due and to
become due to the Borrower under or in connection therewith;

          (c) the Collection Account, the Lockbox, the Master DDA Account and all other bank and similar

hereafter established) and all funds held therein, and all investments in and all income from the
investment of funds in the Collection Account, the Master DDA Account, and such other accounts;

          (d) the Records relating to any Pledged Receivables;

          (e) all UCC financing statements filed by the Borrower against the Seller under or in

          (h) all accounts, receivables, contract rights, general intangibles, instruments, chattel

     (i) all other assets of the Borrower.

          SECTION 2.14. Evidence of Debt. The Lender shall maintain an account or accounts
evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender resulting from each Loan owing to the

conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

          SECTION 2.15. Survival of Representations and Warranties; Repayment Obligations. It
is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.01
and Section 4.02 are made and true and correct on the date of this Agreement, at the time
of the initial Borrowing, and on each Subsequent Borrowing Date and Remittance Date thereafter.
If, as a result of the breach of any of the representations and warranties in Section 4.01
or Section 4.02 or for any other reason there exists or would exist a Borrowing Base
Deficiency after giving effect to any repurchase by LEAF of nonconforming Receivables pursuant to
Section 4.03, the Borrower shall promptly (and, in any case, by the end of business on the

the Release Price therefor on the date of such repurchase plus the Release Fee (as defined in the
Fee Letter) payable in connection with such transaction; provided, that the foregoing

thereof together with such other amounts the Borrower shall then have deposited with the Agent on
behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof, there shall not be a Borrowing
Base Deficiency, an Early Amortization Event, an event that but for notice or lapse of time or both
would constitute an Early Amortization Event, an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default
or (ii) upon the substitution of any Pledged Receivable in accordance with Section 2.08,
the Borrower may, with the consent of the Agent, obtain the release of such Substituted Receivables
and, solely to the extent related to such Substituted Receivable, the Related Security and other

with their respective interests, hereby automatically re-assign and transfer to the Borrower, for
no consideration but at the sole expense of the Borrower, their respective remaining interests in
the Pledged Assets, free and clear of any Adverse Claim resulting solely from an act by the Lender
or the Agent but without any other representation or warranty, express or implied, by or recourse
against the Lender or the Agent.

          (c) Upon the request of the Borrower, and at the Borrower’s expense, the Agent hereby
authorizes the filing and/or execution of such documents as reasonably requested by the Borrower in
order to effect any reassignment and resale of Pledged Receivables repurchased or substituted by
the Seller pursuant to the Purchase and Contribution Agreement or paid in full by the related
Obligor and shall notify the Custodian pursuant to the Custodial Agreement to release the related
Receivable File to the Borrower or the Seller, as applicable.

          SECTION 2.17. Prepayment. Except as expressly permitted or required herein,
including, without limitation, any repayment necessary to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency, any
repayment in connection with Section 4.03, or any repayment from Collections on Pledged
Receivables (including Collections related to the prepayment of such Pledged Receivables), any Loan
may be repaid prior to the Early Amortization Commencement Date and with payment of any applicable
Release Fee. The Borrower shall not terminate this Agreement without the Agent’s prior written
consent, which consent may be withheld in the Agent’s sole discretion.

          SECTION 2.18. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower or the Servicer
hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.09, free and clear of and without

withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, (a) in the case of the
Lender and the Agent, net income taxes that are imposed by the United States and franchise taxes
and net income taxes that are imposed on the Lender or the Agent by the state or foreign
jurisdiction under the laws of which either Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized,
in which its principal office is located, or in the case or any Lender, in which its applicable
lending office is located or any political subdivision thereof and (b) all taxes imposed as a
result of the Lender failing to comply with Section 2.18(e), (f) and (g) hereof (all such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower or the Servicer shall be required by
law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Lender or the Agent,
(i) the Borrower shall make an additional payment to the Lender or the Agent, as the case may be,
in an amount sufficient so that, after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.18), the Lender or the Agent (as
the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions
been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable
law.

44

 

          (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or other documentary
taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment
made hereunder or under any instrument delivered hereunder or from the execution, delivery or
registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any instrument delivered hereunder
(hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

          (c) The Borrower will indemnify and defend the Lender and the Agent for the full amount of
Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any
jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.18) paid by the Lender or the Agent
(as the case may be) in connection with the Pledged Assets, any obligation to make Loans hereunder,
or any other payment made to the Lender and/or the Agent hereunder and any liability (including
penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided that
the Lender or the Agent, as appropriate, making a demand for indemnity payment shall promptly
provide the Borrower, at its address set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof, with a
certificate from the relevant taxing authority or from a responsible officer of the Lender or the
Agent stating or otherwise evidencing that either Lender or the Agent has made payment of such
Taxes and Other Taxes and will provide a copy of or extract from documentation, if available,
furnished by such taxing authority evidencing assertion or payment of such Taxes and Other Taxes.
This indemnification shall be made within ten days from the date the Lender or the Agent (as the
case may be) makes written demand therefor.

          (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower of any Taxes, the Borrower
will furnish to the Agent, at its address set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof,
appropriate evidence of payment thereof.

          (e) The Lender shall, to the extent that it may then do so under applicable laws and
regulations, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent Bank (with, in the case of the Lender, a copy to
the Agent) (i) within 15 days after the date hereof, two (or such other number as may from time to
time be prescribed by applicable laws or regulations) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8 BEN or
W-8 ECI (or any successor forms or other certificates or statements which may be required from time
to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities or applicable laws or regulations), as
appropriate, to permit the Borrower to make payments hereunder for the account of the Agent or the
Lender, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding of United States federal income or
similar taxes and (ii) upon the obsolescence of or after the occurrence of any event requiring a
change in, any form or certificate previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.18(e),
copies (in such numbers as may from time to time be prescribed by applicable laws or regulations)
of such additional, amended or successor forms, certificates or statements as may be required under
applicable laws or regulations to permit the Borrower and the Agent Bank to make payments hereunder
for the account of the Agent or the Lender, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding of
United States federal income or similar taxes.

          (f) The Lender shall, to the extent that it may then do so under applicable laws and
regulations, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent Bank (with a copy to the Agent) any form or
document accurately completed and in a manner that the Borrower or the Agent Bank reasonably
requires, that may be required or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent Bank, in order
to allow it to make payments to the Lender under this Agreement without any

45

 

deduction or withholding on account of tax or with such a deduction or withholding at a
reduced rate.

          (g) Within 30 days of the written request of the Borrower therefor, the Agent and the Lender,
as appropriate, shall execute and deliver to the Borrower such certificates, forms or other
documents which can be furnished consistent with the facts and which are reasonably necessary to
assist the Borrower in applying for refunds of taxes remitted hereunder.

          (h) If, in connection with an agreement or other document providing liquidity support, credit
enhancement or other similar support to the Lender in connection with this Agreement or the funding
or maintenance of Loans hereunder, the Lender is required to compensate a bank or other financial
institution in respect of taxes which would otherwise qualify for indemnification under this
Section 2.18 or under Section 9.07 then within ten (10) days after demand by the
Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary
to reimburse such Lender for any amounts paid by it.

          (i) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the
agreements and obligations of the parties contained in this Section 2.18 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.

          SECTION 2.19. Transfer of Commitment upon an Early Amortization Event. In the event
that (1) an event described in clause (i) of the definition of Early Amortization Event has
occurred and is continuing with respect to Autobahn and (2) no other Early Amortization Event,
Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may
request that Autobahn assign its commitment to make Loans under this Agreement to DZ Bank pursuant
to Section 9.04, and if so requested, DZ Bank shall accept such assignment. After giving
effect to such assignment, any then remaining event described in clause (i) of the definition of
Early Amortization Event with respect to Autobahn shall be deemed waived.

Seller’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
to which the Seller is a party.

          (g) There are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity or investigations pending
or, to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, threatened against the Seller, before any court,
regulatory body, administrative agency or other tribunal or Government Entity (or the United States
federal government or any political subdivision thereof) having jurisdiction over the Seller or the
Borrower or its respective properties (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement or any of the
other Transaction Documents, (B) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents to which the Seller or the
Borrower is a party, or (C) seeking any determination or ruling that would, if adversely decided,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the performance by the Seller or the
Borrower of its respective obligations under, or the validity or

57

 

enforceability of, this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the business,
operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Seller or the Borrower.

          (h) All material licenses, approvals, authorizations, consents, orders or other actions of any
person, corporation or other organization, or of any court, governmental bureau, agency, or body or
official, required in connection with the conduct of the Seller’s business or the execution,
delivery and performance by the Seller of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to
which the Seller is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby have been or will be taken or obtained on or prior to the Closing Date.

          (i) The Seller is not in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any
obligation, covenant or condition in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which
it is bound the result of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on
its ability to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents.

          (j) The complete and exact legal name of the Seller is LEAF Equipment Leasing Income Fund III,
L.P. The Seller has not changed its name since formation and is not organized under the law of
more than one State other than as disclosed on Schedule II hereto (as such schedule may be
updated from time to by the Agent upon receipt of a notice delivered to the Agent pursuant to
Section 6.19). The Seller does not and has not since its formation used any other legal
names, trade names, fictitious names, assumed names or “doing business as” names, other than as
disclosed on Schedule II hereto (as such schedule may be updated from time to by the Agent
upon receipt of a notice delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 6.19).

          (k) The Seller has not assigned, pledged, or otherwise conveyed or encumbered (other than
Permitted Liens) any of the Pledged Assets to any Person other than the Borrower, and immediately
prior to the sale of such Pledged Assets to the Borrower, the Seller was the sole owner of the
Pledged Assets and had good and marketable title thereto, free and clear of all Liens (other than
Permitted Liens), in each case except for Liens that have been released or are to be released
simultaneously with such sale, or for Equipment relating to any Contract that had an original
equipment cost of less than (x) $50,000 or (y) if such Contract provides for a “nominal value”
purchase option, $25,000. No security agreement, financing statement or other public notice
similar in effect with respect to all or any part of the Pledged Assets is or will be on file or of
record in any public office, except such as have been or may hereinafter be filed pursuant to this
Agreement or a Transaction Document or such as have been released or are to be released
simultaneously with the sale of such Pledged Assets to the Borrower.

          (l) The provisions of the Purchase and Contribution Agreement are effective to create in favor
of the Borrower a valid and enforceable precautionary security interest in all right, title and
interest of the Seller in, to and under the Contracts. The precautionary security interests and
Liens granted under the Purchase and Contribution Agreement, if the sales are recharacterized, will
constitute fully perfected (to the extent to which attachment, pledge and perfection is governed by
the UCC as in effect in the applicable jurisdiction) first-priority security interests in, to and
under the Contracts, free and clear of all other Liens (other than Permitted Liens), and such
security interests are enforceable against all other Persons, except that

58

 

UCC financing statements are not required to have been filed against the related Obligor for
any Equipment related to any Contract that had an original equipment cost at origination of less
than $50,000, or if such Contract provides for a “nominal value” purchase option, of less than
$25,000. There are no agreements in effect adversely affecting the rights of the Seller to sell
the Contracts to the Borrower pursuant to the Purchase and Contribution Agreement.

          (m) The Seller has not selected Contracts to be sold to the Borrower in accordance with the
terms of the Purchase and Contribution Agreement and the other Transaction Documents through a
process that is adverse to the Lender or any Qualifying Hedge Counterparty.

          (n) The sale of the Pledged Assets by the Seller to the Borrower pursuant to the Purchase and
Contribution Agreement is in the ordinary course of business for the Seller and does not violate
the bulk transfer or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction.

          (o) No injunction, writ, restraining order or other order of any nature adversely affects the
Seller’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to
which the Seller is a party.

          (p) The Seller has filed (on a consolidated basis or otherwise) on a timely basis all tax
returns (including, without limitation, all foreign, federal, state, local and other tax returns)
required to be filed, is not liable for taxes payable by any other Person (other than Obligors in
respect of the related Equipment in accordance with the Contracts and its customary practices) and
has paid or made adequate provisions for the payment of all taxes due from the Seller. No tax lien
or similar adverse claim has been filed, and no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such
taxes except for those being contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been
made. Any taxes payable by the Seller in connection with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
have been paid or shall have been paid if and when due except for those being contested in good
faith and for which adequate reserves have been made.

          (q) As of the Closing Date and immediately after giving effect to each sale of Contracts
pursuant to the Purchase and Contribution Agreement, the fair market value of the assets of the
Seller is greater than the fair value of its liabilities (including, without limitation, contingent
liabilities of the Seller), and the Seller is and will be solvent, is and will be able to pay its
debts as they mature and does not and will not have an unreasonably small capital or remaining
assets to engage in the business in which it is engaged and proposes to engage. The Seller does
not intend to incur, or believe that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as
they mature. The Seller is not contemplating the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy,
liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator,
trustee or similar official in respect of the Seller or any of its assets. The Seller is not
transferring any Pledged Assets with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.
The Seller has received fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the sale
of the Contracts by the Seller under the Purchase and Contribution Agreement.

59

 

          (r) The information, reports, financial statements, exhibits and schedules furnished in
writing by or on behalf of Seller to the Lender or the Agent in connection with the negotiation,
preparation or delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or included herein or
therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto are true and correct in every material respect, or
(in the case of projections) are based on reasonable estimates, on the date as of which such
information is stated or certified and does not and will not contain an untrue statement of a
material fact, or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or
therein contained, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
There is no fact known to a responsible officer of the Seller that, after due inquiry, would
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been disclosed herein, in the
other Transaction Documents or in a report, financial statement, exhibit, schedule, disclosure
letter or other writing furnished to the Lender and the Agent for use in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

          (s) No part of the proceeds of any sale of Contracts to the Borrower or Loans will be used by
the Seller to acquire any security in any transaction which is subject to Section 13 or 14 of the
Securities Exchange Act, or used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the
respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under, or for any other purpose which violates or
would be inconsistent with the provisions of, Regulation T, U or X.

          (t) The Seller is not an “investment company” or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for an
“investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act, nor is the Seller
otherwise subject to regulation thereunder. The Seller is not subject to regulation under any
Federal or state statute or regulation which limits its ability to incur Indebtedness.

          (u) Each of the Contracts was underwritten in conformance with the Seller’s standard
underwriting, credit, collection, operating and reporting procedures and systems (including,
without limitation, the Credit and Collection Policy of LEAF Financial).

          (v) The Seller is in compliance with ERISA and has not incurred and does not expect to incur
any liabilities (except for premium payments arising in the ordinary course of business) to the
PBGC (or any successor thereto) under ERISA.

          (w) The Contracts to be pledged as Pledged Receivables were originated or acquired by the
Seller, and the origination and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the
Contracts have been, in all respects legal, proper, prudent and customary in the equipment lease
origination business.

          (x) The Seller engages in no other business activities other than (i) the origination and the
purchase from approved originators of leases of office-, medical-, technology-, industrial- and
other miscellaneous equipment, pledging such leases to warehouse finance providers, transferring
such leases in connection with securitizations and asset sale transactions and other activities
relating to the foregoing to the extent permitted by the organizational documents of the Seller as
in effect on the date hereof, or as amended with the prior written consent of the Lender, or (ii)
any other business activity, so long as such business activity does not cause a Material Adverse
Effect on the business activities specified above.

60

 

          (y) The unaudited balance sheets of the Seller as of June 30, 2008 and the related statements
of income for the fiscal periods ended on such date, heretofore furnished to Lender, have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP.

and to transact the business in which it is engaged (which includes performing its obligations
under the Transaction Documents) and is duly qualified and in good standing under the laws of each
jurisdiction where its performance under the Transaction Documents requires such qualification
except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

this Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and all of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and has taken all necessary action to authorize the

enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except as the enforceability
hereof and thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization and other
similar laws of general application affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles
of equity (whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). No
consent of any other party and no consent, license, approval or authorization of, or registration
or declaration with, any governmental authority, bureau or agency is required in connection with
the execution, delivery or performance by the Backup Servicer of this Agreement or any Transaction
Document to which it is a party or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any such
Transaction Document, other than such as have been met or obtained.

          (c) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Backup Servicer and all
other agreements and instruments executed and delivered or to be executed and delivered by the
Backup Servicer pursuant hereto or thereto will not violate any provision of any existing law or

property or assets may be bound.

          (d) To the knowledge of the Backup Servicer, no litigation or administrative proceeding of or
before any court, tribunal or governmental body is presently pending or, to the knowledge of the
Backup Servicer, threatened against the Backup Servicer or any properties of the Backup Servicer or
with respect to this Agreement, which, if adversely determined, could have a material effect on the
business, assets or financial condition of the Backup Servicer or

61

 

which would draw into question the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or
any other Transaction Document to which the Backup Servicer is a party.

          (e) No injunction, writ, restraining order or other order of any nature adversely affects the
Backup Servicer’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any Transaction Document
to which the Backup Servicer is a party.

          (f) No information, exhibit, financial statement, document, book, record or report furnished
or to be furnished by the Backup Servicer to the Agent or the Lender in connection with this
Agreement is or will be inaccurate in any material respect, and no such document contains or will
contain any material misstatement of fact or omits or shall omit to state a material fact or any
fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in the context of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading.

AND THE SERVICER

          SECTION 5.01. General Covenants. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements of the Borrower, the Servicer and the Seller under this Agreement shall be several and
not joint.

          (a) The Borrower will observe all limited liability company procedures required by its
certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement and the laws of its jurisdiction of
formation. The Borrower will maintain its limited liability company existence in good standing
under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation and will promptly obtain and thereafter maintain
qualifications to do business as a foreign limited liability company in any other state in which it
does business and in which it is required to so qualify under applicable law.

          (b) The Borrower will at all times ensure that (i) its members act independently and in its
interests and in the interests of its creditors, (ii) at all times maintains at least one
“Independent Manager” who (A) is not currently and has not been during the five years
preceding the date of this Agreement an officer, director or employee of the Borrower or an
Affiliate thereof (other than acting as independent manager or in a similar capacity), (B) is not a
member of the Borrower or an Affiliate thereof (other than a special member of the Borrower or a
limited purpose corporation, business trust, partnership or other entity organized for the purpose
of acquiring, financing or otherwise investing, directly or indirectly, in assets or receivables
originated, owned or serviced by Seller or an Affiliate thereof), (C) has (1) prior experience as

relief under any applicable state or federal law relating to bankruptcy and (2) at least three
years of employment experience with one or more entities that provide (in the ordinary course of
their businesses) advisory, management or placement services to issuers of securitization or

management of the Borrower (other than permitting employees, officers and directors of Seller to
serve as officers and directors of the Borrower and to take such acts and do such things in
connection therewith as such persons deem reasonable or necessary under the circumstances to
faithfully fulfill their duties as officers and directors of Borrower, or as they are required to
take or do by any applicable law, rule or regulation, or by the order, decree or judgment of any
court, arbitrator or governmental body), (viii) conduct all business correspondence of the Borrower
and other communications in the Borrower’s own name on its own stationery, (ix) not pay any
expenses, guaranty any obligations or advance funds for the payment of expenses or obligations of
Seller or any other Affiliate of Seller, (x) not permit Seller or any other Affiliate of Seller to
act as an agent of the Borrower in any capacity and not itself act as an agent for Seller, but
instead present itself to the public as a limited liability company separate from Seller,
independently engaged in the business of purchasing Contracts, and (xi) other than activities
undertaken pursuant to the Purchase and Contribution Agreement and this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents, not engage in intercorporate transactions with Seller or any other Affiliate
of Seller, other than transactions in the ordinary course of business between a parent corporation
and its subsidiary. The Borrower will pay its operating expenses and liabilities from its own
assets; provided, however, that the Borrower’s organizational expenses and the expenses in
connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
may be paid by Seller.

          (c) The Borrower will not have any of its indebtedness guaranteed by Seller or any Affiliate
of Seller except as otherwise contemplated under the Transaction Documents. Furthermore, the
Borrower will not hold itself out, or permit itself to be held out, as having agreed to pay or as
being liable for the debts of Seller, and the Borrower will not engage in business transactions
with Seller, except on an arm’s-length basis. The Borrower will not hold Seller out to third
parties as other than an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from the Borrower. The
Borrower will cause any of its financial statements consolidated with those of Seller to state that
the Borrower is a separate corporate entity with its own separate creditors who, in any liquidation
of the Borrower, will be entitled to be satisfied out of the Borrower’s assets prior to any value
in the Borrower becoming available to the Borrower’s equity holders. The Borrower will not act in
any other matter that could foreseeably mislead others with respect to the Borrower’s separate
identity.

          (d) The Borrower shall take all other actions necessary to maintain the accuracy of the
factual assumptions set forth in the legal opinions of Thacher Proffitt & Wood LLP, as special
counsel to the Seller and the Borrower, issued in connection with the Purchase and Contribution
Agreement and relating to the issues of substantive consolidation and true conveyance of the
Pledged Receivables.

          (e) Except as otherwise provided herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Borrower
shall not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise

63

 

dispose of, or create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to, any
Pledged Receivable, any Collections related thereto or any other Pledged Assets related thereto, or
upon or with respect to any account to which any Collections of any Receivable are sent, or assign
any right to receive income in respect thereof. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any
other Transaction Document, the Borrower shall not create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon
or with respect to any of the Borrower’s assets. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any
other Transaction Document, the Servicer shall not create, or permit any action to be taken by any
Person to create, any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to any of the Borrower’s assets. Any
expenses incurred by the Servicer (if the Servicer is not LEAF Financial) shall be reimbursed to
the Servicer by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.06.

          (f) The Borrower will not merge or consolidate with, or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise
dispose of (whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions), all or substantially all of
its assets (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) other than, with respect to asset dispositions
in connection with a Take-Out Securitization or a Whole Loan Sale, or acquire all or substantially
all of the assets or capital stock or other ownership interest of any Person except in a
foreclosure action against an Obligor without the prior written consent of the Agent.

          (g) The Borrower will not account for or treat (whether in financial statements or otherwise)
the transactions contemplated by the Purchase and Contribution Agreement in any manner other than a
sale or capital contribution and absolute assignment of Receivables, Related Security and Other
Conveyed Property by the Seller to the Borrower constituting a “true conveyance” for bankruptcy
purposes, it being understood that the Loans to the Borrower under this Agreement will be treated
as debt on the consolidated financial statements of Seller.

          (h) The Borrower will not amend, modify, waive or terminate any terms or conditions of the
Purchase and Contribution Agreement without the written consent of the Agent, and shall perform its
obligations thereunder.

          (i) Without the prior written consent of the Agent, the Borrower will not (i) amend, modify or
otherwise make any change to its certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement,
articles of incorporation or by laws, as applicable, (including, without limitation, any change to
its legal name, jurisdiction of organization or type of organization) nor (ii) change the location
of its chief executive office or principal place of business or the location of such Person’s
records regarding the Pledged Receivables (other than those delivered to the Custodian).

          (j) LEAF Financial will not make or allow to be made and the Borrower will not allow to be
made any amendment to LEAF Financial’s Credit and Collection Policy, other than an amendment with
no adverse effect on the Lender or Pledged Receivables, Related Security and Other Conveyed
Property, without the prior written consent of the Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. LEAF Financial and the Borrower will promptly notify the Agent and the Backup Servicer
of each amendment to LEAF Financial’s Credit and Collection Policy.

64

 

          (k) The Servicer and the Borrower shall direct the Obligor of each Pledged Receivable to remit
all Collections owed by such Obligor to the Lockbox or by wire transfer to the Master DDA Account
or the Collection Account (and except as provided in the Intercreditor and Lockbox Administration
Agreement shall use its best efforts to ensure that only funds constituting Collections shall be
deposited into the Lockbox and Master DDA Account). All funds (including, but not limited to,

to all deposits, withdrawals and reconciliations with respect to the Lockbox, Master DDA Account
and the Collection Account.

          (l) If the Borrower receives any Collections, the Borrower will remit such Collections to the
Collection Account within one (1) Business Day of the Borrower’s receipt thereof (and shall use its
best efforts to ensure that only funds constituting Collections shall be deposited into the
Collection Account).

          (m) The Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian two (2) Business Days

delivered to it on such Purchase Date.

          (o) Each of the Servicer and the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within two

received that the Lockbox or any Master DDA Account has become subject to any writ, judgment,

          (t) Each of the Seller, the Servicer (if LEAF Financial or one of its Affiliates) and the
Borrower shall take all actions necessary to ensure that (i) prior to the date of the initial
Borrowing hereunder, the Borrower is at all times named as an additional insured under the LEAF
Blanket Policy and (ii) prior to the date of the initial Borrowing hereunder, the Agent (as its
interests may appear) is at all times named as lender loss payee under the LEAF Blanket Policy.
Each of the Seller, the Servicer and the Borrower shall take all actions necessary to ensure that
(A) the Agent receives a written copy of any notice of termination with respect to the LEAF Blanket

Receivable.

          (y) The Borrower shall not enter into, or be a party to, any transaction with any Affiliate of
the Borrower, except for:

          (1) the transactions contemplated hereunder, by the Purchase and Contribution Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents;

          (2) other transactions in the nature of employment contracts and directors’ fees, upon fair
and reasonable terms materially no less favorable to the Borrower than would be obtained in a
comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate; and

66

 

          (3) with respect only to transactions between the Borrower and the Seller, transactions in the
ordinary course of business between a parent corporation and its subsidiary.

          (z) The Borrower shall not (i) cancel, terminate, extend, amend, modify or waive (or consent

interests in the First Priority Assets, and a first priority perfected security interest (or
back-up security interest in the case of a true lease) to exist in favor of the Agent (for the
benefit of the Lender) in the Borrower’s interests in such Equipment, Related Security and Other

Receivable and all other Pledged Assets in which a security interest can be perfected by filing or
possession under the UCC (and the proceeds thereof) being Pledged hereunder, to secure a Loan on
the Borrowing Date thereof including (A) the filing of a UCC financing statement in the applicable
jurisdiction adequately describing the Borrower’s interest in the Equipment, Related Security and
Other Conveyed Property and naming the Borrower as debtor and the Agent as the secured party, and
(B) filing Obligor Financing Statements against all Obligors (except that UCC financing statements
are not required to have been filed against the related Obligor for any Equipment related to any
Contract that had an original equipment cost at origination of less than $50,000, or if such
Contract provides for a “nominal value” purchase option, of less than $25,000), (ii) ensure that
such security interest is and shall be prior to all other liens upon and security interests in the
Borrower’s interests in such First Priority Assets (and the proceeds thereof) that now exist, or
may hereafter arise or be created other than Permitted Liens, and (iii) ensure that immediately
prior to the Pledge of such Receivable by the Borrower to the Agent (for the benefit of the
Lender), such Equipment, Related Security and Other Conveyed Property and all other Pledged Assets
are free and clear of all Adverse Claims other than Permitted Liens.

          (bb) The Servicer shall (i) pay all material taxes, assessments, fines, fees and other
liabilities for which it is obligated of which it has knowledge or notice with respect the
Contracts before they become delinquent, and (ii) make all filings in respect of any such taxes,
assessments, fines, fees or other liabilities of which it has knowledge or notice on a timely
basis. The Servicer shall be reimbursed for any such payments pursuant to Section 6.06.

          (cc) The Servicer, with respect to each Contract, by the Borrowing Date on which such Contract
is Pledged hereunder and on each relevant date thereafter, shall cause its master computer records
relating to such Contract to be clearly and unambiguously marked to show that such Contract has
been transferred to the Borrower under the Purchase and Contribution Agreement and Pledged under
this Agreement and shall maintain separate and accurate records and books of account on behalf of
the Agent and Lender, respectively.

67

 

          (dd) Without the prior written consent of the Agent, the Borrower shall not make, give or
permit, directly or indirectly, by set-off, redemption, purchase or in any other manner, any
payment of (of whatever kind or nature, whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise) or
security for the whole or any part of any subordinated debt, including, without limitation, any
letter of credit or similar credit support facility to support payment of the Subordinated Debt.

          (ee) All transactions and dealings between the Seller and its Affiliates will be conducted on
an arm’s-length basis.

          (ff) The Originator will not make any amendments to the Underwriting Guidelines or to
Section 2.10 of the National City Credit Agreement (other than an amendment with no adverse
effect on the Lender or Pledged Receivables and Related Security and Other Conveyed Property)
without the prior written consent of Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
Originator will promptly notify the Agent of each amendment to the Underwriting Guidelines or
Section 2.10 of the National City Credit Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph
(ff), the “National City Credit Agreement” means the credit agreement, dated July 31, 2006 by
and among LEAF Financial, the Originator, the lenders party thereto and National City Bank.

          (gg) Prior to the termination of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document and the
payment of all outstanding Obligations and any other amounts payable pursuant hereto and thereto,
the Seller will not sell all or substantially all of its assets, except to the Borrower, without
the prior written consent of the Lender, except for temporary acquisitions and dispositions of
assets on arm’s-length terms in the ordinary course of business between Seller and its
subsidiaries.

          (hh) the Seller shall at all times hold itself out to the public under the Seller’s own name
as a legal entity separate and distinct from its Affiliates.

          (ii) To the extent that the Seller and the Borrower and any of their respective stockholders
or Affiliates have offices in the same location, there shall be a fair and appropriate allocation
of overhead costs among them, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of such expenses.

          (jj) the Seller will preserve and maintain its legal existence as a Delaware limited
partnership organized solely under the laws of the State of Delaware.

          (kk) the Seller will preserve and maintain all of its material rights, privileges, licenses
and franchises.

          (ll) the Seller will comply with the material requirements of all applicable federal, state
and local laws, and regulations thereunder (including, without limitation, the Truth in Lending Act
and all environmental laws).

          (mm) the Seller will maintain accurate and complete records and books of account with respect
to the Pledged Assets and the Seller’s business, in which complete entries will be made in
accordance with GAAP.

68

 

          (nn) the Seller shall keep all of its property useful and necessary in its business in good
working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted). The Seller shall maintain such
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. Each insurance policy referred to in the preceding sentence shall
name the Agent (by name or as assignee of the Seller), for the benefit of the Lender and each
Qualifying Hedge Counterparty, as loss payee to the extent of its insurable interest (including its
interest in the Pledged Assets).

          (oo) the Seller shall furnish to the Lender, as soon as available, copies of any and all proxy
statements, financial statements and reports which the Seller sends to its limited partners, and
copies of all (if any) regular, periodic and special reports, and all registration statements filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any Governmental Authority which supervises the
issuance of securities by any LEAF Party.

          (pp) the Seller shall not permit any senior managers to engage in any business in the leasing
industry (other than any trade association activities or leasing business of the LEAF Parties and
its Affiliates) so long as such senior managers are employees, officers, managers or directors of
the Seller or any other LEAF Party.

          (qq) the Seller shall at all times act as the managing member of the Borrower in accordance
with the Borrower’s operating agreement, and the Seller shall not remove the Person who is acting
as Independent Manager of the Borrower or otherwise appoint a successor independent manager of the
Borrower unless the Lender shall have consented to such removal or appointment in writing within
five (5) Business Days of Borrower’s written request for Lender’s consent (Lender’s failure to
provide any such written consent within five (5) Business Days shall be deemed a consent to such
removal or appointment).

          (rr) the Seller shall (i) 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
dissolution) or sell all or substantially all of its assets without the prior written consent of
the Lender unless otherwise expressly permitted under the Transaction Documents, and (ii) preserve
and maintain its corporate existence, rights, franchises and privileges in the jurisdiction of its
organization.

          (ss) [RESERVED].

          (tt) The Lender shall not authorize the Seller to, and the Seller shall not (without the prior
written consent of the Lender), enter into any transaction, including, without limitation, any
purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or the rendering of any service, with any Person
(including, without limitation any Affiliate, any shareholder, director, manager, officer or
employee (or any relative thereof) of the Seller or any such Affiliate) unless such transaction is
(a) not otherwise prohibited under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (b) in the
ordinary course of the Seller’s business and (c) upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable
to the Seller than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s-length transaction.

69

 

          (uu) Without the prior written consent of the Lender, the Seller will not, nor will it permit
or allow others to, amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of any Contract document,
except in accordance with the Transaction Documents or the Credit and Collection Policy. The
Seller shall take such reasonable and lawful actions as the Lender shall request to enforce the
Seller’s rights under the Contracts, and, following the occurrence of a Default, shall take such
actions as are necessary to enable the Lender to exercise such rights in the Lender’s own name.

          (vv) the Seller will observe all corporate procedures required by its certificate of limited
partnership, its limited partnership agreement and the laws of its jurisdiction of formation. The
Seller will maintain its corporate existence in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
formation and will promptly obtain and thereafter maintain qualifications to do business as a
foreign business entity in any other state in which it does business and in which it is required to
so qualify.

          (ww) the Seller will not hold itself out, or permit itself to be held out, as having agreed to
pay or as being liable for the debts of the Borrower and the Seller will not engage in business
transactions with the Borrower, except on an arm’s-length basis. The Seller will not hold the
Borrower out to third parties as other than an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from the
Seller. The Seller will cause any financial statements consolidated with those of the Borrower to
state that the Borrower is a separate organizational entity with its own separate creditors who, in
any liquidation of the Borrower, will be entitled to be satisfied out of the Borrower’s assets
prior to any value in the Borrower becoming available to the Seller’s equity holders. The Seller
will not act in any other matter that could foreseeably mislead others with respect to the
Borrower’s separate identity.

          (xx) the Seller shall take all actions necessary to maintain the accuracy of the factual
assumptions set forth in the legal opinions of Thacher Proffitt & Wood LLP, special counsel to the
Borrower and the Seller, issued in connection with the Purchase and Contribution Agreement and
relating to the issues of substantive consolidation and true sale of the Contracts.

          (yy) Except as otherwise provided herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Seller
shall not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or create or
suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to, any Contract, any collections related
thereto or any other Pledged Assets related thereto, or upon or with respect to any account to
which any collections of any Contract are sent, or assign any right to receive income in respect
thereof.

          (zz) the Seller will not account for or treat (whether in financial statements or otherwise)
the transactions contemplated by the Purchase and Contribution Agreement in any manner other than
the sale or contribution of Contracts and other Pledged Assets by the Seller to the Borrower, it
being understood that the Loans to the Borrower under this Agreement will be treated as debt on the
consolidated financial statements of the Seller.

          (aaa) the Seller will not amend, modify, waive or terminate any terms or conditions of the
Purchase and Contribution Agreement without the prior written consent of the Lender, and shall
perform its obligations thereunder.

70

 

          (bbb) the Seller shall pay and discharge all taxes and governmental charges upon it or against
any of its properties or assets or its income prior to the date after which penalties attach for
failure to pay, except (a) to the extent that the Seller shall be contesting in good faith in
appropriate proceedings its obligation to pay such taxes or charges, adequate reserves having been
set aside for the payment thereof, or (b) with respect to such taxes and charges which are not
material in either nature or amount such that any failure to pay or discharge them, and any
resulting penalties, either in any one instance or in the aggregate, would not materially and
adversely affect the financial condition, operations, business or prospects of the Seller or the
interests of the Lender and/or each Qualifying Hedge Counterparty under this Agreement, the Note or
any other Transaction Document.

          (ccc) At the request of the Lender, the Seller shall prepare (and execute, if required) such
financing statements as Lender determines may be required by law to perfect, maintain and protect
the precautionary security interest of Agent, for the benefit of the Lender, and each Qualifying
Hedge Counterparty, in the Conveyed Assets and in the Proceeds thereof.

          (ddd) the Seller shall pay and perform, as and when due, all of its obligations of whatever
nature, except where the amount or validity thereof is currently being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and reserves in conformity with GAAP with respect thereto have been
provided on the books of the Seller, and except to the extent that the failure to do so could not
individually or in the aggregate reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

          (eee) the Seller will provide the Lender with not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written
notice of any change in the form of organization, or jurisdiction of formation of the Seller to
permit the Lender to make any additional filings necessary to continue the Agent’s perfected
security interest in the Pledged Assets, except that UCC financing statements are not required to
have been filed against the related Customer for any Equipment related to any Contract that had an
original equipment cost at origination of less than $50,000, or if such Contract provides for a
“nominal value” purchase option, of less than $25,000.

          (fff) the Seller shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, comply (i) in all
material respects with all requirements of applicable federal, state and local laws, and
regulations thereunder and any change therein or in the application, administration or
interpretation thereof (including, without limitation any request, directive, guideline or policy,
whether or not having the force of law) by any Government Entity, the United States federal
government or any political subdivision thereof charged with the administration or interpretation
thereof; and (ii) with all indentures, mortgages, deeds of trust, agreements, or other instruments
or Obligations to which it is a party, including without limitation, each Transaction Document to
which it is a party, or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or affected, or which may
affect the Contracts, if the failure to comply therewith could, individually or in the aggregate,
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          (ggg) the Seller shall not enter into any transaction which adversely affects the Pledged
Assets or the Lender’s or each Qualifying Hedge Counterparty’s rights under this Agreement, the
Note or any other Transaction Document.

71

 

          (hhh) the Seller shall not grant or otherwise create any Adverse Claim on its membership
interest in the Borrower.

ARTICLE VI

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING; CERTAIN COVENANTS

          SECTION 6.01. Appointment and Designation of the Servicer. (a) The Borrower, the
Lender and the Agent hereby appoint the Person designated by the Agent from time to time (with the
approval of the Lender), pursuant to this Section 6.01 (the “Servicer”), as their
agent to service, administer and collect the Pledged Receivables and otherwise to enforce their
respective rights and interests in and under the Pledged Receivables and the other Pledged Assets.
The Servicer shall collect such Pledged Receivables under the conditions referred to above by means
of the collection procedures as set forth in the Credit and Collection Policy, to the extent
consistent with the provisions of this Article VI. Unless otherwise specified by the
Borrower, the Servicer’s authorization under this Agreement shall terminate on the Collection Date.
Until the Agent gives notice to the Borrower of a designation of a new Servicer or consents in
writing to the appointment by the Borrower of a new Servicer, LEAF Financial Corporation is hereby
designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer, pursuant
to the terms hereof at all times until the earlier of the Agent’s designation of a new Servicer,
the delivery by the Agent of its written consent to the appointment by the Borrower of a new
Servicer or the Collection Date. The Agent may at any time designate as Servicer any Person to
succeed LEAF Financial or any successor Servicer, on the condition in each case that any such
Person so designated shall agree to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to
the terms hereof. Each of the Borrower and LEAF Financial hereby grants to any successor Servicer
an irrevocable power of attorney to take any and all steps in the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s
name, as applicable, and on behalf of the Borrower or LEAF Financial, necessary or desirable, in
the determination of such successor Servicer, to service, administer or collect any and all Pledged
Receivables and other Pledged Assets.

          (b) The Servicer is hereby authorized to act for the Borrower, the Seller and the Agent and,
in such capacity, shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Pledged Receivables
and other Pledged Assets and perform the other actions required by the Servicer under this
Agreement for the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and the Lender, as applicable. The Servicer
agrees that its servicing of the Pledged Receivables shall be carried out in accordance with
customary and usual procedures of institutions which service equipment lease contracts and
receivables and, to the extent more exacting, the degree of skill and attention that the Servicer
exercises from time to time, with respect to all comparable equipment lease contracts and
receivables that it services for itself or others in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy and, to the extent more exacting, the requirements of this Article VI. The
Servicer’s duties shall include, without limitation, collecting and posting of all Collections,
responding to inquiries of Obligors on the Pledged Receivables, investigating delinquencies,
sending invoices, payment statements or payment books to Obligors, reporting any required tax
information to Obligors, policing the collateral, enforcing the terms of the Contracts (and any
documents related thereto) related to any Pledged Receivables and Pledged Assets, complying with
the terms of the Master DDA Intercreditor Agreement applicable to the Receivables or this

72

 

Transaction, accounting for Collections, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Agent
with respect to distributions, performing such other related duties as reasonably requested by the
Borrower, the Agent or the Lender and performing the other duties specified herein.

          (c) To the extent consistent with the standards, policies and procedures otherwise required
hereby, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in
connection with such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem necessary
or desirable. The Servicer is authorized to release liens on Equipment in order to collect
Insurance Proceeds with respect thereto and to liquidate such Equipment or otherwise realize upon
any Related Security in accordance with its Credit and Collection Policy, policies and procedures;
provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not
(i) except pursuant to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction, release an Obligor from
payment of any unpaid amount under any Pledged Receivable or (ii) waive the right to collect the
unpaid balance of any Pledged Receivable from such Obligor, except that, subject to
Section 6.02(a), the Servicer may forego collection efforts if the amount which the
Servicer, in its reasonable judgment, expects to realize in connection with such collection efforts
is determined by the Servicer, in its reasonable judgment, to be less than the reasonably expected
costs of pursuing such collection efforts and if the Servicer would forego such collection efforts
in accordance with its customary procedures. The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its
own name (in its capacity as Servicer) to the extent possible, or in the name of the Borrower, the
Agent or the Lender (provided that if the Servicer is acting in the name of the Borrower,
the Agent or the Lender, the Servicer shall have obtained the Borrower’s, the Agent’s or the
Lender’s consent, as the case may be, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), a legal
proceeding to enforce any Pledged Receivable (or any terms or provisions of the related Contract)
or to commence or participate in any other legal proceeding (including, without limitation, a
bankruptcy proceeding) relating to or involving a Pledged Receivable or any related Contract,
Obligor, Equipment, Related Security or Pledged Assets. If the Servicer commences or participates
in such a legal proceeding in its own name, the Borrower, the Agent or the Lender, as the case may
be, shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned such Pledged Receivable to the
Servicer solely for purposes of commencing or participating in any such proceeding as a party or
claimant, and the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Borrower, the Agent or the Lender, as
the case may be, to execute and deliver in the Servicer’s name any notices, demands, claims,
complaints, responses, affidavits or other documents or instruments in connection with any such
proceeding. The Borrower, the Agent or the Lender, as the case may be, shall furnish the Servicer
with any powers of attorney and other documents which such Person may reasonably request in writing
and which such Person deems necessary or appropriate and take any other steps which such Person may
deem necessary or appropriate to enable such Person to carry out its servicing and administrative
duties under this Agreement. If, however, in any suit or legal proceeding it is held that such
Person may not prosecute such suit or legal proceeding on the grounds that it is not an actual
party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such suit or legal proceeding, the Borrower shall
take such steps as such Person deems necessary to prosecute such suit or legal proceeding,
including bringing suit in its name.

          (d) The Servicer will defend the Pledged Assets against, and will take such other action as is
necessary to remove, any Lien, security interest or claim on or to the Pledged Assets, other than
the security interests created under this Agreement and the rights of Obligors

73

 

under the related Contracts, and the Servicer will defend the right, title and interest of the
Agent, for the benefit of the Lender and each Qualifying Hedge Counterparty, in and to any of the
Pledged Assets against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

          (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions or any other provision herein, after the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or Servicer Default, the Servicer
(i) shall not amend, waive or otherwise modify any Pledged Receivable or Contract in any manner
without the prior written consent of the Agent, (ii) shall take (or refrain from taking, as
applicable) such actions regarding the enforcement of the Pledged Receivables and Contracts and
other contracts with the Obligors as directed by the Agent and (iii) shall (or shall refrain from,
as applicable) contact the Obligors of the Pledged Receivables as directed by the Agent.

          (f) While in possession of the Contracts, Receivable Files and other Pledged Assets, the
Servicer agrees that it does not and will not have or assert any beneficial ownership interest in
any Contracts, the Receivable Files, Records or other documents related to the Contracts, the
related Equipment, Related Security or other Pledged Assets.

          SECTION 6.02. Collection of Receivable Payments; Modification and Amendment of
Receivables. (a) Consistent with and subject to the standards, policies and procedures
required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall collect all payments called for under the terms and
provisions of the Contracts related to the Pledged Receivables (and the terms and provisions of any
documents related thereto) as and when the same shall become due and shall follow such collection
procedures with respect to the Pledged Receivables and the related Contracts and Insurance Policies
as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the
Borrower and the Lender with respect thereto.

          (b) The Servicer will remit all Collections received by it to the Collection Account within
the later of (i) one (1) Business Day after receipt or (ii) one (1) Business Day after available
funds are identified in respect thereof (and shall ensure that only funds constituting Collections
shall be deposited into the Collection Account) and shall hold all Collections in trust for the
benefit of the Agent pending deposit of the same into the Collection Account.

          (c) The Servicer may, in accordance with its Credit and Collection Policy, waive any Servicing
Charges or any other fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing any Contract.
The Servicer may waive, modify or vary any other terms of any Contract or consent to the
postponement of strict compliance with any such term, in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy, if in the Servicer’s reasonable and prudent determination such waiver, modification or
postponement is not adverse to the Agent or the Lender; provided, however, except
in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, the Servicer shall not, without the consent of
the Agent, (A) forgive any payment of a Scheduled Payment, (B) decrease the amount of any Scheduled
Payment, (C) extend the maturity date of any Contract or (D) extend the time for performance for
any payment under such Contract.

          SECTION 6.03. Realization Upon Receivables. Consistent with the standards, policies
and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall use its best efforts to repossess (or
otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and liquidate any

74

 

Equipment securing a Pledged Receivable with respect to which the Servicer has determined that
payments thereunder are not likely to be resumed, as soon as is practicable after default on such
Pledged Receivable but in no event later than would be customary under the circumstances involved
(as determined in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy) and, in any case, in a manner
as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the
Borrower and the Lender with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer
need not repossess (or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and liquidate the Equipment
securing such a Pledged Receivable if, in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer, the value of such
Equipment does not exceed the cost to repossess (or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of)
and liquidate such Equipment. The Servicer is authorized to follow such customary practices and
procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable, consistent with the standard of care required
by Section 6.01, which practices and procedures may include reasonable efforts to realize
upon any guaranties or other Related Security, selling the related Equipment at public or private
sale, the submission of claims under an Insurance Policy and other actions by the Servicer,
including without limitation, repossession (or otherwise comparably converting the ownership) of
the Equipment and obtaining a substitute Obligor on such Receivable, in order to realize upon such
Pledged Receivable. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which the
Equipment shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any
repair or towards the repossession of such Equipment, unless it shall determine in its discretion
that such repair and/or repossession shall increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related
Pledged Receivable by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. All Liquidation Proceeds
shall be remitted directly by the Servicer to the Collection Account without deposit into any
intervening account as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the later of (i) one
(1) Business Day after receipt thereof and (ii) one (1) Business Day after available funds are
identified in respect thereof. The Servicer shall pay on behalf of the Borrower any personal
property taxes assessed on repossessed Equipment, and the Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement for the payment of such taxes as provided in Section 6.06.

          SECTION 6.04. Insurance Regarding Equipment. (a) Without limiting the effect of any
other provision hereof, the Servicer shall monitor the status of the Insurance Policies required
under the Contracts in accordance with the terms of the Credit and Collection Policy and its
customary servicing procedures. The Servicer shall determine whether each Obligor has obtained and
maintains a physical loss and damage insurance policy (except to the extent that the equipment
related to such Receivable had an original cost of less than $100,000), a general public liability
(if the Equipment is a Vehicle or such other type of Equipment which would be required to be
covered by a general public liability insurance policy in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy) and, if any Obligor has failed to do so, the Servicer shall make all commercially
reasonable efforts to enforce all rights under the related Contract to ensure that such Obligor
obtains such insurance policies; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any other
provision hereof, in the event that such Obligor fails to obtain any such insurance policies, the
Servicer shall obtain such insurance policies on the Obligor’s behalf and at the Obligor’s expense
within thirty (30) days of the execution of such Contract (and, the Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement of any funds expended to obtain such insurance policies as provided in
Section 6.06; provided, that, the Servicer had first used good faith efforts to
obtain such reimbursement from such Obligor for at least ninety (90) days).

75

 

          (b) The Servicer may, and upon the request of the Agent shall, sue to enforce or collect upon
the Insurance Policies, in its own name (but in its capacity as Servicer), if possible, or as agent
of the Borrower, the Agent and the Lender. If the Servicer elects to commence a legal proceeding
to enforce an Insurance Policy, the act of commencement shall be deemed to be an automatic
assignment of the rights of the Borrower, the Agent and the Lender under such Insurance Policy to
the Servicer for purposes of collection only. If, however, in any enforcement suit or legal
proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not enforce an Insurance Policy on the grounds that it
is not an actual party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Insurance Policy, the
Borrower shall take such steps as the Servicer deems necessary to enforce such Insurance Policy,
including bringing suit in its name.

          SECTION 6.05. Maintenance of Security Interests in Pledged Assets. (a) The Servicer
(if LEAF Financial or one of its Affiliates) shall take all steps necessary, under all applicable
law, in order to (i) cause a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority perfected security
interest (or back-up security interest in the case of a true lease) to exist in favor of the Agent
(for the benefit of the Lender) in the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the First
Priority Assets and the other Pledged Receivables and in the Borrower’s right, title and interest
in and to Equipment, Related Security and Other Conveyed Property related to the foregoing and all
other Pledged Assets in which a security interest can be perfected by filing or possession under
the UCC (and the proceeds thereof) being Pledged hereunder, to secure a Loan on the Borrowing Date
thereof including (A) the filing of a UCC financing statement in the applicable jurisdiction
adequately describing the Borrower’s interest in the Equipment, Related Security and Other Conveyed
Property and naming the Borrower as debtor and the Agent as the secured party, and (B) filing
Obligor Financing Statements against all Obligors (except that UCC financing statements are not
required to have been filed against the related Obligor for any Equipment related to any Contract
that had an original equipment cost at origination of less than $50,000, or if such Contract
provides for a “nominal value” purchase option, of less than $25,000), (ii) ensure that such
security interest is and shall be prior to all other liens upon and security interests in the
Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to such First Priority Assets and other Pledged
Receivables (and the proceeds thereof) that now exist, or may hereafter arise or be created other
than Permitted Liens, and (iii) ensure that immediately prior to the Pledge of such Receivables by
the Borrower to the Agent (for the benefit of the Lender), such Equipment, Related Security and
Other Conveyed Property and all other Pledged Assets is free and clear of all Adverse Claims other
than Permitted Liens; and

          (b) The Servicer shall take all steps, as are necessary (subject to Section 6.05(a)),
to maintain perfection of the security interest in the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and
to the Equipment, Related Security and Other Conveyed Property related to each Pledged Receivable
and all other Pledged Assets (and the proceeds thereof) in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of
the Lender, including but not limited to, obtaining the execution by the Borrower and the
recording, registering, filing, re-recording, refiling, and reregistering of all security
agreements, financing statements and continuation statements as are necessary to maintain and/or
perfect such security interests granted by the Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Borrower and the Agent each hereby authorizes the Servicer, and the Servicer agrees,

of such loss. None of the Agent’s Bank or the Agent shall be liable for the amount of any loss

          SECTION 6.13. Access to Certain Documentation; Obligors. (a) The Lender or the Agent
(and their respective agents or professional advisors) shall at the expense of the Borrower, have
the right under this Agreement, twice during each calendar year (providing not less than five (5)
Business Days’ prior notice if the Backup Servicer is the Servicer), to examine and audit, during
business hours or at such other times as might be reasonable under applicable circumstances, any
and all of the books, records, financial statements or other information of the Servicer and/or the
Borrower, or held by another for the Servicer or the Borrower or on its behalf, concerning this
Agreement, provided, that the Borrower shall not be responsible for the expenses of the
Agent and the Lender to the extent that such expenses exceed $30,000 in the aggregate in any
calendar year unless an Event of Default or Servicer Default has occurred. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Lender or the Agent (and their respective agents or professional advisors) shall, at
the expense of the Borrower and as frequently as the Lender or the Agent may desire, have the right
under this Agreement after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Early
Amortization Event or Servicer Default to examine and audit, during business hours or at such other
times as might be reasonable under applicable circumstances, any and all of the books, records or
other information of the Servicer or the Borrower, or held by another for the Servicer or the
Borrower or on its behalf, concerning this Agreement. The Lender and the Agent (and their
respective agents and professional advisors) shall treat as confidential any information obtained
during the aforementioned examinations which is not already publicly known or available;
provided, however, that the Lender or the Agent may disclose such information if
required to do so by law or by any regulatory authority.

          (b) The Lender or the Agent (and their respective agents or professional advisors) shall, at
their own expense, have the right under this Agreement once each calendar quarter to contact a
reasonable number of Obligors with respect to any Receivables which are Pledged hereunder in order
to procure such information related to such Obligor, the related Contract, and the Receivables and
the other Pledged Assets as the Lender or the Agent deems reasonable under the circumstances to
perform positive confirmations on the Receivables in accordance with procedures mutually agreed
upon by the Agent and the Servicer. The Servicer and the Borrower hereby agree to cooperate with
the Lender and the Agent (and their respective agents or professional advisors) in connection with
any attempt thereby to contact any such Obligor and shall provide to the Lender and the Agent such
information as is needed in order to facilitate such contact. The Lender and the Agent (and their
respective agents and professional advisors) shall treat as confidential any information obtained
during any such contact with any

83

 

such Obligor which is not already publicly known or available; provided,
however, that the Lender or the Agent (and their respective agents or professional
advisors) may disclose such information if required to do so by law or by any regulatory authority.

          (c) From time to time, and at the sole expense of Borrower, the Agent or its designee may
request that the Borrower conduct background checks and investigations of Borrower’s principals or
key employees, using an established and reputable commercial background check company acceptable to

          SECTION 6.14. Backup Servicer.

          (a) Within one (1) Business Day prior to each Remittance Date, provided that the Backup
Servicer shall have received the information specified in Section 6.11(b) within the time
specified therein, the Backup Servicer shall compare the information on the computer tape or
diskette (or other means of electronic transmission acceptable to the Backup Servicer) most
recently delivered to the Backup Servicer with respect to such Remittance Date to the corresponding
Monthly Remittance Report delivered to the Backup Servicer by the Servicer as specified in
Section 6.11(b) and shall:

     (1) confirm that such Monthly Remittance Report is complete on its face;

     (2) confirm the distributions to be made on such Remittance Date pursuant to
Section 2.05(c) hereof to the extent the Backup Servicer is able to do so given the
information provided to it by the Servicer (it being hereby agreed that the Backup Servicer
shall promptly notify the Servicer and the Agent if such information is insufficient and
that such Servicer shall promptly provide to the Backup Servicer any additional information
required by the Backup Servicer);

     (3) confirm the following information on such Monthly Remittance Report: (i) Eligible
Receivables Balance, (ii) the Delinquency Rate, (iii) the Cumulative Net Loss Rate, (iv) the
Overconcentration Amount, (v) the Pledged Receivables Balance and (vi) the Capital Limit;
and

     (4) confirm such other information as the Agent and the Backup Servicer may agree;

          (b) Upon completion of such review, the Backup Servicer will provide the Agent and the
Servicer with a Backup Servicer Monthly Certification (in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit G) certifying that the Backup Servicer has completed the confirmations described in
subparagraphs (1) through (4) and reporting any discrepancies between the information set forth in
subparagraphs (2) or (3) above as calculated by the Servicer and that determined or calculated by
the Backup Servicer. In the event of a discrepancy as described in the preceding sentence, the
Backup Servicer shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancy with the Servicer prior to the related
Remittance Date, but in the absence of a reconciliation, distributions on the related Remittance
Date shall be made consistent with the information calculated by the Servicer, the Backup Servicer
shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancy prior to the next Remittance Date, and the Backup
Servicer shall promptly report to the Agent regarding the progress, if any, which shall have been
made in reconciling such

84

 

discrepancy. If the Backup Servicer is unable to reconcile such discrepancy with respect to
such Monthly Remittance Report by the next Remittance Date that falls in March, June, September or
December, the Backup Servicer may, if so required by the Agent, at the Borrower’s expense, retain
independent accountants to examine such Monthly Remittance Report and attempt to reconcile such
discrepancy at the earliest possible date (and the Backup Servicer shall promptly provide the Agent
with a report regarding such event). The effect, if any, of such reconciliation shall be reflected
in the Monthly Remittance Report for the next succeeding Remittance Date.

          (c) Other than as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall have no
obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer and shall
have no liability for any action taken or omitted by the Servicer.

          (d) If a Servicer Default shall occur and is continuing, then the Agent may, by written notice
to the Servicer, the Backup Servicer and the Borrower, terminate all of the rights and obligations
of the Servicer under this Agreement. Upon the delivery to the Servicer and the Backup Servicer of
such notice (or at such other time as set forth in such notice), all authority and power of the
Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Pledged Assets or otherwise, shall pass
to and be vested in the Backup Servicer pursuant to and under this Section (unless the Agent shall
have appointed a different successor Servicer pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof or the Backup
Servicer is unable to act as Servicer and a successor is appointed as provided in Section
6.14(f)), and, without limitation, the Backup Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney in fact or otherwise, any and all
documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination or to perform the duties of the
Servicer under this Agreement. After a Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Servicer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Agent and the Backup
Servicer in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder,
including, without limitation, providing notification to the Obligors of the assignment of the
servicing function, providing the Backup Servicer with all records, in electronic or other form,
reasonably requested by it to enable the Backup Servicer to assume the servicing functions
hereunder and the transfer to the Backup Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts
which at the time should be or should have been deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account
or thereafter be received by the Servicer with respect to the Pledged Receivables and the Pledged
Assets related thereto and providing the Backup Servicer with reasonable access to the Servicer’s
premises and employees and providing a list of contact information for key servicing employees.
Neither the Agent nor the Backup Servicer shall be deemed to have breached any obligation hereunder
as a result of a failure to make or delay in making any distribution as and when required hereunder
caused by the failure of the initial Servicer to remit any amounts received by it or to deliver any
documents held by it with respect to the Pledged Assets.

          (e) Any obligations of LEAF Financial under any Transaction Document other than in its
capacity as Servicer shall continue in effect notwithstanding LEAF Financial’s termination as
Servicer.

          (f) On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to this
Section 6.14 (or at such other time as set forth in such notice), the Backup

85

 

Servicer shall be (and the Backup Servicer hereby agrees to be) the successor in all respects
to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or
provided for herein and shall have all the rights and powers and be subject thereafter to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and
provisions hereof; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities
caused by the initial Servicer’s failure to provide information required by this Section
6.14 shall not be considered a default by the Backup Servicer hereunder; provided,
further, however, that the Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer, shall have (i)
no liability with respect to any obligation which was required to be performed by the terminated
Servicer prior to the date that the Backup Servicer becomes the successor to the Servicer or any
claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer, (ii) no
obligation to perform any repurchase obligations, if any, of the Servicer, (iii) no obligation to
pay any taxes required to be paid by the Servicer (provided that the Backup Servicer shall pay any
income taxes for which it is liable), (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any
other party to the transactions contemplated hereby, (v) no liability or obligation with respect to
any Servicer indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer, including the original Servicer and
(vi) no advancing obligation under this Agreement. The indemnification obligations of the Backup
Servicer, upon becoming a successor Servicer, are expressly limited to those arising on account of
its failure to act in good faith and with reasonable care under the circumstances. In addition, the
Backup Servicer shall have no liability relating to the representations and warranties of the
Servicer contained in Article IV, no obligation to make any payments with respect to any
losses on investments made by or at the direction of the Servicer, no liability with respect to the
performance of any sub-servicers appointed by any prior Servicer, no obligation to expend or risk
its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights and powers in which in its reasonable opinion
subjects it to any liability in connection with any such legal action unless it shall have been
assured to its reasonable satisfaction that it will be indemnified for such liabilities, no
obligation to file or record any financing statements or other documents in order to perfect or
continue any security interests contemplated hereunder unless it has been directed by the Agent to
make such filing or recordation, and no liability with respect to any action performed, or breaches
or defaults caused by any prior Servicer prior to its appointment, or any claim of a third party
based on any alleged action of any prior Servicer. Notwithstanding the above, the Agent may, if the
Backup Servicer shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if the Backup Servicer is unable to so act,
or if the Lender so requests in writing to the Agent, appoint itself, or appoint any other
established servicing institution acceptable to the Agent, in its sole discretion, as the successor
to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or
liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer
hereunder, and after the Agent notifies the Servicer to discontinue performing servicing functions
under this Agreement, the Backup Servicer (or the Agent if there is no Backup Servicer) shall act
in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
Agent may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor
 out of payments on Pledged
Receivables as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that, except
as provided herein, no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer
hereunder, unless agreed to by the Lender and such compensation is on commercially competitive
terms and rates. The Borrower, the Agent and such successor

86

 

Servicer shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to
effectuate any such succession.

          (g) The Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer, undertakes to perform only such duties and
obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being expressly understood by all
parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of the successor Servicer hereunder.
All authority and power granted to the Servicer under this Agreement shall automatically cease and
terminate upon termination of the Servicer hereunder pursuant to Section 6.01(a), and,
unless otherwise determined by the Agent, shall pass to and be vested in the Backup Servicer, as
successor Servicer, and, without limitation, the Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer, is hereby
authorized and empowered to on and after the date of such succession execute and deliver, on behalf
of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments, and to do
and accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such
transfer of servicing rights. The Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer, is authorized to accept
and rely on all accounting records (including computer records) and work product of the prior
Servicer hereunder relating to the Pledged Assets without any audit or other examination unless the
Backup Servicer shall have actual knowledge or reasonable belief that the accounting records or
work product of the prior Servicer are inaccurate. The Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer,
shall notify the Agent of such inaccuracies.

          (h) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Backup Servicer
acting as the successor Servicer is authorized to accept and rely on all of the accounting, records
(including computer records) and work of the Servicer relating to the Contracts (collectively, the
“Predecessor Servicer Work Product”) without any audit or other examination thereof, and
the Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for the acts and omissions
of the Servicer. If any error, inaccuracy, omission or incorrect or nonstandard practice or
procedure (collectively, “Errors”) exist in any Predecessor Servicer Work Product and such
Errors make it materially more difficult to service or should cause or materially contribute to the
Servicer making or continuing any Errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), the Servicer
shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability to perform servicing for such Continued
Errors; provided, however, that the Servicer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to
prevent further Continued Errors. In the event that the Servicer becomes aware of Errors or
Continued Errors, the Servicer shall, with the prior consent of the Agent, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to reconstruct and reconcile such data to correct such Errors and Continued
Errors and to prevent future Continued Errors.

          (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Backup Servicer becomes the
successor Servicer, it may resign as Servicer upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to the
parties hereto.

          (j) The Backup Servicer may resign as Backup Servicer upon ninety (90) days’ prior written
notice to the parties hereto

          (k) The Backup Servicer shall have no duties or obligations other than those specifically set
forth herein or as may subsequently be agreed to in writing by the parties hereto,

87

 

it being understood by the parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of
the Backup Servicer under this Agreement.

          (l) The Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any action or omission to act hereunder,
except for its own bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence. In no event shall the Backup
Servicer in its capacity as Backup Servicer or successor Servicer, or any of its directors,
officers, agents and employees be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages from
any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith even if
advised of the possibility of such damages.

          (m) The Backup Servicer will not have any liability for failure to perform or delay in
performing duties set forth herein if the failure or delay is due to an event of force majeure. A
force majeure is an event or condition beyond the Backup Servicer’s control, such as a natural
disaster, civil unrest, state of war, or act terrorism. The Backup Servicer will make reasonable
efforts to prevent performance delays or disruptions in the event of such occurrences.

          (n) The Backup Servicer shall be under no obligation to pay any taxes required to be paid by
the Servicer or any other party hereto.

          (o) The Backup Servicer is authorized to accept and rely on all records (including computer
records) and work product of the Servicer hereunder without any audit or other examination.

          (p) The Backup Servicer may, at its own cost and expense, allow a subservicer to perform any
and all of its duties and responsibilities hereunder, including but not limited to its duties as
successor Servicer hereunder, should the Backup Servicer become the successor Servicer pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Backup Servicer shall remain liable for
the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder to the same extent as if no such
subservicing had occurred.

          (q) The amounts invested in Permitted Investments may be invested in bonds or funds managed or
administered by the Backup Servicer. If Permitted Investments are invested in funds managed or
administered by the Backup Servicer, the Backup Servicer will be entitled to receive a fee from
such funds in which the Permitted Investment are invested. Such fees are in addition to any fees
payable hereunder. The Agent hereby acknowledges that various potential and actual conflicts of
interest that may exist with respect to the Backup Servicer as described above; provided,
however, that nothing in this Section 6.14(q) shall be construed as altering the
duties of the Backup Servicer, including, but not limited to its duties as successor Servicer, as
set forth in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents nor the requirements of any law, rule, or
regulation applicable to the Backup Servicer.

          SECTION 6.15. Additional Remedies of Agent Upon Event of Default. During the
continuance of any Event of Default, the Agent, in addition to the rights specified in
Section 7.01, shall have the right, in its own name and as agent for the Lender, to take
all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and
remedies and to protect the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Agent and the
Lender (including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other
proceedings and the filings

88

 

of proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided
in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy,
each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or
omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed
to be a waiver of any Event of Default.

          SECTION 6.16. Waiver of Defaults. Upon consent of the Lender, the Agent may waive any
default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences.
Notice of such waiver shall be provided to the Backup Servicer. Upon any such waiver of a past
default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be
deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall be
effective unless it shall be in writing and signed by the Agent on the Lender’s behalf and no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon
except to the extent expressly so waived.

          SECTION 6.17. Maintenance of Certain Insurance. (a) During the term of its service as
Servicer, the Servicer shall maintain in force an employee fidelity/dishonesty insurance policy, in
each case, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 in a form that would cover any loss of Collections
by the Servicer hereunder caused by employee dishonesty and with an insurance company reasonably
acceptable to the Lender and the Agent. The Servicer shall deliver a copy of such
fidelity/dishonesty insurance policy to the Agent on the Closing Date together with a certification
from the applicable insurance company that such policy is in force on the Closing Date.

          (b) The Servicer shall prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Agent and the Lender,
claims under any such policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy, and
upon, the filing of any claim on any policy described in this Section 6.17, the Servicer
shall promptly notify the Agent of such claim.

          SECTION 6.18. Segregation of Collections. The Servicer shall not commingle funds
received by it constituting Collections with any other funds of the Servicer and shall remit any
Collections received by it to the Collection Account as set forth in Section 6.02.

          SECTION 6.19. UCC Matters; Protection and Perfection of Pledged Assets.

          (a) The Borrower will not change the jurisdiction of its formation or type of organization or
make any change to its corporate name or use any tradenames, fictitious names, assumed names,
“doing business as” names or other names (other than those listed on Schedule II hereto, as
such schedule may be revised from time to time to reflect name changes and name usage permitted
under the terms of this Section 6.19 after compliance with all terms and conditions of this
Section 6.19 related thereto) unless, prior to the effective date of any such jurisdiction
change, organization type change, name change or use, the Borrower notifies the Agent of such
change in writing and delivers to the Agent such financing statements as the Agent may reasonably
request in order to maintain the perfection and priority of its security interest in the Pledged
Assets, as a result of such jurisdiction change, organization type change, name change or use,
together with such other documents and instruments as the Agent may reasonably request in order to
maintain the perfection and priority of its security interest in the Pledged

89

 

Assets, as a result of such change. The Borrower will not change the location of its chief
executive office or principal place of business or the location of its records regarding the
Pledged Receivables unless, prior to the effective date of any such change of location, the
Borrower notifies the Agent of such change of location in writing and delivers to the Agent such
documents and instruments as the Agent may request in connection therewith. The Borrower agrees
that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further
instruments and documents, and take all further action that the Agent may reasonably request in
order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Lender’s interest in the Pledged Assets
acquired hereunder, or to enable the Lender or the Agent to exercise or enforce any of their
respective rights hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower will,
upon the request of the Agent execute (if necessary) and file such financing or continuation
statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as
may be necessary or appropriate or as the Agent may request in order to maintain the perfection and
priority of its security interest in the Pledged Assets. Each of the Borrower, the Seller and the
Servicer will mark its master data processing records evidencing such Pledged Receivables with a
legend acceptable to the Agent, evidencing that the Lender has acquired an interest therein as
provided in this Agreement. The Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the filings or
registrations made by or on behalf of the Borrower without any independent investigation and the
Borrower’s obligation to make such filings as evidence that such filings have been made. The
Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and
amendments thereto and assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Pledged Receivables and
the Other Conveyed Property and the Related Security related thereto and the proceeds of the
foregoing now existing or hereafter arising, without the signature of the Borrower where permitted
by law. The Borrower hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Agent of any such financing
statement made prior to the Closing Date. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this
Agreement or any financing statement covering the Pledged Receivables, or any part thereof, shall
be sufficient as a financing statement. The Borrower shall, upon the request of the Agent at any
time after the occurrence of an Event of Default and at the Borrower’s expense, notify the Obligors
obligated to pay any Pledged Receivables, or any of them, of the security interest of the Lender in
the Pledged Assets. If the Borrower fails to perform any of its agreements or obligations under
this Section 6.19, the Agent may (but shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause
performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the expenses of the Agent incurred in connection
therewith shall be payable by the Borrower upon the Agent’s demand therefor. For purposes of
enabling the Agent to exercise its rights described in the preceding sentence and elsewhere in this
Article VI, the Borrower and the Lender hereby authorize each of the Agent and its
successors and assigns to take any and all steps in the Borrower’s name and on behalf of the
Borrower and the Lender necessary or desirable, in the determination of the Agent, to collect all
amounts due under any and all Pledged Receivables and other Pledged Assets, including, without
limitation, endorsing the Borrower’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections
and enforcing such Pledged Receivables and the related Contracts and, if any, the related
guarantees.

          (b) In the event that the sale or contribution of a Receivable by the Seller to the Borrower
under the Purchase and Contribution Agreement and the Pledge of such Receivable by the Borrower to
the Agent, for the benefit of the Lender, hereunder are insufficient, without a notation on a
related Vehicle’s certificate of title, or without fulfilling any additional administrative
requirements under the laws of the state in which such Vehicle is located, to

90

 

assign the ownership of such Vehicle to the Borrower or to perfect a security interest in such
Vehicle (and the proceeds thereof) in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Lender, the
parties hereto agree that designation of the Obligor as owner on the certificate of title and
either Custodian or LEAF Funding inc. under the Lienholder Nominee Agreement as the lienholder on
the certificate of title with respect to such Vehicle in its capacity as agent of the Borrower and
the Agent, for the benefit of the Lender, as their interests may appear, shall be sufficient until
such notations are made or additional administrative requirements are fulfilled.

          SECTION 6.20. Receipt of Lien Certificates. Any Pledged Receivable for which the
Servicer shall not have (i) (A) if such Vehicle was leased to an Obligor pursuant to a Lease
Contract (other than a Lease Contract which provides for a “nominal value” purchase option),
received a Lien Certificate showing Borrower or Custodian under the Lienholder Nominee Agreement as
secured party with respect to the related Vehicle from the applicable Registrar of Titles or (B) if
such Vehicle was sold to an Obligor pursuant to an Installment Contract or a Lease Contract which
provides for a “nominal value” purchase option, the original copy of the certificate of title or
Lien Certificate for such Vehicle which such certificate of title or Lien Certificate indicates the
Obligor, as owner and the Borrower, the Servicer, the Custodian or another lienholder (for the
benefit of the Agent and the Borrower) thereunder as lienholder or secured party and (ii) delivered
such Lien Certificate to the Custodian, in each case, within 180 days of the first day of inclusion
of such Pledged Receivable secured by such Vehicle in the calculation of the Eligible Receivables
Balance, shall no longer be an Eligible Receivable and, therefore, shall no longer be included in
the calculation of the Eligible Receivables Balance. In the case of any Receivable excluded from
the calculation of the Eligible Receivables Balance pursuant to the previous sentence, the
Receivable so excluded from the calculation of the Eligible Receivables Balance may at a later time
be included in the calculation of the Eligible Receivables Balance, provided, that (i) the
Custodian shall have received a Lien Certificate showing Borrower or Custodian under the Lienholder
Nominee Agreement as secured party with respect to the related Vehicle from the applicable
Registrar of Titles and (ii) such Receivable is otherwise an Eligible Receivable at such time.

          SECTION 6.21. Compliance with Applicable Law. Each LEAF Party shall at all times
comply with all requirements of applicable federal, state and local laws, and regulations
thereunder (including, without limitation, laws relating to usury, truth-in-lending, fair credit
billing, fair credit reporting, fair debt collection practices, privacy, consumer credit protection
and disclosure, consumer credit, equal credit opportunity and the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act, the
Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Billing Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair
Debt Collection Practices Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act,
the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulations “B” and “Z”, the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of
1940 and state adaptations of the National Consumer Act and of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code and
all other consumer credit laws and equal credit opportunity and disclosure laws) in the conduct of
its business.

          SECTION 6.22. Performance and Compliance; Servicer Activities.

          (a) At their expense, the Borrower and Servicer shall timely and fully perform and comply, in
all material respects, with all material provisions, covenants and other promises required to be
observed by each of them under the Contracts related to the Pledged Receivables.

91

 

          (b) The Borrower and Servicer shall comply in all material respects with the Credit and
Collection Policy in regard to each Contract related to Pledged Receivables.

          SECTION 6.23. Change in Agreements and Accounts. The Servicer shall not make any
amendment, change or other modification to the terms of the Custodial Agreement, or any other
document, agreement or arrangement relating to any of the Master DDA Control Agreement, the
Collateral Account Agreement or to its instructions to Obligors required to be made in compliance
with this Agreement, unless the Agent shall have consented thereto in each instance.

          SECTION 6.24. Computer Software. The Servicer shall have and maintain all necessary
software licenses to operate software (including, but not limited to, InfoLease) in order to
perform the duties of the Servicer under the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation,
servicing the Receivables and other Pledged Assets and to review the monthly computer tape or
diskette delivered pursuant to Section 6.14(a)). The Backup Servicer shall have and
maintain all necessary software licenses to operate software to review the monthly computer tape or
diskette delivered pursuant to Section 6.14(a).

94

 

event described in Section 7.01(a) above, the Early Amortization Commencement Date shall be
deemed to have occurred automatically upon the occurrence of such event. Upon consent of the

Lender may declare the Loans made to the Borrower hereunder and all Yield and all Fees accrued on
such Loans and any other Obligations to be immediately due and payable by written notice to the
Borrower that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and the Borrower shall pay such
Loans and all such amounts and Obligations immediately), provided, that this clause
(iv) shall not apply with respect to an event described in clause (i) of the definition
of Early Amortization Event until the occurrence of a Lender Amortization Event, (v) at the option
of the Lender in its sole discretion, the Lender may pursuant to Section 6.05(c) instruct

Equipment related to each Pledged Receivable (and the proceeds of such Equipment) on behalf of the
Borrower and to create and/or maintain perfection of the security interest in the security interest
of the Borrower in any Equipment related to each Pledged Receivable and (vi) at the option of the
Lender in its sole discretion, the Agent, on behalf of the Lender, may direct the Obligors to make
all payments under the Pledged Receivables directly to the Backup Servicer or a successor Servicer,
the Agent, the Lender or any lockbox or account established by any of such parties. In addition,
upon any such declaration or upon any such automatic occurrence, the Agent and the Lender 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. If any Event of Default shall have occurred, the CP Rate
shall be increased to the Default Funding Rate, effective as of the date of the occurrence of such
Event of Default.

declaration that the Loans made to the Borrower hereunder are immediately due and payable pursuant
to Section 7.01 or (ii) on the Facility Maturity Date, the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the Loans, all accrued Fees and Yield and any other Obligations then due are not
immediately paid in full, then the Agent, in addition to all other rights specified hereunder,
shall have the right, in its own name and as agent for the Lender, to immediately sell in a
commercially reasonable manner, in a recognized market (if one exists) at such price or prices as

95

 

the Agent may reasonably deem satisfactory, any or all Pledged Assets and apply the proceeds
thereof to the Obligations in the priorities provided in Section 2.06(a).

          (b) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to sell all of the Pledged Assets on a
particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because
the market for such Pledged Assets may not be liquid. Accordingly, the Agent may elect, in its
sole discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Pledged Assets, and nothing contained
herein shall obligate the Agent to liquidate any Pledged Assets on the date the Lender declares the
Loans made to the Borrower hereunder to be immediately due and payable pursuant to
Section 7.01 or to liquidate all Pledged Assets in the same manner or on the same Business
Day.

          (c) Any amounts received from any sale or liquidation of the Pledged Assets pursuant to this
Section 7.02 in excess of the Obligations will be returned to the Borrower, its successors
or assigns, or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

          (d) The Agent and the Lenders shall have, in addition to all the rights and remedies provided
herein and provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including, without
limitation, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC of any applicable state, to
the extent that the UCC is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), and all
rights and remedies available to the Lenders at law, in equity or under any other agreement between
the Lender and the Borrower.

          (e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this
Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in
addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair
any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Early Amortization Event or Event
of Default.

          (f) The parties hereto agree that, at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to the
Borrower of the time and place of any such public sale or the time after which any private sale is
to be made shall constitute commercially reasonable notification.

personal liability whatsoever shall attach to or be incurred by any administrator of the Lender or
the Agent or any incorporator, stockholder, affiliate, officer, employee or director of the Lender
or the Agent or of any such administrator, as such, or any of them, under or by reason of any of
the obligations, covenants or agreements of the Lender or the Agent contained in this Agreement or
in any other such instruments, documents or agreements, or which are implied therefrom, and that
any and all personal liability of every such administrator of the Lender or the Agent and each
incorporator, stockholder, affiliate, officer, employee or director of the Lender or the Agent or
of any such administrator, or any of them, for breaches by the Lender or the Agent of any such
obligations, covenants or agreements, which liability may arise either at common law or in equity,
by statute or constitution, or otherwise, is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in
consideration for the execution of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 9.10
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

          SECTION 9.11. Execution in Counterparts; Severability; Integration. This Agreement
may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. In the event that any provision in or obligation
under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or
obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. This
Agreement contains the final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties
hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among
the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior oral or written
understandings other than the Fee Letter.

          SECTION 9.12. Tax Characterization. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement,
the parties hereto intend that the Loans advanced hereunder shall constitute indebtedness of the
Borrower for federal income tax purposes.

          SECTION 9.13. Lender’s Obligations. Notwithstanding any other provision to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, Autobahn’s (and any other Lender which is a CP Conduit’s)
obligations hereunder shall be payable by such CP Conduit Lender solely from (and

106

 

no recourse shall be had against such CP Conduit Lender for the payment of any of the
foregoing except from) (i) funds obtained through the issuance of commercial paper notes in the
United States commercial paper market or (ii) funds obtained under the Liquidity/Credit Enhancement
Facility. Any amount which such CP Conduit Lender does not pay pursuant to the operation of the
preceding sentence shall not constitute a claim as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code
against such CP Conduit Lender for any such insufficiency. The provisions of this Section 9.13
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

          SECTION 9.14. Agent and Affiliates. With respect to any interests which may be
assigned by the Lender to DZ Bank, DZ Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement as would the Lender if it were holding such interests and may exercise the same as though
it were not the Agent. DZ Bank and its Affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business
with the Borrower, the Servicer, the Originator, the Seller or any Obligor, any of their respective
Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower, the Servicer,
the Originator, the Seller or any Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates, all as if DZ Bank
were not the Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lender or any Liquidity
Provider.

          SECTION 9.15. Lending Decisions. The Lender acknowledges that it has, independently
and without reliance upon the Agent, DZ Bank or any Affiliate of DZ Bank, and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own evaluation and decision to
enter into this Agreement and, if it so determines, to make Loans hereunder. The Lender and each
Liquidity Provider also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Agent, DZ Bank or any Affiliate of DZ Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement.

          SECTION 9.16. Delegation of Duties. The Agent may each execute any of its duties
under this Agreement by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of
counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for
the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable
care.

          SECTION 9.17. Successor Agent. The Agent may, upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the
Borrower, the Servicer, the Lender and each other party hereto, resign as Agent. If DZ Bank shall
resign as Agent under this Agreement, then the Lender during such thirty-day period shall appoint a
successor agent that is, (as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing),
reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights,
powers and duties of the Agent and references herein to the Agent shall mean such successor agent,
effective upon its appointment; and such former Agent’s rights, powers and duties in such capacity
shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or
any of the parties to this Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as such
agent, the provisions of Article VIII and this Article IX shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this
Agreement.

rate per annum equal to the interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest
1/100 of 1%) reported on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the end of the immediately
preceding Interest Period on Reuters LIBOR01 Page (British Bankers Association Settlement Rate) as
the London Interbank Offered Rate for United States dollar deposits having a term of thirty (30)
days and in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or more (or, if such page shall cease to be publicly
available or, if the information contained on such page, in each applicable Lender’s sole
judgment, shall cease to accurately reflect such London Interbank Offered Rate, such rate as
reported by any publicly available recognized source of similar market data selected by such Lender
that, in such Lender’s reasonable judgment, accurately reflects such London Interbank Offered
Rate).

Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time
shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or any fee payable
hereunder, as the case may be; provided, however, that with respect to the
calculation of interest, such extension of time shall not be included in more than one Interest

Section 2.02 is not for any reason whatsoever, except as a result of the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, made or effectuated, as the case may be,
on the date specified therefor, the Borrower shall indemnify such Lender against any loss, cost or
expense incurred by such Lender related thereto (other than any such loss, cost or expense solely
due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender or an Affiliate thereof),
including, without limitation, any loss (including cost of funds and reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or
other funds acquired by such Lender to fund Loans or maintain Loans made by such Lender during such
Interest Period. The applicable Lender shall provide to the Borrower documentation setting forth
the amounts of any loss, cost or expense referred to in the previous sentence, such documentation
to be conclusive absent manifest error.

36

 

     SECTION 2.08 Fees. (a) The Borrower shall pay Morgan Stanley, as Class A Lender, and
Morgan Stanley AFI, as Class B Lender, certain fees, including the Exit Fee (the “Fees”),

     SECTION 2.09 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. (a) If, due to either (i) the
introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or
increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation (including,
without limitation, any law or regulation resulting in any interest payments paid to any Lender
under this Agreement being subject to United States withholding tax) or (ii) the compliance with
any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not
having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender or any Affiliate,
successor or assign or participant thereof (each of which shall be an “Affected Party”) of
agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan (or any reduction of the amount of any
payment (whether of principal, interest, fee, compensation or otherwise) to any Affected Party
hereunder), as the case may be, the Borrower shall, from time to time, within ten days after
written demand complying with Section 2.09(c) by such Lender, on behalf of such Affected
Party, pay to such Lender, on behalf of such Affected Party, additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Affected Party for such increased costs or reduced payments.

     (b) If either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law,
guideline, rule or regulation, directive, request or accounting principle or (ii) the compliance by
any Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive, request or accounting
principle from any central bank, other governmental authority, agency or accounting authority
(whether or not having the force of law), including, without limitation, compliance by an Affected
Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Affected Party, as a consequence of its
obligations hereunder or any related document or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a
level below that which any such Affected Party could have achieved but for such introduction,
change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Party with respect to
capital adequacy), by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material, then, from time to
time, after demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting
forth the basis of such demand), each Lender shall be paid, on behalf of such Affected Party (from
Collections with respect to Pledged Receivables pursuant to, and subject to the priority of payment
set forth in, Section 2.04), such additional amounts as will compensate such Affected Party
for such reduction.

     (c) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.09, the Affected Party
may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Each Lender, on behalf of any Affected
Party making a claim under this Section 2.09, shall submit to the Borrower a certificate
setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the computations of such additional or
increased costs, which certificate shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

37

 

     (d) If, as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in
Section 2.09(a) or 2.09(b), any Affected Party (that is a Lender) is required to
compensate a bank or other financial institution (including, without limitation, any Affiliate of
Morgan Stanley) providing liquidity support, credit enhancement or other similar support to such
Affected Party in connection with this Agreement, then, upon demand by such Affected Party, the

Agent or any of its Affiliates to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under any such
Assigned Document. In addition, each of the Servicer and the Borrower confirms and agrees that the
Servicer and the Borrower will, upon receipt of notice or discovery thereof, promptly send to the

such Class B Notes free and clear of any liens created or granted by the holders of such Class B
Notes)) the entire (but not less than the entire) outstanding principal amount of Class B Notes

principal amount of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Class B Notes (including any
make-whole premium payable) and all other amounts then payable to the holder(s) of the Class B
Notes under this Agreement. The purchase of the Class B Notes pursuant to this Section shall close

Financial, Resource America, any of their respective subsidiaries or any LEAF Affiliate Borrower
fails to observe or perform any covenant or agreement under any LEAF Credit Facility Document or
(ii) any event of default, servicer default, unmatured event of default or unmatured servicer
default (each such event set forth in clause (i) or (ii), an “Other
Default”) occurs under any such LEAF Credit Facility Document, whether or not such Other
Default is called, waived or cured.

     (aa) LEAF Financial shall not and shall not cause any subordinated Debt of LEAF Financial or
any of its consolidated subsidiaries, in either case, which has been issued to such Person’s
parent, to be accelerated prior to the Facility Maturity Date.

     SECTION 5.02 Check-in Requirements.

     (a) The Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that, (i) not later than 20 days after the
Borrowing Date, it shall cause to be delivered to the Custodian the Priority Documents related to
Contracts whose aggregate Amortized Equipment Cost constitutes not less than 50% of the aggregate
Amortized Equipment Cost of all Contracts, and (ii) not later than 40 days after the Borrowing

thereunder) for Contracts whose aggregate Amortized Equipment Cost constitutes not more than 5% of
the aggregate Amortized Equipment Cost of all Contracts.

     (b) The Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that if the aggregate Discounted Balance of all
Contracts for which the Custodian has received only a Certified True Copy exceeds the aforesaid 5%
limit for any period exceeding fifteen days, then on the first Business Day after such fifteenth

requirements of Section 4.03 hereof with respect to all such Pledged Receivables.

     (c) The Custodian hereby agrees that, within one Business Day (to the extent the number of
Receivable Files received on any Business Day is no greater than 1,000 and that such Receivable
Files are delivered to the Custodian in the same order as the Receivable Schedule) or within such
greater number of Business Days as the parties hereto mutually agree (to the extent the number of
Receivable Files received on any Business Day exceeds 1,000), it shall deliver to the Borrower,
each Lender and the Servicer (i) a Collateral Receipt for all Receivable Files received on that
date and (ii) an Exception Report) covering any Deficiencies noted in such Collateral Receipt.

therewith within fifteen noncomplying days after receipt of an Exception Report with respect to any
such Deficiency pursuant to this Section 5.02(d), on the first Business Day after, resell
the Pledged Receivables related to all such Contracts to the Originator, deposit the Release Price
for each such Pledged Receivable to the Collection Account and remit to the respective Lenders (no

as a partial prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes (together with interest
accrued and unpaid on such prepayment through such date of prepayment), pro rata
according to their respective Percentages, and otherwise comply with the requirements of
Section 4.03 hereof with respect to all such Pledged Receivables.

2008, the Servicer shall deliver to the Backup Servicer all Servicing Agreement Electronic Images
in an electronic format mutually acceptable to the Servicer and the Backup Servicer with respect to
all then existing servicing agreements and vendor contracts which had not previously been delivered
to the Backup Servicer.

ARTICLE VI

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING; CERTAIN COVENANTS

     SECTION 6.01 Appointment and Designation of the Servicer. (a) The Borrower and the
Lenders hereby appoint the Person designated by the Controlling Holders from time to time, pursuant
to this Section 6.01 (the “Servicer”), as their agent to service, administer and
collect the Pledged Receivables and otherwise to enforce their respective rights and interests in
and under the Pledged Receivables and the other Pledged Assets. The Servicer shall collect such
Pledged Receivables under the conditions referred to above by means of the collection procedures as
set forth in the Credit and Collection Policy, to the extent consistent with the provisions of this
Article VI. Unless otherwise specified by the Borrower, the Servicer’s authorization under
this Agreement shall terminate on the Collection Date. Until the Controlling Holders give notice
to the Borrower of a designation of a new Servicer upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Servicer Default, or consents in writing to the appointment by the

56

 

Borrower of a new Servicer, LEAF Financial is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to
perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer, pursuant to the terms hereof at all times
until the earlier of the Controlling Holders’ designation of the Backup Servicer or any other
Person as the new Servicer (upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Servicer
Default), the delivery by the Controlling Holders of their written consent to the appointment by
the Borrower of a new Servicer or the Collection Date. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Servicer Default, the Controlling Holders may at any time designate as Servicer
the Backup Servicer, or any other Person with demonstrated experience in servicing equipment leases
and loans, to succeed LEAF Financial or any successor Servicer, on the condition in each case that
any such Person so designated shall agree to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer
pursuant to (i) the terms hereof or (ii) such other terms as are agreed to in writing by such
successor Servicer and the Controlling Holders, and which (x) require such successor Servicer to
service the Pledged Receivables in a commercially reasonable manner that is (A) consistent with the
servicing of similar equipment leases and loans by such successor Servicer and (B) no less
stringent than the servicing standard required by the Credit and Collection Policy and (y) does not
provide for payment of servicing or other fees which in the aggregate exceed the Servicing Fee as
in effect on the date hereof without the prior written consent of the Lenders (such other terms
described in this clause (ii) being set forth in a separate servicing agreement, such
agreement, a “Successor Servicing Agreement”).

     Each of the Borrower and LEAF Financial hereby grants to any successor Servicer an irrevocable
power of attorney to take any and all steps in the Borrower’s, LEAF Financial’s or the Servicer’s
name, as applicable, and on behalf of the Borrower or LEAF Financial, necessary or desirable, in
the determination of such successor Servicer, to service, administer or collect any and all Pledged
Receivables. In accordance therewith, each of the Borrower and LEAF Financial shall deliver an
executed power of attorney in the form of Exhibit J hereto to each of the Backup Servicer
and the Collateral Agent.

     (b) The Servicer is hereby authorized to act for the Borrower and the Lenders and, in such
capacity, shall manage, service, administer and arrange collections on the Pledged Receivables and
perform the other actions required by the Servicer under this Agreement (including, without
limitation, the covenant set forth in Section 5.01(y) hereof) for the benefit of the
Lenders. The Servicer agrees that its servicing of the Pledged Receivables shall be carried out in
accordance with customary and usual procedures of institutions which service equipment lease and
loan contracts and receivables and, to the extent more exacting, the degree of skill and attention
that the Servicer exercises from time to time, with respect to all comparable equipment lease and
loan contracts and receivables that it services for itself or others in accordance with the Credit
and Collection Policy (or if the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer has been appointed
as Servicer, the Backup Servicer’s or such other successor Servicer’s customary collection
policies) and, to the extent more exacting, the requirements of this Article VI. The
Servicer’s duties shall include, without limitation, collecting and posting of all Collections with
respect to any Pledged Receivable, responding to inquiries of Obligors on the Pledged Receivables,
investigating delinquencies, sending invoices, payment statements or payment books to Obligors,
reporting any required tax information to Obligors, policing the collateral, enforcing the terms of
the Contracts (and any documents related thereto) related to any Pledged Receivables, complying
with the terms of the Lockbox Agreement, accounting for Collections

57

 

with respect to any Pledged Receivable, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the
Lenders with respect to distributions and performing the other duties specified herein.

     (c) Following the occurrence of a Servicer Default which is then continuing, the Collateral
Agent, at the direction of the Controlling Holders acting in their sole discretion, may direct the
Obligors to make all payments under the Pledged Receivables directly to the Backup Servicer, a
successor Servicer, the Collateral Agent or any lockbox or account established by any of such
parties. Any Collections received in any lockbox or account established pursuant to this clause
(c) (or received directly by any Lender or the Collateral Agent) shall be applied to the
Obligations in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.04.

     (d) To the extent consistent with the standards, policies and procedures otherwise required
hereby, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in
connection with such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem necessary
or desirable. The Servicer is authorized to release liens on Obligor Collateral in order to
collect Insurance Proceeds with respect thereto and to liquidate such Obligor Collateral in
accordance with its customary standards, policies and procedures; provided,
however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not, (i) except pursuant
to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction, release an Obligor from payment of any unpaid
amount under any Pledged Receivable or (ii) waive the right to collect the unpaid balance of any
Pledged Receivable from such Obligor, except that, subject to Section 6.02(a), the Servicer
may forego collection efforts if the amount which the Servicer, in its reasonable judgment, expects
to realize in connection with such collection efforts is determined by the Servicer, in its
reasonable judgment, to be less than the reasonably expected costs of pursuing such collection
efforts and if the Servicer would forego such collection efforts in accordance with its customary
procedures. The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name (in its capacity as
Servicer), if possible, or in the name of the Borrower or the Lenders (provided that if the
Servicer is acting in the name of the Borrower or the Lenders, the Servicer shall have obtained the
Borrower’s or the Lenders’ consent, as the case may be, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), a legal proceeding to enforce any Pledged Receivable (or any terms or provisions of the
related Contract) or to commence or participate in any other legal proceeding (including, without
limitation, a bankruptcy proceeding) relating to or involving a Pledged Receivable or any related
Contract, Obligor or Obligor Collateral. If the Servicer commences or participates in such a legal
proceeding in its own name, the Borrower or the Lenders, as the case may be, shall thereupon be
deemed to have automatically assigned such Pledged Receivable to the Servicer solely for purposes
of commencing or participating in any such proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is
authorized and empowered by the Borrower or the Lenders, as the case may be, to execute and deliver
in the Servicer’s name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits or other
documents or instruments in connection with any such proceeding. The Borrower or the Lenders, as
the case may be, shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents which
the Servicer may reasonably request in writing and which the Servicer deems necessary or
appropriate and take any other steps which the Servicer may deem necessary or appropriate to enable
the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement. If,
however, in any suit or legal proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not prosecute such suit
or legal proceeding on the grounds that it is not an actual party in interest or a holder entitled
to enforce such suit or legal proceeding, the

58

 

Borrower shall take such steps as the Servicer deems necessary to prosecute such suit or legal
proceeding, including bringing suit in its name.

     SECTION 6.02 Collection of Receivable Payments; Modification and Amendment of Receivables;
Lockbox Agreements. (a) Consistent with and subject to the standards, policies and procedures
required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall collect all payments called for under the terms and
provisions of the Contracts related to the Pledged Receivables (and the terms and provisions of any
documents related thereto) as and when the same shall become due and shall follow such collection
procedures with respect to the Pledged Receivables and the related Contracts and Insurance Policies
as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the
Borrower and the Lenders with respect thereto.

     (b) The Servicer shall remit all payments by or on behalf of the Obligors received directly by
the Servicer to the Collection Account, without deposit into any intervening account as soon as
practicable, but in no event later than the end of business on the Business Day of identification
thereof as payments by or on behalf of the Obligors.

     SECTION 6.03 Realization Upon Receivables. Consistent with the standards, policies
and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall use its best efforts to repossess (or
otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and liquidate any Obligor Collateral securing a
Pledged Receivable within a number of days consistent with the Credit and Collection Policy of an
uncured failure of the related Obligor to make any payment which it is obligated to make under the
related Contract or an earlier date that would be customary under the circumstances involved (as
determined in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy) and, in any case, in a manner as
will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the
Borrower and the Lenders with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer
need not repossess (or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and liquidate the Obligor
Collateral securing such a Pledged Receivable if, in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer, the
value of such Obligor Collateral does not exceed by more than an insignificant amount the cost to
repossess (or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and liquidate such Obligor Collateral.
The Servicer is authorized to follow such customary practices and procedures as it shall deem
necessary or advisable, consistent with the standard of care required by Section 6.01,
which practices and procedures may include reasonable efforts to realize upon any guaranties,
selling the related Obligor Collateral at public or private sale, the submission of claims under an
Insurance Policy and other actions by the Servicer in order to realize upon such Pledged
Receivable. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which the Obligor
Collateral shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any
repair or towards the repossession of such Obligor Collateral, unless it shall determine in its
discretion that such repair and/or repossession shall increase the proceeds of liquidation of the
related Pledged Receivable by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. All Liquidation
Proceeds shall be remitted directly by the Servicer to the Collection Account without deposit into
any intervening account as soon as practicable, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day
after identification thereof as Liquidation Proceeds. The Servicer shall pay on behalf of the
Borrower any personal property taxes assessed on repossessed Obligor Collateral, and the Servicer
shall be entitled to reimbursement of any such tax as a Servicer Advance.

59

 

     SECTION 6.04 Insurance Regarding Equipment. (a) At the time of the Pledge of any
Receivable hereunder, the Servicer shall require each Obligor to obtain and maintain (or with
respect to an Underlying Originator, cause such Underlying Originator to obtain and maintain)
Insurance Policies in accordance with the terms of the Credit and Collection Policy and its
customary servicing procedures and shall furnish evidence of such insurance (except if the
Equipment relating to such Obligor has an aggregate Amortized Equipment Cost of $100,000 or less)
to the Lenders.

     (b) The Servicer may, and upon the request of the Collateral Agent shall, sue to enforce or
collect upon the Insurance Policies, in its own name (but in its capacity as Servicer), if
possible, or as agent of the Borrower and the Lenders. If the Servicer elects to commence a legal
proceeding to enforce an Insurance Policy, the act of commencement shall be deemed to be an
automatic assignment of the rights of the Borrower and the Lenders under such Insurance Policy to
the Servicer for purposes of collection only. If, however, in any enforcement suit or legal
proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not enforce an Insurance Policy on the grounds that it
is not an actual party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Insurance Policy, the
Borrower shall take such steps as the Servicer deems necessary to enforce such Insurance Policy,
including bringing suit in its name.

     SECTION 6.05 Maintenance of Security Interests in Obligor Collateral. (a) The Initial
Servicer and the Borrower shall take all steps necessary, under all applicable law, in order to
(i) cause a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority perfected security interest to exist
in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Borrower’s interests in the Obligor Collateral, all Other
Conveyed Property and all Related Security related to each Receivable (and the proceeds thereof)
being Pledged hereunder, to secure a Loan on the Borrowing Date thereof including (A) the filing of
a UCC financing statement in the applicable jurisdiction adequately describing the Obligor
Collateral, Other Conveyed Property and all Related Security and naming the Borrower as debtor and
the Collateral Agent as the secured party, (B) filing Obligor Financing Statements against all
Obligors purchasing or leasing Obligor Collateral, and (C) other than with respect to a Lease
Contract related to Equipment which has an Amortized Equipment Cost of less than $25,000 if such
Lease Contract is a Dollar Purchase Option Contract or $50,000 if such Lease Contract is a FMV
Contract, causing the filing of UCC-3 assignment statements in the applicable jurisdictions
adequately describing the Equipment and other collateral being transferred by the Underlying
Originator to the Originator and naming the applicable Underlying Originator as the assignor and
Originator as the assignee, (ii) ensure that such security interest is and shall be prior to all
other liens upon and security interests in the Borrower’s interests in such Obligor Collateral,
Other Conveyed Property and Related Security (and the proceeds thereof) that now exist, or may
hereafter arise or be created other than Permitted Liens, and (iii) ensure that immediately prior
to the Pledge of such Receivable by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent, such Obligor Collateral,
Other Conveyed Property and Related Security is free and clear of all Adverse Claims other than
Permitted Liens; and

     (b) The Initial Servicer shall take all steps, as are necessary (subject to
Section 6.05(a)), to maintain perfection of the security interest in the Borrower’s
interests in the Obligor Collateral, Other Conveyed Property and Related Security related to each
Pledged Receivable (and the proceeds thereof) in favor of the Collateral Agent including but not
limited to, obtaining the execution by the Borrower and the recording, registering, filing,
rerecording,

60

 

refiling, and reregistering of all security agreements, financing statements and continuation
statements as are necessary to maintain and/or perfect such security interests granted by the
Borrower and the recordation of the Borrower’s or the applicable Approved Lienholder’s lien on the
Certificate of Title for any Vehicle included in such Obligor Collateral, all in accordance with
the Titling Requirements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower and each
Lender each hereby authorizes the Initial Servicer, and the Initial Servicer agrees, to take any
and all steps necessary (subject to Section 6.05(a)) to re-perfect the security interest in
the Borrower’s interests in any Obligor Collateral (and the Borrower’s interests therein), Other
Conveyed Property and Related Security related to each Pledged Receivable (and the proceeds
thereof) in favor of the Collateral Agent as may be necessary, due to the relocation of such
Obligor Collateral or for any other reason.

     SECTION 6.06 Pledged Receivable Receipts. The Servicer shall make a deposit into the
Collection Account in an amount equal to the Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable
received, or made by, or on behalf of it, within one Business Day of such Collections being
received, or made by, or on behalf of it.

     SECTION 6.07 No Rights of Withdrawal. Until the Collection Date, the Borrower shall
have no rights of direction or withdrawal, with respect to amounts held in the Collection Account
or the Lockbox Account, except with respect to funds not related to any Pledged Assets, which were
incorrectly deposited into any such account.

     SECTION 6.08 Permitted Investments. The Borrower shall, pursuant to written
instruction, direct the Lenders’ Bank (and if the Borrower fails to do so, the Lenders may,
pursuant to written instruction, direct the Lenders’ Bank) to invest, or cause the investment of,
funds on deposit in the Collection Account in Permitted Investments, from the date of this
Agreement until the Collection Date. Absent any such written instruction, the Lenders’ Bank shall
invest, or cause the investment of, such funds in Permitted Investments described in clause (v) of
the definition thereof. A Permitted Investment acquired with funds deposited in the Collection
Account shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding any Remittance Date, and
shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be
registered in the name of a securities intermediary or its nominee for the benefit of the Lenders,
and otherwise comply with assumptions of the legal opinion of Thacher Proffitt & Wood LLP,
delivered in connection with this Agreement. All income and gain realized from any such
investment, as well as any interest earned on deposits in the Collection Account, shall be
distributed in accordance with the provisions of Article II hereof. The Borrower shall
deposit in the Collection Account, as the case may be (with respect to investments made hereunder
of funds held therein), an amount equal to the amount of any actual loss incurred, in respect of
any such investment, immediately upon realization of such loss. None of the Lenders’ Bank or any
Lender shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred, in respect of any investment, or lack
of investment, of funds held in the Collection Account.

     SECTION 6.09 Servicing Compensation. As compensation for its activities hereunder,
the Servicer shall be entitled to be paid the Servicing Fee from the Collection Account as provided
in Section 2.04(a). The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement
therefor, except with respect to reasonable expenses of the Servicer incurred in

61

 

connection with the repossession and disposition of any Obligor Collateral (which the Servicer
may retain from the proceeds of the disposition of such Obligor Collateral) and any Servicer
Advances made by the Servicer pursuant hereto. The Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole,
or in part, except in connection with the transfer of all the Servicer’s responsibilities and
obligations under this Agreement. At any time after the occurrence of a Servicer Default and the
appointment of the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer as the Servicer hereunder, the
Backup Servicer shall be entitled to receive an amount, payable out of Collections on the Pledged
Receivables and amounts applied to the payment of, or treated as payments on, the Pledged
Receivables, equal to expenses incurred by the Backup Servicer or any such other successor
Servicer, acting in its capacity as the Servicer, in connection with its obligations under Sections
6.05(a) and (b) hereof (such expenses, the “Successor Servicer’s Indemnified Amounts”).

     SECTION 6.10 Reports to the Lenders and the Backup Servicer; Account Statements; Servicing
Information. (a) The Borrower will deliver to the Lenders and each Qualifying Swap
Counterparty, (i) on the Program Termination Date, a report identifying the Pledged Receivables
(and any information with respect thereto requested by the Lenders) on the day immediately
preceding the Program Termination Date, and (ii) upon a Lender’s reasonable request and upon
reasonable notice, on any other Business Day, a report identifying the Pledged Receivables (and any
information with respect thereto, reasonably requested by such Lender) as of such day.

     (b) At least five (5) Business Days prior to each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall prepare
and deliver, or have delivered, to the Lenders and each Qualifying Swap Counterparty (i) a Monthly
Remittance Report and any other information reasonably requested by a Lender, relating to all
Pledged Receivables (including, if requested, a Computer Tape or Listing), all information in the
Monthly Remittance Report and all other such information to be accurate as of the last day of the
immediately preceding Collection Period, and (ii) in an electronic format mutually acceptable to
the Servicer and the Lenders, all information reasonably requested by the Lenders relating to all
Pledged Receivables. If any Monthly Remittance Report indicates the existence of a Facility
Deficiency, the Borrower shall, on the date of delivery of such Monthly Remittance Report, prepay
to the Lenders, for the account of the Lenders, a portion of the Loans as is necessary to cure such
Facility Deficiency, in accordance with Section 2.04(c) hereof.

     (c) By no later than the Borrowing Date, the Borrower (or the Initial Servicer on its behalf)
shall also prepare and deliver to the Lenders a Facility Limit Certificate containing information
accurate as of the date of delivery of such Facility Limit Certificate. If any Facility Limit
Certificate indicates the existence of a Facility Deficiency, the Borrower shall on the date of
delivery of such Facility Limit Certificate prepay to the Lenders, for the account of the Lenders,
a portion of the Loans, to the extent necessary to cure such Facility Deficiency, in accordance
with Section 2.04(c) hereof.

     (d) At least five (5) Business Days prior to each Remittance Date (each such day, a
“Backup Servicer Delivery Date”), the Servicer shall prepare and deliver or have delivered,
to the Backup Servicer (i) the Monthly Remittance Report in respect of the immediately-preceding
Collection Period and (ii) a computer tape or a diskette or any other electronic transmission in a
format acceptable to the Backup Servicer containing (x) the information with respect to the

62

 

Pledged Receivables during such Collection Period which was necessary for preparation of such
Monthly Remittance Report and (y) any other information which is reasonably requested by the Backup
Servicer or the Collateral Agent.

     (e) No later than the second Business Day of each calendar week commencing with the week
beginning on November 24, 2008 (each such day, a “Weekly Reporting Date”), the Servicer
shall prepare and deliver, or have delivered, to the Lenders and the Backup Servicer a computer
tape or a diskette or any other electronic transmission in a format acceptable to the Backup
Servicer containing any information which is reasonably requested by the Backup Servicer or the
Collateral Agent.

     (f) The Borrower shall deliver to the Lenders all reports it receives pursuant to the Purchase
and Sale Agreement within one Business Day of the receipt thereof.

     (g) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer shall prepare and deliver, or have delivered, to the
Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Backup Servicer any information which is reasonably requested
by the Backup Servicer, the Collateral Agent or any Lender.

     SECTION 6.11 Statements as to Compliance; Financial Statements. (a) The Servicer
shall deliver to the Backup Servicer, the Borrower and the Lenders on or before March 31st of each
year, beginning with 2008, an Officer’s Certificate stating, as to each signatory thereof, that
(x) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding calendar year (or the portion
of the preceding calendar year commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending December 31,
2007 in the case of the first such review) and of its performance under this Agreement has been
made under such officer’s supervision, and (y) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on
such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such
calendar year (or portion thereof, as the case may be) or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the
nature and status thereof and the action being taken to cure such default.

     (b) The Servicer (if LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) shall, at its expense, cause a
firm of nationally recognized independent certified public accountants acceptable to the Lenders
(the “Independent Accountants”), who may also render other services to the Servicer, the
Backup Servicer, any other successor Servicer or to the Borrower, to deliver to the Borrower and
the Lenders, on or before March 31st of each year, beginning 2008, with respect to the twelve (12)
months ended the immediately preceding December 31, a statement (the “Accountant’s Report”)
addressed to the Board of Directors of the Servicer and to the Lenders, to the effect that such
firm has examined such Facility Limit Certificates and Monthly Remittance Reports prepared by the
Servicer during the twelve (12) months ended the immediately preceding December 31 as it deemed
necessary in order to issue the Accountants’ Report and issued its report thereon, and that such
examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly,
included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as such firm
considered necessary in the circumstances. The Accountants’ Report shall further state that (i) a
review in accordance with agreed upon procedures was made; and (ii) except as disclosed in the
Accountant’s Report, no exceptions or errors in the Facility Limit Certificates and Monthly
Remittance Reports examined were found except for (A) such exceptions as the Independent
Accountants believe to be

63

 

immaterial and (B) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in the Accountants’ Report.
The Accountants’ Report shall also indicate that the firm is independent of the Borrower and the
Servicer within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants.

     (c) As soon as available and no later than forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar
quarter in each fiscal year of the Borrower or Resource America, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Lenders two copies of:

     (i) a balance sheet of the Borrower and Resource America as of the end of such calendar
quarter, setting forth in comparative form the corresponding figures for the most recent
year-end for which an audited balance sheet has been prepared, which balance sheet shall be
prepared and presented in accordance with, and provide all necessary disclosure required by,

     SECTION 6.12 Access to Certain Documentation; Obligors; Background Check. (a) The
Collateral Agent (and its agents or professional advisors) shall at the expense of the Borrower,
have the right under this Agreement, once during each calendar quarter, to examine and audit,
during business hours or at such other times as might be reasonable under applicable circumstances,
any and all of the books, records, financial statements or other information of the Servicer and
the Borrower, or held by another for the Servicer or the Borrower or on its behalf, concerning this
Agreement, provided, that, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower
shall not be responsible for the expenses of the Collateral Agent to the extent that such expenses
exceed $25,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year. Each Lender (and its agents or professional
advisors) shall, at the expense of the Borrower and as frequently as such Lender may desire, have
the right under this Agreement after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, to examine and audit, during business hours or at such other times as might be reasonable
under applicable circumstances, any and all of the books, records or other information of the
Servicer or the Borrower, or held by another for the Servicer or the Borrower or on its behalf,
concerning this Agreement. Each Lender and the Collateral Agent (and its respective agents and
professional advisors) shall coordinate examinations and audits under this Section 6.12(a)
in order to minimize expense and inconvenience to the Borrower. Each Lender and the Collateral
Agent (and its respective agents and professional advisors) shall treat as confidential any
information obtained during the aforementioned examinations which is not already publicly known or
available; provided, however, that each Lender and the Collateral Agent may
disclose such information if required to do so by law or by any regulatory authority and may
disclose information relevant to the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

     (b) The Collateral Agent (and its respective agents or professional advisors) shall, at the
ratable expense of the Lenders (based on Percentages), have the right under this Agreement to
contact Obligors once with respect to any Receivable which is Pledged hereunder to request that
each such Obligor verify and confirm by return letter the existence and amount of such Receivable,
the type of Equipment leased under or securing the related Contract and such other information as
such Lender deems reasonable under the circumstances (each such return letter to be mailed to a
post office box established by such Lender). The Servicer and the Borrower hereby agree to
cooperate with each Lender (and its respective agents or professional advisors) in connection with
any attempt thereby to contact any such Obligor and shall provide to each such Lender such
information as is needed in order to facilitate such contact. Each Lender (and its respective
agents and professional advisors) shall treat as confidential any information obtained during any
such contact with any such Obligor which is not already publicly known or available; provided,
however, that each Lender (and its respective agents or professional advisors) may disclose such
information if required to do so by law or by any regulatory authority and may disclose information
relevant to the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     (c) Each Lender (or its respective agents and/or third party professional advisors) may, from
time to time, cause comprehensive background checks on newly-hired senior

66

 

management, key employees and principals of each of Resource Capital Corp., the Initial
Servicer and Originator to be completed by an investigation service acceptable to such Lender, at
the Borrower’s expense.

     SECTION 6.13 Backup Servicer. If a Servicer Default shall occur, then the Controlling
Holders may, by notice to the Servicer, the Borrower and the Backup Servicer, terminate all of the
rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement. Upon the delivery to the Servicer of
such notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to
the Pledged Assets or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Backup Servicer or any other
successor Servicer appointed by the Controlling Holders pursuant to and under this Section, and,
without limitation, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer appointed hereunder is
hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as
attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish
all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination or to perform the duties of the Servicer under this Agreement. The Servicer agrees to
cooperate with the Lenders and the Backup Servicer or other successor Servicer in effecting the
termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation,
providing notification to the Obligors of the assignment of the servicing function, providing the
Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, at the Servicer’s expense, with all records, in
electronic or other form, reasonably requested by the Backup Servicer or such other successor
Servicer, in such form as the Backup Servicer may reasonably request and at such times as the
Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer may reasonably request, to enable such Person to
assume the servicing functions hereunder and the transfer to such Person for administration by it
of all cash amounts which at the time should be or should have been deposited by the Servicer in
the Collection Account or thereafter be received by the Servicer with respect to the Pledged
Receivables. Additionally, the Servicer agrees to cooperate in providing, at the Servicer’s
expense, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer as successor Servicer, with reasonable
access (including at the premises of the Servicer) to Servicer’s employees and any and all books,
records or other information reasonably requested by it to enable the Backup Servicer or such other
successor Servicer, as successor Servicer, to assume the servicing functions hereunder. Neither
any Lender nor the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer shall be deemed to have breached
any obligation hereunder as a result of a failure to make or delay in making any distribution as
and when required hereunder caused by the failure of the Servicer to remit any amounts received by
it or to deliver any documents held by it with respect to the Pledged Assets. The Backup Servicer
(including as successor Servicer) or any other successor Servicer undertakes to perform only such
duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being understood by all
parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of the Backup Servicer or such other
successor Servicer hereunder.

     The Active Backup Servicer’s Fees and Transition Costs shall be paid out of Collections with
respect to any Pledged Receivable as set forth in Section 2.04(a) on and after the date, if
any, that the Backup Servicer assumes the responsibilities of the Servicer pursuant to this
Section. The Standby Backup Servicer’s Fees and Transition Costs shall be paid out of Collections
with respect to any Pledged Receivable as set forth in Section 2.04(a) prior to the date,
if any, that the Backup Servicer assumes the responsibilities of the Servicer pursuant to this
Section.

67

 

     Any obligations of LEAF Financial under any Transaction Document other than in its capacity as
Servicer shall continue in effect notwithstanding LEAF Financial’s termination as Servicer.

     On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination (with a copy delivered to
the Backup Servicer) pursuant to this Section 6.13, the Backup Servicer shall be (and the
Backup Servicer hereby agrees to be) the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity
as Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall
have all the rights and powers and be subject thereafter to all the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided,
however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer’s
failure to provide information required by this Section 6.13 shall not be considered a
default by the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer hereunder; provided, further,
however, that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, as successor Servicer, shall
have (i) no liability with respect to any obligation which was required to be performed by the
terminated Servicer prior to the date that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer
becomes the successor to the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or
inaction of the terminated Servicer, (ii) no obligation to perform any repurchase or advancing
obligations, if any, of the Servicer, (iii) no obligation to pay any taxes required to be paid by
the Servicer (provided that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer shall pay any
income taxes for which it is liable), (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any
other party to the transactions contemplated hereby, and (v) no liability or obligation with
respect to any Servicer indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer, including the original
Servicer. The indemnification obligations of the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer,
upon becoming a successor Servicer, are expressly limited to those arising on account of its
failure to act in good faith and with reasonable care under the circumstances. In addition,
neither the Backup Servicer nor any other successor Servicer shall have any liability relating to
the representations and warranties of the Servicer contained in Article IV. Notwithstanding the
above, Morgan Stanley (or, following the Collateral Split Effective Date, the Primary Lender under
the related Loan Agreement) may, or shall, if the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer
is unable to so act, appoint itself, or appoint any other established servicing institution
acceptable to the Lenders in their sole discretion, as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in
the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer
hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, and after the Lenders
notify the Servicer to discontinue performing servicing functions under this Agreement, the Backup
Servicer or any other successor Servicer (or Morgan Stanley (or, following the Collateral Split
Effective Date, the Primary Lender under the related Loan Agreement) if there is no Backup Servicer
or other successor Servicer) shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection
with such appointment and assumption, the Lenders may make such arrangements for the compensation
of such successor out of payments on Pledged Receivables as it and such successor shall agree;
provided, however, that, except as provided herein, no such compensation shall be in excess of that
permitted the Servicer hereunder, unless (i) agreed to by the Lenders and (ii) such compensation
shall be on commercially competitive terms and rates. The Borrower, the Lenders and such successor
shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any
such succession. The parties hereto agree that in no event will the Backup Servicer or any other
successor Servicer be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages.

68

 

     Each of the Backup Servicer and any other successor Servicer hereby agrees that it shall, and
shall take all actions necessary so that it shall at all times be ready to, assume all the rights
and powers and all of the responsibilities, obligations and duties of the Servicer hereunder,
within ten (10) Business Days of receiving from a Lender a notice requesting the Backup Servicer or
such other successor Servicer to do so.

     Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, absent specific
knowledge by any Lyon Financial Services, Inc. account representative assigned to this transaction
from time to time, or written notice detailing specific Errors (as defined below) or other
deficiencies, Lyon Financial Services, Inc., as successor Servicer, is authorized to accept and
rely on all accounting records (including computer records) and work product of the prior Servicer
hereunder relating to the Contracts (collectively, the “Predecessor Servicer Work Product”) without
any audit or other examination thereof, and Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall have no duty,
responsibility, obligation or liability for the acts and omissions of the prior Servicer. If any
error, inaccuracy, commission or incorrect or nonstandard practice or procedure (collectively,
“Errors”) exists in any Predecessor Servicer Work Product and such Errors cause Lyon Financial
Services, Inc. to make or continue any errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), Lyon Financial
Services, Inc. shall have no liability for such Continued Errors; provided, however, that Lyon
Financial Services, Inc. agrees to use its best efforts to prevent Continued Errors. In the event
that Lyon Financial Services, Inc. becomes aware of Errors or Continued Errors, Lyon Financial
Services, Inc. shall, with the prior consent of the Lenders, use commercially reasonable efforts to
reconstruct and reconcile any affected data to correct such Errors and Continued Errors and to
prevent future Continued Errors. Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall be entitled to recover its
costs thereby expended as Servicer Advances in accordance with Section 2.04(a) hereof.

     Within four (4) Business Days after each Remittance Date, provided that the Backup Servicer
shall have received the information specified in Section 6.10(d) within the time specified
therein, the Backup Servicer shall compare the information on the computer tape or diskette (or
other means of electronic transmission acceptable to the Backup Servicer) most recently delivered
to the Backup Servicer by the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.10(d) with respect to such
Remittance Date to the corresponding Monthly Remittance Report delivered to the Backup Servicer by
the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.10(d) and shall:

     (a) confirm that such Monthly Remittance Report is complete on its face;

     (b) confirm the distributions to be made on such Remittance Date pursuant to Section
2.04(a) hereof to the extent the Backup Servicer is able to do so given the information
provided to it by the Servicer (it being hereby agreed that the Backup Servicer shall promptly
notify the Servicer and the Lenders if such information is insufficient and that the Servicer shall
promptly provide to the Backup Servicer any additional information required by the Backup
Servicer);

     (c) confirm the mathematical computations of information in such Monthly Remittance Report;
and

     (d) confirm such other information as the Backup Servicer and the Lenders may agree.

69

 

     In the event of any discrepancy between the information set forth in subparagraphs (b) or (c)
above as calculated by the Servicer and that determined or calculated by the Backup Servicer, the
Backup Servicer shall promptly report such discrepancy to the Servicer and the Lenders. In the
event of a discrepancy as described in the preceding sentence, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer
shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancy within five (5) Business Days after reporting such
discrepancy, but in the absence of a reconciliation, distributions on the related Remittance Date
shall be made consistent with the information calculated by the Servicer, the Servicer and the
Backup Servicer shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancy prior to the next Remittance Date, and
the Servicer shall promptly report to the Lenders regarding the progress, if any, which shall have
been made in reconciling such discrepancy. If the Backup Servicer and the Servicer are unable to
reconcile such discrepancy with respect to such Monthly Remittance Report by the next Remittance
Date that falls in April, July, October or January, the Servicer shall cause independent
accountants acceptable to the Lenders, at the Servicer’s expense, to examine such Monthly
Remittance Report and attempt to reconcile such discrepancy at the earliest possible date (and the
Servicer shall promptly provide the Lenders with a report regarding such event). The effect, if
any, of such reconciliation shall be reflected in the Monthly Remittance Report for the next
succeeding Remittance Date. The provisions of this paragraph shall be referred to herein as the
“Discrepancy Procedure”.

     Other than as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall have no
obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer and shall
have no liability for any action taken or omitted by the Servicer.

     The Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer may allow a subservicer to perform any and
all of its duties and responsibilities hereunder, including but not limited to its duties as
successor Servicer hereunder, should the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer become
the successor Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Backup
Servicer or such other successor Servicer, as applicable, shall remain liable for the performance
of all of its duties and obligations hereunder to the same extent as if no such subservicing had
occurred.

     In no event shall the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer (either prior to or
after its appointment hereunder as Servicer) be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in
the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly,
forces beyond its control, including without limitation, acts of terrorism, civil or military
disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God.

     The Backup Servicer may, upon one hundred twenty (120) days’ prior written notice to each of
the parties hereto, resign as Backup Servicer. If the Backup Servicer resigns under this
Agreement, then the Controlling Holders (with the consent of the Servicer if no Program Termination
Event or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing) during such period may appoint a
successor backup servicer, whereupon such successor backup servicer shall succeed to the rights,
powers and duties of such Backup Servicer, and the term “Backup Servicer”, shall mean such
successor backup servicer, effective upon its acceptance of such appointment and its delivery of a
duly executed counterpart of this Agreement and an acknowledgment to the Backup Servicer and the
other parties hereto, and such former Backup Servicer’s rights, powers and duties as Backup
Servicer, shall be terminated (other than the

70

 

covenant of the Backup Servicer set forth in Section 9.08, which expressly survives
termination of this Agreement), without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former
Backup Servicer or any of the parties to this Agreement. Such resigning Backup Servicer shall
cooperate with the Custodian, the Collateral Agent and the successor backup servicer in order to
transfer its rights and obligations as Backup Servicer hereunder to such successor Backup Servicer.

     SECTION 6.14 Additional Remedies of Lenders Upon Event of Default. During the
continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender, in addition to the rights specified in
Section 7.01, shall have the right to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in
equity or by statute to protect its interests and enforce its rights and remedies (including the
institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filings
of proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy,
each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or
omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed
to be a waiver of any Event of Default.

     SECTION 6.15 Waiver of Defaults. The Controlling Holders may waive any default by the
Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such
waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such
waiver shall be effective unless it shall be in writing and signed by the Controlling Holders and
no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent
thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

     SECTION 6.16 Maintenance of Certain Insurance. On the date hereof the Servicer shall
obtain, and at all times thereafter during the term of its service as Servicer the Servicer shall
maintain, in force a directors and officers liability insurance policy in an amount not less than
$1,000,000 naming the Collateral Agent as loss payee with an insurance company reasonably
acceptable to the Lenders.

     The Servicer shall deliver a copy of the insurance policy required under this Section
6.16 to the Lenders on the date hereof together with a certification from the applicable
insurance company that such policy is in force on the date hereof.

     The Servicer shall prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, claims under any
such policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy, and upon, the filing
of any claim on any policy described in this Section, the Servicer shall promptly notify the
Lenders of such claim.

     SECTION 6.17 Segregation of Collections. The Servicer shall not commingle funds
constituting Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable with any other funds of the
Servicer; provided, that such commingling may occur in the Lockbox Account so long as the
Lockbox Intercreditor Agreement is in full force and effect.

     SECTION 6.18 UCC Matters; Protection and Perfection of Pledged Assets. The Borrower
will not change the jurisdiction of its formation, make any change to its corporate

71

 

name or use any tradenames, fictitious names, assumed names, “doing business as” names or
other names (other than those listed on Schedule II hereto, as such schedule may be revised
from time to time to reflect name changes and name usage permitted under the terms of this
Section 6.18 after compliance with all terms and conditions of this Section 6.18
related thereto) unless, prior to the effective date of any such jurisdiction change, name change
or use, the Borrower notifies the Collateral Agent of such change in writing and delivers to the
Collateral Agent such executed financing statements as the Collateral Agent may request to reflect
such jurisdiction, name change or use, together with such other documents and instruments as the
Collateral Agent may request in connection therewith. The Borrower will not change the location of
its chief executive office or the location of its records regarding the Pledged Receivables unless,
prior to the effective date of any such change of location, the Borrower notifies the Collateral
Agent of such change of location in writing and delivers to the Collateral Agent such executed
financing statements as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to reflect such change of
location, together with such Opinions of Counsel, documents and instruments as the Collateral Agent
may request in connection therewith. The Borrower agrees that from time to time, at its expense,
it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further
action that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to perfect, protect or more fully
evidence the Collateral Agent’s interest in the Pledged Assets acquired hereunder, or to enable the
Collateral Agent to exercise or enforce any of its respective rights hereunder. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower will, upon the request of the Collateral Agent:
(i) execute (if necessary) and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments
thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or
appropriate or as the Collateral Agent may request, and (ii) mark its master data processing
records evidencing such Pledged Receivables with a legend acceptable to the Collateral Agent,
evidencing that the Collateral Agent has acquired an interest therein as provided in this
Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the filings or
registrations made by or on behalf of the Borrower without any independent investigation and the
Borrower’s obligation to make such filings as evidence that such filings have been made. The
Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation
statements, and amendments thereto and assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Pledged
Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property and the Related Security related thereto and the
proceeds of the foregoing now existing or hereafter arising, without the signature of the Borrower
where permitted by law. The Borrower hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Collateral
Agent of any such financing statement made prior to the date hereof. A carbon, photographic or
other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Pledged Receivables,
or any part thereof, shall be sufficient as a financing statement. The Borrower shall, upon the
request of the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default and at the
Borrower’s expense, notify the Obligors obligated to pay any Pledged Receivables, or any of them,
of the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Pledged Assets. If the Borrower fails to
perform any of its agreements or obligations under this Section 6.18, the Collateral Agent
may (but shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or
obligation, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be
payable by the Borrower upon the Collateral Agent’s demand therefor. For purposes of enabling the
Collateral Agent to exercise its rights described in the preceding sentence and elsewhere in this
Article VI, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent and its successors and
assigns to take any and all steps in

72

 

 the Borrower’s name and on behalf of the Borrower necessary or desirable, in the determination
of the Collateral Agent, to collect all amounts due under any and all Pledged Receivables,
including, without limitation, endorsing the Borrower’s name on checks and other instruments
representing Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable and enforcing such Pledged
Receivables and the related Contracts and, if any, the related guarantees.

     SECTION 6.19 Servicer Advances. The Servicer may, in its sole discretion, make an
advance in respect of any payment due on a Pledged Receivable (other than a Defaulted Receivable)
to the extent such payment has not been received by the Servicer as of its due date and the
Servicer reasonably expects such payment will be ultimately recoverable (a “Servicer
Advance”). The Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account in immediately available
funds the aggregate of all Servicer Advances to be made during a Fee Period on or prior to the
Business Day immediately preceding the related Remittance Date. The Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement for such Servicer Advances from monies in the Collection Account as provided in
Section 2.04(a) hereof.

     SECTION 6.20 Repurchase of Receivables Upon Breach of Covenant or Representation and
Warranty by Servicer. The Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall inform the other
parties to this Agreement and the Initial Qualifying Swap Counterparty promptly, in writing, upon
the discovery of any breach of the Servicer’s representations, warranties and/or covenants pursuant
to Section 4.02, Section 6.05 or Article V; provided,
however, that the failure to provide any such notice shall not diminish, in any manner
whatsoever, any obligation of the Servicer hereunder to repurchase any Pledged Receivable. Unless
such breach shall have been cured by the last day of the first full calendar month following the
discovery by or notice to the Servicer of such breach (and provided that a Facility Deficiency
exists on such last day), the Servicer (if LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) shall have an
obligation, and the Borrower shall and the Collateral Agent may, enforce such obligation of the
Servicer (if LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof), to repurchase any Pledged Receivable
materially and adversely affected by such breach. The Borrower shall notify the Collateral Agent
promptly, in writing, of any failure by the Servicer to so repurchase any such Pledged Receivable.
In consideration of the repurchase of such Pledged Receivable, the Servicer shall remit funds in an
amount equal to the Release Price for such Pledged Receivable to the Collection Account on the date
of such repurchase. The obligations of the Servicer under this Section 6.20 are in
addition to, and in no way limit, any obligations of the Servicer in its individual capacity under
the Purchase and Sale Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Servicer
to purchase any Receivables is not intended to, and shall not, constitute a guaranty of the
collectibility or payment of any Receivable which is not collected, not paid or uncollectible on
account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, or financial inability to pay of the related Obligor.

     SECTION 6.21 Compliance with Applicable Law. The Servicer and the Borrower shall at
all times comply in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal, state and
local laws, and regulations thereunder (including, without limitation, usury laws, the Federal
Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Billing Act, the Fair
Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulations “B” and “Z”, the Soldiers’ and
Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of 1940 and state adaptations of the National Consumer

73

 

Act and of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code and all other consumer credit laws and equal
credit opportunity and disclosure laws) in the conduct of its business.

     SECTION 6.22 Receipt of Certificates of Title. Any Receivable with respect to which
the Obligor Collateral includes a Vehicle and for which the Servicer shall not have (i) received a
Certificate of Title satisfying the Titling Requirements and (ii) delivered such Certificate of
Title to the Custodian within 90 days of the first day of inclusion of such Pledged Receivable in
the calculation of the Facility Limit, shall no longer be deemed to be an Eligible Receivable and,
therefore, shall no longer be included in the calculation of the Facility Limit. In the case of
any Receivable excluded from the calculation of the Facility Limit pursuant to the previous
sentence, the Receivable so excluded from the calculation of the Facility Limit may at a later time
be included in the calculation of the Facility Limit, provided, that (i) the Custodian
shall have received the Certificate of Title described above with respect to such Receivable from
the applicable Registrar of Titles and delivered such Certificate of Title to the Custodian and
(ii) such Receivable is otherwise an Eligible Receivable at such time.

     SECTION 6.23 Lenders’ Bank Limitation of Liability. (a) The Lenders’ Bank undertakes

under this Agreement. Neither the Lenders’ Bank nor any of its officers, directors, employees or
agents shall be liable, directly or indirectly, for any damages or expenses arising out of the
services performed under this Agreement other than damages which result from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of it or them. In no event will the Lenders’ Bank or any of its officers,
directors, employees or agents be liable for any consequential, indirect or special damages.

     (b) The Lenders’ Bank shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or
step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything
which it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith.

     (c) The Lenders’ Bank may rely on and shall be protected in acting upon any certificate,
instrument, opinion, notice, letter, telegram or other document delivered to it by any other Person
and which in good faith it believes to be genuine and which has been signed by the proper party or
parties. The Lenders’ Bank may rely on and shall be protected in acting upon the written
instructions of any designated officer of the Borrower, the Servicer or any Lender.

     (d) The Lenders’ Bank may consult with counsel reasonably satisfactory to it and the opinion
of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such
counsel.

     (e) The Lenders’ Bank shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its
rights or powers, if the Lenders’ Bank believes that repayment of such funds (repaid in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement) or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it.

74

 

     (f) The Lenders’ Bank shall not be deemed to be a fiduciary of any party hereto.

     (g) The parties hereto agree that in no event will the Lenders’ Bank be liable for special,
indirect or consequential damages.

     (z) the occurrence of any “Event of Default” or “Program Termination Event” under and as
defined in the Warehouse Facility;

then the Controlling Holders may, by notice to the Borrower and each Qualifying Swap Counterparty,
declare the Program Termination Date to have occurred; provided, that, in the case of any
event described in Section 7.01(a) above, the Program Termination Date shall be deemed to
have occurred automatically upon the occurrence of such event. Upon any such declaration or

such Primary Lender may (x) declare the related Loans made to the Borrower by such Primary Lender

Obligations to be immediately due and payable (and the Borrower shall pay such Loans and all such
amounts and Obligations immediately) or (y) deliver a Collateral Split Notice to the Collateral
Agent and the other Parties hereto pursuant to Section 7.03. Any Collections received in
any such account (or received directly by any Lender or the Collateral Agent) shall be applied to
the Obligations in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.04(a).
In addition, upon any such declaration or upon any such automatic occurrence, the Lenders and the
Collateral Agent 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.

     SECTION 7.02 Additional Remedies of the Lenders. (a) Following the occurrence of the
Program Termination Date, the Collateral Agent shall not foreclose upon or sell the Pledged Assets,
except in accordance with this Section 7.02.

     (b) Upon the occurrence of the Program Termination Date and at the written direction of the
Controlling Holders, the Collateral Agent shall foreclose upon and promptly sell the Pledged Assets
in a commercially reasonable manner, in a recognized market (if one exists), at such price or
prices as the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem satisfactory in consultation with the Lenders,
and shall apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations in accordance with the

78

 

priority of payments set forth in Section 2.04. The parties recognize that it may not
be possible to sell all of the Pledged Assets on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction
with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such Pledged Assets may not
be liquid. Accordingly, the Collateral Agent may elect, in its sole discretion, the time and
manner of liquidating any Pledged Assets, and nothing contained herein shall obligate the
Collateral Agent to liquidate any Pledged Assets immediately on the Program Termination Date or to
liquidate all Pledged Assets in the same manner or on the same Business Day. For the avoidance of
doubt, once the Collateral Agent has begun the foreclosure process, each Program Termination Event
which caused the Program Termination Date to occur may not be cured without the prior written
consent of the Lenders and the Collateral Agent.

     (c) Any amounts received from any sale or liquidation of the Pledged Assets pursuant to this
Section 7.02 in excess of the Obligations will be returned to the Borrower, its successors
or assigns, or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

     (d) Each of the Class A Lenders, the Class B Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Initial
Qualifying Swap Counterparty shall have, in addition to all the rights and remedies provided herein
and provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including, without limitation,
the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable
state, to the extent that the Uniform Commercial Code is applicable, and the right to offset any
mutual debt and claim), all rights and remedies available to such Person at law, in equity or under
any other agreement between such Person and the Borrower.

     (e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this
Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in
addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair
any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Program Termination Event or
Event of Default.

     SECTION 7.03 Collateral Splitting.

     (a) Following the occurrence of a Program Termination Event, but prior to the exercise of
remedies by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 7.02, each Primary Lender shall have
the right (but no obligation) to deliver a written notice (a “Collateral Split Notice”) to
the Collateral Agent, each of the other parties hereto and the Qualifying Swap Counterparty
requesting that the Collateral Agent divide the Pledged Receivables (and the related Pledged
Assets) into Segregated Collateral Pools in accordance with subsection (b) below.

     (b) If a Collateral Split Notice has been delivered by any Primary Lender pursuant to
subsection (a) above, then upon the expiration of the Collateral Split Buyout Rights (and
assuming such rights have not been exercised), the Collateral Agent shall promptly and randomly
select two portions of the Pledged Receivables (and the related Pledged Assets) to be
“Segregated Collateral Pools” with respect to each of the Primary Lenders and their
respective Related Lenders. Each Segregated Collateral Pool shall have an aggregate Discounted
Balance equal to (x) the sum of the Percentages for the applicable Primary Lender and its Related
Lenders, multiplied by (y) the aggregate Discounted Balance of all Pledged Receivables at
such

79

 

time (such selection not to result in the separation of Pledged Receivables with the same
Obligor into multiple Segregated Collateral Pools). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at such time
RBS is a Primary Lender and each Primary Lender and its Related Lenders, collectively, have
aggregate Percentages equal to 50%, then (A) the MS Primary Lender shall promptly cause the Pledged
Receivables (and the related Pledged Assets) to be split into two Segregated Collateral Pools based
on the procedure described in the two preceding sentences (except such splitting need not be
random) and (B) no later than three (3) Business Days following the date on which such split
occurs, RBS shall select which Segregated Collateral Pool shall constitute the Segregated
Collateral Pool with respect to RBS, as Primary Lender, and its Related Lenders. The remaining
Segregated Collateral Pool shall constitute the Segregated Collateral Pool with respect to Morgan
Stanley, as Primary Lender, and its Related Lenders. The division of the Pledged Receivables (and
the related Pledged Assets) in accordance with this subsection (b) into Segregated
Collateral Pools and the designation of each such Segregated Collateral Pool to the related Lenders
shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Collateral Split”.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document, from and after the Collateral Split Effective Date:

     (i) The Loans made by the MS Primary Lender and its Related Lenders, on the one hand,
and the RBS Primary Lender and its Related Lenders, on the other hand (each, a “Lender
Group”), shall be deemed to be governed by two separate “Loan Agreements”. Each
Loan Agreement shall be evidenced by this Agreement as in effect on the Collateral Split
Effective Date, together with any subsequent amendments thereto made in accordance with
Section 9.01 hereof. The terms and conditions of each Loan Agreement and the
Persons deemed to be parties thereto shall be the same as the terms of this Agreement as in
effect on the Collateral Split Effective Date (as subsequently and separately amended in
accordance with Section 9.01 hereof); provided, however, that (A)
each reference herein to a “Lender” or the “Lenders” shall be deemed to refer solely to the
Lenders in the applicable Lender Group (and their subsequent successors and assigns), and
the Lenders in one Lender Group shall not be deemed to be parties to the Loan Agreement for
the other Lender Group, and shall not have any rights, privileges, duties or obligations
under such other Loan Agreement except to the extent expressly provided in Sections
2.04 and 9.01 thereof, (B) each reference herein to the “Collateral Agent” shall
be deemed to refer to the Primary Lender of the applicable Lender Group on the Collateral
Split Effective Date (and its subsequent successors and assigns), (C) each reference to the
“Loans” or “Notes” (or any similar or related term) shall be deemed to refer solely to the
Loans or Notes of the applicable Lender Group, (D) each reference to the “Pledged
Receivables” or the other “Pledged Assets” (or any similar or related term) shall be deemed
to refer to the Pledged Receivables and/or Pledged Assets included in the applicable Lender
Group’s Segregated Collateral Pool, (E) Section 2.04(a) of the Loan Agreement for
the RBS Lender Group (as defined below) (the “RBS Loan Agreement”) shall be replaced
in its entirety with the language set forth on Schedule 2.04(a) hereto and any
reference in the MS Loan Agreement or the related Transaction Documents to Section
2.04 of the RBS Loan Agreement shall be understood to refer to Schedule 2.04(a),
(F) the Backup Servicer shall continue to be a party to the Loan Agreement related to the MS
Primary Lender and its Related Lenders (the “Morgan Stanley Lender Group”) on the
terms and conditions set forth therein, but shall not be deemed to be a

80

 

party to the Loan Agreement related to the RBS Primary Lender and its Related Lenders
(the “RBS Lender Group”) and shall have no rights, privileges, duties or obligations
thereunder, and (G) the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent by the Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.11 of this Agreement or any other provision of the Transaction
Documents shall continue in effect (and shall be assigned to the RBS Collateral Agent to the
extent specified in subsection (v) below), and no new grant shall be deemed to be
made pursuant to Section 2.11 of either Loan Agreement For the avoidance of doubt,
(I) the parties hereto intend that this subsection (i), upon taking effect, shall be
treated as an amendment and restatement of the terms of this Agreement (as such terms apply
separately to the Loans of each Lender Group and its related Segregated Collateral Pool) and
not as a cancellation, termination or novation of this Agreement;

     (ii) Without limiting the generality of subsection (i) above, LEAF Financial or
the Person then acting as Servicer shall continue to be the Servicer (in separate
capacities) with respect to each Loan Agreement and each Segregated Collateral Pool until
removed by the applicable Controlling Holders in accordance with Section 6.01 of the
applicable Loan Agreement;

     (iii) Without limiting the generality of subsection (i) above, U.S. Bank
National Association or the Person then acting as Custodian shall continue to be the
Custodian (in separate capacities) with respect to each Loan Agreement and each Segregated
Collateral Pool until removed in accordance with the applicable Loan Agreement and the
Related Custodial Agreement. The rights, privileges, duties and obligations of the
Custodian with respect to each Loan Agreement and the related Segregated Collateral Pool
shall be governed by a custodial agreement (the “Related Custodial Agreement” with
respect thereto) having all the same terms and conditions as the Custodial Agreement in
effect on the Collateral Split Effective Date, except that (A) each Related Custodial
Agreement shall only apply to the related Segregated Collateral Pool, (B) all references
therein to the “RLSA” (and all terms defined by reference to the “RLSA”) shall be deemed to
refer solely to the related Loan Agreement and the respective terms defined therein (as
modified by subsection (i) above). Except as otherwise expressly provided in
Section 2.04 of the Loan Agreement related to the other Segregated Collateral Pool,
the Custodian’s Fees and other amounts due to the Custodian in respect of a particular
Segregated Collateral Pool shall be paid solely from Collections on such Segregated
Collateral Pool in accordance with Section 2.04 of the related Loan Agreement. Each
reference to the “Custodial Agreement” or the “Custodian” in a Loan Agreement or any other
related agreement shall be deemed to refer solely to the Related Custodial Agreement with
respect to such Loan Agreement and the Person appointed as Custodian thereunder;

     (iv) Without limiting the generality of subsection (i) above, but subject to
the remainder of this subsection (iv), U.S. Bank National Association or the Person
then acting as Lenders’ Bank shall continue to be the Lenders’ Bank (in separate capacities)
with respect to each Loan Agreement and each Segregated Collateral Pool until removed in
accordance with the applicable Loan Agreement. Promptly following the Collateral Split
Effective Date, and unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the MS Primary Lender, the RBS
Lender Group shall promptly establish a separate collection account to

81

 

be used to receive Collections in respect of its Segregated Collateral Pool (the
“RBS Collection Account”) which may be in the name of the Lender’s Bank under the
RBS Loan Agreement, the RBS Primary Lender or an affiliate of the RBS Primary Lender, and
each of the parties to the RBS Loan Agreement shall cooperate with the RBS Primary Lender in
establishing the RBS Collection Account on substantially the same terms and conditions as
the current Collection Account has been established under the Transaction Documents;
provided that the RBS Lender Group shall have no obligation to use U.S. Bank
National Association or any of its Affiliates as account bank with respect to such account.
From the Collateral Split Effective Date until the date on which the RBS Collection Account
has been established and is operational, each reference in the Loan Agreements to the
“Collection Account” shall continue to refer to the Collection Account in existence on the
Collateral Split Effective Date, and Collections in respect of both Segregated Collateral
Pools shall continue to be deposited into such account in accordance with the applicable
Loan Agreement. The Servicer for each Lender Group shall take all actions necessary to
ensure that each Segregated Collateral Pool is accounted for separately, and that
Collections in respect of each pool are applied in accordance with the applicable Loan
Agreement. From and after the date on which the RBS Collection Account has been established
and is operational, (A) the Servicer for the RBS Lender Group shall provide notice to the
Obligors in respect of the Pledged Receivables in the related Segregated Collateral Pool and
take commercially reasonably steps to ensure that such Obligors make all payments in respect
of such Receivables to the RBS Collection Account or an associated Lockbox Account, (B) the
RBS Lender Group shall no longer have any rights, privileges, duties or obligations under
the Collection Account Agreement, and all references therein to the “Lenders” or the
“Collateral Agent” shall refer solely the Collateral Agent appointed under the Loan
Agreement for the MS Lender Group and the Lenders included in such group (the “MS Loan
Agreement”), (C) all references in the Collection Account Agreement to the “RLSA” (and
all terms defined by reference to the “RLSA”) shall be deemed to refer solely to the MS Loan
Agreement and the respective terms defined therein (as modified by subsection (i)
above), and (D) each reference to the “Collection Account” or the “Collection Account
Agreement” in the RBS Loan Agreement or any other related agreement shall be deemed to refer
solely to the RBS Collection Account and the account control agreement established with
respect thereto. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.04 of the Loan
Agreement related to the other Segregated Collateral Pool, the Lenders’ Bank Fees and other
amounts due to the Lenders’ Bank in respect of a particular Segregated Collateral Pool shall
be paid solely from Collections on such Segregated Collateral Pool in accordance with
Section 2.04 of the related Loan Agreement. If any Servicer, Lender or other party
to either Loan Agreement receives any Collections in respect of the unrelated Segregated
Collateral Pool, it shall hold such amounts in trust for the Persons to whom such amounts
are due and shall promptly remit such amounts to the related Servicer for such Segregated
Collateral Pool;

     (v) The rights, privileges, duties and obligations, if any, of the Lenders in each
Lender Group and the related Collateral Agents under or in respect of the Purchase and Sale
Agreement, the Lockbox Intercreditor Agreement, the Originator Insurance Agreement, the FDIC
Documents, and each Nominee Lienholder Agreement shall apply solely with respect to their
related Loans, Loan Agreements and Segregated Collateral

82

 

Pools. Morgan Stanley (or such other Person as shall be acting as Collateral Agent on
the Collateral Split Effective Date) hereby assigns and delegates to the new Collateral
Agent for the RBS Lender Group (the “RBS Collateral Agent”), and the new Collateral
Agent hereby accepts and assumes, effective as of the Collateral Split Effective Date, all
of Morgan Stanley’s rights, privileges, duties and obligations in respect of the new
Collateral Agent’s Segregated Collateral Pool (including, without limitation, its security
interest in the Pledged Receivables and other Pledged Assets included in such Segregated
Collateral Pool granted pursuant to Section 2.11 of this Agreement).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Lenders and the Collateral Agent shall retain any
rights to indemnification under the Transaction Documents arising in connection with
circumstances in existence prior to the Collateral Split Effective Date; provided,
that from any after the Collateral Split Effective Date, any claims for indemnification in
respect of such circumstances shall be payable solely from Collections in respect of its
related Segregated Collateral Pool, except to the extent expressly provided in Section
2.04 of the unrelated Loan Agreement;

     (vi) The “Secured Parties” in respect of each Loan Agreement shall be comprised of each
related Lender, the related Collateral Agent, the related Custodian, the related Lender’s
Bank, the “Secured Parties” under (and as defined in) the other Loan Agreement and, in the
case of the MS Loan Agreement, the Backup Servicer and their respective successors and
assigns in such capacities, and the Collateral Agent for such Loan Agreement shall be deemed
to hold its security interest in the related Segregated Collateral Pool solely for the
benefit of such Persons. Each of the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive payments
in respect of the Obligations owed to it under its related Loan Agreement and the other
related transaction documents solely to the extent funds are available thereunder in
accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.04 of its related
Loan Agreement or Section 2.04 of the unrelated Loan Agreement. For the avoidance
of doubt, a Collateral Split shall be considered a modification of the relative rights of
the Secured Parties only and not the termination of any existing grant of a security
interest by the Borrower. In connection with a Collateral Split, each of the Borrower and
the Collateral Agent under this Agreement (prior to the Collateral Split Effective Date)
shall cooperate with the RBS Collateral Agent in taking any actions as may be necessary to
ensure the continued perfection and priority of such Collateral Agent’s security interest in
the Segregated Collateral Pool for the RBS Lender Group, including, without limitation,
filing (or authorizing the filing of) any necessary UCC financing statements or financing
statement amendments (including assignments); and

     (vii) The Equity Payment payable to the Owner in accordance with the priority of
payments set forth in Section 2.04 of this Agreement (prior to the Collateral Split
Effective Date) shall, following the Collateral Split Effective Date, be divided into two
payments, one payable under each Loan Agreement in accordance with the priority of payments
set forth in Section 2.04 thereof. The amount of each such partial payment shall
equal each relevant Lender Group’s Allocable Share of the entire Equity Payment then due;
provided, that in no event shall any partial payment be made under a Loan Agreement, if, at
such time, any Termination Event or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under
such Loan Agreement.

83

 

     (d) Any Lender Group replacing the Servicer with respect to its Loan Agreement shall promptly
deliver to the Lenders in the other Lender Group prompt notice of such replacement, together with a
copy of the executed Successor Servicing Agreement and all amendments thereto.

     (e) Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable (and reasonably documented) costs and expenses of
the parties hereto (including, without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred in
connection with the Collateral Split on the Remittance Date immediately prior to the Collateral
Split Effective Date in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section
2.04(a)(vi).

     SECTION 7.04 Collateral Split Buyout Rights. If any Primary Lender delivers a
Collateral Split Notice pursuant to Section 7.03(a), then the other Primary Lender and each
of its Related Lenders shall have the right (its “Collateral Split Buyout Right”) to
purchase 100% (but, subject to the following sentence, not less than 100%) of the Loans made by
such notifying Lender and its Related Lenders (the “Buyout Loans”), which Collateral Split
Buyout Right shall terminate if not exercised within ten (10) days following the date on which the
Collateral Split Notice is delivered. If more than one Lender desires to exercise its Collateral
Split Buyout Right with respect to the Buyout Loans, it shall be entitled to purchase up to its
ratable share (based on Percentages) of such Loans. Upon the exercise of its Collateral Split
Buyout Right, each exercising Lender shall purchase its ratable share of the Buyout Loans by paying
a purchase price to the selling Lenders equal to such exercising Lender’s ratable share of (i) the
outstanding principal balance of the Buyout Loans on the date of assignment, plus (ii) the
amount of unpaid interest accrued thereon through such date. Such assignment shall be made in
accordance with Section 9.04 hereof pursuant to documentation that is reasonably acceptable
to the buyer and seller, except that such assignment documentation shall not require any
representation or warranty by, or recourse to, the seller, other than the representation that the
Loans (or sold portion thereof) are being conveyed to the buyer free and clear of any lien or other
encumbrance created by or through the buyer. If any selling Lender is the Collateral Agent,
concurrently with any assignment of the Buyout Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 7.04, the Collateral Agent shall assign and delegate to the purchasing Lender with
the greatest interest in Class A Notes, or if no purchasing Lender is a Class A Lender, to the
purchasing Lender with the greatest interest in the Class B Notes, or in either case, such Person’s
designee, all of its rights and obligations as Collateral Agent under this Agreement pursuant to
documentation reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, such assignee and the other purchasing
Lenders, if any, and the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, if such documentation shall
diminish any rights or increase any obligations of such Person thereunder; provided,
however, that if any rights or obligations of the Borrower or the Servicer would be
materially and adversely affected by such assignment and delegation, then the consent of the
Borrower and the Servicer, as applicable, shall be required with respect to such assignment and
delegation documentation. In connection with any assignment pursuant to this Section 7.04,
the selling Lenders shall be entitled to retain all of their rights in respect of any unpaid fees,
as well as any claims for indemnity or similar rights arising from circumstances in existence prior
to date of assignment. The preceding sentence shall survive the assignment by any applicable
selling Lender of its Loans or other rights under this Agreement.

without limitation, the Borrower’s interest in and to any and all Obligor Collateral with
respect to such Receivables), free and clear of any Adverse Claim whether existing at the

time with other funds;

     (xiv) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to this Agreement or the use
of proceeds of Loans or the Pledged Assets;

     (xv) any failure by the Borrower to give reasonably equivalent value to Originator in
consideration for the transfer by Originator to the Borrower of any Receivable or any
attempt by any Person to void or otherwise avoid any such transfer under any statutory
provision or common law or equitable action, including, without limitation, any provision of
the Bankruptcy Code;

     (xvi) Reserved;

86

 

     (xvii) any failure of the Borrower or any of its agents or representatives to remit to

respect to such Obligor.

Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 8.01 shall be paid by
the Borrower to the applicable Lender on behalf of the applicable Indemnified Party within two (2)
Business Days following such Lender’s written demand therefor on behalf of the applicable
Indemnified Party (and such Lender shall pay such amounts to the applicable Indemnified Party
promptly after the receipt by such Lender of such amounts). Each Lender, on behalf of any related
Indemnified Party making a request for indemnification under this Section 8.01, shall

computations of the Indemnified Amounts with respect to which such indemnification is requested,
which certificate shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

     If the Borrower has made any payments in respect of Indemnified Amounts to a Lender, on behalf
of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.01 and such Indemnified Party thereafter

collected to the Borrower, without interest.

imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Indemnified Party’s principal executive office is
located, on or measured by the overall net income of such Indemnified Party; (C) Indemnified
Amounts to the extent that they are or result from lost profits (other than principal, interest and
Fees with respect to the Loans); and (D) Indemnified Amounts to the extent the same includes losses
that arise solely due to Receivables being uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy
or lack of creditworthiness of the related Obligor or would constitute recourse to Servicer for
such losses:

     (i) the inclusion, in any computations made by it in connection with any Facility Limit
Certificate or Monthly Remittance Report or other report prepared by it

87

 

hereunder, of any Pledged Receivables which were not Eligible Receivables as of the
date of any such computation;

Collections of Pledged Receivables at any time with any other funds;

     (vi) any failure of the Servicer (if LEAF Financial or one of its Affiliates) or any of

MISCELLANEOUS

     SECTION 9.01 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or modification of any provision of
this Agreement shall be effective without the written agreement of the Borrower, the Servicer, the
Controlling Holders and, to the extent any of their rights or obligations hereunder are adversely
affected thereby, the Backup Servicer or other successor Servicer, the Custodian, the Lenders’
Bank, each Qualifying Swap Counterparty and, at any time after the Collateral Split Effective Date,
each related “Secured Party” (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) under (and as defined in)
(a) the MS Loan Agreement (in the case of amendments to the RBS Loan Agreement) or (b) the RBS Loan
Agreement (in the case of amendments to the MS Loan Agreement) (the “Amendment Consent
Parties”); and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure
therefrom by the Borrower or the Servicer shall be effective without the written concurrence of the
Controlling Holders and the Amendment Consent Parties; provided, however, that at
all times the written agreement of all of the affected Lenders shall be required with respect to
any amendment or modification of, or waiver or consent with respect to, any provision of this
Agreement which would (i) extend the due date for the payment of principal or interest on the Class
A Loan or the Class B Loan, (ii) reduce the principal or interest payable in respect of any Class A
Note or any Class B Note, (iii) subject to Section 7.03, result in the release of the
security interest of the Collateral Agent in any Pledged Asset or (iv) modify the definition of
“Controlling Holders”, Section 2.04(a), Article VII or this Section 9.01;
and provided, further, that at any time after the Collateral Split Effective Date,
the consent of the Amendment Consent Parties with respect to each Loan Agreement shall only be
required in respect of any amendment or modification of, or waiver or consent with respect to, any
provision of such Loan Agreement which would modify Section 2.04(a) (including any defined
terms used therein) or this Section 9.01 (including any defined terms used herein). Any
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for
which given.

     SECTION 9.02 Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (including telex communication,
communication by facsimile copy or electronic mail) and mailed, telexed, transmitted or delivered,
as to each party hereto, at its address set forth on Schedule VI hereto or specified in
such party’s Assignment and Acceptance or at such other address (including, without limitation, an
electronic mail address) as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other
parties hereto. All such notices and communications shall be effective, upon receipt, or in the
case of notice by facsimile copy or electronic mail, when verbal communication of receipt is

89

 

obtained, except that notices and communications pursuant to Article II shall not be
effective until received.

     SECTION 9.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender to exercise,
and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of
any remedies provided by law.

     SECTION 9.04 Binding Effect; Assignability; Multiple Lenders. (a) This Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Lenders, the
Collateral Agent, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer, as applicable, the
Custodian, the Lenders’ Bank and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement
and each Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder (and under its related Note) and interest herein
shall be assignable in whole or in part (including by way of the sale of participation interests
therein) by such Lender and its successors and assigns; provided, however, that if
either of Morgan Stanley or Morgan Stanley AFI assigns all or any portion of its Notes to any third
party at any time prior to the Collateral Split, then RBS shall have the right (but no obligation)
to sell to the assigning party a portion of its Notes of the same class sold to such third party
such that, after giving effect to the assignment by Morgan Stanley or Morgan Stanley AFI to such
third party and the assignment by RBS pursuant to this proviso, the aggregate amount of Notes of
the sold class that are held by Morgan Stanley or Morgan Stanley AFI, on the one hand, and RBS, on
the other hand, will be equal; and, provided, further, that if RBS assigns all or
any portion of its Notes to any third party at any time prior to the Collateral Split, then
whichever of Morgan Stanley or Morgan Stanley AFI is then holding Notes of the sold class shall
have the right (but no obligation) to sell to RBS a portion of its Notes of such class such that,
after giving effect to the assignment by RBS to such third party and the assignment by Morgan
Stanley or Morgan Stanley AFI, as the case may be, to RBS pursuant to this proviso, the aggregate
amount of Notes of the sold class that are held by Morgan Stanley or Morgan Stanley AFI, on the one
hand, and RBS, on the other hand, will be equal (it being understood and agreed that, for the
avoidance of doubt, neither of the two preceding provisos shall apply to any pledge or other
hypothecation by any such Lender of its rights and obligations hereunder or interests herein solely
to the extent that such pledge or hypothecation does not constitute a sale). The purchase price
for any assignment made pursuant to either proviso of the foregoing sentence shall be based on the
same discount to par, or premium over par, that applies to the relevant third party assignment,
taking into account any fees or other arrangements that would affect the economics of such
assignment. None of the Borrower, the Servicer or the Backup Servicer or any other successor
Servicer may assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the
prior written consent of the Lenders; provided that the Borrower shall be permitted, on not less
than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice to the other parties hereto and with the prior written
consent of the Lenders, to be provided in the sole discretion of the Lenders, to assign all of its
rights and obligations hereunder to, and simultaneously with the transfer of all Pledged Assets to,
a Permitted Transferee which shall have assumed in a writing satisfactory to the Lenders all such
rights and obligations and acquired all such Pledged Assets. The parties to each assignment or
participation made pursuant to this Section 9.04 shall execute and deliver to the
applicable Lender, for its acceptance and recording in its books and records, an assignment and
acceptance agreement (an “Assignment and 

90

 

Acceptance”) or a participation agreement or other transfer instrument reasonably
satisfactory in form and substance to (i) the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii)
prior to an Event of Default, the Borrower. Each such assignment or participation shall be
effective as of the date specified in the applicable Assignment and Acceptance or other agreement
or instrument only after the execution, delivery, acceptance and recording thereof as described in
the preceding sentence. Each Lender shall notify the Borrower of any assignment or participation
thereof made pursuant to this Section 9.04. Each Lender may, in connection with any
assignment or participation or any proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this
Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant
any information relating to the Borrower and the Pledged Assets furnished to such Lender by or on
behalf of the Borrower or the Servicer; provided, however, that such Lender shall
not disclose any such information until it has obtained an agreement from such assignee or
participant or proposed assignee or participant that it shall treat as confidential (under terms
mutually satisfactory to such Lender, the Borrower, the Servicer and such assignee or participant
or proposed assignee or participant) any information obtained which is not already publicly known
or available, and may disclose information relevant to the tax treatment and tax structure of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     (b) Reserved.

     (c) Subject to Section 9.04(a), each of the parties hereto hereby agrees to execute
any amendment to this Agreement that is required in order to facilitate the addition of any new
Lender hereunder as contemplated by this Section 9.04 and which does not have any adverse
effect on the Borrower, the Originator, the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof.

     SECTION 9.05 Term of This Agreement. This Agreement including, without limitation,
the Borrower’s obligation to observe its covenants set forth in Articles V and VI
and the Servicer’s obligation to observe its covenants set forth in Articles V and
VI, shall remain in full force and effect until the Collection Date; provided,
however, that the rights and remedies with respect to any breach of any representation and
warranty made or deemed made by the Borrower or the Servicer pursuant to Articles III and
IV and the indemnification and payment provisions of Article VIII and
Article IX and the provisions of Section 9.08 and Section 9.09 shall be
continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.06 GOVERNING LAW; JURY WAIVER; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. (a) THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES
THEREOF THAT WOULD CALL FOR THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, EXCEPT TO THE
EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE INTERESTS OF THE LENDERS IN THE PLEDGED RECEIVABLES,
OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT THEREOF, ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN
THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

     (b) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT IT

AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER.

RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH OF THE PARTIES
HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY
OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, THAT IT MAY NOW
OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE
OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH SERVICE MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED
BY NEW YORK LAW.

     SECTION 9.07 Costs, Expenses and Taxes. (a) In addition to the rights of
indemnification granted to the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer (whether in its
capacity as Backup Servicer or successor Servicer), the Custodian, the Lenders’ Bank, the
Collateral Agent, each Lender and its respective Affiliates under Section 8.01 hereof, the
Borrower agrees to pay on demand all reasonable (and reasonably documented) costs and expenses of
the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, the Custodian, the Lenders’ Bank, the

or in connection herewith.

92

 

     (b) The Borrower shall pay on demand any and all stamp, sales, excise and other taxes and fees
payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and
recording of this Agreement, the other documents to be delivered hereunder or any agreement or
other document providing liquidity support, credit enhancement or other similar support to any
Lender which is specific to this Agreement or the funding or maintenance of Loans hereunder.

     (c) The Borrower shall pay on demand all other costs, expenses and taxes (excluding franchise
and income taxes) incurred by any Lender or the Initial Qualifying Swap Counterparty or any
shareholder thereof related to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any Qualifying
Interest Rate Swap or similar interest rate cap agreement (“Other Costs”), including,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for such Lender or

mistakes with respect to the Collateral), except for those arising out of or in connection with the
Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or (ii) responsible in any manner to any
Secured Party for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or

connection with, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or for the value, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other

bond or other paper or document which it has no reasonable reason to believe to be other than
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties or, in the case of
cables, telecopies and telexes, to have been sent by the proper party or parties. Absent its gross
negligence or willful misconduct, the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth of
the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or
opinions furnished to the Collateral Agent and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents, if any.

Borrower or the Servicer, except as specified herein. The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to
have knowledge of any Program Termination Event unless the Collateral Agent has received notice
from the Borrower, the Servicer or a Secured Party.

     SECTION 10.06 Non-Reliance on Collateral Agent. Each Lender expressly acknowledges

attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by
the Collateral Agent hereafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of
the Borrower, its Affiliates or any Servicer, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or

Agent, acting in its capacity as Collateral Agent, is entitled to with respect to (i) reimbursement
by the Borrower hereunder and (ii) any other expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent, in
connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document; provided, however, that (i) RBS and its assigns will not be responsible
for any expenses which the Collateral Agent elects to incur in its discretion exceeding $50,000 in
the aggregate without the prior approval of RBS and its assigns, as applicable.

     SECTION 10.08 Collateral Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Collateral Agent and
each of its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of
business with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower as though the Collateral Agent were not
the Collateral Agent hereunder.

     SECTION 10.09 Successor Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may, upon thirty (30)
Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower, the Servicer, the Lenders, the Backup Servicer
or any other successor Servicer, as applicable, the Custodian and the Lenders’ Bank resign as
Collateral Agent; provided, that each Lender agrees to become the successor Collateral
Agent in such capacity hereunder in accordance with the next sentence with the approval of the
Controlling Holders. If the Collateral Agent resigns under this Agreement, then the Controlling
Holders during such period shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor collateral agent,
whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of such Collateral
Agent, and the term “Collateral Agent”, shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its
acceptance of such appointment and its delivery of a duly executed counterpart of this Agreement
and an acknowledgment to the Collateral Agent, and such former Collateral Agent’s rights, powers
and duties as Collateral Agent, shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on
the part of such former agent or any of the parties to this Agreement; provided,

96
