replacements and accessions thereto, referred to as the
"Equipment") described in the Essential Use of Equipment

such items of the Equipment are accepted by Lessee as
indicated on the Certificate of Acceptance (the "Commencement
Date"), and shall terminate on the last business day of
Lessee's then current fiscal budget period (such period being
hereinafter referred to as the "Original Term"). As used
herein, "business day" means any day on which commercial banks
are open for the purpose of carrying on a commercial banking

(b) Renewal of Lease Term. The Original Term with
respect to those items of the Equipment described in a
certificate of Acceptance will be automatically and suc-
cessively renewed at the end of the original Term under the
same terms and conditions for such number of successive
renewal periods ("Renewal Terms") as is set forth on the
Schedule of Payments ("Schedule") executed by Lessee and
attached to such Certificate of Acceptance. The last Renewal
Term shall end on the last day of the Full Lease Term (as
specified on the related Schedule, provided that, for purposes

book entry system to register the owner of this Agreement so
as to meet the applicable requirements of section 149(a)(3) of
the Code; (ii) timely file a Form 8038-G (or, if the invoice
price of the Equipment is less than $100,000, a Form S03S-GC)
with the Internal Revenue Service in accordance with Section
149(e) of the Code; (iii) not permit the Equipment to be

2. If Lessor either (i) receives notice, in any form,
from the Internal Revenue Service; or (ii) reasonably deter-
mines, based on an opinion of independent tax counsel selected
by Lessor and approved by Lessee, which approval Lessee shall
not unreasonably withhold, that Lessor may not exclude any
interest from Federal gross income because Lessee breached a
covenant contained herein, then Lessee shall pay to Lessor
within thirty (30) days after Lessor notifies Lessee of such
determination an amount equal to the sum of (x) penalties,
fines, interest, and additions to tax (including taxes imposed
on the interest component of all rental payments due through
the date of such event) that are imposed on Lessor as a result
of the loss of the exclusion and that Lessor cannot deduct in
computing its Federal income tax liability divided by one
minus the highest Federal regular marginal tax rate in effect
for the tax period for which Lessor lost the exclusion plus
(y) penalties, fines, interest, and additions to tax that are
imposed on Lessor as a result of the loss of the exclusion and
that Lessor can deduct in computing its Federal income tax
liability. Additionally, Lessee agrees that upon the
occurrence of such an event, it shall pay additional rent to
Lessor on each succeeding rent payment due date in such amount
as will maintain Lessor's after-tax yield on the transaction
evidenced by this Agreement.
