                      and/or its agents may enter upon any premises under the
                      control or jurisdiction of LESSEE or any agent of LESSEE
                      without liability for suit, action or proceeding by LESSEE
                      (any damages occasioned by such repossession being hereby

unpaid Monthly Lease Payments, LESSOR'S estimated residual value, with both the
accelerated payments and residual value being discounted to present value as of
the date of default at an annual factor of six percent (6%), plus all other
unpaid sums of charges together with all costs and expenses incurred by, LESSOR
including its reasonable attorneys' fees. LESSOR, at its option,may apply the
Initial Payments against the LESSEE'S obligations under this Lease.

not be a bar to the institution of litigation by LESSOR against LESSEE for
damages for breach of this Lease, as hereinbefore provided, and the commencement

LESSOR'S rights to repossess any or all of the Equipment.

rights now or hereafter conferred by stature of otherwise which may require
LESSOR to sell, lease or otherwise use any Equipment in mitigation of LESSEE'S
damages, as set forth in this Paragraph or which may otherwise limit or modify
any of LESSOR'S rights or remedies under this Paragraph.

sustained as a result of any breach of this Lease in any action or proceeding in
which LESSOR seeks to recover such damages or the return of the Equipment.

by LESSEE. All legal and equitable, actions between LESSEE and LESSOR can be

determination of LESSOR, and LESSEE consents thereto.
