                             MASTER EQUIPMENT LEASE

This is a Master Equipment Lease between PENTECH FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC., whose
principal office is located at 310 West Hamilton Avenue, Suite 202, Campbell,
California 95008 ("Lessor") and 3Dfx Interactive, Inc., whose principal office
address is 4435 Fortran Dr., City of San Jose, State of California ("Lessee").

1. LEASE. Lessor agrees to lease to Lessee and Lessee agrees to lease from
Lessor, subject to the terms and conditions of this Master Equipment Lease
("Lease"), the personal property ("Equipment") described in each Acceptance
Supplement ("Supplement") executed and delivered by Lessor and Lessee pursuant
to the terms of this Lease. Each Supplement shall be in the form prescribed by
Lessor and, upon execution and delivery, shall constitute a part of this Lease
to the same extent as if the provisions thereof were set forth in full in this
Lease document; the terms "Agreement," "hereof," "herein," and "thereunder,"
when used in this Lease shall mean this Lease, each Supplement and each Schedule
as hereinafter defined. The Agreement constitutes an agreement to lease.
Ownership of the Equipment remains with Lessor and nothing herein contained
shall be construed as conveying to Lessee any right, title or interest in the
equipment except as Lessee only.

2. SELECTION OF EQUIPMENT. Lessee acknowledges that it has selected the type,
quantity and supplier of the Equipment referred to herein and that it has
requested Lessor to purchase the same for leasing to Lessee. Lessee agrees that
the Equipment and each part or unit thereof is of a design, size, quality and
capacity required by Lessee and is suitable for its purposes. Lessee
acknowledges that Lessor has informed or advised Lessee, in writing either
previously or by this Lease, of the following: (i) the identity of the supplier;
(ii) that the Lessee may have rights under the Supply Contract; and (iii) that
the Lessee may contact the supplier for a description of any such rights Lessee
may have under the Supply Contract. Lessor hereby assigns to Lessee all rights
which Lessor has or may acquire against any manufacturer, supplier, or
contractor with respect to any warranty or representation relating to the
Equipment leased thereunder.

3. EQUIPMENT TO REMAIN PERSONAL PROPERTY; LOCATION, IDENTIFICATION; INSPECTION.
Lessee represents that the Equipment shall be and at all times remain separately
identifiable personal property. Lessee shall, at its own expense, take such
action as may be necessary to prevent any third party from acquiring any right
to or interest in the Equipment by virtue of the Equipment being deemed to be
real property or a part of other personal property, and shall indemnify Lessor
against any loss which it may sustain by reason of Lessee's failure to do so.
The Equipment may not be removed from the location specified in the Supplement
pertaining thereto without Lessor's prior written consent. If requested by
Lessor, Lessee shall attach to and maintain on each item of Equipment a
conspicuous plate or marking disclosing Lessor's ownership thereof. Lessor or
its representatives may, at all reasonable times, and without advance notice,
inspect the Equipment. Lessee shall promptly advise Lessor of any circumstances
which may in any manner affect any item of Equipment or in any manner affect
Lessor's title thereto.

4. EXECUTION OF FURTHER DOCUMENTATION. Lessee will, at its own expense, promptly
execute and deliver to Lessor such further documentation and assurances and take
such further action as Lessor may from time to time require in order to more
effectively carry out the intent and purpose of the Agreement so as to establish
and protect the rights, interests and remedies intended to be created in favor
of Lessor thereunder, including, without limitation, the execution and filing of
financing statements and continuation statements with respect to the Equipment
and Agreement. Lessee authorizes Lessor to effect any such filing (including the
filing of any financing statements without the signature of Lessee). Any expense
incurred by Lessor in connection with any filings under this paragraph shall be
payable by Lessor on demand.

5. DISCLAIMER OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. THE PROPERTY WILL BE LEASED "AS IS" AND
"WHERE IS." THE LESSOR HAS NOT MADE, MAY NOT BE CONSIDERED TO HAVE MADE, AND
SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS: 

(1) ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE
PROPERTY, REGARDING TITLE, CONDITION, DESIGN, OPERATION, MERCHANTABILITY,
FREEDOM FROM CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT OR THE LIKE, FITNESS FOR USE FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, QUALITY OF MATERIALS OR WORKMANSHIP, ABSENCE OF DISCOVERABLE
OR NONDISCOVERABLE DEFECTS, OR THAT THE EQUIPMENT IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY
APPLICABLE GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS OR REGULATIONS; AND

(2) ANY OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE
PROPERTY (INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY ARISING FROM A COURSE OF PERFORMANCE,
COURSE OF DEALING, OR USAGE OF TRADE); AND

(3) ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY REGARDING THE
CHARACTERIZATION OF THIS LEASE FOR TAX, ACCOUNTING, OR OTHER PURPOSES.

THE LESSEE WAIVES, RELEASES, RENOUNCES, AND DISCLAIMS EXPECTATION OF OR RELIANCE
ON ANY SUCH WARRANTY OR WARRANTIES.

THE LESSOR WILL NOT HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO THE LESSEE OR ANY
OTHER PERSON, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR TORT, OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENCE OR
STRICT LIABILITY OF THE LESSOR OR OTHERWISE, FOR:

(1) ANY LIABILITY, LOSS, OR DAMAGE CAUSED OR ALLEGED TO BE CAUSED DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY BY THE PROPERTY; BY ANY INADEQUACY, DEFICIENCY OR DEFECT OF THE
PROPERTY; OR BY ANY OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE;

(2) THE USE, OPERATION, OR PERFORMANCE OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY RISKS RELATING TO
IT;

(3) ANY CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING THOSE FOR INTERRUPTION OF SERVICE, LOSS
OF BUSINESS, OR ANTICIPATED PROFITS; OR

(4) THE DELIVERY, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, IMPROVEMENT, OR REPLACEMENT OF
THE PROPERTY.

6. TERM; ACCEPTANCE; RENT; RETURN. The term of lease of each item of Equipment
shall commence on the Commencement Date specified in the Supplement pertaining
to such Equipment and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions
hereof, shall continue for the term specified in such Supplement. Lessee's
execution and delivery of each Supplement shall constitute Lessee's irrevocable
acceptance of the equipment covered thereby for all purposes of this Agreement.
Lessee shall pay to Lessor, at the addresses specified above or at such other
address as may be provided by Lessor from time to time, rent as specified in
each Supplement. Each date on which an installment of rent is payable is
designated herein as "Rent Payment Date." As to each Supplement, the first Rent
Payment Date shall be the Rent Payment Date set forth therein, with the
succeeding Rent Payment Date on the corresponding day of each month thereafter.
In addition, if applicable, Lessee shall pay interim rent for the period between
the actual commencement of the rent under each Supplement and the date
designated as the Rent Payment Date, based on a 30 day month and the number of
days between the actual commencement date and the first Rent Payment Date.
Should any payment not be made by Lessee on or before the applicable Rent
Payment Date, Lessor shall be entitled to a late payment charge in addition to
the actual rent due of 5% of the late rent and any other amount due but unpaid
under this Agreement. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the term of
lease of each item of Equipment leased thereunder, Lessee



<PAGE>   2
shall at its own expense return such item to Lessor at such location as Lessor
may designate, in the condition required to be maintained by Paragraph 9 hereof.

7. LESSEE'S OBLIGATIONS IRREVOCABLE. The Lessee's obligation to pay all rent
will be absolute and unconditional and will not be affected or reduced by any
circumstance, including: 
(1) Any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense, or other right that the
Lessee may have for any reason against the Lessor, the manufacturer, any seller
of the property, or any person providing services with respect to the property;
(2) Any defect in the title, condition, design, operation, or fitness for use of
the property; any damage to, or loss or destruction of, the property; or any
interruption or cessation in its use or possession by the Lessee for any reason,
whether arising out of or related to an act or omission of the Lessor or any
other person;
(3) Any liens with respect to the property;
(4) The invalidity or unenforceability of this Agreement or any absence of
right, power or authority of the Lessor or Lessee to enter into this Lease;
(5) Any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or similar proceedings by or
against the Lessor or Lessee; or
(6) Any other circumstance or occurrence of any nature, whether or not similar
to any of the foregoing.

It is the express intention of the Lessor and Lessee that all rent payable under
this Agreement will be payable in all events, unless the obligation to pay is
terminated under the express provisions of this Agreement.

The Lessee hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law, all rights that it may
now have or later acquire, by order or otherwise, to terminate this Agreement or
any obligation imposed on the Lessee in relation to this Agreement.

Nothing in this Agreement may be construed as a waiver of the Lessee's right to
seek a separate recovery of any payment of rent that is not due and payable
under this Agreement. The Lessee retains any right it may have to seek damages,
specific performance, or any other remedy at law or in equity, separately or in
combination, against the Lessor or any other person, on account of the Lessor's
or other person's failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

8. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. THE LESSEE MAY NOT SUBLET OR TRANSFER POSSESSION OF
THE PROPERTY WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE LESSOR WHICH MAY BE
WITHHELD IN THE SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION OF THE LESSOR. THE LESSEE MAY NOT
ASSIGN, PLEDGE, OR OTHERWISE ENCUMBER THIS LEASE.

With respect to any sublease or transfer of possession of the property, the
rights of the sublessee or transferee will be subject and subordinate to all the
terms of this Agreement, including the Lessor's right of repossession on the
occurrence of an event of default. The Lessee will remain primarily liable for
the performance of all the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if the
sublease or transfer of possession had not occurred.

The Lessor will have the right, at its sole expense, to assign, sell, or
encumber any part of its interest in the property or in this Agreement and any
proceeds of the disposition of that interest, subject to the Lessee's rights
under this lease. To effect or facilitate such assignment, sale or encumbrance,
the Lessee agrees to provide all agreements, consents, conveyances or documents
that may be reasonably requested by the Lessor, including an unrestricted
release of the Lessor from its obligations under this Agreement. That release
will not release the Lessor from any liability that arose before the assignment
or sale.

Any person who succeeds to the rights and interests of the Lessor under this
clause will agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement without alteration.

The Lessee acknowledges that an assignment, sale, or encumbrance of the Lessor's
interest would not materially change the Lessee's duties under the Agreement or
materially increase its burdens or risks. Even if such a transfer could be
deemed to have that effect, the Lessee agrees that the assignment, sale or
encumbrance will nevertheless be permitted.

Without prejudice to any rights that the Lessee may have against the Lessor, the
Lessee agrees that it will not assert against an assignee any claim or defense
that it may have against the Lessor.

The agreements, covenants, obligations and liabilities contained in this clause,
including but not limited to, all obligations to pay rent and to indemnify each
indemnitee, are made for the benefit of the indemnitees and their respective
successors and assigns.


9.    MAINTENANCE COVENANT.  The Lessee will:

(1) Furnish all labor and parts required for maintaining, repairing, and
replacing component parts of the property to keep it in good operating condition
and appearance;
(2) Use, operate, maintain, and store the property in a careful and proper
manner;
(3) Protect the property from deterioration;
(4) Comply with the manufacturer's operating procedures and warranty
restrictions and all laws, ordinances, and regulations applicable to the
property or its use and in compliance with the insurance policies required to be
maintained thereunder;
(5) Put the property only to the use contemplated by the manufacturer; and
(6) Maintain accurate and complete records of all repairs and maintenance of the
property and allow the Lessor to inspect those records at any time.
(7) Comply with the maintenance requirements of any maintenance schedule
attached as a part of this agreement.

The Lessee will not make any alterations, additions, or improvements to the
property without the Lessor's prior written consent. All repairs, replacement
parts, additions, alterations, and improvements made to the property by the
Lessee will be considered to be the Lessor's property and subject to the terms
of this Agreement.

10. RISK OF LOSS COVENANT. The Lessee will bear the entire risk of destruction,
loss, theft, requisition of title, or use, confiscation, taking, or damage
(collectively, casualty loss) of the property from any cause during the period
commencing when the property is placed in transit to the Lessee and ending when
the property is returned to the Lessor or its designee following termination as
provided herein. If during that period the property suffers any casualty loss,
the Lessee will notify the Lessor in writing within five days following the
casualty loss. On demand by the Lessor, the Lessee will:
(1) If the damage constituting the casualty loss is repairable, repair the
property to the condition in which the property is required to be maintained
under this Agreement;
(2) If the damaged property is not repairable, replace the property at the
Lessee's sole expense with like property approved by the Lessor and take all
actions and make all payments that may be required to vest in the Lessor title
to the replacement property, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, or
security interests; or
(3) Pay to the Lessor the casualty value (as defined below) and all other
amounts then due under this Agreement.

"Casualty value" is, at any given date, the stipulated loss value as shown on
the applicable Schedule to each Supplement, and is computed to be the sum of:

(1) The discounted value at that time, of the aggregate unpaid monthly rent
payments to be paid through the then remaining term of this Agreement,
discounting that amount at an annual discount rate of 8 percent; and

(2) The Lessor's reasonable estimate, at that time, of the fair market value of
the property at the end of the term of this Agreement, discounted at an annual
discount rate of 8 percent.

11. INSURANCE. Lessee shall maintain at all times on the equipment, at Lessee's
expense, property damages, direct damage, and liability insurance in such
amounts, against such risks, and in such form and with such insurers as shall be
satisfactory to Lessee. The required insurance shall be as specified in the
applicable Supplement, provided, however, that the amount of direct damage
insurance shall not on any date be less than the greater of the full replacement
value or the Stipulated Loss Value of the Equipment as of such date. Each
insurance policy will name Lessor as additional insured and as loss payee, and
shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give to Lessor at least 30 days
prior written notice of any alteration in or cancellation of the terms of such
policy. Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a certificate or other evidence
satisfactory to Lessor that such insurance coverage is in effect, provided,
however, that Lessor shall be under no duty to ascertain the existence or
adequacy of such insurance.

12. TAXES; INDEMNITY. Lessee agrees to pay, and to indemnify and hold Lessor
harmless from, all license fees, assessments, and sales, use, property, excise,
and other taxes and charges (other than federal income taxes and taxes imposed
by any other jurisdiction which are based on, or measured by, the net income of
Lessor for reasons other than the ownership or leasing of the Equipment in such
jurisdiction) imposed upon or with respect to (a) the Equipment or any part
thereof arising out of or in connection with the shipment of Equipment or the
possession, ownership, use or operation thereof, or (b) this Agreement or the
consummation of the transactions herein contemplated. The agreements and
indemnities contained in this paragraph shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Agreement.

13.   DEPRECIATION INDEMNITY.
(1) Lessor, as the owner of the Equipment, shall be entitled to such deductions,
credits and other benefits as are provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1954,
as amended (IRC), to an owner of property.


                                       -2-
<PAGE>   3
(2) Lessee agrees that neither it nor any corporation controlled by it, in
control of it, or under common control with it, directly or indirectly, will at
any time take any action or file any returns or other documents inconsistent
with the foregoing and that each of such corporations will file such returns,
take such action, and execute such documents as may be reasonable and necessary
to facilitate accomplishment of the intent thereof. Lessee agrees to copy and
make available for inspection and copying by Lessor such records as will enable
Lessor to determine whether it is entitled to the benefit of any amortization or
depreciation deduction, or other deduction or credit which may be available from
time to time with respect to the Equipment.
(3) If Lessor, under any circumstances or for any reason whatsoever, except for
acts of Lessor or future changes in the IRC, shall lose or shall not have the
right to claim or there shall be disallowed or recaptured, all or any portion of
the federal tax depreciation deductions with respect to any item of Equipment
based on depreciation of the Lessor's full cost of such item of Equipment and
computed on the basis of a method of depreciation provided by the IRC as Lessor
in its complete discretion may select, then Lessee agrees to pay Lessor upon
demand an amount which, after deduction of all taxes required to be paid by
Lessor in respect of the receipt thereof under the laws of any federal, state,
or local government or taxing authority of the United States or of any taxing
authority or government subsidiary of any foreign country, shall be equal to the
sum of (i) an amount equal to the additional income taxes paid or payable by
Lessor in consequence of the failure to obtain the benefit of a depreciation
deduction, and (ii) any interest and/or penalty which may be assessed in
connection with any of the foregoing.

The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Agreement.

14. INDEMNIFICATION COVENANT. The Lessee agrees to indemnify, reimburse, and
hold harmless each indemnitee from and against all claims, damages, losses,
liabilities, demands, suits, judgments, causes of action, civil and criminal
legal proceedings, penalties, fines and other sanctions, and any attorney fees
and other reasonable costs and expenses, arising or imposed with or without the
Lessor's fault or negligence (whether active or passive) or under the doctrine
of strict liability (collectively, "claims"), relating to or arising in any
manner out of: 
(1) This Agreement or the breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant
made by the Lessee under this Agreement;
(2) Manufacture, purchase, lease, delivery, nondelivery, acceptance, rejection,
ownership, possession, use, operation, return or disposition of the Equipment;
(3) The Equipment's condition or any discoverable or nondiscoverable defect in
it arising from its design, testing, or construction; any article used in the
Equipment; or any maintenance, service, or repair, whether or not the Equipment
is in the Lessee's possession and regardless of where the Equipment is locate
Anyd; or (4) transaction, approval, or document contemplated by this Agreement.
The Lessee waives and releases each indemnitee from any existing or future
claims in any way connected with injury to or death of the Lessee's personnel,
loss or damage of the Lessee's property, or loss of use of any property, which
may:
(a) Result from or arise in any manner out of the ownership, leasing, condition,
use, or operation of the Equipment; or
(b) Be caused by any defect in the Equipment; its design, testing, or
construction; any article used in the Equipment, or any maintenance, service, or
repair, whether or not the Equipment is in the Lessee's possession and
regardless of where the Equipment is located.
The indemnities described in this clause will continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding the expiration or other termination of this Agreement and are
expressly made for the benefit and will be enforceable by each indemnitee.

15. COVENANT TO KEEP FREE OF LIENS. The Lessee will not directly or indirectly
create, incur, assume, or suffer to exist any lien on the Equipment, its title,
or any interest in the lien, except for: 
(1) The respective rights of the Lessor and Lessee under this Agreement;
(2) Liens granted by the Lessor with respect to the Equipment;
(3) Liens for taxes either not yet due or being contested in good faith by the
Lessee as long as adequate reserves are maintained with respect to those liens
and the Equipment is not, in the Lessor's reasonable opinion, in danger of being
sold, confiscated, forfeited, or seized as a result of the liens; and
(4) Inchoate materialmen's, mechanics', workmen's, repairmen's, employees', or
other like liens arising in the ordinary course of business, which either are
not delinquent or are being contested in good faith by the Lessee, as long as
the Equipment is not, in the Lessor's reasonable opinion, in danger of being
sold, confiscated, forfeited, or seized as a result of the liens.

The Lessee will promptly, at its sole expense, take any action that may be
necessary to discharge any lien except for the liens referred to in paragraphs
(1) and (2) arising at any time with respect to the Equipment.

16. WAIVER OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. The Lessee will not be entitled to recover,
and hereby disclaims and waives any right that it may otherwise have to recover,
consequential damages as a result of any breach or alleged breach by the Lessor
of any of the agreements, representations, or warranties of the Lessor contained
in this Agreement.

17. LESSOR'S RIGHT TO PERFORM. If Lessee fails to make any payment required to
be made thereunder or fails to comply with any other provisions of this
Agreement, Lessor may make such payment or comply with such provisions, and the
amount of such payment and the reasonable expenses of Lessor incurred in
connection with such payment or compliance, shall be payable by Lessee.

18. DEFAULT. Any one of the following occurrences shall, in the Lessor's sole
discretion, constitute a material default by Lessee of this Agreement: 
(1) Failure by Lessee to make any payment of rent or other amount owing
thereunder when due;
(2) Failure by Lessee to perform or observe any other covenant, agreement, or
condition thereunder;
(3) Any representation or warranty made by Lessee herein or in any document or
certificate furnished to Lessor in connection herewith shall prove to be
incorrect at any time;
(4) Lessee shall become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of
creditors or consent to the appointment of a trustee or receiver, or a trustee
or receiver shall be appointed for Lessee or for a substantial part of its
property or for the Equipment, or reorganization, arrangement, insolvency,
dissolution, or liquidation proceedings shall be instituted by or against
Lessee. In such event, Lessor may declare this Agreement to be in default, and
may proceed in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 19 hereof.

19. REMEDIES. 

(1) Remedies. On the occurrence of any event of default and at any
time afterwards as long as it continues, the Lessor may, at its option and
without notice to the Lessee, declare this Agreement to be in default and
exercise one or more of the following remedies: 
(a) Declare the then Stipulated Loss Value immediately due and payable with
respect to any or all items of Equipment without notice or demand to Lessee;
(b) Sue for and recover all rent and other payments, then accrued or thereafter
accruing, with respect to any or all items of Equipment;
(c) Take possession of and render unusable any or all items of Equipment,
without demand or notice, wherever same may be located, without any court order
or other process of law and without liability for any damages occasioned by such
taking of possession (any such taking of possession will not constitute a
termination of this lease as to any or all items of Equipment unless Lessor
expressly so notifies Lessee in writing);
(d) Require Lessee to assemble any or all items of Equipment at the original
equipment location, such location to which the equipment may have been moved
with the prior written consent of Lessor, or such other location in reasonable
proximity to either of the foregoing as Lessor designates;
(e) Sell or otherwise dispose of any or all items of Equipment whether or not in
Lessor's possession, in a commercially reasonable manner at public or private
sale and with or without notice to Lessee and apply the net proceeds of such
sale, after deducting all costs of such sale, including, but not limited to,
costs of transportation, repossession, storage, refurbishing, advertising and
broker's fees, to the obligations of Lessee thereunder with Lessee remaining
liable for any deficiency and with any excess being retained by Lessor;
(f) Retain any repossessed items of Equipment and credit the reasonable value
thereof, after deducting all such sales related costs incurred to the date of
crediting, to the obligations of Lessee thereunder with Lessee remaining liable
for any deficiency and with Lessor having no obligation to reimburse Lessee on
account of any excess of such reasonable value over such obligations;
(g) Terminate this lease as to any or all items of Equipment;
(h) Utilize any other remedy available to Lessor at law or in equity.

In each case, plus the amount, if any, as reasonably calculated by the Lessor,
required for the Lessor to receive the same after tax economic return from this
lease that the Lessor would have received if the Lessee had performed all of its
obligations under this Agreement through the end of the lease term.

In addition to the foregoing, the Lessee will be liable for interest on unpaid
amounts at an annual interest rate of 18 percent from the date the same became
due until payment in full, and for all reasonable legal fees and other
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lessor in connection with the
occurrence of any event of default or the exercise of its remedies.

A termination hereunder will occur only upon written notice by Lessor to Lessee
and only with respect to such items of Equipment as to which Lessor specifically
elects to terminate in such notice. Except as to such items with respect to
which there is a termination, this lease will remain in full force and effect
and Lessee will be and remain liable for the full performance of all its
obligations thereunder.


                                       -3-
<PAGE>   4
No right or remedy conferred herein is exclusive of any right or remedy
conferred herein or by law, but all such rights and remedies are cumulative of
every other right or remedy conferred thereunder or at law or in equity, by
statute or otherwise, and may be exercised concurrently or separately from time
to time.

(2) In effecting any repossession, the Lessor and its representatives and
agents, to the extent permitted by law, will: 
(a) Have the right to enter on any premises where the Lessor reasonably believes
the Equipment is located;
(b) Not be liable, in conversion or otherwise, for the taking of any personal
property of the Lessee that is in or attached to the repossessed Equipment as
long as the Lessor promptly returns that property to the Lessee;
(c) Not be liable in any manner for any damage to any of the Lessee's property
in repossessing and holding the Equipment, except for damage caused by the
Lessor's gross negligence or willful misconduct; and
(d) Have the right to maintain possession of and dispose of the Equipment on any
premises owned by the Lessee or under the Lessee's control.

If reasonably required by the Lessor, the Lessee, at its sole expense, will
assemble and make the Equipment available at a place designated by the Lessor.
If the Equipment is returned to or repossessed by the Lessor, any rights in any
express or implied warranty previously assigned to the Lessee or otherwise held
by it will without further act, notice, or writing be assigned or reassigned to
the Lessor, if assignable. The Lessee will be liable to the Lessor for all
reasonable expenses, costs, and fees incurred in (1) repossessing, storing,
preserving, shipping, maintaining, repairing, and refurbishing the Equipment to
the condition required by this Agreement; and (2) preparing the Equipment for
sale or lease, advertising the sale or lease, and selling or re-letting the
Equipment.

No remedy referred to in this paragraph is intended to be exclusive, but, to the
extent permissible under applicable law, each will be cumulative and operate in
addition to any other remedy referred to above or otherwise available to the
Lessor at law or in equity. The exercise or beginning or exercise by the Lessor
of any one or more of its remedies will not preclude the simultaneous or later
exercise by the Lessor of any other remedies.

No express or implied waiver by the Lessor of any default or event of default
will be construed as a waiver of any future or subsequent default or event of
default.

20. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT. The obligation of Lessor contained in paragraph 1 of
this Agreement shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: 
(1) There shall have occurred no material adverse change in the business or the
financial condition of Lessee from the date hereof until the Commencement Date

(2) Lessee shall have furnished Lessor with a certificate or other evidence
satisfactory to Lessor that insurance coverage as required by this Agreement is
in effect as to the item of Equipment desired to be leased;
(3) Unless specifically waived by Lessor, Lessee shall have furnished Lessor
opinions of counsel as to the Agreement, in form and substance acceptable to
Lessor;
(4) Unless specifically waived by Lessor, Lessee shall have furnished Lessor

(5) All other instruments and legal and corporate proceedings in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be satisfactory in form

If any of the above conditions is not satisfied at the time Lessee submits any
Supplement, Lessor shall have no obligation under this Agreement to lease the
Equipment covered thereby to Lessee.
