of the Lender's taking possession of, removing or putting the Pledged Assets in
saleable or disposable form. The proceeds of any such sale, lease or other
disposition of the Pledged Assets shall be applied, first to the expenses of

(a) If an Event of Acceleration shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Lender (and its successor and assigns) shall have the right,
itself or through any of its agents (including the Borrower), with or without
notice to the Borrower (as provided below), as to any or all of the Pledged
Assets related to such Loan Pool, by any available judicial procedure, or
without judicial process (PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that it is in compliance with the
UCC), to take possession of the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool and
without liability for trespass to enter any premises where the Pledged Assets
related to such Loan Pool may be located for the purpose of taking possession of
or removing the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool, and, generally, to
exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under the UCC or other

48
<PAGE>
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower agrees that the Lender
shall have the right to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of all or any part of
the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool, whether in its then condition or
after further preparation or processing, either at public or private sale or any
broker's board, in lots or in bulk, for cash or for credit, with or without
warranties or representations, and upon such terms and conditions, all as the
Lender in its sole discretion may deem advisable, and it shall have the right to
purchase at any such sale; and, if any Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool
shall require rebuilding, repairing, maintenance, preparation, the Lender shall
have the right, at its option, to do such rebuilding or repairing for the
purpose of putting the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool in such salable
or disposable form as it shall deem appropriate. At the Lender's request, the
Borrower shall assemble the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool and make
them available to the Lender at places which the Lender shall select, whether at
Borrower's premises or elsewhere, and make available to the Lender, without
rent, all of Borrower's premises and facilities for the purpose of the Lender's
taking possession of, removing or putting the Pledged Assets related to such
Loan Pool in saleable or disposable form. The proceeds of any such sale, lease
or other disposition of the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool shall be
applied, first to the expenses of retaking, holding, storing, processing and
preparing for sale, selling, lease, leasing and the like, and to the reasonable
attorneys' fees and legal expenses incurred by the Lender and to the payment of
any other amounts required by applicable law. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, the Borrower waives all claims, damages and demands against the
Lender arising out of the repossession, removal, retention or sale or lease of
the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool.
(b) The Borrower authorizes the Lender and does hereby make,
constitute and appoint the Lender, and any officer, employee or agent of the
Lender, with full power of substitution, as Borrower's true and lawful

instruments of payment (including payments payable under or in respect of any
policy of insurance) in respect of the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool
that may come into possession of the Lender, to sign and endorse any invoice,
freight or express bill, bill of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts
against debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with

Pool to pay or discharge taxes, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances
at any time levied or placed on or threatened against the Pledged Assets related
to such Loan Pool; to demand, collect, issue receipt for, compromise, settle and
sue for monies due in respect of the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool:

protect, preserve and realize upon the Pledged Assets related to such Loan Pool
and the Lender's security interest therein to effect the intent of this
Agreement all as fully and effectually as the Borrower night or could do; and
the Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause
to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney shall be
49

Article 11
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
Section 11.1 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the eRoom Parties breach
any Liquidated Damages Obligation, the eRoom Parties shall pay to the Lender
Liquidated Damages within sixty (60) days of the Borrower's receipt of notice of
such breach, unless such breach is cured to the satisfaction of the Lender
within such sixty (60) day period.
(b) The eRoom Parties and the Lender expressly acknowledge and agree
that it would be extremely difficult to determine the Lender's actual damages as
a result of any breach of a Liquidated Damages Obligation, and that the
Liquidated Damages are a fair and reasonable estimate of such actual damages in
light of the magnitude of the actual or anticipated harm that will be caused to
the Lender by any such breach.
(c) The eRoom Parties acknowledge and agree that their obligations to
pay Liquidated Damages are joint and several.
(d) The Liquidated Damages shall be reduced by sixty-six and
two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) if both Donnelly Prehn and William Cole are not
employed on a full-time basis by the Lender (or AMRESCO Commercial Finance, Inc.
or AMRESCO, INC. or their successors or assigns) on the date the related breach
of a Liquidated Damages Obligation occurs, unless (1) both Derek Ellis and
Steven L. Sunyich are not employed by eRoom on such date (unless eRoom replaces
either Messrs. Ellis or Sunyich with a successor that holds a substantially
similar position and that is acceptable to the Lender as of the date of such
replacement in its reasonable and good faith judgment), and/or (2) the Lender
replaces either Donnelly Prehn or William Cole with a successor that holds a
substantially similar position and that is acceptable to eRoom as of the date of
such replacement in its reasonable and good faith judgment, in which event, the
Liquidated Damages shall not be reduced.
Section 11.2 PLEDGE AND GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST FOR LIQUIDATED DAMAGE
OBLIGATION.
(a) As collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and
performance when due of each Liquidated Damages Obligation, and of the eRoom
Parties' obligation to pay Liquidated Damages, the eRoom Parties hereby amend,
modify and restate the continuing security interest in, and lien on, all of the
eRoom Parties' right, title and interest in and to the Liquidated Damages
Collateral which lien and security interest were granted by the eRoom Parties
pursuant to the Program Agreement. Without
50
<PAGE>
limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement also secures the
payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Liquidated Damages that would
be owed by the eRoom Parties to the Lender, but for the fact they are
unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding involving any of the eRoom Parties.
(b) All rights of the Lender and security interests hereunder, shall
be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any change in the time,
manner, amount or place of payment of, or any other term of, all or any of the
Liquidated Damages Obligation or the Liquidated Damages or any other amendment
or waiver of or any consent to any departure from this Agreement; (ii) any
exchange, release or non-perfection of all or any part of the Liquidated Damages
Collateral or any other collateral, or any release from, amendment to, waiver
of, or consent to departure from any or all of the Liquidated Damage Obligation
or the Liquidated Damages, or (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any
other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or
a discharge of the eRoom Parties.
(c) At the request of the Lender, the eRoom Parties shall execute all
UCC financing statements and other documents and shall deliver items (including
but not limited to stock certificates) to the Lender required to continue the
perfection of the Lender's security interests granted pursuant to the Program
Agreement and amended, modified and restated pursuant to this Section 11.2.
ARTICLE 12
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

equally share all legal fees and related costs incurred by the Lender in
connection with the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the Operative
Documents and (ii) shall each pay their own legal fees and related costs
associated with each Lease Financing Loan. The eRoom Parties shall pay their own
legal fees and related costs in connection with the negotiation and drafting of
this Agreement and the Operative Documents. If it is determined in a judicial
proceeding that a party to this Agreement has failed to perform under any
provision of this Agreement or the Operative Documents, and if the other party
shall employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the enforcement, performance
or observance of the terms of this Agreement or the Operative Documents on the
part of the nonperforming party, then such other party, shall be reimbursed by
the nonperforming party, on demand, for reasonable attorneys' fees and other
out-of-pocket expenses including any such costs and expenses incurred in any
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or on appeal.
Section 12.2 INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) The eRoom Parties agree to defend, indemnify, pay and hold
harmless (jointly and severally) the Lender and the officers, directors,
counsel, agents and affiliates of the Lender (collectively, the "ALC
INDEMNITEES") from and against any and
51
<PAGE>
all losses, liabilities, damages and claims, whether based on any federal, state
or foreign laws, statutes, rules and regulations, on common law or equitable
cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against any ALC Indemnitee, in any manner relating to, arising out of
or resulting from any of the Operative Documents, or the transactions
contemplated thereby (collectively, the "ALC INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES");
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that none of the eRoom Parties shall have any obligation to
any ALC Indemnitee hereunder with respect to ALC Indemnified Liabilities to the
extent such ALC Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of that ALC Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertaking to defend,
indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be
unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the eRoom
Parties shall contribute the maximum that they are permitted to pay and satisfy
under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all ALC Indemnified
Liabilities incurred by the ALC Indemnitee or any of them.
(b) The Lender agrees to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless the
eRoom Parties and the officers, directors, counsel, agents and affiliates of the
eRoom Parties (collectively, the "eROOM INDEMNITEES") from and against any and
all losses, liabilities, damages and claims, whether based on any federal, state
or foreign laws, statutes, rules and regulations, on common law or equitable
cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against any such eRoom Indemnitee, in any manner relating to, arising
out of or resulting from the Lender's disclosure of information, or
representations, regarding the Equipment or Refreshment Centers to third parties
(collectively, the "eROOM INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Lender shall have no obligation to any eRoom Indemnitee hereunder with respect
to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such eRoom Indemnified Liabilities
arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that eRoom Indemnitee
as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the
extent that the undertaking to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set
forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of
any law or public policy, the Lender shall contribute the maximum that it is
permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and
satisfaction of all eRoom Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the eRoom
Indemnitee or any of them.
Section 12.3 WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE PARTIES, INCLUDING ANY ASSIGNEES,
HEREBY WAIVE (A) THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF DISPUTES, CLAIMS OR

of the eRoom Parties from any of the terms or conditions thereof, shall in any
event be effective unless
52
<PAGE>
it shall be in writing and signed by each of the eRoom Parties and the Lender.
Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the purpose for which given. No consent to or demand on any of the eRoom
Parties in any case shall entitle any of the eRoom Parties to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. This Agreement
embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Lender and each of
the eRoom Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings including the Program Agreement; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the parties hereto agree that Article IV, "Traditional Equipment
Financing" and Article III, Section 8, "Securitization Servicers" of the Program
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall be binding on the
parties.
Section 12.5 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Each and every right granted to the
Lender hereunder or under any Operative Document or other document delivered
hereunder or in connection herewith, or allowed it by law or equity, shall be
cumulative and may be exercised from time to time. No failure on the part of the
Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right preclude
any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The due
payment and performance of the Borrower's indebtedness, liabilities and
obligations under each Lease Financing Loan and the related Note and the other
documents delivered in connection therewith shall be without regard to any
counterclaim, right of set-off or any other claim whatsoever which the Borrower
may have against the Lender and without regard to any other obligation of any
nature whatsoever which the Lender may have to the Borrower, and no such
counterclaim or set-off shall be asserted by the Borrower in any action, suit or
proceeding instituted by the Lender for payment or performance of the Borrower's
indebtedness, liabilities or obligations under any Note or any of the other

Event of Default or Event of Acceleration has occurred under any of the
Operative Documents or that the Lender has breached its obligations under any of
the Operative Documents.

C. PLATINUM PLANS.
The "REFRESHMENT CENTER LOAN AMOUNT" for each Refreshment Center financed
under the Platinum Plan is calculated using the same methodology used to
calculate the "Refreshment Center Loan Amount" described in Section A of this
Schedule I under the Threshold Plan, except that the Average Daily eRoom
Platinum Plan Revenue (defined below) shall be substituted for the "Average
Daily eRoom Threshold Plan Revenue".
The "AVERAGE DAILY eROOM PLATINUM PLAN REVENUE" shall mean the amount
calculated using either Option 1, Option 2 or Option 3 below, as applicable:
Option 1: If the Lessee has a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.4:1
and occupancy of *** for the previous *** month period, the "Average Daily eRoom
Platinum Plan Revenue" shall be equal to the average revenue received by eRoom
(or Borrower) per Refreshment Center per day using the Platinum Calculation.
Option 2: If the Lessee has a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio between *** and
*** and occupancy of at least *** for the previous *** month period, the
"Average Daily eRoom Platinum Plan Revenue" shall be equal to the average
revenue received by eRoom (or Borrower) per Refreshment Center per day using the
Platinum Calculation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, and at any time limit all such Lease Financing Loans funded
under this Option 2 to no more than *** of the then current Overall Lease
Financing Loans.
Option 3: In all other cases (including cases in which Lender does not
receive information adequate to determine the Lessee's Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio), the "Average Daily eRoom Platinum Plan Revenue" shall be equal to the
Average Daily eRoom Threshold Plan Revenue (described in Section A of this
Schedule I) under the theoretical assumption that the Lessee to such Platinum
Plan Business Lease had selected a Threshold Plan instead of a Platinum Plan;
provided however, that the Average Daily eRoom Platinum Plan Revenue calculated
pursuant to Option 3 shall not exceed the amount calculated in Option 1 above,
assuming that the Lessee had qualified for Option 1 above.
"PLATINUM CALCULATION" shall mean a calculation of the revenue due eRoom
(or Borrower) from the Lessee under the applicable Platinum Plan, as shown by
way of example in Exhibit R.
