provides that:
1 . The terms of the Contract conform to the terms specified in the
Contract Summary section of this Restated Supplement;

counts and information upon which xxxxxxxx may be rendered for Fee Per Scan
Contracts. Hologic acknowledges that SBCC may rely upon such information
in billing for and allocating Payments due under Fee Per Scan Contracts.
SBCC may use whatever means as are available to it to obtain and verify
such information if not so provided by Hologic, and Hologic will reimburse
SBCC for all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith.
4. Non-Performing and Terminated Contracts, Repositioning. If a Contract
--------------------------------------------------------
becomes a Non-Performing Contract or the Contract is terminated prior to
its initial scheduled term (but not terminated in connection with a
prepayment in full or conversion to a Converted Contract) and upon Buyer's
request or at Seller's option, with Buyer's consent (which will not be
unreasonably withheld), Seller will "Reposition" the Equipment
------------

purchaser in the same manner as if the Seller were Remarketing the
Equipment under paragraph 5 of this Restated Supplement. Upon Seller's
successful Repositioning of Equipment, any resulting lease or rental
contract will constitute a replacement for the Contract originally relating
to the Equipment and any payments under the new contract will be treated
and applied as Payments with respect to the Equipment (any payments in
excess of the applicable Attributed Rentals will however, be applied first
against any future Attributed Rentals for which there is no corresponding
required payment under the replacement contract). Upon the successful
Repositioning of any Equipment by sale, the proceeds of such sale will be
applied in an inverse order of maturity against the unpaid Investment
Balance for the Equipment.
5. Remarketing. The following provisions will apply with respect to
-------------
Contracts and Equipment covered by this Restated Supplement:
(a) Appointment, Priority. Buyer hereby appoints Seller as its
---------------------
agent, to Remarket Equipment covered by this Restated Supplement for a
term commencing with the date of this Restated Supplement and
continuing until each item of Equipment subject to Remarketing is sold
to the then Obligor or other end user, and the provisions of this
Section will apply with respect to the Remarketing of Equipment during
such term. The terms "Remarket" or "Remarketing" as used herein will
---------- -------------
mean the re-lease, rental, lease and sale of Equipment as provided in
this Section 3, on prices, terms and conditions acceptable to Buyer.
Seller shall use its best efforts to Remarket Equipment. No priority
is required to be given by Seller to Remarket Equipment owned by
Buyer, but Seller shall not discriminate against Buyer in favor of any
new or used equipment or upgrades owned managed or remarketed by
Seller. Seller will not replace any Equipment owned by Buyer with
Equipment owned by Seller or any other third party that performs,
substantially the same functions as Buyer's Equipment (e.g. no "like
for like" replacements).

---------------------------
Contract or-other agreement covering any item of equipment
covered by this Restated Supplement ceases to be subject to a
Contract, renewal or extension. of a Contract or a rental or

agreement will be deemed "Off-Lease" and Seller will diligently

becomes Off-Lease and exercise such of the lessor's remedies
under the appropriate Contract as Buyer may request.

repairs as necessary to place the Equipment in proper working

by model and the number of units held for disposition and number of
units actually disposed of in such period. Seller also will provide to
Buyer, for any month in which Seller Remarkets Equipment, a monthly
Remarketing report, which will cover in detail (i) a listing of
Equipment which became Off-Lease Equipment and Equipment which was
Remarketed during the prior month, and (ii) an inventory description
showing as of the last day of the prior month, the number of and

or the leasing or sale thereof; and
(iii) Sufficient credit information (as may be reasonably

being understood that any such information will be provided
without any warranty as to the accuracy of such information.

in its best commercial judgment, are the most favorable rates
obtainable for equipment of the same type. Seller shall not offer any
credits or discounts to lessees or purchasers of Off-Lease Equipment.
(h) Remarketing Proceeds. All proceeds of any Remarketing, net
--------------------
of sales, use, property, excise, ad valorem, or similar taxes
("Remarketing Proceeds") shall be Buyer's property and shall, if
------------------------
received by Seller, be immediately remitted to Buyer by Seller, in the
form in which they were received. However, Seller will be entitled to
receive such of its documented out-of-pocket costs as have been
approved by Buyer and incurred in connection with the Remarketing of

any item of Equipment subject to Remarketing due to the occurrence of
an Obligor Default is Off-Lease for a period of ninety (90) days or
more, or if any item of Equipment subject to Remarketing due to any
other reason is Off-Lease for a period of sixty (60) days or more,
Buyer may, upon ten (10) days prior written notice, notify Seller of
Buyer's intention to Remarket such Equipment. If Seller fails to
Remarket the item within such ten (10) days, Buyer or its designee may
remarket such item of Equipment on its own behalf. In the event Buyer
arranges a sale of Equipment to a broker or dealer or undertakes to
remarket any Equipment, Seller shall only be entitled to receive
payment of its permitted costs and expenses as provided under Section
3(h). Seller will not be entitled to any other compensation in
connection with the Remarketing of such Equipment and all Remarketing
Proceeds will be for the Buyer's account. Notwithstanding any sale to
a broker or dealer or any undertaking to remarket by Buyer, Seller
agrees that it will make available to Buyer and to any lessee,
purchaser or user of Equipment, at prevailing commercial rates, all
services, parts, attachments, maintenance and upgrades as it generally
makes available to owners or users of similar equipment.
(k) Overseas Transactions. If conversion of the Equipment to a
---------------------
different model or modification of the Equipment to allow its use in
any country other than the United States is required in connection
with any remarketing, Seller will undertake such conversion, with
Buyer's prior written approval, but the cost thereof will be paid by
Buyer. Buyer may require that some or all of such Off-Lease Equipment
be transported by Seller to destinations outside the United States. In
the event Buyer requests that Equipment be transported outside the
United States, then Buyer will be responsible for the costs of such
transportation.

-----------------------------------------------------
PROCEEDS DERIVED FROM THE REMARKETING OF EQUIPMENT COVERED BY THIS RESTATED
SUPPLEMENT net of any costs payable to Seller under Section 5(h), will be
applied in an inverse order of maturity against the unpaid Investment
Balance for the Equipment. Provided that Seller continues to Remarket
Equipment which is subject to this Restated Supplement; after the
Investment Balance for such Equipment has been reduced to zero, all
Remarketing Proceeds, and other proceeds received by Buyer from or on
account of such Equipment and/or related Contracts shall be payable as
follows and in the following order:
(a) To the payment of all unpaid sums due and payable to Buyer from
Seller; then
(b) 30% to Buyer and 70% to Seller.
8
