D.I.Y. HOME WAREHOUSE, INC.
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)


         1.       Basis of Presentation:

         In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of
June 29, 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and six
months ended June 29, 1996 and July 1, 1995. The condensed financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained
in the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K. The results of operations for
any interim period should not necessarily be considered indicative of the
results of operations for the full year.

         2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

         During the first quarter of 1996, the Company changed its method of
accounting for merchandise inventories from the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method
to the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. As required by generally accepted
accounting principles, the Company has retroactively adjusted prior years'
financial statements for this change. The new method of accounting for inventory
was adopted in recognition of industry practice and to provide for a better
matching of costs and revenues. The Internal Revenue Service granted permission
to the Company to change to the FIFO method of inventory valuation for income
tax purposes. The effect of the change in accounting method had no effect on net
income or earnings per share as previously reported for the three or six months
ended July 1, 1995.

         The Company will restate each of its 1995 quarters as well as its 1995
and 1994 annual results to provide retroactive application of the effect of the
accounting change. Had the Company not changed its method of inventory costing,
the impact on net income and earnings per share for the three and six months
ended June 29, 1996 would not have been material.

         3.       Earnings Per Share:

         Earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding for the periods. Earnings per share have not
been adjusted for the effect of stock options as the dilutive effect would be
less than three percent for each period.

         4.       Stock Options:

         The Company has a Long Term Incentive Plan (the Plan) which reserves
shares of the Company's authorized common stock for issuance. On May 22, 1996,
the Company's shareholders authorized an increase of the number of shares
authorized for issuance under the Plan from 850,000 shares to 1,350,000 shares.



                                       7

Options granted under the Plan vest over five years at the rate of 20% each year
and expire no more than ten years from the date of grant. A summary of activity
under the Plan for the six months ended June 29, 1996 is as follows:

At June 29, 1996, 174,800 options were exercisable and 529,000 shares were
available for future grant. The Company does not expect to adopt the recognition
provisions of recently issued SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. Disclosures required by new accounting standard will be included
in future financial statements pursuant to the effective date criteria.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

                    OPERATIONS - Three Months Ended June 29,
                1996 Compared to Three Months Ended July 1, 1995

         Net sales increased by $9.8 million, or 17%, to $68.2 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 1996, from $58.4 million in the second quarter of
fiscal 1995. This increase in net sales was attributable primarily to the full
period sales in 1996 for the five DIY locations which were opened in 1995. DIY
posted comparable store sale increases in each month of the quarter resulting in
a quarterly increase of 4%. However, sales were below expectations due to
adverse weather conditions in April, May and the first two weeks of June which
significantly delayed the spring lawn and garden shopping season. Further, the
Company's sales were adversely affected in April and May by the liquidation of a
competitor, Handy Andy, which had ten competing stores in the Company's markets.

         Gross profit increased by $594,000, or 4%, to $16.9 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 1996 from $16.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal
1995. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased to 24.8% in the
quarter ended June 29, 1996 compared to 27.9% in the comparable quarter of
fiscal 1995, due primarily to vendor discounts received in 1995 on the initial
inventory for new stores. No such discounts were realized in the second quarter
of fiscal 1996 as there were no new store openings in the period.

         Store operating, general and administrative expenses were $12.8 million
for the quarter ended June 29, 1996 compared to $11.6 million for the quarter
ended July 1, 1995. As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses decreased
to 18.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to 19.9% in the second
quarter of fiscal 1995 due to emphasis on cost-leveraging and improvements in
operating strategies.

         There were no store preopening costs in the second quarter of fiscal
1996, as there were no new stores under development during this period. Store
preopening costs were $638,802 in the second quarter of fiscal 1995 relative to
three stores opened during this period.

         Other expense, net, increased from $455,708 in the quarter ended July
1, 1995 to $623,668 in the quarter ended June 29, 1996 due to interest expense
incurred on higher levels of debt outstanding in the second quarter of 1996.

                     OPERATIONS - Six Months Ended June 29,
                 1996 Compared to Six Months Ended July 1, 1996

         Net sales for the six months ended June 29, 1996 were $107.3 million, a
21% increase over net sales of $88.7 million for the six months ended July 1,
1995. Comparable store sales increased 1% reflecting reduced sales in the first
quarter due to severe winter weather and adverse weather during April, May and
the first two weeks of June which significantly delayed the spring lawn and
garden shopping season. Further, the Company's sales were adversely affected in
April and May by the liquidation of a competitor, Handy Andy, which had ten
competing stores in the Company's markets.

         Gross profit for the six months ended June 29, 1996 was $27.7 million
compared to gross profit of $25.5 for the six months ended July 1, 1995. Gross
profit, as a percentage of net sales, decreased from 28.7% in the first six
months of fiscal 1995 to 25.8% in the comparable 1996 six month period. The
decline in gross margin is due primarily to vendor discounts received in 1995 on
the initial inventory orders for four new stores opened during the first half of
1995. No such discounts were realized in the first six months of fiscal 1996 as
there were no new store openings.

         Store operating expenses were 21.6% of net sales in the first half of
fiscal 1996 consistent with 21.5% of net sales in the first half of fiscal 1995,
as the sales softness in the spring of 1996 impacted the Company's ability to
leverage expenses.

         There were no store preopening costs for the six months ended June 29,
1996 as there were no new stores under development during this period. Store
preopening costs were $1,285,560 for the six months ended July 1, 1995 relative
to four stores opened during this period.

         Other expense, net, increased from $725,765 in the first six months of
1995 to $1,199,581 in the first six months of 1996 due to interest expense
incurred on higher levels of debt outstanding.

                         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         During the six months ended June 29, 1996, operating activities
provided net cash of $2.7 million. The primary source of cash from operations
was $3.5 million from net income plus depreciation and amortization. The primary
use of cash was $4.8 million to fund increased merchandise inventory levels at
existing stores for seasonal requirements, partially offset by an increase of
$2.9 million and $1.1 million in accounts payable and accrued expenses and
other, respectively. During the six months ended July 1, 1995, operating
activities provided net cash of $7.6 million. The primary source of cash from
operations was $3.6 million from net income plus depreciation and amortization.
The primary use of cash was $12.4 million to finance increases in merchandise
inventories resulting from new store openings in the first half of 1995 and
seasonal increases, offset by a $15.3 million increase in accounts payable and a
$1.5 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.



                                       10
<PAGE>   11

         Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $900,000 and
$12.4 million during the six months ended June 29, 1996 and July 1, 1995,
respectively, due to remodeling initiatives in the Company's older stores in the
first six months of 1996 and the acquisition of property and equipment related
to new store expansion in the first six months of fiscal 1995.

         Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June
29, 1996 totaled $2.1 million, as a result of repayments to the Company's
revolving credit facility of $1.8 million and principal payments of debt and
capital lease obligations of $300,000. Net cash provided by financing activities
in the six months ended July 1, 1995 totaled $5.1 million, due primarily to $2.5
million and $3.4 million from revolving credit borrowings and mortgage loans,
respectively.

         During the first quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company changed its method
of accounting for inventories from the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method to the
first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. As required by generally accepted accounting
principles, the Company has retroactively adjusted prior years' financial
statements for this change.

         The Company entered into capital lease obligations of $815,988 for
computer hardware and software and $644,439 for trucks in the second and first
quarters of 1996, respectively.

         Management believes cash on hand, cash from operations and cash
available through the Company's financing agreements will be sufficient to meet
short-term and long-term working capital requirements.

at that time without having to execute any additional documents. If you fail to
provide such certificate of acceptance or we are not notified by Supplier of the
installation of the Item, we shall have no obligation to purchase, lease or
finance the Items for which such document or notification are requested. You
shall reimburse us, on demand, any sums we may have paid the Supplier and any
expenses we may have incurred in connection with such Item or Items. When we
receive and approve the certificate of acceptance or Supplier's notification, we
will pay Supplier for the Item, unless otherwise notified by you. After we pay
the Supplier for the Items, you retain all other rights, obligations and
limitations under Supplier's purchase or license agreement in effect at the
time we accept this Agreement.

3. TERM AND PAYMENT. The monthly payment amount is specified in Section "H" on
the face of this Agreement ("Payment Amount"). The Transaction will begin on the
date the item is installed or accepted by you whichever comes first
("Transaction Commencement Date"). Rent shall commence on the Rent Commencement
Date. If Section "F" indicating if Interim Rent Appilies is marked "NO" on the
face of this Agreement, the Rent Commencement Date shall be the Transaction
Commencement Date, unless otherwise indicated in Section "L" on the face of this
Agreement. If section "F" is marked "YES" the Rent Commencement Date shall be
the first day of the first full payment period following the Transaction
Commencement Date and you shall pay Interim rent for the period of time between
the Transaction Commencement Date and the rent Commencement Date, unless
otherwise indicated in section "L" on the face of this Agreement. The Interim
rent shall be based on the Payment Amount prorated based on a 30-day month. The
Interim rent shall be billed and due as specified on the first invoice. The
Initial term of the Transaction ("Term") begins on the Rent Commencement Date
and continues for the number of months in Section "E" on the face of this
Agreement.

4. PAYMENT PROTECTION. The Payment Amount stated in Section "H" on the face of
this Agreement is fixed, as long as the Transaction Commencement Date occurs
within the month stated in Section "K" on the face of this Agreement and your
Supplier does not change any Single Unit Price indicated in Section "B" on the
face of this Agreement. If your Supplier changes any Single Unit Price, we will
adjust the Single Unit Price, the Price in Section "C" and the Payment Amount in
Section "H" on the face of this Agreement.

5. DELINQUENT PAYMENTS. If you do not make a payment by its due date, you must
pay us a late charge ("Late Charge") on demand. The Late Charge is an additional
2% of the Payment Amount due or the maximum allowed by law, whichever is less.
The Late Charge will accrue on a cumulative basis until the outstanding payments
and the Late Charges are paid in full.

6. MAXIMUM RATE. It is the parties' intent to enter into a lease. If, however, a
court of competent jurisdiction determines that a Transaction is subject to
usury laws, it is the parties' intention to comply with such laws. Accordingly,
it is agreed that in no event shall any Transaction require the payment or
permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by
applicable law. If any such excess interest is contracted for, charged or
received, then neither you nor any other party liable for payments under this
Agreement shall be obligated to pay such interest in excess of the maximum
amount of interest permitted by applicable law.

7. YOUR OBLIGATION TO PAY. Once effective, the Transaction cannot be canceled.
Your obligation to pay all amounts specified in this Agreement is absolute and
unconditional until fully satisfied and will not be affected by any right of
off-set or defense of any kind whatsoever. If an Item is unsatisfactory for any
reason, you will make any claims you may have solely against the Supplier under
the terms of the Supplier's purchase agreement. Once all payments due and
payable under this Agreement have been made, your obligations under this
Agreement will be satisfied.

8. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Any Security Deposit specified in "I" on the face of this
Agreement shall be held as security until you have satisfied all of your
obligations under this Agreement. We may, at our discretion, apply any Security
Deposit to cure any payment default by you under this Agreement.

9. DIRECT DEBIT AUTHORIZATION. You authorize us to initiate orders for the
payment of money ("Debit Entries") from your deposit account, the same account
on which the Security Deposit check is drawn or which is indicated on an
attached voided check, for all payments under this Agreement. You agree that
this account is and during the Term of the Lease will be maintained for business
purposes, and not for personal, family or household purposes. You agree to
notify us in writing at least sixty (60) days prior to any changes in account
information affecting the processing of Debit Entries. Both parties agree to be
bound by the National Automated Clearing House Association rules relating to
Corporate Trade Payment Entries in the administration of these Debit Entries.
Each Debit Entry amount will be the total amount from an invoice rendered at the
beginning of the calendar month plus any prior Late Charges. The Debit Entry
will be initiated on the last business day of the calendar month invoiced.

10. OWNERSHIP. All Leased Items and their associated Parts are our personal
property and you will not allow them to become a fixture or realty.

11. INSPECTION AND MARKING. Upon our request, you will permit us to inspect the
Items, their Parts, and their maintenance records. According to our
instructions, you must affix to any Leased Item any identifying labels, tags,
or plates we supply.

12. SELECTION AND USE. You are responsible for the selection of, use of, and
results obtained from, any Item. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT THE ITEM WILL BE
USED SOLELY FOR BUSINESS OR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES AND NOT FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY,
CONSUMER OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES.  

13. DELIVERY AND INSTALLATION. You are responsible for all of the following: a)
arranging for delivery and installation of the item; b) any delivery and
installation charges; c) inspecting the Item when delivered; d) notifying the
Supplier if any Item is not in good condition or does not correspond to
specifications; e) providing reasonable assistance to identify and correct any
defect or discrepancy; f) complying with all laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations relating to the possession, use, modification or maintenance of the
Item; and g) cooperating with us in the preparation and filing of any protective
UCC-1 financing statements evidencing our interest in the Leased Item.

14. TRANSFER OF WARRANTIES FOR LEASED ITEMS. For Leased Items, we will transfer
to you the benefit of any applicable warranties and patent and copyright
protection available under the Supplier's agreement. If you are not in default
under this Agreement, we warrant that neither we nor anyone acting or claiming
through us, by assignment or otherwise, will interfere with our quiet enjoyment
of the use of the Leased Items. EXCEPT FOR OUR WARRANTY OF QUIET ENJOYMENT, WE
MAKE NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT ANY MATTER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. AS TO LESSOR, YOU LEASE THE LEASED ITEM AND TAKE ANY PROGRAM
IN AN "AS IS, WHERE IS" CONDITION. IN NO EVENT WILL WE HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR,
NOR WILL YOU HAVE ANY REMEDY AGAINST US FOR, CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, ANY LOSS OF
PROFITS OR SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL LOSS.

15. MAINTENANCE. You will keep and operate each Item according to the
manufacturer's specifications or recommendations. You will keep the Items in
good repair and operating condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted. For any
Transactions that include maintenance coverage (indicated under the column
headed "Maint. Includ." on the face of this Agreement), we will arrange for
basic maintenance service on the Item. Coverage will begin at the end of the
manufacturer's warranty period and discontinue at the end of the initial Term.
The cost will be included in the Payment Amount. Coverage beyond the basic
maintenance will be your responsibility. All Parts installed in connection with
warranty and maintenance services will become our property.

16. LEASED ITEM MODIFICATIONS AND ALTERATIONS. You may alter or modify any
Leased Item only with prior written notification to us. Any Lessor-owned Parts
you remove shall remain our property and you are not permitted to make such
Parts available for sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition without our
prior written consent. Before you return a Leased Item to us, you must restore
the Leased Item to its original, unaltered or unmodified condition. At your
expense, you must remove any Alteration or Modification that we do not own, and
restore any original Parts that you have removed. If we consent to a disposition
of the removed Parts, the restoration must be with Parts we own or supply, or
those supplied by a source approved by us. All Alterations and Modifications not
removed when a Leased Item is returned to us shall become our property, without
charge, free of encumbrances. You shall have no further interest in such
Alteration or Modification or its proceeds.

17. ASSIGNMENT, SUBLEASE AND RELOCATION. You are not permitted to assign,
transfer, sublease or otherwise dispose of this Agreement, any Transaction or
any Item, in whole or in part. Any attempt to do so is void. You may relocate
any Item anywhere in the United States except Arkansas, with prior notice to us.
We may assign or grant a security interest(s) in this Agreement, any Transaction
or any item, in whole or in part. Any claims you have under this Agreement may
be brought only against us, and not against our assignees.

18. END OF LEASE TRANSACTION OPTIONS. To effect an end of lease option, you
must give us one (1) month prior written notice of your desired end of lease
option. If you do not notify us of your end of lease option, or if you elect to
conclude the Transaction and a Leased Item is not returned to us within twelve
(12) days following the end of the Term, the Transaction will automatically
extend as described in Section 19 below. If you are not in default under this
Agreement, you may choose any one of the following options:

RENEW THE TRANSACTION. You may renew a Transaction with an EOL Designation (as
indicated in Section "J" on the face of the Agreement) of "FM" one or more
times, up to six (6) years from the expiration of the initial Term. The Payment
Amount will be determined using the Fair Market Rental Value of the Leased Item
projected as of the current Transaction expiration date. You may renew a
Transaction with an EOL Designation of a prestated percentage for a renewal Term
of one (1) year. The Payment Amount will be one-half (1/2) of the EOL
Designation percentage multiplied by the Single Unit Price for the Leased Item.
The renewal will be paid annually and due in advance.

PURCHASE THE LEASED ITEM. You may purchase a Leased Item at the end of the Term.
For a Leased Item with an EOL Designation of "FM", the purchase price will be
determined using the projected Fair Market Sales Value as of the Transaction
expiration date. For a Leased Item with an EOL Designation of a prestated
percentage, the purchase price will be the prestated percentage multiplied by
the Single Unit Price for the Leased Item. For a Leased Item with an EOL
Designation of "$1", the purchase price will be one dollar ($1). You will pay
any applicable taxes, Payment Amounts due through the day before the date of
purchase, any other amounts due, and you will prepay all Financed Items listed
on the face of this Agreement. Upon our receipt of all amounts due under this
Agreement, we will transfer to you our right, title, and interest in and to such
Leased Item on an "As Is, Where Is" basis. We will warrant the title

free and clear only of all encumbrances created by us. Upon your written request
we will provide to you a bill of sale.

CONCLUDE THE TRANSACTION. You may end the Transaction on its expiration date.
You will have the Leased Items packed and available for pickup within two (2)
business days of such expiration date.

19. LEASE TRANSACTION EXTENSION. If you are not in default under this Agreement,
the Lease Transaction will automatically extend unless you notify us of your
choice of an end of lease option at least one (1) month prior to the end of the
Term or if you elect to conclude the Transaction and the Leased Item is not
returned to us within twelve (12) days following the end of the Term. The
extension will be under the same terms and conditions then in effect, except
that for Leased Items with an EOL Designation of "FM", the Payment Amount will
not be less than the Fair Market Rental Value. The extension will continue until
terminated by either party with one (1) month's prior written notice or six (6)
years after the expiration of the initial Term, whichever comes first.

20. RETURN OF A LEASED ITEM. Unless otherwise agreed, you will be responsible
for all of the following: a) arranging for the deinstallation and return of a
Leased Item, freight prepaid, to a location we specify in the continental United
States; b) the cost to qualify any Leased Item for the manufacturer's machine
maintenance service, if available, or the cost to return any Leased Item to good
repair and operating condition if the manufacturer does not offer machine
maintenance service; and c) the cost of any Part or accessory that is not
returned.

21. RISK OF DAMAGE, LOSS OR THEFT. We will pay for, and maintain insurance
covering verified theft of, or damage to, the Leased Items ("Casualty Loss").
The deductible will be $5,000 per incident per location. In the event of a
Casualty Loss, you will promptly notify us. If the Casualty Loss occurs before
the Transaction Commencement Date, the Transaction will terminate without
penalty. If the Casualty Loss occurs on of after the Transaction Commencement
Date and we determine that the Leased Item can be economically repaired, you
will have it repaired and we will reimburse you the reasonable cost of the
repair, less the deductible. If the Leased Item can not be economically
repaired, you will pay us the lesser of $5,000 or the Fair Market Sales Value of
the Leased Item immediately before the Casualty Loss occurred. The Transaction
will terminate effective as of the date of the Casualty Loss. At the expiration
of the Transaction Term, if you claim a loss or theft of a Leased Item but have
no police or fire department report to substantiate the loss or theft, we will
consider it an end of lease purchase. You will pay the full purchase price as of
the end of the Term. The insurance and $5,000 deductible will not apply.

22. TAXES AND ADDITIONAL CHARGES. You will pay, as additional Payment Amount,
all taxes and charges levied by any government body in connection with any
Transaction. If requested by us or required by a government body, you will make
these payments directly to the government body and upon request, you will
provide us with proof of payment. If you do not, we reserve the right to make
the payment, whereupon you will reimburse us for the tax or charge and all
related costs. You will not be responsible for taxes based on our net income on
any Item.

23. INDEMNITY. This Agreement is a net lease. You indemnify us for any action,
liability, claim, damage, and expense ("Claim") regarding any matter arising out
of the Transaction, including reasonable legal and collection fees and expenses.
You agree that, upon notice from us of the Claim, you shall assume full
responsibility for the defense the Claim. You shall not be responsible for any
Claim that results only from our sole negligence or willful misconduct. Your
payment shall be in an amount such that after we pay any required taxes,
including taxes on or measured by our net income, the balance will equal the
Claim. The obligations under this Section will survive the expiration or
termination of the Transaction.

24. LIABILITY INSURANCE. You will obtain and maintain liability insurance and
name us as additional insured and loss payee. We shall credit any insurance
benefits paid to us against your obligations under this Agreement. Upon our
request, you will provide us proof of insurance.

25. SUBSTITUTE PERFORMANCE. If you do not maintain liability insurance, pay
taxes and charges as required under this Agreement or discharge any encumbrance
created by you on any Item, we reserve the right to substitute performance. You
will pay us the cost thereof, as additional Payment Amount, together with all
fees and expenses we incur rendering substitute performance on your behalf.

26. AUTHORIZATION TO SIGN FINANCING STATEMENTS. You authorize us to act as your
agent and attorney-in-fact for the limited purpose of preparing, executing in
your name, and filing on your behalf, financing statements or other documents
covering the Transaction for the purpose of evidencing our interest in an Item.

27. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. You will be in default if: a) you do not pay any amount
due under this Agreement within seven (7) days after its due date; b) you
encumber, pledge, sell, assign, transfer, or dispose of this Agreement, any
Transaction or any Lease Item or its Parts; c) you fail to maintain insurance as
required under this Agreement; d) you or any Guarantor of your obligations under
this Agreement make any misrepresentation in a credit application you give us;
e) you make an assignment for the benefit of creditors; f) a trustee or receiver
is appointed for you or for a substantial part of your property, with or without
your consent; g) any petition or proceeding is filed by or against you under any
bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law; h) you or any Guarantor of your
obligations under this Agreement cease doing business; or i) you or any
Guarantor of your obligations under this Agreement breach any other provision
of this Agreement or of any guaranty of your obligations under this Agreement,
or any other agreement with us, and that breach continues for fifteen (15)
days after we send you written notice.

28. REMEDIES. If you are in default, we may do one or more of the following:
a) declare the Transaction to be in default and all amounts that are due or will
be due under this Agreement to be immediately due and payable; b) terminate the
Transaction; c) recover from you all amounts that are or will be due; d) attempt
to satisfy amounts due with any Security Deposit or any other collateral
pledged as security; e) repossess or render unusable any or all Items and retain
all payments made as partial compensation for their use and depreciation; f)
require you, at your expense, to assemble and ship any Item to a location we
specify; g) require you to pay an amount equal to then current Payment Amount
prorated based on a 30-day month, for each day any Item is not returned after
the twelfth (12th) day following our request for the Item's return; h) recover
from you all attorney's fees and legal expenses incurred in exercising any of
our rights under this Agreement. If we repossess a Modification, you are
responsible for restoring the remaining machine, at your expense, to good
working order. Upon repossession or return of an Item following a default, we
will dispose of it in a commercially reasonable manner. We will apply the net
proceeds of such a disposition to the unpaid amounts due under the Transaction,
after deducting the following from the proceeds of the disposition: a) in case
of a sale, the estimated Fair Market Sales Value of the Leased Item as of the
scheduled expiration of the Transaction; b) in case of a subsequent lease, the
rental amounts due for any period beyond the scheduled expiration of the
Transaction; and c) our expenses for the repossession and disposition,
including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses. You will pay us any
deficiency between the net proceeds and the unpaid amounts due. We will retain
any excess net proceeds. We may pursue any other remedy available at law or in
equity.

29. INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE PROVISIONS; NO WAIVER. If any provision of this
Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, all other provisions remain in
effect. If we fail to require full performance or if we waive any provision in
this Agreement, that shall not prevent us from requiring full performance of all
provisions in the future.

30. CHANGES. You authorize us to complete any identification information for any
listed Item on the face of this Agreement without further authorization from
you. You also authorize us to modify the Single Unit Price, Price and Payment
Amount on the face of this Agreement if your Supplier changes its price to you
for any Item. For any other changes to this Agreement to be valid, both parties
must mutually agree in writing.

31. NOTICES. All notices, consents, and approvals from us will be given by us or
