THIS MEMBERSHIP INTEREST TRANSFER AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of this 31st day of August, 2009, by and between LEAF Equipment Finance Fund 4, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“LEAF 4”), and LEAF Equipment Leasing Income Fund III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“LEAF III”).

BACKGROUND

A.     LEAF III owns 51% of the membership interests in LEAF Funding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“LLC”).

B.     LEAF 4 owns 49% of the membership interests in LLC.

C.     LEAF III desires to sell, and LEAF 4 desires to purchase, membership interests of LLC in an amount equal to Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars of Net Equity (as defined below) in LLC pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. The foregoing membership interests to be transferred from LEAF III to LEAF 4 are sometimes hereinafter called the “Transferred Interests.”

AGREEMENT

1.     Sale and Purchase of Transferred Interests. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, LEAF III hereby irrevocably sells, assigns, transfers and delivers to LEAF 4, and LEAF 4 hereby purchases, all of LEAF III’s right, title and interest in and to the Transferred Interests, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, pledges, options, claims and rights of others of any nature whatsoever. As of the date hereof, LEAF III and LEAF 4 estimate that the Transferred Interests equal 46%. As promptly as practicable, but no later than thirty (30) days from the date hereof, LEAF III shall deliver to LEAF 4 sufficient financial information to determine the exact amount of the Transferred Interests and thereafter Exhibit A to LLC’s limited liability company agreement shall be modified accordingly.

2.     Consideration. The purchase price of the Transferred Interests shall be EIGHT MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($8,500,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be divided by the Net Equity of LLC to determined the exact amount of the Transferred Interests. The term “Net Equity” shall mean the total assets of LLC less the total liabilities of LLC (excluding derivative liabilities at fair value) as of the date hereof.


3.     Costs. LEAF 4 and LEAF III shall be solely responsible for their own respective costs and expenses (including without limitation legal and accounting fees) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.     Further Assurance. At any time and from time to time after the date hereof, LEAF 4 or LEAF III shall promptly execute and deliver all such further agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, or perform such further actions, as may be requested, in order to fully consummate the transactions contemplated hereby regarding the sale of the Transferred Interests and carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.
