To: The "Holders" identified on Annex A hereto

Re: Amended and Restated Promissory Notes, dated December 31, 2013, between Essex Rental Corp. ("Essex") and the Holders identified on Annex A hereto, in the respective principal amounts identified on Annex A hereto (each a "Note"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed in each Note.

Gentlemen:

Essex Crane Rental Corp. and the other parties to the Loan Agreement contemplate amending and restating the Loan Agreement in accordance with the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement among such parties (the "Amendment"), a copy of which has been made available to the Holders.

Essex hereby requests that each Holder waive the mandatory prepayment required pursuant to Section 5 of each Note to the extent that the Amendment constitutes a Senior Debt Refinancing; provided, however, that the waiver requested hereby of each Holder shall only be effective upon receipt by such Holder of the prepayment amount specified on Annex A hereto opposite such Holder's name plus interest accrued thereon through the date of payment.

This waiver shall be limited to a Senior Debt Refinancing resulting from the Amendment, and this waiver shall not be deemed a waiver of the required prepayment provisions of Section 5 of the Notes with respect to any other Senior Debt Refinancing.

Very truly yours,

ESSEX RENTAL CORP.
