### Press Release ########################### Yesterday was an anniversary
April 17, 2000---the first Leasing News story is archived. This e-mail series started many years ago to leasing industry colleagues of Kit Menkin, managing partner of American Leasing. He founded the company in 1971 in what was to become the heart Later, we grew into a website to read in html instead of text, and when completed, the idea of having an archive section. Prior to this date on April 17, the emails were never saved, but deleted. The original advisory board wanted the name changed to Kit Menkin’s Leasing News. It was that way for a short time, although I always disliked it, as I viewed this as for everyone, not just me. The idea Classified ads and other features were added to the website. Originally all the ads were free, but when we had over 150 brokers looking for commissioned salesmen, we decided instead of paid subscribers, ask for advertising. Wouldn’t you know it, not one of the 150 brokers took out an ad. We did get one hundred paid subscribers, but after a year ended it (subscribers got the html edition and the non-subscribers, text.) This is not a money making proposition, more a non-profit approach. What has made us successful is the fact our readers supply much of the “inside news”. Originally an afternoon edition, it was changed to early morning (actually being sent out around 1:30am, PDT), after most newspapers have sent to the streets their early morning edition, too. This gives a final review of major newspapers throughout the United States. From being a West Coast planned edition, it now times the news for the East Coast as well. We also have a following in other countries, although that was never our intention.

-------------------------------------------------------------- KeyCorp Net $289M compared to 2006 1st Q $146M McDonald Investments branch network sale completed
KeyCorp, Cleveland, Ohio continued its growth with net income totaling $350 million, or $0.87 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2007, compared to net income of $289 million, or $0.70 per share, for the first quarter of 2006 and $146 million, or $0.36 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2006. "The first quarter sales of the McDonald Investments branch network and the Champion Mortgage loan origination platform improve our risk profile and focus on the company's core relationship businesses," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Henry L. Meyer III. "During the quarter, we also repositioned the securities portfolio to respond to changing market conditions. We expect this change to enhance the company's future performance, particularly in the event of a decline in interest rates.
"The current rate environment has continued to pressure Key's net interest margin and, although asset quality has declined slightly from a year ago, it is still very good compared to historical measures. We also are pleased to have resolved the automobile residual value insurance litigation during the first quarter."
Here is what appears to be Key Finance Group:
Other Highlights: Excluding the $171 million gain associated with the sale of the McDonald Investments branch network, the $49 million loss recorded in connection with the repositioning of the securities portfolio and the $26 million gain from the settlement of the automobile residual value insurance litigation, Key's noninterest income was $506 million for the first quarter of 2007, compared to $481 million for the year-ago quarter. A $32 million improvement in principal investing results accounted for the increase. Income from investment banking and capital markets activities was down due to a $25 million gain recorded in the first quarter of 2006 from the initial public offering completed by the New York Stock Exchange. Key's capital ratios continued to exceed all "well-capitalized" regulatory benchmarks at March 31, 2007. Key's tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 6.97% at quarter end, compared to 7.01% at December 31, 2006, and 6.71% at March 31, 2006. Key repurchased 8.0 million of its common shares and reissued 3.3 million shares under employee benefit and dividend reinvestment plans during the first quarter of 2007. At March 31, 2007, Key had 22.0 million common shares remaining for repurchase under the current authorization. Cleveland-based KeyCorp is one of the nation's largest bank-based financial services companies, with assets of approximately $93 billion. Key companies provide investment management, retail and commercial banking, consumer finance, and investment banking products and services to individuals and companies throughout the United States and, for certain businesses, internationally.

-------------------------------------------------------------- (Main Street now originates $10 million of leases per month
ELFA eNews Daily (04/17/07) ; Fajt, Marissa Texas-based Main Street Bank has seen explosive growth in assets by focusing heavily on leasing equipment to both local and national small businesses, including health clubs, medical clinics, and restaurants. Main Street had been struggling until late 2004, with flat asset growth and significant problems with credit quality. To turn the bank's performance around, a group of its investors, many of whom had previously worked at a leasing company, decided to make the bank stand out by putting most of its business into leasing. Main Street now originates $10 million of leases per month and has much better access to capital. CEO Tom Depping, formerly of leasing company First Sierra Financial Inc., says that leasing from a banking platform provides for more consistent funding, allowing the bank to both charge and pay steadier rates. In addition to the growth from leasing, Main Street has added $16 million in core deposits and is considering opening another traditional branch and possibly acquiring a smaller bank. Information from: http://www.fdic.gov/ find bank feature: Main Street National Bank, Kingswood, Texas

--------------------------------------------------------------- (Northern Leasing Systems another NorVergence?) Missouri AG says Firm that leases credit card machines defrauded small businesses in Missouri of thousands of dollars
St. Louis, Mo.— Attorney General Jay Nixon on Monday took legal action against a New York City company Nixon says defrauded dozens of Missouri small businesses that leased its credit card swiping machines. The allegations in Nixon’s lawsuit against Northern Leasing Systems Inc. include charges that the company altered contracts signed by Missouri businesses in order to obligate them to Nixon filed suit on Monday in St. Louis City Circuit Court, asking the court to stop the fraud and order the company to pay restitution to the businesses and penalties to the state of Missouri. The Attorney General’s Office has received 23 complaints about Northern Leasing’s practice, but Nixon says there may be more victims that have not filed complaints.
“These businesses do a smaller volume in credit and debit card sales, and leasing from this New York company at first appeared to be a viable option,” Nixon says. “Through a web of misrepresentation and fraud, however, Northern Leasing entangled them in contracts where the businesses were obliged to pay much more than the machines were worth. We will continue to be aggressive in stopping schemes that defraud Missouri’s small businesses.” Northern Leasing advertises itself as a leasing company specializing in financing credit card swiping machines and other business equipment. Nixon alleges the company’s sales staff duped small businesses into entering into four-year leases to pay for the machines, which are typically worth $200-$300, resulting in total payments of $2,500-$4,000. Many of the small-business owners were misled by third-party vendors into signing contracts they thought would provide them with a wide range of services at $59.99 a month for four months; they later found out that amount only financed the swiping machine itself. To make matters worse, Nixon said, several of the businesses later received copies of their leases with the terms changed from four months to 48 months, and the terms of the leases would not allow the consumers to cancel them during that period. Northern Leasing also included provisions that any disputes under the contracts would be resolved in court in New York City, where Northern Leasing regularly files its collection suits – making it very difficult and costly for Missouri consumers to challenge the leasing contracts. Missouri consumers who disputed the contracts and didn’t pay the company complained they have been subject to harassing collection phone calls from Northern Leasing both at work and at home, even if those consumers have been defrauded or received nothing of value for their payments. Nixon is asking the court to issue a temporary restraining order and preliminary and permanent injunctions preventing Northern Leasing from continuing to advertise or sell any business equipment, including credit card swiping machines, within the state of Missouri. The lawsuit also calls for the defendants to pay restitution to all consumers or small businesses who they defrauded, as well as appropriate penalties to the state. http://www.northernleasing.com/ ### Press Release ########################### A True Test of the new Code of Ethics for ELFA by Christopher Menkin
Companies that renew their membership with the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association (ELFA) must agree “on line” to the new Code of Ethics. The indictment against Northern Leasing Systems of While a company is not guilty until proven in a court of law, the outcome of charges against Northern Leasing Systems of New York may become a test of the new standards of the Code of Fair Business Practice that ELFA members must uphold. Leasing News is attempting to obtain an interview with the parties involved, plus obtain copies of the lease contracts used in the indictment (eventually they will become public property as part of the court case.) These may be “Evergreen Leases,” legal in every state but Illinois and Massachusetts. These leases may be similar to Leasecomm transactions that the Federal Trade Commission found being illegally enforced and fined the company. Northern Leasing Systems is one of the major players, purchasing their competition to control the marketplace. The Federal Trade Commission is not making a comment at this time. Golden Eagle Leasing Inc., a Ridgefield company that leases credit card transaction equipment, was purchased in October, 2003, by Northern Leasing Systems Inc., for $30 million, according to statements released by both companies. Founded in 1991, Northern Leasing Systems, Inc. (NLS) is a New York-based micro-ticket lease finance company. Northern Leasing Systems is focused on providing micro-ticket leasing through a system of nation-wide equipment vendors for defined niche markets not served by traditional lessors. Credit card authorized equipment is the primary market served by Northern Leasing Systems. The company was a wholly owned subsidiary of Hypercom Corp., a Phoenix-based producer of electronic transaction terminals. Hypercom bought Golden Eagle in December 1999 for an initial payment of $18.5 million in cash, $4 million in stock and some other objective based payments. The defunct Linc Capital originally provided a $40 million lease purchase facility for leases originated by Northern, as arranged by Linc Capital CEO Martin E. Zimmerman, and Jay Cohen, president and chief executive officer of Northern Leasing. Today, many of the lines of credit are allegedly with CIT Financial and others, according to users who are sending in monthly payments. Leasing News is attempting to verify this information. Complaints about the process of Northern Leasing Systems have appeared on the internet the last few years, such as: http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/ripoff56992.htm Here are the two main principals: Jay Cohen, John W. Snead, This indictment will certainly be a true test of the new Equipment Leasing and Finance Association Code of Fair Business Practice as Northern Leasing System is a member. “Standard 2: Members shall conduct their activities in the spirit of full disclosure. All relevant information as to the terms and conditions of a transaction, relationship or service that may affect either (i) the customer's decision to consummate the transaction or, (ii) the customer's ongoing obligations under the contract, shall be disclosed clearly to the customer prior to closing. Notice, return and end of term provisions of a lease shall be reasonable in light of the structure of the transaction, the type and use of equipment leased and the secondary market therefore. The terms and conditions of use and application of deposits and other funds received from a customer shall be fair, reasonable and disclosed to the customer in writing.” “Article VII(2) of the Bylaws provides that a Member may be censured, suspended or expelled from the Association for violating the Code of Fair Business Practices of the Association. Accordingly, the disciplinary actions that the Association may take in the event of a violation of the Code include: --------------------------------------------------------------
The story of NorVergence as per Wikipedia This is a very interesting viewpoint. The leasing companies “master lease” or “due diligence” is not discussed, nor many of the issues brought to court. What is covered perhaps applies to other situations, such as the alleged Northern Leasing System charges. It is the method of selling and presenting the product by the vendor sales that is the culprit. http://leasingnews.org/PDF/Norvergence-Wikipedia.PDF (Note: this story appeared in Monday’s edition, but without a headline, so repeated here for those who may have missed it. editor)

Portland, Ore. – ColumbiaSoft, a document management software solutions provider, will disclose its Enterprise Document Management (EDM) strategy with enhanced technology in Document Locator® at the AIIM Conference, April 17 through19. The AIIM Conference & Expo is North America’s largest enterprise content and information management event, showcasing the technologies that help IT and business executives create business value from their information assets. It’s located at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, Boston, MA Until now, smaller and mid-sized organizations and departments have had few options for meeting their full document management needs. To date, those needing broad capabilities have been restricted to implementing expensive legacy enterprise content management (ECM) systems or using a patchwork of smaller tools. Both approaches require significant implementation time and expense, and both have historically met with poor user acceptance. Carl Azar, vice president of marketing and product development at ColumbiaSoft said: “To maximize customer results, EDM must be highly intuitive and able to go beyond basic image capture, document versioning, and search in order to deliver capabilities such as records management that ensures compliance, and automated document workflow to increase business efficiency.” Drivers of Enterprise Document Management Regulatory requirements like the recent changes in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedures continue to impact firms of all sizes at the same time that business efficiency has become critical to competing and surviving. Legacy ECM vendors are failing to deliver effective solutions when they are needed. According to Jupiter Research, 27% of ECM users are highly disappointed in their ECM implementations, while DocuLabs conservatively estimates a 50% failure rate for ECM technologies in large organizations. The emerging EDM market addresses these two conflicting issues: the requirement to comply with regulations, while also enhancing efficiency, and the high cost of legacy ECM systems. The need to solve these two issues has created a new class of document management software able to power solutions that are comprehensive and intuitive, require little IT support, and are cost-effective for organizations of all sizes. These solutions significantly change the landscape, focus, and possibilities for deployment of document and records management systems, allowing companies to comply with regulations and simultaneously enhance operational efficiency. ColumbiaSoft’s EDM solution, Document Locator, is deeply embedded in Microsoft architecture to leverage users’ existing experience by functioning in the desktop or Web browser where every user works. This approach makes document management powerfully simple and intuitive. Document Locator replaces unmanaged shared file servers with a secure repository, automates versioning of documents, scans paper into searchable digital images, captures emails and attachments, instantly finds documents, manages formal business records, and automates document workflows. About ColumbiaSoft Corporation A private Portland, Ore.-based company, ColumbiaSoft is the creator of Document Locator® – a next-generation Enterprise Document Management solution.
