WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, each Stockholder is the record and beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of the number of shares of Seller Common Stock, Seller Stock Options and Seller Restricted Stock Units, in each case set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A (all such shares set forth on Schedule A next to the Stockholder’s name, together with any shares of Seller Common Stock that are hereafter issued to or otherwise directly or indirectly acquired or beneficially owned by any Stockholder prior to the occurrence of the Termination Date (as defined below) under this Agreement with respect to such Stockholder, including any shares of Seller Common Stock acquired or otherwise beneficially owned by such Stockholder upon the exercise of Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units after the date hereof (collectively “After-Acquired Shares”), being referred to herein, with respect to each Stockholder, as such Stockholder’s “Subject Shares”);

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution hereof, Parent, Purchaser and MicroFinancial Incorporated, a Massachusetts corporation (“Seller”), are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as it may be amended pursuant to the terms thereof, the “Merger Agreement”), which provides, among other things, for Purchaser to commence a tender offer to purchase all the outstanding shares of Seller Common Stock, followed by a merger of Purchaser with and into the Seller upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement; and

WHEREAS, as a condition to their willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, and as an inducement and in consideration for Parent and Purchaser to enter into the Merger Agreement, each Stockholder, severally and not jointly, and on such Stockholder’s own account with respect to the Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options and Seller Restricted Stock Units of such Stockholder, has agreed to enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth below and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, do hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

AGREEMENT TO TENDER AND VOTE

1.1. Agreement to Tender. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Stockholder agrees (severally and not jointly) to tender or cause to be tendered in the Offer all of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer, free and clear of all Encumbrances except for Permitted Encumbrances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after, the commencement (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) of the Offer (or in the case of any After-Acquired Shares directly or indirectly acquired subsequent to such fifth (5th) Business Day, no later than two (2) Business Days after such acquisition), each Stockholder shall deliver pursuant to the terms of the Offer (a) a letter of transmittal with respect to all of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares complying with the terms of the Offer, (b) a certificate representing all such Subject Shares that are certificated or, in the case of a book-entry share of any uncertificated Subject Shares, written instructions to such Stockholder’s broker, dealer or other nominee that such Subject Shares be tendered, including a reference to this Agreement, and requesting delivery of an “agent’s message” (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request), and (c) all other documents or instruments required to be delivered by other Seller stockholders pursuant to the terms of the Offer (it being understood that this sentence shall not apply to Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units that are not exercised during the term of this Agreement). Each Stockholder agrees that, once any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares are tendered, such Stockholder will not withdraw such Subject Shares from the Offer, unless and until this Agreement shall have terminated with respect to such Stockholder in accordance with Section 5.2.

1.2. Agreement to Vote. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees (severally and not jointly) that, until the Termination Date with respect to such Stockholder, at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Seller, however called, including any adjournment or postponement thereof, and in connection with any action proposed to be taken by written consent of the stockholders of the Seller, such Stockholder shall, in each case to the fullest extent that such Stockholder’s Subject Shares are entitled to vote thereon: (a) appear at each such meeting or otherwise cause all such Subject Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of determining a quorum; and (b) be present (in person or by proxy) and vote (or cause to be voted), or deliver (or cause to be delivered) a written consent with respect to, all of its Subject Shares (i) against any action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to (A) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Seller contained in the Merger Agreement, or of any Stockholder contained in this Agreement or (B) result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Article VIII or Annex I of the Merger Agreement to be satisfied; and (ii) against any Acquisition Proposal and against any other action, agreement or transaction involving the Seller that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, adversely affect or prevent the consummation of the Offer or the

Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including (w) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving the Seller (other than the Offer and the Merger); (x) a sale, lease, license or transfer of a material amount of assets (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Intellectual Property) of the Seller or any reorganization, recapitalization or liquidation of the Seller, in each case to the extent not expressly permitted by the Merger Agreement; (y) any change in the present capitalization of the Seller or any amendment or other change to the Seller’s Articles of Organization or Bylaws in each case not permitted by the Merger Agreement; or (z) other matter relating to, or in connection with, any of the foregoing matters described in this Section 1.2. For the avoidance of doubt, each Stockholder agrees that for so long as this Agreement is in effect, the obligations of such Stockholder contained in this Article I shall not be affected by any Adverse Recommendation Change or any acceptance by the Seller of any Acquisition Proposal. Each Stockholder shall retain at all times the right to vote the Subject Shares in such Stockholder’s sole discretion, and without any other limitation, on any matters other than those set forth in this Section 1.2 that are at any time or from time to time presented for consideration to the Seller’s stockholders generally, provided that such vote would not reasonably be expected to adversely affect, or prevent or delay the consummation of, the Offer or the Merger.

Each Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that until the Termination Date occurs with respect to such Stockholder:

Except as provided hereunder, from and after the date hereof and until the Termination Date has occurred with respect to such Stockholder, such Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) create or permit to exist any Encumbrance, other than Permitted Encumbrances, on any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units, (b) transfer, sell, assign, gift, hedge (except for personal financial and estate planning arrangements entered into in the ordinary course and not in frustration of this Agreement), pledge or otherwise dispose of (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by depositing, submitting or otherwise tendering any such Subject Shares into any tender or exchange offer), or enter into any derivative arrangement (collectively, “Transfer”), with respect to any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units, or any right or interest therein (or consent to any of the foregoing), (c) enter into any agreement with respect to any Transfer of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units or any interest therein, (d) grant or permit the grant of any proxy, power-of-attorney or other authorization or consent in or with respect to any such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units except any revocable proxy or power-of-attorney granted in favor of its investment manager on terms not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (e) deposit or permit the deposit of any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, or (f) take or permit any other action that would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of such Stockholder’s obligations hereunder or otherwise make any representation or warranty of such Stockholder herein untrue or incorrect. Any action taken in violation of the foregoing sentence shall be null and void ab initio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Stockholder may Transfer Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units (i) to any member of such Stockholder’s immediate family, (ii) to a trust for the sole benefit of such Stockholder or any member of such Stockholder’s immediate family or (iii) by will or under the laws of intestacy upon the death of such Stockholder; provided, that a transfer referred to in clause (i) through (iii) of this sentence shall be permitted only if all of the representations and warranties in this Agreement with respect

to such Stockholder would be true and correct upon such transfer and the transferee agrees in writing, in a manner reasonably acceptable to Parent, to accept such Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units subject to the terms of this Agreement and to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and to agree and acknowledge that such Person shall constitute a Stockholder for all purposes of this Agreement. If any involuntary Transfer of any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units in the Seller shall occur (including, but not limited to, a sale by such Stockholder’s trustee in any bankruptcy, or a sale to a purchaser at any creditor’s or court sale), the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units subject to all of the restrictions, obligations, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until valid termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Stockholder may make Transfers of its Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options or Seller Restricted Stock Units as Parent may agree in writing in its sole discretion.

4.2. No Exercise of Appraisal Rights. Such Stockholder forever waives and agrees not to exercise any appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights in respect of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares that may arise in connection with the Merger.

4.3. Documentation and Information. Such Stockholder shall not, and shall cause each of his, her or its Representatives or Affiliates not to, make any public announcement regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by applicable Law (provided that reasonable notice of any such disclosure will be provided to Parent). If either party reasonably believes that any statements are required by law or regulation, such party shall consult with the other party regarding the content of such statements. None of the Stockholders or any of their Representatives or Affiliates shall take any action or make any public statement, whether or not in writing, that disparages or denigrates the Merger Agreement, the parties thereto or any of the transactions contemplated thereby. Such Stockholder consents to and hereby authorizes Parent and Purchaser to publish and disclose in all documents and schedules filed with the SEC or other Governmental Authority or applicable securities exchange, to the extent Parent determines such filing is required by applicable Law or regulation, and any press release or other disclosure document that Parent or Purchaser reasonably determines to be necessary or advisable in connection with the Offer, the Merger and any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, such Stockholder’s identity and ownership of the Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options and Seller Restricted Stock Units, the existence of this Agreement and the nature of such Stockholder’s commitments and obligations under this Agreement, and such Stockholder acknowledges that Parent and Purchaser may, in Parent’s sole discretion, file this Agreement or a form hereof with the SEC or any other Governmental Authority or securities exchange. Such Stockholder agrees to promptly give Parent any information it may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents, and such Stockholder agrees to promptly notify Parent of any required corrections with respect to any written information supplied by such Stockholder specifically for use in any such disclosure

document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.

4.4. Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or the like of the capital stock of the Seller affecting the Subject Shares, Seller Stock Options and Seller Restricted Stock Units, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the resulting securities. Each Stockholder agrees to promptly notify Parent of the number of any new Subject Shares acquired by such Stockholder after the date hereof; any such Subject Shares shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement as though owned by such Stockholder on the date hereof.

4.5. Waiver of Certain Actions. Each Stockholder hereby agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against Parent, Purchaser, the Seller or any of their respective successors (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin or delay the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay the consummation of the Offer or the Closing) or (b) alleging a breach of any duty of the Seller Board in connection with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby.

4.6. No Solicitation. Subject to Section 5.14, each Stockholder shall not, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any inquiries regarding, or the submission or public announcement of any proposal or offer that constitutes any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) furnish to any Person (other than Parent) any information with respect to or in connection with, or take any other action intended to facilitate the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) resolve or agree to do any of the foregoing. Each Stockholder shall and shall direct and use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, (x) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any solicitation, encouragement, discussion or negotiation with any Person or groups that may be ongoing with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal as of the date hereof, (y) request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal previously furnished to any Person and (z) not terminate, waive, amend, release or modify any provision of any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it or any of his, her or its Representatives is a party with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, and shall enforce the provisions of any such agreement. Each Stockholder shall advise Parent promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours) of (A) any Acquisition Proposal received by such Stockholder or his, her or its Representatives and (B) any inquiry or request for discussion or negotiation regarding an Acquisition Proposal received by such Stockholder or his, her or its Representatives, which notice, in each case, shall specify the party making such Acquisition Proposal or indication or inquiry and the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal or indication or inquiry (including, if applicable, copies of all written requests, proposals, offers or proposed

agreements). Each Stockholder shall keep Parent informed on a reasonably current basis (and in any event no later than 24 hours after any material change) of the status and terms (including any material changes to the terms thereof) of any such Acquisition Proposal received by such Stockholder or his, her or its Representatives or indication or inquiry (including, if applicable, any revised copies of any written requests, proposals, offers or proposed agreements) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations. Any Stockholder’s or his, her or its Representatives’ receipt of any Acquisition Proposal shall not relieve the Stockholder from any of his obligations hereunder.

4.7. No Groups. Each Stockholder agrees that, without the prior written consent of Parent, it shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates not to, become a member of a “group” (as that term is used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) with respect to any Seller Common Stock or other voting securities of the Seller for the purpose of opposing or competing with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

4.8. No Registration of Transfers. Each Stockholder, except as otherwise permitted hereby, agrees that he, she or it shall not request that the Seller or its transfer agent register the transfer (book-entry or otherwise) of any certificate or uncertificated interest representing any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares.

4.9. Stop Transfer. Each Stockholder (a) shall and does authorize Parent or its counsel to, notify the Seller’s transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Subject Shares (and that this Agreement places limits on the voting and transfer of such shares) to the extent provided herein and (b) consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions by the Seller of any transfer of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares. The parties hereto agree that such stop transfer order shall be removed and shall be of no further force and effect upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.2.
