Embedded Event Manager is a bit picky about the location of the EEM Tcl policies: although they are loaded into RAM when registered, they have to reside on the router itself. If you have a low-end router with no flash disk (I'm using 2800-series routers) or USB flash and you don't want to mess with your flash: device (to prevent accidental erasure), the only other place left is NVRAM:. Surprisingly, it works.

You can find a variety of sample EEM scripts on Cisco forums. Quite a few of them are really interesting, illustrating various aspects of using TCL to program EEM (as well as what can be done with EEM to make your life simpler).
