its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Shares"), for an aggregate

Placement Agent has introduced to the Company, pursuant to registration under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and pursuant to registration or
exemptions from registration under state securities laws;
WHEREAS, the offering of the Shares will terminate on April , 1999 (the

Company on or before the Closing Date, no Shares will be sold and all payments

earned thereon in accordance herewith.
2. Deposit of Escrowed Property. The Placement Agent, on behalf of the
subscribers for the Shares, shall from time to time, but in no event later
than 12:00 noon on the date following the date of receipt by the Placement
Agent, cause to be wired to or deposited with, or, cause the subscribers
for the Shares to wire or deposit with, the Escrow Agent funds or checks of
the subscribers delivered in payment for Shares (the "Escrowed Property").
Any checks delivered to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms hereof shall
be made payable to or endorsed to the order of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow
Agent upon receipt of such checks shall present such checks for payment to
the drawee-bank under such checks. Any checks not honored by the drawee-

to the Placement Agent, on behalf of such subscriber, in the same manner
notices are delivered pursuant to Section 6. Upon receipt of funds or
checks from the Placement Agent, the Escrow Agent shall credit such funds
and the amount of such checks to a non-interest-bearing account (the
"Escrow Account") held by the Escrow Agent. If following the credit of the
amount of any check to the Escrow Account such check is dishonored, the
Escrow Agent, if such dishonored check amount shall have been invested
pursuant to Section 3, shall liquidate to the extent of such dishonored
check amount such investments and debit the Escrow Account for the amount
of such dishonored check plus, if any, the amount of interest and other
income earned with respect to any investment of such dishonored check
amount.

business day ("business day" defined for purposes of this Escrow Agreement
as any day which is not a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banks or
trust companies in the City and State of New York are authorized or
obligated by law, regulation or executive order to remain closed)
succeeding (unless such deposit is made in
federal or other immediately available or "same day" funds, in which case,
on the business day next succeeding) the credit of any subscription
proceeds to the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2 and until release of
such proceeds in accordance with the terms hereof, shall deposit such
proceeds in a Citibank Money Market Deposit Account, pursuant to Rule 15c2-
4 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in accordance with the terms
set forth on Exhibit A hereto (made a part of this Escrow Agreement as if
herein set forth). The Escrow Agent shall in no event be liable for any
loss resulting from any change in interest rates applicable to proceeds
invested pursuant to this Section. Interest on proceeds invested pursuant
to this section shall accrue from the date of investment of such proceeds
until the termination of such investment pursuant to the terms hereof and
shall be paid as set forth in Section 5.

who is not a United States citizen or resident, a W-8 form) for each listed
subscriber. The Escrow Agent shall notify the Placement Agent and the
Company of any discrepancy between the subscription amounts set forth on
any list delivered pursuant to this Section 4 and the subscription amounts
received by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent is authorized to revise such
list to reflect the actual subscription amounts received and the release of

(c) If at any time and from time to time prior to the release of any
subscriber's total subscription amount pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section 5 from escrow, the Company shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a
notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto (a "Subscription
Termination Notice"), to the effect that any or all of the subscriptions of

7. Concerning the Escrow Agent. To induce the Escrow Agent to act hereunder,
it is further agreed by the Company and Placement Agent that:
(a) The Escrow Agent shall not be under any duty to give the Escrowed
Property held by it hereunder any greater degree of care than it gives its
own similar property and shall not be required to invest any funds held
hereunder except as directed in this Escrow Agreement. Uninvested funds
held hereunder shall not earn or accrue interest.
(b) This Escrow Agreement expressly sets forth all the duties of the
Escrow Agent with respect to any and all matters pertinent hereto. No
implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Escrow Agreement
against the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by the
provisions of any agreement among the other parties hereto except this
Escrow Agreement.
(c) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable, except for its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct, and, except with respect to claims based
upon such gross negligence or willful misconduct that are successfully
asserted against the Escrow Agent, and the other parties hereto shall
jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent (and any
successor Escrow Agent) from and against any and all losses, liabilities,
claims, actions, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees
and disbursements, arising out of and in connection with this Escrow
Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Escrow Agent shall in no
event be liable in connection with its investment or reinvestment of any
cash held by it hereunder in good faith, in accordance with the terms
hereof, including without limitation any liability for any delays (not
resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct) in the investment or
reinvestment of the Escrowed Property, or any loss of interest incident to
any such delays.
4
(d) The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any order, judgment,
certification, demand, notice, instrument or other writing delivered to it
hereunder without being required to determine the authenticity or the
correctness of any fact stated therein or the propriety or validity of the
service thereof. The Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any instrument
or signature believed by it in good faith to be genuine and may assume, if
in good faith, that any person purporting to give notice or receipt or
advice or make any statement or execute any document in connection with the
provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so.
(e) The Escrow Agent may act pursuant to the advice of counsel with
respect to any matter relating to this Escrow Agreement and shall not be
liable for any action taken or omitted in good faith and in accordance with
such advice.
(f) The Escrow Agent does not have any interest in the Escrowed Property
deposited hereunder but is serving as escrow holder only. Any payments of
income from the Escrow Account shall be subject to withholding regulations
then in force with respect to United States taxes. The parties hereto will
provide the Escrow Agent with appropriate W-9 forms for tax I.D., number
certification, or non-resident alien certifications.
This paragraph (f) and paragraph (c) of this Section 7 shall survive
notwithstanding any termination of this Escrow Agreement or the resignation
of the Escrow Agent.
(g) The Escrow Agent makes no representation as to the validity, value,
genuineness or the collectibility of any security or other document or
instrument held by or delivered to it.
(h) The Escrow Agent shall not be called upon to advise any party as to
the wisdom of selling or retaining or taking or refraining from any action
with respect to any securities or other property deposited hereunder.
(i) The Escrow Agent (and any successor escrow agent) at any time may be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder by the delivery to it
of notice of termination signed by both the Company and the Placement Agent
or at any time may resign by giving written notice to such effect to the
Company and the Placement Agent. Upon any such termination or resignation,
the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrowed Property to any successor
escrow agent jointly designated by the other parties hereto in writing, or
to any court of competent jurisdiction if no such successor escrow agent is
agreed upon, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall be discharged of and from any
and all further obligations arising in connection with this Escrow
Agreement. The termination or resignation of the Escrow Agent shall take
effect on the earlier of (i) the appointment of a successor (including a
court of competent jurisdiction) or (ii) the day that is 30 days after the
date of delivery: (A) to the Escrow Agent of the other parties' notice of
termination or (B) to the other parties hereto of the Escrow Agent's
written notice of resignation. If at that time the Escrow Agent has not
received a designation of a successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent's sole
responsibility after that time shall be to keep the Escrowed Property safe
until receipt of a designation of successor escrow agent or a joint written
disposition instruction by the other parties hereto or any enforceable
order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(j) The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the contents of any
writing of any third party contemplated herein as a means to resolve
disputes and may rely without any liability upon the contents thereof.
(k) In the event of any disagreement among or between the other parties
hereto and/or the subscribers of the Shares resulting in adverse claims or
demands being made in connection with the Escrowed Property, or in the
event that the Escrow Agent in good faith is in doubt as to what action it
should take hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to retain the
Escrowed Property until the Escrow Agent shall have received (i) a final
and non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction directing
delivery of the Escrowed Property or (ii) a written agreement executed by
the
5
other parties hereto and consented to by the subscribers directing delivery
of the Escrowed Property, in which event the Escrow Agent shall disburse
the Escrowed Property in accordance with such order or agreement. Any court
order referred to in (i) above shall be accompanied by a legal opinion by
counsel for the presenting party satisfactory to the Escrow Agent to the
effect that said court order is final and non-appealable. The Escrow Agent
shall act on such court order and legal opinion without further question.
(l) As consideration for its agreement to act as Escrow Agent as herein
described, the Company agrees to pay the Escrow Agent fees determined in
accordance with the terms set forth on Exhibit F hereto (made a part of
this Escrow Agreement as if herein set forth). In addition, the Company
agrees to reimburse the Escrow Agent for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Escrow Agent in
performance of its duties hereunder (including reasonable fees, expenses
and disbursements of its counsel).
(m) The other parties hereto irrevocably (i) submit to the jurisdiction
of any New York State or federal court sitting in New York City in any
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Escrow Agreement,
(ii) agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall
be heard and determined in such New York State or federal court and (iii)
waive, to the fullest extent possible, the defense of an inconvenient
forum. The other parties hereby consent to and grant any such court
jurisdiction over the persons of such parties and over the subject matter
of any such dispute and agree that delivery or mailing of process or other
papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner
provided hereinabove, or in such other manner as may be permitted by law,
shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.
(n) No printed or other matter in any language (including, without
limitation, the Registration Statement, notices, reports and promotional
material) which mentions the Escrow Agent's name or the rights, powers, or
duties of the Escrow Agent shall be issued by the other parties hereto or
on such parties' behalf unless the Escrow Agent shall first have given its
specific written consent thereto. The Escrow Agent hereby consents to the
use of its name and the reference to the escrow arrangement in the
Registration Statement.
8. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Escrow Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns,
heirs, administrators and representatives, and the subscribers of the Shares
and shall not be enforceable by or inure to the benefit of any other third
party except as provided in paragraph (i) of Section 7 with respect to the
termination of, or resignation by, the Escrow Agent. No party may assign any of
its rights or obligations under this Escrow Agreement without the written
consent of the other parties.
(b) This Escrow Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed
by the internal law of the State of New York (without reference to its rules as
to conflicts of law).

the parties hereto and consented to by the subscribers of the Shares adversely
affected by such modifications. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless
in a writing signed by the party to be charged.

Section 5 of all amounts held in the Escrow Account.

such separate counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument;
provided that, although executed in
6
