AGREEMENT

1. SERVICES TO THE CORPORATION. Agent will serve, at the will of the Corporation
or under separate contract, if any such contract exists, as a director, officer,
or employee of the Corporation or as a director, officer or other fiduciary of
an affiliate of the Corporation faithfully and to the best of Agent's ability so
long as Agent is duly elected and qualified in accordance with the provisions of
the Bylaws or other applicable charter documents of the Corporation or such
affiliate; provided, however, that Agent may at any time and for any reason
resign from such position (subject to any contractual obligation that Agent may
have assumed apart from this Agreement) and that the Corporation or any
affiliate shall have no obligation under this Agreement to continue Agent in any
such position.

2. INDEMNITY OF AGENT. The Corporation hereby agrees to hold harmless and
indemnify Agent at all times during the term of such Agent's service as a
director, officer, or employee of the Corporation or as a director, officer or
other fiduciary of an affiliate of the Corporation to the fullest extent
authorized or permitted by the provisions of the Bylaws and the Code, as the
same may be amended from time to time (but, only to the extent that such
amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than
the Bylaws or the Code permitted prior to adoption of such amendment). These
obligations and the other obligations of the Corporation in this Agreement apply
regardless of whether the conduct giving rise to the obligations occurred before
or occur after the date this Agreement is executed.

3. CONTINUATION OF INDEMNITY. All agreements and obligations of the Corporation
contained herein shall continue during the period Agent is a director, officer,
employee or other agent of the Corporation (or is or was serving at the request
of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or other agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other
enterprise) and shall continue thereafter so long as Agent shall be subject to
any possible claim or threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, arbitrational, administrative or
investigative, by reason of the fact that Agent was serving as a director,
officer, or employee of the Corporation.

4. PARTIAL INDEMNIFICATION. Agent shall be entitled under this Agreement to
indemnification by the Corporation for a portion of the expenses (including
attorneys' fees), witness fees, damages, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement and any other amounts that Agent becomes legally obligated to pay in
connection with any action, suit or proceeding even if not entitled hereunder to
indemnification for the total amount thereof, and the Corporation shall
indemnify Agent

5. NOTIFICATION AND DEFENSE OF CLAIM. Not later than thirty (30) days after
receipt by Agent of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or
proceeding, Agent will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the
Corporation under this Agreement, notify the Corporation of the commencement
thereof; but the omission so to notify the Corporation will not relieve it from
any liability which it may have to Agent otherwise than under this Agreement.
With respect to any such action, suit or proceeding as to which Agent notifies
the Corporation of the commencement thereof:

(a) the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense;

(b) except as otherwise provided below, the Corporation may, at its option and
jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified and electing to
assume such defense, assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to Agent. After notice from the Corporation to Agent of its
election to assume the defense thereof, the Corporation will not be liable to
Agent under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred
by Agent in connection with the defense thereof except for reasonable costs of
investigation or otherwise as provided below. Agent shall have the right to
employ separate counsel in such action, suit or proceeding but the fees and
expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its
assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Agent; provided,
however, that the fees and expenses of Agent's separate counsel shall be borne
by the Corporation if (i) the employment of counsel by Agent has been authorized
by the Corporation, (ii) Agent reasonably shall have concluded that there may be
a conflict of interest between the Corporation and Agent in the conduct of the
defense of such action or (iii) the Corporation in fact shall not have employed
counsel to assume the defense of such action. The Corporation shall not be
entitled to assume the defense of any action, suit or proceeding brought by or
on behalf of the Corporation or as to which Agent shall have made the conclusion
provided for in clause (ii) above; and

(c) the Corporation shall not be liable to indemnify Agent under this Agreement
for any amounts paid in settlement of any action or claim effected without its
written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Corporation shall
be permitted to settle any action except that it shall not settle any action or
claim in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Agent
without Agent's written consent, which may be given or withheld in Agent's sole
discretion.

6. EXPENSES. Promptly following request therefor, the Corporation shall advance,
prior to the final disposition of any proceeding, all expenses incurred by Agent
in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on
behalf of Agent to repay such amounts if it shall ultimately be determined by a
final judicial decision from which there is no further right of appeal that
Agent is not entitled to be indemnified.

7. ENFORCEMENT. Any right to indemnification or advances granted by this
Agreement to Agent shall be enforceable by or on behalf of Agent in any court of
competent jurisdiction if (i) the claim for indemnification or advances is
denied, in whole or in part, or (ii) no disposition of such claim is made within
90 days of request therefor. Agent, in such enforcement action, if successful in
whole or in part, also shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting
Agent's claim. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of
Directors or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the
commencement of such enforcement action that indemnification of Agent is proper
in the circumstances, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including
its Board of Directors or its stockholders) that such indemnification is
improper shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Agent is
not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise.

8. SUBROGATION. In the event of payment under this Agreement, the Corporation
shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of
recovery of Agent, who shall execute all documents required and shall do all
acts that may be necessary to secure such rights and to enable the Corporation
effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

9. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The rights conferred on Agent by this Agreement
shall not be exclusive of any other right Agent may have or hereafter acquire
under any statute, provision of the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation
or Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or directors, or otherwise, both as
to action in Agent's official capacity and as to action in another capacity
while holding office.

10. SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS.

(a) The rights conferred on Agent by this Agreement shall continue after Agent
has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or other agent of the Corporation
or to serve at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee
or other agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust,
employee benefit plan or other enterprise and shall inure to the benefit of
Agent's heirs, executors and administrators.

(b) The Corporation shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by
purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the
business or assets of the Corporation, expressly to assume and agree to perform
this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation
would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

11. SEPARABILITY. Each of the provisions of this Agreement is a separate and
distinct agreement and independent of the others, so that if any provision
hereof shall be held to be invalid for any reason, such invalidity contained
herein or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
the other provisions hereof. Furthermore, if this Agreement shall be invalidated
in its entirety on any ground, then the Corporation nevertheless shall indemnify
Agent to the fullest extent provided by the Bylaws, the Code or any other
applicable law.

12. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

13.

[PRIOR AGREEMENT. Effective upon the date of this Agreement, the Indemnity
Agreement previously entered into by and between the Corporation and Agent is
superseded by the rights and covenants set forth in this Agreement.]

14. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. No amendment, modification, termination or
cancellation of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed in writing by
both parties hereto.

15. IDENTICAL COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed for all purposes to be an original
but all of which together shall constitute this Agreement.

16. HEADINGS. The headings of the sections of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or
to affect the construction hereof.

17. NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (i) upon
delivery if delivered by hand to the party to whom such communication was
