this Escrow Agreement.

     7. Liability of Escrow Agent.
        -------------------------

          a. Escrow Agent shall have no liability or obligation with respect to
the Escrow Funds except for Escrow Agent's negligence. Escrow Agent's sole
responsibility shall be for the safekeeping and disbursement of the Escrow Funds
in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent shall have
no implied duties or obligations and shall not be charged with knowledge or
notice of any fact or circumstance not specifically set forth herein. Escrow
Agent may rely upon any instrument, whether bearing original, conformed or
facsimile signatures, not only as to its due execution, validity and
effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information
contained therein which Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine,
to have been signed or presented by the person or parties purporting to sign the
same and to conform to the provisions of this Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent
shall not be obligated to take any legal action or commence any proceeding in
connection with the Escrow Funds or any account in which the Escrow Funds are
deposited or this Escrow Agreement, or to appear in, prosecute or defend any
such legal action or proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for or required to enforce any
of the terms or conditions of any subscription agreement with Subscribers or any
other agreement between Issuer and/or Subscribers. Escrow Agent shall not be
responsible or liable in any manner for the performance by Issuer or any
Subscribers of their respective obligations under any subscription agreement nor
shall Escrow Agent be responsible or liable in any manner for the failure of
Issuer or any third party (including Subscribers) to honor any of the provisions
of this Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent may consult legal counsel selected by it
in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the
provisions hereof or of any other agreement or of its duties hereunder. Issuer
shall promptly pay, upon demand, the reasonable fees and expenses of any such
counsel.

          b. Escrow Agent is authorized, in its reasonable discretion, to comply
with orders issued or process entered by any court with respect to the Escrow
Funds, without determination by Escrow Agent of such court's jurisdiction in the
matter. If any portion of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached, garnished or
levied upon under any court order, or in case the payment, assignment, transfer,
conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any
court order, or in case any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered
by any court affecting such property or any part thereof, then and in any such
event, Escrow Agent is authorized, upon prior written notice to Issuer, to rely
upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree which it is
advised by legal counsel selected by it that is binding upon it without the need
for appeal or other action; and if Escrow Agent complies with any such order,
writ, judgment or decree, it shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or
to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance even though such
order, writ, judgment or decree may be subsequently reversed, modified,
annulled, set aside or vacated.

     8. Indemnification of Escrow Agent. From and at all times after the date of
        --------------------------------
this Escrow Agreement, Issuer shall, except as otherwise hereinafter provided,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent
and each partner, employee, agent and affiliate of Escrow Agent (collectively,
the "Indemnified Parties") against any and all actions, claims (whether or not
valid), losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind or nature
whatsoever (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and
expenses) incurred by or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties from
and after the date hereof, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a
result of, arising from or in any way relating to any claim, demand, suit,
action or proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) by any person,
including without limitation Issuer or Subscribers, whether threatened or
initiated, asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any
person under any statute or regulation, including, but not limited to, any
federal or state securities laws, or under any common law or equitable cause or

                                       4

<PAGE>


otherwise, arising from or in connection with the negotiation, preparation,
execution, performance or failure of performance of this Escrow Agreement or any
transactions contemplated herein, whether or not any such Indemnified Party is a
party to any such action, proceeding, suit or the target of any such inquiry or
investigation; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall have the right
to be indemnified hereunder for any liability finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction, subject to no further appeal, to have resulted from the
negligence of such Indemnified Party. If any such action or claim shall be
brought or asserted against any Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall
promptly notify Issuer in writing and Issuer shall promptly assume and enter an
appropriate defense for such Indemnified Party, including the employment of
counsel and the payment of all expenses. Such Indemnified Party shall, in its
sole discretion, have the right to employ separate counsel (who may be selected
by such Indemnified Party in its sole discretion) in any such action and to
participate in the defense thereof, and the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be paid by such Indemnified Party. The obligations of Issuer under this
Section 8 shall survive any termination of this Escrow Agreement and the
resignation or removal of Escrow Agent.

     9. Compensation to Escrow Agent.
        ----------------------------

          a. Fees. Issuer shall pay to Escrow Agent the fees set forth in
Exhibit B for the services provided under this Agreement.

          b. Disbursements from Escrow Funds to Pay Escrow Agent or Other
Parties. Escrow Agent is not authorized to disburse to itself or any other
person from the Escrow Funds (i) any amounts due to Escrow Agent or any other
party under this Section 9, or (ii) any amount Escrow Agent or any Indemnified
Party is entitled to seek pursuant to Section 8 hereof. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Escrow Agent may hold Escrow Funds until its fees are paid by Issuer.
