best efforts to obtain Bankruptcy Court authorization thereof. The Company shall
use its best efforts to obtain such Bankruptcy Court approval and authorization
subject only to the subsequent review by the Bankruptcy Court under the standard
of review provided in Section 328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and not subject to
the standard of review set forth in Section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code. The
Company shall supply Rothschild and its counsel with a draft of such application
and any proposed order authorizing Rothschild's retention sufficiently in
advance of the filing of such application and proposed order to enable
Rothschild and its counsel to review and comment thereon. Rothschild shall have
no obligation to provide any services under this Agreement unless Rothschild's
retention under the terms of this Agreement is approved in the manner set forth
above by a final order of the Bankruptcy Court no longer subject to appeal,
rehearing, reconsideration or petition for certiorari and which order is
reasonably acceptable to Rothschild in all respects.

     Rothschild acknowledges that in the event that the Bankruptcy Court
approves its retention by the Company pursuant to the application process
described in this Section 3, payment of Rothschild's fees and expenses shall be
subject to (i) the jurisdiction and approval of the Bankruptcy Court under
Section 328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and any order approving Rothschild's
retention, (ii) any applicable fee and expense guidelines and/or orders and
(iii) any requirements governing interim and final fee applications. In the
event that Rothschild's engagement hereunder is approved by the Bankruptcy
Court, the Company shall pay all fees and expenses of Rothschild hereunder as
promptly as practicable in accordance with the terms hereof and the orders
governing interim and final fee applications, and after obtaining all necessary
further approvals from the Bankruptcy Court, if any. In so agreeing to seek
Rothschild's retention under Section 328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Company
acknowledges that it believes that Rothschild's general restructuring experience
and expertise, its knowledge of the industry in which the Company operates and
the capital markets and its merger and acquisition capabilities will inure to
the benefit of the Company in pursuing any Transaction or other transaction,
that the value to the Company of Rothschild's services hereunder derives in
substantial part from that expertise and experience and that, accordingly, the
structure and amount of the Monthly Fee, the Completion Fee and the M&A Fee (as
each is defined below) are reasonable regardless of the number of hours to be
expended by Rothschild's professionals in performance of the services to be
provided hereunder.

     Section 4 Fees of Rothschild. As compensation for the services rendered
hereunder, the Company, and its successors, if any, agree to pay Rothschild (via
wire transfer or other mutually acceptable means) the following fees in cash:

     (a) Commencing as of the date hereof, and whether or not a Transaction is
proposed or consummated, a cash advisory fee (the "Monthly Fee") of $125,000 per
month. The initial Monthly Fee shall be pro-rated based on the commencement of
services as of the

                                                               (ROTHSCHILD LOGO)

date hereof and shall be payable by the Company upon the execution of this
Agreement by each of the parties hereto, and thereafter the Monthly Fee shall be
payable by the Company in advance on the first day of each month.

     (b) Either (1) a fee (the "Completion Fee") of $1,737,500, payable in cash
upon the consummation of a Transaction other than an M&A Transaction, or (2) a
fee (the "M&A Fee") equal to the greater of $1,737,500 or 0.85% of the
Consideration (as defined below) for any M&A Transaction. The M&A Fee shall be
payable when and if such Consideration is paid.

     The term "Consideration" shall mean the total value of all cash,
securities, the repurchase, cancellation or buy-out of any options or warrants,
any agreements or other property and any other consideration, including, without
limitation, any contingent, earned or other consideration, paid or payable,
directly or indirectly, in connection with a Transaction. Consideration shall be
deemed to include the face amount of any indebtedness for borrowed money,
including, without limitation, pension liabilities and obligations assumed,
retired or defeased, directly or indirectly, in connection with, or which
survive the closing of, a Transaction. In the event such Transaction takes the
form of a recapitalization, restructuring, spin-off or similar transaction,
"Consideration" shall also include the fair market value of (i) the equity
securities of the Company retained by the Company's security holders following
such Transaction and (ii) any securities received by the Company's security
holders in exchange for or in respect of securities of the Company following
such Transaction (all securities received by such security holders being deemed
to have been paid to such security holders in such Transaction).

     The Company and Rothschild acknowledge and agree that (i) the hours worked,
(ii) the results achieved and (iii) the ultimate benefit to the Company of the
work performed, in each case, in connection with this engagement, may be
variable, and that the Company and Rothschild have taken such factors into
account in setting the fees hereunder.

     The Company shall not be obligated to pay under clause (b) of this Section
4 an amount exceeding the greater of one Completion Fee or one M&A Fee. Except
as otherwise provided in Section 8, the Company shall not be obligated to pay
any Completion Fee or M&A Fee if a Transaction occurs after this Agreement has
terminated. If an M&A Transaction and a non-M&A Transaction both occur on the
"Effective Date" of a Plan or as a part of a transaction outside of a bankruptcy
proceeding, the amount of any fee otherwise payable by the Company shall be the
greater of the M&A Fee for the M&A Transaction or the Completion Fee for the
non-M&A Transaction.

     To the extent the Company requests Rothschild to perform additional
services not contemplated by this Agreement, such additional fees shall be
mutually agreed upon by Rothschild and the Company, in writing, in advance.

     Section 5 Credit. Rothschild shall credit against the Completion Fee or the
M&A Fee, as applicable, 50% of the aggregate Monthly Fees paid to Rothschild
under Section 4(a) in excess of $375,000 (the "Monthly Fee Credit"); provided
that the Monthly Fee Credit shall not exceed the Completion Fee or M&A Fee
payable, as applicable. In addition, the Completion Fee, to the extent paid,
shall be fully credited against the M&A Fee; provided that such credit shall not
exceed the M&A Fee. Alternatively, the M&A Fee, to the extent paid, shall be
fully credited against the Completion Fee; provided that such credit shall not
exceed the Completion Fee.

     Section 6 Expenses. Without in any way reducing or affecting the provisions
of Exhibit A hereto, the Company shall reimburse Rothschild for its reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with and solely as the result of the performance
of its engagement hereunder, and the enforcement of this Agreement, including
without limitation the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one
counsel utilized by Rothschild in connection with such enforcement. Reasonable
expenses shall also include, but not be limited to, expenses incurred in
connection with travel and lodging, data processing and communication charges,
research and courier services. In the event the Company becomes a debtor and/or
a debtor-in-possession in a Chapter 11 case, consistent with and subject to any
applicable order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Company shall promptly reimburse
Rothschild for such expenses under this Section 6 upon presentation of an
invoice or other similar documentation with reasonable detail.

     Section 7 Indemnity. The Company agrees to the provisions of Exhibit A
hereto which provide for indemnification by the Company of Rothschild and
certain related persons. Such indemnification is an integral part of this
Agreement and the terms thereof are incorporated by reference as if fully stated
herein. Such indemnification shall survive any termination, expiration or
completion of this Agreement or Rothschild's engagement hereunder.

     Section 8 Term, (a) The term of Rothschild's engagement shall extend until
the completion of the first Transaction. This Agreement may be terminated by
either the Company or Rothschild after one hundred and twenty (120) days from
the date hereof by providing ten (10) days advance notice in writing. If
terminated, Rothschild shall be entitled to payment of any fees for any monthly
period which are due and owing to Rothschild upon the effective date of
termination; however, such amounts will be pro-rated for any incomplete monthly
period of service, and Rothschild will be entitled to reimbursement of any and
all reasonable expenses described in Section 6. Termination of Rothschild's
engagement

hereunder shall not affect or impair the Company's continuing obligation to
indemnify Rothschild and certain related persons as provided in Exhibit A.

     (b) If this Agreement is terminated by the Company (other than for a
material breach hereof by Rothschild and after giving Rothschild prior written
notice thereof and a reasonable opportunity to cure) and within one year after
the effective date of such termination (the "Tail Period"), a Transaction is
consummated or the Company enters into a binding written agreement providing for
a Transaction (and such Transaction is subsequently consummated at any time
thereafter), the Company shall pay Rothschild upon consummation of such
Transaction a Completion Fee or M&A Fee (whichever is applicable based on the
Transaction), less the Monthly Fee Credit as provided in Section 5.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, prior to the
consummation of any Transaction or entering into a binding agreement providing
for a Transaction, Neil Augustine ("Key Employee") is no longer actively working
on this engagement (other than by reason of death or disability), the
responsibilities of Key Employee shall be assumed by a Managing Director of
Rothschild with similar experience in advising companies on potential
restructurings ("Key Employee Replacement"). If the Company determines, in good
faith and after providing Rothschild with a reasonable opportunity to identify
and discuss with the Company a suitable Key Employee Replacement, that none of
the Key Employee Replacements proposed by Rothschild is acceptable, the Company
may terminate this Agreement as provided in clause (a) above and the Tail Period
otherwise applicable hereunder, shall be reduced to one hundred and thirty-five
(135) days.

     Section 9 Miscellaneous.

     (a) Administrative Expense Priority. To the extent such compensation is
approved by the Bankruptcy Court, in the event the Company determines to
commence Chapter 11 cases in order to pursue a Transaction or other transaction,
the Company agrees that Rothschild's post-petition compensation as set forth
herein and payments made pursuant to reimbursement and indemnification
provisions of this Agreement shall be entitled to priority as expenses of
administration under Sections 503(b)(1)(A) and 507(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code
and shall be entitled to the benefits of any "carve-outs" for professional fees
and expenses in effect in such Chapter 11 cases pursuant to one or more
financing orders entered by the Bankruptcy Court.

     (b) Survival, Successors & Assigns. Sections 4 through 9 hereof, inclusive
(excluding the obligation to pay ongoing Monthly Fees as provided in Section
4(a)), including the provisions set forth in Exhibit A hereto, shall survive the
termination or expiration of this Agreement. The benefits of this Agreement and
the indemnification and other obligations of the Company to Rothschild and
certain related persons contained in Exhibit A hereto shall inure to the
respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto and thereto and of the

indemnified parties, and the obligations and liabilities assumed in this

have the authority to manage money or property of the Company. The parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that, except as specifically set forth in the last
sentence of Section 1 above, by providing the services contemplated hereunder,
Rothschild will not act, nor will it be deemed to have acted, in any managerial

     (e) Public Announcements. The Company acknowledges that Rothschild may at
its option and expense, after announcement of the Transaction, place
announcements and advertisements or otherwise publicize the Transaction in such
financial and other newspapers and journals as it may choose, stating that
Rothschild acted as financial advisor to the Company in connection with such
Transaction; provided that such actions comply in full with all requirements
imposed by federal and state law and regulations and the Nasdaq stock market, if
any, and the Company is not caused to incur material or significant expense or
regulatory compliance requirements as a result thereof. Company further consents
to Rothschild's public use or display of Company's logo, symbol or trademark as
part of Rothschild's general marketing or promotional activities, provided such
use or display is in the nature of a public record or tombstone announcement in

                                    Exhibit A

     The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Rothschild and its
affiliates, counsel and other professional advisors, and the respective
directors, officers, controlling persons, agents and employees of each of the
foregoing (Rothschild and all of such other persons collectively, the
"Indemnified Parties"), from and against any losses, claims or proceedings,
including without limitation stockholder actions, damages, judgments,
assessments, investigation costs, settlement costs, fines, penalties,
arbitration awards and any other liabilities, costs, fees and expenses
(collectively, "Losses") (a) directly or indirectly related to or arising out of
(i) oral or written information provided by the Company, the Company's employees
or other agents, which either the Company or an Indemnified Party provides to
any person or entity or (ii) any other action or failure to act by the Company,
the Company's employees or other agents or any Indemnified Party at the
Company's request or with the Company's consent, in each case in connection
with, arising out of, based upon, or in any way related to this Agreement, the
retention of and services provided by Rothschild under this Agreement, or any
Transaction or other transaction contemplated by the Agreement; or (b) otherwise
directly or indirectly in connection with, arising out of, based upon, or in any
way related to the engagement of Rothschild under this Agreement or any
transaction or conduct in connection therewith, provided that the Company shall
not be required to indemnify any Indemnified Party for such Losses if and only
to the extent that it is finally judicially determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction that such Losses arose primarily because of the gross negligence,
willful misconduct or fraud of an Indemnified Party. If multiple claims are
brought against an Indemnified Party in an arbitration, with respect to at least
one of which indemnification is permitted under applicable law and provided for
under this Agreement, the Company agrees that any arbitration award shall be
conclusively deemed to be based on claims as to which indemnification is
permitted and provided for, except to the extent the arbitration award expressly
states that the award, or any portion thereof, is based on a claim as to which
indemnification is not available.

     The Company shall further reimburse any Indemnified Party promptly after
obtaining the necessary approval of the Bankruptcy Court, if any, for any
reasonable legal or other fees, disbursements or expenses as they are incurred
(a) in investigating, preparing or pursuing any action or other proceeding
(whether formal or informal) or threat thereof as to which such Indemnified
Party reasonably believes that indemnification hereunder may be available,
whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation or
arbitration and whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party (each, an
"Action") and (b) in connection with enforcing such Indemnified Party's rights
under this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event and only to the
extent that it is finally judicially determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction that the Losses of such Indemnified Party arose primarily because
of the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of such Indemnified Party,
such Indemnified Party will promptly remit to the Company any amounts reimbursed
under this paragraph.

     Upon receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of any Action, such
Indemnified Party shall notify the Company in writing of such Action, but the
failure to so notify shall not relieve

the Company from any liability hereunder (i) if the Company had actual notice of
such Action or (ii) unless and only to the extent that such failure results in
the forfeiture by the Company of substantial rights and defenses. The Company
shall, if requested by Rothschild, assume the defense of any such Action
including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Rothschild and
will not, without the prior written consent of Rothschild, settle, compromise,
consent or otherwise resolve or seek to terminate any pending or threatened
Action (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto) unless such
settlement, compromise, consent or termination (a) contains an express,
unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability relating to
such Action and the engagement of Rothschild under this Agreement and (b) does
not include a statement as to, or an admission of fault, culpability or a
failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party. Any Indemnified Party
shall be entitled to retain separate counsel of its choice and participate in
the defense of any Action in connection with any of the matters to which this
Agreement relates, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of such Indemnified Party unless (x) the Company has failed promptly to
assume the defense and employ counsel or (y) the named parties to any such
Action (including any impleaded parties) include such Indemnified Party and the
Company, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that
there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from
or in addition to those available to the Company; provided that the Company
shall not in such event be responsible under this Agreement for the fees and
expenses of more than one firm of separate counsel (in addition to local
counsel) in connection with any such Action in the same jurisdiction.

     The Company agrees that if any right of any Indemnified Party set forth in
the preceding paragraphs is finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unavailable (except by reason of the gross negligence,
willful misconduct or fraud of such Indemnified Party),, then the Company shall
contribute to such Losses (a) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Company and its creditors and
stockholders, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and (b) if (and only if)
the allocation provided in clause (a) is not permitted by applicable law, in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (a) but also the relative fault of the Company and such
Indemnified Party; provided, that, in no event shall the aggregate contribution
of all such Indemnified Parties exceed the amount of fees received by Rothschild
under this Agreement. Benefits received by Rothschild shall be deemed to be
equal to the compensation paid by the Company to Rothschild in connection with
this Agreement. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether any alleged untrue statement or omission or any other alleged
conduct relates to information provided by the Company or other conduct by the
Company (or the Company's employees or other agents) on the one hand or by
Rothschild on the other hand.

     The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability
(whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company
for or in connection with

advice or services rendered or to be rendered by any Indemnified Party pursuant
to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any Indemnified
Party's actions or inactions in connection with any such advice, services or
transactions except for and only to the extent that such Losses of the Company
are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen
primarily because of the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of such
Indemnified Party in connection with any such advice, actions, inactions or
services.

     The rights of the Indemnified Parties and the Company hereunder shall be in
addition to any other rights that any of them may have at common law, by statute
or otherwise. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement, if
any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in this Agreement is held
by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void,
unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions contained in this Agreement shall all
remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or
invalidated. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the
Company set forth herein shall apply to any modification of this Agreement and
shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any termination of, or the
completion of any Indemnified Party's services under or in connection with, this
Agreement.
