Agent a Joint Instruction authorizing delivery of the Documents and the Escrowed
Payment to a substitute Escrow Agent selected by the Purchaser and the Company.

Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New
York for appointment of a successor Escrow Agent, and deposit the Documents and
the Escrowed Payment with the clerk of any such court and/or otherwise commence
an interpleader or similar action for a determination of where to deposit the
same.

omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized

action taken or omitted by it in good faith, and in accordance with advice of
counsel (which counsel may be Loeb & Loeb, LLP or such other counsel of the
Escrow Agent's choosing), and shall not be liable for any mistake of fact or
error of judgment or for any acts or omissions of any kind except to the extent
any such liability arose from its own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement.

            (h) The Escrow Agent shall be permitted to act as counsel for the
Purchaser or the Company, as the case may be, in any dispute as to the
disposition of the Documents and the Escrowed Payment, in any other dispute

holding the Documents and/or the Escrowed Payment and continues to act as the
Escrow Agent hereunder.

its duties or rights hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall be authorized, without
liability to anyone, to (i) refrain from taking any action other than to
continue to hold the Documents and the Escrowed Payment pending receipt of a
Joint Instruction from the Purchaser and the Company, (ii) commence an
interpleader or similar action, suit or proceeding for the resolution of any
such dispute; and/or (iii) deposit the Documents and the Escrowed Payment with

and shall thereupon be relieved and discharged from all further obligations
pursuant to this Agreement. The Escrow Agent may, but shall be under no duty to,
institute or defend any legal proceedings which relate to the Documents and the
Escrowed Payment. The Escrow Agent shall have the right to retain counsel if it
becomes involved in any disagreement, dispute or litigation on account of this
Agreement or otherwise determines that it is necessary to consult counsel which
such counsel may be Loeb & Loeb LLP or such other counsel of the Escrow Agent's
choosing.
