 AGREEMENT 
  
 The parties hereby
agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Registration Rights. The Company and the Investors covenant and agree as follows: 

  
 1.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Section 1: 
  
 (a) The terms “register,” “registered,” and “registration” refer to a
registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or similar document in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such
registration statement or document; 
  
 (b) The
term “Registrable Securities” means (i) the Issued Shares and (ii) any other shares of Common Stock issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or
other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, the Issued Shares; provided, however, that the foregoing definition shall exclude in all cases any Registrable Securities sold by a person in a transaction in which his or
her rights under this Agreement are not assigned. Notwithstanding the 

 foregoing, the Issued Shares or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and
so long as they have not been (A) sold to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, (B) sold in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions, and restrictive legends with respect thereto, if any, are removed upon the consummation of such sale, or (C) eligible for sale under Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act; 
  
 (c) The number of shares of
“Registrable Securities then outstanding” shall be determined by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding which are, and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to then exercisable or convertible securities which
are, Registrable Securities; 
  
 (d) The term
“Holder” means the Investors and any person owning or having the right to acquire Registrable Securities or any assignee thereof in accordance with Section 1.11 of this Agreement; and 
  
 (e) The term “SEC” means the Securities and
Exchange Commission. 
  
 1.2 Incidental Registration. If
(but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to file a registration statement covering (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its securities under the
Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successors thereto, or a registration in which the only stock being registered is Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of debt securities which are also being registered, the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within fifteen (15) days after receipt
of such notice by the Holder in accordance with Section 5.3, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 1.7, cause to be included in such registration and offering and any underwriting of such offering registered under the Securities
Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered. 
  
 1.3 Mandatory Registration. If the registration of all Registrable Securities by the Company has not been effected by August 31, 2004, the Company shall register any and all remaining Registrable Securities by
filing a registration statement under the Securities Act on a Form S-3 or any successor thereto, or a similar registration form available to the Company, in accordance with Section 1.4. The Company shall cause such registration statement to become
effective as soon as practicable, but in any event within 45 days of August 31, 2004. 
  
 1.4 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 1 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible: 
  
 (a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement
with respect to such Registrable Securities and use all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective (provided that before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the
Company shall furnish counsel for such Holders with 
  

 2 

 copies of all such documents proposed to be filed) and keep such registration statement effective for up
to 18 months or until such time as Holder has completed the distribution described in such registration statement or until the securities thereunder shall cease to be Registrable Securities, whichever occurs first. The Company shall not be required
to file, cause to become effective or maintain the effectiveness of any registration statement (other than a registration statement on Form S-3 pursuant to Section 1.3) that contemplates a distribution of securities on a delayed or continuous basis
pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. 
  
 (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act
with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement for up to 18 months (or such shorter period as may be provided in Section 1.4(a)). 
  
 (c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in
conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents, as well as take all such other actions, as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.

  
 (d) Furnish to the Holders’ counsel
copies of any correspondence between the Company and the SEC with respect to any registration statement which includes Registrable Securities or amendment or supplement thereto filed pursuant to this Agreement. 
  
 (e) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the
securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders (and maintain such registrations and qualifications effective for the applicable
period of time set forth in Section 1.4(a)), and do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of such shares, provided that the Company shall not
be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions. 
  
 (f) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an
underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 
  
 (g) Promptly notify each Holder upon the occurrence of any
of the following: (i) the happening of any event that makes any statement made in such registration statement or related prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that
requires the making of any changes in the registration statement, related prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the registration statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the related prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not 
  

 3 

 misleading, and to use its best efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or amendment; (ii) the receipt
of any request for additional information by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority; and (iii) the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the registration statement or issuance of a new or
supplemented prospectus would be appropriate; all such obligations to continue for 18 months after such registration statement including Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC or until such time as Holder has completed the
distribution described in such registration statement or until the Company’s obligation to maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement has terminated, whichever occurs first. 
  
 (h) Within five business days after a registration statement
which includes Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause counsel of the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to the Holders’ counsel) an
appropriate instruction which will allow the Registrable Securities to be sold without restriction or delay. 
  
 (i) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered hereunder to be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. 
  
 (j) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all
Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration. 
  
 (k) Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to
Section 1.2, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to Section 1.2, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not
being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form
and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities stating that such registration statement has become
effective under the Securities Act and that (A) to the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness thereof has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or contemplated under the
Securities Act, (B) the registration statement, the related prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereof comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act, and (C) to such other effects as reasonably may
be requested by counsel for the underwriters or by such Holders or their counsel, and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent
certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities, stating that they are independent public accountants within
the meaning of the Securities Act and that, in the opinion of such accountants, the audited financial statements of the Company included in the registration statement or the related prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, comply as to
form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act, and such letter shall additionally cover such other such financial matters (including information as to 
  

 4 

 the period ending no more than five business days prior to the date of such letter) with respect to such
registration as reasonably may be requested by counsel for the underwriters or by such Holders or their counsel. 
  
 1.5 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 1 with
respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be
required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities. 
  
 1.6 Expenses of Registration. 
  
 (a) Company Registration. All expenses (other than underwriting discounts and commissions, stock transfer taxes and fees of counsel to the selling Holders in addition to that provided below) incurred in connection
with registrations, filings or qualifications of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1 for each Holder, including (without limitation) all registration, filing, and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders selected by them with the approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall be borne by the
Company. 
  
 (b) Underwriting Discounts and
Commissions. All underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations in connection with each registration statement under Section 1 shall be borne by the participating sellers (and the Company, if the Company is a
seller) in proportion to the number of shares sold by each, or as they otherwise may agree. 
  
 1.7 Underwriting Requirements. In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under Section 1 to include any of the
Holders’ securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such
quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not materially impair the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by Holders to be included in such
offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that
number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not materially impair the success of the offering. For purposes of such apportionment: 
  
 (a) In the case of registration pursuant to Section 1.2, the
Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell and securities of any holder of Other Registration Rights pursuant to the Prior Agreement, and (ii) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be
included in such registration by the Holders (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the Holders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each Holder); and 
  

 5 

 (b) In the case of registration pursuant to Section 1.3, (i) first, the Registrable
Securities and (ii) second, the securities the Company proposes to sell and securities of any holder of Other Registration Rights pursuant to the Prior Agreement. 
  
 For purposes of the preceding (a) and (b) concerning apportionment, for any selling stockholder which is a holder of Registrable Securities
and which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and stockholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons
shall be deemed to be a single “selling stockholder,” and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such “selling stockholder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and
individuals included in such “selling stockholder,” as defined in this sentence. 
  
 (c) For the avoidance of doubt, it is agreed and understood that the Holders shall not be permitted to effect an underwritten offering
pursuant to a registration effected under section 1.3 hereof without the prior consent of the Company. 
  
 1.8 Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration
as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 1. 
  
 1.9 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Section 1: 
  
 (a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the partners, officers, directors and representatives of any such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations
(collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any
amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the
Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter or
controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in
this subsection 1.9(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor
shall the Company be liable to any Holder, underwriter or controlling person for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises 
  

 6 

 out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person. 
  
 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each
of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement and any
controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal
or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be
indemnified pursuant to this subsection 1.9(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 1.9(b) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that in no event shall any indemnity under
this subsection 1.9(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. 
  
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 1.9 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 1.9, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying
party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties;
provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid
by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party
represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 1.9, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise
than under this Section 1.9. 
  
 (d) If the
indemnification provided for in this Section 1.9 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party,
in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable 
  

 7 

 by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or
expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this Subsection 1.9(d) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of
willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to
state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

  
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the
extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with any underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting
agreement shall control. 
  
 (f) The obligations
of the Company and Holders under this Section 1.9 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 1, and otherwise. 
  
 1.10 Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of
SEC Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees to: 
  
 (a) make and keep public information available, as those
terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, so long as the Company remains subject to the periodic reporting requirements under Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; 
  
 (b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and 
  
 (c)
furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or
regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration. 
  
 1.11 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1 may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a
transferee or assignee of at least 250,000 shares of such securities (appropriately adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, or other recapitalization) or to a partner or affiliate (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act) of the
Holder, 
  

 8 

 provided that (i) the Company is, promptly after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of
such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; (ii) the transferee or assignee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (iii) such assignment shall be
effective only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in the foregoing sentence regarding the
minimum number of shares that must be transferred, any Holder that is a corporation may transfer such Holder’s registration rights to its wholly-owned subsidiaries without restriction as to the number of shares transferred. 
  
 1.12 “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. In the event that the
Company effects a registration of any securities under the Securities Act in an underwritten public offering, each Holder hereby agrees that, during the period of duration (up to, but not exceeding, 180 days) specified by the Company and an
underwriter of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act, it shall not, to the extent requested by the Company and such underwriter,
directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of
the Company held by it at any time during such period except Common Stock included in such registration; provided, however, that all officers and directors of the Company, and all holders of one percent or more of the Company’s outstanding
Common Stock enter into similar agreements of at least the same length. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of each Holder (and the shares or
securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period, and each Holder agrees that, if so requested, such Holder will execute an agreement in the form provided by the underwriter containing terms which
are essentially consistent with the provisions of this Section 1.12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations described in this Section 1.12 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or
similar forms which may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms which may be promulgated in the future. 
  
 1.13 Termination of Registration Rights. No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in this
Section 1 if pursuant to SEC Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act the Holder may sell all of such Holder’s shares in a single transaction without registration. 
  
 1.14 Representation and Warranties of the Company. 
  
 (a) Form S-3. The Company represents and warrants that it
meets all of the registrant requirements for the use of Form S-3. The Company shall promptly notify the Holders at any time that the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3. 
  
 (b) Other Registration Rights. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company does not, and the
performance of this Agreement by the Company will not,conflict with or violate the Prior Agreement or any other agreement of the Company containing outstanding registration rights granted to holders of Company capital stock.

                                ESCROW AGREEMENT

     THIS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is entered into as of this 22/nd/ day of
August, 2003, by and between The Frontier Fund, a Delaware statutory trust (the
"Trust"), Equinox Fund Management, LLC, a limited liability company formed under
the laws of the state of Delaware ("Equinox" and together with the Trust, the
"Company") and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association
("Escrow Agent"). All capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have
the meanings set forth in the prospectus of the Trust, including all the
appendices and exhibits thereto, as the same may be amended and updated from
time to time (the "Prospectus").

                                    RECITALS

     A.   Equinox serves as the managing owner of the Trust and has complete
management authority over the Trust.

     B.   The Trust is conducting a private offering of units of beneficial
interest (the "Units") at an initial price of $100.00 per Unit, in six separate
and distinct Series identified below, under applicable state and Federal laws
and regulations (the "Offering").

     C.   The Company wishes to assure those who subscribe for any of the Units
(the "Subscriber") that the Subscribers' monies will be released to the Company
only if and when not less than the following amounts as determined in accordance
with the methods below (the "Threshold Amount") in subscriptions from such
number of investors for each Series as set forth in the Prospectus (which number
shall be provided in writing to the Escrow Agent by the Company) are accepted by
the Company from the sale of Units and upon the direction of the Company, it
being understood that release of monies may be for each Series separately:

          Name of Series                               Threshold Amount
          --------------                               ----------------
          Balanced Series                                $ 20,000,000
          Graham Series                                  $  5,000,000
          Beach Series                                   $  0*
          C-View Currency Series                         $  0*
          Dunn Series                                    $  0*

* The Beach Series, C-View Currency Series and Dunn Series have no Threshold
  Amounts. However, the Subscribers' monies for such Series shall not be
  released to the Company until the Balanced Series reaches its Threshold
  Amount.

                                       1

<PAGE>

     D.   The Company desires to provide for the safekeeping of the proceeds of
the Offering until such time as subscriptions for the Units in any Series
totaling the Threshold Amounts (or such greater amount as the Company may direct
in writing) have been received and upon the direction of the Company, or until
such time as the Escrow Agent is required to pay and return such proceeds to the
payors upon the terms hereinafter provided.

                                    AGREEMENT

     1.   Deposit and Disbursement.

          a.   The Escrow Agent hereby agrees to receive and disburse the
proceeds from the Offering and any interest earned thereon in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement.

          b.   The Company or its authorized placement agents, on behalf of the
Subscribers, shall from time to time cause to be wired or deposited with the
Escrow Agent all proceeds received from the sales of Units by 12:00 p.m., New
York City time, the next business day following the receipt of such proceeds by
the Company or its authorized placement agents. Such proceeds shall be placed in
a special interest-bearing escrow account, in the appropriate sub-account at the
Escrow Agent designated for each Series (the "Escrow Account") until the
Threshold Amounts for each Series (or such greater amount as the Company may
direct in writing) have been deposited in said account. The Company shall direct
Subscribers to identify the Series for which such deposits are being made, and
direct subscribers to make payments to the Escrow Agent using the instructions
identified on Exhibit C attached hereto and incorporated herein. All proceeds
are to be deposited in the Escrow Account within three (3) business days after
receipt by Escrow Agent.

          c.   As deposits are made in the Escrow Account and at least every
3/rd/ business day, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent
with each such deposit a list showing the name, address, and tax identification
number of each Subscriber as well as the name and address of each payor, by
Series, which list shall not be cumulative but shall identify only new deposits.
The Escrow Agent shall keep a current list by Series of the persons who have
subscribed for the Units and deposited money, showing name, date, address and
amount of each subscription. All funds so deposited shall remain the property of
the Subscribers, subject to the provisions of Section 5 herein. The Escrow Agent
shall promptly forward to the Company any subscription agreements which it may
receive directly from Subscribers.

          d.   If the Company rejects any subscriptions for which the Escrow
Agent has already collected funds, or in the event that the Subscriber rescinds
its subscription in conformity with the requirements of the North American
Securities Administrators Association Inc. Guidelines for Registration of
Commodity Pool Programs, which rescission has been approved by the Company and
the Company has notified the Escrow Agent thereof, the Escrow Agent shall
promptly issue a refund check to the payor, in the amount of the original
deposit collected

                                       2

<PAGE>

from such payor via first class U.S. mail, with interest and without deduction
for expenses. If the Company rejects any subscription for which the Escrow Agent
has not yet collected funds but has submitted the Subscriber's check for
collection, the Escrow Agent shall promptly issue a check in the amount of the
rejected Subscriber's check upon actual collection. The Escrow Agent shall
promptly remit the Subscriber's check directly to the Subscriber.

          e.   In the event that the Threshold Amount for any Series is not
deposited with Escrow Agent on or before the date for the closing of the initial
offering period as set forth in the Prospectus, which date shall be provided to
the Escrow Agent in writing by the Company (unless that date is extended in
accordance therewith, and the Company has notified the Escrow Agent in writing
of such extension), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, the Escrow
Agent shall promptly return the funds which have been deposited in the Escrow
Account to the payors (in the same way described above in Section 1 (d)), in the
amount and to the addresses as shown on its records, plus any Interest Income
earned on such subscription funds.

          f.   Upon receipt of (i) the Threshold Amount for each Series (or such
greater amount as the Company may direct in writing) and (ii) written
confirmation from the Company that funds may be released from escrow, the Escrow
Agent shall release the escrow funds, including all Interest Income to the
Trust. At the Company's option, it may continue to deposit proceeds from the
sale of additional Units (after receipt and/or distribution of the Threshold
Amount or any greater amount as directed in writing by the Company) and to
direct the disbursement from time to time of funds so deposited after
subscriptions for the Threshold Amount have been received but not to exceed 3
months from the date of this Agreement.

     2.   Responsibilities and Obligations of Escrow Agent.

          a.   The Escrow Agent assumes no responsibilities, obligations, or
liabilities except those expressly provided for in this Agreement as follows:

               (1)  The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility, obligation or
liability to any person with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to
be taken by it in good faith under this Agreement and shall in no event be
liable hereunder except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

               (2)  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no
reference in this Agreement to any other agreement, including but not limited to
Exhibit A, shall be construed or deemed to enlarge the responsibilities,
obligations, or liabilities of the Escrow Agent as set forth in this Agreement,
and the Escrow Agent is not charged with knowledge of any other agreement.

          b.   The Escrow Agent shall be protected in relying upon the truth of
any statement contained in any requisition, notice, request, certificate,
approval, consent or other proper paper, and in acting on any such document,
which on its face and without inquiry as to any other facts, appears to be
genuine and to be signed by the proper party

                                       3

<PAGE>

or parties, and is entitled to believe all signatures are genuine and that any
person signing any such paper who claims to be duly authorized is in fact so
authorized.

          c.   The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act on any instruction
given to it in writing and signed by an authorized signatory of the Company and
shall be fully protected in doing so.

          d.   The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with any
court order or other final determination by any governmental authority with
jurisdiction of any matter arising hereunder.

          e.   The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for, and makes no
representation as to the value, validity or genuineness of any article, asset or
document deposited with Escrow Agent in the Escrow Account under this Agreement,
provided that it will give notice to the Company of any check for money not
credited and the reason stated therefore and of any discrepancy with respect to
the value, validity or genuineness of any article, asset or document so
deposited if and when it has actual knowledge thereof.

          f.   The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility to make payments
out of the Escrow Account for any amount in excess of the amount of collected
funds deposited in the Escrow Account, together with interest earnings thereon,
at the time any payment is to be made.

          g.   If any controversy arises between the parties hereto or with any
third person relating to the Escrow Account, the Escrow Agent shall not be
required to resolve the same or to take any action to do so but may at its
discretion, institute such interpleader or other proceedings as it deems proper.
The Escrow Agent may rely on any joint written instructions as to the
disposition of funds, assets, documents or other assets held in escrow
hereunder.

          h.   The Escrow Agent may execute any of its powers or
responsibilities hereunder and exercise any of its rights hereunder either
directly or by or through its agents or attorneys. Nothing in this Agreement
shall be deemed to impose upon the Escrow Agent any duty to qualify to do
business or to act as a fiduciary or otherwise in any jurisdiction. The Escrow
Agent shall not be responsible for and shall not be under a duty to examine or
pass upon the validity, binding effect, execution or sufficiency of the
Agreement or of any agreement amendatory of supplemental hereto or of any other
agreement.

     3.   Investment of Escrow Funds.

          The Escrow Agent shall invest funds in an interest-bearing U.S. Bank
Money Market Savings Account. Equinox acknowledges that this is a FDIC insured
U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account designed to meet the needs of U.S. Bank
Corporate Trust Services Escrow Group and other Corporate Trust customers of
U.S. Bank National Association. This is a tiered account and the interest rate
paid on the

                                       4

<PAGE>

account is based upon the daily balance maintained in your account. U.S. Bank
National Association uses the daily balance method to calculate interest on
these accounts. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal
balance in the account each day. Interest is accrued daily and credited monthly
to the account. The owner of the accounts is U.S. Bank as Agent for its
customers. At our discretion, we may change the interest rate for the Money
Market Deposit Accounts at any time. All account deposits and withdrawals are
performed by U.S. Bank National Association. Any and all interest earned on the
Proceeds after the deposit shall be added to the Proceeds and shall become a
part thereof. All entities entitled to receive interest from the escrow account
will provide Escrow Agent with a W-9 or W-8 IRS tax form prior to the
disbursement of interest. A statement of citizenship will be provided if
requested by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for
preparing or filing any Federal or state tax returns in connection therewith.

     4.   Compensation of Escrow Agent.

          The Escrow Agent shall be paid reasonable compensation as set forth on
Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporate herein, for services hereunder and
shall be reimbursed for any actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Escrow
Agent for performing its duties hereunder. Payment of all fees shall be the
responsibility of the Company and may, to the extent of unpaid fees and
expenses, be deducted from any property placed within the escrow with Escrow
Agent, which belongs to the Company.

          In the event that the Escrow Agent is made a party to litigation with
respect to the property held hereunder, or brings an action in interpleader or
in the event that the conditions of this escrow are not promptly fulfilled, or
the Escrow Agent is required to render any service not provided for in this
Agreement, or there is any assignment of the interest of this escrow or any
modification hereof, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reasonable
compensation for such extraordinary services and reimbursement for all fees,
costs, liability and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees. The Escrow
Agent may amend its fee schedule from time to time on ninety (90) days prior
written notice to the Company, provided, however, that any fee increase shall
not exceed 10% of the amounts set forth on the existing fee schedule.

     5.   Indemnification of Escrow Agent.

          The Company hereby indemnifies and hold harmless the Escrow Agent
against any and all claims, losses, and damages it may suffer in connection with
its carrying out the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the
Escrow Agent's unpaid fees and reimbursable expenses, but excluding any loss the
Escrow Agent may sustain as a result of its gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The Escrow Agent shall have a lien or right of setoff on all Company
funds, monies or other assets held hereunder to pay all of its fees and
reimbursable expenses permitted under this Agreement. The obligations of the
Company under this Section 5 shall survive termination for any reason of this
Agreement or resignation or removal of Escrow Agent.

     6.   Termination and Resignation.

          a.   This Agreement shall terminate when (i) the Escrow Agent or its
successor or assign receives written notification of termination from the
Company including final disposition instructions signed by the Company, and (ii)
there occurs the actual final disposition of the monies held in escrow hereunder
as provide in this Agreement. The rights and obligations of the Escrow Agent
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

          b.   The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from
its duties as Escrow Agent hereunder by giving the Company not fewer than thirty
(30) days prior written notice thereof. As soon as practicable after its
resignation, the Escrow Agent shall turn over to a successor escrow agent
appointed by the Company all monies held hereunder upon presentation of the
document from the Company appointing a successor escrow agent and its acceptance
of appointment. If no successor has been appointed by the Company, the Escrow
Agent may designate its successor by written notice to the Company so long as
any such successor is a bank or trust company. Upon the designation of a
successor escrow agent and the delivery to a resigning escrow agent of the
document appointing such successor escrow agent and its acceptance of
appointment, the resigning escrow agent shall be released from any and all
liabilities arising thereafter except as provided in Sections 2(a)(1) and (5) of
this Agreement.

          If no successor escrow agent is appointed by the Company within the
thirty (30) day period following such notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent
reserves the right to forward the matter and all monies and other property held
by the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement to a court of competent
jurisdiction at the expense of the Company.

          c.   The Company may discharge the Escrow Agent and appoint a
successor escrow agent hereunder at any time by giving the Escrow Agent no fewer
than thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof. As soon as practicable after
its discharge, the Escrow Agent shall turn over to the successor escrow agent
appointed by the Company all monies held hereunder upon presentation of the
document from the Company appointing such successor escrow agent and its
acceptance of appointment. Upon the designation of a successor escrow agent, the
delivery of the document appointing a successor escrow agent and the delivery of
all monies held hereunder to such successor escrow agent pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence, the discharged escrow agent shall be released
from any and all liabilities arising thereafter except as provided in Sections
2(a)(1) and 5 of this Agreement.

     7.   Notices.

          All notices provided for herein shall be in writing, shall be
delivered by hand or by registered or certified mail and shall be deemed given
when actually received, and shall be addressed to the parties hereto at their
