      to the
      Investors under this Section and such 2008 Make Good Shares shall be returned

      this Section shall be made to the Investors or the Make Good Pledgor, as
      applicable, within 10
      Business
      Days after
      the date
which

    6.
      Escrow Shares.
      If any
      Escrow Shares are deliverable to the Investors pursuant to the SPA and in
      accordance with this Make Good Agreement, (i) Make Good Pledgor covenants and
      agrees to execute all such instruments of transfer (including stock powers
      and
      assignment documents) as are customarily executed to evidence and consummate
      the
      transfer of the Escrow Shares from Make Good Pledgor to the Investors, to the
      extent not done so in accordance with Section 2, and (ii) following its receipt
      of the documents referenced in Section 6(i), the Company and Escrow Agent
      covenant and agree to cooperate with the Transfer Agent so that the Transfer
      Agent promptly reissues such Escrow Shares in the applicable Investor’s name and
      delivers the same as directed by such Investor. Until such time as (if at all)
      the Escrow Shares are required to be delivered pursuant to the SPA and in
      accordance with this Make Good Agreement, any dividends payable in respect
      of
      the Escrow Shares and all voting rights applicable to the Escrow Shares shall

      held
      for any time longer than is needed to effectively re-route such items to the

      communication requiring the conversion of the Escrow Shares to cash or
      the exchange of the Escrow Shares for that of an acquiring company, the Escrow
      Agent shall solicit and follow the written instructions of the Make Good
      Pledgor; provided,
      that
      the cash or exchanged shares are instructed to be redeposited into the Escrow
      Account. Make Good Pledgor shall be responsible for all taxes resulting from
      any
      such conversion or exchange.

     

    7.
      Interpleader. 
      Should
      any controversy arise among the parties hereto with respect to this Make Good
      Agreement or with respect to the right to receive the Escrow Shares, Escrow
      Agent, the Company and/or the Investors shall have the right to consult and
      hire
      counsel and/or to institute an appropriate interpleader action to determine
      the
      rights of the parties. Escrow Agent, the Company and/or the Investors are also

      (or to
      such other address as such Indemnifying Stockholder may have previously
      instructed the Escrow Agent in writing), or returned to the Make Good Pledgor,
      as applicable. The Escrow Agent shall have no liability for the actions or
      omissions of, or any delay on the part of, the Company, the Transfer Agent,
      the
      Make Good Pledgor or the Investors in connection with the

    (ii) [Reserved.]

     

    (iii) Transaction
      Confirmations.
      The
      parties hereto acknowledge that, to the extent regulations of the Comptroller
      of
      the Currency, or other applicable regulatory entity, grant the parties the
      right
      to receive individual confirmations of security transactions at no additional
      cost, as they occur, the parties specifically waive receipt of such
      confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Escrow Agent will furnish
      the
      parties hereto with periodic cash transaction statements that include detail
      for
      all investment transactions made by the Escrow Agent hereunder.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (iv) Tax
      Reporting.
      The
      Company, the Make Good Pledgor and the Investors agree that, for tax reporting
      purposes, all interest or other income earned from the investment of the Escrow
      Property shall be reported by the Escrow Agent as allocated to the party to
      whom
      such interest or income is distributed.

     

    (v) Certification
      of Taxpayer Identification Number.
      Each of
      the Company, the Make Good Pledgor and the Investors hereto agrees to provide
      the Escrow Agent with a certified tax identification number by signing and
      returning a Form W-9 (or Form W-8 BEN, in case of non-U.S. persons) to the
      Escrow Agent, upon the execution and delivery of this Make Good Agreement.
      The
      Interested Parties understand that, in the event their tax identification
      numbers are not certified to the Escrow Agent, the Internal Revenue Code, as
      amended from time to time, may require withholding of a portion of any interest
      or other income earned on the investment of the Escrow Property. Each
      of
      the Interested Parties agrees
      to
      instruct the Escrow Agent in writing with respect to the Escrow Agent’s
      responsibility for withholding and other taxes, assessments or other
      governmental charges, and to instruct the Escrow Agent with respect to any
      certifications and governmental reporting that may be required under any laws
      or
      regulations that may be applicable in connection with its acting as Escrow
      Agent
      under this Make Good Agreement.

     

    d.
      Restricted
      Securities.
      The
      Company, Investors and the Make Good Pledgor agree that the Company shall be
      solely responsible for providing, at their cost and expense, any certification,
      opinion of counsel or other instrument or document necessary to comply with
      or
      satisfy any transfer restrictions to which the Escrow Shares are subject,
      including without limitation any opinion of counsel required to be delivered
      pursuant to any restrictive legend appearing on the certificate evidencing
      the
      Escrow Shares in connection with any distribution of Escrow Shares to be made
      by
      the Escrow Agent under or pursuant to this Make Good Agreement. Any such opinion
      of counsel shall include the Escrow Agent as an addressee or shall expressly
      consent to the Escrow Agent’s reliance thereon.

     

    9.
      Concerning the Escrow Agent. 

     

    a. Each
      Interested Party acknowledges and agrees that the Escrow Agent (i) shall not
      be
      responsible for any of the agreements referred to or described herein (including
      without limitation the SPA), or for determining or compelling compliance
      therewith, and shall not otherwise be bound thereby, (ii) shall be obligated
      only for the performance of such duties as are expressly and specifically set
      forth in this Make Good Agreement on its part to be performed, each of which
      is
      ministerial (and shall not be construed to be fiduciary) in nature, and no
      implied duties or obligations of any kind shall be read into this Make Good
      Agreement against or on the part of the Escrow Agent, (iii) shall not be
      obligated to take any legal or other action hereunder which might in its
      judgment involve or cause it to incur any expense or liability unless it shall
      have been furnished with acceptable indemnification, (iv) may rely on and shall
      be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any written notice,
      instruction (including, without limitation, wire transfer instructions, whether
      incorporated herein or provided in a separate written instruction), instrument,
      statement, certificate, request or other document furnished to it hereunder
      and
      believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
      person, and shall have no responsibility to make inquiry as to or to determine
      the genuineness, accuracy or validity thereof (or any signature appearing
      thereon), or of the authority of the person signing or presenting the same,
      and
      (v) may consult counsel satisfactory to it, including in-house counsel, and
      the
      opinion or advice of such counsel in any instance shall be full and complete
      authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted
      by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion or advice
      of
      such counsel. 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    b. The
      Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone for any action taken or omitted
      to be
      taken by it hereunder except in the case of the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence
      or willful misconduct in breach of the terms of this Make Good Agreement. In
      no
      event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for indirect, punitive, special or
      consequential damage or loss (including but not limited to lost profits)
      whatsoever, even if the Escrow Agent has been informed of the likelihood of
      such
      loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

     

    c. The
      Escrow Agent shall have no more or less responsibility or liability on account
      of any action or omission of any book-entry depository, securities intermediary
      or other subescrow agent employed by the Escrow Agent than any such book-entry
      depository, securities intermediary or other subescrow agent has to the Escrow
      Agent, except to the extent that such action or omission of any book-entry
      depository, securities intermediary or other subescrow agent was caused by
      the
      Escrow Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in breach of this Make
      Good Agreement.

     

    d. The
      Escrow Agent is hereby authorized, in making or disposing of any investment
      permitted by this Make Good Agreement, or in carrying out any sale of the Escrow
      Property permitted by this Make Good Agreement, to deal with itself (in its
      individual capacity) or with any one or more of its affiliates, whether it
      or
      such affiliate is acting as a subagent of the Escrow Agent or for any third
      person or dealing as principal for its own account.

     

    e. Notwithstanding
      any term appearing in this Make Good Agreement to the contrary, in no instance
      shall the Escrow Agent be required or obligated to distribute any Escrow
      Property (or take other action that may be called for hereunder to be taken
      by
      the Escrow Agent) sooner than two (2) Business Days after (i) it has received
      the applicable documents required under this Make Good Agreement in good form,
      or (ii) passage of the applicable time period (or both, as applicable under
      the
      terms of this Make Good Agreement), as the case may be.

     

    f. All
      payments to the Escrow Agent hereunder shall be in U.S. dollars.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    10.
      Compensation of Escrow Agent.

      Company hereby agrees to be the responsible party for payment of the Escrow
      Agent’s fees and expenses hereunder, including: (i) to pay or reimburse the
      Escrow Agent for its attorney’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with
      the enforcement of this Make Good Agreement, and (ii) to pay the Escrow Agent’s
      compensation for its normal services hereunder in accordance with the fee
      schedule attached hereto as Exhibit
      B
      and made
      a part hereof, which may be subject to change hereafter by the Escrow Agent
      on

    b. The
      Company agrees to reimburse the Escrow Agent on demand for all costs and
      expenses incurred in connection with the administration of this Make Good
      Agreement or the escrow created hereby or the performance or observance of
      its
      duties hereunder which are in excess of its compensation for normal services
      hereunder, including payment of any reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred
      by the Escrow Agent in connection with resolution of any claim by any party
      hereunder. 

     

    c. Each
      of
      the Company and the Make Good Pledgor covenant and agree, jointly and severally,
      to indemnify the Escrow Agent (and its directors, officers and employees) and
      hold it (and such directors, officers and employees) harmless from and against
      any loss, liability, damage, cost and expense of any nature incurred by the
      Escrow Agent arising out of or in connection with this Make Good Agreement
      or
      with the administration of its duties hereunder, including but not limited
      to
      attorney’s fees,
      tax
      liabilities (other than income tax liabilities associated with the Escrow
      Agent’s fees), any liabilities or damages that may result from any inaccuracy or
      misrepresentation made in any tax certification provided to the Escrow
      Agent,
      and any
      wrongly act of any such party,
      and
      other costs and expenses of defending or preparing to defend
      against any claim of liability unless and except to the extent such loss,
      liability, damage, cost and expense shall be caused by the Escrow Agent’s gross
      negligence, or willful misconduct. The foregoing indemnification and agreement
      to hold harmless shall survive the termination of this Make Good
      Agreement.

     

    11.
      Resignation of Escrow Agent.
      At any
      time, upon twenty (20) days' written notice to the Company, Escrow Agent may
      resign and be discharged from its duties as Escrow Agent hereunder. As soon
      as
      practicable after its resignation, Escrow Agent will promptly turn over to
      a
      successor escrow agent appointed by the Company the Escrow Shares held hereunder
      upon presentation of a document appointing the new escrow agent and evidencing
      its acceptance thereof. If, by the end of the 20-day period following the giving
      of notice of resignation by Escrow Agent, the Company shall have failed to
      appoint a successor escrow agent, a Majority of Investors shall entitled to
      appoint a successor escrow agent, or if no successor is named, the Escrow Agent
      may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor
      escrow agent.

     

    12.
      Dispute Resolution.
      It is
      understood and agreed that, should any dispute arise with respect to the
      delivery, ownership, right of possession, and/or disposition of the Escrow
      Property, or should any claim be made upon the Escrow Agent or the Escrow
      Property by a third party, the Escrow Agent upon receipt of notice of such
      dispute or claim is authorized and shall be entitled (at its sole option and
      election) to retain in its possession without liability to anyone, all or any
      of
      the Escrow Property until such dispute shall have been settled either by the
      mutual written agreement of the parties involved or by a final order, decree
      or
      judgment of a court in the United States of America, the time for perfection
      of
      an appeal of such order, decree or judgment having expired. The Escrow Agent
      may, but shall be under no duty whatsoever to, institute or defend any legal
      proceedings which relate to the Escrow Property.

      or
      venue, (ii) waives personal service of any summons, complaint, declaration
      or
      other process, and (iii) agrees that the service thereof may be made by
      certified or registered first-class mail directed to such party, as the case

    14.
      Waiver of Jury Trial. THE

    3.5 If
      for
      any or no reason whatsoever, the Escrow Agent does not receive written notice
      from the Company and the Required Investors relating to the release of either

      Compliance Period”)
      or
      (ii) CFO Holdback Escrow Amount on or prior to 90 calendar days following the
      Closing Date (the “CFO
      Compliance Period”)
      (each
      such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event,”
and
      for purposes of this Section the date such Event occurs being referred to as
      “Event
      Date”),
      then
      in addition to any other rights the Investors may have hereunder, under the
      Securities Purchase Agreement or under applicable law, on each such Event Date
      and on each monthly anniversary of such Event Date (if the applicable Event
      shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured,
      the
      Escrow Agent (on behalf of the Company) will deliver and pay to each Investor
      by
      wire transfer an amount in immediately available funds, as partial liquidated
      damages and not as a penalty, equal to 0.5% of the aggregate Investment Amount
      paid by such Investor for Shares pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement
      (“Partial
      Liquidated Damages”).
      The
      Partial Liquidated Damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily
      pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. In
      no
      event will the Company be liable for Partial Liquidated Damages under this
      Agreement in excess of 0.5% of the aggregate Investment Amount of the Investors
      in any 30-day period in respect of any single Event (it being understood that
      if
      the Company suffers an Event relating to its failure to comply with Section
      4.14(a) of the Securities Purchase Agreement and an Event relating to its
      failure to comply with Section 4.14(b) of the Securities Purchase Agreement
      in a
      30-day period it will be responsible for 1% of partial liquidated damages under
      this provision in a 30-day period). It is further understood that partial
      liquidated damages under this Agreement are limited to the Board Holdback Escrow
      Amount as to that Event and the CFO Holdback Escrow Amount as to that Event;
      provided that the Investors are entitled to all other remedies available under
      applicable law. On any Event Date, the Company will deliver to each Investor
      and
      the Escrow Agent a written notice which shall set forth the relevant Event.
      Schedule
      1
      attached
      hereto shall set forth the name, address, Investment Amount and delivery
      instructions for any partial liquidated damages contemplated hereby of each
      Investor.

     

    3.6 In
      the
      event that the Escrow Agent does not timely receive the written notice from
      the
      Company and the Required Investors in accordance with the terms hereof prior
      to
      the expiration of either of the Board Compliance Period and/or the CFO
      Compliance Period, as relevant, the Company hereby irrevocably directs the
      Escrow Agent to automatically, and without any action on the part of the parties
      hereto, disburse the partial liquidated damages applicable to any such Event
      to
      the Investors as contemplated herein until the earlier of (i) such time as
      all
      Escrowed Funds applicable to such Event have been disbursed to the Investors
      or
      (ii) such time as the Escrow Agent receives written notice from the Company
      and
      the Required Investors that the obligations of the Company under the Securities
      Purchase Agreement applicable to such Event have been adequately complied
      with.

    4.
       Investment
      of Funds.
      

     

    a. Investment
      Instructions.
      If the
      Escrow Agent shall have received specific written investment instruction from
      the Company (which shall include instruction as to term to maturity, if
      applicable), on a timely basis, the Escrow Agent shall invest the Escrow
      Property in Eligible Investments, pursuant to and as directed in such
      instruction.

     

    b. Definition
      of Eligible Investments.
      “Eligible Investments” shall mean (i) obligations issued or guaranteed by the
      United States of America or any agency or instrumentality thereof (provided
      that
      the full faith and credit of the United States is pledged in support thereof);
      (ii) repurchase obligations for underlying securities of the type described
      in
      clause (i); (iii) commercial paper at the time of the investment rated A-1
      by
      Standard & Poors Corporation or P-1 by Moody’s Investor Services, Inc.; (iv)
      shares of a money market fund investing only in underlying securities described
      in clauses (i) through (iii) above; (v) obligations (including certificates
      of
      deposit and banker’s acceptances) of any domestic commercial bank having capital
      and surplus in excess of $500,000,000; (vi) investment in the Escrow Agent’s
“Insured Money Market Account” (“IMMA”), as described in Annex A hereto. If
      otherwise qualified, obligations of the Escrow Agent or any of its affiliates
      shall qualify as Eligible Investments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Eligible
      Investments shall be limited to those instruments readily obtainable and
      routinely offered by the Escrow Agent’s Corporate Trust Services.

     

    c. Escrow
      Agent Not Responsible For Investment Decisions.
      Absent
      its timely receipt of such specific written investment instruction from the
      Company, the Escrow Agent shall have no obligation or duty to invest (or
      otherwise pay interest on) the Escrow Property; provided, however, that in
      the
      event the Escrow Agent shall not have received such written investment
      instruction, the Escrow Agent shall be authorized to invest any of the Escrow
      Property in the Escrow Agent’s “Insured
      Money Market Account” (“IMMA”) until
      such investment instruction is received. All earnings received from the
      investment of the Escrow Property shall be credited to, and shall become a
      part
      of, the Escrow (and any losses on such investments shall be debited to the
      Escrow Account). The Escrow Agent shall have no liability for any investment
      losses, including without limitation any market loss on any investment
      liquidated prior to maturity in order to make a payment required
      hereunder.

     

    d. Transaction
      Confirmations.
      The
      parties hereto acknowledge that, to the extent regulations of the Comptroller
      of
      the Currency, or other applicable regulatory entity, grant the parties the
      right
      to receive individual confirmations of security transactions at no additional
      cost, as they occur, the parties specifically waive receipt of such
      confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Escrow Agent will furnish
      the
      parties hereto with periodic cash transaction statements that include detail
      for
      all investment transactions made by the Escrow Agent hereunder.

    e. Tax
      Reporting.
      The
      Interested Parties agree that, for tax reporting purposes, the Company shall
      be
      treated as the owner of the Escrow Fund, in accordance with Proposed Treasury
      Regulations §1.468B-8 for federal and state tax purposes while it is held by the
      Escrow Agent, and the Escrow Agent shall, for each calendar year (or portion
      thereof) for which the Escrow Fund is so held report the interest earned on
      the
      Escrow Amount on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099 and corresponding state
      income tax forms in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

     

    The
      Interested Parties agree that, for tax reporting purposes, any distribution
      from
      the Escrow Fund to the Investors shall be reportable as a return of investment
      and will be reported on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099B for the tax year
      in
      which the distribution is made. 

     

    f. Certification
      of Taxpayer Identification Number.
      Each of
      the Interested Parties hereto agrees to provide the Escrow Agent with a
      certified tax identification number by signing and returning a Form W-9 (or
      Form
      W-8 BEN, in case of non-U.S. persons) to the Escrow Agent upon the execution
      and
      delivery of this Agreement. The Interested Parties understand that, in the
      event
      their tax identification numbers are not certified to the Escrow Agent, the
      Internal Revenue Code, as amended from time to time, may require withholding
      of
      a portion of any interest or other income earned on the investment of the Escrow
      Property.
      Each of
      the Interested Parties agrees
      to
      instruct the Escrow Agent in writing with respect to the Escrow Agent’s
      responsibility for withholding and other taxes, assessments or other
      governmental charges, and to instruct the Escrow Agent with respect to any
      certifications and governmental reporting that may be required under any laws
      or
      regulations that may be applicable in connection with its acting as Escrow
      Agent
      under this Agreement.

     

    5. Concerning
      the Escrow Agent.
      Each
      Interested Party acknowledges and agrees that the Escrow Agent (i) shall not
      be
      responsible for any of the agreements referred to or described herein (including
      without limitation the Securities Purchase Agreement), or for determining or
      compelling compliance therewith, and shall not otherwise be bound thereby,
      (ii)
      shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are expressly
      and
      specifically set forth in this Agreement on its part to be performed, each
      of
      which is ministerial (and shall not be construed to be fiduciary) in nature,
      and
      no implied duties or obligations of any kind shall be read into this Agreement
      against or on the part of the Escrow Agent, (iii) shall not be obligated to
      take
      any legal or other action hereunder which might in its judgment involve or
      cause
      it to incur any expense or liability unless it shall have been furnished with
      acceptable indemnification, (iv) may rely on and shall be protected in acting
      or
      refraining from acting upon any written notice, instruction (including, without
      limitation, wire transfer instructions, whether incorporated herein or provided
      in a separate written instruction), instrument, statement, certificate, request
      or other document furnished to it hereunder and believed by it to be genuine
      and
      to have been signed or presented by the proper person, and shall have no
      responsibility or duty to make inquiry as to or to determine the genuineness,
      accuracy or validity thereof (or any signature appearing thereon), or of the
      authority of the person signing or presenting the same, and (v) may consult
      counsel satisfactory to it, including in-house counsel, and the opinion or
      advice of such counsel in any instance shall be full and complete authorization
      and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it
      hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion or advice of such
      counsel. 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        6

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    The
      Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone for any action taken or omitted
      to be
      taken by it hereunder except in the case of the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence
      or willful misconduct in breach of the terms of this Agreement. In no event
      shall the Escrow Agent be liable for indirect, punitive, special or
      consequential damage or loss (including but not limited to lost profits)
      whatsoever, even if the Escrow Agent has been informed of the likelihood of
      such
      loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

     

    The
      Escrow Agent shall have no more or less responsibility or liability on account
      of any action or omission of any book-entry depository, securities intermediary
      or other subescrow agent employed by the Escrow Agent than any such book-entry
      depository, securities intermediary or other subescrow agent has to the Escrow
      Agent, except to the extent that such action or omission of any book-entry
      depository, securities intermediary or other subescrow agent was caused by
      the
      Escrow Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in breach of this
      Agreement.

     

    The
      Escrow Agent is hereby authorized, in making or disposing of any investment
      permitted by this Agreement, to deal with itself (in its individual capacity)
      or
      with any one or more of its affiliates, whether it or such affiliate is acting
      as a subagent of the Escrow Agent or for any third person or dealing as
      principal for its own account.

     

    Notwithstanding
      any term appearing in this Agreement to the contrary, in no instance shall
      the
      Escrow Agent be required or obligated to distribute any Escrow Property (or
      take
      other action that may be called for hereunder to be taken by the Escrow Agent)
      sooner than two (2) Business Days after (i) it has received the applicable
      documents required under this Agreement in good form, or (ii) passage of the
      applicable time period (or both, as applicable under the terms of this
      Agreement), as the case may be.

     

    Unless
      and except to the extent otherwise expressly set forth herein, all deposits
      and
      payments hereunder, or pursuant to the terms hereof (including without
      limitation all payments to the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 6,
      shall be
      in U.S. dollars.

     

    6. Compensation,

    The
      Company hereby agrees to be the responsible party for payment of the Escrow
      Agent’s fees and expenses hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the
      Interested Parties agrees, jointly and severally (i) to pay or reimburse the
      Escrow Agent for its attorney’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with
      the preparation of this Agreement and (ii) to pay the Escrow Agent’s
      compensation for its normal services hereunder in accordance with the fee
      schedule attached hereto as Exhibit
      B
      and made
      a part hereof, which may be subject to change hereafter by the Escrow Agent
      on
      an annual basis.

    The
      Company hereby agrees to reimburse the Escrow Agent on demand for all costs
      and
      expenses incurred in connection with the administration of this Agreement or
      the
      escrow created hereby or the performance or observance of its duties hereunder
      which are in excess of its compensation for normal services hereunder, including
      without limitation, payment of any legal fees and expenses incurred by the
      Escrow Agent in connection with resolution of any claim by any party
      hereunder.

      officers and employees) and hold it (and such directors, officers and employees)
      harmless from and against any loss, liability, damage, cost and expense of
      any
      nature incurred by the Escrow Agent arising out of or in connection with this
      Agreement or with the administration of its duties hereunder, including but
      not
      limited to attorney’s fees,
      tax
      liabilities (other than income tax liabilities associated with the Escrow
      Agent’s fees), any liabilities or damages that may result from any inaccuracy or
      misrepresentation made in any tax certification provided to the Escrow
      Agent,
      and
      other costs and expenses of defending or preparing to defend against any claim
      of liability unless and except to the extent such loss, liability, damage,
      cost
      and expense shall be caused by the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence, or willful
      misconduct. The foregoing indemnification and agreement to hold harmless shall
      survive the termination of this Agreement.

     

    7. Resignation.
      The
      Escrow Agent may at any time resign as Escrow Agent hereunder by giving thirty
      (30) days’ prior written notice of resignation to the Company and the Investors.
      Prior to the effective date of the resignation as specified in such notice,
      the
      Company will issue to the Escrow Agent a written instruction authorizing
      redelivery of the Escrow Property to a bank or trust company that it selects
      as
      successor to the Escrow Agent hereunder subject to the consent of the Investors
      (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If, however,
      the
      Company and Investors shall fail to select and consent to such a successor
      escrow agent within twenty (20) days after the notice of resignation from the
      Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to name such successor escrow
      agent, or the Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for
      appointment of a successor escrow agent.

     

    8. Dispute
      Resolution.
      It is
      understood and agreed that, should any dispute arise with respect to the
      delivery, ownership, right of possession, and/or disposition of the Escrow
      Property, or should any claim be made upon the Escrow Agent or the Escrow
      Property by a third party, the Escrow Agent upon receipt of notice of such
      dispute or claim is authorized and shall be entitled (at its sole option and
      election) to retain in its possession without liability to anyone, all or any
      of
      the Escrow Property until such dispute shall have been settled either by the
      mutual written agreement of the parties involved or by a final order, decree
      or
      judgment of a court in the United States of America, the time for perfection
      of
      an appeal of such order, decree or judgment having expired. The Escrow Agent
      may, but shall be under no duty whatsoever to, institute or defend any legal
      proceedings which relate to the Escrow Property.

    9. Consent
      to Jurisdiction and Service.
      Each of
      the Interested Parties hereby absolutely and irrevocably consents and submits
      to
      the jurisdiction of the courts in the State of Connecticut and of any Federal
      court located in said state in connection with any actions or proceedings
      brought against the Interested Parties (or any of them) by the Escrow Agent
      arising out of or relating to this Escrow Agreement. In any such action or
      proceeding, the Interested Parties each hereby absolutely and irrevocably (i)
      waives any objection to jurisdiction or venue, (ii) waives personal service
      of
      any summons, complaint, declaration or other process, and (iii) agrees that
      the
      service thereof may be made by certified or registered first-class mail directed
      to such party, as the case may be, at their respective addresses in accordance
      with Section 12 hereof.

     

    10. Waiver
      of Jury Trial.
      THE
      ESCROW AGENT AND THE INTERESTED PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY
      AND
      ALL ISSUES ARISING IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BETWEEN THEM OR THEIR SUCCESSORS
      OR ASSIGNS, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF ITS PROVISIONS
      OR ANY NEGOTIATIONS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH.

     

    11. Force
      Majeure.
      The
      Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for delays or failures in performance
      resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but not be
      limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics,
      governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line
      failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other

    13. Miscellaneous.
      

     

    a. Binding
      Effect; Successors.
      This
      Agreement shall be binding upon the respective parties hereto and their heirs,
      executors, successors and assigns. If the Escrow Agent consolidates, merges
      or
      converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust
      business (including the escrow contemplated by this Agreement) to, another
      corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the
      successor Escrow Agent.

     

    b. Modifications.
      This
      Agreement may not be altered or modified without the express written consent
      of
      the parties hereto. No course of conduct shall constitute a waiver of any of
      the
      terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement, unless such waiver is specified
      in writing, and then only to the extent so specified. A waiver of any of the
      terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement on one occasion shall not
      constitute a waiver of the other terms of this Escrow Agreement, or of such
      terms and conditions on any other occasion. Notwithstanding any other provision
      hereof, consent to an alteration or modification of this Agreement may not
      be
      signed by means of an e-mail address. 

     

    c. Governing
      Law.
      THIS
      ESCROW AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
      INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

     

    d. Reproduction
      of Documents.
      This
      Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation,
      (a)
      consents, waivers and modifications which may hereafter be executed, and (b)
      certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished, may be
      reproduced by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, optical disk,
      micro-card, miniature photographic or other similar process. The parties agree
      that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original
      itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding, whether or not the original
      is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by a party in
      the
      regular course of business, and that any enlargement, facsimile or further
      reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in
      evidence.

     

    e. Counterparts
      and Facsimile Execution.
      This
      Escrow Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall
      be
      deemed to be one and the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this
      Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile transmission shall constitute
      effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the parties and may
      be
      used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the
      parties transmitted by facsimile shall be deemed to be their original signatures
      for all purposes.
