        TERMS OF THE ESCROW

        

        1.1     The parties hereby agree to have the law firm of Foley & Lardner LLP act as Escrow Agent whereby the Escrow Agent shall receive the Funds in escrow and distribute the same as set forth in this Agreement. Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Purchase
        Agreement, and the documents related thereto, with this Agreement being an exhibit to such Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”).

        

        1.2     Upon the execution of this Agreement, the Company and Investor shall deliver the executed Transaction Documents to the Escrow Agent as of the date of this Agreement and Investor shall wire the Funds to the Escrow Agent according to wire instructions to be provided by the Escrow Agent to
        Investor. The Escrow Agent shall thereafter hold the Funds and the Transaction Documents until the Company has caused its transfer agent to issue and deliver to the Investor the stock certificate evidencing the Shares pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement. Upon the delivery to the Investor by the Company’s transfer agent of the stock certificate evidencing the Shares, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly release the Funds to the Company, and the Escrow Agent shall also
        deliver the Transaction Documents to each of the Company and Investor. In the event the Company does not cause its transfer agent to issue and deliver to the Investor the stock certificate evidencing the Shares pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, then the Escrow Agent shall return the Funds to Investor by wire transfer according to instructions received in writing by the Escrow Agent from Investor, and the Escrow Agent shall destroy the Transaction Documents.

        
            

        

        EXECUTION COPY

        

        1.3     Upon the completion by the Escrow Agent of its obligations under Section 1.2, this Agreement shall terminate and the Escrow Agent shall have no further liability hereunder.

        

        1.4     This Agreement may be altered or amended only with the written consent of all of the parties hereto. In the event the Company or Investor attempts to change this Agreement in a manner, which, in the Escrow Agent’s discretion, shall be undesirable, the Escrow Agent may resign as Escrow
        Agent by notifying the Company and Investor in writing. In the case of the Escrow Agent’s resignation, the only duty of the Escrow Agent, until receipt of a joint written notice from the Company and Investor (the “Transfer Instructions”) that a successor escrow agent has been appointed, shall be to hold and preserve the Funds and the Transaction Documents that are in its possession. Upon receipt by the Escrow Agent of said notice from the Company and Investor of the
        appointment of a successor escrow agent, the name of a successor escrow account and a direction to transfer the Funds to such successor escrow account to be thereafter held by such successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall promptly thereafter transfer the Funds and deliver the Transaction Documents to said successor escrow agent. Immediately after said transfer of the Funds and delivery of the Transaction Documents to said successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall furnish the
        Company and Investor with proof of such transfer. The Escrow Agent is authorized to disregard any notices, requests, instructions or demands received by it from the Company and Investor after notice of resignation has been given, except only for the Transfer Instructions.

        

             1.5     The Escrow Agent shall be reimbursed by the Company for any reasonable expenses incurred in the event there is a conflict between the parties and the Escrow Agent shall deem it necessary to retain counsel, upon whose advice the Escrow Agent may rely. The Escrow
        Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by the Escrow Agent in good faith and in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable or responsible except for the Escrow Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Escrow Agent has made no representations or warranties to the Company or Investor in connection with this transaction. The Escrow Agent has no liability hereunder to either party other than to hold the Funds received from Investor and to deliver the
        Funds under the terms hereof. The Company and Investor each agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from and with respect to any suits, claims, actions or liabilities arising in any way out of this transaction, including the obligation to defend any legal action brought which in any way arises out of or is related to this Agreement and/or the Purchase Agreement. The parties each and all acknowledge and recognize that the Escrow Agent has also served and shall continue to
        serve as the legal counsel to the Company and the parties each and all waive any claim of any conflict of interest as a result thereof.

        EXECUTION COPY

        1.6     The Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth herein and may rely and shall be protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to have been signed or presented
        by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall not be personally liable for any act the Escrow Agent may do or omit to do hereunder as the Escrow Agent while acting in good faith, and any act done or omitted by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the advice of the Escrow Agent's attorneys-at-law shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith.

        

        1.7     The Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized to disregard any and all warnings or orders given by any of the parties hereto or by any other person or corporation, excepting only the Transfer Instructions and/or orders or process of courts of law and is hereby expressly authorized to
        comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any court. In case the Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such order, judgment or decree, including but not limited to the Transfer Instructions, then the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person, firm or corporation by reason of such decree or orders being subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have been entered without jurisdiction.

        

        1.8     The Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authorities or rights of the parties executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver the Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for hereunder.

        

        1.9     If the Escrow Agent reasonably requires other or further documents in connection with this Agreement, the necessary parties hereto shall join in furnishing such documents.

        

        1.10     It is understood and agreed that should any dispute arise with respect to the delivery and/or ownership or right of possession of the Funds and/or the Transaction Documents held by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent is authorized and directed in the Escrow Agent's sole discretion
        (a) to retain the Funds and the Transaction Documents in the Escrow Agent's possession, without liability to anyone, until such disputes shall have been settled either by mutual written agreement of the parties concerned or by a final order, decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction after the time for appeal has expired and no appeal has been perfected, but the Escrow Agent shall be under no duty whatsoever to institute or defend any such proceedings or (b) to deliver the
        Funds and the Transaction Documents held by the Escrow Agent hereunder to a state or federal court having competent subject matter jurisdiction and located in the District of Columbia in accordance with the applicable procedure therefor.
