      2.                 Appointment

of Performance: Disbursement Into Court.  If at any time,
there shall exist any dispute between the Company and the Buyer with respect to
holding or disposition of any portion of the Escrow Funds or any other
obligations of the Escrow Agent hereunder, or if at any time the Escrow Agent is

disposition of any portion of the Escrow Funds or the Escrow Agent’s proper
actions with respect to its obligations hereunder, or if the parties have not
within thirty (30) calendar days of the furnishing by the Escrow Agent of a
notice of resignation pursuant to Section 9 hereof, appointed a successor escrow
agent to act hereunder, then the Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, take
either or both of the following actions:

       

      a.      suspend
the performance of any of its obligations (including, without limitation, any
disbursement obligations) under this Escrow Agreement until such dispute or
uncertainty shall be resolved to the sole satisfaction of the Escrow Agent or
until a successor escrow agent shall be appointed (as the case may be); provided

meantime; and/or

       

      b.      petition
(by means of an interpleader action or any other appropriate method) any court
of competent jurisdiction in any venue convenient to the Escrow Agent, for
instructions with respect to such dispute or uncertainty, and to the extent
required by law, pay into such court, for holding and disposition in accordance
with the instructions of such court, all funds held by it in the Escrow Funds,
after deduction and payment to the Escrow Agent of all fees and expenses
(including court costs and attorneys’ fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected
to be incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with performance of its duties
and the exercise of its rights hereunder.

       

      c.      The
Escrow Agent shall have no liability to the Company, the Buyer, or any person
with respect to any such suspension of performance or disbursement into court,
specifically including any liability or claimed liability that may arise, or be
alleged to have arisen, out of or as a result of any delay in the disbursement
of funds held in the Escrow Funds or any delay in with respect to any other
action required or requested of the Escrow Agent.

       

      8.                 [Reserved]

       

      9.                 Resignation
and Removal of Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent
may resign from the performance of its duties hereunder at any time by giving
thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice to the parties or may be
removed, with or without cause, by the parties, acting jointly, by furnishing a
Joint Written Direction to the Escrow Agent, at any time by the giving of ten
(10) calendar days’ prior written notice to Escrow Agent as provided herein
below.  Upon any such notice of resignation or removal, the
representatives of the Buyer and the Company identified in Sections 13(a)(iv)
and 13(b)(iv), below, jointly shall appoint a successor escrow agent hereunder,
which shall be a commercial bank, trust company or other financial institution
with a combined capital and surplus in excess of
US$10,000,000.00.  Upon the acceptance in writing of any appointment
of the Escrow Agent hereunder by a successor escrow

       

      
        
           

        

        
           

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

       agent, such successor escrow agent shall thereupon succeed to and
become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Escrow Agent, and the retiring Escrow Agent shall be discharged from its duties
and obligations under this Agreement, but shall not be discharged from any
liability for actions taken as Escrow Agent hereunder prior to such
succession.  After any retiring Escrow Agent’s resignation or removal,
the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Escrow Agent under this
Agreement.  The retiring Escrow Agent shall transmit all records
pertaining to the Escrow Funds and shall pay all funds held by it in the Escrow
Funds to the successor escrow agent, after making copies of such records as the
retiring Escrow Agent deems advisable and after deduction and payment to the
retiring Escrow Agent of all fees and expenses (including court costs and
attorneys’ fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be incurred by the
retiring Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and the
exercise of its rights hereunder.

       

      10.                 Liability
of Escrow Agent.

       

      a.      The
Escrow Agent shall have no liability or obligation with respect to the Escrow
Funds except for the Escrow Agent’s willful misconduct or gross
negligence.  The Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility shall be for the
acceptance, holding and disbursement of the Escrow Funds in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.  The Escrow Agent shall have no implied
duties or obligations and shall not be charged with knowledge or notice or any
fact or circumstance not specifically set forth herein.  The Escrow
Agent may rely upon any instrument, not only as to its due execution, validity
and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information
contained herein, which the Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be
genuine, to have been signed or presented by the person or parties purporting to
sign the same and conform to the provisions of this Agreement.  In no
event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for incidental, indirect, special, and
consequential or punitive damages.  The Escrow Agent shall not be
obligated to take any legal action or commence any proceeding in connection with
the Escrow Funds, any account in which Escrow Funds are deposited, this
Agreement or the Securities Purchase Agreement, or to appear in, prosecute or
defend any such legal action or proceeding.  The Escrow Agent may
consult legal counsel selected by it in any event of any dispute or question as
to construction of any of the provisions hereof or of any other agreement or its
duties hereunder, or relating to any dispute involving any party hereto, and
shall incur no liability and shall be fully indemnified from any liability
whatsoever in acting in accordance with the opinion or instructions of such
counsel.  The Company and the Buyer jointly and severally shall
promptly pay, upon demand, the actual fees and expenses incurred of any such
counsel.

       

      b.      The
Escrow Agent is hereby authorized, in its sole discretion, to comply with orders
issued or process entered by any court with respect to the Escrow Funds, without
determination by the Escrow Agent of such court’s jurisdiction in the
matter.  If any portion of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached,
garnished or levied upon under any court order, or in case the payment,
assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be
stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in any case any order judgment or
decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part
thereof, then and in any such event, the Escrow Agent is authorized, in its sole
discretion, to rely upon and comply with any such order, writ judgment or decree
which it is advised by legal counsel selected by it, binding upon it, without
the need for appeal or other action; and if the Escrow Agent complies with any
such order, writ, judgment or decree, it shall not be liable to any of the
parties hereto or to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance
even though such order, writ judgment or decree may be subsequently reversed,
modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

       

      
        
           

        

        
           

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

       

      11.                 Indemnification
of Escrow Agent.  From and at all
times after the date of this Agreement, the Company and the Buyer jointly and
severally, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law and to the extent
provided herein, indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent and each partner,
associate, director, officer, employee, attorney, agent and affiliate of the
Escrow Agent (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”)
against any and all actions, claims (whether or not valid), losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including
without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and expenses) incurred by
or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties from and after the date
hereof, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising
from or in any way relating to any claim, demand, suit, action, or proceeding
(including any inquiry or investigation) by any person, including without
limitation the parties to this Agreement, whether threatened or initiated,
asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any person under any
statute or regulation, including, but not limited to, any federal or state
securities laws, or under any common law or equitable cause or otherwise,
arising from or in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution,
performance or failure of performance of this Agreement or any transaction
contemplated herein, whether or not any such Indemnified Party is a party to any
such action or proceeding, suit or the target of any such inquiry or
investigation; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall have the right
to be indemnified hereunder for liability finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction, subject to no further appeal, to have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.  If
