         5.1      Pure  warrants  that (1) the  media on which the  Software  is
                  furnished under normal use will be free from defects;  and (2)
                  if installed on equipment as provided on Schedule "1" and used
                  in  accordance  with  Pure's and such other  vendor's  express
                  instructions,  the Software will  substantially  perform those
                  functions  described in Pure's  documentation for the Software
                  for ninety (90) days from the date of delivery of the Software
                  to the Licensee by Pure.

         5.2      The  licensee  must notify Pure of any defects in the media or
                  Software by giving written notice to Pure.

         5.3      Other than the specific  warranties  provided above,  Software
                  and  accompanying  materials  are  provided  "as  is"  without
                  warranty  of  any  kind,  either  expressed  or  implied.  The
                  complete  risk  as to  the  quality  and  performance  of  the
                  software  is with the  licensee.  Pure  makes no  warranty  or
                  representation  that the  functions  contained in the software
                  will meet the Licensee's  requirements  or that the operations
                  of the Software  will be  uninterrupted  or error free or that
                  any software defects are correctable. The foregoing warranties
                  are in lieu of all  other  warranties  expressed  or  implied,
                  including  but not  limited  to,  the  implied  warranties  of
                  merchantability  and fitness for a particular purpose. No oral
                  or written  information  or advice given by pure, its dealers,
                  distributors, agents or employees shall create a warranty that
                  in any way increases the scope of this limited  warranty.  The
                  duration  of any  implied  warranty  shall be  limited  to the
                  duration of the limited warranties set forth herein.

         5.4      Neither  Pure  nor  the  Software   provide  any  professional
                  engineering services to the Licensee, the Owner/Manager of the
                  site, or its agents.

         5.5      The SoundPrint(R)  monitoring Software,  together with certain
                  hardware and equipment ("System") if properly installed at the
                  site and if properly  used and during such times as the System
                  is available  detects  certain  energy  transmissions  through
                  concrete or steel.  Most wire breaks  generate at least enough
                  energy to be  recorded  by the  System.  If wire breaks do not
                  exhibit  certain  properties  they  may  not  be  detected  or
                  recorded  by the  System.  Construction  activities  and other
                  continuous  noise  generation  may affect  the  ability of the
                  System to detect and/or classify events. Sufficient background
                  or other  noise  may mask  wire  breaks so dud they can not be
                  detected or recorded by the System.

         5.6      The  Data  recorded  by  the  System  must  be  monitored  and
                  processed  to  provide  meaningful  information  to  the  Site
                  Manager/Owner. In general events which the Software is able to
                  record are  classified  as either:  (a) a probable wire break,
                  (b) a possible  wire break,  or another  event.  The  Licensee
                  and/or the  Manager/Owner's  engineering or other advisors may
                  use  the  information  presented  by the  Software  to seek to
                  investigate  the  events  recorded  by the  System.  Where the
                  Licensee or the Owner/Manager

                                       12

                  remotely  monitors the System the Licensee is  responsible  to
                  make arrangements for the secure and reliable  transmission of
                  all Data.

         5.7      The Licensee should exercise reasonable judgment in the use of
                  the   software   and   accompanying   materials.    Under   no
                  circumstances does Pure suggest, represent or warrant that the
                  use of the Software or accompanying materials will lead to any
                  specific result,  consequence or situation for the licensee or
                  is a substitute for use of other physical structural integrity
                  methods or  inspections.  The  Software  requires  Licensee to
                  exercise prudent and reasonable judgement in interpretation of
                  the results of the  Software.  The Licensee  shall not release
                  any final reports  without giving Pure a prior  opportunity to
                  review and approve such reports.

         5.8      The Licensee is responsible to make its own arrangements  with
                  the  Owner/Manager  in respect of  reporting on the results of
                  monitoring the Site and payment for those services.

                  person  for any  direct,  special,  indirect,  incidental,  or
                  consequential damages arising under or out of the provision of
                  services hereunder or any act or omission related thereto even
                  if the Escrow Agent was previously  advised of the possibility
                  of such damages,  or for any other claim by the parties hereto
                  or by any other person.

         2.11     The  Escrow  Agent  or  any   successor  to  it  appointed  in
                  accordance  with this Escrow  Agreement may resign at any time
                  by giving  notice of such  resignation  in writing to Licensee
                  and Pure. In the event of such resignation,  Licensee and Pure
                  shall  agree  upon  and  appoint  a  successor  escrow  agent,
                  provided  however,  that if no  successor  to Escrow Agent has
                  been  appointed  after ten (10) business days after receipt of
                  the Escrow  Agent's  notice of  resignation,  the Escrow Agent
                  shall  appoint its own escrow  agent.  Any successor to Escrow
                  Agent shall deliver to Licensee and Pure a written  instrument
                  accepting such  appointment  and thereupon it shall succeed to
                  all the rights and duties of the Escrow  Agent  hereunder  and
                  shall be entitled to receive the  Escrowed  Materials  held by
                  the  predecessor  Escrow  Agent  and  shall  be  deemed  to be
                  included  willful the definition of "Escrow  Agent"  hereunder
                  for all purposes.  Upon receipt of such written instrument the
                  predecessor  Escrow  Agent shall be  discharged  of its duties
                  hereunder  and  released  from  any   liabilities   whatsoever
                  hereunder.

                                  VERIFICATION

         3.01     At any time,  Licensee  may  request  Pure to verify  that the
                  Escrowed  Materials  correspond to the Licensed  Program w the
                  form  then  being  used  by Pure  and  licensed  to  Licensee.
                  Licensee  shall request such  verification  by sending  thirty
                  (30) days  prior  written  notice to both Pure and the  Escrow
                  Agent  specifying  the date and time (on normal  business days
                  and  during  normal   business  hours)  when  it  desires  the
                  verification to be conducted  together with a certified cheque
                  in the amount of  $2,000.00  payable to the Escrow  Agent as a
                  deposit to be applied to the Licensee's  obligation to pay for
                  the  Escrow  Agent's  time  assisting  with  the  verification
                  procedure and prepaid airline  tickets if the  verification is
                  to be done in a city  other  than  the  city of  Calgary.  The
                  Licensee  shall be  responsible,  at its cost, for arranging a
                  location for the  verification  and availability of a suitable
                  computer on which to carry out the verification.

         3.02     At the date  and  time  specified  in the  notice,  and at the
                  location of the computer upon which the  verification is to be
                  conducted, the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrow Materials
                  in its  possession  to die joint  possession  of both Pure and
                  Licensee. The Escrow Agent shall have, as between the parties,
                  priority to  possession of the Escrowed  Materials  during and
                  after such  verification and the right to demand the immediate
                  return of the  Escrowed  Materials  at any time.  Licensee and
                  Pure shall return the  Escrowed  Materials to the Escrow Agent
                  immediately upon demand from the Escrow Agent. In the presence
                  of Pure and the Escrow Agent,  Licensee  shall perform or have
                  performed such series of tests and verification  procedures as
                  it may  reasonably  require to enable it to determine that the
                  Escrowed  Materials  correspond to the system in the form then
                  in use by Pure and licensed to Licensee.  Such verification is
                  to take place on a computer capable of using Pure's system, in
                  the  control  of Pure or,  at the  option  of  Licensee,  on a
                  computer in the control of Licensee.  Upon  completion  of the
                  verification,  Licensee shall mark as "verified" all copies of
                  the Escrowed Materials which it may have determined correspond
                  to the system in the form then in use by Pure and  licensed to
                  Licensee,  and shall return all such Escrowed Materials to the
                  Escrow  Agent and shall ensure that all copies of the Escrowed
                  Materials  which were  created  pursuant  to the  verification
                  process  are  purged  from  magnetic  or other  media  and the
                  computer  equipment  on which the  verification  process  took
                  place.  Licensee  shall pay all of the  expenses of the Escrow
                  Agent  incurred as a result of its  request  for  verification
                  except as set forth in section 3.03 below.

         3.03     If Licensee  discovers  through the verification  process that
                  the Escrowed  Materials do not constitute a copy of the Source
                  Code or Updated  Source  Code for the  Licensed  Program  then
                  being used by Pure and licensed to Licensee, Licensee shall so
                  notify Pure and the Escrow Agent in writing and Pure shall pay
                  all of the expenses of the Escrow  Agent  incurred as a result
                  of the verification.  Within five (5) business days after such
                  notice,  Pure will  deliver a  complete  copy of the  Escrowed
                  Materials to the Escrow Agent and the verification process set
                  out in

<PAGE>

                  this  Article III shall be  repeated at Pure's cost until,  in
                  the reasonable opinion of the Licensee, the Escrowed Materials
                  are verified and in order.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                               TERMS OF AGREEMENT

                  Escrow  Agreement is terminated in accordance with its express
                  terms.

                           fact  of  such  deposit  or  the  involvement  in any
                           proceeding;  such fees  hereunder  payable within ten
                           (10) days of any such  request  or work of the Escrow
                           Agent;

                  (d)      $200.00 per cubic foot of  additional  storage  space

                           Licensee  each time the Escrow  Agent is  required to

                           Article III hereof and subject to the  provision of a
                           deposit as required in Article III hereof; and

                  (f)      Pure  and  Licensee   shall   jointly  and  severally
                           indemnify  and  save  harmless  the  Escrow  Agent in

<PAGE>

                           expenses, and charges incurred by the Escrow Agent in
                           the  performance of its duties  hereunder  including,
                           without  limitation,  payment  of all legal  fees for
                           counsel  appointed  to  advise  the  Escrow  Agent in
                           respect of any matter under this Agreement.

         5.02     Upon each  anniversary  date of the  Escrow  Agreement,  on at
                  least two (2) months prior  written  notice,  the Escrow Agent
                  may  increase  any or all of  the  charges  payable  hereunder
                  during the next twelve  (12) month  period  provided  that the
                  maximum increase shall not in each case exceed $100.00.  In no
                  event however,  shall charges  hereunder  exceed the published
                  standard  list prices for such services  generally  charged by

                  or advice  respecting  any act or  eligibility  of the  Escrow
                  Agent  hereunder  for time spent in  preparation  or providing
                  assistance in  verification or in providing any services under

                                   ARTICLE VI
                         RELEASE OF ESCROWED MATERIALS

         6.01     Upon the receipt of written  notice from  Licensee and subject
                  to the  provisions  of this  Article  VI, the Escrow  Agent is
                  hereby  authorized  and  directed  by  Licensee  and  Pure  to
                  distribute  the  Escrowed  Materials in  accordance  with such
                  written notice from Licensee.

         6.02     Licensee may at any time require by prior written  notice (the
                  "Request")  to Pure and the Escrow Agent that the Escrow Agent
                  deliver to the Licensee and Pure all Escrowed  Materials  then
                  on deposit with the Escrow  Agent.  Such request shall set out
                  why Licensee  reasonably  considers  that a Release  Event has
                  occurred.  Within fifteen (15) days  thereafter,  Escrow Agent
                  shall deliver to Licensee all of the Escrowed  Materials  then
                  on deposit unless during such fifteen (15) day period either

                  (a)      Licensee  withdraws  its Request for delivery of such
                           Escrowed Materials; or

<PAGE>

                  (b)      Pure  disputes the release of the Escrowed  Materials
                           by sending a written notice (the "Dispute Notice") to
                           both  Licensee  and the  Escrow  Agent.  The  Dispute
                           Notice  shall set out why Pure  reasonably  considers
                           that a Release Event has not occurred.

         6.03     Upon receipt of the Dispute Notice,  Licensee may withdraw its
                  request.  In the event that  Licensee  does not  withdraw  its
                  request  and Pure  continues  to  dispute  the  release of the
                  Escrowed  Materials within such fifteen (15) day period,  then
                  the Escrow  Agent shall  notify  Pure and  Licensee in writing
                  that the dispute is to be settled by binding  arbitration (the
                  "Notice of Arbitration") as set out in this Agreement.

         6.04     Within five (5) days of receipt  from the Escrow  Agent of the
                  Notice of Arbitration, Licensee and Pure, will each appoint an
                  arbitrator and notify the other party of their choice.  In the
                  event  the  only  one  (1) of  Pure or  Licensee  appoints  an
                  arbitrator in that period,  then that  arbitrator  will be the
                  sole  arbitrator  and his  decision  will be  binding  on both
                  parties.  In the event  neither  party  appoints an arbitrator
                  within said five (5) days then the period for  appointment  is
                  extended in three (3) day intervals,  until either one or both
                  parties  has  appointed  an  arbitrator  In the event  that an
                  arbitrator  is  appointed  by both  parties  within  the  time
                  allowed,  then within three (3) days of the appointment of the
                  second  arbitrator,  the arbitrators  will together  appoint a
                  third   arbitrator,   or,  failing   agreement  on  the  third
                  arbitrator,  either  Licensee  or Pure may apply to a court of
                  competent  jurisdiction for appointment of a third arbitrator.
                  Within  five  (5) days of the  appointment  of all  three  (3)
                  arbitrators  or  of  appointment  of  a  sole   arbitrator  as
                  contemplated  in this section 6.04,  each of Licensee and Pure
                  shall  have  the  right to  present  one day of  evidence  and
                  argument to the arbitrator or arbitrators,  as applicable, who
                  shall hear such  evidence  within  five (5) days  after  their
                  appointment.  The  arbitrator or  arbitrators,  as applicable,
                  shall decide whether or not the Escrowed  Materials  should be
                  released to Licensee and when the Escrowed Materials should be
                  released. The decision of the one arbitrator,  if only one (1)
                  is  appointed,  or two (2) of the  three (3)  arbitrators,  if
                  three (3) are appointed,  is binding on all parties, and shall
                  be rendered within five (5) business days of the conclusion of
                  the arbitration. The Escrow Agent shall abide by the decisions
                  of such majority or sole arbitrator.

         6.05     The  unsuccessful  party to the  arbitration,  whether Pure or
                  Licensee,  shall pay all the costs of the  arbitration as well
                  as the fees of the arbitrator(s).

         6.06     In all other respects,  the  arbitration  shall be governed by
                  the laws of the Province of Alberta.

         6.07     Time shall be of the essence in carrying out this  arbitration
                  procedure.  All  references  to days in this  Article VI shall
                  mean normal business days.

                      TERMINATION OF THE ESCROW AGREEMENT

         7.01     This Escrow  Agreement  may be terminated by Licensee and Pure
                  jointly  by  sending  the  Escrow  Agent ten (10)  days  prior
                  written notice of termination.

         7.02     If the Escrow Agent receives written notice from both Pure and
                  Licensee that this Escrow Agreement is to be terminated,  then

                  Licensor.  Licensee agrees to correct any  deficiencies  which
                  are brought to Licensee's attention by

                  services,  which in the reasonable  opinion of Licensor do not
                  meet its standard of quality.

                  and  against  any and all  actions,  suits,  claims,  demands,

                  or service offered by Licensee.

                  Licensee  if Licensee  commits any act or becomes  involved in
                  any situation or  occurrence  which in the opinion of Licensor
                  would  tend to bring  Licensor  or its  Trademarks  to  public
                  disrepute,  contempt  scandal,  or ridicule  or which,  in the
                  opinion of Licensor, would tend to shock, insult or offend the

         that  prevent  the correct  operation  of the system will be tested and
         upgraded, if necessary, by April 1, 1999.

         Pure has tested its current  computer  equipment for Y2K compliance and
         is confident that the computer  equipment  being used to monitor is Y2K
         compliant.

ON-SITE DEMONSTRATION OF YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

         Pure would be pleased  to provide an on-site  demonstration  of the Y2K
         compliance of any of the computer  equipment  supplied by Pure.  Please
         contact  Pure at 1 (800)  537-2806 to arrange a  demonstration  at your
         convenience.

IBM-PC COMPATIBLE COMPUTER

         99% of the PC's being used to monitor  remote  sites have a system BIOS
         that is certified by the BIOS manufacturer to be Y2K compliant.  Please
         contact  Pure for  further  information  regarding  the  specific  BIOS
         information.   Pure  has   identified   all  systems   with  a  non-Y2K
         compliant-BIOS,  and is scheduling  upgrades or replacements  for these
         systems prior to April 1, 1999.

OPERATING SYSTEM SOFTWARE

         The  operating  system  software  used on the PC is Windows NT 4.0 with
         Service Pack 3 or higher.  Nficrosoft has stated that such versions are
         Y2K compliant or Y2K compliant with minor issues. Pure has demonstrated
         that none of these minor  issues  affect the  operation of the computer
         equipment or the application  software.  For further  information visit
         the      Microsoft      Year      2000      Resource      Center     at
         http://www.microsoft.com/technet/topics/Year2k.

APPLICATION SOFTWARE

         Monitoring of Acoustic Data

         All  monitoring  of acoustic  data relies  solely on software  services
         developed  by Pure,  provided  by the  operating  system or third party
         software  libraries  that do not  specifically  relate to date and time
         storage, representation or manipulation.

         Pure  warrants  that all  software  developed  by Pure to  perform  the
         function  of  monitoring  of  acoustic  data can store,  represent  and
         otherwise manipulate dates and times up to and beyond the Year 2000.

         Transmission of Data Files

         All  transmission  of data files  relies  solely on  software  services
         developed  by Pure,  provided  by the  operating  system or third party
         software  libraries  that do not  specifically  relate to date and time
         storage; representation or manipulation.

         Pure  warrants  that all  software  developed  by Pure to  perform  the
         function  of  transmission  of data  files  can  store,  represent  and
         otherwise manipulate dates and times up to and beyond the Year 2000.

         Provision of Remote Access to the PC

         Provision  of  remote  access to the PC  relies  on  software  services
         provided by the operating  system and  Symantec's  pcAnywhere32  7.5 or
         higher.  Symantec states that only  pcAnywhere32 8.0 and higher are Y2K
         compliant.  For  further  information  see  Symantec's  Y2K web site at
         http://www.symantec.com/y2k/y2k.html.

         Systems commissioned during and after October 1998 all use pcAnywhere32
         8.0  or  higher.   Systems  commissioned  prior  to  October  1998  use
         pcAnywhere32 7.5.

         Accordingly,  Pure has tested  pcAnywhere32  7.5 for correct  operation
         through the Year 2000 and beyond.  These  tests have not  revealed  any
         issues that  negatively  impact the  provision of remote  access or any
         other aspect of the system.

<PAGE>

         If  an  Issue  does  arise  because  of  the  Y2K   non-compliance   of
         pcAnywhere32 7.5 such that the provision of remote access is negatively
         impacted, Pure warrants that it will replace, at its cost, pcAnywhere32
         7.5 with a version of  pcAnywhere  that  Symantec  has stated to be Y2K
         compliant.

         Virus Protection

         Provision  of virus  protection  to the PC relies on software  services
         provided by the  Symantec's  Norton  Antivirus 4.0 or higher.  Symantec
         states that such versions of Norton  Antivirus are Y2K  compliant.  For
         further    information    see    Symantec's    Y2K    web    site    at
         http://www.symantec.com/y2k/y2k.htmL
