EXECUTION VERSION

                              A/R ESCROW AGREEMENT

      THIS A/R ESCROW AGREEMENT (this "Escrow Agreement") is made and entered
into as of November ___, 2005, by and among NATIONAL INVESTMENT MANAGERS INC., a
Florida corporation ("Buyer"), JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as escrow agent (the
"Escrow Agent"), and AMERICAN BENEFIT RESOURCES, INC., a Connecticut corporation
(the "Seller").

                                    RECITALS

      A. Buyer and Seller have entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as
of November 1, 2005 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which Buyer is
acquiring substantially all of the assets of Seller.

      B. The Asset Purchase Agreement contemplates the establishment of an
escrow arrangement to provide for the deposit and release of the A/R Escrow
Amount (as defined below) consisting of $257,191 in cash.

      C. The Asset Purchase Agreement provides that (i) the A/R Escrow Amount
will be deposited into the escrow arrangement contemplated hereby on the date
hereof and (ii) on the date of the closing of the transactions contemplated by
the Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Closing Date"), an escrow agreement will be
entered into by the parties hereto (or, in lieu of the Escrow Agent, by another
escrow agent reasonably satisfactory to the other parties hereto) (the
"Indemnification Escrow Agreement") to provide for the payment of any Adjustment
Amount (as defined in the Indemnification Escrow Agreement) and to cover the
matters contemplated by Article VIII of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

                                    AGREEMENT

      The parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used in this Escrow Agreement and not
otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Asset Purchase
Agreement.

2. Accounts.

      2.1. A/R Escrow Account. On the date hereof, Buyer is depositing with the
Escrow Agent (the "A/R Escrow Account") Two Hundred Fifty Seven Thousand One
Hundred Ninety One Dollars ($257,191) (the "A/R Escrow Amount"), which
represents the excess of the Overdue A/R over the sum of (a) the reserves
established by Seller for Accounts Receivable as of the Overdue A/R Measurement
Date, and (b) the aggregate amount in respect of Overdue A/R collected between
the Overdue A/R Measurement Date and the Closing Date. The Escrow Agent agrees
to accept delivery of the A/R Escrow Amount and to hold the A/R Escrow Amount
subject to the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement and the Asset
Purchase Agreement (but the Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility with
respect to the Asset Purchase Agreement other than to perform its obligations as
provided in this Escrow Agreement and, if it is the escrow agent thereunder, the
Indemnification Escrow Agreement). The Escrow Agent agrees to hold the A/R
Escrow Amount in a segregated escrow account that will bear interest.

<PAGE>

      2.2. Investment. During the term of this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow
Agent shall invest and reinvest the A/R Escrow Amount in one of the following
investments: (a) the JPMorgan 100% U.S. Treasuries Securities Money Market Fund
- Premier Share Class, (b) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Money Market Account, (c)
certificates of deposit of the Escrow Agent or (d) treasury bills or other
investments backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America
("Treasuries"), in any such case with a remaining maturity at the time of
investment not exceeding 30 days, or such other instruments as are mutually
acceptable to Buyer, Seller and the Escrow Agent. In the absence of written
instructions from Buyer and Seller, the Escrow Funds will be invested in a
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Money Market Account.

      All investment orders involving Treasuries, commercial paper and other
direct obligations will be executed through JPMorgan Fleming Asset Management
("JPMFAM"), in the investment management division of JPMorgan Chase Bank.
Subject to the principles of best execution, transactions shall be effected on
behalf of the A/R Escrow Account through broker-dealers selected by JPMFAM. In
this regard, JPMFAM seeks to attain the best overall result for the A/R Escrow
Account, taking into consideration quality of service and reliability. An agency
fee will be assessed in connection with each transaction, which fee will be a
basis point charge in the interest rate paid on the respective investment, which
will be net of such charge. The Escrow Agent shall provide to Buyer and Seller a
notification providing transaction details for the A/R Escrow Account within
five days of any securities transaction in that account. This notification shall
be provided without any additional cost to Buyer and Seller.

      The Escrow Agent shall have the right to liquidate any investments held,
in order to provide funds necessary to make required payments under this Escrow
Agreement. The Escrow Agent in its capacity as escrow agent hereunder shall not
have any liability for any loss sustained as a result of any investment made
pursuant to the instructions of the parties hereto or as a result of any
liquidation of any investment prior to its maturity or for the failure of Buyer
and Seller to provide the Escrow Agent with investment instructions.

      2.3. Transferability. The interests of Seller in the A/R Escrow Amount
shall not be assignable or transferable, except to IBF Fund Liquidating LLC
("IBF"). The assignment or transfer of any of such interests shall not be
recognized or given effect until Buyer and the Escrow Agent shall have received
written notice of such assignment or transfer.

      2.4. Trust Fund. The A/R Escrow Amount held in the A/R Escrow Account
shall be held as a trust fund and shall not be subject to any lien, attachment,
trustee process or any other judicial process of any creditor of Seller or of
any party hereto. The Escrow Agent shall hold and safeguard the A/R Escrow
Account until the A/R Escrow Amount is released in accordance with this Escrow
Agreement.

3. Release of A/R Escrow Amount.

      3.1. During the ninety (90) day period beginning at the end of the month
following the Closing (the "A/R Collection Period"), to the extent Buyer
collects amounts in respect of Overdue A/R, Buyer shall deliver written notice
to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release to Seller from the
A/R Escrow Amount an amount equal to the amount collected by Buyer in respect of
Overdue A/R (determined using the first-in, first-out method and regardless of
whether payments are identified by the payor as applicable to a particular
invoice) (including all earnings, interest and gains on the investment of the
A/R Escrow Amount (the "Earnings") on such portion of the A/R Escrow Amount) by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts specified
in writing by Seller.

                                       2
<PAGE>

      3.2. At the expiration of the A/R Collection Period, Buyer and Seller
shall deliver written notice to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to
release the balance of the A/R Escrow Amount (including any Earnings on such
portion of the A/R Escrow Amount), if any, to Buyer by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account or accounts specified in writing by
Buyer. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by
it in good faith except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that the Escrow Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct was
the primary cause of any loss to the Buyer or Seller. In the event that the
Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder or shall
receive instructions, claims or demands from any party hereto which, in its
opinion, conflict with any of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement, it shall
be entitled to refrain from taking any action and its sole obligation shall be
to keep safely all property held in escrow until it shall be directed otherwise
in writing by all of the other parties hereto or by a final order or judgment of
a court of competent jurisdiction.

4. Fees and Expenses. The Buyer and Seller agree jointly and severally to (i)
pay the Escrow Agent upon execution of this Escrow Agreement and from time to
time thereafter reasonable compensation for the services to be rendered
hereunder, which unless otherwise agreed in writing shall be as described in
Schedule 1 attached hereto, and (ii) pay or reimburse the Escrow Agent upon
request for all expenses, disbursements and advances, including reasonable
attorney's fees and expenses, incurred or made by it in connection with the
preparation, execution, performance, delivery, modification and termination of
this Escrow Agreement. Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand,
shall each pay 50% of the fees of the Escrow Agent.

5. Limitation of Escrow Agent's Liability.

      5.1. The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Escrow Agreement only and shall have no duty
under any other agreement or document, and no implied covenants or obligations
shall be read into this Escrow Agreement against the Escrow Agent. The Escrow
Agent may rely upon and shall not be liable for acting or refraining from acting
upon any written notice, instruction or request furnished to it hereunder and
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to inquire into or
investigate the validity, accuracy or content of any such document. In all
questions arising under this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent may rely on the
advice of counsel, and for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by
the Escrow Agent based upon such advice the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to
anyone. Anything in this Escrow Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no
event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential
losses or damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost
profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such
loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

                                       3

      5.2. The Buyer and the Seller (collectively referred to as the
"Indemnitors") shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and save harmless
the Escrow Agent and its directors, officers, agents and employees (the
"Indemnitees") from all loss, liability or expense (including the fees and
expenses of in house or outside counsel) arising out of or in connection with
(i) the Escrow Agent's execution and performance of this Escrow Agreement,
except in the case of any indemnitee to the extent that such loss, liability or
expense is due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnitee,
or (ii) its following any instructions or other directions from the Buyer or the
Seller, except to the extent that its following any such instruction or
direction is expressly forbidden by the terms hereof. The parties hereto
acknowledge that the foregoing indemnities shall survive the resignation or
removal of the Escrow Agent or the termination of this Escrow Agreement. The
parties hereby grant the Escrow Agent a lien on, right of set-off against and
security interest in the Escrow Fund for the payment of any claim for
indemnification, compensation, expenses and amounts due hereunder

6. Account Opening Information/TINs.

      6.1. IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT

For accounts opened in the US:

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering
activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify,
and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. When an
account is opened, Escrow Agent will ask for information that will allow it to
identify relevant parties.

For non-US accounts:

To help in the fight against the funding of terrorism and money laundering
activities, Escrow Agent is required along with all financial institutions to
obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an
account. When an account is opened, Escrow Agent will ask for information that
will allow it to identify relevant parties.

      6.2. TINs. The Buyer and the Seller each represent that its correct
Taxpayer Identification Number ("TIN") assigned by the Internal Revenue Service
("IRS")or any other taxing authority is set forth in Schedule 1. Upon execution
of this Agreement, the Buyer and Seller shall provide the Escrow Agent with a
fully executed W-8 or W-9 IRS form, which shall include the Buyer's and Seller's
TIN. In addition, all interest or other income earned under the Escrow Agreement
shall be allocated and/or paid as directed in a joint written direction of the
Buyer and the Seller and reported by the recipient to the Internal Revenue
Service or any other taxing authority. Notwithstanding such written directions,
Escrow Agent shall report and, as required withhold any taxes as it determines
may be required by any law or regulation in effect at the time of the
distribution. In the absence of timely direction, all proceeds of the Escrow
Fund shall be retained in the Escrow Fund and reinvested from time to time by
the Escrow Agent as provided in Section 2.2 hereof. In the event that any
earnings remain undistributed at the end of any calendar year, Escrow Agent
shall report to the Internal Revenue Service or such other authority such
earnings as it deems appropriate or as required by any applicable law or
regulation or, to the extent consistent therewith, as directed in writing by the
Buyer and the Seller. In addition, Escrow Agent shall withhold any taxes it
deems appropriate and shall remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities.

                                       4
<PAGE>

7. Termination. This Escrow Agreement shall terminate on the later of the
expiration date of the A/R Collection Period and the release by the Escrow Agent
of the entire A/R Escrow Amount (including any Earnings) to Seller.

8. Successor Escrow Agent. In the event the Escrow Agent becomes unavailable or
unwilling to continue as escrow agent under this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow
Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder by
giving its written resignation to the parties to this Escrow Agreement. Such
resignation shall take effect on the earlier of (i) a successor escrow agent
being in place and (ii) thirty (30) days after such resignation is given to all
parties hereto. In such event, Buyer and Seller may appoint a successor escrow
agent. If Buyer and Seller fail to appoint a successor escrow agent within
fifteen (15) days after receiving the Escrow Agent's written resignation, the
Escrow Agent shall have the right to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor escrow agent. The successor escrow agent
shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent an instrument accepting such
appointment, and the successor escrow agent shall, without further acts, be
vested with all the estates, property rights, powers and duties of the
predecessor Escrow Agent as if originally named as Escrow Agent herein. The
Escrow Agent shall act in accordance with joint written instructions from Buyer
and Seller as to the transfer of the A/R Escrow Account to a successor escrow
agent.

9. Security Procedures. In the event funds transfer instructions are given
(other than in writing at the time of execution of this Escrow Agreement, as
indicated in Schedule 1 attached hereto), whether in writing, by telecopier or
otherwise, the Escrow Agent is authorized to seek confirmation of such
instructions by telephone call-back to the person or persons designated on
Schedule 2 hereto, and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone
purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The persons and telephone
numbers for call-backs may be changed only in a writing actually received and
acknowledged by the Escrow Agent. If the Escrow Agent is unable to contact any
of the authorized representatives identified in Schedule 2, the Escrow Agent is
hereby authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone
call-back to any one or more of the Buyer's or Seller's executive officers,
("Executive Officers"), as applicable, which shall include the titles of Chief
Executive Officer, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer, as the Escrow Agent
may select. Such "Executive Officer" shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a fully
executed Incumbency Certificate, and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the
confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer. The Escrow Agent and
the beneficiary's bank in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account
numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by the Buyer or the Seller to
identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary's bank, or (iii) an
intermediary bank. The Escrow Agent may apply any of the escrowed funds for any
payment order it executes using any such identifying number, even when its use
may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of
funds to a bank other than the beneficiary's bank or an intermediary bank
designated. The parties to this Escrow Agreement acknowledge that these security
procedures are commercially reasonable.

Seller hereunder, the prevailing party in such action or suit shall be entitled
to receive a reasonable sum for its attorneys' fees and all other reasonable
costs and expenses incurred from either the Buyer or Seller, as applicable, in
such action or suit. In all cases, Escrow Agent's attorney fees will be paid by
the Buyer or Seller regardless.

                        INDEMNIFICATION ESCROW AGREEMENT

            This INDEMNIFICATION ESCROW AGREEMENT (this "Escrow Agreement") is
made and entered into as of November ___, 2005, by and among National Investment
Managers Inc., a Florida corporation ("Buyer"), American Benefit Resources,
Inc., a Connecticut corporation ("Seller"), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., a
federal bank, as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent"). Capitalized terms used but
not defined herein will have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Asset
Purchase Agreement (as defined below).

                                    RECITALS

            Buyer and Seller have entered into that certain Asset Purchase
Agreement dated as of November 1, 2005 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), whereby
Buyer proposes to acquire substantially all of the assets of Seller.

            In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Escrow Funds
(as defined below) are to be held in escrow from which reimbursement is
available to Buyer upon the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement and
the Asset Purchase Agreement.

            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants set forth in this
Escrow Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Buyer, Seller and the Escrow Agent
hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
                                 ESCROW ACCOUNT

      Section 1.1 Escrow Funds. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery
of this Escrow Agreement, Buyer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with
the Escrow Agent Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000.00) (the "Escrow
Funds"), via wire transfer of immediately available funds to a separate account
maintained by the Escrow Agent (the "Indemnity Account"). The Escrow Agent
agrees to hold the Escrow Funds in the separate Indemnity Account as described
above and to administer the Indemnity Account and the Escrow Funds in accordance
with this Escrow Agreement.

      Section 1.2 Investment; Periodic Statements. During the term of this
Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall invest and reinvest the Escrow Funds in
one of the following investments: (a) the JPMorgan 100% U.S. Treasuries
Securities Money Market Fund - Premier Share Class, (b) JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A. Money Market Account, (c) certificates of deposit of the Escrow Agent or
(d) treasury bills or other investments backed by the full faith and credit of
the United States of America ("Treasuries"), in any such case with a remaining
maturity at the time of investment not exceeding 30 days, or such other
instruments as are mutually acceptable to Buyer, Seller and the Escrow Agent. In
the absence of written instructions from Buyer and Seller, the Escrow Funds will
be invested in a JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Money Market Account.

            All investment orders involving Treasuries, commercial paper and
other direct obligations will be executed through JPMorgan Fleming Asset
Management ("JPMFAM"), in the investment management division of JPMorgan Chase
Bank. Subject to the principles of best execution, transactions shall be

<PAGE>

effected on behalf of the Indemnity Account through broker-dealers selected by
JPMFAM. In this regard, JPMFAM seeks to attain the best overall result for the
Indemnity Account, taking into consideration quality of service and reliability.
An agency fee will be assessed in connection with each transaction, which fee
will be a basis point charge in the interest rate paid on the respective
investment, which will be net of such charge. The Escrow Agent shall provide
Buyer and Seller with a notification providing transaction details for the
Indemnity Account within five days of any securities transaction in that
account. This notification shall be provided without any additional cost to
Buyer and Seller.

            The Escrow Agent shall have the right to liquidate any investments
held, in order to provide funds necessary to make required payments under this
Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent in its capacity as escrow agent hereunder
shall not have any liability for any loss sustained as a result of any
investment made pursuant to the instructions of the parties hereto or as a
result of any liquidation of any investment prior to its maturity or for the
failure of Buyer and Seller to provide the Escrow Agent with investment
instructions.

            Within 15 Business Days after the end of each calendar quarter
during which the Escrow Agent is holding the Escrow Funds pursuant to this
Escrow Agreement, commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2005, the
Escrow Agent shall provide to Buyer and Seller a statement detailing the total
amount of the Escrow Funds, all transactions and investments involving the
Escrow Funds, all earnings, interest and gains on the investment of the Escrow
Funds (collectively "Earnings") and all disbursements made pursuant to Article
II hereof, in each case during such calendar quarter. This statement shall be
provided without any additional cost to Buyer or Seller.

                                   ARTICLE II
                 CLAIMS AGAINST AND RELEASE OF THE ESCROW FUNDS

      Section 2.1 Claims Against the Indemnity Account. The Escrow Agent shall
release from the Indemnity Account and disburse the Escrow Funds (and any
Earnings on the portion of Escrow Funds disbursed) to Buyer or Seller, as
applicable, only as follows:

            (a) If the Final Net Liabilities (as finally determined pursuant to
Section 2.7 of the Asset Purchase Agreement) are greater than $3,660,000, but
less than or equal to $3,760,000, the Escrow Agent shall disburse to Buyer the
amount by which the Final Net Liabilities exceed $3,660,000 (and any Earnings
thereon) (the "Adjustment Amount") upon receipt by the Escrow Agent of a
certificate signed by Buyer and Seller (a "Joint Certificate") instructing the
Escrow Agent to disburse the Adjustment Amount (and any Earnings thereon) to
Buyer;

            (b) If, prior to the first anniversary of the date of the closing of
the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Closing
Date"), any Buyer Indemnitee believes it is entitled to indemnification pursuant
to Article VIII of the Asset Purchase Agreement for which it elects, or is
required, under the Asset Purchase Agreement to make a claim against the
Indemnity Account, Buyer shall deliver an Escrow Claim Notice pursuant to

                                       2
<PAGE>

Section 8.7(b)(i) of the Asset Purchase Agreement to the Escrow Agent and
Seller. If, by 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the 30th day following receipt by
Seller of an Escrow Claim Notice (the "Dispute Period"), neither Buyer nor the
Escrow Agent has received a written statement from Seller (a "Dispute Notice")
that Seller objects to the Escrow Claim (or the amount of Damages set forth in
such Escrow Claim Notice) described in such Escrow Claim Notice, the Escrow
Agent shall disburse to Buyer, a portion of the Escrow Funds (and any Earnings
thereon) equal to the Damages specified in the Escrow Claim Notice. If, before
the expiration of the Dispute Period, the Escrow Agent receives a Dispute
Notice, the Escrow Agent shall (1) promptly forward a copy of the Dispute Notice
to Buyer, (2) if applicable, disburse to the applicable Buyer Indemnitee a
portion of the Escrow Funds (and any Earnings thereon) equal to the amount of
Damages that are specifically set forth in such Dispute Notice not to be in
dispute, if any and (3) continue to hold in the Indemnity Account an amount
equal to any amounts that are being disputed, and the Escrow Agent shall not
disburse any such amounts unless, until and only to the extent that the Escrow
Agent (i) receives a Joint Certificate regarding the disbursement of funds from
the Escrow Funds or (ii) is directed to make a disbursement by a court
adjudicating such dispute (each, a "Payment Authorization") and any such
disbursements shall be made in accordance with Sections 2.1(c) and (d). To the
extent any party wishes to submit any dispute to adjudication, it shall do so in
accordance with Section 4.7;

            (c) On the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the "Termination
Date"), the amount of the Escrow Funds (and any Earnings thereon), to the extent
not paid to Buyer or subject to a Dispute Notice, shall be paid to Seller.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Escrow Agent shall have received a Dispute
Notice prior to the Termination Date with respect to a claim (an "Unresolved
Claim") for which the Escrow Agent has not received a subsequent Payment
Authorization (a "Claim Resolution Notice"), then on the Termination Date (i)
the Escrow Agent shall retain a portion of the Escrow Funds sufficient for the
payment of all Unresolved Claims, and (ii) the Escrow Agent shall release to
Seller the portion of the Escrow Funds (and any Earnings thereon) not otherwise
required to be retained in accordance with this Section 2.1(c);

            (d) Upon the receipt of a Claim Resolution Notice following the
Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall (i) release any portion of the Escrow
Funds retained in respect of such Unresolved Claims (A) to Buyer in the amount,
if any, set forth in the Claim Resolution Notice as payable to Buyer in respect
of such Unresolved Claims, and (B) to Seller in the amount equal to the
difference of the amount retained in respect of the Unresolved Claim less the
amount payable to Buyer pursuant to clause (A) and (ii) if no other Unresolved
Claims remain outstanding, release the remainder of the Escrow Funds (and any
Earnings thereon) to Seller.

      Section 2.2 Distributions by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall make
all disbursements of the Escrow Funds and Earnings pursuant to Section 2.1
hereof within three Business Days following (a) the Escrow Agent's receipt of
the requisite documentation specified in the applicable subsection of Section
2.1 hereof or (b) the expiration of the Dispute Period in the event the Escrow
Agent has not received a Dispute Notice, respectively. The Escrow Agent shall
make all disbursements via wire transfer of immediately available funds to
accounts specified in writing by the party entitled to such disbursement. In all
cases, any Joint Certificate, Payment Authorization or Claim Resolution Notice
furnished to the Escrow Agent will provide the Escrow Agent with the specific
dollar amounts to be disbursed to the entitled parties and the Escrow Agent will
not have any responsibility for determining or calculating the amounts to be
disbursed from the Escrow Funds.

      Section 2.3 Taxes. Upon execution of this Escrow Agreement, Buyer shall
deliver to the Escrow Agent a fully executed Form W-8 or W-9 which shall include
Buyer's certified tax identification number and Seller shall deliver to the
Escrow Agent a fully executed Form W-8 or W-9 which shall include Seller's
certified tax identification number. The Escrow Agent shall report any Earnings
on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099 (or any other required Internal Revenue
Service forms or tax returns) and the Escrow Agent shall withhold income tax
from any such Earnings to the extent required by Law (and file any required Tax
Returns) and deposit such amounts with the appropriate Governmental Authority as
required by Law.

                                  ARTICLE III
                       MATTERS CONCERNING THE ESCROW AGENT

      Section 3.1 Fees and Expenses. The Buyer and Seller agree jointly and
severally to (i) pay the Escrow Agent upon execution of this Escrow Agreement
and from time to time thereafter reasonable compensation for the services to be
rendered hereunder, which unless otherwise agreed in writing shall be as
described in Schedule 1 attached hereto, and (ii) pay or reimburse the Escrow
Agent upon request for all expenses, disbursements and advances, including
reasonable attorney's fees and expenses, incurred or made by it in connection
with the preparation, execution, performance, delivery, modification and
termination of this Escrow Agreement. Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the
other hand, shall each pay 50% of the fees of the Escrow Agent.

      Section 3.2 Limitation of the Escrow Agent's Liability. The Escrow Agent
undertakes to perform such duties as are specifically set forth in this Escrow
Agreement only and shall have no duty under any other agreement or document, and
no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Escrow Agreement
against the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent may rely upon and shall not be liable
for acting or refraining from acting upon any written notice, instruction or
request furnished to it hereunder and believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall
be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or
content of any such document. In all questions arising under this Escrow
Agreement, the Escrow Agent may rely on the advice of counsel, and for anything
done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Escrow Agent based upon such
advice the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone. Anything in this Escrow
Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be
liable for special, indirect or consequential losses or damages of any kind
whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent
has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the
form of action.

            3.2.1 The Buyer and the Seller (collectively referred to as the
"Indemnitors") shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and save harmless
the Escrow Agent and its directors, officers, agents and employees (the
"Indemnitees") from all loss, liability or expense (including the fees and

                                       4
<PAGE>

expenses of in house or outside counsel) arising out of or in connection with
(i) the Escrow Agent's execution and performance of this Escrow Agreement,
except in the case of any indemnitee to the extent that such loss, liability or
expense is due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnitee,
or (ii) its following any instructions or other directions from the Buyer or the
Seller, except to the extent that its following any such instruction or
direction is expressly forbidden by the terms hereof. The parties hereto
acknowledge that the foregoing indemnities shall survive the resignation or
removal of the Escrow Agent or the termination of this Escrow Agreement. The
parties hereby grant the Escrow Agent a lien on, right of set-off against and
security interest in the Escrow Fund for the payment of any claim for
indemnification, compensation, expenses and amounts due hereunder

      Section 3.3 Account Opening Information/TINs.

            3.3.1 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW
ACCOUNT

For accounts opened in the US:

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering
activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify,
and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. When an
account is opened, Escrow Agent will ask for information that will allow it to
identify relevant parties.

For non-US accounts:

To help in the fight against the funding of terrorism and money laundering
activities, Escrow Agent is required along with all financial institutions to
obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an
account. When an account is opened, Escrow Agent will ask for information that
will allow it to identify relevant parties.

            3.3.2 TINs. The Buyer and the Seller each represent that its correct
Taxpayer Identification Number ("TIN") assigned by the Internal Revenue Service
("IRS")or any other taxing authority is set forth in Schedule 1. Upon execution
of this Agreement, the Buyer and Seller shall provide the Escrow Agent with a
fully executed W-8 or W-9 IRS form, which shall include the Buyer's and Seller's
TIN. In addition, all interest or other income earned under the Escrow Agreement
shall be allocated and/or paid as directed in a joint written direction of the
Buyer and the Seller and reported by the recipient to the Internal Revenue
Service or any other taxing authority. Notwithstanding such written directions,
Escrow Agent shall report and, as required withhold any taxes as it determines
may be required by any law or regulation in effect at the time of the
distribution. In the absence of timely direction, all proceeds of the Escrow
Fund shall be retained in the Escrow Fund and reinvested from time to time by
the Escrow Agent as provided in Section 2.2 hereof. In the event that any
earnings remain undistributed at the end of any calendar year, Escrow Agent
shall report to the Internal Revenue Service or such other authority such
earnings as it deems appropriate or as required by any applicable law or
regulation or, to the extent consistent therewith, as directed in writing by the
Buyer and the Seller. In addition, Escrow Agent shall withhold any taxes it
deems appropriate and shall remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities.

                                       5
<PAGE>

      Section 3.4 Successor Escrow Agent. In the event the Escrow Agent becomes
unavailable or unwilling to continue as escrow agent under this Escrow
Agreement, the Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder by giving its written resignation to the parties to this
Escrow Agreement. Such resignation shall take effect on the earlier of (i) a
successor escrow agent being in place and (ii) thirty (30) days after such
resignation is given to all parties hereto. In such event, Buyer and Seller may
appoint a successor escrow agent. If Buyer and Seller fail to appoint a
successor escrow agent within fifteen (15) days after receiving the Escrow
Agent's written resignation, the Escrow Agent shall have the right to apply to a
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor escrow agent.
The successor escrow agent shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent an
instrument accepting such appointment, and the successor escrow agent shall,
without further acts, be vested with all the estates, property rights, powers
and duties of the predecessor Escrow Agent as if originally named as Escrow
Agent herein. The Escrow Agent shall act in accordance with joint written
instructions from Buyer and Seller as to the transfer of the Indemnity Account
to a successor escrow agent.

      Section 3.5 Security Procedures. In the event funds transfer instructions
are given (other than in writing at the time of execution of this Escrow
Agreement, as indicated in Schedule 1 attached hereto), whether in writing, by
telecopier or otherwise, the Escrow Agent is authorized to seek confirmation of
such instructions by telephone call-back to the person or persons designated on
Schedule 2 hereto, and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone
purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The persons and telephone
numbers for call-backs may be changed only in a writing actually received and
acknowledged by the Escrow Agent. If the Escrow Agent is unable to contact any
of the authorized representatives identified in Schedule 2, the Escrow Agent is
hereby authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone
call-back to any one or more of the Buyer's or Seller's executive officers,
("Executive Officers"), as applicable, which shall include the titles of Chief
Executive Officer, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer, as the Escrow Agent
may select. Such "Executive Officer" shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a fully
executed Incumbency Certificate, and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the
confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer. The Escrow Agent and
the beneficiary's bank in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account
numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by the Buyer or the Seller to
identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary's bank, or (iii) an
intermediary bank. The Escrow Agent may apply any of the escrowed funds for any
payment order it executes using any such identifying number, even when its use
may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of
funds to a bank other than the beneficiary's bank or an intermediary bank
designated. The parties to this Escrow Agreement acknowledge that these security
procedures are commercially reasonable.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      Section 4.1 Termination. This Escrow Agreement shall terminate on the
later of (i) the date on which the Escrow Agent disburses all of the Escrow
Funds and Earnings as provided herein and (ii) the first anniversary of the
Closing Date.

                                       6
<PAGE>

      Section 4.2 Attorneys' Fees. In any action at law or suit in equity to
enforce or interpret this Escrow Agreement or the rights of either the Buyer or
the Seller hereunder, the prevailing party in such action or suit shall be
entitled to receive a reasonable sum for its attorneys' fees and all other
reasonable costs and expenses incurred from either the Buyer or Seller, as
applicable, in such action or suit. In all cases, Escrow Agent's attorney fees
will be paid by the Buyer or Seller regardless.

      Section 4.3 Notices. All notices, consents, waivers, requests and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered by courier
or other means of personal service (including by means of a nationally

rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Escrow
Agreement.

power, right, privilege or remedy under this Escrow Agreement, and no delay on
the part of any Person in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under
this Escrow Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege
or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege
or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other
power, right, privilege or remedy. No Person shall be deemed to have waived any
claim arising out of this Escrow Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or
remedy under this Escrow Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power,
right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly
executed and delivered on behalf of such Person; and any such waiver shall not

unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Escrow Agreement, and the
application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to
which it is determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable, shall not
be impaired or otherwise affected and shall continue to be valid and enforceable
to the fullest extent permitted by law.
