     WHEREAS, each subscriber in the Offering will enter into a Subscription
Agreement with the Corporation;

     WHEREAS, the non-public stockholders of the Corporation have purchased an
aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 1,000,000 Class A Warrants
(the "Non- Public Stockholders");

     WHEREAS, the Corporation is a "blank check" company within the meaning of
Rule 419 ("Rule 419") of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"); and

     WHEREAS, Rule 419 provides that:

     (a) The securities to be issued and the funds received in the Offering and
from the Non-Public Stockholders be deposited and held in an escrow account

special account established for the benefit of the Corporation and disburse all
funds, Common Stock certificates and Warrants received by it pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, as follows:

          3.1 In the event that neither a Mandatory Investor Termination nor a
     Company Termination has occurred and the Corporation completes an
     acquisition meeting the specified criteria, the Agent will, pursuant to
     written instructions signed by the Corporation, pay to the Corporation,
     and/or to any other person designated in such instructions, the proceeds
     received by the Agent from the sale of such Units available after deducting

     and the Non-Public Stockholders requesting their subscription funds
     returned pursuant to subsection 3.3.

          3.2 In the event of either a Mandatory Investor Termination or a

     business days after such date, as the case may be, return to the

     4. Exculpation and Indemnification of Agent.

          4.1 The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than
     those expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall have no duty to enforce
     any obligation of any person to make any payment or delivery, or to direct
     or cause any payment or delivery to be made, or to enforce any obligation
     of any person to perform any other act. The Agent shall be under no
     liability to the other parties hereto or to anyone else by reason of any
     failure on the part of any party hereto or any maker, guarantor, endorser
     or other signatory of any document or any other person to perform such
     person's obligations under any such document. Except for amendments to this
     Agreement referred to below, and except for instructions given to the Agent
     by the Corporation, the subscribers and the Non-Public Stockholders
     relating to the escrow deposit under this Agreement, the Agent shall not be
     obligated to recognize any agreement between any and all of the persons
     referred to herein, notwithstanding that references thereto may be made
     herein and whether or not it has knowledge thereof.

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

          4.2 The Agent shall not be liable to the Corporation or to anyone else
     for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be
     taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best
     judgment. The Agent may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting
     upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel
     (including counsel chosen by the Agent), statement, instrument, report or
     other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity
     and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and
     acceptability of any information therein contained), which is believed by
     the Agent to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person
     or persons. The Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any
     waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement or any of
     the terms thereof, unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Agent
     signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the
     Agent are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto.

          4.3 The Agent shall not be responsible for the sufficiency or accuracy
     of the form of, or the execution, validity, value or genuineness of, any
     document or property received, held or delivered by it hereunder, or of any
     signature or endorsement thereon, or for any lack of endorsement thereon,
     or for any description therein; nor shall the Agent be responsible or
     liable to the other parties hereto or to anyone else in any respect on
     account of the identity, authority or rights of the persons executing or
     delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any document or property or
     this Agreement. The Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the
     use or application of any funds or other property paid or delivered by the
     Agent pursuant to the provisions hereof. The Agent shall not be liable to
     the Corporation or to anyone else for any loss which may be incurred by
     reason of any investment of any monies which it holds hereunder provided
     the Agent has complied with the provisions of Section 3 hereunder.

          4.4 The Agent shall have the right to assume in the absence of written
     notice to the contrary from the proper person or persons that a fact or an
     event by reason of which an action would or might be taken by the Agent
     does not exist or has not occurred, without incurring liability to the
     other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted, or
     any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the
     exercise of its own best judgment, in reliance upon such assumption.

          4.5 To the extent that the Agent becomes liable for the payment of
     taxes, including withholding taxes, in respect of income derived from the
     investment of funds held hereunder or any payment made hereunder, the Agent
     may pay such taxes. The Agent may withhold from any payment of monies held
     by it hereunder such amount as the Agent estimates to be sufficient to
     provide for the payment of such taxes not yet paid, and may use the sum
     withheld for that purpose. The Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless
     against any liability for taxes and for any penalties or interest in
     respect of taxes, on such investment income or payments in the manner
     provided in Section 4.6.

          4.6 The Agent will be indemnified and held harmless by the

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

     Corporation from and against any and all expenses, including reasonable
     counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Agent in connection
     with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim, or in
     connection with any claim or demand, which in any way, directly or
     indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the
     Agent hereunder, the monies or other property held by it hereunder or any
     income earned from investment of such monies. The Agent shall have a lien
     for the amount of any such expenses or loss on the monies and other
     property held by it hereunder and shall be entitled to reimburse itself
     from such monies or property for the amount of any such expense or loss.
     Promptly after the receipt by the Agent or notice of any demand or claim or
     the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Agent shall, if a
     claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Corporation, notify the
     Corporation thereof in writing, but the failure by the Agent to give such
     notice shall not relieve the Corporation from any liability which the
     Corporation may have to the Agent hereunder. Notwithstanding any obligation
     to make payments and deliveries hereunder, the Agent may retain and hold
     for such time as it deems necessary such amount of monies or property as it
     shall, from time to time, in its sole discretion, deem sufficient to
     indemnify itself for any such loss or expense and for any amounts due it
     under Section 7.

          4.7 For the purposes hereof, the term "expense or loss" shall include
     all amounts paid or payable to satisfy any claim, demand or liability, or
     in settlement of any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding settled with
     the express written consent of the Agent, and all costs and expenses,
     including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements,
     paid or incurred in investigating or defending against any such claim,
     demand, action, suit or proceeding.

     5. Termination of Agreement and Resignation of Agent.

          5.1 This Agreement shall terminate on the final disposition of the
     monies and property held in escrow hereunder, provided that the rights of
     the Agent and the obligations of the other parties hereto under Sections 4
     and 7 shall survive the termination hereof.

          5.2 The Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from its duties
     as Agent hereunder by giving the Corporation, the subscribers and the
     Non-Public Stockholders at least 30 days' notice thereof. As soon as
     practicable after its resignation, the Agent shall turn over to a successor
     escrow agent appointed by the Corporation all monies and property held
     hereunder (less such amount as the Agent is entitled to retain pursuant to
     Section 7) upon presentation of the document appointing the new escrow
     agent and its acceptance thereof. If no new Agent is so appointed within
     the 60-day period following such notice of resignation, the Agent may
     deposit the aforesaid monies and property with any court it deems
     appropriate.
