         4. The Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent has agreed to accept its duties
under this Agreement on the following terms and conditions:

                  (a) Liability of the Escrow Agent. (i) The Escrow Agent shall
have no liability or obligation with respect to the Escrow Fund or under this
Agreement except for the Escrow Agent's willful misconduct or gross negligence.
The Escrow Agent's sole responsibility shall be for the safekeeping and
distribution of the Escrow Fund 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 of any fact or circumstance not specifically
set forth in this Agreement. 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 therein, 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 to conform to the
provisions of this Agreement. In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for
incidental, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages. The Escrow
Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal action or commence any proceeding
in connection with this Agreement, or to appear in, prosecute or defend any such
legal action or proceeding.

                  (ii) The Escrow Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion,
to comply with orders issued or process entered by any court with respect to the
Escrow Fund, without determination by the Escrow Agent of such court's
jurisdiction in the matter. If any portion of the Escrow Fund 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 Escrow Fund
shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in case any order, judgment
or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such Escrow Fund or
any part of it, 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 is 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 to this Agreement or to any other person or entity by reason of such
compliance even though such order, writ, judgment decree may be subsequently
reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

                  (iii) The Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel selected
by it in connection with the Escrow Agent's duties under this Agreement and such
counsel's fees and expenses shall be paid by the Settlement Fund.

                  (iv) The Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges its other capacities
and obligations other than as Escrow Agent in the matters relating to, among
other things, this

                                       3
<PAGE>

Agreement, the Action and the Stipulation, and agrees that this Section 4 shall
only be applicable to the Escrow Agent in its capacity as Escrow Agent under
this Agreement.

                  (b) Fees and Expenses. The Escrow Agent shall be paid
reasonable fees and reimbursed for its expenses in connection with its acting as
the Escrow Agent, and such fees and expenses shall be paid from the Settlement
Fund. Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel, solely in their capacity as supervisors of
the administration of the Settlement Fund pursuant to paragraph 12 of the
Stipulation, agree to pay these sums upon demand.

                  (c) Controversies. If any controversy arises between the
parties to this Agreement, or with any other party, concerning the subject
matter of this Agreement, its terms or conditions, the Escrow Agent will not be
required to determine the controversy or to take any action regarding it. The
Escrow Agent may hold all documents and property and may wait for settlement of
any such controversy by final appropriate legal proceedings or other means as,
in the Escrow Agent's reasonable discretion, may be required, despite what may
be set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. In such event, the Escrow Agent will
not be liable for interest or damage. Furthermore, if such controversy has not
been resolved within sixty (60) days, the Escrow Agent may at its option, file
an action of interpleader requiring the parties to answer and litigate any
claims and rights among themselves and to the extent required or permitted by
law, the Escrow Agent may deliver the Escrow Fund to the court that the Escrow
Agent files such action of interpleader with for holding and disposition in
accordance with the instructions of such court. Upon initiating such action, the
Escrow Agent shall be fully released and discharged of and from all obligations
and liability imposed by the terms of this Agreement, except for obligations or
liabilities arising by reason of the prior gross negligence or willful
misconduct on the part of the Escrow Agent.

                  (d) Resignation of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent may
resign at any time upon giving at least thirty (30) days' written notice to the
parties hereto; provided, however, that no such resignation shall become
effective until the appointment of a successor escrow agent by Plaintiffs'
Co-Lead Counsel. Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel may also request the Court in the
Action to appoint a successor escrow agent. The successor escrow agent shall
execute and deliver an instrument accepting such appointment and it shall,
without further acts, be vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers
and duties of the predecessor escrow agent as if originally named as the Escrow
Agent. Thereafter, the Escrow Agent shall be discharged from any further duties
and liability under this Agreement, except for obligations or liabilities
arising by reason of the prior gross negligence or willful misconduct on the
part of the Escrow Agent.

                  (e) Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Escrow Agent
from representing the Plaintiffs in any connection or respect whatsoever.

         5. Notice Provisions. All notices permitted or required to be given or
transmitted to any person pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be
deemed to have been properly given and received when actually delivered to and
receipted for by such person or when mailed to such person by certified or
registered U.S. Mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. In the case of
any notice given or transmitted to any party hereto by mail, as aforesaid, such
notice shall be deemed to have been properly given or transmitted if mailed to
such person at its address

other address as such person shall have furnished to the other party from time

conflicts, of the State of Texas shall govern the enforceability and validity of
this Agreement, the construction of its terms and the interpretation of the
rights and duties of the parties. The Court in the Action shall have the
continuing jurisdiction over the parties hereto for purposes of construing and
enforcing this Agreement.

         7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall constitute one agreement,

counterpart.

BETWEEN AND AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND
MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL

         9. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER

THIS AGREEMENT, THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, THE ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT OR
THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF THE PARTIES IN
THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

         10. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest of

defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to the Holders (as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement), Assignor hereby assigns, transfers and delivers
Certificate No. 002 representing 580 Common Units of Capital Lending (the "LLC
Interest") to Assignee, on behalf of the Authorized Claimants as part of the
Settlement Fund, including all related rights of Assignor under the Regulations
free and clear of liens, claims, charges, encumbrances, restrictions, and voting
agreements (except as otherwise set forth in the organizational documents of
Capital Lending, agreements between Capital Lending and the holders of the
common equity securities of Capital Lending or the Stipulation and the other
agreements, instruments or other documents delivered pursuant to the
Stipulation).

                  (b) Upon execution of this Agreement, Assignor shall deliver
to the Escrow Agent, on behalf of the Authorized Claimants as part of the
Settlement Fund, in accordance with the written instructions of the Escrow Agent
to be delivered by the Escrow Agent to Assignor as soon as practicable after the
date of this Agreement, the Certificate endorsed in blank, medallion signature
guaranteed or accompanied by duly executed assignment documents to be held by
the Escrow Agent in escrow pending (i) a distribution of Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and the Stipulation or (ii) the
Repurchase described in Section 5 below.

                  (c) Assignor hereby assigns, transfers and delivers to
Assignee, on behalf of the Authorized Claimants as part of the Settlement Fund,
all of its right, title and interest to any distribution of cash or property
from Capital Lending with respect to the LLC Interest in accordance with Section
7.3 and/or Section 7.4 of the Regulations (each, an "Assigned Distribution") to
the extent the amount of such Assigned Distribution exceeds the amount of taxes
payable by Assignor on the amount of income allocable to Assignor with respect
to the LLC Interest for the fiscal quarter for which such Tax Distribution (as
defined in the Regulations) were made.

         2. Assumption and Acceptance. Assignee hereby accepts the foregoing
assignments and assumes the obligations of Assignor under the Regulations
relating thereto, to the extent applicable, and agrees to be bound by the terms
of the Regulations.

         3. Termination or Failure of Settlement. If the Settlement is
terminated or fails to become effective for any reason, Assignee shall deliver
to Assignor the Certificate endorsed in blank or accompanied by duly executed
assignment documents and all right, title and interest in the Certificate and
the LLC Interest represented thereby, including all right, title and interest to
Assigned Distributions, shall revert back to, and vest in, Assignor immediately
upon such termination or failure of the Settlement.

         4. Regulations. Assignor and Assignee agree that the LLC Interest and
any Assigned Distribution is subject to and bound by the terms of the
Regulations and the Stipulation.

         5. Repurchase.

                  (a) In the event that the Escrow Agent has not received a
written notice stating that a registration statement relating to the
distribution of Registrable Securities to the Authorized Claimants has been
declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on or before
the seven year anniversary date of this Agreement, then the Plaintiffs' Co-Lead
Counsel, in their sole discretion, may cause Assignor to repurchase (the
"Repurchase") all but not less than all of the LLC Interest, including all
right, title and interest to the Assigned Distributions (together, the
"Repurchase Interest") for the price determined in accordance with Section 5(b)
below (the "Repurchase Price"). The Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel shall jointly
give Assignor 90 days' prior written notice of exercise (the "Repurchase
Notice"). The Company shall pay to the Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel, as Escrow
Agents under the Stipulation, the Repurchase Price on the 91st day following
written notice of exercise to be applied to the Settlement Fund pursuant to the
Stipulation.

                  (b) The Repurchase Price shall be as determined by Assignor
and the Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel. If the parties cannot agree as to the
Repurchase Price, the Repurchase Price shall be the fair market value of the
Repurchase Interest determined by an independent appraiser or investment banker
selected jointly by the parties. The Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel, solely in
their capacity as supervisors of the administration of the Settlement pursuant
to paragraph 12 of the Stipulation, agree to cause the Settlement Fund to pay
the costs of such valuation or appraisal.

         6. Address for Distributions and Notifications. Assignor and Assignee
hereby instruct the Manager to henceforth send all Assigned Distributions to
Assignee, on behalf of the Authorized Claimants as part of the Settlement Fund,
in accordance with the written instructions of Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel to be
delivered by Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel to the Manager as soon as practicable
after the date of this Agreement.

         7. Further Assurances. Assignor hereby agrees to execute and deliver
such further documents and instruments of conveyance and transfer and to take
such other action as Assignee may reasonably request to effectively convey and
transfer to Assignee any of the rights, interests or documents intended to be
transferred and assigned hereby. In addition, Assignor hereby agrees to deliver
to Assignee any certification or other documentation regarding the calculation
or payment of the Assigned Distributions.

         8. Binding Effect. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their
respective successors and assigns.

         9. Governing Law. The internal substantive laws, and not the laws of
conflicts, of the State of Texas shall govern the enforceability and validity of
this Agreement, the construction of its terms and the interpretation of the
rights and duties of the parties. The Court

                                       3

in the Action shall have continuing jurisdiction over the parties hereto for the
purpose of construing and enforcing this Agreement.

         10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents delivered
pursuant to this Agreement embody the entire agreement and understanding of the
parties hereto in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which
taken together shall constitute but one agreement.
