Upon receipt by the Voting Trust of the certificates representing

subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall

(the "Voting Trust Certificates") representing the shares of Common
Stock so deposited by such Shareholder.
All certificates of Securities transferred and
delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Voting Trust Agreement
shall be surrendered by the Trustee to the Company and cancelled,
and new certificates therefor shall be issued to and held by the
Trustee in the name of "Richard A. Friedman as Trustee under the

any state, or any rule or regulation thereunder) or as otherwise
may be reasonably required by the Trustee.

Upon the termination of this Voting
Trust Agreement as provided in Section 7 hereof, the Trustee, at
such time as the Trustee may choose during the period commencing
twenty (20) days before and ending twenty (20) days after such
termination, shall mail written notice of such termination to the
registered owners of the Voting Trust Certificates, at the

provide to the Transfer Agent any documents requested by the
Transfer Agent to effect the issuance or delivery of the
aforementioned certificates.
At any time subsequent to thirty (30) days after
the termination of this Voting Trust Agreement, the Trustee may
deposit Securities with the Company equal to the number of
Securities represented by the Voting Trust Certificates then
outstanding, with authority in writing to the Company to deliver
the Securities in exchange for such Voting Trust Certificates. Upon
such deposit, all further liability of the Trustee for the delivery
of the Securities and the delivery or payment of dividends upon
surrender of the Voting Trust Certificates shall cease, and the
Trustee shall not be required to take any further action
hereunder.
10. Dividends and Other
Distributions. If
any dividend or other distribution in respect of the Securities
deposited with the Trustee is paid, in whole or in part, in stock
having general voting powers, the Trustee shall likewise hold,
subject to the terms of this Voting Trust Agreement, the Securities
which are received by the Trustee on account of such
dividend
