Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company and

2
(i) to place in an account (the "Lost Pines Proceeds Account")

(ii) the Collateral Agent and the Company may execute an escrow and
exchange agreement with respect to the Lost Pines Proceeds Account, in

intended to assure that the Lost Pines Proceeds Account is a "qualified
