              DONALDSON, LUFKIN & JENRETTE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

       Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

                                 June 30, 1996


1.   Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include Donaldson, Lufkin &
Jenrette, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("DLJ" or the "Company"). Prior to October
30, 1995, the Company was wholly owned by The Equitable Companies Incorporated
and its subsidiaries (together, "Equitable"). After the completion of an
initial public offering in October 1995, Equitable's ownership in the Company
was reduced from 100 percent to 80.2 percent. The Company's separate financial
statements reflect Equitable's cost basis established at the time of
Equitable's acquisition of the Company in 1985.

Certain financial information that is normally included in annual consolidated
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles but is not required for interim reporting purposes has been
condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements
reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal,
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated
financial position and results of operations for the interim periods
presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results for the entire year. These financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 1995 included on Form 10-K
filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1934.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to
conform to the 1996 presentation.

2.   Income Taxes

Income taxes for interim period condensed consolidated financial statements
have been accrued using the Company's estimated effective tax rate. Net
Federal income tax equivalents paid to Equitable were $72.5 million and $93.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

3.   Borrowings

Long-term borrowings, including current maturities of $8.0 million and $110.3
million at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively, consist of the
following:

       Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


In January 1996, the Swiss franc bonds of $105.5 million plus accrued interest
were repaid in full.

On February 12, 1996, a shelf registration statement, which enables the
Company to issue from time to time up to $500 million in aggregate public
offering price of Senior Debt Securities and/or Preferred Stock, was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. On February 15, 1996, the
Company completed an offering under such shelf registration statement of $250
million aggregate principal amount of its 5 5/8% Medium-Term Notes due
February 15, 2016. The notes are repayable by the Company, in whole or in
part, at the option of the holders on February 15, 2001.

On July 3, 1996, the Company filed a registration statement which, when
effective, will enable the Company to issue up to $500 million in aggregate
principal amount of Senior, Subordinated, and Junior Subordinated Debt
Securities and/or Preferred Stock of the Company and/or preferred securities
of certain of its subsidiaries and/or guarantees by the Company of such
preferred securities.

Interest paid on all borrowings and financing arrangements amounted to $1.3
billion and $1.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

At June 30, 1996, the Company has committed credit facilities which enables it
to borrow up to $1.28 billion on a secured basis and $650 million on an
unsecured basis. Interest rates to be charged are based upon Federal funds,
Eurodollar or negotiated rates, as applicable. There were no borrowings
outstanding at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 under these agreements.

4.   Long-term Corporate Development Investments

Long-term corporate development investments represent the Company's
involvement in private debt and equity investments which generally have no
readily available market or may otherwise be restricted as to resale under the
Securities Act of 1933. Accordingly, these investments are carried at
estimated fair value as determined by the Finance Committee of the Board of
Directors. The cost of these investments was $306.9 million and $276.2 million
at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively. The decrease in net
unrealized appreciation of long-term corporate development investments
amounted to $89.2 million and $36.2 million for the six months ended June 30,
1996 and 1995, respectively. Changes in unrealized appreciation arising from
changes in fair value or upon realization are reflected in revenues, principal
transactions-net, investment in the condensed consolidated statements of
income.

5.   Net Capital

The Company's wholly owned principal subsidiary, Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette
Securities Corporation ("DLJSC"), is a registered broker-dealer, a registered
futures commission merchant and member firm of The New York Stock Exchange,
Inc. (the "NYSE") and, accordingly, is subject to the minimum net capital
requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the NYSE and the
Commodities Futures Trading Commission. As such, it is subject to the NYSE's
net capital rule which conforms to the Uniform Net Capital Rule pursuant to
rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under the alternative
method permitted by this rule, the required net capital, as defined, shall not
be less than two percent of aggregate debit balances arising from customer
transactions, as defined, or four percent of segregated funds, as defined,
whichever is greater. The NYSE may also require a member firm to reduce its
business if its net capital is less than four percent of aggregate debit
balances and may prohibit a member firm from expanding its business and
declaring cash dividends if its net capital is less than five percent of
aggregate debit balances. At June 30, 1996, DLJSC's net capital of
approximately $670.5 million was 22 percent of aggregate debit balances and in
excess of the minimum requirement by approximately $602.9 million.

Certain U.S. and foreign subsidiaries of the Company are subject to net
capital requirements of their respective regulatory agencies. At June 30,
1996, the Company and its subsidiaries were in compliance with all applicable
regulatory capital adequacy requirements.

6.   Earnings Per Share

Earnings per common share and pro forma earnings per share are computed by
dividing net income applicable to common shares by the weighted average or the
pro forma number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents
outstanding during each period presented and after deducting the dividends on
preferred stock requirements. Weighted average common shares outstanding are
the same for both primary and fully diluted earnings per common share. The
Restricted Stock Units issued in October 1995 are considered common stock
equivalents upon issuance and also have a dilutive effect on the Company's
historical earnings per share amounts. Weighted average common shares
outstanding have been adjusted for the dilutive effect of the units on the
Company's historical pro forma earnings per share using the treasury stock
method.

7.   Commitments and Contingencies

At June 30, 1996, the Company was contingently liable for unsecured letters of
credit of approximately $128.6 million.

As a securities broker and dealer, risk is an inherent part of the Company's
business activities. The principal types of risks involved in the Company's
activities are market risk, credit or counterparty risk and transaction risk.
The Company has developed an infrastructure to control, monitor and manage
each type of risk. For a further discussion of these matters, refer to Notes 9
and 10 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report
on the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

8.   Employee Benefit Plans

In addition to the employee benefit plans disclosed in the Company's Form 10-K
for December 31, 1995, the Company maintains the following plans.

1996 Stock Option Plan
During the second quarter of 1996, the stockholders approved the 1996 Stock
Option Plan. Options to purchase a maximum of approximately 8.8 million shares
of Common Stock, exclusive of forfeitures from the 1995 Stock Option Plan, are
available under the 1996 Stock Option Plan. As of June 30, 1996, options to
purchase an aggregate 577,500 shares of Common Stock with exercise prices
ranging from $29.875-32.50 were outstanding.

1996 Incentive Compensation
During the second quarter of 1996, the stockholders approved the 1996
Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan is effective January 1,
1996. Awards under the Plan are determined by the Compensation and Management
Committee of the Board of Directors. The Plan provides for the creation of
short term and long term award pools to be awarded to key employees of the
Company. Short term award pools are for a performance period up to two years
and are based on 10% of pre-tax earnings, as defined. Long term award pools
are for performance periods of three to 10 years and are based on a percentage
of pre-tax earnings and varies with the Company's average return on common
equity during the performance period. Participants may receive awards in the
form of cash, options, shares or restricted stock units, however stock-based
payments are limited to a total of 8.8 million shares. Under certain
circumstances, participants may defer the receipt of part or all of any award.

9.   Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company enters into certain contractual agreements referred to as
derivatives or off-balance sheet financial instruments involving futures,
forwards and options. The Company's derivative activities consist of writing
over-the-counter options to accommodate its customers' needs, trading in
forward contracts in U.S. government and agency issued or guaranteed
securities and in futures contracts on equity-based indices, interest rate
instruments and currencies and issuing structured notes. The Company's
involvement in swap contracts is not significant. Substantially all of the
Company's activities related to derivatives are, by their nature, trading
activities which are primarily for the purpose of customer accommodations.

Option contracts are typically written for a duration of less than 13 months.
The notional value of written option contracts outstanding was approximately
$3.5 billion at June 30, 1996. These written option contracts are
substantially covered by various financial instruments that the Company has
purchased or sold as principal.

The notional contract and market values of the forward and futures contracts

10.  Legal Proceedings

         Certain significant legal proceedings and matters have been
previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1995 and there have been no material developments in such
proceedings and matters. With respect to the National Gypsum Corporation
litigation, the Bankruptcy Court has remanded the Texas State Court action to
state court.

In addition to the significant proceedings and matters referred to above, the
Company has been named as a defendant in a number of actions relating to its
various businesses including various civil actions and arbitrations arising
out of its activities as a broker-dealer in securities, as an underwriter and
as an employer and arising out of alleged employee misconduct. Some of the
actions have been brought on behalf of various classes of claimants and seek
damages of material or indeterminate amounts. The Company is also involved,
from time to time, in proceedings with, and investigations by, governmental
agencies and self-regulatory organizations. Although there can be no assurance
that such other actions, proceedings, investigations and litigation will not
have a material adverse effect on the results of operations of the Company in
any future period, depending in part on the results for such period, in the
opinion of management of the Company the ultimate resolution of any such other
actions, proceedings, investigations and litigation against the Company will
not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition
and/or results of operations of the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following analysis of the consolidated results of operations and financial
condition of Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, Inc. and Subsidiaries should be
read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and
the related Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included
elsewhere herein, and with the Management's Discussion and Analysis section
included in the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT

         The Company's principal business activities, which consist of
investment and merchant banking, securities sales and trading and
correspondent brokerage services are, by their nature, highly competitive and
subject to general market conditions, volatile trading markets and
fluctuations in the volume of market activity. Consequently, the Company's net
income and revenues have been and are likely to continue to be, subject to
wide fluctuations, reflecting the impact of many factors beyond the Company's
control, including securities market conditions, the level and volatility of
interest rates, competitive conditions and the size and timing of
transactions.

         The strong conditions that existed in the second half of 1995
continued to improve in the first half of 1996. Rising stock prices and record
levels of underwriting improved operating results throughout the securities
industry.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

         On July 3, 1996, the Company filed a registration statement which,
when effective, will enable the Company to issue up to $500 million in
aggregate principal amount of Senior, Subordinated, and Junior Subordinated
Debt Securities and/or Preferred Stock of the Company and/or preferred
securities of certain of its subsidiaries and/or guarantees by the Company of
such preferred securities.

         During the second quarter of 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." The new standard
provides more consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial
assets that are sales from those that are secured borrowings, and provides
guidance on the recognition and measurement of servicing assets and
liabilities. The new standard is to be applied prospectively to transactions
which occur after December 31, 1996. The Company is currently evaluating the
impact of this standard.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Quarter Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 1995

         Total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 were $991.2
million, an increase of $299.9 million or 43.4 % over the quarter ended June
30, 1995. Revenues increased in most of the Company's major areas of activity
during the second quarter of 1996.

         Commission revenues increased by $34.7 million or 29.5% to $152.5
million due to increased business in all areas and is generally consistent
with the overall growth in listed share volume on major equity exchanges.

million. The Company experienced increases in all areas of underwriting during
the second quarter of 1996.

         Interest, net of interest expense to finance U.S. government, agency
and mortgage-backed securities, increased by $22.8 million or 10.0% to $251.1
million. Higher levels of customer margin balances and securities
loaned/borrowed activity at Pershing accounted for approximately one half of
the increase. The remaining increase was due to higher levels of inventory in
the Fixed Income Division and the full quarter impact of the Latin America
business which commenced operations in March of 1995.

taxes, increased by 10.7% due to expansion in various business groups. At June

1995, an increase of 729 or 15.6%.

         Interest expense increased $7.6 million or 4.5% to $177.5 million.

dealers and customers in the correspondent clearing business at Pershing and
expanded levels of fixed income related products.

          All other expenses, as noted below, increased by $71.7 million or
59.7% to $191.7 million for the second quarter of 1996.

$8.3 million due to increased share volume, underwriting related expenses and

million as a result of the relocation of the Company's principal office in the
U.S. and the expansion of the Company's overseas offices. Communications costs
increased by $2.9 million. All other operating expenses increased by $51.9
million. Included therein are data processing, professional fees, travel and
entertainment, and printing and stationery which increased by $20.7 million
reflecting an overall increase in the level of business activity. In addition,
for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, $23.0 million of expenses were incurred
for mortgage-related securities previously underwritten by the Company.

         The Company's income tax provision for the second quarter of 1996 and

<PAGE>







         The Company's income tax provision for the six months ended June 30,

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's assets are highly liquid with the majority consisting
of securities inventories and collateralized receivables, both of which
fluctuate depending on the levels of customer business and proprietary
trading. Such collateralized receivables consist primarily of resale
agreements and securities borrowed, both of which are secured by U.S.
government and agency securities and highly marketable corporate debt and
equity securities. In addition, the Company has significant receivables from
customers, brokers and dealers which turn over frequently. As a securities
dealer, the Company may carry significant levels of trading inventories to
meet client needs. As such, the Company's total assets or the individual
components of total assets vary significantly from period to period because of
changes relating to customer needs, economic and market conditions and
proprietary trading strategies. A relatively small percentage of total assets
is fixed or held for a period of longer than one year. The Company's total
assets at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 were $47.7 billion and $44.6
billion, respectively.

         The majority of the Company's assets are financed through daily
operations by repurchase agreements, securities sold not yet purchased,
securities loaned, bank loans, and through payables to customers and brokers
and dealers. Short-term funding is generally obtained at rates related to
Federal funds, LIBOR and money market rates. Other borrowing costs are
negotiated depending upon prevailing market conditions. The Company monitors
overall liquidity by tracking the extent to which unencumbered marketable
assets exceed short-term unsecured borrowings.

         The Company maintains borrowing relationships with a broad range of
banks, financial institutions, counterparties and others including $6.0
billion at June 30, 1996 in uncommitted and committed bank credit lines with
50 domestic and international banks. These include $4.06 billion of
uncommitted bank credit lines, $1.28 billion of secured committed bank lines
and $650 million of unsecured committed bank lines.

         Certain of the Company's businesses are capital intensive. In
addition to normal operating requirements, capital is required to cover
financing and regulatory charges on securities inventories, merchant banking
investments and investments in fixed assets. The Company's overall capital
needs are continually reviewed to ensure that its capital base can
appropriately support the anticipated needs of its business units as well as
the regulatory capital requirements of subsidiaries. Based upon these
analyses, management believes that the Company's debt and equity base is
adequate for current operating levels. The Company has been active in raising
additional long-term financing, including extending the maturity of its $250
million senior subordinated revolving credit agreement and increasing the
amount of the credit available thereunder to $325.0 million in 1995. As of
June 30, 1996, $250.0 million was outstanding under this facility.
Additionally, the Company increased the amount of credit available under its
unsecured credit facility to $650 million. There were no borrowings
outstanding under this facility at June 30, 1996.

         Mortgages and other receivables collateralized by real estate assets
and real estate owned amounting to $540.1 million at June 30, 1996 and $466.1
million at December 31, 1995, generally represent the Company's interest in
mortgages receivable including certain mortgage-related securities previously
underwritten by the Company which were primarily repurchased in 1994, and are
carried at amounts approximating fair value, determined by, among other
things, the discounted cash flow and/or estimated sales prices of the
underlying properties.

         In March 1996, the Company moved its principal offices from 140
Broadway to 277 Park Avenue in New York City. The Company is presently
financing expenditures related to the move from currently available operating
capital.

         DLJSC is subject to the capital requirements of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the Commodities
Futures Trading Commission and the Chicago Board of Trade, all of which ensure
the general capital adequacy and liquidity of broker-dealers and futures
commission merchants. DLJSC has consistently maintained capital substantially
in excess of the minimum requirements of such capital rules. At June 30, 1996,
DLJSC had aggregate regulatory "net capital," after adjustments required by
Rule 15c3-1 under the Exchange Act of 1934, of approximately $670.5 million,
which exceeded minimum net capital requirements by $602.9 million and which
exceeded the net capital required by DLJSC's most restrictive debt covenants
by $445.0 million.

         On October 30, 1995, the Company completed an Initial Public Offering
(IPO) of its shares. The Company's net proceeds from the IPO totaled $81.2
million. Concurrent with the IPO, the Company completed the offering of $500
million aggregate principal amount of 6 7/8% Senior Notes due November 1, 2005
(the "Senior Debt Offering"). The proceeds from this offering totaled $493.5
million (net of underwriting discounts and commissions).

         On February 12, 1996, a shelf registration statement, which enables
the Company to issue up to $500 million in aggregate public offering price of
Senior Debt Securities and/or Preferred Stock, was declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. On February 15, 1996, the Company
completed an offering under such shelf registration statement of $250 million
aggregate principal amount of its 5 5/8% Medium-Term Notes due February 15,
2016. The notes are repayable by the Company, in whole or in part, at the
option of the holders on February 15, 2001. Net proceeds to the Company from
this offering were $248.3 million (net of underwriting discounts and
commissions).

         On July 3, 1996, the Company filed a registration statement which,
when effective, will enable the Company to issue up to $500 million in
aggregate principal amount of Senior, Subordinated, and Junior Subordinated
Debt Securities and/or Preferred Stock of the Company and/or preferred
securities of certain of its subsidiaries and/or guarantees by the Company of
such preferred securities.

         The Company's overall capital and funding needs are continually
reviewed to ensure that its capital base can support the estimated needs of
its business units.

Cash Flows

         The Company's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows
classify cash flow into three broad categories: cash flows from operating
activities, investing activities and financing activities. The Company's net
cash flows are principally associated with operating and financing activities,
which support the Company's trading, customer and banking activities.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995

         Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1996 and 1995, totaled $140.4
million and $129.8 million, respectively, an increase of $32.7 million and
$34.9 million, respectively, for the comparable periods.

         Cash provided by (used in) operating activities totaled $432.1
million and $(860.6) million for the first six months of 1996 and 1995,
respectively, and reflects primarily an increase in operating liabilities in
1996 and an increase in operating assets in 1995. In the first six months of
1996, there were increases in payables to customers of $599.1 million,
payables to brokers, dealers and other of $1.0 billion, securities loaned of
$386.6 million and securities sold not yet purchased of $217.3 million. These
increases were partially offset by increases in assets including receivables
from customers of $696.4 million, securities borrowed of $1.1 billion, and all
other assets and liabilities- net, which rose by $145.8 million. In the first
six months of 1995, there were increases in securities sold not yet purchased
of $1.2 billion and securities loaned of $791.6 million. These increases were
offset by increases in assets including securities borrowed of $1.4 billion,
trading inventories of $1.2 billion and all other receivables and payables-
net, which rose by $243.9 million.

         During the first six months of 1996 and 1995, net cash used in
investing activities of $188.7 million and $39.3 million, respectively was
comprised primarily of fixed asset purchases in connection with the Company's
move of its principal offices and purchases of mortgages receivables
collateralized by real estate assets.

         For the first six months of 1996 and 1995, net cash (used in)
provided by financing activities totaled $(210.8) million and $934.8 million,
respectively. In the first quarter of 1996, $105.5 million was used to repay
Swiss Franc Bonds which matured in January 1996 and $249.5 million was
provided by the issuance of Medium-Term Notes. In addition, $332.3 million was
used to repay short term financings. During the first six months of 1995,
proceeds from short term financings and a secured term loan agreement amounted
to $778.2 million and $250.0 million, respectively.

DERIVATIVE  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         The Company's derivative activities are not as extensive as many of
its competitors. Instead, the Company has focused its derivative activities on
writing over-the-counter ("OTC") options to accommodate its customers needs,
trading in forward contracts in U.S. government and agency issued or
guaranteed securities and engaging in futures contracts on equity-based
indices, interest rate instruments, and currencies, and issuing structured
notes. The Company's involvement in swap contracts is not significant. As a
result, the Company's involvement in derivative products is related primarily
to revenue generation through the provision of products to its clients as
opposed to hedges against the Company's own positions.

     Options Contracts:
         Option contracts are typically written for a duration of less than 13
months. Revenues from these activities (net of related interest expenses) were
approximately $31.9 million and $44 million for the six months ended June 30,
1996 and 1995, respectively. Option writing revenues are primarily from the
amortization of option premiums. The decrease in revenues primarily resulted
from lower levels of activity, both in size and number of transactions, by the
Company's institutional customers. These reductions were caused by a number of
factors, including market conditions and competition from other financial
institutions.

         The notional value of written options contracts outstanding was
approximately $3.5 billion and $3.9 billion at June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The decrease in the notional value of options was due primarily
to decreases in customer activity related to U.S. government obligations. Such
written option contracts are substantially covered by various financial
instruments that the Company has purchased or sold as principal.

     Futures and Forward Contracts:
         As part of the Company's trading activities, including trading
activities in the related cash market instruments, the Company enters into
forward and futures contracts primarily involving securities, foreign
currencies, indices and forward rate agreements. Such forward and futures
contracts are entered into as part of the Company's covering transactions and
generally are not used for speculative purposes.

         Net trading gains (losses) on forward contracts were $(39.1) million
and $120 million and net trading gains (losses) on futures contracts were $8.5
million and $(52) million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

          The notional contract and market values of the forward and futures
Contracts at June 30, 1996 and 1995, were as follows:

                                     June 30, 1996            June 30, 1995

     Structured Notes:

         Structured notes are customized derivative instruments in which the
amount of interest or principal paid on a debt obligation is linked to
movements in the value of cash market financial instruments. At June 30, 1996
and 1995, the Company had issued structured notes with principal amounts of
$143.1 million and $113.0 million outstanding, respectively. The Company
expects the volume of this activity to increase in the future. The Company
covers its obligations on structured notes primarily by purchasing and selling
the securities to which the value of its structured notes are linked.


MERCHANT BANKING TRANSACTIONS

         The Company's merchant banking investments are carried at estimated
fair value as determined by the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors.
Changes in unrealized appreciation arising from changes in fair value or gains
or losses upon realization are reflected in principal transactions-net,
investments. At June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the Company's share in
its merchant banking investments amounted to $144.1 million and $210.1
million, respectively.


HIGH YIELD TRANSACTIONS

         The Company accounts for its high-yield inventory positions on a
market basis with unrealized gains and losses being recognized currently in
earnings. At June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the Company had long
inventory of $689.1 million and $500.7 million, respectively, and short
inventory of $384.8 million and $219.6 million, respectively, of high-yield
securities, which accounted for less than 6.0% of the Company's overall
inventory positions.

                                                Exhibit 10.81


                          INSURANCE AGREEMENT



          THIS INSURANCE AGREEMENT made and entered into as of

the 1st day of February, 1996, by and between DONALDSON,

LUFKIN & JENRETTE, INC., a Delaware corporation, with

principal offices and place of business in the State of New

York (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") and JEANNETTE

ELIASBERG, as Trustee of the Trust created under Agreement

dated December 22, 1993 between Theodore P. Shen, as Grantor,

and Jeannette Eliasberg, as Trustee (hereinafter referred to

as the "Owner"),


                           WITNESSETH THAT:


          WHEREAS, the Owner has obtained a policy of life

insurance insuring the joint and survivor lives of Theodore P.

Shen (hereinafter referred to as the "Insured") and his wife,

Carol Shen, (hereinafter referred to as the "Insured's Wife")

in the original face amount of Seven Million Two Hundred Fifty

Thousand Dollars ($7,250,000) (such policy being hereinafter

referred to as the "Insurance Contract") which is described in

Exhibit A attached hereto and by this reference made a part

hereof, and which was issued by the insurance company shown in

Exhibit A (hereinafter referred to as the "Insurer"); and


           WHEREAS, in consideration of past services rendered

and services to be rendered by the Insured, the Company wishes










     
<PAGE>



to pay a portion of the premiums due with respect to the

Insurance Contract, subject to certain repayment rights

described herein, all on the terms and conditions hereinafter

set forth; and


           WHEREAS, the Company wishes to have the Insurance

Contract collaterally assigned to it by the Owner in order to

secure the repayment to it of the aggregate premiums on the

Insurance Contract which the Company may pay pursuant to this

Insurance Agreement.


           NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and

of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties hereto

agree as follows:

           1.  (a)  Premium Payments.  Except as otherwise

provided herein, on or before March 15, 1996, and on or before

each of the following fourteen (14) consecutive annual premium

due dates with respect to the Insurance Contract (each such

premium due date hereinafter referred to as an "Anniversary

Date"), the Owner shall pay to the Insurer as and for a

portion of the premium due with respect to such Insurance

Contract an amount equal to the greater of (i) the total

premium less Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000) and (ii) the

economic benefit of the insurance protection then provided to

the Owner under the Insurance Contract and this Insurance

Agreement on the life or lives of such as are then living of

the Insured and the Insured's Wife, and the Company shall pay



                                  -2-





     
<PAGE>



to the Insurer as and for a portion of such premium an amount

equal to Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000).  The economic

benefit referred to in the preceding sentence shall be the

lesser of (i) the PS 58 cost for the insurance protection

referred to therein (as determined under tables published by

the Internal Revenue Service) and modified as appropriate (or,

if applicable, as specifically prescribed by the Internal

Revenue Service) to reflect that such insurance protection is

on the joint lives of the Insured and the Insured's Wife and

that the death benefit under such Insurance Contract is

payable only on the death of the second to die of the Insured

and the Insured's Wife) and (ii) if such insurance protection

is available from the Insurer as term insurance, the premium

for such insurance protection determined by reference to the

Insurer's current published premium rate for one-year term

life insurance protection available to all standard risks.

Thirty (30) days prior to each Anniversary Date on which

premium is payable hereunder, the Company shall notify the

Owner of the exact amount of the economic benefit the Owner is

obligated to pay hereunder.  Each of the Owner and the Company

shall promptly furnish the other evidence of timely payment of

the portion of each such premium it is obligated to pay

hereunder.

           (b)  Dividends.   After such time that premiums on

the Insurance Contract are no longer payable pursuant to

paragraph 1(a) hereof, dividends and other Policy Values shall



                                  -3-

be applied to the payment of premiums on the Insurance

Contract.  Dividends on the Insurance Contract not applied to

the payment of premiums pursuant to this subparagraph (b)

shall be used to purchase additional paid-up insurance or may

be accumulated with interest, as the Owner shall elect.  For

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, with respect to the

Insurance Contract, the term "Policy Values" shall include

dividends, dividend additions, dividend accumulations, the

cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract including the

cash surrender value of paid-up additions and supplemental

insurance rider additions and any other element of value which

would ordinarily be applied to the payment of premiums under a

premium "vanish" option.

           2.  Collateral Assignment.  (a)  To secure the

repayment to the Company to the extent possible of the

Repayment Amount (as defined in paragraph 5 hereunder) as

provided herein, the Owner shall assign the Insurance Contract

to the Company as collateral ("the Collateral Assignment")

under a Collateral Assignment Agreement substantially in the

form attached hereto as Exhibit B.  The Collateral Assignment

shall not be terminated (except as otherwise provided in this

Insurance Agreement), altered or amended by the Owner without

the express written consent of the Company.

           (b)  Except as provided in subparagraph (a) of this

paragraph 2, the Owner shall not transfer any interest in the

Insurance Contract during the term of this Insurance Agreement



                                 -4 -










     
<PAGE>



without the consent of the Company.  In the event of an

assignment by the Owner to which the Company has consented,

the references to "Owner" herein shall be deemed to refer to

the assignee or any subsequent assignee thereof for all

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, including for purposes

of this paragraph 2.  The Owner shall comply with the

notification requirements of the Insurer with respect to any

such assignment and shall deliver a copy of any such

notification to the Company.

            3.   Loans.  (a) In no event shall the Company have

any right to borrow from, or against the security of, the

Insurance Contract during the term of this Insurance

Agreement.

            (b)  The Owner shall have no right to borrow from,

or against the security of, the Insurance Contract during the

term of this Insurance Agreement to the extent that the amount

of aggregate indebtedness under, or secured by, the Insurance

Contract would thereafter exceed the loan value of the

Insurance Contract as determined immediately prior to the

first premium payment made by the Company pursuant to

paragraph 1 hereof except (i) as provided in subparagraph 8(f)

hereof, (ii) as provided in paragraph 11 hereof and (iii)

after the death of the Insured, to pay any increase in the

Owner's Federal, State or local income tax which is

attributable to the inclusion, if any, as an item of gross

income for purposes of computing such taxes of (A) the



                                  -5-









     
<PAGE>



economic benefit (as defined in paragraph 1 hereof) of the

insurance protection then provided to the Owner on the life of

the Insured's Wife under the Insurance Contract and this

Insurance Agreement and (B) any portion of, or increase in,

the cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract

(hereinafter "the Cash Surrender Value").

           4.  Term of Insurance Agreement.  This Insurance

Agreement and, except to the extent otherwise provided in

paragraph 9 hereof, the obligations of the Company hereunder

shall remain in force (regardless of whether the Owner has

assigned any portion or all of the Owner's rights, interests

and incidents of ownership in and to the Insurance Contract)

until the first to occur of:

           (a)  the death of the second to die of the

     Insured and the Insured's Wife;

           (b)  the surrender or cancellation of the

     Insurance Contract by the Owner prior to the death

     of the second to die of the Insured and the

     Insured's Wife; and

           (c)  the release of the Collateral Assignment by

     the Company pursuant to the provisions of paragraph

     8 hereof.

           5.  Repayment Amount.  The Repayment Amount as of

any time is the total amount of premiums on the Insurance

Contract paid by the Company (other than any premium or

portion thereof which consists of Restoration Amount as



                                  -6-





     
<PAGE>



defined in paragraph 11 hereunder), reduced by any premium

returns and reimbursement paid to the Company from any source

on account of such premiums paid and further reduced by any

unpaid portion of the Restoration Amount as set forth in

paragraph 11 hereunder.  In no event shall the amount payable

to the Company hereunder on account of the Repayment Amount

exceed (i) if payable by reason of the death of the Insured or

the Insured's Wife, the proceeds of the Insurance Contract

payable at such death or (ii) if payable by reason of the

surrender of the Insurance Contract or the withdrawal of any

Policy Values, the amount of Cash Surrender Value payable with

respect to such surrender or the amount of such Policy Values

so withdrawn.  If, on the complete surrender or cancellation

of the Insurance Contract or on the death of the second to die

of the Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Cash Surrender

Value or proceeds of the Insurance Contract, as the case may

be, are less than the Repayment Amount due to the Company

hereunder, none of the Owner, the Insured, the Insured's Wife,

or the personal representative of any of them shall have any

obligation to pay any part of such shortfall to the Company.

           6.  Death Benefit.  Upon the termination of this

Insurance Agreement on the death of the second to die of the

Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Company and the Owner

shall promptly take all action necessary to obtain the death

benefit provided under the Insurance Contract.  The Company

shall have the right to receive a portion of the death benefit



                                  -7-









     
<PAGE>



under the Insurance Contract equal to the Repayment Amount

determined as of the date of such death, subject to the

limitations of paragraph 5 hereunder.  The balance of the

death benefit provided under the Insurance Contract, if any,

shall be paid to the beneficiary or beneficiaries, and in the

manner and amounts, designated by the Owner in the beneficiary

designation for the Insurance Contract.  No amount shall be

paid from the death benefit under the Insurance Contract to

the Owner or the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by

the Owner until the entire Repayment Amount payable to the

Company has been paid.

           7.   Withdrawals from Insurance Contract; Surrender

or Cancellation.  (a)  Except to the extent Policy Values are

applied to pay premiums on the Insurance Contract pursuant to

paragraph 1(b) hereof or as otherwise provided in this

paragraph 7, (i) the Owner shall not surrender the Insurance

Contract or otherwise withdraw any Policy Values during the

term of this Insurance Agreement (including by cancellation of

the Insurance Contract) without the consent of the Company and

(ii) in the event that the Insurance Contract is surrendered

or Policy Values are withdrawn prior to the death of the

survivor of the Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Company

shall be entitled to receive the Repayment Amount as then

determined to the extent of the Cash Surrender Value payable

with respect to any such surrender or the Policy Values then

withdrawn, such Repayment Amount to be paid to the extent



                                  -8-





     
<PAGE>



possible first from the cash surrender value of paid up

additions and then from the remaining Cash Surrender Value so

payable.

            (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner shall

be permitted to withdraw Policy Values to the extent permitted

under the Insurance Contract (other than by surrender of the

Insurance Contract) without the consent of the Company and, in

the case of subparagraph (i) of this subparagraph (b), without

paying any portion of the Repayment Amount to the Company, as

shall be necessary to pay:

            (i)  Any increase in the Owner's Federal, State or

local income tax after, or by reason of, the death of the

Insured which is attributable to the inclusion of any portion

of, or an increase in, the Cash Surrender Value as an item of

gross income for purposes of computing the Owner's income

taxes; and

            (ii) The Repayment Amount at such time as the Owner

obtains the release of the Collateral Assignment pursuant to

the provisions of paragraph 8 hereunder.

            (c)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time as the Company, based on information

provided by the Insurer, notifies the Owner that the total

Augmented Cash Surrender Value is less than the Repayment

Amount if, prior to such time (i) the Augmented Cash Surrender

Value exceeded such Repayment Amount and (ii) either of the

following events has occurred: (A) the death of the Insured or



                                  -9-










     
<PAGE>



(B) an event to which subparagraph 9(b) hereof applies.  For

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, the Augmented Cash

Surrender Value as of any time shall be the amount by which

the total cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract as of

such time exceeds the cash surrender value of the Insurance

Contract determined immediately prior to the first premium

payment made by the Company pursuant to paragraph 1 hereof.

            (d)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time, if any, as the Insured is dismissed

from employment by the Company for cause.  For purposes of

this Insurance Agreement, "cause" means (i) the Insured's

willful failure to perform his duties as an officer and/or

employee of the Company (other than as a result of his total

or partial incapacity due to physical or mental illness and

excluding any action taken and any decision not to act if such

action is taken or such decision is made in the good faith

belief that it is in the furtherance of the business of the

Company), (ii) gross negligence or gross malfeasance in the

performance of such duties, (iii) a final finding by a court

or other governmental body with proper jurisdiction that

Insured engaged in an act or acts that (A) constitute a felony

under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or

(B) constitute a violation of Federal or State securities law,

if the Board of Directors determines that, by reason of such

finding, the continued employment of the Insured by the

Company would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its



                                 -10-









     
<PAGE>



business; or (iv) in the absence of any final finding by a

court or other governmental body with proper jurisdiction, a

determination by the Board of Directors in good faith that

Insured engaged in an act or acts that (A) constitute a felony

under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or

(B) constitute a violation of Federal or State securities law,

if the Board of Directors determines that, by reason of such

act or acts, the continued employment of the Insured by the

Company would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its

business.

            8.   Release of Collateral Assignment.  (a)  The

Owner shall obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment in

the manner set forth in subparagraph (f) of this paragraph 8

on the earliest to occur of (i) the Nontaxable Rollout Time

(as defined in subparagraph (b) of this paragraph 8), (ii) the

Post-Death Rollout Time (as defined in subparagraph (c) of

this paragraph 8) and (iii) the Applicable Anniversary Date

(as defined in subparagraph (d) of this paragraph 8).

            (b)  The Nontaxable Rollout Time shall mean the

earliest time after the last premium payment the Company is

obligated to make hereunder that (i) after payment of the

Repayment Amount from the Cash Surrender Value, based on

projections supplied by the Insurer (using a projected

dividend or interest rate approved by the Owner, provided that

such approval may not be unreasonably withheld), a death

benefit under the Insurance Contract of an amount not less



                                 -11-





     
<PAGE>



than the lesser of (A) the face amount of the Insurance

Contract immediately prior to the first premium payment made

by the Company hereunder or (B) the then amount of insurance

provided under the Insurance Contract may thereafter be

maintained for the joint and survivor lives of the Insured and

the Insured's Wife solely by the application of Policy Values

under the Insurance Contract without the payment of further

cash premiums and (ii) the Company provides the Owner with an

opinion of outside counsel recognized as expert in Federal tax

matters, and which opinion may be relied on by the Owner, that

the payment to the Company of the Repayment Amount and the

release of the Collateral Assignment will not be a Federal

taxable event with respect to the Owner or the Insured.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, within 30 days after

receipt of the opinion referred to in the preceding sentence,

the Owner obtains an opinion of independent counsel recognized

as expert in Federal tax matters that the payment to the

Company of the Repayment Amount and the release of the

Collateral Assignment will more likely than not be a Federal

taxable event with respect to the Owner or the Insured, the

Company and Owner shall refer the matter to a third

independent counsel acceptable to both and the Nontaxable

Rollout Time shall not be deemed to have occurred unless such

third counsel affirms the opinion originally supplied by the

Company.  For purposes of this paragraph, a Federal taxable

event shall mean the recognition of gross income or the making



                                 -12-









     
<PAGE>



of a taxable gift under the then applicable provisions of the

Internal Revenue Code.

           (c)  The Post-Death Rollout Time shall mean the

earliest time after the death of the Insured and after the

last premium payment the Company is obligated to make

hereunder that, based on projections supplied by the Insurer

(using a projected dividend or interest rate approved by the

Owner, provided that such approval may not be unreasonably

withheld), after payment from the Cash Surrender Value of the

Repayment Amount and all income tax liability of the Owner

arising by reason of such payment, a death benefit under the

Insurance Contract of an amount not less than the lesser of

(i) the face amount of the Insurance Contract immediately

prior to the first premium payment made by the Company

hereunder or (ii) the then amount of insurance provided under

the Insurance Contract may thereafter be maintained for the

life of the Insured's Wife solely by the application of Policy

Values under the Insurance Contract without the payment of

further cash premiums.

           (d)  The Applicable Anniversary Date shall be such

Anniversary Date, if any, on which the Owner in its sole and

absolute discretion consents to a request by the Company that

the Owner obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment,

which request by the Company and consent by the Owner shall be

made and given, if at all, in accordance with the provisions

of subparagraph (e) of this paragraph 8.



                                 -13-









     
<PAGE>



           (e)  On any Anniversary Date on which the Augmented

Cash Surrender Value exceeds the Repayment Amount as then

determined (but only on any such Anniversary Date), the

Company may request the Owner to obtain the release of the

Collateral Assignment in accordance with the provisions of

subparagraph (f) of this paragraph 8.  In determining whether

to consent to any such request, the Owner shall consider

primarily the interests of the Insured and shall not consent

to such request unless the Owner determines in its sole and

absolute discretion that it would be in the interests of the

Insured to do so.  Although the Owner, in determining whether

or not to consent to such request, shall consider primarily

the interests of the Insured (and may consult with the Insured

for purposes of making any such determination), such

determination shall be within the sole and absolute discretion

of the Owner.  The consent of the Owner with respect to any

request by the Company as herein described may be given only

on the Anniversary Date on which the Company makes such

request.

           (f)  To obtain the release of the Collateral

Assignment pursuant to the provisions of this subparagraph 8,

the Owner shall pay to the Company the Repayment Amount

determined as of the date of such payment and, solely as a

source of funding such payment, the Owner may borrow such

amount from the Insurance Contract and direct that the same be

paid to the Company.  Upon receipt of such payment, the



                                - 14 -









     
<PAGE>



Company shall release the Collateral Assignment by the

execution and delivery of an appropriate instrument of

release, and neither the Company nor the Company's assigns

shall thereafter have any further interest in and to the

Insurance Contract, either under the terms thereof or under

this Insurance Agreement.

           9.   Termination of Company's Obligation to Pay

Premiums.  Notwithstanding that this Insurance Agreement

remains in effect until the termination thereof pursuant to

paragraph 4 hereunder, the Company's obligation to make

further premium payments hereunder shall cease on the first to

occur, if any, of:

           (a)  the giving of notice by the Insured to the

     Company that the Company is thereafter relieved of

     any further obligation to make premium payments

     under this Insurance Agreement; and

           (b)  the failure of the Owner to pay the

     portion of any premium the Owner is obligated to pay

     hereunder within 30 days of written demand by the

     Company for such payment, which written demand may

     be made only after the Owner fails to pay its

     portion of premium within the grace period provided

     under the Insurance Contract with respect to such

     premium, provided that this subparagraph (b) shall

     not apply if the Company elects to pay the Owner's





                                 -15-









     
<PAGE>



     portion of such premium pursuant to paragraph 10

     hereunder.

           10.  Default by Owner.  If the Owner fails to pay

the portion of any premium due and payable which the Owner is

obligated to pay hereunder within the period described in

paragraph 9(b) hereof, the Company, in its sole discretion,

may elect to pay such portion of the premium, which amount

shall thereafter be recovered by the Company as part of the

Repayment Amount and, if the Company elects to pay such

portion, this Insurance Agreement shall thereafter continue to

apply as if the Owner had timely paid its portion of such

premium.  If the Owner fails to pay its portion of any premium

payable hereunder, the Company's sole remedy with respect to

such failure shall be (i) if the Company does not elect to pay

the Owner's portion of the premium pursuant to this paragraph

10, the cessation of the Company's obligation to make further

premium payments pursuant to paragraph 9(b) hereof or (ii) if

the Company elects to pay the Owner's portion of the premium

pursuant to this paragraph 10, the recovery of such amount as

part of the Repayment Amount.

           11.  Default by Company.  In the event that the

Company shall be in default as to any premium payment due

under paragraph 1 hereunder with respect to the Insurance

Contract, the Owner may borrow from the Insurance Contract, to

the extent permitted thereunder, all or part of the amount as

to which the Company is in default to be applied to the



                                 -16-







     
<PAGE>



payment of such premium.  Such borrowing and payment shall not

discharge the Company's obligation under paragraph 1 hereunder

with respect to such premium or any subsequent premiums.  With

respect to a default by the Company hereunder with respect to

premium payments, the Company shall be obligated (a) to repay

directly to the Insurer the full amount of any indebtedness

including accrued and unpaid interest incurred with respect to

the Insurance Contract pursuant to this paragraph and (b) to

repay to the Owner any amount which the Owner paid (i) as

premium which the Company was obligated to pay hereunder and

(ii) as interest on a loan from the Insurance Contract

pursuant to this paragraph 11, together with interest on the

amounts described in this clause (b) at a rate equal to the

interest rate applicable to policy loans with respect to the

Insurance Contract (the aggregate amounts referred to in this

sentence being herein referred to as the "Restoration

Amount").  If any portion of the Restoration Amount has not

been repaid by the Company prior to the termination of this

Insurance Agreement, the Repayment Amount payable to the

Company on such termination shall be reduced by such portion

of the Restoration Amount.  Nothing herein shall preclude the

Owner from recovering such additional damages, if any, as the

Owner shall sustain by reason of the Company's default

hereunder.

           12.  Notification of Insurer.  Except as otherwise

provided herein, at any time that the Company shall be



                                 -17-










     
<PAGE>



entitled under the provisions hereof to recover the Repayment

Amount with respect to the Insurance Contract, the Company

shall notify the Owner and the Insurer of the amount that the

Company claims it is entitled so to recover and, unless the

Owner objects in writing to the Company and the Insurer within

thirty (30) days of such notice, the Insurer is hereby

authorized to recognize such statement of the Company without

investigation or the giving of any notice and shall be fully

protected in paying such amount to the Company.  If the

Insurer receives written notice from the Owner controverting

the amount payable to the Company, the Insurer shall make no

payments with respect to such Insurance Contract except upon

written instructions signed by both the Owner and the Company

or in accordance with a final, non-appealable order of a court

of competent jurisdiction.  The written acknowledgment of

receipt by the Company of any funds paid to the Company

pursuant to its statement of the amount payable to it shall be

a full discharge and release of the Insurer by the Company

with respect to such payment.  The Insurer shall be relieved

of any and all responsibility to any party claiming an

interest in the Insurance Contract for any decrease in cash

value or death benefit resulting from the exercise of any

right as to which both the Owner and the Company have

consented or which is specifically permitted hereunder.

          13.   Owner.  The undersigned Owner shall be the sole

and absolute owner of the Insurance Contract and shall have



                                 -18-










     
<PAGE>



all rights of ownership in the Insurance Contract except to

the extent otherwise specifically provided in this Insurance

Agreement and the Collateral Assignment.  Without limiting any

other rights not specifically enumerated, the Owner

specifically reserves, subject to the Company's rights under

this Insurance Agreement, the right to designate the

beneficiary or beneficiaries of the death benefit payable

under the Insurance Contract and to elect any optional mode of

settlement permitted by the Insurance Contract or allowed by

the Insurer.

           14.  Premium Waiver.  For purposes of computing the

Repayment Amount, no premium waived under a premium waiver

provision of the Insurance Contract shall be treated as having

been paid by the Company.

           15.  Further Assurances.  Each of the Company and

the Owner shall execute and deliver such other instruments and

agreements as shall be necessary or appropriate to carry out

the intent of this Insurance Agreement.

           16.  Amendment.  Except as otherwise provided

herein, this Insurance Agreement may not be amended, altered

or modified, except by a written instrument signed by the

Company and the Owner, or their respective successors or

assigns, and may not be otherwise terminated except as

provided herein.

           17.  Binding Nature of Insurance Agreement.  This

Insurance Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to



                                 -19-

with respect to the Company, shall include, but shall not be

limited to, any person, firm, corporation or other entity

purchase or otherwise.

            18.  Notices.  Any notice, consent or demand

required or permitted to be given under the provisions of this

Insurance Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be deemed

to be dated and to have been duly given when delivered

Owner and the Company or in accordance with a final,

the Insurer by the Company with respect to such payment.  The

Insurer shall be relieved of any and all responsibility to any

party claiming an interest in the Insurance Contract for any

decrease in cash value or death benefit resulting from the

exercise of any right as to which both the Owner and the

Company have consented or which is specifically permitted

                          INSURANCE AGREEMENT



          THIS INSURANCE AGREEMENT made and entered into as of

the 1st day of February, 1996, by and between DONALDSON,

LUFKIN & JENRETTE, INC., a Delaware corporation, with

principal offices and place of business in the State of New

                          WITNESSETH THAT:


          WHEREAS, the Owner has obtained a policy of life

insurance insuring the joint and survivor lives of Theodore P.

Shen (hereinafter referred to as the "Insured") and his wife,

Carol Shen, (hereinafter referred to as the "Insured's Wife")

in the original face amount of Five Million Three Hundred

Eighty-Three Thousand Five Hundred and Fifty-Two Dollars

($5,383,552) (such policy being hereinafter referred to as the

"Insurance Contract") which is described in Exhibit A attached hereto and by

this reference made a part hereof, and which was

issued by the insurance company shown in Exhibit A

(hereinafter referred to as the "Insurer"); and












     
<PAGE>



          WHEREAS, in consideration of past services rendered

and services to be rendered by the Insured, the Company wishes

to pay a portion of the premiums due with respect to the

Insurance Contract, subject to certain repayment rights

described herein, all on the terms and conditions hereinafter

set forth; and


          WHEREAS, the Company wishes to have the Insurance

Contract collaterally assigned to it by the Owner in order to

secure the repayment to it of the aggregate premiums on the

Insurance Contract which the Company may pay pursuant to this

Insurance Agreement.


          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and

of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties hereto

agree as follows:

           1.   (a)  Premium Payments.  Except as otherwise

provided herein, on or before March 15, 1996, and on or before

each of the following fourteen (14) consecutive annual premium

due dates with respect to the Insurance Contract (each such

premium due date hereinafter referred to as an "Anniversary

Date"), the Owner shall pay to the Insurer as and for a

portion of the premium due with respect to such Insurance

Contract an amount equal to the greater of (i) the total

premium less Sixty Five Thousand Dollars ($65,000) and (ii)

the economic benefit of the insurance protection then provided

to the Owner under the Insurance Contract and this Insurance



                                  -2-





     
<PAGE>



Agreement on the life or lives of such as are then living of

the Insured and the Insured's Wife, and the Company shall pay

to the Insurer as and for a portion of such premium an amount

equal to Sixty Five Thousand Dollars ($65,000).  The economic

benefit referred to in the preceding sentence shall be the

lesser of (i) the PS 58 cost for the insurance protection

referred to therein (as determined under tables published by

the Internal Revenue Service) and modified as appropriate (or,

if applicable, as specifically prescribed by the Internal

Revenue Service) to reflect that such insurance protection is

on the joint lives of the Insured and the Insured's Wife and

that the death benefit under such Insurance Contract is

payable only on the death of the second to die of the Insured

and the Insured's Wife) and (ii) if such insurance protection

is available from the Insurer as term insurance, the premium

for such insurance protection determined by reference to the

Insurer's current published premium rate for one-year term

life insurance protection available to all standard risks.

Thirty (30) days prior to each Anniversary Date on which

premium is payable hereunder, the Company shall notify the

Owner of the exact amount of the economic benefit the Owner is

obligated to pay hereunder.  Each of the Owner and the Company

shall promptly furnish the other evidence of timely payment of

the portion of each such premium it is obligated to pay

hereunder.

<PAGE>



           (b)  Dividends.   After such time that premiums on

the Insurance Contract are no longer payable pursuant to

paragraph 1(a) hereof, dividends and other Policy Values shall

be applied to the payment of premiums on the Insurance

Contract.  Dividends on the Insurance Contract not applied to

the payment of premiums pursuant to this subparagraph (b)

shall be used to purchase additional paid-up insurance or may

be accumulated with interest, as the Owner shall elect.  For

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, with respect to the

Insurance Contract, the term "Policy Values" shall include

dividends, dividend additions, dividend accumulations, the

cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract including the

cash surrender value of paid-up additions and supplemental

insurance rider additions and any other element of value which

would ordinarily be applied to the payment of premiums under a

premium "vanish" option.

           2.   Collateral Assignment.  (a)  To secure the

repayment to the Company to the extent possible of the

Repayment Amount (as defined in paragraph 5 hereunder) as

provided herein, the Owner shall assign the Insurance Contract

to the Company as collateral ("the Collateral Assignment")

under a Collateral Assignment Agreement substantially in the

form attached hereto as Exhibit B.  The Collateral Assignment

shall not be terminated (except as otherwise provided in this

Insurance Agreement), altered or amended by the Owner without

the express written consent of the Company.

           (b)  Except as provided in subparagraph (a) of this

paragraph 2, the Owner shall not transfer any interest in the

Insurance Contract during the term of this Insurance Agreement

without the consent of the Company.  In the event of an

assignment by the Owner to which the Company has consented,

the references to "Owner" herein shall be deemed to refer to

the assignee or any subsequent assignee thereof for all

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, including for purposes

of this paragraph 2.  The Owner shall comply with the

notification requirements of the Insurer with respect to any

such assignment and shall deliver a copy of any such

notification to the Company.

           3.   Loans.  (a) In no event shall the Company have

any right to borrow from, or against the security of, the

Insurance Contract during the term of this Insurance

Agreement.

           (b)  The Owner shall have no right to borrow from,

or against the security of, the Insurance Contract during the

term of this Insurance Agreement to the extent that the amount

of aggregate indebtedness under, or secured by, the Insurance

Contract would thereafter exceed the loan value of the

Insurance Contract as determined immediately prior to the

first premium payment made by the Company pursuant to

paragraph 1 hereof except (i) as provided in subparagraph 8(f)

hereof, (ii) as provided in paragraph 11 hereof and (iii)

after the death of the Insured, to pay any increase in the



                                  -5-








     
<PAGE>



Owner's Federal, State or local income tax which is

attributable to the inclusion, if any, as an item of gross

income for purposes of computing such taxes of (A) the

economic benefit (as defined in paragraph 1 hereof) of the

insurance protection then provided to the Owner on the life of

the Insured's Wife under the Insurance Contract and this

Insurance Agreement and (B) any portion of, or increase in,

the cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract

(hereinafter "the Cash Surrender Value").

           4.   Term of Insurance Agreement.  This Insurance

Agreement and, except to the extent otherwise provided in

paragraph 9 hereof, the obligations of the Company hereunder

shall remain in force (regardless of whether the Owner has

assigned any portion or all of the Owner's rights, interests

and incidents of ownership in and to the Insurance Contract)

until the first to occur of:

           (a)  the death of the second to die of the

     Insured and the Insured's Wife;

           (b)  the surrender or cancellation of the

     Insurance Contract by the Owner prior to the death

     of the second to die of the Insured and the

     Insured's Wife; and

           (c)  the release of the Collateral Assignment by

     the Company pursuant to the provisions of paragraph

     8 hereof.





                                  -6-










     
<PAGE>



           5.   Repayment Amount.  The Repayment Amount as of

any time is the total amount of premiums on the Insurance

Contract paid by the Company (other than any premium or

portion thereof which consists of Restoration Amount as

defined in paragraph 11 hereunder), reduced by any premium

returns and reimbursement paid to the Company from any source

on account of such premiums paid and further reduced by any

unpaid portion of the Restoration Amount as set forth in

paragraph 11 hereunder.  In no event shall the amount payable

to the Company hereunder on account of the Repayment Amount

exceed (i) if payable by reason of the death of the Insured or

the Insured's Wife, the proceeds of the Insurance Contract

payable at such death or (ii) if payable by reason of the

surrender of the Insurance Contract or the withdrawal of any

Policy Values, the amount of Cash Surrender Value payable with

respect to such surrender or the amount of such Policy Values

so withdrawn.  If, on the complete surrender or cancellation

of the Insurance Contract or on the death of the second to die

of the Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Cash Surrender

Value or proceeds of the Insurance Contract, as the case may

be, are less than the Repayment Amount due to the Company

hereunder, none of the Owner, the Insured, the Insured's Wife,

or the personal representative of any of them shall have any

obligation to pay any part of such shortfall to the Company.







                                  -7-





     
<PAGE>



           6.  Death Benefit.  Upon the termination of this

Insurance Agreement on the death of the second to die of the

Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Company and the Owner

shall promptly take all action necessary to obtain the death

benefit provided under the Insurance Contract.  The Company

shall have the right to receive a portion of the death benefit

under the Insurance Contract equal to the Repayment Amount

determined as of the date of such death, subject to the

limitations of paragraph 5 hereunder.  The balance of the

death benefit provided under the Insurance Contract, if any,

shall be paid to the beneficiary or beneficiaries, and in the

manner and amounts, designated by the Owner in the beneficiary

designation for the Insurance Contract.  No amount shall be

paid from the death benefit under the Insurance Contract to

the Owner or the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by

the Owner until the entire Repayment Amount payable to the

Company has been paid.

           7.  Withdrawals from Insurance Contract; Surrender

or Cancellation.   (a)  Except to the extent Policy Values are

applied to pay premiums on the Insurance Contract pursuant to

paragraph 1(b) hereof or as otherwise provided in this

paragraph 7,  (i) the Owner shall not surrender the Insurance

Contract or otherwise withdraw any Policy Values during the

term of this Insurance Agreement (including by cancellation of

the Insurance Contract) without the consent of the Company and

(ii) in the event that the Insurance Contract is surrendered



                                  -8-









     
<PAGE>



or Policy Values are withdrawn prior to the death of the

survivor of the Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Company

shall be entitled to receive the Repayment Amount as then

determined to the extent of the Cash Surrender Value payable

with respect to any such surrender or the Policy Values then

withdrawn, such Repayment Amount to be paid to the extent

possible first from the cash surrender value of paid up

additions and then from the remaining Cash Surrender Value so

payable.

            (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner shall

be permitted to withdraw Policy Values to the extent permitted

under the Insurance Contract (other than by surrender of the

Insurance Contract) without the consent of the Company and, in

the case of subparagraph (i) of this subparagraph (b), without

paying any portion of the Repayment Amount to the Company, as

shall be necessary to pay:

            (i)  Any increase in the Owner's Federal, State or

local income tax after, or by reason of, the death of the

Insured which is attributable to the inclusion of any portion

of, or an increase in, the Cash Surrender Value as an item of

gross income for purposes of computing the Owner's income

taxes; and

            (ii)  The Repayment Amount at such time as the Owner

obtains the release of the Collateral Assignment pursuant to

the provisions of paragraph 8 hereunder.

           (c)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time as the Company, based on information

provided by the Insurer, notifies the Owner that the total

Augmented Cash Surrender Value is less than the Repayment

Amount if, prior to such time (i) the Augmented Cash Surrender

Value exceeded such Repayment Amount and (ii) either of the

following events has occurred: (A) the death of the Insured or

(B) an event to which subparagraph 9(b) hereof applies.  For

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, the Augmented Cash

Surrender Value as of any time shall be the amount by which

the total cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract as of

such time exceeds the cash surrender value of the Insurance

Contract determined immediately prior to the first premium

payment made by the Company pursuant to paragraph 1 hereof.

           (d)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time, if any, as the Insured is dismissed

from employment by the Company for cause.  For purposes of

this Insurance Agreement, "cause" means (i) the Insured's

willful failure to perform his duties as an officer and/or

employee of the Company (other than as a result of his total

or partial incapacity due to physical or mental illness and

excluding any action taken and any decision not to act if such

action is taken or such decision is made in the good faith

belief that it is in the furtherance of the business of the

Company), (ii) gross negligence or gross malfeasance in the

performance of such duties, (iii) a final finding by a court



                                 -10-

or other governmental body with proper jurisdiction that

Insured engaged in an act or acts that (A) constitute a felony

under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or

(B) constitute a violation of Federal or State securities law,

if the Board of Directors determines that, by reason of such

finding, the continued employment of the Insured by the

Company would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its

business; or (iv) in the absence of any final finding by a

court or other governmental body with proper jurisdiction, a

determination by the Board of Directors in good faith that

Insured engaged in an act or acts that (A) constitute a felony

under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or

(B) constitute a violation of Federal or State securities law,

if the Board of Directors determines that, by reason of such

act or acts, the continued employment of the Insured by the

Company would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its

business.

           8.   Release of Collateral Assignment.  (a)  The

Owner shall obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment in

the manner set forth in subparagraph (f) of this paragraph 8

on the earliest to occur of (i) the Nontaxable Rollout Time

(as defined in subparagraph (b) of this paragraph 8), (ii) the

Post-Death Rollout Time (as defined in subparagraph (c) of

this paragraph 8) and (iii) the Applicable Anniversary Date

(as defined in subparagraph (d) of this paragraph 8).

           (b)  The Nontaxable Rollout Time shall mean the

earliest time after the last premium payment the Company is

obligated to make hereunder that (i) after payment of the

Repayment Amount from the Cash Surrender Value, based on

projections supplied by the Insurer (using a projected

dividend or interest rate approved by the Owner, provided that

such approval may not be unreasonably withheld), a death

benefit under the Insurance Contract of an amount not less

than the lesser of (A) the face amount of the Insurance

Contract immediately prior to the first premium payment made

by the Company hereunder or (B) the then amount of insurance

provided under the Insurance Contract may thereafter be

maintained for the joint and survivor lives of the Insured and

the Insured's Wife solely by the application of Policy Values

under the Insurance Contract without the payment of further

cash premiums and (ii) the Company provides the Owner with an

opinion of outside counsel recognized as expert in Federal tax

matters, and which opinion may be relied on by the Owner, that

the payment to the Company of the Repayment Amount and the

release of the Collateral Assignment will not be a Federal

taxable event with respect to the Owner or the Insured.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, within 30 days after

receipt of the opinion referred to in the preceding sentence,

the Owner obtains an opinion of independent counsel recognized

as expert in Federal tax matters that the payment to the

Company of the Repayment Amount and the release of the



                                 -12-










     
<PAGE>



Collateral Assignment will more likely than not be a Federal

taxable event with respect to the Owner or the Insured, the

Company and Owner shall refer the matter to a third

independent counsel acceptable to both and the Nontaxable

Rollout Time shall not be deemed to have occurred unless such

third counsel affirms the opinion originally supplied by the

Company.  For purposes of this paragraph, a Federal taxable

event shall mean the recognition of gross income or the making

of a taxable gift under the then applicable provisions of the

Internal Revenue Code.

           (c)  The Post-Death Rollout Time shall mean the

earliest time after the death of the Insured and after the

last premium payment the Company is obligated to make

hereunder that, based on projections supplied by the Insurer

(using a projected dividend or interest rate approved by the

Owner, provided that such approval may not be unreasonably

withheld), after payment from the Cash Surrender Value of the

Repayment Amount and all income tax liability of the Owner

arising by reason of such payment, a death benefit under the

Insurance Contract of an amount not less than the lesser of

(i) the face amount of the Insurance Contract immediately

prior to the first premium payment made by the Company

hereunder or (ii) the then amount of insurance provided under

the Insurance Contract may thereafter be maintained for the

life of the Insured's Wife solely by the application of Policy





                                 -13-










     
<PAGE>



Values under the Insurance Contract without the payment of

further cash premiums.

           (d)  The Applicable Anniversary Date shall be such

Anniversary Date, if any, on which the Owner in its sole and

absolute discretion consents to a request by the Company that

the Owner obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment,

which request by the Company and consent by the Owner shall be

made and given, if at all, in accordance with the provisions

of subparagraph (e) of this paragraph 8.

           (e)  On any Anniversary Date on which the Augmented

Cash Surrender Value exceeds the Repayment Amount as then

determined (but only on any such Anniversary Date), the

Company may request the Owner to obtain the release of the

Collateral Assignment in accordance with the provisions of

subparagraph (f) of this paragraph 8.  In determining whether

to consent to any such request, the Owner shall consider

primarily the interests of the Insured and shall not consent

to such request unless the Owner determines in its sole and

absolute discretion that it would be in the interests of the

Insured to do so.  Although the Owner, in determining whether

or not to consent to such request, shall consider primarily

the interests of the Insured (and may consult with the Insured

for purposes of making any such determination), such

determination shall be within the sole and absolute discretion

of the Owner.  The consent of the Owner with respect to any

request by the Company as herein described may be given only



                                 -14-









     
<PAGE>



on the Anniversary Date on which the Company makes such

request.

           (f)  To obtain the release of the Collateral

Assignment pursuant to the provisions of this subparagraph 8,

the Owner shall pay to the Company the Repayment Amount

determined as of the date of such payment and, solely as a

source of funding such payment, the Owner may borrow such

amount from the Insurance Contract and direct that the same be

paid to the Company.  Upon receipt of such payment, the

Company shall release the Collateral Assignment by the

execution and delivery of an appropriate instrument of

release, and neither the Company nor the Company's assigns

shall thereafter have any further interest in and to the

Insurance Contract, either under the terms thereof or under

this Insurance Agreement.

           9.   Termination of Company's Obligation to Pay

Premiums.  Notwithstanding that this Insurance Agreement

remains in effect until the termination thereof pursuant to

paragraph 4 hereunder, the Company's obligation to make

further premium payments hereunder shall cease on the first to

occur, if any, of:

           (a)  the giving of notice by the Insured to the

     Company that the Company is thereafter relieved of

     any further obligation to make premium payments

     under this Insurance Agreement; and





                                 -15-





     
<PAGE>



           (b)  the failure of the Owner to pay the

     portion of any premium the Owner is obligated to pay

     hereunder within 30 days of written demand by the

     Company for such payment, which written demand may

     be made only after the Owner fails to pay its

     portion of premium within the grace period provided

     under the Insurance Contract with respect to such

     premium, provided that this subparagraph (b) shall

     not apply if the Company elects to pay the Owner's

     portion of such premium pursuant to paragraph 10

     hereunder.

           10.  Default by Owner.  If the Owner fails to pay

the portion of any premium due and payable which the Owner is

obligated to pay hereunder within the period described in

paragraph 9(b) hereof, the Company, in its sole discretion,

may elect to pay such portion of the premium, which amount

shall thereafter be recovered by the Company as part of the

Repayment Amount and, if the Company elects to pay such

portion, this Insurance Agreement shall thereafter continue to

apply as if the Owner had timely paid its portion of such

premium.  If the Owner fails to pay its portion of any premium

payable hereunder, the Company's sole remedy with respect to

such failure shall be (i) if the Company does not elect to pay

the Owner's portion of the premium pursuant to this paragraph

10, the cessation of the Company's obligation to make further

premium payments pursuant to paragraph 9(b) hereof or (ii) if



                                 -16-









     
<PAGE>



the Company elects to pay the Owner's portion of the premium

pursuant to this paragraph 10, the recovery of such amount as

part of the Repayment Amount.

           11.  Default by Company.  In the event that the

Company shall be in default as to any premium payment due

under paragraph 1 hereunder with respect to the Insurance

Contract, the Owner may borrow from the Insurance Contract, to

the extent permitted thereunder, all or part of the amount as

to which the Company is in default to be applied to the

payment of such premium.  Such borrowing and payment shall not

discharge the Company's obligation under paragraph 1 hereunder

with respect to such premium or any subsequent premiums.  With

respect to a default by the Company hereunder with respect to

premium payments, the Company shall be obligated (a) to repay

directly to the Insurer the full amount of any indebtedness

including accrued and unpaid interest incurred with respect to

the Insurance Contract pursuant to this paragraph and (b) to

repay to the Owner any amount which the Owner paid (i) as

premium which the Company was obligated to pay hereunder and

(ii) as interest on a loan from the Insurance Contract

pursuant to this paragraph 11, together with interest on the

amounts described in this clause (b) at a rate equal to the

interest rate applicable to policy loans with respect to the

Insurance Contract (the aggregate amounts referred to in this

sentence being herein referred to as the "Restoration

Amount").  If any portion of the Restoration Amount has not



                                 -17-





     
<PAGE>



been repaid by the Company prior to the termination of this

Insurance Agreement, the Repayment Amount payable to the

Company on such termination shall be reduced by such portion

of the Restoration Amount.  Nothing herein shall preclude the

Owner from recovering such additional damages, if any, as the

Owner shall sustain by reason of the Company's default

hereunder.

           12.  Notification of Insurer.  Except as otherwise

provided herein, at any time that the Company shall be

entitled under the provisions hereof to recover the Repayment

Amount with respect to the Insurance Contract, the Company

shall notify the Owner and the Insurer of the amount that the

Company claims it is entitled so to recover and, unless the

Owner objects in writing to the Company and the Insurer within

thirty (30) days of such notice, the Insurer is hereby

authorized to recognize such statement of the Company without

investigation or the giving of any notice and shall be fully

protected in paying such amount to the Company.  If the

Insurer receives written notice from the Owner controverting

the amount payable to the Company, the Insurer shall make no

payments with respect to such Insurance Contract except upon

written instructions signed by both the Owner and the Company

or in accordance with a final, non-appealable order of a court

of competent jurisdiction.  The written acknowledgment of

receipt by the Company of any funds paid to the Company

pursuant to its statement of the amount payable to it shall be



                                 -18-










     
<PAGE>



a full discharge and release of the Insurer by the Company

with respect to such payment.  The Insurer shall be relieved

of any and all responsibility to any party claiming an

interest in the Insurance Contract for any decrease in cash

value or death benefit resulting from the exercise of any

right as to which both the Owner and the Company have

consented or which is specifically permitted hereunder.

            13.   Owner.  The undersigned Owner shall be the sole

and absolute owner of the Insurance Contract and shall have

all rights of ownership in the Insurance Contract except to

the extent otherwise specifically provided in this Insurance

Agreement and the Collateral Assignment.  Without limiting any

other rights not specifically enumerated, the Owner

specifically reserves, subject to the Company's rights under

this Insurance Agreement, the right to designate the

beneficiary or beneficiaries of the death benefit payable

under the Insurance Contract and to elect any optional mode of

settlement permitted by the Insurance Contract or allowed by

the Insurer.

            14.   Premium Waiver.  For purposes of computing the

Repayment Amount, no premium waived under a premium waiver

provision of the Insurance Contract shall be treated as having

been paid by the Company.

            15.   Further Assurances.  Each of the Company and

the Owner shall execute and deliver such other instruments and





                                   -19-










     
<PAGE>



agreements as shall be necessary or appropriate to carry out

the intent of this Insurance Agreement.

           16.  Amendment.  Except as otherwise provided

herein, this Insurance Agreement may not be amended, altered

or modified, except by a written instrument signed by the

Company and the Owner, or their respective successors or

assigns, and may not be otherwise terminated except as

provided herein.

           17.  Binding Nature of Insurance Agreement.  This

Insurance Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to

the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns, the

Owner, and the Owner's successors, assigns, and beneficiaries.

As used in this Insurance Agreement, the term "successor",

with respect to the Company, shall include, but shall not be

limited to, any person, firm, corporation or other entity

purchase or otherwise.

           18.  Notices.  Any notice, consent or demand

required or permitted to be given under the provisions of this

Insurance Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be deemed

to be dated and to have been duly given when delivered

February 1, 1996 by and between JEANNETTE ELIASBERG, as

Trustee of the Trust created under Agreement dated December

DONALDSON, LUFKIN & JENRETTE, INC., a Delaware corporation

(hereinafter referred to as "the Company").

          Guardian Life Insurance Company of America (the

"Insurer") issued on February 14, 1994 Insurance Contract

No. 3755730 on the joint and survivor lives of Theodore P.

Shen, an employee of the Company (hereinafter referred to as

the "Insured") and the Insured's wife, Carol Shen,

(hereinafter referred to as the "Insured's Wife").  Such

policy shall be referred to hereinafter as the "Insurance

Contract."

            The undersigned parties have entered into an

Insurance Agreement (the "Insurance Agreement") which is

attached hereto as Exhibit A and which by this reference is

made a part hereof.

            Pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Owner has

<PAGE>



          The parties hereto, in consideration of the

foregoing and the agreements and covenants hereinafter set

forth and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as

follows:

           1.   Owner hereby assigns to the Company, effective

as of the date hereof, the Insurance Contract as collateral

security for payment to the Company of the Repayment Amount

pursuant to the provisions of the Insurance Agreement (such

assignment hereinafter referred to as "the Collateral

Assignment").  The Company shall be entitled to receive the

Repayment Amount, as then determined and subject to the

limitations in paragraph 5 of the Insurance Contract, as

      the Insurance Contract (hereinafter "the Cash Surrender

      Value") or other Policy Values (as defined in paragraph

      1(b) of the Insurance Agreement) to the extent the Owner

      withdraws any such Cash Surrender Value or other Policy

      Values from the Insurance Contract prior to the death of

      the second to die of the Insured and the Insured's Wife

      (including by reason of a surrender or cancellation of





                                  -2-









     
<PAGE>



      the Insurance Contract pursuant to paragraph 7 of the

      Insurance Agreement); or

            (c)  At such time as the Owner obtains the

      release of the Collateral Assignment hereunder in

      accordance with paragraph 8 of the Insurance

      Agreement.

The Collateral Assignment made herein shall not be terminated

(except as otherwise provided in the Insurance Agreement),

altered or amended by the Owner without the express written

consent of the Company.

           2.   Release of Collateral Assignment.  The Owner

shall obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment in the

manner and at such time as set forth in paragraph 8 of the

Insurance Agreement.

           3.   Payment by Insurer.   Owner hereby authorizes

the Insurer to rely solely on the written statement of the

Company as to the amount payable to the Company with respect

to the Insurance Contract as of any date unless the Insurer

receives notice in writing from the Owner given within thirty

(30) days of receipt of such written statement of the Company

controverting the Company's statement of such amount payable.

If the Insurer receives no such written notice from the Owner,

the Insurer is hereby authorized to recognize such statement

of the Company without investigation or the giving of any

notice.  If the Insurer receives such written notice from the

Owner controverting the amount payable to the Company, the



                                   -3 -









     
<PAGE>



Insurer shall make no payments with respect to such Insurance

Contract except upon written instructions signed by both the

Owner and the Company or in accordance with a final,

non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

The written acknowledgment of receipt by the Company of any

funds paid to the Company pursuant to its statement of the

amount payable to it shall be a full discharge and release of

the Insurer by the Company with respect to such payment.  The

Insurer shall be relieved of any and all responsibility to any

party claiming an interest in the Insurance Contract for any

decrease in cash value or death benefit resulting from the

exercise of any right as to which both the Owner and the

Company have consented or which is specifically permitted

under the Insurance Agreement.

           4.   Owner's Rights.  (a) Except as otherwise

provided in the Insurance Agreement and herein and subject to

the rights of the Company under the Insurance Agreement, each

and every right, interest and incident of ownership associated

with the Insurance Contract which is not expressly assigned to

the Company by this Collateral Assignment Agreement is

retained by the Owner, including, without limitation, the

right to designate the beneficiary or beneficiaries of the

death benefit payable under the Insurance Contract and to

elect any optional mode of settlement permitted by the

Insurance Contract or allowed by the Insurer.





                                 -4-









     
<PAGE>



            (b)  The Owner shall not assign any portion or all

of the Owner's right, interest and incidents of ownership in

and to the Insurance Contract during the term of the Insurance

Agreement without the consent of the Company.  In the event of

an assignment by the Owner to which the Company has consented,

the references to "Owner" herein shall be deemed to refer to

the assignee or any subsequent assignee thereof for all

purposes of this Collateral Assignment Agreement, including

for purposes of this paragraph 4.

            (c)  (i) Except to the extent Policy Values are

applied to pay premiums on the Insurance Contract pursuant to

paragraph 1(b) of the Insurance Agreement or as otherwise

provided in paragraph 7 of the Insurance Agreement or this

subparagraph (c), (A) the Owner shall not surrender the

Insurance Contract or otherwise withdraw any Policy Values

during the term of this Insurance Agreement (including by

cancellation of the Insurance Contract) without the consent of

the Company and (B) in the event that the Insurance Contract

is surrendered or Policy Values are withdrawn prior to the

death of the survivor of the Insured and the Insured's Wife,

the Company shall be entitled to receive the Repayment Amount

as then determined to the extent of the Cash Surrender Value

payable with respect to any such surrender or the Policy

Values then withdrawn, such Repayment Amount to be paid to the

extent possible first from the cash surrender value of paid up





                                  -5-








     
<PAGE>



additions and then from the remaining Cash Surrender Value, so

payable.

            (ii)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner shall

be permitted to withdraw Policy Values to the extent permitted

under the Insurance Contract (other than by surrender of the

Insurance Contract) without the consent of the Company and, in

the case of subparagraph (A) of this subparagraph (ii),

without paying any portion of the Repayment Amount to the

Company, as shall be necessary to pay:

            (A)  Any increase in the Owner's Federal, State or

local income tax after, or by reason of, the death of the

Insured which is attributable to the inclusion of any portion

of, or an increase in, the Cash Surrender Value as an item of

gross income for purposes of computing the Owner's income

taxes; and

            (B)  The Repayment Amount at such time as the Owner

obtains the release of the Collateral Assignment pursuant to

the provisions of paragraph 8 of the Insurance Agreement.

            (iii)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time as the Company, based on information

provided by the Insurer, notifies the Owner that the total

Augmented Cash Surrender Value is less than the Repayment

Amount if, prior to such time (A) the Augmented Cash Surrender

Value exceeded such Repayment Amount and (B) either of the

following events has occurred: (x) the death of the Insured or





                                  -6-









     
<PAGE>



(y) an event to which subparagraph 9(b) of the Insurance

Agreement applies.

            (iv)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time, if any, as the Insured is dismissed

from employment by the Company for "cause" (as defined in

paragraph 7(d) of the Insurance Agreement).

           5.   Borrowing Rights.  (a) In no event shall the

Company have any right to borrow from, or against the security

of, the Insurance Contract during the term of the Insurance

Agreement.

           (b)  The Owner shall have no right to borrow from,

or against the security of, the Insurance Contract during the

term of the Insurance Agreement to the extent that the amount

of aggregate indebtedness under, or secured by, the Insurance

Contract would thereafter exceed the loan value of the

Insurance Contract as determined immediately prior to the

first premium payment made by the Company pursuant to

paragraph 1 of the Insurance Agreement except (i) as provided

in subparagraph 8(f) thereof (in connection with obtaining the

release of the Collateral Assignment), (ii) as provided in

subparagraph 11 thereof (in connection with a Default by the

Company) and (iii) after the death of the Insured, to pay any

increase in the Owner's Federal, State or local income tax

which is attributable to the inclusion, if any, as an item or

items of gross income for purposes of computing such taxes of

(A) the economic benefit (as defined in paragraph 1 of the



                                  -7-









     
<PAGE>



Insurance Agreement) of the insurance protection then provided

to the Owner on the life of the Insured's Wife under the

                                              Exhibit 10.83



                          INSURANCE AGREEMENT



          THIS INSURANCE AGREEMENT made and entered into as of

the 1st day of February, 1996, by and between DONALDSON,

LUFKIN & JENRETTE, INC., a Delaware corporation, with

principal offices and place of business in the State of New

York (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") and JEANNETTE

ELIASBERG, as Trustee of the Trust created under Agreement

dated December 22, 1993 between Theodore P. Shen, as Grantor,

and Jeannette Eliasberg, as Trustee (hereinafter referred to

as the "Owner"),


                          WITNESSETH THAT:


          WHEREAS, the Owner has obtained a policy of life

insurance insuring the joint and survivor lives of Theodore P.

Shen (hereinafter referred to as the "Insured") and his wife,

Carol Shen, (hereinafter referred to as the "Insured's Wife")

in the original face amount of Seven Million Four Hundred

Seventy-Four Thousand Dollars ($7,474,000) (such policy being

hereinafter referred to as the "Insurance Contract") which is

described in Exhibit A attached hereto and by this reference

made a part hereof, and which was issued by the insurance

company shown in Exhibit A (hereinafter referred to as the

"Insurer"); and














     
<PAGE>



          WHEREAS, in consideration of past services rendered

and services to be rendered by the Insured, the Company wishes

to pay a portion of the premiums due with respect to the

Insurance Contract, subject to certain repayment rights

described herein, all on the terms and conditions hereinafter

set forth; and


          WHEREAS, the Company wishes to have the Insurance

Contract collaterally assigned to it by the Owner in order to

secure the repayment to it of the aggregate premiums on the

Insurance Contract which the Company may pay pursuant to this

Insurance Agreement.


          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and

of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties hereto

agree as follows:

           1.   (a)  Premium Payments.  Except as otherwise

provided herein, on or before March 15, 1996, and on or before

each of the following fourteen (14) consecutive annual premium

due dates with respect to the Insurance Contract (each such

premium due date hereinafter referred to as an "Anniversary

Date"), the Owner shall pay to the Insurer as and for a

portion of the premium due with respect to such Insurance

Contract an amount equal to the greater of (i) the total

premium less Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000) and (ii) the

economic benefit of the insurance protection then provided to

the Owner under the Insurance Contract and this Insurance



                                  -2-









     
<PAGE>



Agreement on the life or lives of such as are then living of

the Insured and the Insured's Wife, and the Company shall pay

to the Insurer as and for a portion of such premium an amount

equal to Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000).  The economic

benefit referred to in the preceding sentence shall be the

lesser of (i) the PS 58 cost for the insurance protection

referred to therein (as determined under tables published by

the Internal Revenue Service) and modified as appropriate (or,

if applicable, as specifically prescribed by the Internal

Revenue Service) to reflect that such insurance protection is

on the joint lives of the Insured and the Insured's Wife and

that the death benefit under such Insurance Contract is

payable only on the death of the second to die of the Insured

and the Insured's Wife) and (ii) if such insurance protection

is available from the Insurer as term insurance, the premium

for such insurance protection determined by reference to the

Insurer's current published premium rate for one-year term

life insurance protection available to all standard risks.

Thirty (30) days prior to each Anniversary Date on which

premium is payable hereunder, the Company shall notify the

Owner of the exact amount of the economic benefit the Owner is

obligated to pay hereunder.  Each of the Owner and the Company

shall promptly furnish the other evidence of timely payment of

the portion of each such premium it is obligated to pay

hereunder.





                                  -3-








     
<PAGE>



           (b)  Dividends.   After such time that premiums on

the Insurance Contract are no longer payable pursuant to

paragraph 1(a) hereof, dividends and other Policy Values shall

be applied to the payment of premiums on the Insurance

Contract.  Dividends on the Insurance Contract not applied to

the payment of premiums pursuant to this subparagraph (b)

shall be used to purchase additional, paid-up insurance or may

be accumulated with interest, as the Owner shall elect.  For

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, with respect to the

Insurance Contract, the term "Policy Values" shall include

dividends, dividend additions, dividend accumulations, the

cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract including the

cash surrender value of paid-up additions and supplemental

insurance rider additions and any other element of value which

would ordinarily be applied to the payment of premiums under a

premium "vanish" option.

           2.   Collateral Assignment.  (a)  To secure the

repayment to the Company to the extent possible of the

Repayment Amount (as defined in paragraph 5 hereunder) as

provided herein, the Owner shall assign the Insurance Contract

to the Company as collateral ("the Collateral Assignment")

under a Collateral Assignment Agreement substantially in the

form attached hereto as Exhibit B.  The Collateral Assignment

shall not be terminated (except as otherwise provided in this

Insurance Agreement), altered or amended by the Owner without

the express written consent of the Company.



                                 -4 -










     
<PAGE>



           (b)  Except as provided in subparagraph (a) of this

paragraph 2, the Owner shall not transfer any interest in the

Insurance Contract during the term of this Insurance Agreement

without the consent of the Company.  In the event of an

assignment by the Owner to which the Company has consented,

the references to "Owner" herein shall be deemed to refer to

the assignee or any subsequent assignee thereof for all

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, including for purposes

of this paragraph 2.  The Owner shall comply with the

notification requirements of the Insurer with respect to any

such assignment and shall deliver a copy of any such

notification to the Company.

           3.   Loans.  (a) In no event shall the Company have

any right to borrow from, or against the security of, the

Insurance Contract during the term of this Insurance

Agreement.

           (b)  The Owner shall have no right to borrow from,

or against the security of, the Insurance Contract during the

term of this Insurance Agreement to the extent that the amount

of aggregate indebtedness under, or secured by, the Insurance

Contract would thereafter exceed the loan value of the

Insurance Contract as determined immediately prior to the

first premium payment made by the Company pursuant to

paragraph 1 hereof except (i) as provided in subparagraph 8(f)

hereof, (ii) as provided in paragraph 11 hereof and (iii)

after the death of the Insured, to pay any increase in the



                                  -5-





     
<PAGE>



Owner's Federal, State or local income tax which is

attributable to the inclusion, if any, as an item of gross

income for purposes of computing such taxes of (A) the

economic benefit (as defined in paragraph 1 hereof) of the

insurance protection then provided to the Owner on the life of

the Insured's Wife under the Insurance Contract and this

Insurance Agreement and (B) any portion of, or increase in,

the cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract

(hereinafter "the Cash Surrender Value").

            4.    Term of Insurance Agreement.  This Insurance

Agreement and, except to the extent otherwise provided in

paragraph 9 hereof, the obligations of the Company hereunder

shall remain in force (regardless of whether the Owner has

assigned any portion or all of the Owner's rights, interests

and incidents of ownership in and to the Insurance Contract)

until the first to occur of:

              (a) the death of the second to die of the

        Insured and the Insured's Wife;

              (b) the surrender or cancellation of the

        Insurance Contract by the Owner prior to the death

        of the second to die of the Insured and the

        Insured's Wife; and

              (c) the release of the Collateral Assignment by

        the Company pursuant to the provisions of paragraph

        8 hereof.





                                    -6-





     
<PAGE>



           5.   Repayment Amount.  The Repayment Amount as of

any time is the total amount of premiums on the Insurance

Contract paid by the Company (other than any premium or

portion thereof which consists of Restoration Amount as

defined in paragraph 11 hereunder), reduced by any premium

returns and reimbursement paid to the Company from any source

on account of such premiums paid and further reduced by any

unpaid portion of the Restoration Amount as set forth in

paragraph 11 hereunder.  In no event shall the amount payable

to the Company hereunder on account of the Repayment Amount

exceed (i) if payable by reason of the death of the Insured or

the Insured's Wife, the proceeds of the Insurance Contract

payable at such death or (ii) if payable by reason of the

surrender of the Insurance Contract or the withdrawal of any

Policy Values, the amount of Cash Surrender Value payable with

respect to such surrender or the amount of such Policy Values

so withdrawn.  If, on the complete surrender or cancellation

of the Insurance Contract or on the death of the second to die

of the Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Cash Surrender

Value or proceeds of the Insurance Contract, as the case may

be, are less than the Repayment Amount due to the Company

hereunder, none of the Owner, the Insured, the Insured's Wife,

or the personal representative of any of them shall have any

obligation to pay any part of such shortfall to the Company.







                                  -7-











     
<PAGE>



           6.  Death Benefit.  Upon the termination of this

Insurance Agreement on the death of the second to die of the

Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Company and the Owner

shall promptly take all action necessary to obtain the death

benefit provided under the Insurance Contract.  The Company

shall have the right to receive a portion of the death benefit

under the Insurance Contract equal to the Repayment Amount

determined as of the date of such death, subject to the

limitations of paragraph 5 hereunder.  The balance of the

death benefit provided under the Insurance Contract, if any,

shall be paid to the beneficiary or beneficiaries, and in the

manner and amounts, designated by the Owner in the beneficiary

designation for the Insurance Contract.  No amount shall be

paid from the death benefit under the Insurance Contract to

the Owner or the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by

the Owner until the entire Repayment Amount payable to the

Company has been paid.

           7.  Withdrawals from Insurance Contract; Surrender

or Cancellation.  (a)  Except to the extent Policy Values are

applied to pay premiums on the Insurance Contract pursuant to

paragraph 1(b) hereof or as otherwise provided in this

paragraph 7, (i) the Owner shall not surrender the Insurance

Contract or otherwise withdraw any Policy Values during the

term of this Insurance Agreement (including by cancellation of

the Insurance Contract) without the consent of the Company and

(ii) in the event that the Insurance Contract is surrendered



                                  -8-










     
<PAGE>



or Policy Values are withdrawn prior to the death of the

survivor of the Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Company

shall be entitled to receive the Repayment Amount as then

determined to the extent of the Cash Surrender Value payable

with respect to any such surrender or the Policy Values then

withdrawn, such Repayment Amount to be paid to the extent

possible first from the cash surrender value of paid up

additions and then from the remaining Cash Surrender Value so

payable.

            (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner shall

be permitted to withdraw Policy Values to the extent permitted

under the Insurance Contract (other than by surrender of the

Insurance Contract) without the consent of the Company and, in

the case of subparagraph (i) of this subparagraph (b), without

paying any portion of the Repayment Amount to the Company, as

shall be necessary to pay:

            (i)  Any increase in the Owner's Federal, State or

local income tax after, or by reason of, the death of the

Insured which is attributable to the inclusion of any portion

of, or an increase in, the Cash Surrender Value as an item of

gross income for purposes of computing the Owner's income

taxes; and

            (ii)  The Repayment Amount at such time as the Owner

obtains the release of the Collateral Assignment pursuant to

the provisions of paragraph 8 hereunder.





                                  -9-










     
<PAGE>



           (c)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time as the Company, based on information

provided by the Insurer, notifies the Owner that the total

Augmented Cash Surrender Value is less than the Repayment

Amount if, prior to such time (i) the Augmented Cash Surrender

Value exceeded such Repayment Amount and (ii) either of the

following events has occurred: (A) the death of the Insured or

(B) an event to which subparagraph 9(b) hereof applies.  For

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, the Augmented Cash

Surrender Value as of any time shall be the amount by which

the total cash surrender value of the Insurance Contract as of

such time exceeds the cash surrender value of the Insurance

Contract determined immediately prior to the first premium

payment made by the Company pursuant to paragraph 1 hereof.

            (d)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time, if any, as the Insured is dismissed

from employment by the Company for cause.  For purposes of

this Insurance Agreement, "cause" means (i) the Insured's

willful failure to perform his duties as an officer and/or

employee of the Company (other than as a result of his total

or partial incapacity due to physical or mental illness and

excluding any action taken and any decision not to act if such

action is taken or such decision is made in the good faith

belief that it is in the furtherance of the business of the

Company), (ii) gross negligence or gross malfeasance in the

performance of such duties, (iii) a final finding by a court



                                 -10-











     
<PAGE>



or other governmental body with proper jurisdiction that

Insured engaged in an act or acts that (A) constitute a felony

under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or

(B) constitute a violation of Federal or State securities law,

if the Board of Directors determines that, by reason of such

finding, the continued employment of the Insured by the

Company would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its

business; or (iv) in the absence of any final finding by a

court or other governmental body with proper jurisdiction, a

determination by the Board of Directors in good faith that

Insured engaged in an act or acts that (A) constitute a felony

under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or

(B) constitute a violation of Federal or State securities law,

if the Board of Directors determines that, by reason of such

act or acts, the continued employment of the Insured by the

Company would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its

business.

           8.   Release of Collateral Assignment.  (a)  The

Owner shall obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment in

the manner set forth in subparagraph (f) of this paragraph 8

on the earliest to occur of (i) the Nontaxable Rollout Time

(as defined in subparagraph (b) of this paragraph 8), (ii) the

Post-Death Rollout Time (as defined in subparagraph (c) of

this paragraph 8) and (iii) the Applicable Anniversary Date

(as defined in subparagraph (d) of this paragraph 8).





                                 -11-









     
<PAGE>



           (b)  The Nontaxable Rollout Time shall mean the

earliest time after the last premium payment the Company is

obligated to make hereunder that (i) after payment of the

Repayment Amount from the Cash Surrender Value, based on

projections supplied by the Insurer (using a projected

dividend or interest rate approved by the Owner, provided that

such approval may not be unreasonably withheld), a death

benefit under the Insurance Contract of an amount not less

than the lesser of (A) the face amount of the Insurance

Contract immediately prior to the first premium payment made

by the Company hereunder or (B) the then amount of insurance

provided under the Insurance Contract may thereafter be

maintained for the joint and survivor lives of the Insured and

the Insured's Wife solely by the application of Policy Values

under the Insurance Contract without the payment of further

cash premiums and (ii) the Company provides the Owner with an

opinion of outside counsel recognized as expert in Federal tax

matters, and which opinion may be relied on by the Owner, that

the payment to the Company of the Repayment Amount and the

release of the Collateral Assignment will not be a Federal

taxable event with respect to the Owner or the Insured.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, within 30 days after

receipt of the opinion referred to in the preceding sentence,

the Owner obtains an opinion of independent counsel recognized

as expert in Federal tax matters that the payment to the

Company of the Repayment Amount and the release of the



                                 -12-










     
<PAGE>



Collateral Assignment will more likely than not be a Federal

taxable event with respect to the Owner or the Insured, the

Company and Owner shall refer the matter to a third

independent counsel acceptable to both and the Nontaxable

Rollout Time shall not be deemed to have occurred unless such

third counsel affirms the opinion originally supplied by the

Company.  For purposes of this paragraph, a Federal taxable

event shall mean the recognition of gross income or the making

of a taxable gift under the then applicable provisions of the

Internal Revenue Code.

           (c)  The Post-Death Rollout Time shall mean the

earliest time after the death of the Insured and after the

last premium payment the Company is obligated to make

hereunder that, based on projections supplied by the Insurer

(using a projected dividend or interest rate approved by the

Owner, provided that such approval may not be unreasonably

withheld), after payment from the Cash Surrender Value of the

Repayment Amount and all income tax liability of the Owner

arising by reason of such payment, a death benefit under the

Insurance Contract of an amount not less than the lesser of

(i) the face amount of the Insurance Contract immediately

prior to the first premium payment made by the Company

hereunder or (ii) the then amount of insurance provided under

the Insurance Contract may thereafter be maintained for the

life of the Insured's Wife solely by the application of Policy





                                 -13-





     
<PAGE>



Values under the Insurance Contract without the payment of

further cash premiums.

           (d)  The Applicable Anniversary Date shall be such

Anniversary Date, if any, on which the Owner in its sole and

absolute discretion consents to a request by the Company that

the Owner obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment,

which request by the Company and consent by the Owner shall be

made and given, if at all, in accordance with the provisions

of subparagraph (e) of this paragraph 8.

           (e)  On any Anniversary Date on which the Augmented

Cash Surrender Value exceeds the Repayment Amount as then

determined (but only on any such Anniversary Date), the

Company may request the Owner to obtain the release of the

Collateral Assignment in accordance with the provisions of

subparagraph (f) of this paragraph 8.  In determining whether

to consent to any such request, the Owner shall consider

primarily the interests of the Insured and shall not consent

to such request unless the Owner determines in its sole and

absolute discretion that it would be in the interests of the

Insured to do so.  Although the Owner, in determining whether

or not to consent to such request, shall consider primarily

the interests of the Insured (and may consult with the Insured

for purposes of making any such determination), such

determination shall be within the sole and absolute discretion

of the Owner.  The consent of the Owner with respect to any

request by the Company as herein described may be given only



                                 -14-





     
<PAGE>



on the Anniversary Date on which the Company makes such

request.

            (f) To obtain the release of the Collateral

Assignment pursuant to the provisions of this subparagraph 8,

the Owner shall pay to the Company the Repayment Amount

determined as of the date of such payment and, solely as a

source of funding such payment, the Owner may borrow such

amount from the Insurance Contract and direct that the same be

paid to the Company.  Upon receipt of such payment, the

Company shall release the Collateral Assignment by the

execution and delivery of an appropriate instrument of

release, and neither the Company nor the Company's assigns

shall thereafter have any further interest in and to the

Insurance Contract, either under the terms thereof or under

this Insurance Agreement.

            9.   Termination of Company's Obligation to Pay

Premiums.  Notwithstanding that this Insurance Agreement

remains in effect until the termination thereof pursuant to

paragraph 4 hereunder, the Company's obligation to make

further premium payments hereunder shall cease on the first to

occur, if any, of:

            (a)  the giving of notice by the Insured to the

      Company that the Company is thereafter relieved of

      any further obligation to make premium payments

      under this Insurance Agreement; and





                                   -15-











     
<PAGE>



            (b)  the failure of the Owner to pay the

       portion of any premium the Owner is obligated to pay

       hereunder within 30 days of written demand by the

       Company for such payment, which written demand may

       be made only after the Owner fails to pay its

       portion of premium within the grace period provided

       under the Insurance Contract with respect to such

       premium, provided that this subparagraph (b) shall

       not apply if the Company elects to pay the Owner's

       portion of such premium pursuant to paragraph 10

       hereunder.

            10.   Default by Owner.  If the Owner fails to pay

the portion of any premium due and payable which the Owner is

obligated to pay hereunder within the period described in

paragraph 9(b) hereof, the Company, in its sole discretion,

may elect to pay such portion of the premium, which amount

shall thereafter be recovered by the Company as part of the

Repayment Amount and, if the Company elects to pay such

portion, this Insurance Agreement shall thereafter continue to

apply as if the Owner had timely paid its portion of such

premium.  If the Owner fails to pay its portion of any premium

payable hereunder, the Company's sole remedy with respect to

such failure shall be (i) if the Company does not elect to pay

the Owner's portion of the premium pursuant to this paragraph

10, the cessation of the Company's obligation to make further

premium payments pursuant to paragraph 9(b) hereof or (ii) if



                                   -16-





     
<PAGE>



the Company elects to pay the Owner's portion of the premium

pursuant to this paragraph 10, the recovery of such amount as

part of the Repayment Amount.

           11.  Default by Company.  In the event that the

Company shall be in default as to any premium payment due

under paragraph 1 hereunder with respect to the Insurance

Contract, the Owner may borrow from the Insurance Contract, to

the extent permitted thereunder, all or part of the amount as

to which the Company is in default to be applied to the

payment of such premium.  Such borrowing and payment shall not

discharge the Company's obligation under paragraph 1 hereunder

with respect to such premium or any subsequent premiums.  With

respect to a default by the Company hereunder with respect to

premium payments, the Company shall be obligated (a) to repay

directly to the Insurer the full amount of any indebtedness

including accrued and unpaid interest incurred with respect to

the Insurance Contract pursuant to this paragraph and (b) to

repay to the Owner any amount which the Owner paid (i) as

premium which the Company was obligated to pay hereunder and

(ii) as interest on a loan from the Insurance Contract

pursuant to this paragraph 11, together with interest on the

amounts described in this clause (b) at a rate equal to the

interest rate applicable to policy loans with respect to the

Insurance Contract (the aggregate amounts referred to in this

sentence being herein referred to as the "Restoration

Amount").  If any portion of the Restoration Amount has not



                                 -17-










     
<PAGE>



been repaid by the Company prior to the termination of this

Insurance Agreement, the Repayment Amount payable to the

Company on such termination shall be reduced by such portion

of the Restoration Amount.  Nothing herein shall preclude the

Owner from recovering such additional damages, if any, as the

Owner shall sustain by reason of the Company's default

hereunder.

            12.  Notification of Insurer.  Except as otherwise

provided herein, at any time that the Company shall be

entitled under the provisions hereof to recover the Repayment

Amount with respect to the Insurance Contract, the Company

shall notify the Owner and the Insurer of the amount that the

Company claims it is entitled so to recover and, unless the

Owner objects in writing to the Company and the Insurer within

foregoing and the agreements and covenants hereinafter set

forth and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as

follows:

          1.    Owner hereby assigns to the Company, effective

      (including by reason of a surrender or cancellation of

      the Insurance Contract pursuant to paragraph 7 of the

to the Insurance Contract as of any date unless the Insurer

receives notice in writing from the Owner given within thirty

(30) days of receipt of such written statement of the Company

controverting the Company's statement of such amount payable.

If the Insurer receives no such written notice from the Owner,

the Insurer is hereby authorized to recognize such statement

of the Company without investigation or the giving of any

notice.  If the Insurer receives such written notice from the

Owner controverting the amount payable to the Company, the

Insurer shall make no payments with respect to such Insurance

Contract except upon written instructions signed by both the

<PAGE>



Owner and the Company or in accordance with a final,

non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

The written acknowledgment of receipt by the Company of any

funds paid to the Company pursuant to its statement of the

amount payable to it shall be a full discharge and release of

the Insurer by the Company with respect to such payment.  The

Insurer shall be relieved of any and all responsibility to any

party claiming an interest in the Insurance Contract for any

decrease in cash value or death benefit resulting from the

exercise of any right as to which both the Owner and the

Company have consented or which is specifically permitted

under the Insurance Agreement.

          4.    Owner's Rights.  (a) Except as otherwise

provided in the Insurance Agreement and herein and subject to

the assignee or any subsequent assignee thereof for all

purposes of this Collateral Assignment Agreement, including

for purposes of this paragraph 4.

            (c)  (i) Except to the extent Policy Values are

provided in paragraph 7 of the Insurance Agreement or this

subparagraph (c), (A) the Owner shall not surrender the

Insurance Contract or otherwise withdraw any Policy Values

cancellation of the Insurance Contract) without the consent of

the Company and (B) in the event that the Insurance Contract

local income tax after, or by reason of, the death of the

Insured which is attributable to the inclusion of any portion

of, or an increase in, the Cash Surrender Value as an item of

gross income for purposes of computing the Owner's income

taxes; and

            (B)  The Repayment Amount at such time as the Owner

obtains the release of the Collateral Assignment pursuant to

the provisions of paragraph 8 of the Insurance Agreement.

            (iii)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Agreement.

paragraph 1 of the Insurance Agreement except (i) as provided

in subparagraph 8(f) thereof (in connection with obtaining the

release of the Collateral Assignment), (ii) as provided in

subparagraph 11 thereof (in connection with a Default by the

                          INSURANCE AGREEMENT



          THIS INSURANCE AGREEMENT made and entered into as of

the 4th day of January, 1996, by and between DONALDSON, LUFKIN

& JENRETTE, INC., a Delaware corporation, with principal

offices and place of business in the State of New York (here-

inafter referred to as the "Company") and DAN CURTIS ROSY, as

Trustee of The Roby 1995 Insurance Trust dated November 27,

1995 (hereinafter referred to as the "Owner"),


                          WITNESSETH THAT:


          WHEREAS, the Owner has obtained two policies of life

insurance insuring the joint and survivor lives of Joe L. Roby

(hereinafter referred to as the "Insured") and his wife,

Hilppa A. Roby, (hereinafter referred to as the "Insured's

Wife") each in the face amount of Five Million Six Hundred

Ninety-Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($5,692,500) (such

policies for all purposes hereof being treated as though they

constituted a single policy and being hereinafter referred to

in the aggregate as the "Insurance Contract") which are

described in Exhibit A attached hereto and by this reference

made a part hereof, and which were issued by the insurance

company shown in Exhibit A (hereinafter referred to as the

"Insurer"); and


          WHEREAS, in consideration of past services rendered

and services to be rendered by the Insured, the Company wishes












     
<PAGE>



to pay a portion of the premiums due with respect to the

Insurance Contract, subject to certain repayment rights

described herein, all on the terms and conditions hereinafter

set forth; and


          WHEREAS, the Company wishes to have the Insurance

Contract collaterally assigned to it by the Owner in order to

secure the repayment to it of the aggregate premiums on the

Insurance Contract which the Company may pay pursuant to this

Insurance Agreement.


          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and

of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties hereto

agree as follows:

           1.   Premium Payments.  (a) Except as otherwise

provided in paragraph 9 hereof, on or before February 15, 1996

and on or before each of the first fourteen (14) anniversaries

of the register date of the Insurance Contract (each such

anniversary hereinafter referred to as an "Anniversary Date")

prior to the termination of this Insurance Agreement, premium

on the Insurance Contract shall be paid as follows:  the Owner

shall pay to the Insurer as and for a portion of such premium

an amount equal to the economic benefit of the insurance

protection then provided to the Owner under the Insurance

Contract and this Insurance Agreement on the life or lives of

such as are then living of the Insured and the Insured's Wife,

and the Company shall pay to the Insurer as and for a portion



                                  -2-










     
<PAGE>



of such premium an amount equal to One Hundred Eighty-Five

Thousand Dollars ($185,000).  The economic benefit referred to

in the preceding sentence shall be the lesser of (i) the PS 58

cost for the insurance protection referred to therein (as

determined under tables published by the Internal Revenue

Service) and modified as appropriate (or, if applicable, as

specifically prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service) to

reflect that such insurance protection is on the joint lives

of the Insured and the Insured's Wife and that the death

benefit under such Insurance Contract is payable only on the

death of the second to die of the Insured and the Insured's

Wife and (ii) if such insurance protection is available from

the Insurer as term insurance, the premium for such insurance

protection determined by reference to the Insurer's current

published premium rate for one-year term life insurance

protection available to all standard risks.  Thirty (30) days

prior to each Anniversary Date on which premium is payable

hereunder, the Company shall notify the Owner of the exact

amount of the economic benefit the Owner is obligated to pay

hereunder.  Each of the Owner and the Company shall promptly

furnish the other evidence of timely payment of the portion of

each such premium it is obligated to pay hereunder.

            (b)  During the term of this Insurance Agreement,

the Owner shall elect to have Option A apply under the

Insurance Contract.





                                  -3-








     
<PAGE>



           2.   Collateral Assignment.  (a) To secure the

repayment to the Company to the extent possible of the

Repayment Amount (as defined in paragraph 5 hereunder) as

herein provided, the Owner shall assign the Insurance Contract

to the Company as collateral ("the Collateral Assignment")

under a Collateral Assignment Agreement substantially in the

form attached hereto as Exhibit B.  The Collateral Assignment

of the Insurance Contract to the Company shall not be

terminated (except as otherwise provided in this Insurance

Agreement), altered or amended by the Owner without the

express written consent of the Company.

           (b)  Except as provided in subparagraph (a) of this

paragraph 2, the Owner shall not transfer any interest in the

Insurance Contract during the term of this Insurance Agreement

without the consent of the Company.  In the event of an

assignment by the Owner to which the Company has consented,

the references to "Owner" herein shall be deemed to refer to

the assignee or any subsequent assignee thereof for all

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, including for purposes

of this paragraph 2.  The Owner shall comply with the

notification requirements of the Insurer with respect to any

such assignment and shall deliver a copy of any such

notification to the Company.

           3.   Loans.  (a) In no event shall the Company have

any right to borrow from, or against the security of, the





                                  -4-







     
<PAGE>



Insurance Contract during the term of this Insurance

Agreement.

           (b)  The Owner shall have no right to borrow from,

or against the security of, the Insurance Contract during the

term of this Insurance Agreement except (i) as provided in

subparagraph 8(f) hereof and (ii) after the death of the

Insured, to pay any increase in the Owner's Federal, State or

local income tax which is attributable to the inclusion, if

any, as an item of gross income for purposes of computing such

taxes of (A) the economic benefit (as defined in paragraph 1

hereof) of the insurance protection then provided to the Owner

on the life of the Insured's Wife under the Insurance Contract

and this Insurance Agreement and (B) any portion of, or

increase in, the cash surrender value of the Insurance

Contract (hereinafter "the Cash Surrender Value").

           4.   Term of Insurance Agreement.  This Insurance

Agreement and, except to the extent otherwise provided in

paragraph 9 hereof, the obligations of the Company hereunder

shall remain in force (regardless of whether the Owner has

assigned any portion or all of the Owner's rights, interests

and incidents of ownership in and to the Insurance Contract)

until the first to occur of:

            (a) the death of the second to die of the

      Insured and the Insured's Wife;

            (b) the surrender or cancellation of the

      Insurance Contract by the Owner prior to the death



                                  -5-








     
<PAGE>



      of the second to die of the Insured and the

      Insured's Wife; and

           (c)  the release of the Collateral Assignment by

     the Company pursuant to the provisions of paragraph

     8 hereof.

           5.   Repayment Amount.  The Repayment Amount as of

any time is the total amount of premiums on the Insurance

Contract paid by the Company (other than any premium or

portion thereof which consists of Restoration Amount as

defined in paragraph 11 hereunder), reduced by any premium

returns and reimbursement paid to the Company from any source

on account of such premiums paid and further reduced by any

unpaid portion of the Restoration Amount as set forth in

paragraph 11 hereunder.  In no event shall the amount payable

to the Company hereunder on account of the Repayment Amount

exceed (i) if payable by reason of the death of the Insured or

the Insured's Wife, the proceeds of the Insurance Contract

payable at such death or (ii) if payable by reason of a

withdrawal of all or any portion of the Cash Surrender Value

(including by cancellation or surrender of the Insurance

Contract), the amount of Cash Surrender Value so withdrawn.

If, on the surrender or cancellation of the Insurance Contract

or on the death of the second to die of the Insured and the

Insured's Wife, the Cash Surrender Value or proceeds of the

Insurance Contract, as the case may be, are less than the

Repayment Amount due to the Company hereunder, none of the



                                  -6-








     
<PAGE>



Owner, the Insured, the Insured's Wife, or the personal

representative of any of them shall have any obligation to pay

any part of such shortfall to the Company.

           6.   Death Benefit.  Upon the termination of this

Insurance Agreement on the death of the second to die of the

Insured and the Insured's Wife, the Company and the Owner

shall promptly take all action necessary to obtain the death

benefit provided under the Insurance Contract.  The Company

shall have the right to receive a portion of the death benefit

under the Insurance Contract equal to the Repayment Amount

determined as of the date of such death, subject to the

limitations of paragraph 5 hereunder.  The balance of the

death benefit provided under the Insurance Contract, if any,

shall be paid to the beneficiary or beneficiaries, and in the

manner and amounts, designated by the Owner in the beneficiary

designation for the Insurance Contract.  No amount shall be

paid from the death benefit under the Insurance Contract to

the Owner or the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by

the Owner until the entire Repayment Amount payable to the

Company has been paid.

           7.   Withdrawals from Insurance Contract; Surrender

or Cancellation.  (a)  Except as otherwise provided in this

paragraph 7, the Owner shall not withdraw any portion of the

Cash Surrender Value during the term of this Insurance

Agreement (including by cancellation or surrender of the

Insurance Contract) without the consent of the Company and



                                  -7-







     
<PAGE>



upon withdrawal of all or any portion of the Cash Surrender

Value (including upon termination of this Insurance Agreement

by reason of a surrender or cancellation of the Insurance

Contract), the Company shall be entitled to receive the

Repayment Amount as then determined to the extent of the Cash

Surrender Value so withdrawn.

            (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner shall

be permitted to withdraw from the Cash Surrender Value without

the consent of the Company and, in the case of subparagraph

(i) of this subparagraph (b), without paying any portion of

the Repayment Amount to the Company, the following amounts:

            (i)  Any increase in the Owner's Federal, State or

local income tax after, or by reason of, the death of the

Insured which is attributable to the inclusion of any portion

of, or an increase in, the Cash Surrender Value as an item of

gross income for purposes of computing the Owner's income

taxes; and

            (ii) The Repayment Amount at such time as the Owner

obtains the release of the Collateral Assignment pursuant to

the provisions of paragraph 8 hereunder.

            (c)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time as the Company, based on information

provided by the Insurer, notifies the Owner that the total

Cash Surrender Value is less than the Repayment Amount if,

prior to such time (i) the Cash Surrender Value exceeded such

Repayment Amount and (ii) either of the following events has



                                  -8-









     
<PAGE>



occurred: (A) the death of the Insured or (B) an event to

which subparagraph 9(b) hereof applies.

            (d)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time, if any, as the Insured is dismissed

from employment by the Company for cause.  For purposes of

this Insurance Agreement, "cause" means (i) the Insured's

willful failure to perform his duties as an officer and/or

employee of the Company (other than as a result of his total

or partial incapacity due to physical or mental illness and

excluding any action taken and any decision not to act if such

action is taken or such decision is made in the good faith

belief that it is in the furtherance of the business of the

Company), (ii) gross negligence or gross malfeasance in the

performance of such duties, (iii) a final finding by a court

or other governmental body with proper jurisdiction that

Insured engaged in an act or acts that (A) constitute a felony

under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or

(B) constitute a violation of Federal or State securities law,

if the Board of Directors determines that, by reason of such

finding, the continued employment of the Insured by the

Company would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its

business; or (iv) in the absence of any final finding by a

court or other governmental body with proper jurisdiction, a

determination by the Board of Directors in good faith that

Insured engaged in an act or acts that (A) constitute a felony

under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or



                                  -9-









     
<PAGE>



(B) constitute a violation of Federal or State securities law,

if the Board of Directors determines that, by reason of such

act or acts, the continued employment of the Insured by the

Company would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its

business.

           8.   Release of Collateral Assignment.  (a)  The

Owner shall obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment to

the Company of the Insurance Contract in the manner set forth

in subparagraph (f) of this paragraph 8 on the earliest to

occur of (i) the Nontaxable Rollout Time (as defined in

subparagraph (b) of this paragraph 8), (ii) the Post-Death

Rollout Time (as defined in subparagraph (c) of this paragraph

8) and (iii) the Applicable Anniversary Date (as defined in

subparagraph (d) of this paragraph 8).

           (b)  The Nontaxable Rollout Time shall mean the

earliest time after the last premium payment the Company is

obligated to make hereunder that (i) after payment of the

Repayment Amount from the Cash Surrender Value, based on

projections supplied by the Insurer (using a projected rate of

interest or investment return approved by the Owner, provided

that such approval may not be unreasonably withheld), a death

benefit under the Insurance Contract of an amount not less

than the lesser of (A) the initial face amount of the

Insurance Contract or (B) the then amount of insurance

provided under the Insurance Contract may thereafter be

maintained for the joint and survivor lives of the Insured and



                                 -10-








     
<PAGE>



the Insured's Wife solely by the application of investment

returns and other Policy Values under the Insurance Contract

without the payment of further cash premiums and (ii) the

Company provides the Owner with an opinion of outside counsel

recognized as expert in Federal tax matters, and which opinion

may be relied on by the Owner, that the payment to the Company

of the Repayment Amount and the release of the Collateral

Assignment will not be a Federal taxable event with respect to

the Owner or the Insured.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if,

within 30 days after receipt of the opinion referred to in the

preceding sentence, the Owner obtains an opinion of

independent counsel recognized as expert in Federal tax

matters that the payment to the Company of the Repayment

Amount and the release of the Collateral Assignment will more

likely than not be a Federal taxable event with respect to the

Owner or the Insured, the Company and Owner shall refer the

matter to a third independent counsel acceptable to both and

the Nontaxable Rollout Time shall not be deemed to have

occurred unless such third counsel affirms the opinion

originally supplied by the Company.  For purposes of this

paragraph, a Federal taxable event shall mean the recognition

of gross income or the making of a taxable gift under the then

applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.  For

purposes of this Insurance Agreement, with respect to the

Insurance Contract, the term "Policy Values" shall include

investment returns and the Cash Surrender Value and any other



                                 -11-








     
<PAGE>



element of value which would ordinarily be applied to the

payment of the internal charges (including mortality charges)

with respect to the Insurance Contract if no premium were

paid.

           (c)  The Post-Death Rollout Time shall mean the

earliest time after the death of the Insured and after the

last premium payment the Company is obligated to make

hereunder that, based on projections supplied by the Insurer

(using a projected rate of interest or investment return

approved by the Owner, provided that such approval may not be

unreasonably withheld), after payment from the Cash Surrender

Value of the Repayment Amount and all income tax liability of

the Owner arising by reason of such payment, a death benefit

under the Insurance Contract of an amount not less than the

lesser of (i) the initial face amount of the Insurance

Contract or (ii) the then amount of insurance provided under

the Insurance Contract may thereafter be maintained for the

life of the Insured's Wife solely by the application of

investment returns and other Policy Values under the Insurance

Contract without the payment of further cash premiums.

           (d)  The Applicable Anniversary Date shall be such

Anniversary Date, if any, on which the Owner in its sole and

absolute discretion consents to a request by the Company that

the Owner obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment,

which request by the Company and consent by the Owner shall be





                                 -12-





     
<PAGE>



made and given, if at all, in accordance with the provisions

of subparagraph (e) of this paragraph 8.

           (e)  On any Anniversary Date on which the Cash

Surrender Value exceeds the Repayment Amount as then

determined (but only on any such Anniversary Date), the

Company may request the Owner to obtain the release of the

Collateral Assignment in accordance with the provisions of

subparagraph (f) of this paragraph 8.  In determining whether

to consent to any such request, the Owner shall consider

primarily the interests of the Insured and shall not consent

to such request unless the Owner determines in its sole and

absolute discretion that it would be in the interests of the

Insured to do so.  Although the Owner, in determining whether

or not to consent to such request, shall consider primarily

the interests of the Insured (and may consult with the Insured

for purposes of making any such determination), such

determination shall be within the sole and absolute discretion

of the Owner.  The consent of the Owner with respect to any

request by the Company as herein described may be given only

on the Anniversary Date on which the Company makes such

request.

           (f)  To obtain the release of the Collateral

Assignment pursuant to the provisions of this subparagraph 8,

the Owner shall pay to the Company the Repayment Amount

determined as of the date of such payment and, solely as a

source of funding such payment, the Owner may borrow such



                                 -13-









     
<PAGE>



amount from the Cash Surrender Value and direct that the same

be paid to the Company.  Upon receipt of such payment, the

Company shall release the Collateral Assignment of the

Insurance Contract by the execution and delivery of an

appropriate instrument of release, and neither the Company nor

the Company's assigns shall thereafter have any further

interest in and to the Insurance Contract, either under the

terms thereof or under this Insurance Agreement.

           9.   Termination of Company's Obligation to Pay

Premiums.  Notwithstanding that this Insurance Agreement

remains in effect until the termination thereof pursuant to

paragraph 4 hereunder, the Company's obligation to make

further premium payments hereunder shall cease on the first to

occur, if any, of:

           (a)  the giving of notice by the Insured to the

     Company that the Company is thereafter relieved of

     any further obligation to make premium payments

     under this Insurance Agreement; and

           (b)  the failure of the Owner to pay the

     portion of any premium the Owner is obligated to pay

     hereunder within 30 days of written demand by the

     Company for such payment, which written demand may

     be made only after the Owner fails to pay its

     portion of premium on the date set forth for the

     payment of such premium under paragraph 1 hereof,

     provided that this subparagraph (b) shall not apply



                                 -14-









     
<PAGE>



      if the Company elects to pay the Owner's portion of

      such premium pursuant to paragraph 10 hereunder.

           10.  Default by Owner.  If the Owner fails to pay

the portion of any premium due and payable which the Owner is

obligated to pay hereunder within the period described in

paragraph 9(b) hereof, the Company, in its sole discretion,

may elect to pay such portion of the premium, which amount

shall thereafter be recovered by the Company as part of the

Repayment Amount and, if the Company elects to pay such

portion, this Insurance Agreement shall thereafter continue to

apply as if the Owner had timely paid its portion of such

premium.  If the Owner fails to pay its portion of any premium

payable hereunder, the Company's sole remedy with respect to

such failure shall be (i) if the Company does not elect to pay

the Owner's portion of the premium pursuant to this paragraph

10, the cessation of the Company's obligation to make further

premium payments pursuant to paragraph 9(b) hereof or (ii) if

the Company elects to pay the Owner's portion of the premium

pursuant to this paragraph 10, the recovery of such amount as

part of the Repayment Amount.

            11.  Default by Company.  In the event that the

Company shall be in default as to any premium payment due

under paragraph 1 hereunder with respect to the Insurance

Contract, the application of Policy Values to maintain the

amount of insurance provided under the Insurance Contract

immediately prior to the Company's default shall not discharge



                                 -15-





     
<PAGE>



the Company's obligation hereunder with respect to such

premium or any subsequent premiums and the Company shall be

required to pay as premium on the Insurance Contract (a) the

amount as to which the Company is in default under paragraph 1

hereof (the "Default Amount") and (b) the Restoration Amount.

For purposes of this Insurance Agreement, the Restoration

Amount shall be, as of any date, that amount which, when added

to the Default Amount, would increase the Cash Surrender Value

to the amount such Cash Surrender Value would have been as of

such date if the Default Amount had been timely paid, such

amount to be determined on the basis of the investment return

credited to the Cash Surrender Value during the period from

the original due date of the Default Amount until the date on

which the Restoration Amount is paid.  If any portion of the

Restoration Amount has not been repaid by the Company prior to

the termination of this Insurance Agreement, the Repayment

Amount payable to the Company on such termination shall be

reduced by such portion of the Restoration Amount.

            12.  Notification of Insurer.  Except as otherwise

provided herein, at any time that the Company shall be

entitled under the provisions hereof to recover the Repayment

Amount with respect to the Insurance Contract, the Company

shall notify the Owner and the Insurer of the amount that the

Company claims it is entitled so to recover and, unless the

Owner objects in writing to the Company and the Insurer within

thirty (30) days of such notice, the Insurer is hereby



                                 -16-









     
<PAGE>



authorized to recognize such statement of the Company without

investigation or the giving of any notice and shall be fully

protected in paying such amount to the Company.  If the

Insurer receives written notice from the Owner controverting

the amount payable to the Company, the Insurer shall make no

payments with respect to such Insurance Contract except upon

written instructions signed by both the Owner and the Company

or in accordance with a final, non-appealable order of a court

of competent jurisdiction.  The written acknowledgment of

receipt by the Company of any funds paid to the Company

pursuant to its statement of the amount payable to it shall be

a full discharge and release of the Insurer by the Company

with respect to such payment.  The Insurer shall be relieved

of any and all responsibility to any party claiming an

interest in the Insurance Contract for any decrease in cash

value or death benefit resulting from the exercise of any

right as to which both the Owner and the Company have

consented or which is specifically permitted hereunder.

          13.   Owner.  (a) The undersigned Owner shall be the

sole and absolute owner of the Insurance Contract and shall

have all rights of ownership in the Insurance Contract except

to the extent otherwise specifically provided in this

Insurance Agreement and the Collateral Assignment.  Without

limiting any other rights not specifically enumerated, the

Owner specifically reserves, subject to the Company's rights

under this Insurance Agreement, the right to designate the



                                 -17-









     
<PAGE>



beneficiary or beneficiaries of the death benefit payable

under the Insurance Contract and to elect any optional mode of

settlement permitted by the Insurance Contract or allowed by

the Insurer.

           (b)  The Owner shall have the right to exercise any

investment option available under the Insurance Contract

provided that the exercise of any such option shall require

the consent of the Company which shall not be unreasonably

withheld.

           14.  Premium Waiver.  For purposes of computing the

Repayment Amount, no premium waived under a premium waiver

provision of the Insurance Contract shall be treated as having

been paid by the Company.

           15.  Further Assurances.  Each of the Company and

the Owner shall execute and deliver such other instruments and

agreements as shall be necessary or appropriate to carry out

the intent of this Insurance Agreement.

           16.  Amendment.  Except as otherwise provided

herein, this Insurance Agreement may not be amended, altered

or modified, except by a written instrument signed by the

Company and the Owner, or their respective successors or

assigns, and may not be otherwise terminated except as

provided herein.

            17.  Binding Nature of Insurance Agreement.  This

Insurance Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to

the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns, the



                                 -18-

purchase or otherwise.

            18.  Notices.  Any notice, consent or demand

          COLLATERAL ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT dated as of January

4, 1996 by and between DAN CURTIS ROBY, as Trustee of The Roby

any successor as such Trustee being hereinafter referred to as

the "Owner") and DONALDSON, LUFKIN & JENRETTE, INC., a

Delaware corporation (hereinafter referred to as "the

          THE EQUITABLE LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY OF THE UNITED

<PAGE>



          Pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Owner has

agreed to assign the Insurance Contract to the Company as

collateral security for the payment to the Company of the

Repayment Amount as set forth in the Insurance Agreement.

          The parties hereto, in consideration of the

foregoing and the agreements and covenants hereinafter set

forth and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as

follows:

           1.   Owner hereby assigns to the Company, effective

as of the date hereof, the Insurance Contract as collateral

security for payment to the Company of the Repayment Amount

pursuant to the provisions of the Insurance Agreement (such

assignment hereinafter referred to as "the Collateral

Assignment").  The Company shall be entitled to receive the

Repayment Amount, as then determined and subject to the

limitations in paragraph 5 of the Insurance Contract, as

follows:

           (a)  From the death proceeds payable under the

     Insurance Contract on the death of the second to die of

     the Insured and the Insured's Wife;

           (b)  From the cash surrender value of the Insurance

     Contract (hereinafter "the Cash Surrender Value") to the

     extent any such Cash Surrender Value is withdrawn from

     the Insurance Contract by the Owner prior to the death of

     the second to die of the Insured and the Insured's Wife

     other than by a withdrawal permitted under paragraph



                                  -2-









     
<PAGE>



     7(b)(i) of the Insurance Agreement (but including by

     reason of a surrender or cancellation of the Insurance

     Contract pursuant to paragraph 7 of the Insurance

     Agreement); or

           (c)  At such time as the Owner obtains the

     release of the Collateral Assignment hereunder in

     accordance with paragraph 8 of the Insurance

     Agreement.

The Collateral Assignment of the Insurance Contract to the

Company made herein shall not be terminated (except as

otherwise provided in the Insurance Agreement), altered or

amended by the Owner without the express written consent of

the Company.

           2.   Release of Collateral Assignment.  The Owner

shall obtain the release of the Collateral Assignment to the

Company of the Insurance Contract in the manner and at such

time as set forth in paragraph 8 of the Insurance Agreement.

           3.   Payment by Insurer.   Owner hereby authorizes

the Insurer to rely solely on the written statement of the

Company as to the amount payable to the Company with respect

to the Insurance Contract as of any date unless the Insurer

receives notice in writing from the Owner given within thirty

(30) days of receipt of such written statement of the Company

controverting the Company's statement of such amount payable.

If the Insurer receives no such written notice from the Owner,

the Insurer is hereby authorized to recognize such statement



                                  -3-

taxes; and

obtains the release of the Collateral Assignment pursuant to

the provisions of paragraph 8 of the Insurance Agreement.

            (iii)  The Owner shall surrender the Insurance

Contract at such time as the Company, based on information

provided by the Insurer, notifies the Owner that the total

term of the Insurance Agreement except (i) as provided in

subparagraph 8(f) thereof and (ii) after the death of the

any, as an item of gross income for purposes of computing such

taxes of (A) the economic benefit (as defined in paragraph 1

of the Insurance Agreement) of the insurance protection then

provided to the Owner on the life of the Insured's Wife under

the Insurance Contract and the Insurance Agreement and (B) any

portion of, or increase in, the Cash Surrender Value.

("TENANT"). This Amendment is entered into with reference to the following
facts:

     A. Landlord is the lessor and Tenant is the lessee pursuant to that
certain Agreement of Lease dated as of October 26, 1994, as amended by a First
Amendment of Agreement of Lease dated as of March 30, 1995 (collectively, the

     B. A memorandum of the Lease was recorded on November 22, 1994 in Reel
2157, Page 452, in the New York County Register's Office, State of New York.

     C. Landlord and Tenant desire to amend certain terms and provisions of
the Lease to facilitate conversion of the Building to condominium ownership so

     lease(s) or sublease(s) pertaining to Condominium Units during any period
     in which the Building or any portion thereof is held by condominium
     ownership), including the Overlease constituting part of the IDA
     Documents, and all renewals, extensions, supplements, amendments and

be the smallest area that, as transferred to the IDA, would permit Tenant to
take full advantage of any Public Inducements relating to Taxes available as
of the date hereof. Tenant agrees that at Landlord's request, Tenant promptly
shall take any and all actions necessary to reduce the IDA Premises to the
Minimum IDA Premises. In such event, Landlord shall: (i) pay the Actual Cost

occur prior to July 1, 1996.

     delivery to Tenant of an Asbestos Abatement Certificate regarding the
     Twenty Fifth Floor together with clearance data to establish that air in

3    Permitted Uses.

      The second sentence of Section 2.1 of the Lease is amended and restated
to read as follows:

      Tenant shall use and occupy the Cellar Storage Premises and the Seventh
      Floor Storage Premises for office or storage purposes incidental to
      Tenant's use of the Office Premises for the uses set forth herein, and
      for no other purpose other than as set forth in Section 2.4. Tenant
      shall use and occupy the Twenty Eighth Floor Storage Premises for:
      storage purposes incidental to Tenant's use of the Office Premises for
      the uses set forth herein (including by placing lockers for Tenant's
      cleaning or maintenance personnel in a portion of such premises) and for
      no other purpose other than as set forth in Section 2.4. All of the
      foregoing permitted uses shall be subject to Article 6 of this Lease.


4    Twenty Eighth Floor Storage Premises: Delivery of Premises and Landlord's
     Work.


      4.1 Delivery and Pre-Possession Work. The Commencement Date for the
Twenty Eighth Floor Storage Premises shall be January 1, 1996 (the "TWENTY
EIGHTH FLOOR STORAGE PREMISES COMMENCEMENT DATE") Tenant shall take the
Twenty Eighth Floor Storage Premises on the date hereof in its "as-is"
condition, and Landlord shall not be obligated to perform any Pre-Possession
Work or other preparation of any kind with respect to the Twenty Eighth Floor
Storage Premises, except that Landlord shall promptly deliver to Tenant an
Asbestos Abatement Certificate regarding the Twenty Eighth Floor Storage
Premises together with clearance data to establish that air in the Twenty
Eighth Floor Storage Premises does not contain asbestos fibers in violation of
the Requirements. Landlord shall not be required to give further notice of
such Commencement Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other
provision of this Lease, except for the deliveries required by this paragraph
Landlord shall have no obligations to Tenant under Article 9 of the Lease with
respect to the Twenty-Eighth Floor Storage Premises.

      4.2 Post-Possession Work. Landlord shall not be obligated to perform any
Post-Possession Work with respect to the Twenty Eighth Floor Storage Premises.


5    New Tower Premises: Delivery of Premises and Landlord's Work.


     5.1 Delivery and Pre-Possession Work. Notwithstanding the exceptions to
Substantial Completion set forth in clauses "i" and "ii" below, the Commencement
Date for the New Tower Premises shall be the date of this Amendment (the "New
Tower Premises Commencement Date"). Landlord represents and warrants that
Landlord has Substantially Completed the same Pre-Possession Work for the New
Tower Premises that Landlord was required to perform for the Office Premises
initially demised under the Lease (the "NEW TOWER PREMISES PRE-POSSESSION
WORK"), including delivery to Tenant of an Asbestos Abatement Certificate
regarding the New Tower Premises together



                                       4








     
<PAGE>



with clearance data to establish that air in the New Tower Premises does not
contain asbestos fibers in violation of the Requirements, except that (i)
Landlord has not yet but shall promptly repair any air induction units in the
New Tower Premises that Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord that Tenant
believes are leaking air as of the New Tower Premises Commencement Date
(except for those units that Tenant chooses to replace with fan coils pursuant
to Section 5.4 of this Amendment No. 4), and (ii) Landlord has not yet but
shall promptly complete horizontal insulation of any existing HVAC ducts in
the New Tower Premises. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this
Lease, Tenant shall have thirty (30) days from the date on which the items of
work described in clauses "i" and "ii" above have been Substantially Completed
(and Landlord notifies Tenant of such Substantial Completion) to deliver a
Punchlist to Landlord with respect to such items. For the New Tower Premises,
Landlord and Tenant shall have the same rights and obligations as set forth in
Section 3.2 of the Lease with respect to Landlord's Pre-Possession Work
beginning from and after the Commencement Date for the New Tower Premises.
Tenant shall not be obligated to contribute to, and Landlord shall pay for,
air monitoring and asbestos consulting fees with respect to the New Tower
Premises.

     5.2 Post-Possession Work.

            5.2.1 Description. As Landlord's Post-Possession Work for the New
Tower Premises (the "NEW TOWER PREMISES POST-POSSESSION WORK"), Landlord shall
be obligated to perform only the items of work listed below, and shall have no
obligation to perform any work that would otherwise be required as
"Post-Possession Work" under the Lease. Landlord shall perform the New Tower
Premises Post-Possession Work in coordination with Tenant's Initial
Alterations and in substantial compliance with a schedule to be reasonably
agreed upon by the parties. The New Tower Premises Post-Possession Work shall
consist only of the following work described in Exhibit "N" of the Lease:

            II(B)(1) -- At Landlord's cost, Landlord shall submeter the New
            Tower Premises, providing 6 watts per unit of Space Factor demand,
            exclusive of air conditioning; and

            5.2.2 New Tower Premises HVAC Credit. Landlord shall allow Tenant
a credit in the amount of One Hundred Twenty Six Thousand Nine Hundred Fifty
Dollars ($126,950) against Tenant's monetary obligations under the Lease. Such
credit reflects a reasonable estimate of the cost that Tenant will incur in
order to modify the HVAC system in the New Tower Premises to comply with
EXHIBIT "O" of the Lease.

            5.2.3 Connection to Chilled Water Risers. Tenant, at Tenant's sole
cost, may at its option extend the existing chilled water risers connected to
the seventh (7th) floor chiller plant from Tenant's Premises on or below the
twenty fifth (25th) floor through the New Tower Premises through the shaftway
located immediately east of the freight elevator slop sink and immediately
north of the north stairwell across the freight-elevator lobby from the
freight elevator. The final route of such risers within the shaftway shall be
subject to Landlord's reasonable approval, the parties acknowledging that such
route should be as close to straight as reasonably possible taking into
account site conditions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease,
Landlord shall not be responsible for any asbestos abatement that might be
necessitated by the extension or installation of such risers. Tenant, at
Tenant's cost, shall make all necessary connections from such extended risers
to each floor of the New Tower Premises, sized for no less than twenty (20)
tons capacity per floor, provided, however, that Landlord shall be responsible
for the operating costs (consisting of electricity, water, labor and
maintenance costs) of providing the New Tower Premises with twenty (20) tons
of such extended chilled water capacity (prorated to 13.85 tons capacity for
the portion of the 33rd floor



                                       5







     
<PAGE>



initially demised under this Amendment No. 4) during HVAC Standard Hours. Upon
completion and delivery of such risers by Tenant in accordance with
Section 5.2.3.2 below, such risers shall become part of the Shared HVAC system
and shall be owned by Landlord.

                5.2.3.1 Riser Capacity and Size. The parties acknowledge that
the new risers to be installed by Tenant may potentially have a capacity of up
to 100 tons per floor and may occupy a vertical volume whose horizontal
dimensions are up to approximately 24 by 36 inches.

                5.2.3.2 Standard of Quality. The extended chilled water risers
to be installed by Tenant pursuant to this Section 5.2.3 shall consist of no
less than two (2) six-inch pipes (or pipes of equivalent capacity) and shall
be constructed to a standard of quality comparable to the standard of quality
used for the risers in the Shared HVAC system. Such risers shall be
constructed by contractors selected in accordance with Section 5.1(E) of the
Lease or otherwise approved in writing by Landlord (which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld) and shall be delivered by Tenant to Landlord in
accordance with Section 4.9 of the Lease. All construction shall be in
compliance with the terms of the Lease and any applicable Requirements.

            5.2.4 Landlord's HVAC Performance Obligations. When and as required
by Section 8.3 of the Lease, Landlord shall provide Tenant with HVAC to the
New Tower Premises, except that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
the Lease:

                 5.2.4.1 Landlord's Specifications. Landlord's only obligation
with respect to New Tower Premises HVAC shall be to make available during HVAC
Standard Hours such HVAC capacity as is presently available to the 33rd and
34th floors (the "NEW TOWER PREMISES EXISTING HVAC"), consisting of the
following, assuming in each case one person per 100 usable square feet at a
room design temperature of 75 degrees fahrenheit: (i) existing induction units
(perimeter) with a 15-foot perimeter band sufficient to support an average
of 3.25 watts per square foot of light and equipment loads (existing induction
units' quantities and capacities are the same as indicated for the 20th
through 23rd floors as stated in EXHIBIT "O" to the Lease); (ii) 8920 cubic
feet per minute for the interior system at a minimum static pressure of 1.25"
w.g. and temperature not to exceed 61 degrees fahrenheit and outside air of at
least 20 CFM per person, which is sufficient to support light and equipment
loads of 4.00 watts per usable square foot of interior space, producing (iii)
an overall HVAC capacity for the New Tower Premises of 3.70 watts per usable
square foot.

                 5.2.4.2 Lease Specifications. Landlord shall not be responsible
for assuring that HVAC in the New Tower Premises complies with EXHIBIT "O" of
the Lease.

            5.2.5 Inadequate HVAC. If at any time Tenant determines that HVAC
on any floor(s) of the New Tower Premises is inadequate even though Landlord
is performing Landlord's obligations to continue to provide HVAC equal to the
New Tower Premises Existing HVAC, then the parties shall reasonably cooperate
to design suitable enhancements and expansions to the HVAC system for the
affected floor(s), all subject to Landlord's reasonable approval. Tenant shall
pay all costs (including Landlord's Actual Costs incurred) of designing,
installing, constructing and connecting such enhancements and expansions,
which shall when completed and accepted by Landlord then become part of the
Building HVAC system.

            5.2.6 Completion. Landlord and Tenant shall have the same rights
and obligations with respect to the New Tower Premises Post-Possession Work as
are set forth in Sections 3.4(A), (D) and (E) of the Lease with respect to
Landlord's Post-Possession Work.




                                       6

            5.2.7 Drain Line. Tenant has indicated that Tenant desires to
install a drain line in the ceiling of the space (the "ARAB BANK SPACE") on
the 32nd and 33rd floors of the Building occupied by Arab Banking Corporation
B.S.C. ("ARAB BANK") pursuant to a lease between Arab Bank and Landlord (the
"ARAB BANK LEASE"). With respect to installation of such drain line in the
ceiling of the Arab Bank Space, Landlord and Tenant shall have all of the same
rights and obligations set forth in Section 5.6(B) of the Lease for the
Sumitomo Space, except that: (a) every occurrence of the word "Sumitomo" shall
be deemed to be replaced by the words "Arab Bank" and (b) each reference to
the sixth-floor ceiling shall be deemed replaced by a reference to the ceiling
of the Arab Bank Space. Landlord hereby advises Tenant that Arab Bank is about
to commence, or has commenced, its tenant fixturization work, and Tenant
should install any necessary drain lines in the ceiling of the Arab Bank
space as promptly as possible after the date hereof in order to minimize any
potential for disruption, expense, or conflict.

      5.3 Additional Work. (a) As Landlord's Additional Work for the New Tower
Premises, Landlord shall perform only the following items listed in EXHIBIT
"KK" of the Lease (the "NEW TOWER PREMISES ADDITIONAL WORK"), which New Tower
Premises Additional Work shall be performed in compliance with Section 3.7 of
the Lease (disregarding the reference to January 31, 1996):

      I(A) The enclosure of the Building for each floor shall be weather
      tight, with all windows caulked and repaired. Dow silicon sealant shall
      be applied to all windows.

      I(C) Sufficient generator capacity shall be provided for all Tenant EXIT
      and emergency lighting to maintain minimum Standard Local Law #16.

      I(D) Elevator call buttons shall meet Local Law 58 and ADA requirements.

      (b)Landlord shall (by June 26, 1996) close up the one internal stairway
opening between floors 32 and 33, and (at Tenant's option, within 45 days
[subject to Unavoidable Delays] after Tenant's request, which request must be
made, if at all, by November 1, 1996) the one internal stairway opening within
the New Tower Premises between floors 33 and 34. In closing such opening(s),
Landlord shall coordinate Landlord's work with Tenant's Alterations.

      5.4 Fan Coils. Tenant shall have the option to replace at Tenant's
expense the existing induction units located around the perimeter of either or
both floors (or, in the case of the thirty third (33rd) floor, the portion of
the floor occupied by Tenant) of the New Tower Premises with new fan coils
prior to occupying the New Tower Premises. Such coils shall be of quality
comparable to those installed by Tenant in connection with the Shared HVAC
system. If any work or shutdown shall or would interfere with any other tenant
or affect Building Systems serving common areas of the Building not used
exclusively by Tenant, then Landlord and Tenant shall jointly agree upon a
schedule pursuant to which Tenant may perform such work or temporarily shut
down certain Building systems to facilitate such replacement. Tenant shall
comply with such schedule. To the extent that Tenant's work or shutdown would
not interfere with any other tenant or affect Building Systems serving common
areas of the Building not used exclusively by Tenant, Tenant may proceed based
on such schedule as Tenant shall establish.

6    Tenant Fund.

     In the first sentence of Section 5.5(A) of the Lease, the words "Thirty
Nine Million Four Hundred Twenty Six Thousand Dollars ($39,426,000)" are
deleted and replaced by the following words: "Forty Million Eight Hundred
Eighty One Thousand Six Hundred Eighty Dollars ($40,881,680)." The preceding
amount reflects the new total amount of the Tenant Fund, including both (i)
portions that have been disbursed on or prior to the date hereof and (ii)
portions that have not yet been disbursed.

      the seventeenth (17th) through twenty fifth (25th) floors, the thirty
      fourth (34th) floor and the portion of the thirty third (33rd) floor
      constituting Premises, as well as the right at Tenant's expense to
      install replacement windows (to attenuate sound) on the eastern exposure
      of the seventeenth (17th) through twenty fifth (25th) floors, and the
      thirty third (33rd) and thirty fourth (34th) floors.

      (c) the Base Building mechanical rooms on the Seventh Floor and areas of
      the twenty eighth (28th) floor other than the Twenty Eighth Floor
      Storage Premises contain ACM, none of which will interfere with Tenant's
      Alterations or operations;


11  Escalation.

      11.1 Base Operating Year. Section 11.1(C) of the Lease is amended and
restated to read as follows:

      (C) "BASE OPERATING YEAR" shall mean the calendar year ending December
      31, 1995, except that for the New Tower Premises, the Base Operating
      Year shall mean the calendar year ending December 31, 1996.

      11.2 Base Taxes. Section 11.1(D) of the Lease is amended and restated
to read as follows:

      (D) "BASE TAXES" shall mean the Taxes payable for the Base Tax Year.
      Because the Base Tax Year for the New Tower Premises is calendar year
      1996, for the New Tower Premises, Base Taxes shall mean the average of
      (i) the Taxes payable for the Tax Year commencing July 1, 1995 and

      June 30, 1995 and (ii) for the New Tower Premises, the Base Tax Year
      shall mean calendar year 1996.


12    Electrical Work for New Tower Premises.

      Landlord and Tenant shall have the same rights and obligations with
respect to the electrical work for the New Tower Premises as are set forth in
Section 12.3(E) of the Lease, contained in Amendment No. 1.


13   Air Conditioning Units in Twenty Eighth Floor Storage Premises.

     13.1 Existing Units. As of the date hereof, two (2) air cooled floor
mounted air conditioning units, identified as units AC-5-1 and AC-5-2, are
located in the Twenty Eighth Floor Storage Premises. Landlord shall be
permitted to obtain access to and use for Landlord's purposes the unit
identified as unit AC-5-1 (located to the west of the other such unit).
Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant to prevent such access and use by
Landlord from causing unreasonable interference with Tenant's use of the
Twenty Eighth Floor Storage Premises.

     13.2 Removal of Unit AC-5-2; Installation of New Unit. Tenant shall, at
Tenant's sole expense, remove unit AC-5-2 and install a new ceiling-hung air
conditioning unit (provided that such unit shall not materially impair
Landlord's ability to access and use unit AC-5-1). Landlord shall operate and
maintain both of such units unless otherwise agreed by Landlord and Tenant,
provided that Tenant may elect at any time to assume the maintenance of the
unit Tenant installs. Until such time as Tenant may assume such maintenance,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent an amount equal to Landlord's
Actual Cost of maintenance and operation with respect to the unit Tenant
installs. For purposes of the air conditioning unit to be installed by Tenant
pursuant to this paragraph or Tenant's future air conditioning requirements,
Tenant may at Tenant's sole cost and expense use the louver formerly connected
to Unit AC-5-2.

      13.3 Reconnection of Unit AC-5-1. Promptly after the date of this
Amendment No. 4, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost, reconnect unit AC-5-1,
including connections to the existing louver for condenser air, and
connections for electricity. Tenant shall not, however, be required to repair
such unit or restore it to operability. Tenant shall install a full size
supply air duct (but no return air duct), which shall be reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord, from Unit AC-5-1 to a point that is approximately
six inches from the inside of the demising wall of the Twenty Eighth Floor
Storage Premises (excluding any code-required damper), and Landlord shall
credit against Rental an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of Tenant's
Actual Cost of installing such duct work.


14   33rd Floor Common Areas.

     Tenant has confirmed to Landlord that Tenant desires the common area
corridor, the elevator lobby and the common bathrooms on the thirty third
(33rd) floor (collectively, the "THIRTY THIRD



                                       9







     
<PAGE>



FLOOR COMMON AREAS") to be built out and decorated to a higher standard of
quality than Landlord's usual standard for such common areas. Tenant shall
assume responsibility for the buildout of the Thirty Third Floor Common Areas
and shall have exclusive control (not subject to Landlord's approval) with
respect to the design and decoration of the Thirty Third Floor Common Areas,
provided that such areas substantially conform to Tenant's standards for other
such areas within the Premises. Landlord shall have no further obligations
with respect to such buildout and the decoration of the Thirty Third Floor
Common Areas, except that Landlord shall allow Tenant a credit against
Tenant's next Rental payments in the amount of twenty thousand dollars
($20,000) toward Tenant's cost of completing such work. Tenant shall complete
all such work in the Thirty Third Floor Common Areas on or prior to the later
of (i) June 15, 1996 and (ii) the date on which Arab Banking Corporation
B.S.C. shall occupy the space leased by it on the thirty third (33rd) floor
of the Building. Tenant shall coordinate such work with Landlord so as not to
unreasonably interfere with other tenants occupying the thirty third (33rd)
floor of the Building and shall comply with all otherwise applicable Building
rules, the Requirements and any other requirements of this Lease. This section
shall not limit the general applicability of Section 13.5 of the Lease to
common area corridors on other multi-tenant floors.


15   Shared HVAC System.

      The parties acknowledge that Tenant has expanded the Shared HVAC system
to include the twentieth (20th) floor of the Building. The parties confirm
that HVAC for the 20th floor during the period 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Business
Days shall be paid for by Tenant and not Landlord. HVAC during other periods
shall be governed by the applicable provisions of the Lease as they would
apply to the fourteenth through nineteenth floors of the Building. To the
extent, if any, that Landlord has incurred or shall incur during the Term any
incremental Actual Cost (for water, electrical, labor or maintenance costs)
for Tenant's HVAC usage on the twentieth (20th) floor during the periods
7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Business Days, Tenant shall reimburse such Actual Cost. To
the extent that existing equipment is capable of measuring such Actual Cost,
the reimbursement shall be based on such measurement. To the extent that
existing equipment is not capable of measuring such incremental Actual Cost
incurred by Landlord, the parties shall reasonably agree upon modifications of
such equipment, or installations of new metering equipment, as reasonably
necessary, all to be performed at Tenant's expense, to permit separate
measurement of such incremental Actual Cost incurred by Landlord. For purposes
of the foregoing calculations, water usage for perimeter fan coils on the 20th
floor shall be allocated based on a fraction whose numerator is the number of
perimeter fan coils on the 20th floor and whose denominator is the number of
perimeter fan coils for the 14th through 20th floors.


16   Incorporation of Certain Additional Agreements.

      Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to all terms set forth in EXHIBIT B to
this Amendment (certain of which have already been performed as of the date
hereof), which are hereby incorporated by reference into this Lease and made a
part hereof. Nothing in EXHIBIT B shall be deemed to require Landlord to
perform any Pre-Possession Work or Post-Possession Work, or incur any expense,
with respect to the New Tower Premises or the Storage Premises demised
pursuant to this Amendment, not expressly required by the text of this
Amendment.

17   No Other Changes.

     Except for the foregoing changes in the Lease, the parties ratify and
confirm the Lease, as amended by this Amendment. Landlord and Tenant
acknowledge and agree that the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, is in full
force and effect in accordance with its terms. Any inconsistency between this
Amendment and the Lease (as it existed before this Amendment) shall be
resolved in favor of this Amendment, whether or not this Amendment
specifically modifies the particular provision(s) in the Lease inconsistent
with this Amendment. Wherever the Lease refers to the Lease, such reference
shall be deemed to refer to the Lease as modified by this Amendment. Section
40.3 of the Lease shall apply to this Amendment as if set forth in full
verbatim.


18   Miscellaneous.

     18.1 Representations, Warranties and Confirmations. Each party
represents, warrants and confirms that this Amendment is a valid, legal, and
binding obligation of such party enforceable in accordance with its terms and
that the Lease is in full force and effect and has not been supplemented,
modified or otherwise amended, except pursuant to this Amendment, or cancelled
or terminated.

      18.2 Recording. This Amendment shall not be recorded; however, either
party shall upon request of the other execute, acknowledge and deliver a
memorandum with respect to this Amendment sufficient for recording.

                                 EXHIBIT B


                       CERTAIN ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS
                        BETWEEN LANDLORD AND TENANT



      A. Two 40-Ton Chillers. Reference is made to the 2-40 ton chillers
located on the 7th floor of the Building, as referred to in paragraph "5" of
Exhibit GG of the Lease (the "Chillers"). Tenant shall relocate the Chillers
to a location on the seventh floor, reasonably designated by Landlord, outside
but approximately six column bays to the west of the chiller room in which the
Chillers are presently located. To relocate the Chillers, Tenant shall break
through the existing wall of the chiller room, move the Chillers to their new
location without damaging them, and then reconstruct the existing wall to its
pre-existing condition, all in compliance with the Lease and Landlord's
reasonable requirements. Tenant shall have no obligation to reconnect the
Chillers.

     B. Shared HVAC.

            1. New Make-Up Water Pump. Landlord shall install a new make-up
water pump. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent an amount equal to
Landlord's Actual Cost for such work, all as part of Tenant's completion of
the Shared HVAC Work. Such Actual Cost will consist of: (a) actual
construction costs ("Hard Costs") in the amount of $17,669 plus tax; plus (b)
third-party consulting, design, filing and expediting charges (collectively,
"Soft Costs") expected not to exceed $5,000.

            2. Dry Cooler. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has removed a dry
cooler that was located on the 18th floor at the time Landlord delivered the
18th floor to Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent an
amount equal to Landlord's Actual Cost for such removal, all as part of
Tenant's completion of the Shared HVAC Work. Such Actual Cost will consist of:
(a) Hard Costs already incurred in the amount of $12,381 plus tax; plus (b)
Soft Costs expected not to exceed $6,000.

            3. Backup Documentation. Landlord shall promptly provide Tenant
with backup documentation to substantiate the foregoing Actual Costs relating
to the new make-up water pump and the dry cooler. To the extent that Landlord
is unable to substantiate such Actual Costs they shall be adjusted
accordingly.

     C. Landlord's HVAC Isolation Dampers and Taps.

            1. Adjustment of Date. For purposes of the Post-Possession Work
Substantial Completion Deadlines, Section 3.4(a) of the Lease, and any other
provision(s) of the Lease that require Landlord to Substantially Complete the
isolation dampers and taps by June 1, 1995, Tenant agrees that Landlord shall
be deemed to have completed the isolation dampers and taps in compliance with
the applicable timing requirements of the Lease, and Tenant shall not be
entitled to any Delayed Rent Credits or other rights or remedies on account of
the timing of Landlord's Substantial Completion of the isolation dampers and
taps. Landlord acknowledges that upon Tenant's request, Landlord shall
promptly raise two of such taps (as previously specified by Tenant); such
adjustments shall be deemed a punchlist item and shall not be considered part
of Substantial Completion of such isolation dampers and taps.

<PAGE>



            2. Withdrawal of Dispute Letters. Landlord and Tenant hereby
withdraw the following notices and letters (the "Dispute Letters") as they
relate to isolation dampers and taps: (a) Landlord's letter to Tenant dated
April 19, 1995, regarding delays by Tenant; (b) Tenant's letter to Landlord
dated June 5, 1995 disclaiming responsibility for delay; (c) Tenant's letter
to Landlord dated June 8, 1995, asserting that Landlord failed to meet the
Post-Possession Work Substantial Completion Deadline for isolation dampers and
taps; and (d) Landlord's letter to Tenant dated June 13, 1995, regarding the
meeting held on June 14.

            3. Incremental Costs. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has
incurred incremental costs that Landlord would not otherwise have been
required to incur in order to accommodate certain requests of Tenant with
respect to Landlord's Post-Possession Work relating to HVAC. Provided that,
and only to the extent that, such incremental costs would not otherwise have
been incurred by Landlord and Landlord provides reasonable documentation of
the Actual Costs incurred by Landlord, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for
such Actual Costs as Additional Rent.

     D. Existing Wiring in Electrical Closets.

            1. Modification of Responsibility. In Exhibit W-1 of the Lease,
paragraph number "B(2)" (immediately before paragraph "a") is modified to read
as follows (without any revision to the letter "T" in the left-hand column
adjacent to such paragraph):

     Local Electric Closets. Existing closet electric wiring no longer in use
     (as previously identified by Landlord to Tenant's contractor, Structure
     Tone) shall be completely removed by the Tenant prior to the closet
     fit-outs, except that existing risers serving floors above the 18th floor
     may be retained if required by the Landlord.

            2. Mecanics and Cost of Samuels Electrical Work. Reference is made
to the letter dated June 20, 1995 from Robert B. Samuels Inc. to Structure
Tone Inc. (the "Samuels Proposal"). In order to effectuate the removal of the
existing closet electric wiring referred to in Section D.1 above, Tenant
shall enter into a separate contract with Robert B. Samuels Inc. for the
performance of the eight (8) items of work (collectively, the "Samuels
Proposal Work") described in the Samuels Proposal. Landlord shall contribute
50% of the cost of completing items 1, 6 and 7 of the Samuels Proposal Work,
which cost is presently budgeted at $71,500. Landlord shall contribute 25% of
the cost of completing items 2, 3, 4, 5 and 8 of the Samuels Proposal Work,
which cost is presently budgeted at $39,500. Tenant will provide power
circuitry to support base building ATC panels and certain other existing uses
requiring feeds in such closets located within and serving the Premises, which
existing uses consist of: electric closet lighting circuits, elevator machine
rooms lighting and appliance circuits, receptacle outlet circuits in electric
and telephone closets and convenience outlets on setbacks. Landlord will not
be responsible for ongoing costs relating thereto but will be responsible for
maintaining and repairing all base building systems located in electrical
closets within the Premises.

     E. 24th Floor HVAC.

            1. Removal of Requirement. Section 3.2.1 of the First Amendment of
Agreement of Lease between Landlord and Tenant made and entered into as of
March 30, 1995 (the "First Amendment"), is hereby modified by deleting the
following language therefrom:

     II(C) - At Landlord's cost, Landlord to perform all work required to meet
     the HVAC specifications outlined in Exhibit "O", using condenser water
     with floor-by-floor units.



                                       2







     
<PAGE>



            2. 24th Floor HVAC Credit. Landlord shall allow Tenant a credit in
the amount of Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) against Tenant's
monetary obligations under the Lease and/or as a cash payment to be applied
toward Tenant's net cost (after allowing for Landlord's contribution) of the
Samuels Proposal Work as provided for above, or as a cash payment within
thirty days after Tenant's written request at any time (the "24th Floor HVAC
Credit"). The 24th Floor HVAC Credit reflects a reasonable estimate of the
cost avoided to Landlord because Tenant has advised Landlord that it will not
be necessary for Landlord to provide certain HVAC capacity and equipment that
Landlord had intended to install for the 24th floor.

            3. Landlord's HVAC Performance Obligations. When and as required by
Section 8.3 of the Lease, Landlord shall provide Tenant with HVAC to the 24th
floor, except that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease:

                 a. Landlord's Specifications. Landlord's only obligation with
respect to 24th floor HVAC shall be to make available such HVAC capacity as is
presently available to the 24th floor (the "24th floor Existing HVAC"),
consisting of the following, assuming in each case one person per 100 usable
square feet at a room design temperature of 75 degrees fahrenheit: (i)
existing induction units (perimeter) with a 15-foot perimeter band sufficient
to support an average of 3.25 watts per square foot of light and equipment
loads; (ii) 7165 cubic feet per minute for the interior system at a minimum
static pressure of 1.25" w.g. and temperature not to exceed 54 degrees
fahrenheit, which is sufficient to support light and equipment loads of 4.00
watts per usable square foot of interior space and to provide an additional
 .75 watts per usable square foot for the perimeter area, producing (iii) an
overall HVAC capacity for the 24th floor of 4.00 watts per usable square foot.

                b. Reallocation of 24th Floor HVAC. For the interior system
(clause "ii" in the preceding paragraph), Tenant shall have the right to
reallocate to the 24th floor any portion of the Tenant interior air quantities
for floors 20 through 23 (as indicated in the "Supply Air Distribution" chart
referred to as part of Exhibit "O" of the Lease).

                 c. Lease Specifications. Landlord shall not be responsible for
assuring that HVAC on the 24th floor complies with EXHIBIT "O" of the Lease.

            4. Inadequate HVAC. If at any time Tenant determines that HVAC on
the 24th floor is inadequate even though Landlord is performing Landlord's
obligations to continue to provide 24th Floor Existing HVAC, then the parties
shall reasonably cooperate to design suitable enhancements and expansions to
the HVAC service for such floor, all subject to Landlord's reasonable
approval. Tenant shall pay all costs (including Landlord's Actual Costs
incurred) of designing, installing, constructing and connecting such
enhancements and expansions, which shall when completed and accepted by
Landlord then become part of the Building HVAC system.

     F. Missing Cable. The parties acknowledge that certain copper wire
cabling on the seventh floor was vandalized and appears to have been removed
by persons unknown (the "Missing Cable"). Landlord shall repair the Missing
Cable as necessary and provide Tenant with a pullbox to make Tenant's
electrical connections on the seventh floor, all by July 15, 1995. Provided
that Landlord complies with the preceding sentence, the foregoing delay shall
not be deemed failure of Landlord to Substantially Complete Landlord's
Post-Possession Electrical Work by the applicable Post-Possession Work
Substantial Completion Deadline.

     G. Seventh-Floor Reconfiguration. Landlord agrees that Tenant may make the
following changes on the seventh floor:

<PAGE>



            1. Tenant's Proposal. Reference is made to the letter dated March
20, 1995, from Robert Luce, RA to Mr. Jim Farley of Stahl Real Estate Company,
a copy of which is annexed hereto, together with the drawings annexed to such
letter (the "Proposal Letter").

            2. Dumbwaiter Space. Tenant may enclose and use and occupy as part
of the Premises, for the entire Term of the Lease, in accordance with all the
terms and conditions of the Lease, but without payment of any Fixed Rent or
Escalation Rent at any time during the Term, the space north of the men's room
on the seventh floor, as shown in Mancini Duffy Dwg. #D7.005 (a copy of which
is attached to the Proposal Letter), identified as Ramp Up 12", Platform, and
DW Shaft (total area approximately 5 feet by 23 feet 7 inches including new
enclosing wall to be built).

            3. New Offset Corridor. Tenant may demolish two existing closets
and the men's room vestibule to provide space for a relocated service
corridor, which Tenant shall build. The demolition is shown in Mancini Duffy
Dwg #D7.006 attached to the Proposal Letter. The new offset service corridor
is shown in Mancini Duffy Dwg #D7.007 attached to the Proposal Letter.

            4. Other. Tenant shall perform the foregoing work substantially as
depicted in the plans annexed to the Proposal Letter, or in such other manner
as Landlord shall reasonably approve, and in all cases in compliance with the
Lease, including the Lease requirements that relate to Alterations.

     H. Convector Covers. Tenant waives any claims against Landlord on account
of nondelivery or nonexistence of convector covers anywhere in the Premises.
Tenant shall replace any missing convector covers to the extent Tenant desires
such missing convector covers to be replaced.
