         STATEMENT APPOINTING DESIGNATED FILER AND AUTHORIZED SIGNATORY

        Each of the undersigned entities and individuals (collectively, the
"Reporting Persons") hereby designates the entity listed in Column II of
SCHEDULE 1 hereto, or such other person or entity as is designated in writing by
George A. Pavlov (any such entity is referred to as the "Designated Filer") as
the beneficial owner to make filings of Schedules 13D and 13G (and any
amendments thereto) pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the "Exchange Act") and of Forms 3, 4 and 5 (and any amendments thereto)
pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act (collectively, the "Reports") with
respect to the securities of the entity listed in Column I of SCHEDULE 1 hereto
and with respect to the securities of any other entity whose securities are now,
or hereafter become, publicly traded and whose securities are beneficially owned
(directly or indirectly) both by such Reporting Person and by such Designated
Entity (collectively, the "Companies").

        Each Reporting Person hereby further authorizes and designates GEORGE A.
PAVLOV (the "Authorized Signatory") to execute and file on behalf of such
Reporting Person the Reports with respect to the securities of the Companies,
including all Schedules 13D and 13G and Forms 3, 4 and 5, and any amendments
thereto, that the Reporting Person may be required to file with the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission as a result of the Reporting Person's
ownership of, or transactions in securities of the Companies.

        The authority of the Designated Filer and the Authorized Signatory under
this document with respect to each Reporting Person shall continue until such
Reporting Person is no longer required to file Schedules 13D or 13G or Forms 3,
4 and 5 with respect to the Reporting Person's ownership of, or transactions in,
the securities of the Companies, unless earlier revoked in writing. Each
Reporting Person acknowledges that the Designated Filer and the Authorized
Signatory are not assuming any of the Reporting Person's responsibilities to
comply with Section 13(d) of Section 16 of the Exchange Act.
