     stable and orderly public market thereafter.

proceed with the proposed public offering, the undersigned will not, directly
or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, make subject to any purchase
option or otherwise dispose of or cause the disposition of any shares of Common
Stock, or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
shares of Common Stock, prior to the expiration of 180 days from the date of the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement, without the prior written consent
of Dillon, Read & Co. Inc., except for distributions of shares of Common Stock
to the undersigned's partners or by transfer to any affiliate of the undersigned
so long as such transferee executes a copy of this letter and becomes bound
thereby.

          The agreement provided for herein shall be effective only if the
proposed public offering takes place on or prior to August 31, 1997.
