ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

     This Account Management Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into as of
the 9th day of November, 2005, by and between CD Capital Management LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("CD Capital"), and New World Opportunity
Partners II, LLC ("Client").

     1. ACCOUNT. Client has established a brokerage account (the "Account") with
Goldman Sachs (the "Broker"). Client will fund the Account with an initial $[*]
in cash. The Client may make additions to, and withdrawals from, the Account at
any time.

     2. AUTHORITY. Client authorizes CD Capital to direct the investments of and
for the Account on a discretionary basis, without prior consultation with
Client, in accordance with the Investment Objectives (defined below) and subject
to such limitations and restrictions set forth in Paragraph 4 below and such
other limitations and restrictions as Client may hereafter impose by notice in
writing to CD Capital. This discretionary authority makes CD Capital the agent,
beneficial owner (as defined in applicable securities law) and attorney-in-fact
with full power and authority in connection with the Account to buy, sell,
exchange, hold, vote and otherwise trade in any and all stocks, bonds and other
securities (including, for the avoidance of doubt, options) as CD Capital may
select, subject to the aforementioned limitations. The authority of CD Capital
under this Agreement shall continue until receipt of written notice of its
termination by Client.

     3. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES. Client hereby instructs CD Capital to manage the
Account in accordance with the "Investment Objectives" described in Schedule 1
attached hereto until such time as CD Capital receives revised written
instructions signed by Client.

     4. LIMITATIONS. Without the prior written direction of Client, CD Capital
shall not buy, sell, sell short or otherwise trade or invest in or take a
position in any securities or any derivatives thereof of issuers (or their
parent or subsidiary companies) identified in Client's "Watchlist," an initial
copy of which is attached as Schedule 2 hereto (which Watchlist will be updated
by Client from time to time and provided to CD Capital).

     5. EXPENSES. CD Capital shall enter orders for the Account with the Broker
or any other executing broker that CD Capital shall work through in its
discretion. All brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket direct investment
expenses, including, but not limited to, the Account's pro rata portion of
out-of-pocket legal, consulting and due diligence expenses, reasonably incurred
in connection with transactions for the Account will be paid out of the assets
of the Account. Any pro rata (based on the total number of shares of each issuer
managed by CD Capital across all accounts) third party expenses in excess of
$10,000 must be approved, in advance by Client.

     6. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

     7. VOTING OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES. The Client and CD Capital will share
decisions on the voting of proxies and any other such matters that may require a
vote. Any voting decisions that cannot be agreed to by the Client and CD Capital
will then be made by the Client.

     8. REPORTS TO CLIENT. It is understood that the Client may access its
Account at anytime and may view the investments and assets of the Account. In
addition, from time to time, promptly upon Client's request, CD Capital shall
prepare and render to Client such reports as Client may reasonably request.

     9. CUSTODY; SOFT DOLLARS. All transactions will be consummated by payments
to, or delivery by, Client of all cash and/or securities due to or from the
Account. The Broker, not CD Capital, shall act as custodian for the Account.
Client shall not withdraw or deposit cash and/or securities in the Account
without simultaneously informing CD Capital. Any "soft dollar" arrangement
between CD Capital and a broker relating to commissions generated by the Account
shall comply with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, unless otherwise consented to by the Client.

manages assets of other accounts. CD Capital will allocate trades among the
accounts in its sole discretion in accordance with its evaluation of the
following criteria: (i) exposure to the securities, issuer or market in
question; (ii) liquidity positions and requirements; (iii) tax considerations;

     13. EXCULPATION. CD Capital shall have no obligations to the Account other
than those expressly set forth in this Agreement and any other obligations
arising by law. CD Capital's responsibility under this Agreement is to furnish
the Account with advisory services based upon its professional skill, experience
and judgment and CD Capital makes no representation or warranty as to the
accomplishment of any particular investment results by the Account. CD Capital,
its managers, officers, members, principals and affiliates and their respective
members, officers, employees and agents (collectively, "Manager Party") shall
not be liable to the Client for any claims, costs, expenses, damages or losses
arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Client, the Account,
and its operation other than to the extent attributable to the fraud or gross
negligence of the Manager Party, the willful disregard of the Manager Party's
duties to Client, or any violation by a Manager Party of the applicable
provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, any
state or local securities laws or any stock exchange or NASDAQ regulations (it
being agreed and understood that if any action (or inaction) taken by CD Capital
or any other Manager Party has been previously discussed with, and agreed to by,
the Client, then such action (or inaction) shall not give rise to any liability
to CD Capital or any other Manager Party).

     No Manager Party shall be liable to the Client for failure to obtain the
lowest negotiated brokerage commission rates, or to combine or arrange orders so
as to obtain the lowest brokerage commission rates with respect to any
transaction on behalf of the Account, or for failure to recapture, directly or
indirectly, any brokerage commissions for the benefit of the Account. No Manager
Party shall be liable to the Client for claims, costs, expenses, damages, or
losses due to circumstances beyond any Manager Party's control, including but
not


                                        3



limited to, the bankruptcy, insolvency or suspension of normal business
activities by any bank, brokerage firm or transfer agent holding assets of the
Account, or due to the negligence, dishonesty, bad faith or misfeasance of any
employee, broker, agent or sub-contractor of the Account chosen by a Manager
Party in good faith.

     In no respect by way of limiting the foregoing exculpatory provisions but
rather by way of greater certainty, no Manager Party shall be liable to the
Client for any actions or omissions of any broker or dealer chosen by a Manager
Party in good faith.

     14. INDEMNIFICATION. The Client shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Manager Parties from and against any loss or expense suffered or sustained by
any of them by reason of the fact that a Manager Party is or was connected in
any respect with the Account, including, without limitation, any judgment,
settlement, attorneys' fees and other costs or expenses incurred in connection
with the defense of any actual or threatened action or proceeding; provided that
the Manager Party would not have been subject to liability under Paragraph 14
hereunder or this Paragraph 15 for the conduct which led to such loss or
expense.

     CD Capital shall indemnify and hold harmless the Client from and against
any loss or expense suffered or sustained by it (including, without limitation,
any judgment, settlement, attorneys' fees and other costs or expenses incurred
in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action or proceeding)
to the extent attributable to the fraud or gross negligence of CD Capital, the
willful disregard of CD Capital's duties to Client, or any violation by CD
Capital of the applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Investment Advisers Act of
1940, as amended, any state or local securities laws or any stock exchange or
NASDAQ regulations (it being agreed and understood that if any action (or
inaction) taken by CD Capital has been previously discussed with, and agreed to
by, the Client, then such action (or inaction) shall not give rise to any
indemnity by CD Capital).

     Whether or not a party is entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be
determined by a court, arbitral tribunal, administrative forum or mutual written
agreement of the parties.

     15. CONFIDENTIAL RELATIONSHIP. Except as otherwise agreed between the
parties, all information and advice furnished by either party to the other
hereunder, including by or to their respective agents and employees, shall be
treated as confidential and shall not be disclosed to third parties except as
required by law. It is explicitly understood that CD Capital is not providing
any tax advice in connection with the advisory services provided hereto.

     16. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. For all purposes of this Agreement, CD Capital
shall be an independent contractor and not an employee or dependent agent of the
Client; nor shall anything herein be construed as making the Client a partner or
co-venturer with CD Capital or any of its affiliates or other clients. Except as
provided in this Agreement, CD Capital shall not have any authority to bind,
obligate or represent the Client.

     17. CONFLICTS, (i) It is understood that CD Capital and its affiliates
perform investment advisory and management services for clients other than the
Client and that CD Capital and its affiliates may for its or their own behalf
effect transactions with respect to investment interests which are the same as
or similar to those which the Client's portfolio may own.

     (ii) CD Capital may give advice, take action and effect transactions with
respect to investment interests in the performance of its duties with respect to
any of its other clients or on its own (or its affiliates') behalf which may
differ from advice given to, or the timing and nature of action taken and
transactions effected with respect to, the Client.

     (iii) Transactions in securities or other investment interests may be
accomplished on behalf of other clients from whom CD Capital has discretionary
authority or on its own (or its affiliates') behalf prior to the time that
recommendations or transactions in the same securities or other investment
interests may be communicated to the Client (or executed by or on behalf of the
Client) and at prices which may be different than those at which


                                        4



transactions in the same securities or other investment interests are executed
by or on behalf of the Client. The compensation which may be received by CD
Capital and/or its affiliates from such other accounts or profits realized on
its own (or its affiliates') behalf may differ from the compensation to be
received by CD Capital from the Client or from the profits realized by the
Client's portfolio (it being understood that CD Capital shall not receive any
compensation from Client hereunder, including from profits realized by the
Client's portfolio).

     19. TERMINATION AND/OR ASSIGNMENT. CD Capital's management of the Account
hereunder may be terminated at any time by either party by giving written notice
to the other party.

     20. PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, TRADEMARKS, AND OTHER PROPERTY RIGHTS. Any and all
inventions, improvements, discoveries, formulas, fund management,

sole and absolute owner of all patents, copyrights, trademarks, and other
property rights to those items.

                              INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

CD Capital and the Client will work together on a go forward basis to identify
and acquire common stock (or common stock equivalent) positions of 5%, but not
more than 10% (without the express written consent of the Client) in small
capitalization public companies where CD Capital and/or the Client in a
coordinated manner intend to influence or change either management or the board
of such companies. For the purposes of clarity, CD Capital and the Client
acknowledge and agree that other third party entities may participate in such
transactions; and therefore, would be deemed to be part of the reporting person
group

An initial position in any company can not be taken unless and until: (a) the
Client has given its written authorization to do so and (b) the Client funds the
capital into the Account. Upon such authorization and funding, CD Capital shall
then acquire the position(s) and actively manage such positions.

CD Capita] may actively hedge any and all positions in the Account by "selling
short" equity securities; and/or purchasing or selling options.
