owns as of the date hereof as well as any additional Shares that Shareholder may
own, whether acquired by purchase, exercise of options or otherwise, at any time
after the date hereof (the "Shareholder Shares").  Within five business days
after the date hereof (or within five business days after any Shareholder Shares
are acquired during pendency of the Offer, if later), Shareholder shall deliver

instruments required to be delivered pursuant to the terms of the Offer.  With
respect to Shares subject to a prior pledge or hypothecation agreement,
Shareholder agrees that (i) he will not tender or deliver such Shares other than
pursuant to the Offer or to the applicable pledge holder and (ii) he will use
his best efforts to cause the pledge holder to tender the Shares pursuant to the
Offer or to consent to, or otherwise remove any restrictions prohibiting, the
tender of such Shares by the Shareholder.

     Section 1.2. Return of Shares. Buyer will return Shareholder's Share
certificates promptly upon any termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to
Section 11.1 thereof.


                                   ARTICLE 2

                        Voting Agreement; Grant of Proxy

     Section 2.1. Voting Agreement. (a) Until the earliest to occur of (x) the
consummation of the Merger, (y) the nine month anniversary of the date hereof
and (z) the termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1
(thereof (the "Termination Date"), Shareholder hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees to vote or cause to be voted all Shareholder Shares that
Shareholder is entitled to vote at the time of any vote of the shareholders of
the Company where such matters arise (i) in favor of the approval and adoption
of the Merger Agreement and in favor of the transactions contemplated thereby,
(ii) against any proposal or transaction which could prevent or delay the
consummation of the Transactions and (iii) against any (A) Acquisition Proposal
(other than the Merger), (B) corporate action the consummation of which would
frustrate the purposes, or prevent or delay the consummation, of the
Transactions or (C) other matter relating to, or in connection with, any of the
matters referred to in clause (A) and (B) above. Nothing in this Article 2 shall
limit or restrict Shareholder's ability to act or vote in his capacity as an
officer or director of the Company in any manner he so chooses.

     (b)  If any shareholder vote in respect of the Merger Agreement or any of
the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement is taken by written
consent, the provisions of this Agreement imposing obligations in respect of or
in connection with any vote of shareholders shall apply mutatis mutandis to such
action by written consent.

     Section 2.2. Proxy. Shareholder hereby revokes any and all previous proxies
granted with respect to the Shareholder Shares. By entering into this Agreement,
Shareholder hereby grants an irrevocable proxy appointing Buyer as Shareholder's
attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full power of substitution, for and in
Shareholder's name, to vote, express consent or dissent, or otherwise to utilize
such voting power in such manner and upon any of the matters referred to in
Section 2.1 above, as Buyer or its proxy or substitute shall, in Buyer's sole
discretion, deem proper with respect to the Shareholder Shares. The proxy
granted by Shareholder pursuant to this Article 2 is irrevocable and is granted
in consideration of Buyer's entering into the Merger Agreement and to secure the
Shareholder's performance of his agreement and duty to vote or cause to be voted
(including by written consent) all of the Shareholder Shares in favor of the
Merger as set forth in Section 2.1(a) and (b) hereof and such irrevocable proxy
shall remain in effect until the Termination Date, notwithstanding the death or
incapacity of Shareholder; provided, however, that such proxy shall be revoked
on the Termination Date.
