(other than in writing at the time of execution of this Agreement), whether in writing, by fax or
otherwise, Escrow Agent is authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone
call-back to the person or persons designated on <U>Schedule&nbsp;1</U> for each Stockholder and on
<U>Schedule&nbsp;2</U> with respect to Parent and the Stockholders&#146; Agent, and Escrow Agent may rely
upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The persons
and telephone numbers for call-backs may be changed only in writing actually received and
acknowledged by Escrow Agent. If Escrow Agent is unable to contact any of the authorized
representatives identified in <U>Schedule&nbsp;1 or 2</U>, as applicable, Escrow Agent is hereby
authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any one or more of
the relevant party&#146;s executive officers (&#147;<U>Executive Officers</U>&#148;) if such party is an entity,
which shall include the titles of President and Chief Financial Officer, as Escrow Agent may
select. Such Executive Officer shall deliver to Escrow Agent a fully executed incumbency
certificate, in a form reasonably acceptable to Escrow Agent, and Escrow Agent may rely upon the
confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer. Escrow Agent and the beneficiary&#146;s bank
in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers
provided by Parent or Stockholders&#146; Agent to identify (i)&nbsp;the beneficiary, (ii)&nbsp;the beneficiary&#146;s
bank, or (iii)&nbsp;an intermediary bank. Escrow Agent may apply any portion of the Indemnity Escrow
Fund Balance for any payment order it executes using any such identifying number, even when its use
may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank
other than the beneficiary&#146;s bank or an intermediary bank designated. The parties to this
Agreement acknowledge that these security procedures are commercially reasonable.
