            being offered and sold pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities
            Act, and that the Company's reliance upon Section 4(2) is predicated
            in part on the Shareholder's representations as contained herein.

            4.8.1 The Shareholder is an "accredited investor" as defined under
                  Rule 501 under the Securities Act.

            4.8.2 The Shareholder acknowledges that the Company Shares have not

            4.8.3 The Shareholder is acquiring the Company Shares for its own
                  account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to,
                  or for sale in connection with, a distribution, as that term
                  is used in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, in a manner
                  which would require registration under the Securities Act or
                  any state securities laws.

            4.8.4 The Shareholder understands and acknowledges that the Company
                  Shares will bear the following legend:

<PAGE>

                  THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
                  REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR
                  THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN
                  ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED FOR
                  VALUE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF
                  UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND/OR THE SECURITIES ACT OF

                  ACCEPTABLE TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT
                  REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT OR ACTS.

            4.8.5 The Shareholder acknowledges that an investment in the Company

                  conditions. The Shareholder acknowledges that such securities
                  must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently
                  registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such
                  registration is available. The Shareholder is aware of the
                  provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act,
                  which permits limited resale of securities purchased in a
                  private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain
                  conditions and that such Rule is not now available and, in the
                  future, may not become available for resale of the Company
                  Shares.

      4.9   Shareholder Sophistication and Ability to Bear Risk of Loss. The
            Shareholder acknowledges that she is able to protect her interests
            in connection with the acquisition of the Company Shares and can
            bear the economic risk of investment in such securities without
            producing a material adverse change in her financial condition. The
            Shareholder otherwise has such knowledge and experience in financial
            or business matters that she is capable of evaluating the merits and
            risks of the investment in the Company Shares.

      4.10  Purchases by Groups. The Shareholder represents, warrants, and
            covenants that she is not acquiring the Company Shares as part of a
            group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities
            Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

      4.11  Qualifications, Legal and Investment. All authorizations, approvals,
            or permits, if any, of any governmental authority or regulatory body
            of the United States including "blue sky" filings in any state that
            are required in connection with the lawful sale of the Shares
            pursuant to this Agreement have been or will be, on a timely basis,
            duly obtained and are effective. No stop order or other order
            enjoining the sale of the Shares have been issued and no proceedings
            for such purpose are pending or, to the knowledge of the
            Shareholder, threatened by the SEC, or any commissioner of
            corporations or similar officer of any state having jurisdiction
            over this transaction. The sale of the Shares is legally permitted
            by all laws and regulations to which DAC, the Shareholder, and the
            Company are subject.

                  with the SEC have been so filed on a timely basis, except as
                  indicated in such SEC Reports. As of the time it was filed

                  filing): (i) each of the SEC Reports complied in all material
                  respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities
                  Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of
                  1934, as amended; and (ii) none of the SEC Reports contained
                  any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a
                  material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
                  order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
                  circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

                  statements may not contain footnotes and are subject to normal
                  and recurring year-end audit adjustments which will not,
                  individually or in the aggregate, be material in amount); and
                  (iii) fairly present, in all material respects, the
                  consolidated financial position of the Company and its
                  consolidated subsidiaries as of the respective dates thereof

                  of the financial statements have been included.

      5.5   Exempt Transaction. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and
            warranties of DAC set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement, the
            offer, sale and delivery of the Shares will constitute an exempted
            transaction under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and now in
