Exec command - different output

Hi Guys, I am trying to to execute the below script in two different machines
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
###############################################################################
# File : pause
###############################################################################
print "\nPlease Press \033[4m\033[0m to continue\c"
read answer

Its resulting the below output.
Code:
prem@host1:exec pause 2>> /tmp/prem.log
Please Press <Enter> to continue Connection to host1 closed.
prem@host1:
prem@host2:exec pause 2>> /tmp/prem.log
Please Press<Enter>  to continue
Connection to host2 closed.
prem@host2:

. When I execute the command in host1 its not waiting for input. Any idea friends? Thanks Prem
