delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the purchase and sale contemplated hereby, nor the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement conflict with or will result in the breach of any of the terms, conditions, or provisions of any agreement or instrument to which any Seller is a party or by which any Seller or any of its assets are bound.

2. Escrow Agent is to hold the Deposit in escrow and deliver it to Seller or Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of this Escrow Agreement. The Deposit shall be deposited by Escrow Agent in an account with a federally insured financial institution.

[CHANGE THIS TO: “an FDIC insured interest-bearing account with a federally insured financial institution. Seller shall execute an IRS Form W-9. The interest earned on the Deposit shall be paid to Seller.” If the deposit is a minimum of $250,000.000 and is going to be held for at least 6 months]

3. In the event the Escrow Agent receives at any time a written statement from Seller or Seller’s counsel (“Seller’s Notice”) stating that (a) Purchaser is in default under the Sales Agreement or (b) Seller is otherwise entitled to the portion of the Deposit under the terms of the Sales Agreement, Escrow Agent shall immediately forward a copy of Seller’s Notice to Purchaser in accordance with Paragraph 8 hereof. If, within five (5) business days of delivering a copy of Seller’s Notice to Purchaser, Escrow Agent does not receive written notice from Purchaser or Purchaser’s counsel objecting to the release of the Deposit to Seller, then Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit by wire transfer to Seller pursuant to wire instructions provided

4.

5. If Escrow Agent is made a party to any judicial, nonjudicial or administrative action, hearing or process based on the acts of Purchaser and Seller and not on the malfeasance and/or negligence of Escrow Agent in performing its duties hereunder, then the losing party shall indemnify, save and hold harmless Escrow Agent from the expenses, costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Escrow Agent in responding to such action, hearing or process.

6. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that the duties of Escrow Agent are purely ministerial in nature, that Escrow Agent is acting as an accommodation to both Purchaser and Seller, and that Escrow Agent, in performing its duties, shall not be liable for: (i) any loss, cost or damage which Escrow Agent may incur as a result of serving as escrow agent hereunder, except for any loss, costs or damage arising out of its own willful misconduct or gross negligence; (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon any document, including any written instructions provided for in this Agreement, which Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine; and (iii) any loss or impairment of the Deposit deposited with a Federally insured financial institution, resulting from the failure, insolvency, or suspension of the depositary. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that they are aware that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) coverage applies only to a cumulative maximum amount of $250,000.00 for each individual depositor for all of depositor’s accounts at the same or related institution.
