NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration, of the terms and provisions contained in the Contract and the mutual agreements and understandings contained in this Escrow, Inland, LCW and CT&T agree as follows: 1. All of the above recitals are incorporated herein by reference as if fully restated herein as this paragraph 1. 2. LCW hereby deposits with CT&T the amounts listed on Exhibit "A" for each of the Spaces on Exhibit "A", which amounts represent the rent and pass throughs for each such space from April 1, 2004 through March ___, 2005. Commencing on April 10, 2004 and on the tenth (10th) day of each month thereafter, Inland will report to CT&T the amount of any rent and pass throughs for the applicable month that Inland receives from each tenant that occupies one of the spaces listed on Exhibit "A" and on the date that CT&T receives such report, CT&T shall pay to Inland from this Escrow on a per space basis, the amount per space listed on Exhibit "A" less any amount that Inland reports it has received from a tenant occupying such space. Simultaneously with the payment to Inland each month, CT&T shall also pay to LCW from this Escrow on a per space basis, the amount that Inland reports it has received from a tenant occupying the space, less all unpaid costs and expenses of this Escrow which CT&T shall be entitled to pay itself from the funds to be paid to LCW. If after notifying CT&T of the receipt of any payments from the tenants of the spaces, Inland receives any rent and/or pass throughs for the applicable month, then after receiving payment from CT&T, Inland shall pay to LCW the lesser of the CT&T payment for the space or the payments received from the tenant. When a tenant occupies a space, is paying full rent and pass throughs for such space, and a final Certificate of Occupancy has been issued for the space, then LCW and Inland shall notify CT&T in writing ( "Full Payment Notice") of such fact. Upon receipt of the Full Payment Notice, CT&T shall pay to itself from the remaining funds held in this Escrow for the applicable space all unpaid costs and expenses of this Escrow and shall pay the balance of such funds for such space to LCW. CT&T shall be entitled to act upon a Full Payment Notice sent solely by LCW ten (10) days after receipt thereof provided that with such notice CT&T receives proof that the Full Payment Notice was delivered to and received by Inland and the Full Payment Notice is not contested in a writing by Inland delivered to CT&T before actual pay out by CT&T.
