FORM OF SUBSCRIPTION ESCROW AGREEMENT

 

THIS SUBSCRIPTION ESCROW AGREEMENT, dated as of ________, 2012 (this “Agreement”), is entered into among Allied Beacon Partners, Inc. (the “Dealer Manager”), United Realty Trust Incorporated (the “Company”) and UMB Bank, N.A., a national banking association, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company intends to raise cash funds from Investors (as defined below) pursuant to a public primary offering (the “Offering”) of not less than 200,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Shares”), for an aggregate offering amount of $2,090,000 (the “Minimum Amount”), and not more than 100,000,000 Common Shares, pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-11 of the Company (No. 333-178651) (as amended, the “Offering Document”).

 

WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent is willing to accept appointment as escrow agent only for the express duties set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

1.          Proceeds to be Escrowed. On or before the date the Offering Document is initially declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company shall establish an interest-bearing escrow account with the Escrow Agent to be invested in accordance with Section 7 titled “ESCROW ACCOUNT FOR THE BENEFIT OF INVESTORS IN COMMON SHARES OF UNITED REALTY TRUST INCORPORATED” (including such abbreviations as are required for the Escrow Agent’s systems) (the “Escrow Account”). All checks, wire transfers and other funds received from subscribers of Common Shares (“Investors”) in payment for the Common Shares (“Investor Funds”), along with all documents executed in connection with each subscription of Common Shares, will be delivered to the Dealer Manager or any soliciting dealer retained by the Dealer Manager (a “Soliciting Dealer”), and the Dealer Manager or such Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, will deliver all Investor Funds to the Escrow Agent within the time period set forth in the final paragraph of this Section 1, and such Investor Funds shall, upon receipt by the Escrow Agent, be retained in escrow by the Escrow Agent. Until the Termination Date (as defined in Section 4), the Company or its agents shall cause all checks received for payment for the Common Shares to be payable to the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 2 and delivered to the Escrow Agent for deposit in the Escrow Account.

 

The initial escrow period shall commence upon the effectiveness of this Agreement and shall continue until the earliest to occur of: (a) the close of business on ____________, 2013; (b) the date upon which the Escrow Agent receives confirmation from the Company that the Company has raised the Minimum Amount of at least $2,090,000 of gross offering proceeds (such date, the “Break Escrow Date”); (c) the date the Escrow Agent receives written notice from the Company that it is abandoning the sale of the Common Shares pursuant to the Offering; and (d) the date the Escrow Agent receives notice from the SEC or any other federal or state regulatory authority that a stop or similar order has been issued with respect to the Offering Document and that such stop or similar order has remained in effect for at least twenty (20) days.

 

 
 

 

The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to make any disbursement, investment or other use of Investor Funds until and unless it has good and collected funds. If an Investor sends a check to the Dealer Manager or a Soliciting Dealer that does not conform to the subscription instructions, the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, shall return the check directly to such Investor not later than the end of the next business day after the date on which the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, received such check. If any checks deposited in the Escrow Account are returned or prove uncollectible after the funds represented thereby have been released by the Escrow Agent, then the Company shall promptly reimburse the Escrow Agent for any and all costs reasonably incurred for such, upon request, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the returned checks to the Company. The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty or responsibility to enforce collection of any check delivered to it hereunder.

 

When the internal supervisory procedures of the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, are conducted at the site at which the subscription agreement and check were initially received by the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, from the subscriber, the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, shall transmit the check to the Escrow Agent by the end of the next business day following receipt of the check and subscription agreement. When, pursuant to the internal supervisory procedures of the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, the final internal supervisory procedures are conducted at a different location (the “Final Review Office”), the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, shall transmit the check and subscription agreement to the Final Review Office by the end of the next business day following receipt of the subscription agreement and check. The Final Review Office will, by the end of the next business day following its receipt of the subscription agreement and check, forward the check to the Escrow Agent.

 

2.           Investors. Investors will be instructed by the Dealer Manager or any Soliciting Dealer to remit the purchase price in the form of checks (“instruments of payment”) payable to the order of, or funds wired in favor of, “UMB BANK N.A., ESCROW AGENT FOR UNITED REALTY TRUST INCORPORATED”. Any checks made payable to a party other than the Escrow Agent shall be returned to the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer that submitted the check. If any subscription agreement for the purchase of Common Shares solicited by a Soliciting Dealer is rejected by the Dealer Manager or the Company, then the subscription agreement and the related check for the purchase of Common Shares will be returned to the rejected subscriber within ten (10) business days from the date of rejection. If an Investor sends a check to the Dealer Manager or any Soliciting Dealer that does not conform to the subscription instructions, the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, shall return the check directly to such Investor not later than the end of the next business day after the date on which the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer, as applicable, received such check.

 

All Investor Funds deposited in the Escrow Account shall not be subject to any liens or charges by the Company or the Escrow Agent, or judgments or creditors’ claims against the Company, until and unless released to the Company as hereinafter provided. The Company understands and agrees that the Company shall not be entitled to any Investor Funds on deposit in the Escrow Account and no such funds shall become the property of the Company or any other entity except as released to the Company pursuant to Section 3.

The Escrow Agent will not use the information provided to it by the Company for any purpose other than to fulfill its obligations as Escrow Agent hereunder. The Escrow Agent will treat all Investor information as confidential.

 

3.           Disbursement of Funds.

 

(a) Break Escrow – Initial Closing. The Escrow Agent agrees that the Minimum Amount of $2,090,000 shall not be released from the Escrow Account to the Company until and unless the Escrow Agent receives joint written instructions, in a form substantially similar to the Form of Escrow Release Notice (the “Escrow Release Notice”) attached hereto as Exhibit C, to release the funds, from (i) the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President or Chief Financial Officer, and (ii) the Dealer Manager’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer or Chief Compliance Officer.

 

If the Minimum Amount of $2,090,000 has not been sold on or prior to the Termination Date, the Company shall notify the Escrow Agent in writing of such. If the Company notifies the Escrow Agent in writing that the Minimum Amount has not been sold prior to the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall, promptly following the Termination Date, but in no event more than 30 days after the Termination Date, refund to each Investor by check, funds deposited in the Escrow Account, including interest or any other income earned thereon, or shall return the instruments of payment delivered to Escrow Agent if such instruments have not been processed for collection prior to such time, directly to each Investor at the address previously provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Escrow Agent shall not be required to remit any payments until funds represented by such payments have been collected by the Escrow Agent. Additionally, at the end of the third business day following the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company of the amount of the Investor Funds received. Further, once the Offering has closed, the Company shall notify the Escrow Agent of the same in writing.

 

If the Escrow Agent receives written notice from the Company that the Company intends to reject an Investor’s subscription, the Escrow Agent shall pay to the applicable Investor, within a reasonable time not to exceed ten (10) business days after receiving notice of the rejection, by first class United States mail at the address provided on such Investor’s subscription agreement, or at such other address as shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent by the Investor in writing, all collected sums paid by the Investor for Common Shares and received by the Escrow Agent (without interest thereon).

 

(b) Post Escrow Break Period. From and after the Break Escrow Date until the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent, upon receipt of Escrow Release Notices, shall periodically transfer any portion of the Investor Funds to the Company or such other parties as set forth in the applicable Escrow Release Notice. The Escrow Agent shall effect such transfer by the close of business on the business day the Escrow Agent receives the applicable Escrow Release Notice; provided, however, if the Escrow Agent receives the applicable Escrow Release Notice after 2:00 p.m. Central Time, then the Escrow Agent shall effect such transfer by the close of business on the next succeeding business day

4.           Term of Escrow. The “Termination Date” shall be the earliest of: (a) the close of business on ____________, 2013; (b) the date all funds held in the Escrow Account are distributed to the Company or to Investors pursuant to Section 3 and the Company has informed the Escrow Agent in writing to close the Escrow Account; (c) the date the Escrow Agent receives written notice from the Company that it is abandoning the sale of the Common Shares pursuant to the Offering; and (d) the date the Escrow Agent receives notice from the SEC or any other federal or state regulatory authority that a stop or similar order has been issued with respect to the Offering Document and that such stop or similar order has remained in effect for at least twenty (20) days. After the Termination Date, the Company and its agents shall not deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall not accept, any additional amounts representing payments by prospective Investors.

 

5.           Duty and Liability of the Escrow Agent. The sole duty of the Escrow Agent shall be to receive Investor Funds and subscription agreements and hold them subject to release, in accordance herewith, and the Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to determine whether the Company, the Dealer Manager or any Soliciting Dealer is complying with requirements of this Agreement, the Offering or applicable securities or other laws in tendering the Investor Funds to the Escrow Agent. No other agreement entered into between the parties, or any of them, shall be considered as adopted or binding, in whole or in part, upon the Escrow Agent, notwithstanding that any such other agreement may be referred to herein or deposited with the Escrow Agent or that the Escrow Agent may have knowledge thereof, including specifically but without limitation the Offering Document or any other document related to the Offering (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto), and the Escrow Agent’s rights and responsibilities shall be governed solely by this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for or be required to enforce any of the terms or conditions of the Offering Document or any other document related to the Offering (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto) or other agreement between the Company and any other party. The Escrow Agent may conclusively rely upon and shall be protected in acting upon any statement, certificate, notice, request, consent, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty or liability to verify any such statement, certificate, notice, request, consent, order or other document, and its sole responsibility shall be to act only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, the Company and the Dealer Manager shall each deliver to the Escrow Agent an authorized signers form in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit A-1 to this Agreement, as applicable. The Escrow Agent shall be under no obligation to institute or defend any action, suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement unless first indemnified to its satisfaction. The Escrow Agent may consult counsel of its own choice with respect to any question arising under this Agreement and the Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted in good faith upon advice of such counsel. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct was the primary cause of loss. The Escrow Agent is acting solely as escrow agent hereunder and owes no duties, covenants or obligations, fiduciary or otherwise, to any other person by reason of this Agreement, except as otherwise stated herein, and no implied duties, covenants or obligations, fiduciary or otherwise, shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent. If any disagreement between any of the parties to this Agreement, or between any of them and any other person, including any Investor, resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the matters covered by this Agreement, or if the Escrow Agent is in doubt as to what action it should take hereunder, the Escrow Agent may, at its option, refuse to comply with any claims or demands on it, or refuse to take any other action hereunder, so long as such disagreement continues or such doubt exists, and in any such event, the Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way or to any person for its failure or refusal to act, and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to continue so to refrain from acting until (a) the rights of all interested parties shall have been fully and finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (b) all differences shall have been adjudged and all doubt resolved by agreement among all of the interested persons, and the Escrow Agent shall have been notified thereof in writing signed by all such persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Escrow Agent may in its discretion obey the order, judgment, decree or levy of any court, whether with or without jurisdiction, and the Escrow Agent is hereby authorized in its sole discretion to comply with and obey any such orders, judgments, decrees or levies. If any controversy should arise with respect to this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall have the right, at its option, to institute an interpleader action in any court of competent jurisdiction to determine the rights of the parties. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ESCROW AGENT BE LIABLE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), EVEN IF THE ESCROW AGENT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION. The parties hereto agree that the Escrow Agent has no role in the preparation of the Offering Documents (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto) and makes no representations or warranties with respect to the information contained therein or omitted therefrom. The Escrow Agent shall have no obligation, duty or liability with respect to compliance with any federal or state securities, disclosure or tax laws concerning the Offering Documents or any other document related to the Offering (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto) or the issuance, offering or sale of the Common Shares. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty or obligation to monitor the application and use of the Investor Funds once transferred to the Company, that being the sole obligation and responsibility of the Company.

6.           Escrow Agent’s Fee. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to compensation for its services as stated in the fee schedule attached hereto as Exhibit B, which compensation shall be paid by the Company. The fee agreed upon for the services rendered hereunder is intended as full compensation for the Escrow Agent’s services as contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that if (a) the conditions for the disbursement of funds under this Agreement are not fulfilled, (b) the Escrow Agent renders any material service not contemplated in this Agreement, (c) there is any assignment of interest in the subject matter of this Agreement, (d) there is any material modification hereof, (e) any material controversy arises hereunder, or (f) the Escrow Agent is made a party to any litigation pertaining to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, then the Escrow Agent shall be reasonably compensated for such extraordinary services and reimbursed for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, occasioned by any delay, controversy, litigation or event, and the same shall be recoverable from the Company. The Company’s obligations under this Section 6 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the assignment or termination of this Agreement.

 

7.           Investment of Investor Funds. Investor Funds shall be deposited in the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1. Subject to compliance with Rule 15c2-4 of the Exchange Act, the Escrow Agent may invest in bank accounts, including saving accounts and bank money market accounts that enable the Escrow Agent to promptly and directly transmit Investor Funds to the person entitled thereto. The Escrow Agent may also invest in short-term certificates of deposit issued by a bank or short-term securities issues or guaranteed by the United States government. Interest and any other income resulting from the investment of the funds in the Escrow Account shall be retained by the Escrow Agent and distributed according to this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall provide to the Company monthly statements (or more frequently as reasonably requested by the Company) on the account balance in the Escrow Account and the activity in such accounts since the last report.
