5. Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein, which shall be deemed purely ministerial in nature, and no duties shall be implied. The Escrow Agent shall neither be responsible for, nor chargeable with, knowledge of, nor have any requirements to comply with, the terms and conditions of any other agreement, instrument or document between the Parties, in connection herewith, if any (including, without limitation, the Purchase Agreement), nor shall the Escrow Agent be required to determine if any Person has complied with any such agreements, nor shall any additional obligations of the Escrow Agent be inferred from the terms of such agreements, even though reference thereto may be made in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the terms of any other agreement between the Parties, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will control the actions of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent may rely upon and shall not be liable for acting or refraining from acting upon a Joint Release Instruction furnished to it hereunder and believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed and presented by the Authorized Representatives, except in the event of the Escrow Agent’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Parties shall deliver to the Escrow Agent authorized signers’ forms in the form of Exhibit A-1 and Exhibit A-2 attached hereto. The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content of any such document, notice, instruction or request. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to solicit any payments which may be due pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement or this Agreement. In the event that the Escrow Agent, acting reasonably, shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder or shall receive instructions, claims or demands from any Party hereto which, in its opinion, conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, it shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action and its sole obligation shall be to keep safely all property held in escrow until it shall be directed otherwise in a Joint Release Instruction. The Escrow Agent may interplead all of the assets held hereunder into a court of competent jurisdiction or may seek a declaratory judgment with respect to certain circumstances, and thereafter be fully relieved from any and all liability or obligation with respect to such interpleaded assets or any action or non-action based on such declaratory judgment. The Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel of its selection in the event of any dispute or question as to the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof or its duties hereunder. The Escrow Agent will not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith except to the extent that the Escrow Agent’s fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence was the cause of any loss to either Party. To the extent practicable, the Parties agree to pursue any redress or recourse in connection with any dispute (other than with respect to a dispute involving the Escrow Agent) without making the Escrow Agent a party to the same. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for any special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such losses or damages and regardless of the form of action, other than any such losses or damages which result from the Escrow Agent’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

6. Resignation and Removal of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent (a) may resign and be discharged from its duties or obligations hereunder by giving thirty (30) calendar days advance notice in writing of such resignation to Buyers and Sellers specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect or (b) may be removed, with or without cause, by the Parties acting jointly at any time by providing written notice executed by an Authorized Representative of both Parties to the Escrow Agent. Any corporation or association into which the Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or association to which all or substantially all of the escrow business of the Escrow Agent’s line of business may be transferred, shall be the Escrow Agent under this Agreement without further act. The Escrow

 

4


Agent’s sole responsibility after such thirty (30) calendar day notice period expires or after receipt of written notice of removal shall be to hold and safeguard the Escrow Funds (without any obligation to reinvest the same) and to deliver the same (i) to a substitute or successor escrow agent pursuant to a joint written designation from the Parties or (ii) as set forth in a Joint Release Instruction, at which time of delivery Escrow Agent’s obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate. In the event the Escrow Agent resigns, if the Parties have failed to appoint a successor escrow agent prior to the expiration of thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of the notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of such a successor escrow agent or for other appropriate relief, and any such resulting appointment shall be binding upon all of the Parties hereto.

7. Fees and Expenses. All fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent are described in Schedule 1 attached hereto and shall be paid fifty percent by Sellers and fifty percent by Buyers. The fees agreed upon for the services to be rendered hereunder are intended as full compensation for the Escrow Agent services as contemplated by this Agreement.

8. Indemnity. Each Party shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Escrow Agent and its affiliates and their respective successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents and employees (the “Escrow Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities, penalties, judgments, settlements, actions, suits, proceedings, litigation, investigations, costs or expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of one outside counsel and experts and their staffs and all expenses for document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively “Escrow Agent Losses”) arising out of or in connection with (a) the Escrow Agent’s execution and performance of this Agreement, tax reporting or withholding, the enforcement of any rights or remedies under or in connection with this Agreement, or as may arise by reason of any act, omission or error of the Escrow Indemnitee, except to the extent that such Escrow Agent Losses have been caused by the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent or any such Escrow Indemnitee, or (b) its following any written instructions or other directions from the Parties. It is understood and agreed that the Escrow Agent does not have a contractual right of set off or a contractual security interest under the Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver of any statutory or common law rights to which the Escrow Agent may otherwise be entitled with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parties agree, solely as between themselves, that any obligation for indemnification under this Section 8 (or for reasonable fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent described in Section 7) shall be borne by the party or parties determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be responsible for causing the loss, damage, liability, cost or expense against which the Escrow Agent is entitled to indemnification or, if no such determination is made, then one-half by Buyers and one-half by Sellers. The provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the termination of this Agreement.

9. Tax Matters.

(a) The Parties agree that, for U.S. federal and applicable state income tax purposes, Sellers shall be treated as the owners of the Escrow Funds. The Escrow Agent shall report the Escrow Earnings on Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form 1099 showing the Escrow Agent as payor and each applicable Seller as payee as of the end of each calendar year and, to the extent required by the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, whether or not such Escrow Earnings were disbursed during such calendar year.

 

5


(b) Prior to the date hereof, the Parties shall provide the Escrow Agent with certified tax identification numbers by furnishing appropriate IRS Forms W-9 or W-8 (as applicable) and such other forms and documents that the Escrow Agent may reasonably request.

(c) The Escrow Agent shall be responsible only for income reporting to the IRS with respect to income earned on the Escrow Funds. The Escrow Agent shall withhold any taxes required to be withheld by applicable law, including but not limited to required withholding in the absence of proper tax documentation, and shall remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities. Other than in connection with any required withholding, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the preparation and/or filing of any tax return with respect to the Escrow Funds or any income earned on the Escrow Funds.

(d) Should the Escrow Agent be engaged to perform annual tax information reporting for principal payments, all such reporting will be completed at the written direction of the Parties acting jointly. The Escrow Agent will, in accordance with such written instructions, file, print and mail information returns to Persons or entities receiving disbursements pursuant to the Agreement and transmit withholding amounts as directed by the Parties in writing.

(e) The Escrow Agent, its affiliates, and its employees are not in the business of providing tax or legal advice to any taxpayer outside of Citigroup, Inc. and its affiliates. This Agreement and any amendments or attachments are not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used or relied upon, by any such taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding tax penalties. Any such taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

10. Covenant of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent hereby agrees and covenants with the Parties that it shall perform all of its obligations under this Agreement and shall not deliver custody or possession of any of the Escrow Funds to anyone except pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement or as otherwise required by law.

11. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications required under this Agreement shall be in writing, in English, and shall be deemed to have been duly given to the intended recipient if delivered to such Party’s Authorized Representative: (i) personally, (ii) on the day of transmission if sent by electronic mail (“e-mail”) with a PDF attachment executed by an authorized signor of the Party or Parties to the e-mail address given below, and written confirmation of receipt is obtained promptly after completion of the transmission, (iii) by overnight delivery with a reputable national overnight delivery service, or (iv) by mail or by certified mail, return receipt requested, and postage prepaid. If any notice is mailed, it shall be deemed given three (3) Business Days after the date such notice is deposited in the mail. If notice is given to a Party, it shall be given at the address for such Party set forth below. It shall be the responsibility of the Parties to notify the Escrow Agent and the other Party in writing of any name or address changes.

In the event that the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, shall determine that an emergency exists, the Escrow Agent may use such other means of communication as the Escrow Agent deems appropriate.

12. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the first to occur of (a) the distribution of all of the amounts in the Escrow Funds in accordance with this Agreement or (b) delivery to the Escrow Agent of a written notice of termination executed jointly by an Authorized Representative of both Parties after which this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect except that the provisions of Section 8 shall survive termination.

13. Miscellaneous. The provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered, amended or supplemented, in whole or in part, only by a writing signed by all of the parties hereto. Except as otherwise provided for herein, neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder may be assigned in whole or in part by any party hereto, without the prior consent of the other parties hereto. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York. Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection on the grounds of venue, forum non-conveniens or any similar grounds and irrevocably consents to service of process by mail or in any other manner permitted by applicable law and consents to the jurisdiction of the courts located in the State of New York. The parties hereto hereby waive any right to a trial by jury with respect to any lawsuit or judicial proceeding arising or relating to this Agreement.

The Parties represent, warrant and covenant that each document, notice, instruction or request provided by such Party to Escrow Agent shall comply with applicable laws and regulations. Where, however, the conflicting provisions of any such applicable law may be waived, they are hereby irrevocably waived by the parties hereto to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the end that this Agreement shall be enforced as written. Except as expressly provided in Section 8, nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Escrow Agent and the Parties any legal or equitable right, remedy, interest or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any funds escrowed hereunder. As between the Parties, (a) nothing in this Agreement waives or modifies any right or obligation under the Purchase Agreement, and (b) in the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Agreement shall control.

To comply with Federal law including USA Patriot Act requirements, assignees shall provide to the Escrow Agent the appropriate IRS Form W-9 or W-8 (as applicable) and such other forms and documentation that the Escrow Agent may request to verify identification and authorization to act. Any transfer or assignment of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder in violation of the terms hereof shall be void and of no force or effect.
