Related to Agent Holdback Amount

  • Holdback Amount Escrow Agent shall hold back in escrow from Seller’s net proceeds at Closing an amount equal to Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00) (the “Holdback Amount”). The sole purpose for which the Holdback Amount may be applied is as to any amounts which Seller owes to Purchaser for post-Closing claims to the extent allowed and subject to any limitations set forth in this Agreement. For clarity, the Holdback Amount is intended as a source of payment, but not as a limitation of damages that may be claimed by Purchaser. Except as to any amounts claimed to be owed by Seller to Purchaser which amounts are specifically reflected in a lawsuit commenced against Seller within twelve (12) months after the Closing for damages based upon the post-Closing claim, Escrow Agent shall disburse the balance of the Holdback Amount to Seller immediately following the expiration of the twelve (12) month period. Prior to institution of any such lawsuit, Purchaser shall provide at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Seller, specifying the exact amount and nature of any such claim asserted by Purchaser against the Holdback Amount. Any lawsuit commenced against Seller must specifically set forth the exact amount which is claimed to be owed by Seller to Purchaser, and absent such specific amount being identified, Escrow Agent is authorized to release the entire Holdback Amount to Seller immediately following the expiration of the twelve month (12) month period post-Closing. Any portion of the Holdback Amount which Escrow Agent is entitled to retain pursuant to this Section 3.10 after the passage of the twelve (12) month period, shall continue to be held in escrow pending final and unappealable dismissal or judgment in the action or actions timely commenced by Purchaser or settled pursuant to a written agreement between Seller and Purchaser. If Purchaser obtains a final and unappealable judgment in any such action, Escrow Agent is directed to make a disbursement to Purchaser from the Holdback Amount retained in escrow in the amount of the judgment plus any interest, attorney’s fees, and costs to which it is entitled thereon upon presentation to Escrow Agent and Seller of the court order or other evidence of such final and unappealable judgment. Once all such actions are either finally or unappealably dismissed or a final and unappealable judgment is entered therein or settled pursuant to a written agreement between Seller and Purchaser, and any amount of damages due to Purchaser is paid, whether from the Holdback Amount or otherwise, Escrow Agent is directed to disburse to Seller any remaining balance of the Holdback Amount. The parties shall execute any additional escrow instructions not inconsistent with the foregoing reasonably required by Escrow Agent or either party relating to the Holdback Amount. Escrow Agent’s fees and costs for holding and disbursing the Holdback Amount shall be shared equally by Seller and Purchaser.

All interest accruing on the Escrow Amount shall be for the benefit of Seller. In the event Buyer makes a written claim or demand for indemnification under Section 15 hereof (an “Indemnification Claim”), and Seller does not dispute such Indemnification Claim, or is determined to be liable for and in respect of such Indemnification Claim by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the Escrow Agent promptly thereafter shall pay such Indemnification Claim in full to Buyer, all as more particularly provided in the Escrow Agreement. On the date which is six (6) months after the Closing Date (as defined in Section 1.06 hereof), fifty percent (50%) of the Escrow Amount then remaining in escrow under the Escrow Agreement and not then subject to an outstanding Indemnification Claim shall be paid by the Escrow Agent to Seller.
