Appointment of Escrow Agent The Company and the Initial Stockholders hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act in accordance with and subject to such terms.
Appointment of the Escrow Agent The Escrow Agent is hereby designated and appointed to act as escrow agent in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such designation and appointment.
Establishment of Escrow Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Buyer will deposit (and the Shareholders consent to the deposit of) (i) the cash portion of the Escrow Deposit with Escrow Agent, and Escrow Agent will deposit such funds in an interest bearing deposit account, to be held in trust by Escrow Agent for the benefit of Buyer and the Shareholders (the “Escrow Account”), and (ii) stock certificates (accompanied by ten (10) sets of appropriate stock powers executed by the Shareholders in blank with signature guaranteed by a national banking institution or New York Stock Exchange member firm) representing an aggregate of 333,333 shares of Buyer Common Stock registered in the name of the Shareholders (the “Escrowed Shares”) in such individual amounts as set forth on Attachment 1 hereto. Upon its receipt of the Escrow Deposit, Escrow Agent shall provide to Buyer and the Shareholders a written receipt therefor. Unless and until the Escrowed Shares are delivered to Buyer as its absolute property pursuant to this Agreement, the Shareholders shall be entitled to vote the Escrowed Shares and to all dividends thereon, which shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent, with all cash dividends being held as part of the Escrow Account and all stock dividends being held as part of the Escrowed Shares. Any common stock or other securities distributed with respect to the Escrowed Shares as a result of a dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent and held as part of the Escrowed Shares. The cash held in the Escrow Account, including any interest or earnings received in respect thereof, and the Escrowed Shares, less amounts of cash and Escrowed Shares distributed from time to time in accordance with Section 5 hereof, shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Escrow Fund.” The Escrow Agent shall execute and deliver to each Shareholder all Proxy Statements, form of proxies or other instruments which it receives in order to give effect to the foregoing voting rights. Escrow Agent agrees to administer the disposition of the Escrow Fund strictly in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. At the Buyer’s option, the Buyer may deposit (and the Shareholders consent to the deposit of) the Earnout Payment with the Escrow Agent (and Escrow Agent will further deposit the cash portion of such deposit in the Escrow Account and the stock portion of such deposit as part of the Escrowed Shares) to be held in trust by the Escrow Agent for the benefit of Buyer and the Shareholders, at any time (1) it maintains an obligation under the Merger Agreement to pay such Earnout Payment to the Shareholders, (2) the Buyer has previously made an Escrow Claim (as defined in Section 5(a)) prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in Section 7.3(a) of the Merger Agreement) and (3) the Claimed Amount (as hereinafter defined) of such claims is greater than the amount or value of the remaining Escrow Fund. To the extent the Claimed Amount equals or exceeds the amount of the Earnout Payment, the Buyer shall be permitted to deposit the entire Earnout Payment with the Escrow Agent. If, however, the Claimed Amount is less than the Earnout Payment, the Buyer shall be permitted to deposit the amount of the Earnout Payment equal to the Claimed Amount with the Escrow Agent and the difference shall be paid directly by the Buyer to the Shareholders as provided in the Merger Agreement. Buyer agrees to deliver an Escrow Claim (as hereinafter defined) to the Shareholders and Escrow Agent at the same time it delivers the Earnout Payment (or any portion thereof) to the Escrow Agent hereunder, to the extent that an Escrow Claim has not previously been submitted in connection therewith. Each such Escrow Claim shall contain all of the same information specified in Section 5(a) below. Upon its receipt of the Earnout Payment (or any portion thereof), Escrow Agent shall provide to Buyer and the Shareholders a written receipt therefor. Once deposited by the Escrow Agent in the Escrow Account and/or the Escrowed Shares, as the case may be, the Earnout Payment (or any portion thereof) shall be, and shall be treated as part of, the Escrow Fund for all purposes hereunder and this Agreement shall apply in the same manner and to the same extent as if the Earnout Payment were part of the original Escrow Deposit.
Establishment of Escrow Account Prior to the Issuer initiating the Offering, and prior to the receipt of the first Subscriber funds, Escrow Agent shall establish an account for the Issuer (the “Escrow Account”). All parties agree to maintain the Escrow Account and Escrow Amount (as defined below) in a manner that is compliant with applicable banking and securities regulations. Escrow Agent shall be the sole administrator of the Escrow Account.
Appointment of the Custodian The Trustee may, with the consent of the Master Servicer and the Company, or shall, at the direction of the Company and the Master Servicer, appoint custodians who are not Affiliates of the Company, the Master Servicer or any Seller to hold all or a portion of the Custodial Files as agent for the Trustee, by entering into a Custodial Agreement.

Upon the acceptance in writing of any appointment of Escrow Agent hereunder by a successor Escrow Agent, such successor Escrow Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Escrow Agent, and the retiring Escrow Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Escrow Agreement, but shall not be discharged from any liability for actions taken as Escrow Agent hereunder prior to such succession. After any retiring Escrow Agent's resignation or removal, the provisions of this Escrow Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Escrow Agent under this Escrow Agreement. The retiring Escrow Agent shall transmit all records pertaining to the Escrow Funds and shall pay all funds held by it in the Escrow Funds to the successor Escrow Agent, after making copies of such records as the retiring Escrow Agent deems advisable and after deduction and payment to the retiring Escrow Agent of all fees and expenses (including court costs and attorneys' fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be incurred by the retiring Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder.

The Trustee shall pay any and all fees and expenses of any Custodian in accordance with each Custodial Agreement (provided that if expenses of the kind that would be reimbursable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.05 if incurred by the Trustee are incurred by the Custodian, the Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement under Section 8.05 for such kind of expenses to the extent the Trustee has paid such expenses on behalf of the Custodian or for which the Trustee has reimbursed the Custodian).
