The fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be borne equally by the Sellers on the one hand and Buyer on the other hand. The Parties shall promptly execute and deliver such instructions and other documents and take all other action as may be required to cause the Escrow Agent to release the Escrow Funds to the Parties as follows:
(a) Except as set forth in Section 3.4(d), within one Business Day after the earlier of (i) the date upon which a binding settlement or compromise of the Subject Litigation has been reached, which settlement or compromise provides for an unconditional release of the Company or any successor in interest identified by Buyer to Sellers (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise) from any liability or obligation arising with respect to the Subject Litigation or (ii) the date upon which a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction has been entered to the effect that the Company or any such successor in interest is not subject to liability in respect of the Subject Litigation, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Sellers (to such account or accounts as shall be designated by the Seller Representative) an amount equal to $7,000,000, plus one half of all interest or earnings included in the Escrow Funds (or, if less, the total amount of remaining Escrow Funds not previously released in accordance with this Section 3.4) (the "Litigation Escrow Amount");
(b) Within one Business Day after the date upon which (A) Buyer, the Company or any such successor in interest to the Company pays or becomes unconditionally obligated to pay (whether as a result of any final judgment or arbitral award or as a result of any settlement to which the Sellers have granted their consent in accordance with Section 12.3) any Losses for which it is entitled to receive indemnification from Sellers under Section 12.1 arising from a Third Party Claim, including in respect of the Subject Litigation, or (B) Sellers become unconditionally obligated to pay to Buyer (whether by agreement of the Parties or as a result of an arbitral award entered in favor of Buyer) any Losses for which Buyer is entitled to receive indemnification from Sellers under Section 12.1 arising from a Claim other than a Third Party Claim, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Buyer (to such account or accounts as shall be designated by the Buyer) an amount equal to such Losses; and
(c) Except as set forth in Section 3.4(d), immediately upon the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Sellers (to such account or accounts as shall be designated by the Seller Representative) all remaining Escrow Funds, other than the Litigation Escrow Amount (which may only be released in accordance with the terms of Section 3.4(a) above).
(d) Notwithstanding Sections 3.4(a) and (c) above, the parties shall not be required to take action to cause the Escrow Agent to release Escrowed Funds to the Sellers in accordance with such provisions if Buyer shall have asserted good faith claims for indemnity under Section 12.1 which have not been finally resolved (the "Pending Claims"), to the extent that, after the release of such funds by the Escrow Agent as contemplated by Sections 3.4(a) or (c), the remaining Escrowed Funds held by the Escrow Agent would be insufficient to pay the amount necessary to cover Sellers' indemnification obligations in respect of such Pending Claims.
(e) If, in order to secure the release of any Escrowed Funds in accordance with this Section 3.4, it is necessary for Buyer on the one hand or Sellers on the other hand to commence arbitration proceedings in accordance with Section 14.9, the arbitrator may, if it determines that the other party or parties (the "Nonconsenting Party") failed or refused to take action to release all or part of the Escrowed Funds to the other party (the "Other Party") as required by this Agreement and did not have a good faith basis for such failure or refusal, order the Nonconsenting Party to pay to the Other Party an amount equal to the interest that would have accrued on the portion of the Escrowed Funds that would have been released but for the failure or refusal on the part of the Nonconsenting Party, at a rate at 10% per annum, for each day from and after the commencement of such failure or refusal until the date upon which applicable portion of the Escrowed Funds was actually released to the Other Party.
