Uninvested funds held hereunder shall not earn or accrue interest. (b) This Agreement expressly sets forth all the duties of the Escrow Agent with respect to any and all matters pertinent hereto. No implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by the provisions of any agreement among the other parties hereto except this Agreement. (c) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct and, except with respect to claims based upon such gross negligence or willful misconduct that are successfully asserted against the Escrow Agent, the Buyer and the Seller shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent (and any successor escrow agent) from and against one-half of any and all losses, liabilities, claims, actions, damages, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, arising out of and in connection with this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Escrow Agent shall in no event be liable in connection with its investment or reinvestment of any cash held by it hereunder in good faith, in accordance with the terms hereof, including without limitation, any liability for any delays (not resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct) in the investment or reinvestment of the Escrowed Property or any loss of interest incident to any such delays. This Section 5(c) shall survive notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or the resignation of the Escrow Agent. (d) The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely in good faith upon any order, judgment, certification, demand, notice, instrument or other writing delivered to it hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof without being required to determine the authenticity or the correctness of any fact stated therein or the propriety or validity of the service thereof.
