The Company’s obligations under this Section 8 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the assignment or termination of this Agreement.
Escrow Agent Fees Escrow Administration Fee: $100.00 for each break letter after the first four $750.00 escrow account fee The fees quoted in this schedule apply to services ordinarily rendered in the administration of an Escrow Account and are subject to reasonable adjustment based on final review of documents, or when the Escrow Agent is called upon to undertake unusual duties or responsibilities, or as changes in law, procedures, or the cost of doing business demand. Services in addition to and not contemplated in this Escrow Agreement, including, but not limited to, document amendments and revisions, non-standard cash and/or investment transactions, calculations, notices and reports, and legal fees, will be billed as extraordinary expenses. Extraordinary fees are payable to the Escrow Agent for duties or responsibilities not expected to be incurred at the outset of the transaction, not routine or customary, and not incurred in the ordinary course of business. Payment of extraordinary fees is appropriate where particular inquiries, events or developments are unexpected, even if the possibility of such things could have been identified at the inception of the transaction. Unless otherwise indicated, the above fees relate to the establishment of one escrow account. Additional sub-accounts governed by the same Escrow Agreement may incur an additional charge. Transaction costs include charges for wire transfers, internal transfers and securities transactions.

(j) The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the contents of any writing of any third party contemplated herein as a means to resolve disputes and may rely without any liability upon the contents thereof. (k) In the event of any disagreement between the Buyer and the Seller resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the Escrowed Property and Interest, if any, or in the event that the Escrow Agent in good faith is in doubt as to what action it should take hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to retain the Escrowed Property and Interest, if any, until the Escrow Agent shall have received (i) a Final Determination (as defined in Section 3(b) and accompanied by the opinion of counsel referred to in Section 3(b)) directing delivery of the Escrowed Property and Interest, if any, or (ii) a written agreement executed by the Buyer and the Seller directing delivery of the Escrowed Property and Interest, if any, in which event the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrowed Property and Interest, if any, in accordance with such Final Determination or agreement.
