Money for Payments To Be Held in Trust As provided in Sections 5.04 and 8.02, all payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Collection Account and the Note Distribution Account pursuant to Section 8.02(c) shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by another Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the Collection Account and the Note Distribution Account for payments of Notes shall be paid over to the Issuer except as provided in this Section. On or before the Business Day immediately preceding each Payment Date and Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Collection Account (to be transferred to the Note Distribution Account on the related Payment Date) an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due under the Notes, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless the Paying Agent is the Indenture Trustee) shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee in writing of its action or failure so to act. The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee (and if the Indenture Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:
(i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided;
(ii) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;
(iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;
(iv) immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; and
(v) comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith. The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense and written direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to or for the account of the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and written direction of the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in monies due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each such Holder).
Disbursements from the Escrow Account a. At such time as Escrow Agent has collected and deposited instruments of payment in the total amount of the Advance and has received such Common Stock via D.W.A.C from the Company which are to be issued to the Investor pursuant to the Standby Equity Distribution Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company and the Investor. The Escrow Agent will continue to hold such funds until the Investor and Company execute and deliver a Joint Written Direction directing the Escrow Agent to disburse the Escrow Funds pursuant to Joint Written Direction at which time the Escrow Agent shall wire the Escrow Funds to the Company. In disbursing such funds, Escrow Agent is authorized to rely upon such Joint Written Direction from Company and may accept any signatory from the Company listed on the signature page to this Agreement and any signature from the Investor that Escrow Agent already has on file. Simultaneous with delivery of the executed Joint Written Direction to the Escrow Agent the Investor and Company shall execute and deliver a Common Stock Joint Written Direction to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to release via D.W.A.C to the Investor the shares of the Company's Common Stock. In releasing such shares of Common Stock the Escrow Agent is authorized to rely upon such Common Stock Joint Written Direction from Company and may accept any signatory from the Company listed on the signature page to this Agreement and any signature from the Escrow Agent has on file. In the event the Escrow Agent does not receive the amount of the Advance from the Investor or the shares of Common Stock to be purchased by the Investor from the Company, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company and the Investor.

Payments by Agent to the Lenders All payments to be made by Agent to the Lenders (or Bank Product Providers) shall be made by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, fees, or interest of the Obligations.
Payments by Agent to Lenders All payments to be made by the Agent to the applicable Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer or internal transfer of immediately available funds to each such Lender pursuant to wire transfer instructions delivered in writing to the Agent on or prior to the Agreement Date (or if such Lender is an Assignee, on the applicable Assignment and Acceptance), or pursuant to such other wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to the Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, the Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, interest or fees on the Loans or otherwise. Unless the Agent receives notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Agent may assume that the Borrower have made such payment in full to the Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each such Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower has not made such payment in full to the Agent, each applicable Lender shall repay to the Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, of even date herewith between VBYR and Xxxxxx (the “Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement”), the Agreement and Plan of Merger, of even date herewith between CSI and VBYR (the “Merger Agreement”), and any and all documents related thereto, with this Agreement being an exhibit to such Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Documents,” and all Documents other than this Agreement, the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and the Merger Agreement being collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents.”)
1.2 Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto, the parties to the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and the Merger Agreement shall execute and deliver such agreements, and this Agreement, the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and the Merger Agreement shall not be escrowed under the terms of this Agreement. Prior to the Closing Date, CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx shall deliver the executed Transaction Documents to the Escrow Agent and Xxxxxx shall deposit the Funds with the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall thereafter hold the Funds and the Transaction Documents until the earlier of: (i) the date on which CSI, Xxxxxx and VBYR have consummated the Contemplated Transactions; (ii) the termination of any of the Contemplated Transactions prior to consummation; or (iii) February 28, 2005. In the event of the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly release the Funds by wire transfer or check to the Authorized Recipients listed on Exhibit “A” attached hereto in the amounts designated for each of such Authorized Recipients for use by CSI and VBYR to repay the Dividend Note of CSI to the Original Shareholders, to repay the Merger Note portion of the Merger Consideration to be paid by VBYR to the Original Shareholders and to pay certain fees and commissions in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, and the Escrow Agent shall also deliver the Transaction Documents to each of CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx. In the event the closing of the Contemplated Transactions does not occur before February 28, 2005 or the Contemplated Transactions are terminated by CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx on or prior to such date, then the Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Funds to Xxxxxx by wire transfer according to instructions received in writing by the Escrow Agent from Xxxxxx, and the Escrow Agent shall destroy the Transaction Documents.
1.3 In connection with the transactions described in Section 1.2, (i) the Escrow Agent shall release the Funds to the Authorized Recipients and Transaction Documents to CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx upon receipt of a joint written notice from CSI, Xxxxxx and VBYR that all the Contemplated Transactions have been consummated and (ii) the Escrow Agent shall return the Funds to Xxxxxx and destroy the Transaction Documents either (a) upon the receipt of a joint written notice from CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx that the Contemplated Transactions have been terminated or (b) on March 1, 2005, if the Escrow Agent has not received the notice described in Section 1.3(i) above or the Escrow Agent receives notice of termination of the Contemplated Transactions solely from Xxxxxx.
1.4 Upon the completion by the Escrow Agent of its obligations under Section 1.2, this Agreement shall terminate and the Escrow Agent shall have no further liability hereunder.
1.5 This Agreement may be altered or amended only with the written consent of all of the parties hereto. In the event CSI, VBYR or Xxxxxx attempts to change this Agreement in a manner, which, in the Escrow Agent’s discretion, shall be undesirable, the Escrow Agent may resign as Escrow Agent by notifying CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx in writing. In the case of the Escrow Agent’s resignation, the only duty of the Escrow Agent, until receipt of a joint written notice from CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx (the “Transfer Instructions”) that a successor escrow agent has been appointed, shall be to hold and preserve the Funds and the Transaction Documents that are in its possession. Upon receipt by the Escrow Agent of said notice from CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx of the appointment of a successor escrow agent, the name of a successor escrow account and a direction to transfer the Funds to such successor escrow account to be thereafter held by such successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall promptly thereafter transfer the Funds and deliver the Transaction Documents to said successor escrow agent. Immediately after said transfer of the Funds and delivery of the Transaction Documents to said successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall furnish CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx with proof of such transfer. The Escrow Agent is authorized to disregard any notices, requests, instructions or demands received by it from CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx after notice of resignation has been given, except only for the Transfer Instructions.
1.6 The Escrow Agent shall be reimbursed by CSI for any reasonable expenses incurred in the event there is a conflict between the parties and the Escrow Agent shall deem it necessary to retain counsel, upon whose advice the Escrow Agent may rely. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by the Escrow Agent in good faith and in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable or responsible except for the Escrow Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Escrow Agent has made no representations or warranties to CSI, VBYR or Xxxxxx in connection with this transaction. The Escrow Agent has no liability hereunder to either party other than to hold the Funds received from Xxxxxx and to deliver the Funds under the terms hereof. CSI, VBYR and Xxxxxx each agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from and with respect to any suits, claims, actions or liabilities arising in any way out of the Contemplated Transactions, including the obligation to defend any legal action brought which in any way arises out of or is related to this Agreement, the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, the Merger Agreement, and/or the other Documents. The parties each and all acknowledge and recognize that the Escrow Agent has also served and shall continue to serve as the legal counsel to CSI and the parties each and all waive any claim of any conflict of interest as a result thereof.
1.7 The Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth herein and may rely and shall be protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall not be personally liable for any act the Escrow Agent may do or omit to do hereunder as the Escrow Agent while acting in good faith, and any act done or omitted by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the advice of the Escrow Agent’s attorneys-at-law shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith.
1.8 The Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized to disregard any and all warnings or orders given by any of the parties hereto or by any other person or corporation, excepting only the written notices described in Section 1.3 and the Transfer Instructions and/or orders or process of courts of law and is hereby expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any court. In case the Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such order, judgment or decree, including but not limited to the written notices described in Section 1.3 and the Transfer Instructions, then the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person, firm or corporation by reason of such decree or orders being subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have been entered without jurisdiction.
1.9 The Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authorities or rights of the parties executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver this Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for hereunder.
1.10 If the Escrow Agent reasonably requires other or further documents in connection with this Agreement, the necessary parties hereto shall join in furnishing such documents.
1.11 It is understood and agreed that should any dispute arise with respect to the delivery and/or ownership or right of possession of the Funds and/or the Transaction Documents held by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent is authorized and directed in the Escrow Agent’s sole discretion (a) to retain the Funds and the Transaction Documents in the Escrow Agent’s possession, without liability to anyone, until such disputes shall have been settled either by mutual written agreement of the parties concerned or by a final order, decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction after the time for appeal has expired and no appeal has been perfected, but the Escrow Agent shall be under no duty whatsoever to institute or defend any such proceedings or (b) to deliver the Funds and the Transaction Documents held by the Escrow Agent hereunder to a state or federal court having competent subject matter jurisdiction and located in the State of South Carolina in accordance with the applicable procedure therefor.
