Concerning the Escrow Agent 6.1. The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent.
6.2. The Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any writing or instrument or signature which it, in good faith, believes to be genuine, may assume the validity and accuracy of any statement or assertion contained in such a writing or instrument, and may assume that any person purporting to give any writing, notice, advice or instructions in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any manner for the sufficiency or correctness as to form, manner, and execution, or validity of any instrument deposited in this escrow, nor as to the identity, authority, or right of any person executing the same; and its duties hereunder shall be limited to the safekeeping of such certificates, monies, instruments, or other document received by it as such escrow holder, and for the disposition of the same in accordance with the written instruments accepted by it in the escrow.
6.3. Pledgee and the Pledgor hereby agree, to defend and indemnify the Escrow Agent and hold it harmless from any and all claims, liabilities, losses, actions, suits, or proceedings at law or in equity, or any other expenses, fees, or charges of any character or nature which it may incur or with which it may be threatened by reason of its acting as Escrow Agent under this Agreement; and in connection therewith, to indemnify the Escrow Agent against any and all expenses, including attorneys' fees and costs of defending any action, suit, or proceeding or resisting any claim (and any costs incurred by the Escrow Agent pursuant to Sections 6.4 or 6.5 hereof). The Escrow Agent shall be vested with a lien on all property deposited hereunder, for indemnification of attorneys' fees and court costs regarding any suit, proceeding or otherwise, or any other expenses, fees, or charges of any character or nature, which may be incurred by the Escrow Agent by reason of disputes arising between the makers of this escrow as to the correct interpretation of this Agreement and instructions given to the Escrow Agent hereunder, or otherwise, with the right of the Escrow Agent, regardless of the instructions aforesaid, to hold said property until and unless said additional expenses, fees, and charges shall be fully paid. Any fees and costs charged by the Escrow Agent for serving hereunder shall be paid by the Pledgor.
6.4. If any of the parties shall be in disagreement about the interpretation of this Agreement, or about the rights and obligations, or the propriety of any action contemplated by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent may, at its sole discretion deposit the Pledged Materials with the Clerk of the United States District Court of New Jersey, sitting in Newark, New Jersey, and, upon notifying all parties concerned of such action, all liability on the part of the Escrow Agent shall fully cease and terminate. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified by the Pledgor, the Company and Pledgee for all costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees in connection with the aforesaid proceeding, and shall be fully protected in suspending all or a part of its activities under this Agreement until a final decision or other settlement in the proceeding is received.
6.5. The Escrow Agent may consult with counsel of its own choice (and the costs of such counsel shall be paid by the Pledgor and Pledgee) and shall have full and complete authorization and protection for any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such counsel. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any mistakes of fact or error of judgment, or for any actions or omissions of any kind, unless caused by its willful misconduct or gross negligence.
6.6. The Escrow Agent may resign upon ten (10) days' written notice to the parties in this Agreement. If a successor Escrow Agent is not appointed within this ten (10) day period, the Escrow Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to name a successor.
The Escrow Agent In exercising the rights, duties and obligations prescribed or confirmed by this Agreement, the Escrow Agent will act honestly and in good faith and will exercise that degree of care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. The Purchaser and the Company jointly and severally covenant and agree from time to time and at all times hereafter well and truly to save, defend and keep harmless and fully indemnify the Escrow Agent, its successors, and assigns, from and against all loss, costs, charges, suits, demands, claims, damages and expenses which the Escrow Agent, its successors or assigns may at any time or times hereafter bear, sustain, suffer or be put unto for or by reason or on account of its acting pursuant to this Agreement or anything in any manner relating thereto or by reason of the Escrow Agent's compliance in good faith with the terms hereof. In case proceedings should hereafter be taken in any court respecting the Subscription Proceeds, the Escrow Agent will not be obliged to defend any such action or submit its rights to the court until it has been indemnified by other good and sufficient security in addition to the indemnity given in Clause 4.2 against its costs of such proceedings. The Escrow Agent will have no responsibility in respect of loss of the Subscription Proceeds except the duty to exercise such care in the safekeeping thereof as it would exercise if the Subscription Proceeds belonged to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent may act on the advice of counsel but will not be responsible for acting or failing to act on the advice of counsel. The Escrow Agent will not be bound in any way by any contract between the parties hereto whether or not it has notice thereof or of its terms and conditions and the only duty, liability and responsibility of the Escrow Agent will be to hold the Subscription Proceeds as herein directed and to pay and deliver the same to such persons and other such conditions as are herein set forth. The Escrow Agent will not be required to pass upon the sufficiency of any of the Subscription Proceeds or to ascertain whether or not the person or persons who have executed, signed or otherwise issued or authenticated the said documents have authority to so execute, sign or authorize, issue or authenticate the said documents or any of them, or that they are the same persons named therein or otherwise to pass upon any requirement of such instruments that may be essential of their validity, but it shall be sufficient for all purposes under this Agreement insofar as the Escrow Agent is concerned that the said documents are deposited with it as herein specified by the parties executing this Agreement with the Escrow Agent. In no event will the Escrow Agent be deemed to have assumed any liability or responsibility for the sufficiency, form and manner of making any notice or demand provided for under this Agreement or of the identity of the persons executing the same, but it shall be sufficient if any writing purporting to be such a notice, demand or protest is served upon the Escrow Agent in any manner sufficient to bring it to its attention. In the event that the Subscription Proceeds are attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order, or if the delivery of such property is stayed or enjoined by any court order or if any court order, judgment or decree is made or entered affecting such property or affecting any act by the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, obey and comply with all writs, orders, judgments or decrees so entered or issued, whether with or without jurisdiction, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary. If the Escrow Agent obeys and complies with any such writs, order, judgment or decrees it will not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person, firm or corporation by reason of such compliance, notwithstanding that such writs, orders, judgments or decrees may be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated. Except as herein otherwise provided, the Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to disregard in its sole discretion any and all notices and warnings which may be given to it by any of the parties hereto or by any other person, firm, association or corporation. It will, however, obey the order, judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, and it is hereby authorized to comply with and obey such orders, judgements or decrees and in case of such compliance, it shall not be liable by reason thereof to any of the parties hereto or to any other person, firm, association or corporation, even if thereafter any such order, judgment or decree may be reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated. If the Escrow Agent receives any written instructions contrary to the instructions contained in this Agreement, the Escrow Agent may continue to hold the Subscription Proceeds until the lawful determination of the issue between the parties hereto. The Escrow Agent may resign as Escrow Agent by giving not less then ten (10) days' written notice thereof to each of the Purchaser or the Company. The Purchaser and the Company may terminate the Escrow Agent by giving to the Escrow Agent a notice of termination executed by each of them not less than ten (10) days prior to the proposed date of termination. The resignation or termination of the Escrow Agent will be effective and the Escrow Agent will cease to be bound by this Agreement on the date that is ten (10) days after the date of receipt of the termination notice given hereunder or on such other date as the Escrow Agent, the Purchaser and the Company may agree upon. All indemnities granted to the Escrow Agent will survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or termination of the Escrow Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Escrow Agent may act upon any written instructions given by the Company and the Purchaser jointly. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event of any dispute arising between the Purchaser and the Company or between any other persons or between any of them with respect to the Subscription Agreement, this Agreement or any matters arising thereto, or with respect to the Subscription Proceeds, the Escrow Agent may in its sole discretion deliver and interplead the Subscription Proceeds into court and such delivery and interpleading will be an effective discharge to the Escrow Agent.

Successor to Escrow Agent Any corporation with which the Escrow Agent may be amalgamated, merged or consolidated, or any corporation succeeding to the business of the Escrow Agent will be the successor of the Escrow Agent under this Agreement without any further act on its part or on the part or any of the Parties, provided that the successor is recognized as a transfer agent by the Canadian exchange the Issuer is listed on (or if the Issuer is not listed on a Canadian exchange, by any Canadian exchange) and notice is given to the securities regulators with jurisdiction.
