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.

Additionally, Escrow Agent is entitled to reasonable fees for extraordinary services and reimbursement of any reasonable out of pocket and extraordinary costs and expenses related to its obligations as Escrow Agent under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees. All of the Escrow Agent’s compensation, costs and expenses shall be paid by the Company.
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.

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.

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.

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.
