Exculpation and Indemnification of Escrow Agent 9.1. The Escrow Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth herein. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to enforce any obligation of any person to make any payment or delivery, or to direct or cause any payment or delivery to be made, or to enforce any obligation of any person to perform any other act. The Escrow Agent shall be under no liability to the other parties hereto or to anyone else by reason of any failure on the part of any party hereto or any maker, guarantor, endorser or other signatory of any document or any other person to perform such person's obligations under such document. Except for amendments to this Agreement referred to below, and except for instructions given to the Escrow Agent by the Company and the subscribers relating to the Escrow Account, the Escrow Agent, as applicable, shall not be obligated to recognize any agreement between any and all of the persons referred to herein, notwithstanding that references thereto may be made herein and whether or not it has knowledge thereof.
9.2. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable to the Company or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment. The Escrow Agent may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained), which is believed by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Escrow Agreement or any of the terms thereof, unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Escrow Agent, as applicable, signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent, as applicable, are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto.
9.3. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the sufficiency or accuracy of the form of, or the execution, validity, value or genuineness of, any document or property received, held or delivered by it hereunder, or of any signature or endorsement thereon, or for any lack of endorsement thereon, or for any description therein, nor shall the Escrow Agent be responsible or liable to the other parties hereto or to anyone else in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the persons executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any document or property pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Except as specifically provided for herein, the Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the use or application of any funds or other property paid or delivered by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the provisions hereof. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable to the Company or to anyone else for any loss which may be incurred by reason of any investment of any monies which it holds hereunder provided the Escrow Agent, as applicable, has complied with the provisions of Section 2 hereunder.
9.4. The Escrow Agent shall have the right to assume in the absence of written notice to the contrary from the proper person or persons that a fact or an event by reason of which an action would or might be taken by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, does not exist or has not occurred, without incurring liability to the other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, in reliance upon such assumption.
9.5. To the extent that the Escrow Agent becomes liable for the payment of taxes, including withholding taxes, in respect of income derived from the investment of funds held hereunder or any payment made hereunder, the Escrow Agent, as applicable, may pay such taxes. The Escrow Agent, as applicable, may withhold from any payment of monies held by it hereunder such amount as the Escrow Agent, as applicable, estimates to be sufficient to provide for the payment of such taxes not yet paid, and may use the sum withheld for that purpose. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless against any liability for taxes and for any penalties or interest in respect of taxes, on such investment income or payments in the manner provided in Section 9.6.
9.6. The Escrow Agent will be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any and all expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim, or in connection with any claim or demand, which in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Escrow Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent, as applicable, hereunder, the monies or other property held by it hereunder or any income earned from investment of such monies; provided, that such expenses or loss are not as a result of the Escrow Agent, as applicable, acting, or omitting to take action, in bad faith or with willful misconduct or gross negligence promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent, as applicable, shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company, notify the Company thereof in writing, but the failure by the Escrow Agent, as applicable, to give such notice shall not relieve the Company from any liability which the Company may have to the Escrow Agent hereunder. For the purposes hereof, the term "expense or loss" shall include all amounts paid or payable to satisfy any claim, demand or liability, or in settlement of any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding settled with the express written consent of the Escrow Agent, and all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, paid or incurred in investigating or defending against any such claims, demand, action, suit or proceeding.
Indemnification Escrow (a) The Escrow Deposit Amount, or from and after the Closing the Remaining Escrow Deposit Amount, shall (subject to the terms and conditions of Article 6) serve as and be the sole and exclusive source for payment of claims for indemnification by any Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to Article 6. The Escrow Letter of Credit, which shall be provided at the Closing by Purchaser to the Escrow Agent in respect of the Escrow Deposit Amount, shall be held by the Escrow Agent in an account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Escrow Agreement”).
(b) On the date which is twelve (12) months following the Closing, the Escrow Agent shall pay and disburse to the Partnership, via a draw on the funds available under the Escrow Letter of Credit, the Initial Indemnity Release Amount calculated in accordance with Section 2.13, and the amount available to be drawn under the Escrow Letter of Credit and the aggregate principal amount of the Escrow Letter of Credit shall be reduced to reflect the foregoing draw and payment.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in the Escrow Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Partnership is entitled, pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, to funds to be drawn from the Escrow Letter of Credit and the Escrow Agent is not able to draw all or any part of such funds from the Escrow Letter of Credit after receiving a notice (formatted as a joint written instruction) directing it to draw and release such funds, whether due to the expiration of the Escrow Letter of Credit, technical draw issues or otherwise, then, and in any such event, Purchaser shall deliver to the Partnership, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, not later than three (3) business days (with time of the essence) after a written request therefor from the Partnership, the amount of funds to which the Partnership is entitled or, if less than such amount, the remaining amount available to be drawn under the Escrow Letter of Credit, and the amount available to be drawn thereafter under the Escrow Letter of Credit (if not already equal to Zero) shall be reduced by the amount of such wire transfer. Without limiting the forgoing, any inability of the Escrow Agent to draw upon the Escrow Letter of Credit for any amount that is properly payable to the Partnership from the Escrow Letter of Credit or the Indemnity Escrow Account pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement shall not relieve the Purchaser from its obligation to have made or to make such payment to the Partnership, and the Purchaser shall effect such payment by wire transfer in accordance with the preceding sentence.
(d) If either Purchaser or the Partnership anticipates that there will be any funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit as of the expiration date of the Escrow Letter of Credit (the “Escrow L/C Expiration”), then Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain and deliver to the Escrow Agent, at least three (3) business days prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration, a replacement clean, irrevocable and unconditional standby letter of credit in the aggregate face amount equal to the amount of funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit (i) in substantially the same form as the Escrow Letter of Credit or such other form as is reasonably acceptable to the Partnership and the Escrow Agent and (ii) from the then-current lender under the Escrow Letter of Credit or such other lender as is reasonably acceptable to the Partnership (the “Replacement Letter of Credit”). The Escrow Agreement shall provide that if the Escrow Agent has not received a Replacement Letter of Credit from Purchaser and written notice from the Partnership that the Replacement Letter of Credit satisfies the requirements of this Section 2.12(d) at least six (6) business days prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration, then prior to the close of business on the third (3rd) business day prior to the Escrow L/C Expiration (with time of the essence), the Escrow Agent shall draw all funds remaining under the Escrow Letter of Credit and hold such funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account for release pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Escrow Agreement (a “Full Draw Event”). Following the expiration of the Escrow Letter of Credit, all references in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement to the Escrow Letter of Credit shall be deemed to refer to the Replacement Letter of Credit (and any subsequent replacement standby letter of credit that complies with this Section 2.12(d)), and this Section 2.12(d) shall apply to the Replacement Letter of Credit mutatis mutandis.
(e) The Parties agree that the Escrow Agreement shall treat the Escrow Letter of Credit and any funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Account as owned by the Partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
