Escrow Services Agreement
Exhibit 8
This Escrow Services Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of [●] by and between Prime Trust, LLC (“Prime Trust” or “Escrow Agent”) and To The Stars Academy of Arts and Science Inc. (the “Issuer”).
Recitals
WHEREAS, the Issuer proposes to offer for sale and sell securities to prospective investors (“Subscribers”), as disclosed in its offering materials, in a registered offering pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or exemption from registration (the “Offering”), shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Securities”) with no minimum amount and up to the maximum amount of $2,000,000 (the “Maximum Amount of the Offering”).
WHEREAS, Issuer desires to establish an Escrow Account in which funds received from Subscribers will be held during the Offering, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
WHEREAS, Prime Trust agrees to serve as third-party escrow agent for the Subscribers with respect to such Escrow Account (as defined below) in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein.
Agreement
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration for the mutual covenants, promises, agreements, representations, and warranties contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties herby agree as follows:
1. | Establishment of Escrow Account. Prior to the Issuer initiating the Offering, and prior to the receipt of the first Subscriber funds, Escrow Agent shall establish an account for the Issuer (the “Escrow Account”). All parties agree to maintain the Escrow Account and Escrow Amount (as defined below) in a manner that is compliant with banking and securities regulations. For purposes of communications and directives, Escrow Agent shall be the sole administrator of the Escrow Account. |
2. | Escrow Period. The escrow period (“Escrow Period”) shall begin with the commencement of the Offering and shall be held in the Escrow Account for the benefit of Subscribers, upon the earlier to occur of the following: |
a. | The date upon which the maximum number of securities are sold in bona fide transactions that are fully paid for with cleared funds, which is defined to occur when the Escrow Agent has received gross proceeds of the Maximum Amount of the Offering that have cleared in the Escrow Account and the Issuer has triggered a partial or full closing on those funds. Even after a partial close, Escrow shall remain open in order to clear investor funds and to perform other tasks prior to the Issuer selling securities to any investor; or |
b. | One (1) year from the qualification of the Offering by the Securities and Exchange Commission; or |
c. | The date upon which a determination is made by Issuer and/or their authorized representatives, to terminate the Offering; or |
d. | Escrow Agent’s exercise of the termination rights specified in Section 8. |
During the Escrow Period, the parties agree that (i) the Escrow Account and escrowed funds will be held for the benefit of the Subscribers, and that (ii) Issuer is not entitled to any funds received into the Escrow Account, and that no amounts deposited into the Escrow Account shall become the property of Issuer or any other entity, or be subject to any debts, liens or encumbrances of any kind of Issuer or any other entity, until the satisfactory sale to investors in bona fide transactions that are fully paid and cleared.
3. | Deposits into the Escrow Account. All Subscribers will be directed by the Issuer and its agents to transmit their data and subscription amounts, via Escrow Agent’s technology systems (“Issuer Dashboard”), directly to the Escrow Account to be held for the benefit of Subscribers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and applicable regulations. All Subscribers will transfer funds directly to the Escrow Agent (with checks, if any, made payable to “Prime Trust, LLC as Escrow Agent for Investors in [●]”) for deposit into the Escrow Account. Escrow Agent shall process all Escrow Amounts for collection through the banking system, shall hold such funds, and shall maintain an accounting of each deposit posted to its ledger, which also sets forth, among other things, each Subscriber’s name and address, the quantity of Securities purchased, and the amount paid. All monies so deposited in the Escrow Account and which have cleared the banking system are hereinafter referred to as the "Escrow Amount." No interest shall be paid to Issuer or Subscribers on balances in the Escrow Account. Issuer shall promptly, concurrent with any new or modified Subscription Agreement and/or offering documents, provide Escrow Agent with a copy of the Subscriber’s subscription and other information as may be reasonably requested by Escrow Agent in the performance of their duties under this Agreement. Escrow Agent is under no duty or responsibility to enforce collection of any funds delivered to it hereunder. Issuer shall assist Escrow Agent with clearing any and all AML and ACH exceptions. |
Funds Hold — clearing,
settlement and risk management policy: All parties agree that funds are considered “cleared” as follows:
* Wires — 24 hours after receipt of funds
* Checks — 10 days after deposit
* ACH — As transaction must clear in a manner similar to checks, and as Federal regulations provide investors with 60 days
to recall funds. For risk reduction and protection, in making an effort to provide flexibility to Issuer, the Escrow Agent shall
at its discretion post funds as cleared starting 10 calendar days after receipt. Of course, regardless of this operating policy,
Issuer remains liable to immediately and without protestation or delay return to Prime Trust any funds recalled for whatever reason
pursuant to Federal regulations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, cleared funds remain subject to internal compliance review in accordance with internal procedures and applicable rules and regulations. Escrow Agent reserves the right to deny, suspend or terminate participation in the Escrow Account of any Subscriber to the extent Escrow Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems it advisable or necessary to comply with applicable laws or to eliminate practices that are not consistent with laws, rules, regulations or best practices.
4. | Disbursements from the Escrow Account. In the event Issuer does not initiate any closing prior to the termination of the Escrow Period, Escrow Agent shall terminate the Escrow Account and make a full and prompt return of cleared funds to each Subscriber to the Offering. |
In the event Escrow Agent receives cleared funds prior to the termination of the Escrow Period, and for any point thereafter and Escrow Agent receives a written instruction from Issuer (generally via notification on the Issuer Dashboard), Escrow Agent shall, pursuant to those instructions, make a disbursement to the Issuer from the Escrow Account. Issuer acknowledges that there is a 24-hour (one business day) processing time once a request has been received to disburse funds from the Escrow Account. Furthermore, Issuer directs Escrow Agent to accept instructions regarding fees from registered securities brokers in the syndicate, if any, or from the API integrated platform or portal through which this offering is being conducted, if any.
5. | Collection Procedure. Escrow Agent is hereby authorized, upon receipt of Subscriber funds, to promptly deposit them in the Escrow Account. Any Subscriber funds which fail to clear or are subsequently reversed, including but not limited to ACH chargebacks and wire recalls, shall be debited to the Escrow Account, with such debits reflected on the Escrow Account ledger accessible via Escrow Agent’s API or dashboard technology. Any and all escrow fees paid by Issuer, including those for funds receipt and processing are non-refundable, regardless of whether ultimately cleared, failed, rescinded, returned or recalled. In the event of any Subscriber refunds, returns or recalls after funds have already been remitted to Issuer, then Issuer hereby irrevocably agrees to immediately and without delay or dispute send equivalent funds to Escrow Agent to cover such refunds, returns or recalls. If Issuer has any dispute or disagreement with its Subscriber, Issuer agrees to address such issues with Subscriber separately and apart from this Agreement, but Issuer shall regardless remit funds to Escrow Agent and not involve Escrow Agent in any such disputes unless the source of such dispute is directly related to the services provided by Escrow Agent. |
6. | Escrow Administration Fees, Compensation of Prime Trust. Escrow Agent is entitled to escrow administration fees from Issuer as set forth in Schedule A attached hereto. All fees are charged immediately upon receipt of this Agreement and then immediately as they are incurred in Escrow Agent’s performance hereunder and are not contingent in any way on the success or failure of the Offering or transactions contemplate by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Escrow Agent has agreed as a courtesy to collect payment of its fees at each disbursement of funds from the Escrow Account by the Issuer (which is expected to occur on a monthly basis). No fees, charges or expense reimbursements of Escrow Agent are reimbursable, and are not subject to pro-rata analysis. All fees and charges, if not paid by a representative of Issuer (e.g. funding platform, lead syndicate broker, etc.), may be made via either Issuers credit card or ACH information on file with Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may also collect its fee(s), at its option, from any other account held by the Issuer at Prime Trust. It is acknowledged and agreed that no fees, reimbursement for costs and expenses, indemnification for any damages incurred by Issuer or Escrow Agent shall be paid out of or chargeable to the investor funds on deposit in the Escrow Account. |
7. | Representations and Warranties. The Issuer covenants and makes the following representations and warranties to Escrow Agent: |

d. | The Offering shall contain a statement that Escrow Agent has not investigated the desirability or advisability of investment in the Securities nor approved, endorsed or passed upon the merits of purchasing the Securities; and the name of Escrow Agent has not and shall not be used in any manner in connection with the Offering of the Securities other than to state that Escrow Agent has agreed to serve as escrow agent for the limited purposes set forth in this Agreement, which expressly includes any and all communications with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
e. | No party other than the parties hereto has, or shall have, any lien, claim or security interest in the Escrow Funds or any part thereof.

All of its representations and warranties contained herein are true and complete as of the date hereof and will be true and complete at the time of any disbursement of Escrow Funds.

b. | Termination for Convenience. Any party may terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason by giving at least thirty (30) days’ written notice. |
c. | Escrow Agent’s Resignation. Escrow Agent may unilaterally resign by giving written notice to Issuer, whereupon Issuer will immediately appoint a successor escrow agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Escrow Agent may terminate this Agreement and thereby unilaterally resign under the circumstances specified in Section 2. Until a successor escrow agent accepts appointment or until another disposition of the subject matter has been agreed upon by the parties, following such resignation notice, Escrow Agent shall be discharged of all of its duties hereunder save to keep the subject matter whole. |

10. | Limited Capacity of Escrow Agent. This Agreement expressly and exclusively sets forth the duties of Escrow Agent with respect to any and all matters pertinent hereto, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent acts hereunder as an escrow agent only and is not associated, affiliated, or involved in the business decisions or business activities of Issuer, Issuer’s portal, or Subscriber. Escrow Agent is not responsible or liable in any manner whatsoever for the sufficiency, correctness, genuineness, or validity of the subject matter of this Agreement or any part thereof, or for the form of execution thereof, or for the identity or authority of any person executing or depositing such subject matter. Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to investigate or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any document, agreement, instruction, or request furnished to it hereunder, including, without limitation, the authority or the identity of any signer thereof, believed by it to be genuine, and Escrow Agent may rely and act upon, and shall not be liable for acting or not acting upon, any such document, agreement, instruction, or request. Escrow Agent shall in no way be responsible for notifying, nor shall it be responsible to notify, any party thereto or any other party interested in this Agreement of any payment required or maturity occurring under this Agreement or under the terms of any instrument deposited herewith. Escrow Agent’s entire liability and exclusive remedy in any cause of action based on contract, tort, or otherwise in connection with any services furnished pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited to the total fees paid to Escrow Agent by Issuer. The Escrow Agent shall not be called upon to advise any party as to the wisdom in selling or retaining or taking or refraining from any action with respect to any securities or other property deposited hereunder. Escrow Agent may consult legal counsel selected by it in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions hereof or of any other agreement or of its duties hereunder, or relating to any dispute involving any party hereto with respect to the Agreement, and shall incur no liability and shall be fully indemnified from any reasonable liability whatsoever in acting in accordance with the reasonable opinion or instruction of such counsel. Issuer shall promptly pay, upon demand, the reasonable fees and expenses of any such counsel. |
11. | Indemnity. Issuer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Escrow Agent and its related entities, directors, employees, service providers, advertisers, affiliates, officers, agents, and partners and third-party service providers (collectively “Escrow Agent Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, or demand, including attorneys’ fees (collectively “Expenses”), made by any third party due to or arising out of (i) this Agreement or a breach of any provision in this Agreement, or (ii) any change in regulation or law, state or federal, and the enforcement or prosecution of such as such authorities may apply to or against Issuer. This indemnity shall include, but is not limited to, all Expenses incurred in conjunction with any interpleader that Escrow Agent may enter into regarding this Agreement and/or third-party subpoena or discovery process that may be directed to Escrow Agent Indemnified Parties. It shall also include any action(s) by a governmental or trade association authority seeking to impose criminal or civil sanctions on any Escrow Agent Indemnified Parties based on a connection or alleged connection between this Agreement and Issuers business and/or associated persons. These defense, indemnification and hold harmless obligations will survive termination of this Agreement. Escrow Agent reserves the right to control the defense of any such claim or action and all negotiations for settlement or compromise, and to select or approve defense counsel, and Issuer agrees to fully cooperate with Escrow Agent in the defense of any such claim, action, settlement, or compromise negotiations. |
12. | Entire Agreement, Severability and Force Majeure. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between Issuer and Escrow Agent regarding the Escrow Account. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Furthermore, no party shall be responsible for any failure to perform due to acts beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, terrorism, shortage of supply, labor difficulties (including strikes), war, civil unrest, fire, floods, electrical outages, equipment or transmission failures, internet interruptions, vendor failures (including information technology providers), or other similar causes. |
13. | Escrow Agent Compliance. Escrow Agent may, at its sole discretion, comply with any new, changed, or reinterpreted regulatory or legal rules, laws or regulations, law enforcement or prosecution policies, and any interpretations of any of the foregoing, and without necessity of notice, Escrow Agent may (i) modify either this Agreement or the Escrow Account, or both, to comply with or conform to such changes or interpretations or (ii) terminate this Agreement or the Escrow Account or both if, in the sole and absolute discretion of Escrow Agent, changes in law enforcement or prosecution policies (or enactment or issuance of new laws or regulations) applicable to the Issuer might expose Escrow Agent to a risk of criminal or civil prosecution, and/or of governmental or regulatory sanctions or forfeitures if Escrow Agent were to continue its performance under this Agreement. Furthermore, all parties agree that this Agreement shall continue in full force and be valid, unchanged and binding upon any successors of Escrow Agent. Changes to this Agreement will be sent to Issuer via email. Escrow Agent may act or refrain from acting in respect of any matter referred to in this Escrow Agreement in full reliance upon and by and with the advice of its legal counsel and shall be fully protected in so acting or in refraining from acting upon advice of counsel. In the event that the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to (i) refrain from taking any action other than to keep safe the Escrow Amounts until directed otherwise by a court of competent jurisdiction or, (ii) interplead the Escrow Amount to a court of competent jurisdiction. |
14. | Waivers. No waiver by any party to this Agreement of any condition or breach of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless in writing.

If any such electronically-sent communication fails to be received for any reason, including but not limited to such communications being diverted to the recipients’ spam filters by the recipients email service provider or technology, or due to a recipients’ change of address, or due to technology issues by the recipients’ service provider, the parties agree that the burden of such failure to receive is on the recipient and not the sender, and that the sender is under no obligation to resend communications via any other means, including but not limited to postal service or overnight courier, and that such communications shall for all purposes, including legal and regulatory, be deemed to have been delivered and received.
