ESCROW SHARES
2.1 Deposit. On or before the Effective Date, each of the Existing Stockholders shall deliver to the Escrow Agent certificates representing his respective Escrow Shares, to be held and disbursed subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Existing Stockholder acknowledges that the certificate representing his Escrow Shares is legended to reflect the deposit of such Escrow Shares under this Agreement.
2.2 Disbursement. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares until the completion of its Initial Business Combination, as defined and more fully described in the Prospectus and the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Initial Business Combination”), whereby the Escrow Shares of each Existing Stockholder will be released from escrow at the end of the period commencing on the date of the Prospectus and ending three (3) years after the date of the Prospectus (the “Escrow Period”). On such date, the Escrow Agent shall, upon written instructions from each Existing Stockholder, disburse each of the Existing Stockholder’s Escrow Shares to such Existing Stockholder; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified by the Company pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof that the Company is being liquidated at any time during the Escrow Period, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly release the Escrow Shares to the Existing Stockholders so that they can similarly participate in the distribution of the funds held in trust as described in the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and that certain Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Trust Agreement”), by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee; provided, further, that if, after the Company consummates an Initial Business Combination and the Company or the surviving entity of such Initial Business Combination subsequently consummates a transaction which results in all of the stockholders of the Company or such entity having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property, then the Escrow Agent will, upon receipt of a certificate, executed by the Chief Executive Officer or President of the Company, in form reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent, that such transaction is then being consummated, release the Escrow Shares to the Existing Stockholders upon consummation of the transaction so that they can similarly participate. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder after the disbursement of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 2.2. The Company shall give the Escrow Agent written notification of the liquidation and dissolution of the Company in the event that the Company fails to consummate an Initial Business Combination within the time period(s) specified in the Prospectus.
