ESCROW
The Escrow Agent receiving funds is
authorized and agrees by acceptance of them to deposit them promptly, hold same
in escrow and, subject to clearance, disburse them in accordance with the terms
and conditions of this Contract. Failure of clearance of funds shall
not excuse Purchaser's performance. If in doubt as to Escrow Agent's
duties or liabilities under the provisions of this Contract, Escrow Agent may,
at Escrow Agent's option, continue to hold the subject matter of the escrow
until the parties mutually agree to its disbursement, or until the judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction shall determine the rights of the parties or
Escrow Agent may deposit the subject matter of this escrow with the clerk of the
court having jurisdiction over the dispute. Upon notifying all
parties concerned of such action, all liability on the part of Escrow Agent
shall fully terminate, except to the extent of accounting for any items
previously delivered out of escrow. Any suit between Purchaser and
Seller where Escrow Agent is made a party because of acting as Escrow Agent
hereunder, or in any suit wherein Escrow Agent interpleads the subject matter of
the escrow, Escrow Agent shall recover reasonable attorney's fees and costs
incurred with the fees and costs charged and assessed as court costs in favor of
the prevailing parties. The parties agree that the Escrow Agent shall
not be liable to any party or person for misdelivery to Purchaser or Seller of
items subject to this escrow, unless such misdelivery is due to the willful
breach of this Contract by Escrow Agent.
