ACKNOWLEDGMENT
BY ESCROW HOLDER
The
Escrow Holder hereby agrees to perform its obligations under this Agreement
and
acknowledges receipt of the Xxxxxxx Money of Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($50,000),
and a
fully executed counterpart of this Agreement.
Escrow
Agent shall hold and dispose of the Xxxxxxx Money in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement. Seller and Purchaser agree that the duties of the Escrow
Agent hereunder are purely ministerial in nature and shall be expressly limited
to the safekeeping and disposition of the Xxxxxxx Money in accordance with
this
Agreement. Escrow Agent shall incur no liability in connection with the
safekeeping or disposition of the Xxxxxxx Money for any reason other than Escrow
Agent's tortious acts or omissions. In the event that Escrow Agent shall be
in
doubt as to its duties or obligations with regard to the Xxxxxxx Money, or
in
the event that Escrow Agent receives conflicting instructions from Purchaser
and
Seller with respect to the Xxxxxxx Money, Escrow Agent shall not be required
to
disburse the Xxxxxxx Money and may, at its option, continue to hold the Xxxxxxx
Money until both Purchaser and Seller agree as to its disposition or until
a
final judgment is entered by a court of competent jurisdiction directing its
disposition, or Escrow Agent may interplead the Xxxxxxx Money in accordance
with
the laws of the state in which the Property is located.
Escrow
Agent shall not be responsible for any interest on the Xxxxxxx Money except
as
is actually earned, or for the loss of any interest resulting from the
withdrawal of the Xxxxxxx Money prior to the date interest is posted thereon
if
such withdrawal is upon instruction of either the Seller or
Purchaser.
