Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no income earned on funds posted to the DDCA will be disbursed until credited to the Escrow Account. If all or a portion of the Escrowed Funds are deposited with the Escrow Agent after 11:00 a.m. New York City time, the Escrow Agent shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest the Escrowed Funds held in the Escrow Account until the following Business Day.

The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss in the value of any investment made pursuant to this Agreement, or for any loss, cost or penalty resulting from any sale or liquidation of the Escrow Property, except to the extent such loss results, in whole or in part, from Escrow Agent’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct (as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances shall the Escrow Agent have any liability for any loss in the value of any investment made, to the extent that such investment was executed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Unless if arising from the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction), should the Escrow Agent become liable for the payment of taxes, including withholding taxes relating to any funds, including interest and penalties thereon, held by it pursuant to this Agreement or any payment made hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall satisfy such liability to the extent possible from the Escrow Property. The Escrow Agent shall exercise reasonable efforts to notify the Escrow Issuer in writing prior to making any such payment from the Escrow Property. The Escrow Issuer agrees to indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless pursuant to Section 7(b) hereof from any liability or obligation on account of taxes, assessments, interest, penalties, expenses and other governmental charges that may be assessed or asserted against the Escrow Agent.
(e) The Escrow Agent’s rights under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.
6. Concerning the Escrow Agent.
(a) Escrow Agent Duties. Each Interested Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the duties, responsibilities and obligations of the Escrow Agent shall be limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement, each of which is administrative or ministerial (and shall not be construed to be fiduciary) in nature, and no duties, responsibilities or obligations shall be inferred or implied, (ii) the Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any of the agreements referred to or described herein (including without limitation the Indenture and the Purchase Agreement), or for determining or compelling compliance therewith, and shall not otherwise be bound thereby, and (iii) the Escrow Agent shall not be required to expend or risk any of its own funds to satisfy payments from the Escrow Property hereunder.
(b) Liability of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any damage, loss or injury resulting from any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction). In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive or special losses or damages (including but not limited to lost profits), regardless of the form of action and whether or not any such losses or damages were foreseeable or contemplated. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with or rely upon any instruction, notice, request or other instrument delivered to it without being required to determine the authenticity or validity thereof or the truth or accuracy of any information stated therein. The Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any signature believed by it in good faith to be genuine and may assume that any person purporting to make any statement or execute any document in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so. The Escrow Agent may consult with counsel satisfactory to it, and the opinion or advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with the opinion and advice of such counsel. The Escrow Agent may perform any and all of its duties through its agents, representatives, attorneys, custodians and/or nominees; provided that the Escrow Agent shall remain liable for the actions or failures to act of such agents, representatives, attorneys, custodians and/or nominees to the same extent it would have been liable had it performed such actions or failed to act itself. The Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any obligation hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond its control (including, without limitation, any provision of any present or future law or regulation or any act of any governmental authority, any act of God or war or terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire services or any electronic communication facility).
-8-
(c) Reliance on Orders. The Escrow Agent is authorized to comply with final orders issued or process entered by any court with respect to the Escrow Property, without determination by the Escrow Agent of such court’s jurisdiction in the matter. If any portion of the Escrow Property is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order, or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in case any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part thereof, then and in any such event, the Escrow Agent, after having provided notice to the Escrow Issuer, is authorized to rely upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree which it is advised is binding upon it without the need for appeal or other action; and if the Escrow Agent complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree, it shall not be liable to any of the Interested Parties hereto or to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ, judgment or decree may be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the Escrow Agent becoming aware of any such order, process, judgment, decree, stay or injunction described above (any of the foregoing, an “Order”), the Escrow Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law and process, notify the Escrow Issuer of such Order in writing, which notice shall provide reasonably detailed information with respect to such Order such that the Escrow Issuer would be able to seek to vacate or oppose such Order (the “Notice”). With respect to any such Order, during the 60 days after delivery of such Notice, the Escrow Agent shall, except as required by applicable law or process, take no action with respect to the Escrow Property until the Escrow Issuer has had the opportunity to vacate or oppose such Order in good faith.
7. Compensation, Expense Reimbursement and Indemnification.

The foregoing indemnification and agreement to hold harmless shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.

(a) The Escrow Issuer hereby irrevocably grants a first priority security interest in and lien on, and pledges, assigns, transfers and sets over to the Trustee for its own benefit and the benefit of the holders of the Notes, all of its respective right, title and interest in, to the extent applicable, the Escrow Account, the Escrow Property, and all other property now or hereafter placed or deposited in, or delivered to the Escrow Agent for placement or deposit in, the Escrow Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, all funds held therein, and all investments held by (or otherwise maintained in the name of) the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 4 (collectively, the “Collateral”), in order to secure all obligations and indebtedness of the Escrow Issuer under the Indenture, the Notes and any other obligation, now or hereafter arising, of every kind and nature, owed by the Escrow Issuer under the Indenture or the Notes to the holders of the Notes or to the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee (collectively, the “Secured Obligations”). The Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges the Trustee’s security interest and lien as set forth above. The Escrow Issuer shall take all actions and shall direct the Trustee in writing to take all actions necessary on its part to insure the continuance of a perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral in favor of the Trustee in order to secure all Secured Obligations.

(iii) in addition to disbursing amounts held in escrow pursuant to and in accordance with Sections 3(a) and 3(b), upon receipt of written notice from the Trustee of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes and direction from the Trustee to disburse the Escrow Property to the Trustee, as promptly as practicable, disburse all funds and other Collateral held in the Escrow Account to the Trustee or as otherwise directed by the Trustee, including liquidating any investments held by the Escrow Agent hereunder, to or as directed by the Trustee. In addition, upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) and for so long as such Event of Default continues, the Trustee may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or other applicable law. Upon receipt of written instructions from the Trustee upon which the Trustee is exercising control over the Escrow Account, and instructing the Escrow Agent to take any action in respect of the Collateral held by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon, and to act in accordance with, such instructions, without further inquiry, and the Escrow Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to determine whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if applicable, or whether the Trustee has complied with the terms of the Indenture.
-10-
The lien and security interest provided for in this Section 8 shall automatically terminate and cease as to, and shall not extend or apply to, and the Trustee and the Escrow Agent shall have no security interest in, any funds disbursed by the Escrow Agent to, or on behalf of, the Escrow Issuer pursuant to this Agreement to the extent not inconsistent with the terms hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the Escrow Issuer shall not require the consent of the Escrow Agent or the Trustee to file UCC termination statements upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 18 hereof. The Escrow Agent shall not have any right to receive compensation from the Trustee and shall have no authority to obligate the Trustee or to compromise or pledge its security interest hereunder. Accordingly, the Escrow Agent is hereby directed to cooperate with the Trustee in the exercise of its rights in the Collateral provided for herein.
(c) Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to Section 8(b)(iii) shall be applied as provided in Section 6.10 of the Indenture. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by the Trustee and remaining after indefeasible payment in full of all the obligations under the Indenture shall be paid over to the Escrow Issuer promptly or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. Neither the Trustee nor the Escrow Agent shall have any liability for any shortfall to the extent of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price.
(d) The Escrow Issuer will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, or use its commercially reasonable best efforts to procure, all assignments, instruments and other documents, deliver any instruments to the Trustee and take any other actions that are necessary or desirable to perfect, continue the perfection of, or protect the first priority of the Trustee’s security interest in and to the Collateral, to protect the Collateral against the rights, claims, or interests of third persons or to effect the purposes of this Agreement. The Escrow Issuer shall pay all reasonable costs incurred in connection with any of the foregoing, it being understood that the Trustee shall have no duty to determine whether to file or record any document or instrument relating to Collateral. Neither the Trustee nor the Escrow Agent shall have any duty or obligation to file or record any document or otherwise to see to the grant or perfection of any security interest granted hereunder.
(e) The Escrow Agent represents that it is a “securities intermediary” and that the Escrow Account is a “securities account” (as each such term is defined in the UCC). The “Securities Intermediary’s Jurisdiction” (within the meaning of Section 8-110(e) of the UCC) of the Escrow Agent shall be the State of New York.
-11-
(f) The Escrow Issuer hereby confirms that the arrangements established under this Section 8 constitute “control” by the Trustee of the Escrow Account, as each of those terms is defined in Article 9 of the UCC as adopted in the State of New York. Other than the Indenture and the other provisions of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Issuer have not entered and will not enter into any other agreement with respect to control of the Escrow Account or purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Escrow Agent to comply with any orders or instructions of the Trustee with respect to the Escrow Account as set forth in this Section 8. In the event of any conflict with respect to control over the Escrow Account between this Agreement and the Indenture (or any portion hereof or thereof), on the one hand, and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, on the other hand, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.
(g) The Escrow Agent hereby agrees that any security interest in, lien on, encumbrance, claim or right of setoff against, the Escrow Account or any funds therein that it now has or subsequently obtains shall be subordinate to the security interest of the Trustee in the Escrow Account and the funds therein or credited thereto. Except as expressly permitted herein, the Escrow Agent agrees not to exercise any present or future right of recoupment or set-off against the Escrow Account or to assert against the Escrow Account any present or future security interest, banker’s lien or any other lien or claim (including claim for penalties) that the Escrow Agent may at any time have against or in the Escrow Account or any funds therein.
9. Dispute Resolution. In the event of any disagreement among any of the Interested Parties to this Agreement, or between any of them and any other person, resulting in adverse claims or demands being made with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, or in the event that the Escrow Agent, in good faith, is in reasonable doubt as to any action the Escrow Agent should take hereunder, the Escrow Agent may, at its option, refuse to comply with any claims or demands and refuse to take any other action hereunder, so long as such disagreement continues or such doubt exists, and in any such event, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any way or to any person for its failure or refusal to act, and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to continue to so refuse to act and refrain from acting until the Escrow Agent shall have received (i) a final non-appealable order, judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction or a final non-appealable arbitration decision, or (ii) a written agreement executed by each of the Interested Parties involved in such disagreement, in which case the Escrow Agent shall be authorized to disburse the Escrow Property in accordance with such final court order, judgment, decree, decision or agreement. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to receive (from and at the reasonable expense of the presenting party) an opinion of counsel to the effect that any order, judgment or decree is final and not subject to appeal.

(b) Within 15 calendar days after giving the foregoing notice of removal to the Escrow Agent or within 15 calendar days after receiving the foregoing notice of resignation from the Escrow Agent, the Interested Parties shall appoint a successor escrow agent and give notice of such successor escrow agent to the Escrow Agent.
