Upon receipt of the Deposit Funds, the successor deposit account agent shall become the deposit account agent hereunder and shall be bound by all of the provisions hereof and Deposit Account Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability thereafter arising with respect to the Deposit Funds and under this Agreement.
8. Investment. All funds received by the Deposit Account Agent shall be held only in non-interest-bearing accounts at Pacific Mercantile Bank.

Neither the modification, cancellation, termination or rescission of this Agreement nor the resignation or termination of the Deposit Account Agent shall affect the right of Deposit Account Agent to retain the amount of any fee which has been paid, or to be reimbursed or paid any amount which has been incurred or becomes due, prior to the effective date of any such modification, cancellation, termination, resignation or rescission. To the extent the Deposit Account Agent has incurred any such expenses, or any such fee becomes due, prior to any closing, the Deposit Account Agent shall advise the Company and the Company shall direct all such amounts to be paid directly at any such closing.
