notice, advice or instruction in connection with the provisions hereof has been
duly authorized to do so. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable to the parties
hereto or to any other individual or entity, in any manner for the sufficiency

instructions delivered to it, nor as to the identity, authority or rights of any
person executing the same. The duties of the Escrow Agent shall be limited to

obligations shall be read into this Escrow Agreement as against the Escrow
Agent. Upon the Escrow Agent's disbursing the deposit of an investor in
accordance with the provisions hereof, the escrow shall terminate with regard to
said investor's funds and the Escrow Agent shall thereafter be relieved of all
liability thereunder in connection therewith.
5. The Escrow Agent may consult with counsel of its own choice and
shall have full and complete authorization and protection for any action taken
or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of
such counsel. The Escrow Agent shall otherwise not be liable for any mistakes of
