Escrow Agent has no responsibility whatsoever to determine the market or other value of any investment hereunder and makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy of any such valuations or that any values necessarily reflect the proceeds that may be received on the sale. Escrow Agent shall not have any liability for any loss sustained as a result of any investment made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or as a result of any liquidation of any investment prior to its maturity or for the failure of an Authorized Representative of the Escrow Issuer to give Escrow Agent instructions to invest or reinvest the Escrow Funds. Escrow Agent or any of its affiliates may receive compensation with respect to any investment directed hereunder, including, without limitation, charging any applicable agency fee or trade execution fee in connection with each transaction.

Any interest and other income from investment of the Escrow Funds shall, as of the end of each calendar year and to the extent required by the Internal Revenue Service or other applicable taxing authority, be reported on IRS Form 1099 or 1042S (or other appropriate form) as having been earned by the Escrow Issuer, whether or not such income was disbursed during such calendar year and no other tax withholding or information reporting of any kind is required by Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent’s function of making payments under this Agreement is solely ministerial and upon express direction of the Parties as provided for in this Agreement. The Escrow Issuer shall indemnify, defend and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any tax, late payment, interest, penalty or other cost or expense that may be assessed against the Escrow Agent on or with respect to the Escrow Funds and the investment thereof unless such tax, late payment, interest, penalty or other expense is with respect to income taxes or similar taxes related to the Escrow Funds or was finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent. The indemnification provided by this Section 2(b)(iv) is in addition to the indemnification provided in Section 5 and shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the termination of this Agreement.

The provisions of this clause (c) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.
(iv) Substitution of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent may resign by giving no less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the Escrow Issuer and the Trustee. Such resignation shall take effect upon the later to occur of (i) delivery of all Escrow Funds maintained by the Escrow Agent hereunder and copies of all books, records and other documents in the Escrow Agent’s possession relating to the Escrow Funds or this Agreement, in each case to a successor escrow agent mutually approved by the Escrow Issuer and the Trustee (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and to an account under the control of the Trustee; provided that the “securities intermediary’s jurisdiction” of such successor escrow agent shall be the State of New York for purposes of the UCC, including Section 9-305 and Section 8-110 thereof, and (ii) the Escrow Issuer, the Trustee and such successor escrow agent entering into this Agreement or any written successor agreement no less favorable to the interests of the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee than this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall thereupon be discharged of all obligations under this Agreement and shall have no further duties, obligations or responsibilities in connection herewith. If a successor escrow agent has not been appointed or has not accepted such appointment within 30 days after notice of resignation is given to the Escrow Issuer and the Trustee, the Escrow Agent may apply at the expense of the Escrow Issuer to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor escrow agent. No appointed successor escrow agent shall be deemed to be an agent of Escrow Agent. Any entity into which the Escrow Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell all or substantially all of its escrow business will automatically become the successor Escrow Agent under this Agreement.

The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to refuse to act until either any conflicting, ambiguous or adverse claims or demands shall have been determined by the final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or settled by agreement between the conflicting claimants as evidenced in a writing reasonably satisfactory to the Escrow Agent, or the Escrow Agent shall have received security or an indemnity satisfactory to the Escrow Agent sufficient to save the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any and all loss, liability or expense which the Escrow Agent may incur by reason of its acting. The Escrow Agent may in addition elect in its sole option to commence an interpleader action or seek other judicial relief or orders as the Escrow Agent may deem necessary. The costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with such proceedings shall be paid by, and shall be deemed obligations of, the Escrow Issuer.
(g) No provision of this Agreement shall require the Escrow Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder.
(h) The Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Escrow Agent (including, but not limited to, any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God, terrorism or war, epidemics, pandemics, the failure or malfunction of communication or computer systems, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility), fire, floods, strikes, public health emergencies, electrical outages, equipment or transmission failure, or other causes reasonably beyond its control.
Section 5. Indemnity.
The Escrow Issuer shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Trustee and the Escrow Agent, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents, employees and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all claims, actions, obligations, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable defense costs, reasonable investigative fees and costs, reasonable legal fees, and claims for damages, arising from the Trustee’s or the Escrow Agent’s performance or non-performance, or in connection with the Escrow Agent’s acceptance of appointment as the Escrow Agent, under this Agreement, except to the extent that such liability, expense or claim shall have been caused by the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any such Indemnified Person as determined by the final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section 5 shall survive any termination, satisfaction or discharge of this Agreement as well as the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the Trustee, as applicable.
13
Section 6. Grant of Security Interest; Instructions to Escrow Agent.
(i) 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 right, title and interest in:
(i) the Escrow Funds, the Escrow Account and all “financial assets” (as such term is defined in Section 8-102(a) of the UCC) and other property now or hereafter placed or deposited in, or delivered to the Escrow Agent for placement or deposit in, the Escrow Account, including, without limitation, all funds held therein, and all Eligible Investments held by (or otherwise maintained in the name of) the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 2;
(ii) all “security entitlements” (as such term is defined in Section 8-102(a) of the UCC) from time to time credited to the Escrow Account;
(iii) all claims and rights of whatever nature which the Escrow Issuer may now have or hereafter acquire against any third party in respect of any of the Collateral described in this Section 6 (including any claims or rights in respect of any security entitlements credited to an account of the Escrow Agent maintained at The Depository Trust Company or any other clearing corporation) or any other “securities intermediary” (as such terms are defined in Section 8-102(a) of the UCC);
(iv) all rights which the Escrow Issuer has under this Agreement and all rights it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Escrow Agent in respect of its holding and managing all or any part of the Collateral, together with all books and records, credit files, computer files, programs, printouts and other computer materials and records to the extent related thereto and any “general intangibles” (as defined in Article 9 of the New York UCC) at any time to the extent evidencing or to the extent relating to any of the foregoing; and
(v) all “proceeds” (as such term is defined in Section 9-102(a) of the UCC) of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Collateral”), in order to secure payment of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price and 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 not grant or cause or permit any other person to obtain a security interest, encumbrance, lien or other claim, direct or indirect, in the Escrow Issuer’s right, title or interest in the Escrow Account or any Collateral.
14
(ii) The Escrow Issuer hereby irrevocably instructs the Escrow Agent to, and the Escrow Agent shall:
(i) maintain the Escrow Account for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Trustee on its behalf and on behalf of the Holders of the Notes to the extent specifically required herein; treat all property in the Escrow Account as “financial assets” (as defined in Section 8-102(a) of the UCC); take any reasonable steps specified in writing by the Escrow Issuer pursuant to this Section 6 to cause the Trustee to enjoy a continuous perfected first-priority security interest under the UCC, any other applicable statutory or case law or regulation of the State of New York and any applicable law or regulation of the United States in the Collateral, in each case at no cost to the Escrow Agent; and except as otherwise required by law and as set forth in Section 11, maintain the Collateral free and clear of all liens, security interests, safekeeping or other charges, demands and claims of any nature now or hereafter existing in favor of anyone other than the Trustee; and
(ii) promptly notify the Trustee if a Representative Officer of the Escrow Agent receives written notice that any Person other than the Trustee has or purports to have a lien or security interest upon any portion of the Collateral.
In addition to requesting disbursement of amounts held in the Escrow Account pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3, upon an Event of Default 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.
The lien and security interest provided for in this Section 6 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 the Escrow Issuer or the Initial Purchasers in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. 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 at no cost to the Escrow Agent.
(iii) Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to the second to last paragraph of Section 6(b) shall be applied as provided in Section 3(d). Neither the Trustee nor the Escrow Agent shall have any liability for any shortfall in the payment of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price.
(iv) The security interest of the Trustee granted pursuant hereto shall at all times be valid, perfected and enforceable as a first-priority security interest. The Escrow Issuer will take all steps reasonably necessary to maintain the security interest created by this Agreement as a perfected first-priority security interest and will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, or use its 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, and shall direct the Trustee in writing to take all actions necessary on its part, 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 represents and warrants that its legal name is as set forth on the signature page hereof and it is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation, formed under the laws of the State of Delaware and is not formed under the laws of any other jurisdiction, and during the term of this Agreement, the Escrow Issuer will not change its legal name or jurisdiction of formation without giving the Trustee 30 days’ prior written notice.
15
The Escrow Issuer also hereby authorizes the Trustee to file any financing or continuation statements with respect to the Collateral in such jurisdictions and filing offices and containing such description of the Collateral as are reasonably necessary in order to perfect the security interest granted herein without the Escrow Issuer’s signature (to the extent permitted by applicable law), and any such filing is hereby authorized to be made by the Initial Purchasers or their counsel on behalf of the Trustee. 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 the Collateral. Notwithstanding the authorizations set forth in clause (b) or this clause (d), 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, validity or perfection of any security interest granted hereunder and the Escrow Issuer agrees to file or to cause to be filed all such UCC financing statements in such jurisdictions and filing offices and containing such description of the Collateral as is necessary in order to perfect the security interest granted herein.
(v) The Escrow Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to do any act that the Escrow Issuer is obligated hereby to do, and the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, exercise such rights as the Escrow Issuer might exercise with respect to the Collateral and take any action in the Escrow Issuer’s name to protect the Trustee’s security interest hereunder.
(vi) If at any time the Escrow Agent shall receive any “entitlement order” (as such term is defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) or any other instructions issued by the Trustee directing the disposition of funds in the Escrow Account or otherwise related to the Escrow Account, the Escrow Agent shall comply with any such entitlement order or instructions without further consent by the Escrow Issuer or any other person.
(vii) The Escrow Agent represents that it is a “securities intermediary” and that each Securities Account is, and will be at all times, a “securities account” (as each such term is defined in the UCC).
(viii) The Escrow Issuer hereby confirms that the arrangements established under this Section 6 constitute “control” by the Trustee of the Escrow Account (as such term is defined in Article 9 of the UCC). 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 6. In the event of any conflict with respect to control over the Escrow Account between this Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.
(ix) The Escrow Agent xxxxxx agrees that any security interest in, lien on, or 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 otherwise set forth 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. It is understood that the Escrow Agent has no responsibility with respect to the validity or perfection of the Trustee’s security interest other than to act in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
16
Section 7. Termination.
This Agreement and the security interest in the Escrowed Funds evidenced by this Agreement shall terminate automatically and be of no further force or effect upon the distribution of all Escrowed Funds in accordance with Section 3 hereof; provided, however, that the obligations of the Escrow Issuer under Section 2(b)(iv), Section 2(c) and Section 5 (and any existing claims thereunder) shall survive termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.
Section 8. Security Interest Absolute.
All rights of the Trustee for its own benefit and the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and security interests hereunder, and all obligations of the Escrow Issuer hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Indenture or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Indenture;
(iii) any exchange, surrender, release or non-perfection of any Liens on any other collateral for all or any of the Secured Obligations; or
(iv) to the extent permitted by applicable law, any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Escrow Issuer in respect of the Secured Obligations or of this Agreement.
Section 9. Miscellaneous.
(i) Waiver. Any party hereto may specifically waive any breach of this Agreement by any other party, but no such waiver shall be deemed to have been given unless such waiver is in writing, signed by the waiving party and specifically designating the breach waived, nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver of similar or other breaches.
(ii) Invalidity. If for any reason whatsoever any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held or deemed to be inoperative, unenforceable or invalid in a particular case or in all cases, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering any of the other provisions of this Agreement inoperative, unenforceable or invalid, and the inoperative, unenforceable or invalid provision shall be construed as if it were written so as to effectuate, to the maximum extent possible, the parties’ intent.
17
(iii) Assignment. This Agreement is personal to the parties hereto, and the rights and duties of the Escrow Issuer hereunder shall not be assignable except with the prior written consent of the other Party and the Escrow Agent and any assignment in violation of this Agreement shall be ineffective and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall inure to and be binding upon the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.
(iv) Benefit. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall give to any person, other than the parties hereto and their permitted successors hereunder, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement except as expressly set forth in Section 2(b)(iv) and Section 5.
(v) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement (and solely between the Escrow Issuer and the Trustee, the Indenture) contain the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all prior agreements, understandings and commitments, whether oral or written. Any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and any consent to any departure by the Escrow Issuer from any provision of this Agreement shall be in writing and effective only after being executed by each party hereto (and the Parties agree among themselves that any such amendment or waiver shall be made or duly given in compliance with all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture), and neither the Escrow Agent nor the Trustee shall be deemed, by any act, delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise, to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree between themselves that the parties hereto may amend or supplement this Agreement without the consent of any Holder in order to (x) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency or (y) to conform the text of this Agreement to any provision of the “Description of the Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

(x) Representations and Warranties of Escrow Issuer. The Escrow Issuer hereby represents and warrants that this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered on its behalf and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms (except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency (including, without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers), moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and except as the enforcement thereof is subject to equitable principles regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity). The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Escrow Issuer (including any instructions delivered hereunder) does not violate any applicable law or regulation to which the Escrow Issuer is subject and does not require the consent of any governmental or other regulatory body to which the Escrow Issuer is subject, except for such consents and approvals as have been obtained and are in full force and effect. The Escrow Issuer is, with respect to the Escrowed Funds delivered pursuant to this Agreement, the beneficial owner of such Escrowed Funds, free and clear of any Lien or claims of any Person (except for the security interest granted under this Agreement) and (D) the person(s) executing this Agreement on the Escrow Issuer's behalf and certifying Authorized Representatives in the applicable Schedule 1 have been duly and properly authorized to do so, and each Authorized Representative of the Escrow Issuer has been duly and properly authorized to take the actions specified for such person in the applicable Schedule 1.

Acceptance of or acquiescence in a course of performance rendered under this Agreement shall not be relevant to determine the meaning of this Agreement even though the accepting or acquiescing party had knowledge of the nature of the performance and opportunity for objection.
(xiii) Survival of Provisions. All representations, warranties and covenants of the Escrow Issuer contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and shall terminate only upon the termination of this Agreement.
(xiv) Patriot Act. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, the Escrow Agent will ask for documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity. The Escrow Agent may also ask to see financial statements, licenses, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation.
(xv) Security Advice. The Escrow Issuer acknowledges that regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency grant the Escrow Issuer the right to receive brokerage confirmations of the security transactions as they occur.

Section 10. Security Procedures.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any instructions in any way related to the transfer or distribution of the Escrow Funds must, in order to be deemed delivered and effective, be in writing and executed by the appropriate Party or Parties as evidenced by the signatures of the person or persons signing this Agreement or one of the designated persons as set forth on the Designation of Authorized Representatives attached hereto as Schedule 1-A and 1-B (each an “Authorized Representative”), and delivered to Escrow Agent only by facsimile (as evidenced by a confirmed transmittal to the applicable Party’s or Parties’ transmitting fax number) or as a Portable Document Format (“PDF”) attached to an email only at the fax number or email address set forth in Section 9(g) or through an online platform offered by Escrow Agent’s escrow services business. Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any Party or other person for refraining from acting upon any instruction for or related to the transfer or distribution of the Escrow Funds that does not satisfy the requirements herein. Escrow Agent may rely and act upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be an Authorized Representative in connection with any of Escrow Agent’s verifying call-backs or email confirmations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Escrow Agent (i) shall have no obligation to take any action in connection with this Agreement on a non-Business Day and any action Escrow Agent may otherwise be required to perform on a non-Business Day may be performed by Escrow Agent on the following Business Day and (ii) may not transfer or distribute the Escrow Funds until Escrow Agent has completed its security procedures.
(ii) Each Party authorizes Escrow Agent to use the funds transfer instructions (“Standing Instructions”) specified for it in Schedule 3 attached hereto (as may be supplemented from time to time as described below) to disburse any funds due to such Party, without a verifying call-back or email confirmation as set forth below.
(iii) If any funds transfer instructions other than Standing Instructions are set forth in a permitted instruction from a Party or the Parties in accordance with this Agreement, Escrow Agent may confirm such funds transfer instructions by a telephone call-back or email confirmation to an Authorized Representative of such Party or Parties and thereafter, such funds transfer instructions shall also be considered the applicable Party’s Standing Instructions hereunder. To the extent a call-back or email confirmation is undertaken, no funds will be disbursed until such confirmation occurs. If multiple disbursements are provided for under this Agreement pursuant to any Standing Instructions, only the date, amount and/or description of payments may change without requiring a telephone call-back or email confirmation.
(iv) The persons designated as Authorized Representatives and telephone numbers and email addresses for same may be changed only in a writing executed by an Authorized Representative or other duly authorized person of the applicable Party setting forth such changes and actually received by Escrow Agent via facsimile or as a PDF attached to an email or through an online platform offered by Xxxxxx Agent’s escrow services business. Escrow Agent may confirm any such change in Authorized Representatives by a telephone call-back or email confirmation according to its security procedures.
Escrow Agent and other financial institutions, including any intermediary bank and the beneficiary’s bank, may rely upon the identifying number of the beneficiary, the beneficiary’s bank or any intermediary bank included in a funds transfer instruction, even if it identifies a person different from the beneficiary, the beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank identified by name. It is understood that the purpose of Escrow Agent’s security procedures is to verify the authenticity of, and not to detect errors in, instructions.
(v) The Parties acknowledge that the security procedures set forth in this Section are commercially reasonable.
21
(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that an electronic signature is affixed to an instruction issued hereunder to disburse or transfer funds, such instruction may be confirmed by a verifying call-back (or email confirmation) to an Authorized Representative.
Section 11. Compliance with Directives. In the event that a legal garnishment, attachment, levy, restraining notice, court order or other governmental order (a “Directive”) is served with respect to any of the Escrow Funds, or the delivery thereof shall be stayed or enjoined by a Directive, Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized, in its sole discretion, to obey and comply with all such Directives so entered or issued, and in the event that Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such Directive it shall not be liable to any of the Parties hereto or to any other person by reason of such compliance notwithstanding such Directive be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.
