1. Deposit of Escrowed Funds. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Company, the Placement Agents and any particular subscriber, the Placement Agents shall, from time to time, cause the DWAC Subscribers to wire to or deposit with the Escrow Agent funds of such subscribers delivered in payment for their respective Shares (the “Escrowed Funds”).

2. Acceptance. Upon receipt of the Escrowed Funds, the Escrow Agent shall acknowledge such receipt in writing to the Company and Placement Agents and shall hold and disburse the same pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to verify whether the amounts and property delivered comport with the requirements of any other agreement.
3. List of DWAC Subscribers. The Placement Agents shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Escrow Agent, at the time of each deposit of funds pursuant to Section 1, a list, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, containing the name of, the address of, the number of Shares subscribed for by, and the subscription amount delivered to the Escrow Agent on behalf of each subscriber whose funds are being deposited for each listed subscriber. The Escrow Agent shall notify the Placement Agents and the Company of any discrepancy between the subscription amounts set forth on any list delivered pursuant to this Section 3 and the subscription amounts received by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent is authorized, with the consent of the Company, not to be unreasonably withheld, to revise such list to reflect the actual subscription amounts received and the release of any subscription amounts pursuant to Section 4.
4. Withdrawal of Subscription Amounts.
(a) If the Escrow Agent shall receive a written notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto (an “Offering Termination Notice”), from the Company, the Escrow Agent shall promptly after receipt of such Offering Termination Notice, send to each subscriber listed on the list held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 3 whose total subscription amount shall not have been released pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 4, in the manner set forth in paragraph (d) of this Section 4, a check to the order of such DWAC Subscriber in the amount attributable to such DWAC Subscriber of the remaining subscription amount held by the Escrow Agent as set forth on such list held by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall notify the Company and the Placement Agents of the distribution of such funds to the DWAC Subscribers.
(b) In the event that (i) any of the Shares have been subscribed for and funds in respect thereof shall have been deposited with the Escrow Agent on or before the Closing Date and (ii) no Offering Termination Notice shall have been delivered to the Escrow Agent, the Company and the Placement Agents shall deliver to the Escrow Agent on the Closing Date a joint notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto (a “Closing Notice”), designating the date on which Shares are to be sold and delivered to the DWAC Subscribers thereof (the “Closing Date”), the proceeds of which are to be distributed on such Closing Date, and identifying the DWAC Subscribers and the number of Shares to be sold to each thereof on such Closing Date. The Escrow Agent, after receipt of such Closing Notice, shall on such Closing Date, pay to the Company and the Placement Agents, in immediately available funds and otherwise in the amounts and in the manner specified by the Company and the Placement Agents in such Closing Notice, an amount equal to the aggregate of the subscription amounts paid by the DWAC Subscribers identified in such Closing Notice for the Shares to be sold on such Closing Date as set forth on Schedule I to such Closing Notice; and
(c) If at any time and from time to time prior to the release of any DWAC Subscriber’s total subscription amount pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 4 from escrow, the Company shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto (a “Subscription Termination Notice”), to the effect that any or all of the subscriptions of such subscriber have been rejected by the Company (a “Rejected Subscription”), the Escrow Agent promptly after receipt of such Subscription Termination Notice and, if such subscriber delivered a check in payment of its Rejected Subscription, after the clearance of such check, shall send to such subscriber, in the manner set forth in paragraph (d) of this Section 4, a check to the order of such subscriber in the amount of such Rejected Subscription amount.
(d) For the purposes of this Section 4, any check that the Escrow Agent shall be required to send to any subscriber or the Company shall be sent to such subscriber or the Company by first class mail, postage prepaid, at such subscriber’s address furnished to the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 3 or the Company’s address as set forth in Section 8(b).

(c) In the event of any disagreement relating to the Escrowed Funds or the disbursement thereof resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the Escrowed Funds or in the event that Escrow Agent is in doubt as to what action it should take hereunder, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action and retain the Escrowed Funds, but only to the extent of the Escrowed Funds in controversy, until Escrow Agent shall have received (i) a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction regarding the proper disposition or (ii) a joint letter of instruction from the Company and the Placement Agents directing delivery of the Escrowed Funds, in which event Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrowed Funds in accordance with such order or letter.

If no successor shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within forty-five (45) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Escrow Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor.
(j) Any partnership or other similar entity into which the Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any partnership, corporation or other similar entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Escrow Agent shall be a party, or any partnership, corporation or other similar entity succeeding to the business of the Escrow Agent shall be the successor of the Escrow Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
(k) Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledges that the Escrow Agent acts as counsel to the Placement Agents and shall have the right to continue to represent the Placement Agents in any action, proceeding, claim, litigation, dispute, arbitration or negotiation arising hereunder, and the Company hereby consents thereto and waives any objection to the continued representation of the Placement Agents by the Escrow Agent in connection therewith based upon the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder, without waiving any duty or obligation the Escrow Agent may have to the parties under this Agreement.

Anything in this agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.
