WHEREAS, Bank desires to participate in the Program, under which, in order to cover their obligations as writers of option contracts issued by OCC, customers of Bank may from time to time deposit with Bank, in escrow, cash and/or securities, and Bank may in turn effect escrow deposits of such cash and securities with OCC (“Deposits”), and effect withdrawals or “roll overs” of such Deposits;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Bank. As of the date set forth above and subsequently upon effecting a Deposit or submitting an instruction with respect to a Deposit, Bank represents and warrants to OCC that it satisfies the following Participating Escrow Bank eligibility criteria:

a. Bank is a bank or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, or a branch of a foreign bank, in either case doing business under the laws of any state or of the United States and supervised and examined by a state or federal authority having supervision over banks or trust companies.

b. Equity attributable to all outstanding shares of capital stock issued by Bank is not less than the minimum amount specified by OCC to Bank in connection with this Agreement and set forth in such schedule or other form as OCC may make available to Bank.

c. If Bank effects any Deposit of securities under the Program, Bank is a Participant of The Depository Trust Company and, if Bank effects any Deposit of cash under the Program, Bank will establish an “approved account” at Bank for each customer participating in the Program, as described in the Program Rules, for holding such cash Deposits and will enter into an Escrow Program Tri-Party Agreement (“Tri-Party Agreement”) with OCC and each customer.

d. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor any act to be performed pursuant to this Agreement by, or on behalf of, Bank, will violate Bank’s charter, bylaws or other organizational documents, or any other material agreement which is binding upon Bank, or any provisions of law applicable to Bank.

e. This Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of Bank, enforceable against Bank in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency and equitable principles.

Bank covenants and agrees that it will continue to satisfy the foregoing Participating Escrow Bank eligibility criteria during the term of this Agreement; provided, that with respect to the eligibility criteria in Section 1.b above, Bank will maintain sufficient equity attributable to all outstanding shares of capital stock issued by Bank in an amount not less than the amount specified by OCC from time to time, provided that Bank may terminate this Agreement immediately upon the effectiveness of an increase in the capital requirement that would cause it to no longer be eligible to be a Participating Escrow Bank.

2. Compliance with and Incorporation of Program Rules. Bank shall abide by the Program Rules and shall be bound by all the provisions thereof and by all operating procedures adopted by OCC pursuant thereto, as either may be amended from time to time, including without limitation the financial requirements specified in Rule 610C(j)(8). The Program Rules shall be a part of the terms and conditions of every Deposit that may be made or maintained by Bank or any customer of Bank with OCC, while Bank is a Participating Escrow Bank.

OCC agrees to provide 60 days’ written notice prior to implementation of any amendments to the Program Rules. Bank may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to OCC within 30 days of such notification, with effectiveness as of the later of the implementation of such amendments to the Program Rules or applicable procedures or the receipt by OCC of such notice, in which case the Agreement shall nonetheless remain in effect with regard to any outstanding Deposits outstanding as of the termination date until such Deposits are withdrawn or released, provided that during such period such rule change shall not be effective with respect to such Deposits.

4. Instructions of OCC/UCC Jurisdiction. Bank agrees that it will follow disbursement directions of OCC with respect to cash included within Deposits promptly and fully without further consent by the customer. Bank shall have no duty to investigate or make any determinations as to whether OCC is entitled to give disbursement directions with respect to Deposits and shall comply with such disbursement directions without regard to the authority or lack of authority to give such disbursement directions.

Upon the occurrence of a Bank Default, OCC may terminate this Agreement immediately and disregard any existing Deposits pursuant to Rule 610C(r).

8. Access to Rules. Bank acknowledges that it has access to a copy of the Program Rules on OCC’s website and has reviewed the Program Rules as in effect at the date of this Agreement.

9. Secure Website Access Agreement. Bank’s use of OCC’s Escrow Deposit Processing System in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be governed by the Secure Website Access Agreement entered into between the Bank and OCC.

act in reliance thereon and in reliance on the instructions provided or purported to be provided by an Authorized Person

or its designee. When practicable, Bank shall provide to OCC notice of any change of Authorized Persons or other

relevant information, such as addresses or telephone numbers, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the effective date of

such change. If it is impracticable for Bank to give OCC fifteen (15) days' prior notice of any such change, Bank shall

give OCC as much prior notice thereof as is practicable in the circumstances. Until OCC receives notice of any change of

Authorized Persons, OCC shall be authorized to rely on instructions provided or believed by OCC in good faith to be

provided by any Authorized Person listed on the most current Authorized Signature List.

III. ESCROW TRANSACTIONS

8. Confirmation of Escrow Deposits.

Upon agreeing with a customer to hold cash and/or securities as an escrow deposit, the Bank shall submit

an online deposit Instruction to OCC. A deposit Instruction shall specify such information as OCC may from time to

time prescribe in its escrow deposit program operations manual.

9. Rollover of Escrow Deposit.

Upon being instructed by a customer to "roll over" an escrow deposit to cover a short position other than the

short position previously covered by such deposit, the Bank shall submit an on-line rollover Instruction to OCC. A

roll-over Instruction shall specify such information as OCC may from time to time prescribe in its escrow deposit

program operations manual and shall be subject to approval by the Clearing Member carrying the relevant short

position. Rollover Instructions shall not be submitted after expiration of the contract covered by the escrow deposit.

Any rollover Instructions submitted after expiration of the contract will be disregarded and eliminated from OCC's

Escrow Deposit Processing System.

10. Withdrawal of Escrow Deposit Before Expiration.

Prior to being released as provided in Section 14 below, an escrow deposit made in accordance with this

Agreement may be withdrawn by the Clearing Member carrying the short position covered by the deposit, or, with

the approval of such Clearing Member, by the Bank for the account of such Clearing Member through submission of

an online escrow withdrawal instruction to OCC.

11. On-Line Transaction and Inquiry Reports.

On each business day, OCC shall make available to the Bank and to each OCC Clearing Member on-line

reports listing all escrow deposit, rollover, and withdrawal instructions submitted to OCC on that business day with

respect to escrow deposits held by the Bank for such Clearing Member, and the net premiums (if any) specified by the

initiating party as payable to or by the Bank in connection with each such instruction. Except as otherwise provided in this

Agreement, instructions not involving premium payments shall be executed without further action by the Bank or the

Clearing Member. Instructions involving premium payments ("Valued Instructions") shall be executed only with the

approval of the non-initiating party. At or before such time as OCC shall prescribe on the business day on which a

Valued Instruction is submitted, the non-initiating party may approve or reject such instruction through electronic means

prescribed by OCC for such purpose. If a Valued Instruction is rejected or is not approved by such time as OCC shall

prescribe on the business day on which it is submitted, the instruction shall be disregarded and eliminated from OCC's

Escrow Deposit Processing System.

12. On-Line Escrow Settlement Reports.

At or before 9:00 A.M. (Central Time) on each business day, OCC shall make available to the Bank an on-line

escrow settlement report listing all deposit, rollover, and withdrawal instructions involving the Bank from the previous

business day's on-line escrow activity, other than Valued Instructions that were not approved. All instructions listed on the

escrow settlement report shall be deemed to have been executed by OCC as of the opening of business on that

business day, except to the extent that OCC notifies the Bank that it has rejected one or more instructions pursuant to

Section 18 hereof.

13. Reserved.

14. Release of Escrow Deposits on Expiration.

Any escrow deposit made in accordance with this Agreement in respect of equity options shall be released by

OCC on its own initiative at 6:00 P.M. (Central Time) on the first business day after the exercise settlement date for the

short position covered by the deposit, unless (i) OCC has received notice from National Securities Clearing Corporation

or any successor thereto (“NSCC”) indicating that the settlement obligations in respect of such short position have not

been met by the Clearing Member carrying such short position or the member of NSCC effecting settlements of

exercises and assignments on such Clearing Member's behalf, in which case the deposit shall not be released until the

first business day after OCC receives confirmation that it shall have no obligations in respect of the short position, or (ii) if

OCC has directed that the exercise be settled otherwise than through NSCC, until OCC receives confirmation that

settlement has been made and notifies the Bank, in accordance with the terms hereof, that the deposit is released. Any

escrow deposit made in accordance with this Agreement in respect of index options shall be released by OCC on its own

initiative at 6:00 P.M. (Central Time) on the exercise settlement date, unless the Clearing Member carrying such short

position is not in full compliance with its settlement obligations in the account in which such deposit is held.

15. Maintenance of Settlement Account.

If the Bank desires to enter escrow deposit or withdrawal Instructions involving premium payments, the Bank shall

maintain an account ("Settlement Account") with a bank approved by OCC in accordance with its Rules as a Clearing

Bank, for the purpose of accommodating cash settlements hereunder between the Bank and Clearing Members of OCC. If

the Bank is itself a Clearing Bank, the Bank shall designate a proprietary account to be used for that purpose. The Bank

shall authorize OCC to make deposits to its Settlement Account or withdraw funds from its Settlement Account for the

purposes hereinafter set forth.

16. Cash Settlement Procedures.

Any on-line escrow deposit or escrow rollover Instruction may specify any net premium payable to the Bank in

connection therewith. Any on-line escrow withdrawal Instruction may specify any net premium payable by the Bank in

connection therewith. Subject to the provisions of Sections 18 and 19 hereof, OCC shall act as agent for the Bank and

for Clearing Members of OCC in effecting settlement of such premium payment obligations, as hereinafter provided.

(a) At or before 9:00 A.M. (Central Time) on each business day, OCC shall:

(1) withdraw from the Bank's Settlement Account an amount equal to the net

premium, if any, shown on that day's on-line escrow settlement report as

payable by the Bank to Clearing Members of OCC (in the aggregate) in

connection with escrow deposits, rollovers, and withdrawals; and

(2) charge the regular OCC settlement account of each Clearing Member with an

amount equal to the net premiums, if any, shown on that day's on-line escrow

settlement report as payable by that Clearing Member to the Bank.

(b) At or before 10:00 A.M. (Central Time) on each business day, OCC shall:

(1) deposit in the Bank's Settlement Account an amount equal to the net premiums,

if any, shown on that day's on-line escrow settlement report as payable to the

Bank by Clearing Members of OCC (in the aggregate) in connection with escrow

deposits, rollovers, and withdrawals; and

(2) credit the regular OCC settlement account of each Clearing Member with an

amount equal to the net premium, if any, shown on that day's on-line escrow

settlement report as payable to that Clearing Member by the Bank.

It is understood and agreed that in facilitating cash settlements between the Bank and Clearing Members as provided

herein, OCC shall act solely as agent for the parties to each settlement, and shall have no obligation (except such

obligations as it may expressly assume pursuant to Section 18 hereof) to credit or deposit to the account of any party

funds not collected from the other party as provided above.

17. Cash-Only Entries.

Errors made by the Bank or a Clearing Member in specifying the premium due in connection with any escrow

deposit, escrow rollover, or escrow withdrawal may be corrected by the submission to OCC, either by the party who

made the error or by the other party, of an on-line cash-only entries instruction. Cash-only entries instructions shall be

subject to being rejected or disregarded in the same manner as escrow deposit activity. Each daily settlement provided

for in Section 16 hereof shall include any cash-only entries instructions initiated by or directed to the Bank which are

shown on that day's escrow settlement report. Cash-only entries shall be used solely for the purpose of correcting errors

made by the Bank or a Clearing Member in connection with escrow deposits, rollovers, and withdrawals, and for no other

purpose.

18. Defaults by Clearing Members.

(a) If a Clearing Member fails to meet its settlement obligations with OCC on any business day, OCC

shall have the option of accepting or rejecting any escrow withdrawal by such Clearing Member that would otherwise

become effective on such business day. If OCC rejects a withdrawal for which moneys are payable by the Bank to the

Clearing Member, the settlement amount payable to or by the Bank on that business day shall be adjusted accordingly.

(b) If a Clearing Member fails to meet its settlement obligations with OCC on a day on which moneys are

payable by the Clearing Member to the Bank through the facilities of OCC in respect of escrow deposits or rollovers

(whether or not such moneys net out against moneys payable by the Bank to the Clearing Member or other Clearing

Members on the same day), OCC shall have the option of accepting or rejecting each deposit or rollover for which

moneys are payable by the Clearing Member to the Bank. If OCC accepts a deposit or rollover, it shall credit to the

Bank's Settlement account, on behalf of the Clearing Member, the premium payable by the Clearing Member to the Bank

in respect thereof. If OCC rejects a deposit or rollover, the settlement amount payable to or by the Bank on that business

day shall be adjusted accordingly, and the Bank shall have no further responsibility to OCC in respect of such deposit or

rollover (but shall continue, in the case of a rollover, to be obligated to OCC in respect of the previous escrow deposit

sought to be rolled over). The Bank's rights against OCC in the event of a default by a Clearing Member shall be limited

to the right to require OCC to elect one of the foregoing options, and in no event shall the Bank have the right to offset

against its settlement obligations hereunder any premiums payable to the Bank by the defaulting Clearing Member in

respect of escrow deposits or rollovers rejected by OCC as provided above. If a Clearing Member meets its settlement

obligations to OCC in part, any funds collected by OCC shall be applied first to the Clearing Member's obligations to

OCC, and only the excess, if any, shall be applied against the Clearing Member's obligations to the Bank. In the event

that any excess is so applied, it shall be deemed to have been applied first against the Clearing Member's obligations

to the Bank in respect of cash-only entries, and second against the Clearing Member's obligations in respect of escrow

deposits and rollovers. If the excess is insufficient to cover the Clearing Member's obligations in respect of escrow

deposits and rollovers, OCC shall designate the particular deposits and rollovers for which payment shall be deemed to

have been made, and shall elect one of the options referred to in the first sentence of this Section 18(b) with respect to

any escrow deposit or rollover for which payment is not deemed to have been made. Except to the extent that OCC

elects to accept deposits or rollovers as provided above, OCC shall have no responsibility to the Bank for any

premiums payable to the Bank by a defaulting Clearing Member.

OCC to the Bank prior to 12:00 Noon (Central Time) on the date of the Clearing Member's default, or as soon as

practicable thereafter; and, if not initially communicated by telegram or in writing, shall be confirmed by telegram or

in writing promptly thereafter.

(d) If the Bank shall at any time be advised by OCC that a Clearing Member has defaulted in meeting

its settlement obligations with OCC (whether or not on a day on which moneys were payable to the Bank by such

Clearing Member hereunder), the Bank shall, at OCC's request, disclose to OCC the identity of each customer for

whom the Bank is holding an escrow deposit made by the Bank for the account of the defaulting Clearing Member.

19. Default by Bank.

If the Bank shall fail to meet its settlement obligations hereunder on any business day, OCC shall nonetheless

accept any escrow rollovers or withdrawals for which settlement was to have been made by the Bank (provided that the

affected Clearing Members would be in compliance with their margin obligations after giving effect thereto), but such

acceptance shall not prejudice or impair such rights as such Clearing Members may have against the Bank or its

customers. OCC shall in no event have any responsibility to any Clearing Member for premiums payable by the

Bank hereunder.

20. Effect of Release or Withdrawal of Escrow Deposit.

The release of an escrow deposit by OCC or the withdrawal of an escrow deposit from OCC in accordance

with the provisions of this Agreement shall have the effect of releasing any and all rights of OCC against the Bank with

respect to the deposit. Subject (in the case of a withdrawal) to Section 19 hereof, such release or withdrawal shall also

release any and all rights of the Clearing Member for whose account the escrow deposit was made provided, however,

that if any on-line report referred to in Section 11 above indicates that an exercise notice has been allocated to a short

position covered by an escrow deposit that is being withdrawn or released, the Bank shall be prohibited from returning

the deposit to the Customer and shall remain obligated (i) as to any stock option escrow deposit, to deliver to the

Clearing Member for whose account the deposit was made (x) in the case of a deposit made in respect of one or more

calls, the underlying securities deposited against payment of the aggregate exercise price of the call(s) covered by such

deposit (less all applicable commissions and other charges), upon presentation by the Clearing Member of a duly

executed delivery order in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, or (y) in the case of a deposit made in respect of one

or more puts, the aggregate exercise price of the put(s) covered by such deposit (plus all applicable commissions and

other charges) against delivery of the underlying securities, upon presentation by the Clearing Member of a duly

executed payment order in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, or (ii) as to any index option escrow deposit, to pay

to the Clearing Member the exercise settlement amount (plus any applicable commissions or other charges) upon

presentation by the Clearing Member of a duly executed payment order in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. The

release or withdrawal of an escrow deposit as provided herein shall not affect the rights of any Broker specified in the

Instruction by which the deposit was made, and the Bank shall not return the deposit, or any portion thereof, to its

customer without first having been authorized to do so by such Broker.

21. Delivery or Payment by the Bank.

(a) Upon presentation of a duly executed delivery order (which shall constitute an "entitlement order" for

purposes of the 1994 revision of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A

relating to escrow deposits held by the Bank hereunder covering equity call options carried in a short position:

(1) by OCC at any time prior to the release or withdrawal of the escrow deposit, or

(2) at any time after the release or withdrawal of the escrow deposit,

(i) by the Clearing Member for whose account the escrow deposit was made

(provided that such Clearing Member's rights have not theretofore been

released pursuant to Section 20 hereof), or

(ii) by the Broker, if any, specified in the Instruction by which the deposit was made

(provided that such Broker has not theretofore authorized the Bank to return the

deposit, or any portion thereof, to its customer), with the consent of the

aforesaid Clearing Member endorsed on such delivery order;

the Bank will deliver all or any part of the deposit to the order of the party presenting the delivery order, against

payment to the Bank of the exercise price of the call(s) covered by the deposit to be delivered, less all applicable

commissions and other charges.

(b) Upon presentation of a duly executed payment order (which shall constitute an "entitlement order" for

purposes of the 1994 revision of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B

relating to escrow deposits held by the Bank hereunder covering equity put options or index put or call options

carried in a short position:

(1) by OCC at any time prior to the release or withdrawal of the escrow deposit, or

(2) at any time after the release or withdrawal of the escrow deposit,

(i) by the Clearing Member for whose account the escrow deposit was made

(provided that such Clearing Member's rights have not theretofore been

released pursuant to Section 20 hereof), or

(ii) by the Broker, if any, specified in the Instruction by which the deposit was made

(provided that such Broker has not theretofore authorized the Bank to return the

deposit, or any portion thereof, to its customer), with the consent of the aforesaid

9. Secure Website Access Agreement. Bank’s use of OCC’s Escrow Deposit Processing System in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be governed by the Secure Website Access Agreement entered into between the Bank and OCC.

Clearing Member endorsed on such payment order;

the Bank will pay in cash to the order of the party presenting the payment order, out of the deposit or its proceeds, the amount

specified in such payment order. If Paragraph A is marked in such payment order, such payment shall be made against delivery to

the Bank of the securities underlying the number of exercised put option contracts specified in the payment order.

IV. MISCELLANEOUS

22. Forc e Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for any delay in delivery or payment for nondelivery or nonpayment, in whole or in part, caused

by the occurrence of any contingency beyond the control of such party, including, but not limited to, work stoppages, fires, civil

disobedience, riot, rebellion, accident, explosion, flood, storm, Acts of God, power failures, equipment malfunctions, and similar

occurrences.

Notwithstanding the above, if unusual or unforeseen conditions (including but not limited to power failures or equipment

applicable cut-off time, OCC may in its discretion (i) require that such items be provided by other approved means, including the use

of hard copy forms, and/or (ii) extend the applicable cut-off time by such period as OCC deems reasonable, practicable and equitable

under the circumstances
