2006 among SACO TECHNOLOGIES INC., a corporation incorporated under the Canada
Business Corporation Act, (“Saco”), LSI INDUSTRIES INC., an Ohio corporation
(“LSI”), and THE BANK OF NEW YORK TRUST COMPANY, N.A., as escrow agent (the
“Escrow Agent”).

BACKGROUND

WHEREAS, LSI, Saco and certain Affiliates of Saco have entered into a Stock
Purchase Agreement dated as of even date herewith (the “Purchase Agreement”)
pursuant to which LSI has purchased all of the issued and outstanding stock of
4349466 Canada, Inc., a corporation incorporated under the Canada Business
Corporation Act;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, LSI and Saco have
agreed that One Million Four Hundred and Nineteen Thousand Three Hundred Fifty
Five (1,419,355) LSI Common Shares (the “Escrow Shares”) issued to Saco pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement shall be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of this
Escrow Agreement to be released, subject to the terms of this Escrow Agreement,
on or before September 30, 2008, and to serve, in the interim, as security for
the “Sellers’” and the “Shareholders’” obligations under the Purchase Agreement;
and

WHEREAS, in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement, Escrow
Agent is designated to act as the escrow agent for the parties hereto under the
terms of this Escrow Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth below and
other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Designation and Delivery. LSI and Saco hereby designate The Bank of New York
Trust Company, N.A. as “Escrow Agent” under this Escrow Agreement. LSI and Saco
have delivered to the Escrow Agent a copy of the Purchase Agreement, which
agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A. LSI, in accordance with the terms of
Section 2.2 of the Purchase Agreement, hereby delivers to the Escrow Agent
certificates in the name of Saco evidencing the Escrow Shares (the “Deposit”).
Saco hereby delivers to the Escrow Agent duly executed stock powers of Saco
covering the Escrow Shares (the “Stock Transfer Powers”).

2. Cash Portion of Escrow Fund. The Escrow Agent shall cause all stock
dividends, distributions in the form of securities (including shares distributed
in a stock split), proceeds from any sale or liquidation, or other income
(excluding cash dividends) earned on or with respect to the Escrow Shares and
received by the Escrow Agent, to be added to the Deposit. Such deposited
dividends, distributions or other income, together with the Deposit, shall
constitute the “Escrow Fund” to be distributed as provided in Section 7 hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any and all cash dividends earned on or with
respect to the Escrow Shares and received by the Escrow Agent prior to the
receipt by Escrow Agent of any Notice of Claim shall be paid promptly to Saco
and shall not become part of the Escrow Fund; provided further, after the
receipt by Escrow Agent of any Notice of Claim, all cash dividends earned on or
with respect to the Escrow Shares received by the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Escrow Agent shall be added to the Deposit. Upon written request of Saco, the
Escrow Agent shall sell all or a portion of the Escrow Shares pursuant to
instructions providing the number of Escrow Shares to be sold and any other
conditions applicable to the sale of such Escrow Shares. The proceeds of such
sale shall become part of the Escrow Fund to be distributed as provided in
Section 7 hereof. The Escrow Agent will invest the cash portion of the Escrow
Fund that are not distributed pursuant to the terms of this Escrow Agreement in
money market funds rated AAA or better which are authorized to invest in short
term securities issued, or guaranteed as to principal and interest, by the U.S.
Government and repurchase agreements with respect to such securities (including
any money market fund managed by the Escrow Agent and any of its affiliates)
(collectively, the “Permitted Investments”) as directed by Saco in writing.

3. Escrow Agent as Custodian; Expenses. The Escrow Agent, for all purposes of
this Escrow Agreement, shall be treated as and considered legally a custodian.
Except as otherwise provided herein and in the Purchase Agreement, Saco shall
retain all of its rights as a stockholder of LSI while the Escrow Shares are
held in escrow hereunder, including the right to vote such Escrow Shares. The
Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon the written notice
provided in Section 7 and may assume the genuineness of all signatures and
documents and the authority of all signatories. Except for its obligation to
keep the Escrow Fund safely in its custody (subject to the terms and provisions
of this Agreement), the Escrow Agent shall have no liability except for gross
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of its duties under this
Escrow Agreement for any action taken (or any failure to act) in good faith.

4. Escrow Account Statements. The Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to execute
purchases and sales of Permitted Investments through the facilities of its own
trading or capital markets operations or those of any affiliated entity. The
Escrow Agent shall send statements to LSI and Saco on a monthly basis reflecting
activity in the Escrow Fund for the preceding month. In doing so, the Escrow
Agent may provide a statement containing information regarding any deposits and
disbursements and a separate statement reflecting the investment detail,
including the balance, purchases, sales, and interest postings. However, absent
a specific request by either LSI or Saco to the contrary, no statement need be
rendered pursuant to this Escrow Agreement if no activity occurred for such
month. LSI and Saco each acknowledge and agree that the delivery of the escrowed
property is subject to the sale and final settlement of investments described
herein. Proceeds of a sale of investments will be delivered on the business day
on which the appropriate instructions are delivered to the Escrow Agent if
received prior to the deadline for same day sale of such investments. If such
instructions are received after the applicable deadline, proceeds will be
delivered on the next succeeding business day.

5. Compensation of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to
reasonable fees and reimbursement for reasonable expenses including, but not by
way of limitation, the reasonable fees and costs of attorneys or agents which it
may find necessary to engage in performance of its duties hereunder, in
accordance with the fee schedule attached hereto as Exhibit B; provided,
however, that the Escrow Agent shall, to the extent practicable, give reasonable
prior written notice of its intention to engage counsel to Saco and LSI. Such
fees and expenses shall, to the extent required to be paid at the Closing, be
paid, at the Closing, and any remaining amounts shall be invoiced on an annual
basis and, in each case, shall be paid one-half by LSI and one-half by Saco. The
Escrow Agent shall have, and is hereby granted, a prior lien upon any property,
cash, or

 

2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

assets of the Escrow Fund, with respect to its unpaid fees and nonreimbursed
expenses, superior to the interests of any other persons or entities, and shall
be entitled and is hereby granted the right to set off and deduct any unpaid
fees and/or nonreimbursed expenses from amounts on deposit in the Escrow Fund.

6. Resignation; Disagreements.

(a) The Escrow Agent may resign from all further duties and liabilities
hereunder as escrow agent by giving to Saco and LSI written notice of such
resignation at least 60 days prior to the effective date thereof, or such
shorter notice as Saco and LSI may accept as sufficient. Saco and LSI shall have
the power by mutual agreement at any time to remove the Escrow Agent and to
appoint a new escrow agent. In the event of the Escrow Agent’s resignation or
removal as aforesaid, Saco and LSI may appoint a new escrow agent, and, failing
such appointment, the retiring escrow agent may apply to any court of competent
jurisdiction in the State of New York for the appointment of a new escrow agent.
Upon the appointment of a new escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall transfer the
Escrow Fund to such new escrow agent.

(b) In the event of any disagreement between the other parties hereto resulting
in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the Escrow Fund or in
the event that Escrow Agent is in doubt as to what action it should take
hereunder, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to (i) interplead all of the assets
held hereunder into a court of competent jurisdiction, and thereafter be fully
relieved from any and all liability or obligation with respect to such
interpleaded assets or (ii) retain the Escrow Fund until Escrow Agent shall have
received (A) a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction
directing delivery of the Escrow Fund, or (B) a written agreement executed by
both Saco and LSI hereto directing delivery of the Escrow Fund, in which event
Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Fund in accordance with such order or
agreement. Any court order shall be accompanied by a legal opinion by counsel
for the party seeking distribution of the Escrow Fund satisfactory to Escrow
Agent to the effect that the order is final and non-appealable. Escrow Agent
shall act on such court order and legal opinion without further question or
delay.

7. Termination and Distribution of Escrow Fund.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 7(d), this Escrow Agreement shall terminate
upon the earlier of (i) September 30, 2008 or (ii) the date upon which the
Escrow Agent shall have distributed all of the Escrow Fund as provided herein.

(b) If, on or prior to September 30, 2008, LSI shall not have delivered to the
Escrow Agent and Saco a Notice of Claim (as defined in Section 7(g)below), with
respect to the Escrow Fund, the Escrow Fund shall be promptly released and
delivered in its entirety to Saco by the Escrow Agent.

(c) If, on or prior to September 30, 2008, LSI shall have delivered a Notice of
Claim to the Escrow Agent and Saco, and Saco shall not have disputed the Notice
of Claim

 

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in writing within 15 business days after its receipt of the Notice of Claim, the
amount of the indemnity claim specified in LSI’s Notice of Claim shall promptly
be released and delivered to LSI by the Escrow Agent. For purposes of
determining the number of Escrow Shares to be released to LSI pursuant to this
Section 7(c) in satisfaction of indemnity claims and the amount received by LSI
in satisfaction of the indemnity claims, the value of the Escrow Shares shall be
based upon the average of the closing sale price of LSI’s common stock as
reported on the NASDAQ National Market System (or such other market where LSI
Common Shares may then be traded) for the 5 trading days immediately preceding
the second trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Escrow Shares
(or portion thereof) are released. The balance of the Escrow Fund not so
released shall continue to be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the
terms of this Escrow Agreement.

(d) If, on or prior to September 30, 2008, LSI shall have delivered a Notice of
Claim to Saco and the Escrow Agent and Saco shall have disputed the Notice of
Claim in writing within 15 business days after its receipt of the Notice of
Claim, the Escrow Agent shall retain that portion of the Escrow Fund equal to
the amount of the indemnity claim specified in the Notice of Claim until the
dispute is resolved by a final, binding and non-appealable order of a court of
competent jurisdiction or by agreement between LSI and Saco even if the
resolution of the dispute occurs after September 30, 2008 and shall distribute
the portion so retained either pursuant to joint written instructions from LSI
and Saco or pursuant to such court order. For purposes of determining the number
of Escrow Shares to be retained under this Section 7(d) and Section 7(e) by the
Escrow Agent upon receipt of the Notice of Claim, the value of the Escrow Shares
shall be based upon the average of the closing sale price of LSI’s common stock
as reported on the NASDAQ National Market System (or other applicable market)
for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the second trading day
immediately preceding the date on which the Escrow Agent receives notice from
Saco that the Notice of Claim is being disputed.

(e) On each of the dates set forth below, the Escrow Agent shall release such
number of LSI Common Shares constituting Escrow Shares set forth opposite such
date (each, a “Release Date”):

 

Release Date

  

Escrow Shares

to be Released

September 30, 2006

   419,355

September 30, 2007

   500,000

September 30, 2008

   500,000

; provided, however, if a Notice of Claim has been delivered to the Escrow Agent
prior to the applicable Release Date the Escrow Agent shall release only those
number of Escrow Shares less (i) the number of Escrow Shares equal to the amount
of indemnity claims specified in any and all Notice of Claims delivered to the
Escrow Agent prior to the applicable Release

 

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Date and (ii) the number of Escrow Shares previously released to Saco pursuant
to Section 7(f). Once the dispute is resolved by a final, binding and
non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction or by agreement
between LSI and Saco, the Escrow Agent shall distribute to Saco the portion of
the Escrow Fund equal to the amount of indemnity claims specified in any and all
Notice of Claims delivered to the Escrow Agent prior to the applicable Release
Date, less the amount which is finally determined as due and owing to LSI.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Escrow Agreement to the contrary, if at any
time prior to September 30, 2008, LSI concludes, based on the determination of
LSI’s Board of Directors, after consulting with legal counsel and other experts
retained by LSI, that no claim for indemnification by any Indemnified LSI Party
is likely to arise out of the Sellers’ or the Company’s infringement upon,
misappropriation of, or conflict with the Intellectual Property rights of third
parties, LSI shall give written notice to the Escrow Agent of such determination
and authorize the release of the entire amount of the Escrow Fund, except for
290,000 LSI Common Shares which such amount shall remain subject to the terms of
this Escrow Agreement until September 30, 2008.

(g) For purposes of this Escrow Agreement, a “Notice of Claim” is a written
notice by LSI to Escrow Agent, with a copy thereof to Saco, stating (i) that LSI
is asserting a claim for indemnification in respect of the Escrow Fund against
the Sellers and/or the Shareholders pursuant to the indemnification provisions
contained in the Purchase Agreement, (ii) the nature of the claim, and
(iii) LSI’s reasonable estimate of the amount of damages expected to be incurred
in conjunction with the claim for which indemnification is available to LSI
under the Purchase Agreement.

(h) Any release or disbursement of Escrow Shares in accordance with this
Section 7 shall be made by delivering the share certificates representing such
Escrow Shares to the designated party. In the event of disbursement to LSI, the
Escrow Agent shall also deliver to LSI an appropriate Stock Transfer Power,
completed with the amount of Escrow Shares being disbursed to LSI. Upon receipt
thereof, LSI shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, as soon as practicable
thereafter, new share certificates relating to the balance of Escrow Shares
remaining in the hands of the Escrow Agent. Saco hereby appoints the Escrow
Agent, as Saco’s attorney-in-fact to act, in the name, place and stead of Saco
to (i) execute and complete additional Stock Transfer Powers, (ii) to take any
actions or exercising any rights, powers or privileges that Saco is entitled or
required to take or exercise under the terms of any of this Escrow Agreement and
(iii) to do or cause to be done any or all things necessary or, in the
determination of the Escrow Agent, desirable to observe or perform the terms,
conditions, covenants and agreements to be observed or performed by Saco to
transfer Saco’s right, title and interest in and to the LSI Common Shares.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, a disbursement of any Escrow Shares to
LSI shall, if accompanied by delivery of the share certificates, be valid and
shall have full force and effect even in the absence of delivery of Stock
Transfer Powers to LSI. Any disbursement of Escrow Shares to LSI shall be deemed
to be a redemption of such Escrow Shares.

 

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(i) If LSI at any time or from time to time effects a stock-split,
reclassification, reorganization, reverse reclassification, or other change in
the number of outstanding number of LSI Common Shares into a larger or smaller
number of shares, the number of Escrow Shares to be released pursuant to
Section 7 shall be proportionately adjusted.

(j) Notwithstanding any obligation of the Escrow Agent to disburse Escrow Shares
to LSI pursuant to this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent is hereby authorized
by Saco and LSI to sell any Escrow Shares to any third party on commercially
reasonable terms and conditions and remit to the LSI, instead of the Escrow
Shares to which LSI is entitled, the consideration received by the Escrow Agent
with respect to such shares; provided that the Escrow Agent shall have received
from counsel to LSI a legal opinion providing that such sale is registered or
exempt from registration under applicable securities laws.

(k) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the delivery of the proceeds
of the sale of Escrow Shares is subject to the sale and final settlement of such
Escrow Shares. Proceeds of a sale of Escrow Shares will be delivered on the
business day on which the sale of such Shares is settled. If written
instructions to sell Escrow Shares are received by the Escrow Agent pursuant to
Section 2 after the applicable deadline on a Business Day, such Escrow Shares
will be sold (to the extent commercially reasonable) on the next succeeding
Business Day. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any losses incurred
due to market price fluctuations occurring between the time of receipt by the
Escrow Agent of a written instruction to sell Escrow Shares and the time of the
actual sale of such Escrow Shares, provided that such sale takes place within a
reasonable time.

8. Duties of Escrow Agent. The duties of the Escrow Agent under this Escrow
Agreement shall be entirely administrative and, except for a breach of its
obligation to keep the Escrow Fund safely in its custody (subject, however, to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement), the Escrow Agent shall not be
liable to any third party as a result of any action or omission taken or made by
it in performing its duties hereunder, if taken in good faith, except for gross
negligence, willful misconduct or fraud. LSI and Saco shall severally (each
being responsible for 50% of the indemnity amount claimed by the Escrow Agent)
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from and against and
reimburse the Escrow Agent for any and all liability, costs and expenses the
Escrow Agent may suffer or incur by reason of its execution and performance of
this Escrow Agreement except to the extent caused by or arising out of Escrow
Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud or except for a failure to
comply with its obligation to keep the Escrow Fund in its custody (subject,
however, to the terms and conditions of this Agreement). The Escrow Agent shall
have no duties except those which are expressly set forth herein, and, except as
otherwise expressly set forth herein, it shall not be bound by any notice of a
claim, or demand with respect thereto, or any waiver, modification, amendment,
termination or rescission of this Escrow Agreement, unless in writing received
by it and signed by the parties hereto and otherwise conforming to any
requirements contained herein.

If the Escrow Agent shall find it necessary to consult with counsel of its own
choosing in connection with this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall not
incur any liability for any action taken in good faith in accordance with such
advice except to the extent caused by or arising out of Escrow Agent’s gross
negligence, willful misconduct or fraud or except for a failure to comply with

 

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

its obligation to keep the Escrow Funds in its custody (subject, however, to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement). The foregoing indemnification shall
survive termination of this Escrow Agreement.

Escrow Agent is not a party to, and is not bound by, any other agreements with
the parties hereto regarding the subject matter hereof. In the event that any of
the terms and provisions of any other agreement (excluding any amendment to this
Escrow Agreement) between any of the parties hereto, conflict or are
inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement, the terms and
provisions of this Escrow Agreement shall govern and control in all respects.

The Escrow Agent shall neither be responsible for, nor chargeable with,
knowledge of the terms and conditions of any other agreement, instrument or
document between the other parties hereto, in connection herewith, including
without limitation the Purchase Agreement. This Agreement sets forth all matters
pertinent to the escrow contemplated hereunder, and no additional obligations of
the Escrow Agent shall be inferred from the terms of this Agreement or any other
agreement. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ESCROW AGENT BE LIABLE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY,
FOR ANY (i) DAMAGES OR EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER,
OTHER THAN DAMAGES WHICH RESULT FROM THE ESCROW AGENT’S FAILURE TO ACT IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE STANDARDS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, OR (ii) SPECIAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF THE ESCROW AGENT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

The Escrow Agent shall have the right to perform any of its duties hereunder
through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees.

Any banking association or corporation into which the Escrow Agent may be
merged, converted or with which the Escrow Agent may be consolidated, or any
corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Escrow Agent shall be a party, or any banking association or corporation to
which all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Escrow
Agent shall be transferred, shall succeed to all the Escrow Agent’s rights,
obligations and immunities hereunder without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
