ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated November 13th,
2009 made by and among GMS Capital Corp. and Gilles Poliquin, Attorney. (the
“Escrow Agent”).

    


    The
Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities &
Exchange Commission pursuant to which it intends to conduct a public offering
(the “Offering”) of its shares of common stock.

     

    The
completion of the Offering is subject to the Company receiving minimum aggregate
subscriptions for 250,000 shares of common stock in the capital of the Company
at a price of $0.20 (the “Minimum Offering”).

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements and understandings contemplated in
the Stock Purchase Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     

    1.           Escrow
Deposit. Upon the Effective Date, the Company may accept subscriptions
for its shares of common stock from qualified investors.  The Company
and the subscription agreement that it provides to prospective investors shall
instruct all subscribers (each a “Subscriber”) to make their checks, bank drafts
or money orders for the purchase of such shares payable to the Escrow Agent in
trust and to deliver such payment, along with an executed subscription agreement
to the Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent shall deposit all subscription
funds received into a non-interest bearing attorney’s trust
account.

     

    2.           Release
of Funds to Subscribers. If the Company does not complete the Minimum
Offering within 365 days from the Effective Date, the Escrow Agent shall
forthwith return each subscriber’s respective subscription funds.

     

    3.           Release
of Funds to Company.  If the Company completes the Minimum
Offering within 365 days from the Effective Date and provides the Escrow Agent
with certificates representing the shares of common stock subscribed for by the
Subscribers, the Escrow Agent shall forthwith release the subscription funds to
the Company.

     

    4.           Provisions
with Respect to the Escrow Agent.

     

    (a)           Protection of the Escrow
Agent.  The Escrow Agent and the Company agree that: (i) the
Escrow Agent’s duties and responsibilities shall be limited to those expressly
set forth in this Agreement, and the Escrow Agent shall not be subject to, nor
obliged to recognize, any other agreement between, or direction or instruction
of, any or all of the parties hereto; provided, however, that this Agreement may
be amended at any time or times in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) no
assignment of the interest of either the Company or a Subscriber shall be
permitted, nor shall any purported assignment be binding upon the Escrow
Agent;  (iii) if the Escrow Deposit is attached, garnished, or levied
upon under the order of any court, or the delivery thereof shall be stayed or
enjoined by the order of any court, or any other order, judgment or decree shall
be made or entered by any court affecting the subscription funds, the Escrow
Agent is hereby expressly authorized to obey and comply with all writs, orders
or decrees so entered or issued, whether with or without jurisdiction; the
Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or their
successors by reason of compliance with any such writ, order or decree
notwithstanding such writ, order or decree being subsequently reversed,
modified, annulled, set aside or vacated; (iv) in case the Escrow Agent becomes
involved in litigation in connection with this Agreement, it shall have the
right to retain counsel, and shall be indemnified by the Company for all
reasonable and necessary costs, attorneys’ fees, charges, disbursements and
expenses in connection with such litigation.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

       

    

    (b)           New Escrow
Agent.  The Escrow Agent reserves the right to resign at any
time by giving at least 30-days advance written notice of resignation to the
Company and each Subscriber, specifying the effective date thereof. Within 30
days after receiving the aforesaid notice, the Company agrees to appoint a
successor escrow agent. If a successor escrow agent has not been appointed and
has not accepted such appointment by the end of the 30-day period commencing
upon the receipt of the notice of resignation by the Company and the
Subscribers, the Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor escrow agent, and the costs, expenses and
reasonable attorneys’ fees which the Escrow Agent incurs in connection with such
a proceeding shall be the responsibility of the Company.

     

     (c)           Indemnification.  Without
limiting any protection or indemnity of the Escrow Agent under any other
provision hereof, or otherwise at law, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from and against any and all liabilities,
losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, suits, costs, expenses and
disbursements, including reasonable legal or advisor fees and disbursements, of
whatever kind and nature which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against the Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its
duties and obligations hereunder, other than such liabilities, losses, damages,
penalties, claims, actions, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements arising by
reason of the gross negligence or fraud of the Escrow Agent. This provision
shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent, or the termination
of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not be under any obligation to
prosecute or to defend any action or suit in respect of the relationship which,
in the opinion of its counsel, may involve its expense or liability, unless the
Company shall, so often as required, furnish the Escrow Agent with satisfactory
indemnity and funding against such expense or liability.
