to be credited, and the Escrow Agent is willing to establish the Escrow Account and the terms are subject to the conditions hereinafter
set forth;


 


WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent has an agreement
with JP Morgan Chase Bank NA to establish a special Bank Account (the “Bank Account”) into which the subscription
monies, which are received by the Escrow Agent from prospective purchasers and credited to the Escrow Account, are to be deposited;


 


NOW,
THEREFORE in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:


 





	1	Information Sheet. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning set forth for such term on the information sheet which is attached to this Agreement and is incorporated by reference herein and made a pact hereof (the “Information Sheet”).




 


	2	Establishment of the Bank Account.




 


	2.1.	The
    Escrow Agent shall establish a non-interest bank account at a branch of JP Morgan Chase Bank NA selected by the Escrow Agent,
    and bearing the designation set forth on the Information Sheet (heretofore defined as the “Bank Account”). The
    purpose of the Bank Account is for (a) the deposit of all subscription monies (checks, or wire transfers) which are received
    by the Escrow Agent from prospective purchasers of the Securities, (b) the holding of amounts of subscription monies
    which are collected through the banking system, and (c) the disbursement of collected funds, all as described herein.


 


	2.2	On
    or before the date of the initial deposit in the Bank Account pursuant to this Agreement, the Placement Agent shall notify
    the Escrow Agent in writing of the Effective Date of the Registration Statement (the “Effective Date”),
    and the Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept any amounts for credit to the Escrow Account or for deposit in the Bank
    Account prior to its receipt of such notification.


 


	2.3	The Offering
                              Period, which shall be deemed to commence no sooner than the Effective Date, shall consist of the
                              number of calendar days or business days set forth on the Information Sheet. The last day of the
                              Offering Period is referred to herein as the “Termination Date”. Except as provided
                              in Section 4.3 hereof, after the Termination Date the Placement Agent shall not deposit, and
                              the Escrow Agent shall not accept, any additional amounts representing payments by prospective purchasers.





 



     


     


    

 


	3 	Deposits to the Bank Account.




 


	3.1	The
    Placement Agent and the Company shall instruct prospective purchasers to deliver to the Escrow Agent all monies in the form
    of checks or wire transfers. Upon the Escrow Agent’s receipt of such monies, they shall be credited to the Escrow Account.
    All checks delivered to the Escrow Agent shall be made payable to “Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Co. as Agent
    for Ominto Inc.” Any check payable other than to the Escrow Agent as required hereby shall be returned to the prospective
    purchaser, or if the Escrow Agent has insufficient information to do so, then to the Placement Agent (together with any Subscription
    Information, as defined below or other documents delivered therewith) by noon of the next business day following receipt of
    such check by the Escrow Agent, and such check shall be deemed not to have been delivered to the Escrow Agent pursuant to
    the terms of this Agreement


 


	3.2	Promptly
    after receiving subscription monies as described in Section 3.1, the Escrow Agent shall deposit the same into the Bank
    Account. Amounts of monies so deposited are hereinafter referred to as “Escrow Amounts”. The Escrow Agent
    shall cause the Bank to process all Escrow Amounts for collection through the banking system. Simultaneously with each deposit
    to the Escrow Account, the Placement Agent (or the Issuer, if such deposit is made by the Issuer) shall inform the Escrow
    Agent in writing of the name, address, and the tax identification number of the purchaser, the amount of Securities subscribed
    for by such purchase, and the aggregate dollar amount of such subscription (collectively, the “Subscription Information”).


 


	3.3	The
    Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept for credit to the Escrow Account or for deposit into the Bank Account checks
    which are not accompanied by the appropriate Subscription Information, which at minimum shall include the name address, tax
    identification number and the number of shares/units. Wire transfers representing payments by prospective purchasers shall
    not be deemed deposited in the Escrow Account until the Escrow Agent has received in writing the Subscription Information
    required with respect to such payments.


 


	3.4	The
    Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept in the Escrow Account any amounts representing payments by prospective purchasers,
    whether by check or wire, except during the Escrow Agent’s regular business hours.


 


	3.5	Only
    those Escrow Amounts, which have been deposited in the Bank Account and which have cleared the banking system and have been
    collected by the Escrow Agent, are herein referred to as the “Fund”.


 






    	 	2	 



     


    

 


	3.6	If
    the proposed offering is terminated before the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall refund any portion of the Fund prior
    to disbursement of the Fund in accordance with Article 4 hereof upon instructions in writing signed by both the Issuer and
    the Placement Agent.


 


	4	Disbursement from the Bank Account.




 


	4.1	Subject
    to Section 4.3 below, if by the close of regular banking hours on the Termination Date the Escrow Agent determines that
    the amount in the Fund is less than the Minimum Dollar Amount, as indicated by the Subscription information submitted to the
    Escrow Agent, then in either such case, the Escrow Agent shall promptly refund to each prospective purchaser the amount of
    payment received from such purchaser which is then held in the Fund or which thereafter clears the banking system, without
    interest thereon or deduction therefrom, by drawing checks on the Bank Account for the amounts of such payments and transmitting
    them to the purchasers. In such event, the Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Placement Agent of its distribution
    of the Fund.


 


	4.2	Subject
    to Section 4.3 below, if at any time up to the close of regular banking hours on the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent
    determines that the amount in the Fund is at least equal to the Minimum Dollar Amount, the Escrow Agent shall promptly notify
    the Issuer and the Placement Agent of such fact in writing.   The Escrow Agent shall only be entitled to receive
    Funds until the Escrow Account reaches the Maximum Dollar Amount.  Any Funds received by the Escrow Agent in excess
    of the Maximum Dollar Amount shall be returned to the Placement Agent for distribution to the investor.  On the
    Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall promptly disburse the Fund, by wiring funds from the Bank Account in accordance with
    instructions in writing signed by both the Issuer and the Placement Agent as to the disbursement of the Fund, promptly after
    it receives such instructions.  If the Minimum Dollar Amount is not reached by the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent
    shall return the deposits as directed in written instructions signed by Placement Agent and the Issuer.


 


	4.3	If
    the Escrow Agent or the Placement Agent has on hand at the close of business on the Termination Date any uncollected amounts
    which when added to the Fund would raise the amount in the Fund to the Minimum Dollar Amount, and result in the Fund represent
    the sale of the Minimum Securities Amount, the Collection Period (consisting of the number of business days set forth on the
    Information Sheet) shall be utilized to allow such uncollected amounts to clear the banking system. During the Collection
    Period, the Placement Agent (and the Issuer) shall not deposit and the Escrow Agent shall not accept, any additional amounts;
    provided, however, that such amounts as were received by the Placement Agent (or the Issuer) by the close of business on the
    Termination Date may be deposited with the Escrow Agent by noon of the next business day following the Termination Date. If,
    at the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period, an amount sufficient to raise the amount in the Fund to
    the Minimum Dollar Amount shall not have cleared the banking system, the Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer and
    the Placement Agent in writing of such fact and shall promptly return all amounts then in the Fund, and any amounts which
    thereafter clear the banking system to the prospective purchasers as provided in Section 4.2 hereof


 


	4.4	Upon disbursement of the Fund pursuant to the terms of this Article 4,
the Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability under this Agreement. It is expressly
agreed and understood that in no event shall the aggregate amount of payments made by the Escrow Agent exceed the amount of the
Fund.

    ministerial in nature, and that:


 


	5.1	The
    Escrow Agent shall notify the Placement Agent, on a daily basis, of the Escrow Amounts which have been deposited in the Bank
    Account and of the amounts, constituting the Fund, which have cleared the banking system and have been collected by the Escrow
    Agent.


 


	5.2	The
    Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for or be required to enforce any of the terms or conditions of the agreement between

    the Issuer of their respective obligations under this Agreement.


 


	5.3	The
    Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept from the Placement Agent (or the Issuer) any Subscription Information pertaining
    to prospective purchasers unless such Subscription Information is accompanied by checks, or wire transfers meeting the requirements
    of Section 3.1, nor shall the Escrow Agent be required to keep records of any information with respect to payments deposited
    by the Placement Agent (or the Issuer) except as to the amount of such payments; however, the Escrow Agent shall notify the
    Placement Agent within a reasonable time of any discrepancy between the amount set forth in any Subscription Information and
    the amount delivered to the Escrow Agent therewith. Such amount need not be accepted for deposit in the Escrow Account until
    such discrepancy has been resolved.


 


	5.4	The
    Escrow Agent shall be under no duty or responsibility to enforce collection of any check delivered to it hereunder. The Escrow
    Agent, within a reasonable time, shall return to the Placement Agent any check received which is dishonored, together with
    the Subscription Information, if any, which accompanied such check.


 


	5.5	The
    Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy, act in reliance upon the contents, and assume the genuineness of
    any notice, instruction, certificate, signature, instrument or other document which is given to the Escrow Agent pursuant
    to this Agreement without the necessity of the Escrow Agent verifying the truth or accuracy thereof. The Escrow Agent shall
    not be obligated to make any inquiry as to the authority, capacity, existence or identity or any person purporting to give
    any such notice or instructions or to execute any such certificate, instrument or other document. 


 


	5.6	If
    the Escrow Agent is uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder or shall receive instructions with respect to the Bank
    Account, the Escrow Amounts or the Fund which, in its sole determination, are in conflict either with other, instructions
    received by it or with any provision of this Agreement, it shall be entitled to hold the Escrow Amounts, the Fund, or a portion
    thereof, in the Bank Account pending the resolution of such uncertainty to the Escrow Agent’s sole satisfaction, by
    final judgment of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction or otherwise; or the Escrow Agent, at its sole option, may deposit
    the Fund (and any other Escrow Amounts that thereafter become part of the Fund) with the Clerk of a court of competent jurisdiction
    in a proceeding to which all parties in interest are joined. Upon the deposit by the Escrow Agent of the Fund with the Clerk
    of any court, the Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability hereunder.

    of such counsel.

    Should the Escrow Agent resign as herein provided, it shall not be required to accept any deposit, make any disbursement
    or otherwise dispose of the Escrow Amounts or the Fund, but its only duty shall be to hold the Escrow Amounts until they clear
    the banking system and the Fund for a period of not more than five (5) business days following the effective date of
    such resignation, at which time (a) if a successor escrow agent shall have been appointed and written notice thereof
    (including the name and address of such successor escrow agent) shall have been given to the resigning Escrow Agent by the
    Issuer, the Placement Agent and such successor escrow agent, then the resigning Escrow Agent shall pay over to the successor
    escrow agent the Fund, less any portion thereof previously paid out in accordance with this Agreement; or (b) if the
    resigning Escrow Agent shall not have received written notice signed by the Issuer, the Placement Agent and a successor escrow
    agent, then the resigning Escrow Agent shall promptly refund the amount in the Fund to each prospective purchaser without
    interest thereon or deduction therefrom, and the resigning Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Placement
    Agent in writing of its liquidation and distribution of the Fund; whereupon, in either case, the Escrow Agent shall be relieved
    of all further obligations and released from all liability under this Agreement. Without limiting the provisions of Section 8
    hereof, the resigning Escrow Agent shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Issuer and the Placement Agent for any actual
