     9.5. To the extent that the Escrow Agent or the Administrator becomes

which in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this
Escrow Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent or the Administrator, as
applicable, hereunder, the monies or other property held by it hereunder or any
income earned from investment of such monies; provided, that such expenses or
loss are not as a result of the Escrow Agent or the Administrator, as
applicable, acting, or omitting to take action, in bad faith or with willful
misconduct or gross negligence. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent
or the Administrator, as applicable, of notice of any demand or claim or the
commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent or the
Administrator, as applicable, shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made
against the Company, notify the Company thereof in writing, but the failure by

not relieve the Company from any liability which the Company may have to the
Escrow Agent or the Administrator hereunder. For the purposes hereof, the term
"expense or loss" shall include all amounts paid or payable to satisfy any
claim, demand or liability, or in settlement of any claim, demand, action, suit
