EXHIBIT 10.19
  
 MASTER ESCROW AGREEMENT
  
 THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated August 4, 2022, is by and among (1) Westmount Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Agent”); (2) The Healing Company Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Parent”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, HLCO Borrower, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower” and together with Parent, collectively, “Company”), and (3) LL Historic, LLC (dba AEGIS LAW), a Missouri limited liability company authorized to transact business in the State of Florida (“Escrow Agent”). The Agent, Company, and Escrow Agent shall collectively be referred to as the “Parties” and each a “Party”.
  
 WHEREAS, the Company is in the business of purchasing businesses through predominantly asset sale transactions (generally, “Transactions” and each a “Transaction”);
  
 WHEREAS, the (1) Company is a party to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and among the Company, Agent, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), and the other parties thereto (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”); (2) the Borrower and the other grantors from time to time party thereto (the “Grantors”) are party to that certain Guarantee and Collateral Agreement dated as of the date hereof, made by the Grantors in favor of Agent (“Security Agreement”); and the Parent is party to that certain Pledge Agreement dated as of the date hereof by the Parent in favor of Agent (“Pledge Agreement”);
  
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Agent and the Lenders have agreed to provide financing to the Borrower (“Financing”) to be used to fund Transactions, which Financing is secured by all the assets of the Grantors and certain assets of Parent, as more specifically set forth in the Security Agreement and Pledge Agreement, as applicable;
  
 WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent acts as a neutral escrow agent between the Company and each seller of a Transaction for the purpose of holding funds in accordance with the definitive agreement executed between the Company and each seller of a Transaction (“Purchase Agreement”);
  
 WHEREAS, in order to facilitate a smooth closing process for one or more Transactions, the Agent and the Company wish for the Agent to disburse the Borrower’s Financing directly to the Escrow Agent and for such funds to be held in trust by Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows.
  
 1. Establishment of Escrow.
  
 (a). Escrow Account. Prior to the Closing (defined below) of each Transaction to which Agent is providing Financing, Agent shall, or shall cause the Lenders to, send the Financing for such Transaction by wire transfer of immediately available funds, payable to the order of AEGIS Law held at the Bank of Tampa which the Escrow Agent will deposit in a segregated escrow account clearly identified as such on its books and records as Closing funds deposited by Agent and/or the Lenders and in which funds are not commingled with any funds or other property of the Escrow Agent, but may be comingled with funds and other property of other clients of Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Account”). All funds deposited in the Escrow Account pursuant to this Agreement are collectively called the “Escrowed Funds”. Any interest earned on the Escrowed Funds shall be for the benefit of The Florida Bar, pursuant to The Florida Bar rules, and no interest shall be due to either Agent or the Company.
  
 (b). Purpose; Extended Closing Date. Simultaneously with each funding to the Escrow Account by Agent and/or the Lenders, the Agent shall provide written notice to Escrow Agent, in the form and substance set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (“Funding Notice”), setting forth the purpose of the Escrowed Funds (i.e., which Transaction they relate) as well as an outside date by which the closing (each a “Closing”) for such Transaction (as defined in the relevant Purchase Agreement) must occur (“Extended Closing Date”). No Extended Closing Date shall be earlier than five (5) days from the date Agent deposits Escrowed Funds into the Escrow Account for the relevant Transaction.
  
  
 	 
	Page 1 of 13
	

	 


 
 
  
 
 2. Escrowed Funds Restriction.
  
 (a). Prior to the consummation of each Closing, Agent may, recall all or any portion of the Escrowed Funds by executing a Release of Escrow (defined below) and delivering such Release of Escrow to Escrow Agent and the Company by electronic mail. Escrow Agent shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether Agent is entitled to deliver a Release of Escrow.
  
 (b). If the Closing of a Transaction does not occur on or before the Extended Closing Date for such Transaction:
  
  
 	  
	 i.
	 The Escrow Agent and the Company shall not close and/or distribute any of the relevant Escrowed Funds without the Agent’s prior written consent;

	  
	 ii.
	 The Agent may recall the relevant Escrowed Funds by executing a Release of Escrow (defined below) and delivering such Release of Escrow to Escrow Agent and the Company by electronic mail; and

	  
	 iii. 
	 The Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, (A) extend the Extended Closing Date or (B) agree to use Escrowed Funds intended for a given Transaction for a subsequent Transaction, by providing Escrow Agent with written notice in the form and substance as set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto.



 
 
  
 
 (c). In no event shall any Escrowed Funds be sent to the Company, without the written consent of the Agent.
  
 3. Release of Escrow. Should the Agent request the return of any Escrowed Funds pursuant to Section 2, Agent shall execute a release of escrow (“Release of Escrow”) in the form and substance set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto, setting forth (i) the amount of Escrowed Funds to be returned and (ii) Agent’s accurate and complete wire instructions. In addition, Escrow Agent may require oral confirmation of Agent’s wire instructions prior to any release of Escrowed Funds. In any return of Escrowed Funds, Escrow Agent may (a) deduct all documented and reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Escrow Agent in the establishment of the Escrow Account and the Escrowed Funds (with respect to a return of the entire Escrowed Funds) and/or all documented and reasonable out-of-pocket fees in accepting and returning the Escrowed Funds, including without limitation, deducting wire fees in the amounts normally deducted by the Escrow Agent with other clients; and (b) invoice all time spent in preparation and processing of the Escrow Account and Escrowed Funds and/or the return of all or any portion of the Escrowed Funds, to the Company; provided, that, the obligation to pay Escrow Agent’s fees and expenses shall be the obligation of the Company and in no event shall Agent be obligated to reimburse Escrow Agent for Escrow Agent’s fees and expenses. As a general estimate only, the Escrow Agent normally charges an Escrow fee, per Transaction, between $1,500 and $2,500, and wire fees in the amounts of $15 per wire in and $20 per wire out.
  
 4. Closing. Simultaneously with the Closing of each Transaction, the Escrowed Funds held in the Escrow Account for such Transaction shall be documented, in the Escrow Agent’s records, as being transferred from Agent’s Escrow Account to Escrow Agent’s escrow account for the relevant Transaction between the Company and the seller for such Transaction. Agent acknowledges and agrees that upon the Closing of the Transaction, the relevant Escrowed Funds may be held with the Escrow Agent as collateral for the Seller of such transaction to transfer the assets to the Company, subject to the Purchase Agreement. Following the Closing, Agent shall not send any notice requesting, and shall not be entitled to receive, the return of such Escrowed Funds as set forth in Section 2(a) of this Agreement, unless and until (i) the Purchase Agreement is terminated in writing by the Company and/or the seller of the relevant Transaction, (ii) the Escrow Agent receives a court order reflecting termination of the Purchase Agreement and directing the Escrowed Funds be returned to the Parent (or its designee), or (iii) the Company has provided the Agent with notice of an event occurring that permits the Company to terminate the Purchase Agreement in accordance with its terms; which notice shall be given by the Company to the Agent within one (1) business days of the Company’s knowledge of such event. Following the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (i) through (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Escrow Funds to the Escrow Account upon written demand by the Agent and await further instruction from the Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, so long as the Escrow Funds are held in the Escrow Account or any other escrow account for a relevant Transaction, this Agreement shall govern the Escrow Agent’s handling of such Escrow Funds.

 5. Court Order. Upon the initiation of any legal proceedings (or if reasonably practical, prior to such initiation) related to the Escrowed Funds, the Company shall notify the Agent of such legal proceedings to provide an opportunity for the Agent or one of its affiliates to join such legal proceeding as an interested party; in which the Agent shall provide the court a copy of this Agreement and any other documents deemed necessary by the Agent, to set forth the purpose of the Escrowed Funds and the process to which they should be allocated in a final court order (to which the Escrow Agent would rely).
  
 6. Authorized Signatories. The Escrow Agent may rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, any written notice or instruction furnished to it hereunder and reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed (a) in the case of the Company, by Simon Belsham or Amit Kapur and (b) in the case of the Agent by Marc Helwani. The parties agree that signatures may be in electronic form, accepted by scan, email or facsimile. Escrow Agent shall have no obligation to verify whether a signature is or is not genuine.
  
 7. Duties of the Escrow Agent; Expenses.
  
 (a). The duties of the Escrow Agent are only such as are herein specifically provided, being purely ministerial in nature; and the Escrow Agent shall incur no liability whatsoever except as a result of Escrow Agent’s fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence.
  
 (b). The Escrow Agent shall be under no responsibility in respect of the Escrowed Funds other than to follow faithfully the instructions herein contained, and the Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability because of any loss or diminution in value of the Escrowed Funds by reason of any investment made by Company in connection with a Transaction. The Escrow Agent may consult with counsel (including, without limitation, its own in-house counsel) on any matter pertaining to this Agreement or any of its duties under this Agreement, and, subject to Section 7(a) above, the Escrow Agent will be fully protected in any action taken or not taken in good faith in accordance with the advice of counsel.
  
 (c). The Escrow Agent shall not be required to defend any legal proceedings which may be instituted against it in respect of the Escrowed Funds or this Agreement unless requested to do so by one or more of the other parties to this Agreement and unless the Escrow Agent is indemnified to its satisfaction against the cost and expense of such defense. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to institute legal proceedings of any kind in respect of the Escrowed Fund or this Agreement. Nevertheless, the Escrow Agent may, in its discretion, defend or institute any such legal proceeding.
  
 (d). The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the genuineness or validity of any document or other item deposited with it and believed by it, in good faith, to be genuine and valid; and, in any event, the Escrow Agent will be fully protected in acting in accordance with any written instructions given to it hereunder and believed by it to have been properly signed.
  
 (e). The Company hereby indemnifies and holds Escrow Agent harmless from and against any and all reasonable and documented claims, losses, fees, penalties, and costs, including reasonable and documented attorney’s fees and court costs, incurred by Escrow Agent as a result of or arising out of any dispute, claim or litigation under this Agreement or arising out of the existence of the Escrow Account, except to the extent the same is caused by Escrow Agent’s fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence.

 (f). The Company shall pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and disbursements, court costs and the cost of appellate proceedings) which the Escrow Agent incurs in any litigation under or pertaining to this Agreement or the Escrowed Funds other than costs and expenses incurred in connection with any claim against the Escrow Agent based on fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent provided it is finally determined after appeals, if any, that the Escrow Agent was, in fact, guilty of such fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence.
  
 (g). The Escrow Agent is a law firm with attorneys licensed to practice law in the State of Florida. The Company and Agent represent and warrant that Escrow Agent has not provided legal advice to the Company or Agent.

 8. Lien of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall have a lien on the Escrowed Funds solely with respect to all unpaid amounts owing to it under this Agreement that remain unpaid for a period of thirty (30) calendar days after providing an invoice to the Parties for such amount, and the Escrow Agent may pay such amounts to itself from the Escrowed Funds if such amount has not been paid within thirty (30) calendar days of the date due (except as otherwise described in Section 3 of this Agreement); provided, that, the lien of Escrow Agent on the Escrowed Funds shall be expressly subordinate to Agent’s lien on such Escrowed Funds.

The Company may not terminate this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent and Escrow Agent. Such resignation or removal, as the case may be, shall be effective thirty (30) calendar days after the delivery of such notice or upon the earlier appointment of a successor escrow agent, and the Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility thereafter shall be to safely keep the Escrowed Funds and to deliver the same to a successor escrow agent as shall be appointed by the Company and Agent, as evidenced by a joint written notice delivered to the Escrow Agent or in accordance with a court order. Upon delivery of the Escrowed Funds to a successor escrow agent in accordance with this Section, the Escrow Agent shall thereafter be discharged from any further obligations hereunder. All power, authority, duties, and obligations of the Escrow Agent shall apply to the successor escrow agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, following Escrow Agent’s notice of resignation, Escrow Agent shall no longer accept any new Escrowed Funds.
