      5.  Disbursements
        from the Escrow Account.

       

      a.  The

        on behalf of the Investor(s) and Company execute a Joint Written Direction
        directing the Escrow Agent to disburse the Escrow Funds pursuant to Joint
        Written Direction signed by the Company and the Investor(s). In disbursing
        such
        funds, Escrow Agent is authorized to rely upon such Joint Written Direction
        from
        the Company and the Investor(s) and may accept any signatory from the Company
        listed on the signature page to this Agreement and any signature from the
        Investor(s) that the Escrow Agent already has on file.

        to
        each subscriber without interest the amount received from each Investor(s),
        without deduction, penalty, or expense to the subscriber. The purchase money
        returned to each subscriber shall be free and clear of any and all claims
        of the
        Company, the Investor(s) or any of their creditors.

       

      c.  In
        the
        event Escrow Agent does receive the amount of the Escrow Funds prior to
        expiration of the Escrow Period, in no event will the Escrow Funds be released
        to the Company until such amount is received by Escrow Agent in collected
        funds.
        For purposes of this Agreement, the term “collected funds” shall mean all funds
        received by Escrow Agent which have cleared normal banking channels and are

        the form of cash.

       

      6.  Collection
        Procedure.
        Escrow
        Agent is hereby authorized to deposit the proceeds of each wire in the Escrow

      7.  Suspension
        of Performance: Disbursement Into Court.
        If at
        any time, there shall exist any dispute between the Company and the Investor(s)
        with respect to holding or disposition of any portion of the Escrow Funds
        or any
        other obligations of Escrow Agent hereunder, or if at any time Escrow Agent
        is
        unable to determine, to Escrow Agent’s sole satisfaction, the proper disposition
        of any portion of the Escrow Funds or Escrow Agent’s proper actions with respect
        to its obligations hereunder, or if the parties have not within thirty (30)
        days
        of the furnishing by Escrow Agent of a notice of resignation pursuant to
        Section
        9 hereof, appointed a successor Escrow Agent to act hereunder, then Escrow
        Agent
        may, in its sole discretion, take either or both of the following
        actions:

       

      a.  suspend
        the performance of any of its obligations (including without limitation any
        disbursement obligations) under this Escrow Agreement until such dispute
        or
        uncertainty shall be resolved to the sole satisfaction of Escrow Agent or
        until
        a successor Escrow Agent shall be appointed (as the case may be); provided
        however, Escrow Agent shall continue to invest the Escrow Funds in accordance
        with Section 8 hereof; and/or

       

      b.  petition
        (by means of an interpleader action or any other appropriate method) any
        court
        of competent jurisdiction in any venue convenient to Escrow Agent, for
        instructions with respect to such dispute or uncertainty, and to the extent
        required by law, pay into such court, for holding and disposition in accordance
        with the instructions of such court, all funds held by it in the Escrow Funds,
        after deduction and payment to Escrow Agent of all fees and expenses (including
        court costs and attorneys’ fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be
        incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with performance of its duties and
        the
        exercise of its rights hereunder.

       

      
        
           

        

        
          3

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

         

      

      c.  Escrow
        Agent shall have no liability to the Company, the Investor(s), or any person
        with respect to any such suspension of performance or disbursement into court,
        specifically including any liability or claimed liability that may arise,
        or be
        alleged to have arisen, out of or as a result of any delay in the disbursement
        of funds held in the Escrow Funds or any delay in with respect to any other
        action required or requested of Escrow Agent.

       

      8.  Investment
        of Escrow Funds.
        Escrow
        Agent shall deposit the Escrow Funds in a non-interest bearing account.


       

      If
        Escrow
        Agent has not received a Joint Written Direction at any time that an investment
        decision must be made, Escrow Agent shall maintain the Escrow Funds, or such
        portion thereof, as to which no Joint Written Direction has been received,
        in a
        non-interest bearing account. 

       

      9.  Resignation
        and Removal of Escrow Agent.
        Escrow
        Agent may resign from the performance of its duties hereunder at any time
        by
        giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the parties or may be removed,
        with or without cause, by the parties, acting jointly, by furnishing a Joint
        Written Direction to Escrow Agent, at any time by the giving of ten (10)
        days’
        prior written notice to Escrow Agent as provided herein below. Upon any such
        notice of resignation or removal, the representatives of the Investor(s)
        and the
        Company identified in Sections 13a.(iv) and 13b.(iv), below, jointly shall
        appoint a successor Escrow Agent hereunder, which shall be a commercial bank,
        trust company or other financial institution with a combined capital and
        surplus
        in excess of $10,000,000.00. Upon the acceptance in writing of any appointment
        of Escrow Agent hereunder by a successor Escrow Agent, such successor Escrow
        Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
        privileges and duties of the retiring Escrow Agent, and the retiring Escrow
        Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Escrow
        Agreement, but shall not be discharged from any liability for actions taken
        as
        Escrow Agent hereunder prior to such succession. After any retiring Escrow
        Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Escrow Agreement shall
        inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
        while
        it was Escrow Agent under this Escrow Agreement. The retiring Escrow Agent
        shall
        transmit all records pertaining to the Escrow Funds and shall pay all funds
        held
        by it in the Escrow Funds to the successor Escrow Agent, after making copies
        of
        such records as the retiring Escrow Agent deems advisable and after deduction
        and payment to the retiring Escrow Agent of all fees and expenses (including
        court costs and attorneys’ fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be
        incurred by the retiring Escrow Agent in connection with the performance
        of its
        duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder.

       

      10.  Liability
        of Escrow Agent.

       

      a.  Escrow
        Agent shall have no liability or obligation with respect to the Escrow Funds
        except for Escrow Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. Escrow Agent’s
        sole responsibility shall be for the safekeeping, investment, and disbursement
        of the Escrow Funds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Escrow
        Agent
        shall have no implied duties or obligations and shall not be charged with
        knowledge or notice or any fact or circumstance not specifically set forth
        herein. Escrow Agent may rely upon any instrument, not only as to its due
        execution, validity and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy
        of
        any information contained herein, which Escrow Agent shall in good faith
        believe
        to be genuine, to have been signed or presented by the person or parties
        purporting to sign the same and conform to the provisions of this Agreement.
        In
        no event shall Escrow Agent be liable for incidental, indirect, special,
        and
        consequential or punitive damages. Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to
        take
        any legal action or commence any proceeding in connection with the Escrow
        Funds,
        any account in which Escrow Funds are deposited, this Agreement or the Purchase
        Agreement, or to appear in, prosecute or defend any such legal action or
        proceeding. Escrow Agent may consult legal counsel selected by it in any
        event
        of any dispute or question as to construction of any of the provisions hereof
        or
        of any other agreement or its duties hereunder, or relating to any dispute
        involving any party hereto, and shall incur no liability and shall be fully
        indemnified from any liability whatsoever in acting in accordance with the
        opinion or instructions of such counsel. The Company and the Investor(s)
        jointly
        and severally shall promptly pay, upon demand, the reasonable fees and expenses
        of any such counsel.

       

      
        
           

        

        
          4

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

         

      

      b.  Escrow
        Agent is hereby authorized, in its sole discretion, to comply with orders
        issued
        or process entered by any court with respect to the Escrow Funds, without
        determination by Escrow Agent of such court’s jurisdiction in the matter. If any
        portion of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached, garnished or levied
        upon
        under any court order, or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance
        or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any court
        order,
        or in any case any order judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any
        court affecting such property or any part thereof, then and in any such event,
        Escrow Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to rely upon and comply
        with
        any such order, writ judgment or decree which it is advised by legal counsel
        selected by it, binding upon it, without the need for appeal or other action;
        and if Escrow Agent complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree,
        it
        shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or
        entity by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ judgment
        or
        decree may be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or
        vacated.

       

      11.  Indemnification
        of Escrow Agent.
        From and
        at all times after the date of this Agreement, the parties jointly and
        severally, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law and to the extent
        provided herein, indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent and each director,
        officer, employee, attorney, agent and affiliate of Escrow Agent (collectively,

        hereof, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising
        from or in any way relating to any claim, demand, suit, action, or proceeding
        (including any inquiry or investigation) by any person, including without
        limitation the parties to this Agreement, whether threatened or initiated,
        asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any person under
        any
        statute or regulation, including, but not limited to, any federal or state
        securities laws, or under any common law or equitable cause or otherwise,
        arising from or in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution,
        performance or failure of performance of this Agreement or any transaction
        contemplated herein, whether or not any such Indemnified Party is a party
        to any
        such action or proceeding, suit or the target of any such inquiry or
        investigation; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall have the
        right
        to be indemnified hereunder for liability finally determined by a court of
        competent jurisdiction, subject to no further appeal, to have resulted from
        the
        gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. If any
        such
        action or claim shall be brought or asserted against any Indemnified Party,

        hereunder in writing, and the Investor(s) and the Company shall assume the
        defense thereof, including the employment of counsel and the payment of all
        expenses. Such Indemnified Party shall, in its sole discretion, have the
        right
        to employ separate counsel (who may be selected by such Indemnified Party
        in its
        sole discretion) in any such action and to participate and to participate
        in the
        defense thereof, and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid
        by such
        Indemnified Party, except that the Investor(s) and/or the Company shall be
        required to pay such fees and expense if (a) the Investor(s) or the Company
        agree to pay such fees and expenses, or (b) the Investor(s) and/or the Company
        shall fail to assume the defense of such action or proceeding or shall fail,
        in
        the sole discretion of such Indemnified Party, to employ counsel reasonably
        satisfactory to the Indemnified Party in any such action or proceeding, (c)
        the
        Investor(s) and the Company are the plaintiff in any such action or proceeding
        or (d) the named or potential parties to any such action or proceeding
        (including any potentially impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified
        Party, the Company and/or the Investor(s) and the Indemnified Party shall
        have
        been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available
        to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Company
        or the Investor(s). The Investor(s) and the Company shall be jointly and
        severally liable to pay fees and expenses of counsel pursuant to the preceding
        sentence, except that any obligation to pay under clause (a) shall apply
        only to
        the party so agreeing. All such fees and expenses payable by the Company
        and/or
        the Investor(s) pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall be paid from time
        to
        time as incurred, both in advance of and after the final disposition of such
        action or claim. The obligations of the parties under this section shall
        survive
        any termination of this Agreement, and resignation or removal of the Escrow
        Agent shall be independent of any obligation of Escrow Agent.

      The
        parties agree that neither payment by the Company or the Investor(s) of any
        claim by Escrow Agent for indemnification hereunder shall impair, limit,
        modify,
        or affect, as between the Investor(s) and the Company, the respective rights
        and
        obligations of Investor(s), on the one hand, and the Company, on the other
        hand.

        be
        payable by the Company, upon demand by Escrow Agent. The obligations of the
        Company under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement
        and
        the resignation or removal of Escrow Agent.
