RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF ESCROW AGENT

 

Section
1.01         Rights and Duties of Escrow Agent. The above-named parties agree
that the following provisions shall control with respect to the rights, duties, liabilities, privileges and immunities of the Escrow
Agent:

 

(a)          The
Escrow Agent shall neither be responsible for or under, nor chargeable with knowledge of, the terms and conditions of any other
agreement, instrument or document executed between/among the parties hereto, except as may be specifically provided in Schedule
A attached hereto. This Escrow Agreement sets forth all of the obligations of the Escrow Agent, and no additional obligations
shall be implied from the terms of this Escrow Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document.

 

(b)          The
Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any instructions, notice, certification, demand, consent, authorization, receipt, power of
attorney or other writing delivered to it by any other party without being required to determine the authenticity or validity thereof
or the correctness of any fact stated therein, the propriety or validity of the service thereof, or the jurisdiction of the court
issuing any judgment or order. The Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any signature believed by it to be genuine, and may assume
that such person has been properly authorized to do so.

 

(c)          Each
of the parties, jointly and severally, agrees to reimburse the Escrow Agent on demand for, and to indemnify and hold the Escrow
Agent harmless against and with respect to, any and all loss, liability, damage or expense (including, but without limitation,
attorneys' fees, costs and disbursements) that the Escrow Agent may suffer or incur in connection with this Escrow Agreement and
its performance hereunder or in connection herewith, except to the extent such loss, liability, damage or expense arises from its
willful misconduct or gross negligence as adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Escrow Agent shall have the further
right at any time and from time to time to charge, and reimburse itself from, the property held in escrow hereunder.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(d)          The
Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel of its selection in the event of any dispute or question as to the meaning or construction
of any of the provisions hereof or its duties hereunder, and it shall incur no liability and shall be fully protected in acting
in accordance with the opinion and instructions of such counsel. Each of the parties, jointly and severally, agrees to reimburse
the Escrow Agent on demand for such legal fees, disbursements and expenses and in addition, the Escrow Agent shall have the right
to reimburse itself for such fees, disbursements and expenses from the property held in escrow hereunder.

 

(e)          The
Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to give the property held in escrow by it hereunder any greater degree of care than it gives
its own similar property.

 

(f)          The
Escrow Agent shall invest the property held in escrow in such a manner as directed in Schedule A attached hereto, which
may include deposits in Citibank and mutual funds advised, serviced or made available by Citibank or its affiliates even though
Citibank or its affiliates may receive a benefit or profit therefrom. The Escrow Agent and any of its affiliates are authorized
to act as counterparty, principal, agent, broker or dealer while purchasing or selling investments as specified herein. The Escrow
Agent and its affiliates are authorized to receive, directly or indirectly, fees or other profits or benefits for each service,
task or function performed, in addition to any fees as specified in Schedule B attached hereto, without any requirement
for special accounting related thereto.

 

The parties to this Escrow
Agreement acknowledge that non-deposit investment products are not obligations of, or guaranteed, by Citibank/Citigroup nor any
of its affiliates; are not FDIC insured; and are subject to investment risks, including the possible loss of principal amount invested.
Only deposits in the United States are subject to FDIC insurance.

 

(g)          The
Escrow Agent shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest the property held in escrow if all or a portion of such property is
deposited with the Escrow Agent after 11:00 AM Eastern Time on the day of deposit. Instructions to invest or reinvest that are
received after 11:00 AM Eastern Time will be treated as if received on the following business day in New York. The Escrow Agent
shall have the power to sell or liquidate the foregoing investments whenever the Escrow Agent shall be required to distribute amounts
from the escrow property pursuant to the terms of this Escrow Agreement. Requests or instructions received after 11:00 AM Eastern
Time by the Escrow Agent to liquidate all or any portion of the escrowed property will be treated as if received on the following
business day in New York. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for any investment losses resulting from the investment,
reinvestment or liquidation of the escrowed property, as applicable, provided that the Escrow Agent has made such investment, reinvestment
or liquidation of the escrowed property in accordance with the terms, and subject to the conditions of this Escrow Agreement.

 

(h)          In
the event of any disagreement between/among any of the parties to this Escrow Agreement, or between/among them or either or any
of them and any other person, resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the subject matter of the Escrow,
or in the event that the Escrow Agent, in good faith, be in doubt as to what action it should take hereunder, the Escrow Agent
may, at its option, refuse to comply with any claims or demands on it, or refuse to take any other action hereunder, so long as
such disagreement 

 

    	-2-

    	 

    

 

continues
or such doubt exists, and in any such event, the Escrow Agent shall not become liable in any way or to any person for its failure
or refusal to act, and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to continue so to refrain from acting until (i) the rights of all parties
shall have been fully and finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) all differences shall have been adjusted
and all doubt resolved by agreement among all of the interested persons, and the Escrow Agent shall have been notified thereof
in writing signed by all such persons. The Escrow Agent shall have the option, after 30 calendar days’ notice to the other
parties of its intention to do so, to file an action in interpleader requiring the parties to answer and litigate any claims and
rights among themselves. The rights of the Escrow Agent under this paragraph are cumulative of all other rights which it may have
by law or otherwise.

 

(i)          The
Escrow Agent is authorized, for any securities at any time held hereunder, to register such securities in the name of its nominee(s)
or the nominees of any securities depository, and such nominee(s) may sign the name of any of the parties hereto to whom or to
which such securities belong and guarantee such signature in order to transfer securities or certify ownership thereof to tax or
other governmental authorities.

 

(j)          Notice
to the parties shall be given as provided in Schedule A attached hereto.

(v)     there shall be no more than six (6) Interest Periods in effect at any time.

4.Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans.  Section 4.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:
