Exhibit A - Form of Escrow Agreement

 

(ATTACHED)

 

  

  

  

ESCROW AGREEMENT

 

THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “Escrow Agreement”), dated as of June 22, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), is made and entered into by and among NAYLOR GROUP PARTNERS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“NGP”), MICHAEL KOSLOSKE, an adult individual and resident of the State of Florida (“Kosloske”), and FOX CHASE BANK (“Escrow Agent”), with respect to Escrow Number ___________.

 

WITNESSETH

 

Whereas, NGP, Kosloske, Matthew S. Naylor, Russell R. Naylor, and Health Plan Intermediaries, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“HPI”), have executed on this date a Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) under which NGP will sell to Kosloske, and Kosloske will purchase from NGP, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Purchase Agreement all of NGP’s membership interest in HPI (the “Acquisition Transaction”);

 

Whereas, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Kosloske will deposit with, and deliver to, the Escrow Agent, contemporaneous with the execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement and this Escrow Agreement, the sum of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Earnest Deposit”);

 

Whereas, Escrow Agent desires to accept, hold, and disburse the Earnest Deposit deposited with it and the earnings thereon (said Earnest Deposit and the earnings thereon collectively referred to as the “Escrow Amount”), in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement; and

 

Whereas, in order to establish the escrow of funds and to effect the provisions of the Purchase Agreement, the parties hereto have entered into this Escrow Agreement.

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, for themselves, their successors and assigns, hereby agree as follows:

 

  

 

  

 

1.    APPOINTMENT; DEPOSIT; INVESTMENT. Escrow Agent is hereby appointed as escrow agent and shall serve in such capacity in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges its receipt from Kosloske of the Escrow Deposit. Escrow Agent shall be permitted, and is hereby authorized to deposit, invest, transfer, hold and disburse the Escrow Amount pursuant to this Escrow Agreement in accordance with such instructions and directions as may from time to time be provided to Escrow Agent in a written document signed by both NGP and Kosloske (“Joint Instructions”). Escrow Agent may act upon any Joint Instructions believed by it in good faith to be genuine and presented by the proper person or persons and shall not be liable in connection with the performance by it of its duties pursuant to the provisions hereof, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence. Escrow Agent shall have no duty to enforce any provision hereof requiring performance by any other party hereunder. With respect to the investment of the Escrow Amount, the Escrow Agent shall invest and reinvest all cash funds from time to time comprising part of the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Agent’s Business Money Market account. Kosloske shall be responsible for payment of all taxes that are payable with respect to any interest accrued or earned on the Escrow Amount, whether or not the income is distributed by the Escrow Agent to Kosloske.

 

2.    DISBURSEMENT OF ESCROW FUNDS.

 

2.1.  Authorization of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to disburse the Escrow Amount (i) upon receipt of Joint Instructions instructing Escrow Agent to do so, or (ii) in accordance with the Disbursement Notice procedure set forth in Section 2.2 hereof.

 

2.2.  Reliance on Disbursement Notice. In the absence of Joint Instructions received from NGP and Kosloske, Escrow Agent shall follow the below procedure set forth in this Section 2.2 to disburse the Escrow Amount. On the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) or on the day following the Drop Dead Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), whichever comes first, NGP shall provide a written notice to Escrow Agent (a “Disbursement Notice”), with a copy to Kosloske, advising that one of the following events has occurred (i) the Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) has occurred and the Escrow Amount is to be disbursed to NGP in full on account of the Purchase Price (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), or (ii) the Closing has not occurred because the Purchase Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) or 6(a)(ii) thereof, and as a consequence thereof, the entire Escrow Amount is to be disbursed to Kosloske, or (iii) the Closing has not occurred because the Purchase Agreement has been terminated (A) solely due to a failure of the condition set forth in Section 4(a)(vi) of the Purchase Agreement and, at such time, all other conditions to Closing set forth in Section 4(a) of the Purchase Agreement are satisfied, or (B) NGP has terminated the Purchase Agreement pursuant to Section 6(a)(iii) thereof, and as a consequence thereof, the Escrow Amount is to be disbursed to NGP in full; provided, that if NGP does not timely provide the Disbursement Notice set forth in Section 2.2(ii) hereof, Kosloske will be entitled to do so. Kosloske or NGP, as applicable, shall have five (5) business days following receipt of a Disbursement Notice (the “Objection Period”) to object in writing to the Escrow Agent as to the content of the Disbursement 

 

  

-2-

  

 

Notice. If Kosloske or NGP, as applicable, does not deliver to the Escrow Agent an objection to the Disbursement Notice within the Objection Period, the Disbursement Notice from NGP or Kosloske, as applicable, shall be regarded as the definitive instructions and Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Amount in accordance with the Disbursement Notice delivered by NGP or Kosloske, as applicable. If a written objection from Kosloske or NGP, as applicable, is received by Escrow Agent within the Objection Period, Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Amount until such time as Escrow Agent first receives either Joint Instructions from NGP and Kosloske regarding the disbursement of the Escrow Amount or an order from a court of competent jurisdiction directing the disbursement of the Escrow Amount. In the event that Escrow Agent receives no Joint Instructions or Disbursement Notice within thirty (30) days of the Closing or the Drop Dead Date, whichever occurs first, Escrow Agent may commence an action for interpleader pursuant to Section 4.2 below.

 

2.3.      Shortfall Payment By Kosloske. If on account of the circumstances described in subpart (iii) of Section 2.2 above, the Escrow Agent disburses the Escrow Amount to NGP, and the amount so disbursed to NGP is less than $50,000.00 (or is $0.00) due to the Escrow Agent deducting its costs and expenses as permitted under Section 3.2 hereof, Kosloske shall (subject to Kosloske’s rights under Section 4.3(e)) pay to NGP by bank check drawn on collectible funds, within two (2) business days after the date of disbursement of the Escrow Amount, the amount by which $50,000 exceeds the Escrow Amount, if any, disbursed to NGP.

 

3.    COMPENSATION; COSTS AND EXPENSES.

 

3.1.  Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall be paid a one-time service fee in the amount of Three Hundred Fifty Dollars ($350.00) for all services being provided by it under this Escrow Agreement. Kosloske shall pay this sum to Escrow Agent within five (5) business days after the date hereof.

 

3.2.  Costs and Expenses. The Escrow Agent may deduct from the Escrow Amount reasonable amounts for wire transfer fees and indemnification expenses and losses as described in Section 4.3 hereof before disbursing the Escrow Amount as provided herein.

 

4.    MATTERS RELATED TO ESCROW AGENT.

 

4.1.   Duties of Escrow Agent.

 

  (a)  Escrow Agent’s rights, duties and obligations are strictly limited to those expressly set forth in this Escrow Agreement, and Escrow Agent shall be under no implied obligation or subject to any implied liability hereunder. Escrow Agent shall not be required to take notice of any default or any other matter, nor shall Escrow Agent be bound or required to give notice of demand, or required to take any action whatsoever except as herein expressly provided. Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any loss or damage unless caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

  

-3-

  

 

  (b)  The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to enforce any obligation of any person to make any payment or delivery, or to direct or cause any payment or delivery to be made, or to enforce any obligation of any person to perform any other act. The Escrow Agent shall be under no liability to the other parties hereto or to anyone else by reason of any failure on the part of any party hereto other than the Escrow Agent or any maker, guarantor, endorser or other signatory of any document or any other person to perform such person’s obligations under any such document. Except for this Escrow Agreement and instructions given to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement relating to the Escrow Amount under this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to recognize any agreement between any and all of the persons referred to herein, notwithstanding that references thereto may be made herein and whether or not it has knowledge thereof.

  (c)  The Escrow Agent may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained), which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Escrow Agreement or any of the terms thereof, unless evidenced by a writing timely delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto.

 

  (d)  The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the sufficiency or accuracy of the form of, or the execution, validity, value or genuineness of, any document or property received, held or delivered by it hereunder, or of any signature or endorsement thereon, or for any lack of endorsement thereon, or for any description therein; nor shall the Escrow Agent be responsible or liable to the other parties hereto or to anyone else in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the persons executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any document or property or this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the use or application of any funds or other property paid or delivered by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the provisions hereof. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any party for any loss which may be incurred by reason of any investment of any monies which it holds hereunder.

 

  (e)  The Escrow Agent shall have the right to assume in the absence of written notice to the contrary from the proper person or persons that a fact or an event by reason of which an action would or might be taken by the Escrow Agent does not exist or has not occurred, without incurring liability to the other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in reliance upon such assumption.

 

  (f)  To the extent that the Escrow Agent becomes liable for the payment of taxes, including withholding taxes, in respect of income derived from the 

 

  

-4-

  

 

investment of funds held hereunder or any payment made hereunder, the Escrow Agent may pay such taxes from the Escrow Amount. The Escrow Agent may withhold from any payment of monies held by it hereunder such amount as the Escrow Agent estimates to be sufficient to provide for the payment of such taxes not yet paid, and may use the sum withheld for that purpose. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless against any liability for taxes and tor any penalties or interest in respect of taxes, on such investment income or payments in the manner provided herein. The Escrow Agent shall be responsible for reporting all interest or other income earned on the Escrow Amount to the IRS and any other taxing authority, and file all IRS 1099s and similar information reporting statements required to be filed under applicable law. All other tax returns required to be prepared and filed with respect to interest or other income earned on, or otherwise related to, the Escrow Amount will be prepared and filed by the party that is legally responsible for filing such tax returns under applicable law.

 

  (g)  Any payments to a person or entity entitled to receipt of any of the Escrowed Amount pursuant to the terms hereof shall be made, at the sole discretion of the Escrow Agent, either (i) by check, or (ii) by wire transfer to such person or entity, pursuant to the wire instructions provided to the Escrow Agent.

 

4.2 .  Right to Interplead. If any controversy arises with respect to the escrow established hereunder or the Escrow Amount, Escrow Agent shall not be required to resolve the same or to take any action to do so but may, at its discretion, institute such interpleader or other proceedings as it deems proper.

 

4.3.   Indemnification.

 

  (a) The Escrow Agent will be indemnified and held harmless by NGP and Kosloske, jointly and severally, from and against any and all expenses, including counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Escrow Agent in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim, or in connection with any claim or demand, which in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Escrow Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder, the monies or other property held by it hereunder or any income earned from investment of such monies. The Escrow Agent shall have a lien for the amount of its reasonable costs and expenses hereunder, and any such expenses or loss on the monies and other property held by it hereunder and shall be entitled to reimburse itself from the Escrow Amount any such expense or loss. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim to the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any of the other parties hereto, notify such party (with a copy to the other parties) thereof in writing, but the failure by the Escrow Agent to give such notice shall not relieve any such other party from any liability which such party may have to the Escrow Agent hereunder. Notwithstanding any obligation to make payments hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof, the Escrow Agent may retain and hold for such time as it deems necessary such amount of monies or property as it shall, from time to time, in its sole discretion, deem sufficient to indemnify itself for any such loss or expense.

 

  

-5-

  

 

  (b)  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 or proceeding settled with the express written consent of the Escrow Agent, and all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, paid or incurred in investigating or defending against any such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding.

 

  (c)  The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to employ such legal counsel and other experts as the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem necessary properly to advise the Escrow Agent in connection with the Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, may rely upon the advice of such counsel, and may pay such counsel reasonable compensation.

 

  (d)  Without limiting the rights of Escrow Agent under Section 4.2 hereof, it is understood and agreed that should any dispute arise with respect to the delivery and/or ownership or right of possession of the Escrow Amount held by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent is authorized in the Escrow Agent’s sole discretion (1) to retain in the Escrow Agent’s possession without liability to anyone all or any part of said documents or the Escrow Amount until such disputes shall have been settled either by mutual written agreement of the parties concerned by a final order, decree or judgment or a court of competent jurisdiction after the time for appeal has expired and no appeal has been perfected, but the Escrow Agent shall be under no duty whatsoever to institute or defend any such proceedings, or (2) to deliver the Escrow Amount and any other property and documents held by the Escrow Agent hereunder to a state having competent subject matter jurisdiction and located in Chester County, Pennsylvania or a Federal court sitting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in accordance with the applicable procedure therefor.

 

  (e)  Kosloske shall indemnify NGP and hold it harmless from and against any liability and obligations that NGP may have to the Escrow Agent as a result of its indemnity obligation under Section 4.3(a) as a result of Kosloske’s breach of this Agreement. NGP shall indemnify Kosloske and hold him harmless from and against any liability and obligations that Kosloske may have to the Escrow Agent as a result of his indemnity obligation under Section 4.3(a) as a result of NGP’s breach of this Agreement.

 

4.4.   Termination; Resignation. This Escrow Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the disbursement of the entire Escrow Amount, in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement unless this Escrow Agreement is sooner terminated at any time prior thereto by a written document signed by NGP and Kosloske. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from its duties as Escrow Agent hereunder by giving the parties written notice thereof. As soon as practicable after its resignation, the Escrow Agent shall turn over to a successor escrow agent appointed by the parties, all monies and property held hereunder, after deduction of the Escrow Agent’s reasonable costs and expenses, upon presentation of the document appointing the new escrow agent. If no new Escrow Agent is so appointed within the fifteen (15) day period following such notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may

b.    If any Event of Default occurs and is not cured within the relevant cure period (if any), Payee may (i) declare the unpaid principal amount and all accrued and unpaid interest due thereon to be immediately due and payable and (ii) draw on that certain [●] (the “Letter of Credit”) issued by [●] (“Issuing Bank”) in Payee’s favor for the unpaid principal amount of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest due thereon by delivering a written statement, signed by the [managing member] of Payee, to Maker and Issuing Bank containing the following statement: “[An Event of Default has occurred under that certain 4.0% Promissory Note, dated [●], 2011 (the “Note”), in the principal amount of $1,000,000 made by Michael W. Kosloske, an individual and resident of the State of Florida, in favor of Naylor Group Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and said Event of Default has not been cured with the applicable cure period, if any, provided in the Note.]”

Naylor, Matthew S. Naylor or to an entity in which either or both Naylors own in the aggregate a greater than 50% voting interest in such entity.

 

8.    Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Note shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the

 

  

-3-

  

 

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to its conflict of laws principles that would require application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Maker and Payee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Common Pleas of Chester County, Pennsylvania or the Federal Court sitting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (any such court, a “Pennsylvania Court”), over any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Note, (ii) agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by the means specified herein shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought against Maker or Payee in a Pennsylvania Court, (iii) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action, suit or proceeding brought in a Pennsylvania Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, and (iv) agree that final judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding in a Pennsylvania Court shall be conclusive and binding upon Maker and Payee and may be enforced in any other courts to whose jurisdiction the party against whom enforcement is sought may be subject, by suit upon such judgment. IN ADDITION TO THE FOREGOING, MAKER AND PAYEE IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE, AND MAKER AND PAYEE PARTY HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SUCH WAIVER IS MADE WITH FULL UNDERSTATING AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE NATURE OF THE RIGHTS AND BENEFITS WAIVED HEREBY.

 

9. Notices. All notices and other communications made or required to be given pursuant to this Note shall be in writing and shall be delivered (and deemed received) as provided in Section 7(h) of the Unit Purchase Agreement.

 

10. Usury. In the event that it is determined that, under the laws relating to usury applicable to Maker or the indebtedness evidenced by this Note (“Applicable Usury Laws”), the interest charges and fees payable by Maker in connection herewith or in connection with any other document or instrument executed and delivered in connection herewith cause the effective interest rate applicable to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note to exceed the maximum rate allowed by law (the “Maximum Rate”), then such interest shall be recalculated for the period in question and any excess over the Maximum Rate paid with respect to such period shall be credited, without further agreement or notice, to the principal amount outstanding hereunder to reduce said balance by such amount with the same force and effect as though Maker had specifically designated such extra sums to be so applied to principal and Payee had agreed to accept such extra payment(s) as a premium-free prepayment. All such deemed prepayments shall be applied to the principal balance payable at maturity. In no event shall any agreed-to or actual exaction as consideration for this Note exceed the limits imposed or provided by Applicable Usury Laws in the jurisdiction in which Maker is resident applicable to the use or detention of money or to forbearance in seeking its collection in the jurisdiction in which Maker is resident.

Naylor and Russell R. Naylor (collectively, the “Naylors”), and Health Plan Intermediaries, LLC (the “Company”).

 

Reference is made to that certain Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), entered into as of June 22, 2011, by and among the Buyer, the Seller, the Naylors and the Company, for the sale of the Naylor Units (as defined in the Agreement) by Seller to Buyer.

“Tax Reporting for the Transaction. The Parties agree that the Unit purchase by the Company shall be treated under Section 736(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time (the “Code”), as an exchange by the Seller of all of its interest in the Company’s property in exchange for the payments provided for in the Agreement and that, except as otherwise provided for under Subchapter K of the Code, the payments shall be regarded as payments for the sale or exchange of capital assets. The Parties agree to report the transaction in a manner consistent with this intended treatment.”
