    2.2 (a)
      All
      Subscribers’ checks shall be made payable to “TRI-STATE TITLE & ESCROW, LLC"
      and shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent at the address set forth on

      hereto
      and shall be
      accompanied by a written account of subscription in the form attached hereto
      as
Exhibit
      B
      (the “Subscription

      The
      Escrow
      Agent shall, upon receipt of a Subscription, together with the related Purchase
      Price therefore, deposit the related Purchase Price of said Subscription in

      Agent
      is not open for business in the State of Virginia) after notifying Placement
      Agent of receipt of said wire, the Escrow Agent shall return the funds to the
      prospective purchaser.

    

    3.
      Escrow
      Agent to Hold and Disburse Escrowed Funds.
      The
      Escrow Agent will hold and disburse the Escrowed Funds received by it pursuant
      to the terms of this Escrow Agreement, as follows: 

    

    3.1 Upon
      receipt of joint instructions from the Company and the Placement Agent, in
      substantially the form of Exhibit
      C
      hereto,
      the Escrow Agent shall release the Escrowed Funds as directed in such
      instructions. 

    

    3.2 In
      the
      event this Agreement, the Escrowed Funds or the Escrow Agent becomes the subject
      of litigation, or if the Escrow Agent shall desire to do so for any other
      reason, the Company authorizes the Escrow Agent, at its option, to deposit
      the
      Escrowed Funds with the clerk of the court in which the litigation is pending,
      or a court of competent jurisdiction if no litigation is pending, and thereupon
      the Escrow Agent shall be fully relieved and discharged of any further
      responsibility with regard thereto. The Company also authorizes the Escrow
      Agent, if it receives conflicting claims to the Escrow Funds, is threatened
      with
      litigation or if the Escrow Agent shall desire to do so for any other reason,
      to
      interplead all interested parties in any court of competent jurisdiction and
      to
      deposit the Escrowed Funds with the clerk of that court and thereupon the Escrow
      Agent shall be fully relieved and discharged of any further responsibility
      hereunder to the parties from which they were received.

    3.3 In
      the
      event that the Escrow Agent does not receive any instructions by a date that
      is
      90 days from the date of this Agreement (the “Escrow Termination Date”), all
      Escrowed Funds shall be returned to the parties from which they were received,
      without interest thereon or deduction therefrom.

    

    4.
       Exculpation
      and Indemnification of Escrow Agent.

    

    4.1
       The
      Escrow Agent shall haven no duties or responsibilities other than those
      expressly set forth herein. 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 anyone else, by reason of any failure, on the part
      of
      any party hereto or any maker, guarantor, endorser or other signatory of a
      document or any other person, to perform such person’s obligations under any
      such document. Except for amendments to this Escrow Agreement referenced below,
      and except for written instructions given to the Escrow Agent by the Escrowing
      Parties relating to the Escrowed funds, the Escrow Agent shall not be obligated
      to recognize any agreement between or among any of the Escrowing Parties,
      notwithstanding that references hereto may be made herein and whether or not
      it
      has knowledge thereof. 

    

    4.2 The
      Escrow Agent shall not be liable to the Company, the Placement Agent or to
      anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by
      it
      to be taken or omitted, in good faith and 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 and
      to
      be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall
      not be bound by any of the terms thereof, unless evidenced by written notice
      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.

    

    4.3 The
      Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the sufficiency or accuracy of the
      form, or of the execution, validity, value or genuineness of, any document
      or
      property received, held or delivered to 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
      Company, the Placement Agent or to anyone else in any respect on account of
      the
      identity, authority or rights, of the person 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 the Escrowed Funds pursuant to the provisions
      hereof.

    4.4 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 Company, the
      Placement Agent or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted to be taken
      or
      omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, in reliance
      upon such assumption.

    

    4.5 To
      the
      extent that the Escrow Agent becomes liable for the payment of taxes, including
      withholding taxes, in respect of income derived from the investment of the
      Escrowed Funds, or any payment made hereunder, the Escrow Agent may pay such
      taxes; and the Escrow Agent may withhold from any payment of the Escrowed Funds
      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 for any penalties in respect of taxes, on such
      investment income or payments in the manner provided in Section 4.6

    

    4.6 The
      Escrow Agent will be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and
      against all expenses, including all counsel fees and disbursements, or loss
      suffered by the Escrow Agent in connection with any action, suit or proceedings
      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, except for claims relating to gross
      negligence by Escrow Agent or breach of this Escrow Agreement by the Escrow
      Agent, or the monies or other property held by it hereunder. Promptly after
      the
      receipt of the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement
      of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall, if a claim in respect
      thereof is to be made against an Escrowing Party, notify each of them thereof
      in
      writing, but the failure by the Escrow Agent to give such notice shall not
      relieve any such party from any liability which an Escrowing Party may have
      to
      the Escrow Agent hereunder. 

    

    4.7 For
      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, counsel fees and disbursements, paid or incurred in investigating
      or
      defending against any such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding.

      Escrow Agreement shall terminate upon disbursement of all of the Escrowed Funds,

      As
      soon as practicable after its resignation, the Escrow Agent shall, if it
      receives notice from the Company and the Placement Agent within the Notice

      the
      Placement Agent all Escrowed Funds (less such amount as the Escrow Agent is
      entitled to retain pursuant to Section 7) upon presentation of the document
      appointing the new escrow agent and its acceptance thereof. If no new agent
      is
      so appointed within the Notice Period, the Escrow Agent shall return the
