The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a writing 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 have given its prior written consent thereto.

Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify the other parties hereto in writing.

6. Resignation; Successor Escrow Agent.

(a) The Escrow Agent (and any successor escrow agent) may at any time resign as such upon five (5) days’ prior notice to each of the other parties. Upon receipt of a notice of resignation, the Company shall use its best efforts to select a successor agent within five (5) days, but if within that five-day period the Escrow Agent has not received a notice signed by the Company appointing a successor escrow agent and setting forth its name and address, the Escrow Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) select on behalf of the Company a bank or trust company to act as successor escrow agent, for such compensation as that bank or trust company customarily charges and on such terms and conditions not inconsistent with this Agreement as that bank or trust company reasonably requires.

(b) The fees and charges of any successor escrow agent shall be paid by the Company. A successor escrow agent selected by the resigning Escrow Agent may become the successor escrow agent by confirming in writing its acceptance of the position. The Company shall sign such other documents as the successor escrow agent reasonably requests in connection with its appointment, and each of them hereby irrevocably appoints the Escrow Agent as its attorney-in-fact to sign all such documents in its name and place.

(c) The Escrow Agent may deliver the Escrow Amount to the successor escrow agent selected pursuant to this provision and, upon such delivery, the successor escrow agent shall become the Escrow Agent for all purposes under this Agreement and shall have all of the rights and obligations of the Escrow Agent under this Agreement and the resigning Escrow Agent shall have no further responsibilities or obligations under this Agreement.
