25. Concerning the Escrow Agent. To induce the Escrow Agent to act hereunder, it is further agreed by the parties hereto that:
(a) This Agreement expressly sets forth all the duties of the Escrow Agent with respect to any and all matters pertinent hereto. No implied duties or obligations on the part of the Escrow Agent shall be read into this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by the provisions of any agreement among the other parties hereto except this Agreement.
(b) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action or failure to act in its capacity as Escrow Agent hereunder unless such action or failure to act shall constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Escrow Agent, in which case there shall be no indemnification obligations as provided in Paragraph 4, and the Escrow Agent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, Buyer and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any loss, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that they may suffer or incur as a consequence of such gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(c) The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any order, judgment, certification, demand, notice, instrument or other writing delivered to it hereunder (collectively a “Notice”) without being required to determine the authenticity or the correctness of any fact stated therein or the propriety or validity of the service thereof. The Escrow Agent will confirm the receipt and content of any Notice with the other parties. The Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any instrument or signature believed by it to be genuine and may assume, unless it has actual knowledge to the contrary, that any person purporting to give Notice or receipt or advice or make any statement or execute any document in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so.
(d) The Escrow Agent may act pursuant to the advice of counsel with respect to any matter relating to this Agreement and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted in accordance with such advice, except as provided in paragraph 7(b) above.
(e) The Escrow Agent is serving as escrow holder only and having only possession thereof, and is not charged with any duty or responsibility to determine the validity or enforceability of any such document.
(l) The Escrow Agent (and any successor Escrow Agent) may at any time resign as such by delivering the Stock Certificate(s) and Documents and the Purchase Funds to any successor Escrow Agent, jointly designated by the other parties hereto in writing, or to any court of competent jurisdiction, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall be discharged of and from any and all further obligations arising in connection with this Escrow Agreement thereafter. The resignation of the Escrow Agent will take effect on the earlier of (a) the appointment of a successor (including a court of competent jurisdiction) or (b) the day which is 30 days after the date of delivery of its written notice of resignation to the other parties hereto. If at that time the Escrow Agent has not received a designation of a successor Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility after that time shall be to safe keep the deposited Stock Certificate(s) and Documents and Purchase Funds and not make delivery or disposition thereof until receipt of a designation of successor Escrow Agent or a joint written disposition instruction by the other parties hereto or a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
3
(m) In the event of any disagreement among the parties hereto resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the Stock Certificate(s), Documents or Purchase Funds, or in the event that the Escrow Agent otherwise determines that the Stock Certificates, Documents and/or Purchase funds should be retained, then the Escrow Agent may retain the Stock Certificate(s), Documents and/or Purchase Funds until the Escrow Agent shall have received (i) a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction directing delivery of the Stock Certificate(s) and/or Purchase funds, or (ii) a written agreement executed by the other parties hereto directing delivery of the Stock Certificate(s), Documents and/or Purchase Funds, in which case the Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver the Stock Certificate(s), Documents and/or Purchase Funds in accordance with such order or agreement. Any court order referred to in (i) above shall be accompanied by a legal opinion by counsel for the presenting party reasonably satisfactory to the Escrow Agent to the effect that said court order is final and non-appealable. The Escrow Agent shall make no independent determination regarding the Stock Certificate(s), Documents or Purchase Funds absent the filing and notice of a legal action by one or both of the parties.
(n) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors (including successors by way of merger) and assigns, heirs, administrators and representatives and shall not be enforceable by or inure to the benefit of any third party except as provided in paragraph 7(g) with respect to a resignation by the Escrow Agent. Each entity that is a party hereto represents and warrants that they have the full power and authority to bind the entity and that Escrow Agent may rely upon such representation with out further inquiry. This Agreement may be modified only in writing, signed by all of the parties hereto, and no waiver hereunder shall be effective unless in writing signed by the party to be charged.
