The Escrow Agent shall not be subject to, nor required to comply with, any other agreement to which the Fund is a party, even though reference thereto may be made herein, or to comply with any direction or instruction (other than those contained herein or delivered in accordance with this Escrow Agreement) from the Fund or any entity acting on the Fund's behalf. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to expend or risk any of its own funds or otherwise incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder.

In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable (i) for acting in accordance with or conclusively relying upon any instruction, notice, demand, certificate or document from the Fund or any entity acting on behalf of the Fund, (ii) for any indirect, cumulative, consequential, punitive or special damages, regardless of the form of action and whether or not any such damages were foreseeable or contemplated unless such damages arise from the gross negligence, intentional acts, or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent, or (iii) for the acts or omissions of its nominees, correspondents, designees, agents, subagents or subcustodians, unless the Escrow Agent's selection of such nominees, correspondents, designees, agents, subagents or subcustodians of the Escrow Agent involves gross negligence or willful misconduct on part of the Escrow Agent.

(e) The Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel of its own choosing as to any matter relating to this Agreement, and the Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability in acting in good faith in accordance with any advice from such counsel.

(g) The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order, judgment, certification, demand, notice, instrument or other writing delivered to it hereunder without being required to determine the authenticity or the correctness of any fact stated therein or the propriety or validity or the service thereof. The Escrow Agent may act in conclusive reliance upon any instrument or signature believed by it to be genuine and may assume that any person purporting to give receipt or advice to make any statement or execute any document in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so.
(h) The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible in any respect for the form, execution, validity, value or genuineness of documents or securities deposited hereunder, or for any description therein, or for the identity, authority or rights of persons executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any such document, security or endorsement. The Escrow Agent shall not be called upon to advise any party as to the wisdom in selling or retaining or taking or refraining from any action with respect to any securities or other property deposited hereunder.
(i) The Escrow Agent shall not be under any duty to give the Escrow Funds held by it hereunder any greater degree of care than it gives its own similar property and shall not be required to invest any funds held hereunder. Uninvested funds held hereunder shall not earn or accrue interest.
(j) At any time the Escrow Agent may request an instruction in writing, in English from the Fund and may, at its own option, include in such request the course of action it proposes to take and the date on which it proposes to act, regarding any matter arising in connection with its duties and obligations hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for acting in accordance with such a proposal on or after the date specified therein, provided that the specified date shall be at least three (3) Business Days after the Escrow Agent sends such request for instructions and its proposed course of action to Fund by fax or electronic mail (receipt confirmed) or by overnight courier, and provided further that, prior to so acting, the Escrow Agent has not received the written instructions from the Fund to refrain from taking the proposed action.
(k) When the Escrow Agent acts on any information, instructions, communications, (including, but not limited to, communications with respect to the delivery of securities or the wire transfer of funds) sent by telex, facsimile, email or other form of electronic or data transmission, the Escrow Agent, absent gross negligence as proved in a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction, shall not be responsible or liable in the event such communication is not an authorized or authentic communication of the Fund or is not in the form the Fund sent or intended to send (whether due to fraud, distortion or otherwise). The Fund shall indemnify the Escrow Agent against any loss, liability, claim or expense (including legal fees and expenses) it may incur with its acting in accordance with any such communication.
(l) In the event of any ambiguity or uncertainty hereunder or in any notice, instruction or other communication received by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, refrain from taking any action other than to retain possession of the Escrow Funds. The Escrow Agent may, but is not obligated to, inform the Fund in writing of the ambiguity. If the Fund provides the Escrow Agent with written instructions which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty, the Escrow Agent shall comply with such written instructions.
(m) In the event of any dispute between or conflicting claims among the Fund and any other person or entity with respect to any Escrow Funds, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to refuse to comply with any and all claims, demands or instructions with respect to such Escrow Funds so long as such dispute or conflict shall continue, and the Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way to the Fund or any other person for failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to refuse to act until, in its sole discretion, either (i) such conflicting or adverse claims or demands shall have been determined by a final order, judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, which order, judgment or decree is not subject to appeal, or settled by agreement between the conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing satisfactory to the Escrow Agent or (ii) the Escrow Agent shall have received security or an indemnity satisfactory to it sufficient to hold it harmless from and against any and all losses which it may incur by reason of so acting. Any court order, judgment or decree shall be accompanied by a legal opinion by counsel for the presenting party, satisfactory to the Escrow Agent, to the effect that said order, judgment or decree represents a final adjudication of the rights of the parties by a court of competent jurisdiction, and that the time for appeal from such order, judgment or decree has expired without an appeal having been filed with such court. The Escrow Agent shall act on such court order and legal opinions without further question. The Escrow Agent may, in addition, elect, in its sole discretion, to commence an interpleader action or seek other judicial relief or orders as it may deem, in its sole discretion, necessary. The costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by, and shall be deemed an obligation of, the Fund.
(n) The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the contents of any writing of the arbitrators or any third party contemplated herein as a means to resolve disputes and may conclusively rely without any liability upon the contents thereof.
(o) The Escrow Agent does not have any interest in the Escrow Funds deposited hereunder but is serving as escrow holder only and having only possession thereof. The Fund shall pay or reimburse the Escrow Agent upon request for any transfer taxes or other taxes relating to the Escrow Funds incurred in connection herewith and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from any amounts that it is obligated to pay in the way of such taxes. Any payments of income from this Escrow Account shall be subject to withholding regulations then in force with respect to United States taxes. The Fund will provide the Escrow Agent with appropriate W-9 forms for tax identification number certifications, or W-8 forms for non-resident alien certifications. This paragraph shall survive notwithstanding any termination of this Escrow Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.
(p) The Escrow Agent shall provide to the Fund monthly statements identifying transactions, transfers or holdings of Escrow Funds and each such statement shall be deemed to be correct and final upon receipt thereof by the Fund unless the Escrow Agent is notified in writing, by the Fund, to the contrary within thirty (30) business days of the date of such statement.
(q) The Fund shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a list of authorized signatories, as set forth in the attached Schedule 2 hereto, with respect to any notice, certificate, instrument, demand, request, direction, instruction, waiver, receipt, consent or other document or communication required or permitted to be furnished to the Escrow Agent hereunder, and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on such list with respect to any party until a new list is furnished by such party to the Escrow Agent. Furthermore, in the event funds transfer instructions are given (other than in writing at the time of execution of this Agreement), whether in writing, by fax or otherwise, the Escrow Agent is authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to the person or persons designated on Schedule 3 hereto, and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmations of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The persons and telephone numbers designated for such call-backs may be changed only in a writing actually received by the Escrow Agent.
