(c) Except as and to the extent provided herein, the Escrow Agent shall not be obligated nor, without the consent of the General Partner and the Selling Agent, is it authorized to accept instructions under this Agreement directly from any Selected Dealer.

Section 2. Investment of Proceeds.

Instructions from the General Partner as to any such investments or the sale or other disposition thereof shall be confirmed in writing (but no delay or failure by the General Partner to confirm in writing an instruction given by telephone shall affect the validity of such instruction or result in any liability to the Escrow Agent for acting on such instruction).

Section 3. Acceptance or Rejection of Subscription.

As soon as practicable following receipt of each subscription, the General Partner will determine whether or not the subscription is to be accepted or rejected in whole or in part.
