(b) | Vendor's Counsel assumes no obligation other than to hold the Deposit in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and to pay the Deposit to the person becoming entitled thereto in accordance with the terms of this Agreement except in the event of a dispute between the parties, in which event Vendor's Counsel may, in its discretion, pay the monies in dispute into court. Vendor's Counsel may act in reliance upon any document, instrument or signature believed by it to be genuine, and may assume that any person purporting to give any notice or instruction in accordance with the provisions hereof has been fully authorized to do so. |
(c) | This Agreement sets forth exclusively the duties of Vendor's Counsel with respect to any and all matters pertinent thereto.
