(j) 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.

(k) The Escrow Agent (and any successor Escrow Agent) may at any time resign as such by delivering the Escrow Fund to any successor Escrow Agent jointly designated by the other parties hereto in writing, or the Escrow Agent shall have the right to institute a bill

The resignation of the Escrow Agent will take effect on the earlier of (i) the appointment of a successor (including a court of competent jurisdiction) or (ii) the day which is thirty (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 retain and safeguard the Escrow Fund until receipt of a designation of successor Escrow Agent or Joint Instructions or Final Determination.

(l) In the event of any disagreement between the other parties hereto resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the Escrow Fund or in the event that the Escrow Agent is in doubt as to what action it should take hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to retain the Escrow Fund until the Escrow Agent shall have received (i) a Final Determination directing delivery of the Escrow Fund or (ii) Joint Instructions directing delivery of the Escrow Fund, in which event the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Fund in accordance with such Final Determination or Joint Instructions. The Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way or to any person for its failure or refusal to act prior to receipt of a Final Determination or Joint Instructions to the extent there is a disagreement between the other parties hereto resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the Escrow Fund or in the event that the Escrow Agent is in doubt as to what action it should take hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall act on such Final Determination or Joint Instructions without further question.

(m) The Company shall pay the Escrow Agent compensation for the services to be rendered by the Escrow Agent hereunder as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and agrees to reimburse the Escrow Agent for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Escrow Agent in performance of its duties hereunder (in the case of legal fees and expenses, limited to the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of one outside counsel). The Escrow Agent shall not be entitled to set off and deduct any unpaid fees, non-reimbursed expenses and unsatisfied indemnification rights from amounts on deposit in the Escrow Account.
