Escrow Agreement Purchaser and the Escrow Agent shall have executed and delivered the Escrow Agreement.
Holdback Agreement (a) Each Holder agrees not to effect any sale, transfer, or other actual or pecuniary transfer (including heading and similar arrangements) of any Registrable Securities or of any other equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such stock or securities, during the period beginning seven (7) days prior to, and ending ninety (90) days after (or for such shorter period as to which the managing underwriter(s) may agree), the date of the underwriting agreement of each Underwritten Offering made pursuant to a Registration Statement other than Registrable Securities sold pursuant to such Underwritten Offering, provided that (i) notwithstanding the foregoing, the duration of the foregoing restrictions shall be no longer than the duration of the shortest restriction generally imposed by the underwriters on any of the Company, the officers, directors or any other affiliate of the Company or any other stockholder of the Company on whom a restriction is imposed or with whom the Company has granted registration rights for any of its equity securities; and (ii) the Holders shall not be subject to the foregoing restrictions if and to the extent that the managing underwriter(s) agree to waive the restriction set forth in such underwriting agreement for any of the Persons set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i); provided further, that none of the restrictions in this Section 6(a) shall apply to a Holder if such Holder has provided an Opt-Out Notice to the Company in accordance with Section 2(c)(ii) prior to receiving notice of such Underwritten Offering and has not revoked such Opt-Out Notice; and (b) the Company agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of its equity securities (or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities) during the seven (7) days prior to and during the ninety (90)-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten Demand Registration (or for such shorter period as to which the managing underwriter or underwriters may agree), except as part of such Demand Registration or in connection with any employee benefit or similar plan, any dividend reinvestment plan, or a business acquisition or combination and to use all reasonable efforts to cause each holder of at least five percent (5%) (on a fully diluted basis) of its equity securities (or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities) which are or may be purchased from the Company at any time after the date of this Agreement (other than in a registered offering) to agree not to effect any sale or distribution of any such securities during such period (except as part of such Underwritten Offering, if otherwise permitted). Each Holder agrees to enter into any agreements reasonably requested by any managing underwriter reflecting the terms of this Section 6.
Escrow Escrow shall be opened by Seller and funds deposited in escrow upon acceptance of this Agreement by both parties. The escrow holder will be a nationally-recognized escrow company selected by Seller. A copy of this Agreement will be delivered to the escrow holder and will serve as escrow instructions together with the escrow holder's standard instructions and any additional instructions required by the escrow holder to clarify its rights and duties (and the parties agree to sign these additional instructions). If there is any conflict between these other instructions and this Agreement, this Agreement will control.
Escrow Funds To provide for the timely payment of any post-closing claims by Buyer against Seller hereunder, at Closing, Seller shall deposit an amount equal to One Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($150,000.00) (the “Escrow Funds”) which shall be withheld from the Purchase Price payable to Seller and shall be deposited for a period of one (1) year in an escrow account with the Title Company pursuant to an escrow agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Buyer and Seller (the “Post-Closing Agreement”), which escrow and Post-Closing Agreement shall be established and entered into at Closing and shall be a condition to Buyer’s obligations under this Contract. All earnings accrue to Seller and Seller may direct investment thereof. If no claims have been asserted by Buyer against Seller, or all such claims have been satisfied, within such 1-year period, the Escrow Funds deposited by Seller shall be released to Seller.
Escrow Provisions Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges receipt by Escrow Agent of the Initial Deposit paid by Buyer to be applied to the Purchase Price under the terms hereof. Escrow Agent agrees to hold, keep and deliver the Initial Deposit, and the Additional Deposit to the extent received by Escrow Agent as provided in Section 1.04(a) hereof, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Escrow Agent shall not be entitled to any fees or compensation for its services hereunder. Escrow Agent shall be liable only to hold said sums and deliver the same to the parties named herein in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, it being expressly understood that by acceptance of this Agreement, Escrow Agent is acting in the capacity of a depository only and shall not be liable or responsible to anyone for any damages, losses or expenses unless same shall have been caused by the gross negligence or willful malfeasance of Escrow Agent. In the event of any disagreement between Buyer and Seller resulting in any adverse claims and demands being made in connection with or for the monies involved herein or affected hereby, Escrow Agent shall refuse to comply with any such claims or demands so long as such disagreement may continue. In so refusing, Escrow Agent shall make no delivery or other disposition of any of the monies then held by it under the terms of this Agreement, and in so doing Escrow Agent shall not become liable to anyone for such refusal; and Escrow Agent shall refrain from acting until (a) the rights of the adverse claimants shall have been finally adjudicated in a court of competent jurisdiction of the monies involved herein or affected hereby, or (b) all differences shall have been adjusted by agreement between Seller and Buyer, and Escrow Agent shall have been notified in writing of such agreement signed by the parties hereto. Escrow Agent shall not be required to disburse any of the monies held by it under this Agreement unless in accordance with either a joint written instruction of Buyer and Seller or an undisputed Escrow Demand (as hereinafter defined) from either Buyer or Seller in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth. Upon receipt by Escrow Agent from either Buyer or Seller (the “Notifying Party”) of any notice or request (the “Escrow Demand”) to perform any act or disburse any portion of the monies held by Escrow Agent under the terms of this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the other party (the “Notified Party”). If within five (5) business days after the giving of such notice, Escrow Agent does not receive any written objection to the Escrow Demand from the Notified Party, Escrow Agent shall comply with the Escrow Demand. If Escrow Agent does receive written objection from the Notified Party in a timely manner as aforesaid, Escrow Agent shall take no further action until the dispute between the parties has been resolved pursuant to either clause (a) or (b) above, provided, however, in the case of clause (a), Escrow Agent may bring an appropriate action or proceeding for leave to deposit said monies into any court of competent jurisdiction pending such adjudication and to submit such resolution of such dispute to such court by action of interpleader, whereupon Escrow Agent’s obligations hereunder shall terminate.
Disbursement of the Escrow Shares 3.1 The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares during the period (the “Escrow Period”) commencing on the date hereof and (i) for 50% of the Escrow Shares, ending on the earlier of (x) six months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination (as described in the Registration Statement, hereinafter a “Business Combination”) and (y) the date on which the closing price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) for the remaining 50% of the Escrow Shares, ending six months after the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination. The Company shall promptly provide notice of the consummation of a Business Combination to the Escrow Agent. Upon completion of the Escrow Period, the Escrow Agent shall disburse such amount of each Initial Shareholder’s Escrow Shares (and any applicable share power) to such Initial Shareholder; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified by the Company pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof that the Company is being liquidated at any time during the Escrow Period, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly destroy the certificates representing the Escrow Shares; provided further, however, that if, within six months after the Company consummates an initial Business Combination, the Company (or the surviving entity) subsequently consummates a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the shareholders of such entity having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property, then the Escrow Agent will, upon receipt of a notice executed by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer or other authorized officer of the Company, in form reasonably acceptable to the Escrow Agent, certifying that such transaction is then being consummated or such conditions have been achieved, as applicable, release the Escrow Shares to the Initial Shareholders. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder after the disbursement or destruction of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 3.1.
Escrow Agreements The parties hereto agree that, to the extent required by applicable law, they shall enter into and file with appropriate jurisdictions any escrow agreements or similar contractual arrangements with respect to the taxes covered by this Agreement. The terms of such agreements shall, to the extent set forth therein, and with respect to the parties thereto, prevail over the terms of this Agreement.
Xx Waiver Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 11 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 11 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
