If, by the seventh calendar day after its receipt of the Backstop Closing Certificate, the Purchaser has not delivered a written objection to the Company as to the truth or accuracy of the statements made by the Company in the Backstop Closing Certificate, the Purchaser may not thereafter make any claim or bring any proceeding whether in law, equity or otherwise, or otherwise object to its obligation to fund the Backstop Escrow Account pursuant to this Agreement as a result of a failure of the Company to satisfy any of the Backstop Conditions Precedent set forth in Section 5.5(b) and (c) below.

(e) If, on or prior to December 10, 2012 (or to the extent the Second Closing has not occurred by December 3, 2012, on or before the seventh calendar day after its receipt of the Backstop Closing Certificate), the Purchaser delivers a written objection to the Company as to the truth or accuracy of the statements made by the Company in the Backstop Closing Certificate (or has otherwise alleged that a Backstop Condition Precedent is not then satisfied), thereafter proceedings are initiated to resolve any dispute arising therefrom in accordance with Section 10.1(d) below, and such proceeding shall not have been resolved by the arbitrator appointed pursuant to Section 10.1(d) by the date specified in Section 10.1(d)(iv)(8) below, and the Purchaser does not exercise its rights under Section 2.5(d) above, then notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.5(a) of the Governance Agreement, the Company may issue equity or any other equity ownership interests (including but not limited to equity-linked securities) in an amount up to the aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Convertible Notes, provided that any proceeds from such issue are used to repay the Convertible Notes. If any such issuance of equity or any other equity ownership interests (including but not limited to equity-linked securities) shall require the approval of the shareholders of the Company, the Purchaser and its Affiliates shall vote in favor of such issuance.

(f) If, on or before December 10, 2012 (or to the extent the Second Closing has not occurred by December 3, 2012, on or before the seventh calendar day after its receipt of the Backstop Closing Certificate), the Purchaser delivers a written objection to the Company as to the truth or accuracy of the statements made by the Company in the Backstop Closing Certificate, thereafter proceedings are initiated to resolve any dispute arising therefrom in accordance with Section 10.1(d), and such proceeding shall have been resolved by the arbitrator appointed pursuant to Section 10.1(d) in favor of the Purchaser, then the Purchaser shall be irrevocably excused from all obligations pursuant to Sections 2.5 and 2.6.

(b) Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.4, the Company may (A) provide information in response to a request by a Person who has made a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that was not initiated or solicited in violation of Section 8.4(a) if the Company receives from the Person so requesting the information an executed confidentiality agreement that is customary for transactions of the type of the Acquisition Proposal; and/or (B) engage in discussions or negotiations with any Person who has made a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that was not initiated or solicited in violation of Section 8.4(a), if, in the case of each of clauses (A) and (B), the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel that failure to take this action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law and if the Company Board determines in good faith that the Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal.

The Company shall not effect a change in the Company Recommendation (whether relating to a

Superior Proposal or otherwise) until after the fifth Business Day following the Purchaser’s receipt of written notice (a “Change in Recommendation Notice”) from the Company (i) with respect to a change in the Company Recommendation as a result of the Superior Proposal, advising the Purchaser that the Company Board has received a Superior Proposal, specifying the terms and conditions of the Superior Proposal and stating that the Company Board intends to effect a Change in Recommendation and (ii) with respect to a change in the Company Recommendation not relating to a Superior Proposal, specifying in reasonable detail the Intervening Event precipitating the Change in Recommendation and the reason for such change in Company Recommendation.

Any such purchases shall be made in compliance with generally applicable Company policies and applicable Law, including blackout periods for affiliate and xxxxxxx xxxxxxx restrictions.

Section 8.18. Polish Securities Laws.

Such efforts may (and to the extent reasonable, shall) include (a) efforts to obtain a determination from the applicable Governmental Entities that the mandatory tender offer provisions of the Polish Public Offering Act do not apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (or a waiver of such mandatory tender offer provision) or, if such determination or waiver cannot be obtained, (b) delisting from the Warsaw Stock Exchange if requested by the Purchaser so long as such delisting does not impose a material cost on the Company or require a material expenditure by the Company (other than out-of-pocket fees and expenses) and (c) to the extent requested by the Purchaser, agreeing to amend the New Debt or a recapitalization (including exchanging the New Debt for a new security) to satisfy applicable Governmental Entities that issuance of such New Debt security would not trigger the mandatory tender offer provisions of the Polish Public Offering Act (or would satisfy the requirements of a waiver of such mandatory tender provisions), to the extent such replacement security contains the same (or less favourable to the Purchaser or its nominee that holds the New Debt) economic terms and rights as the New Debt and is acceptable to the Purchaser.

Section 8.19. Amendment to the New Debt. Promptly after execution of this Agreement, the Company and Purchaser shall take all actions to amend the New Debt so that the maturity date on the New Debt is July 31, 2016.

ARTICLE X

GOVERNING LAW AND OTHER PROVISIONS

Section 10.1. Governing Law; Consent to jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial; Injunctive Relief

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal procedural and substantive laws of the State of New York without regard to any conflicts of laws concepts which would apply the substantive law of some other jurisdiction.

(b) Subject to Section 10.1(d) below and except for Section 10.1(c) below, the parties hereto agree that any dispute between them relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will be resolved solely in the manner set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) below:

(i) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court located in the State of New York and in the Borough of Manhattan, and all appellate courts relating thereto, for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement. Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS WAIVER.

(ii) Any dispute or claim arising under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be submitted to arbitration in New York, New York. Such arbitration will take place at and under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association or JAMS in accordance with its rules. The arbitration tribunal will consist of a single arbitrator agreed to by the parties (or if there is no agreement, as selected by the American Arbitration Association or JAMS (as applicable)); provided, that the parties agree to express a preference for such arbitrator to be a retired federal district court judge (or, if a retired federal district court judge is unavailable to hear such matter, a retired trial judge with commercial experience). Such arbitrator may not have any preexisting, direct or indirect personal, social or financial relationship with any party to the dispute. Each party hereto expressly consents to, and waives any future objection to, such forum and arbitration rules. The parties hereto agree to instruct the arbitrator (i) that the arbitration hearing must be completed within thirty (30) days of the request for arbitration, (ii) that his or her decision must be limited solely to disputes directly under this Agreement and the other Operative Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and each party hereto agrees that any decision or award of the arbitrator (or part thereof) that purports to address, interpret, apply, enforce or resolve any other agreement, issue or dispute between the parties will be deemed to be beyond the scope of the arbitrator’s power and authority and will be given no force or effect by either party hereto or any other Person or any court, either directly or by application of collateral estoppel, res judicata or otherwise; and each party hereto covenants that it will not argue that such decision should be given any such effect and (iii) that he or she must deliver to the parties a written award and explanation of the basis for such award within seven (7) days after completion of the arbitration hearing. Subject to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, the parties hereto agree that (A) the arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding upon the parties and (B) that any final arbitral award may be entered as a judgment or order in any court of competent jurisdiction. The costs of such arbitration (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the parties hereto in connection with such arbitration) will be the responsibility of the party hereto who did not prevail in such arbitration (and the parties hereto shall instruct the arbitrator to make such a determination).

Subject to the last sentence of Section 10.1(d) below, the plaintiff in the actions described in clauses (i) and (ii) above may divide any disputes or issues in question between the two forums in its discretion (to the extent permitted by applicable Law).

(c) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that damages will not be an adequate remedy for any material breach or violation of this Agreement if such material breach or violation would cause immediate and irreparable harm (an “Irreparable Breach”). Accordingly, in the event of a threatened or ongoing Irreparable Breach, each party hereto shall be entitled to equitable relief of a kind appropriate in light of the nature of the ongoing or threatened Irreparable Breach, without the necessity of posting a bond or providing an undertaking, which relief may include, without limitation, specific performance or injunctive relief. Such remedies shall not be the parties’ exclusive remedies, but shall be in addition to all other remedies provided in this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.1(d), any dispute as to whether the Purchaser is obligated to consummate the transactions contemplated by Section 2.5 above (a “Section 2.5 Dispute”) shall be resolved by mandatory, final and binding arbitration before JAMS, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”) in effect as of July 15, 2009, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.1(d):

(i) Arbitration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1(d) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for resolution of the Section 2.5 Dispute.

(ii) There shall be one neutral arbitrator. The parties shall jointly nominate a person to serve as the sole arbitrator within thirty (30) days from the date of this Agreement. If, for any reason, such agreed upon arbitrator is unavailable or unwilling to serve as sole arbitrator, JAMS shall appoint, without resort to the procedures set forth in Rules 12(b)-(f) of the Rules, a retired United States federal judge to be the sole arbitrator, such appointment to be made within seven (7) calendar days of the filing of the demand for arbitration. It shall be a condition of the arbitrator’s acceptance of his/her appointment as sole arbitrator that he/she shall be available to conduct the arbitration in accordance with the expedited timetable contemplated by this Section 10.1(d).

(iii) The language of the arbitration shall be English. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York.

(iv) The arbitration shall proceed on the following timetable unless otherwise agreed by the parties:

(1) On or before December 17, 2012 (or to the extent that the Second Closing has not occurred by December 17, 2012, seven days after the Second Closing Date), the party initiating such arbitration shall file with JAMS and serve on the other party its demand for arbitration, which shall include all supporting documents and witness statements on which it intends to rely in the arbitration;

(2) Four days thereafter, the party that did not initiate such arbitration shall submit its defense, which shall include all supporting documents and witnesses statements on which it intends to rely in the arbitration;

(3) Ten days thereafter, the party initiating such arbitration shall submit any reply papers;

(4) Seven days thereafter, expert reports, if any, shall be exchanged;

(5) Unless expedited discovery is ordered as appropriate by the arbitrator, there shall be no discovery in connection with the arbitration. Up until the date of the commencement of the merits hearing, the parties shall be obligated to provide any additional documents on which they intend to rely at the hearing. Documents not exchanged before the merits hearing, or witnesses and experts that were not previously identified and who have not submitted witness statements, may not be considered by the arbitrator at the hearing, unless agreed upon by the parties or upon a showing of good cause;

(6) A hearing on the merits shall be held in New York, New York and shall commence no later than 31 days after such arbitration was initiated. The merits hearing shall be conducted over consecutive calendar days (including weekends) and shall last no more than three calendar days;

(7) The parties may, subject to the discretion of the arbitrator, each simultaneously submit one post-hearing brief on or before the date that is 5 days after the hearing on the merits occurred; and

(8) The arbitrator shall render the final award on or prior to the date that is 10 days after the hearing on the merits occurred.

(v) The prevailing party, as determined by the arbitrator, shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees from the non-prevailing party.

(vi) The only issue to be considered and determined in any proceeding brought under this Section 10.1(d) shall be whether the Purchaser is obligated to consummate the transactions contemplated by Section 2.5 above and the arbitrator shall have no power to determine any other issue.

(vii) The parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including but not limited to any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, any documents disclosed by one party to another, testimony or other oral submission and any awards or decisions) shall not be disclosed beyond the arbitrator, JAMS, the parties, their legal and professional advisors, and any person necessary for the conduct of the arbitration, except as may be lawfully required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or otherwise required by Law.

(viii) Any final award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered as a judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree for the purpose of the enforcement of any arbitral award issued hereunder to submit to the jurisdiction of any court in any jurisdiction in which such party has assets, and for such purpose waive any defense of absence of jurisdiction in any such court for such purpose.

Section 10.2. Amendments

This Agreement may not be amended or modified except pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Purchaser.

Section 10.3. Waiver

No waiver of any term, provision or condition of this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or be construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, provision or condition or as a waiver of any other term, provision or condition of this Agreement.

Section 10.4. Expenses

Each party will bear its own Expenses in connection with this Agreement.

Section 10.5. Assignment

The rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the authorized successors and permitted assigns of each party. No party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement or designate another person (i) to perform all or part of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) to have all or part of its rights and benefits under this Agreement, in each case without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided that the Purchaser may assign any of its rights, benefits and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate thereof without the consent of the Company, but such assignment shall not relieve the Purchaser of any obligation or liability hereunder. Any assignment in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.5 shall be valid only where the assignee agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Agreement by executing and agreeing to an assumption agreement reasonably acceptable to the other parties.

Section 10.6. Counterpart

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

Section 10.7. Entire Agreement

This Agreement, the other Operative Agreements and certain side letters entered into by the Company and the Purchaser on the date hereof constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, negotiations, understandings, representations and statements relating to the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral.

Section 10.8. Costs of Enforcement

In the event that legal proceedings are commenced by any party to this Agreement against any other party to this Agreement in connection with this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement, the non-prevailing party in such proceedings shall pay the reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party in such proceedings.

Section 10.9. Mutual Drafting

This Agreement shall be deemed to be the joint work product of the Company and the Purchaser, and any rule of construction that a document shall be interpreted or construed against a drafter of such document shall not be applicable.

Section 10.10. Obligations That Do Not Fall on Business Days.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any payment obligation under this Agreement, or any of the dates specified in Section 2.5 below, are to occur on a day that is not a Business Day, such obligation or date shall be the next following Business Day.

SCHEDULE 3

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES

The following are the terms and conditions in the form in which they will be endorsed on the Notes:

The issue of the Notes was authorised by a resolution of the Board of Directors of Central European Distribution Corporation (the “Issuer”) passed on April 17, 2012. A fiscal agency agreement dated [•] 2012 (the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”) has been entered into in relation to the Notes between the Issuer, [•] as fiscal agent and principal paying and transfer agent and [•], as registrar and a paying and transfer agent. The fiscal agent, the paying and transfer agents and the registrar for the time being are referred to below respectively as the “Fiscal Agent”, the “Paying and Transfer Agents” and the “Registrar”. The expression “Paying and Transfer Agents” shall include the Fiscal Agent. The Fiscal Agency Agreement includes the form of the Notes. Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement are available for inspection during normal business hours at the specified offices of the Paying and Transfer Agents. The holders of Notes (the “Noteholders”) are deemed to have notice of all the provisions of the Fiscal Agency Agreement applicable to them.

1.	FORM, DENOMINATION, TITLE AND STATUS

1.1	Form and denomination

The Notes are in registered form, serially numbered and in principal amounts of U.S. $150,000 and integral multiples of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof (each, an “authorised denomination”).

1.2

Title

Title to the Notes will pass by transfer and registration as described in Condition 2. The holder (as defined below) of any Note will (except as otherwise required by law or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction) be treated as its absolute owner for all purposes (whether or not it is overdue and regardless of any notice of ownership, trust or any interest in it or its theft or loss (or that of the related certificate, as appropriate) or anything written on it or on the certificate in respect of it (other than a duly executed transfer thereof)) and no person will be liable for so treating the holder. For this purpose, “holder” shall mean the person in whose name a Note is registered in the Register (as defined in Condition 2.1), which shall initially be the nominee of Euroclear.

2.	REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF NOTES

2.1	Registration

The Issuer will cause a register (the “Register”) to be kept at the specified office of the Registrar outside the United Kingdom (which shall act as an agent of the Issuer for this purpose) on which will be entered the names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the particulars of the Notes held by them and of all transfers and redemptions of Notes.

2.2	Transfer

(a)

Definitive Notes

SCHEDULE 5

REGULATIONS CONCERNING THE TRANSFER

AND REGISTRATION OF THE NOTES

1.	Each Note shall be in the minimum denomination of U.S. $150,000 and integral multiples of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof. Note Certificates, each evidencing entitlement to one or more Notes, shall be issued in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of the Notes (the “Conditions”).

The Notes are transferable by execution of the form of transfer on each Note Certificate endorsed under the hand of the transferor or, where the transferor is a corporation, under its common seal or under the hand of its duly authorised officer or officers. In this Schedule “transferor” shall where the context permits or requires include joint transferors and be construed accordingly.

The Note Certificate issued in respect of the Notes to be transferred must be delivered for registration to the office of a Paying and Transfer Agent accompanied by such other evidence (including, in connection with transfers made pursuant to certain securities law exemptions identified in the restrictive legend on the Notes, certificates and legal opinions) as such Paying and Transfer Agent may reasonably require to prove the title of the transferor or his right to transfer the relevant Notes and his identity and, if the form of transfer is executed by some other person on his behalf or in the case of the execution of a form of transfer on behalf of a corporation by its officers, the authority of that person or those persons to do so. The signature of the person effecting a transfer of a Note shall conform to any list of duly authorised specimen signatures supplied by the registered holder or be certified by a recognised bank, notary public or in such other manner as the Agent may require.

The executors or administrators of a deceased holder of the Notes (not being one of several joint holders) and in the case of the death of one or more of joint holders the survivor or survivors of such joint holders shall be the only persons recognised by the Issuer as having any title to such Notes.

Any person becoming entitled to the Notes in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of the holder of such Notes may, upon producing such evidence that he holds the position in respect of which he proposes to act under this paragraph or of his title as the Paying and Transfer Agent shall require (including certificates and legal opinions), be registered himself as the holder of such Notes or, subject to the preceding paragraphs as to transfer, may transfer such Notes. The Issuer and the Agents may retain any amount payable upon the Notes to which any person is so entitled until such person shall be so registered or shall duly transfer the Notes.

6.	Unless otherwise requested by him and agreed by the Issuer, a holder of the Notes shall be entitled to receive only one Note Certificate in respect of his holding.

7.	The joint holders of a Note shall be entitled to one Note Certificate only in respect of their joint holding which shall, except where they otherwise direct, be delivered to the joint holder whose name appears first in the Register in respect of the joint holding.

The Issuer and the Paying and Transfer Agents shall make no charge to the holders for the registration of any holding of the Notes or any transfer of the Notes or for the issue of any Note Certificates or for the delivery of Note Certificates at the specified office of the Agent to whom the request for registration, transfer or delivery was delivered or by uninsured post to the address specified by the holder. If any holder entitled to receive a Note Certificate wishes to have it delivered to him otherwise than at the specified office of such Agent, such delivery shall be made upon his written request to such Agent, at his risk and (except where sent by uninsured post to the address specified by the holder) at his expense.

Each Paying and Transfer Agent will within three business days (as defined in Condition 4.4) of receipt of a request to effect a transfer of a Note (or within 5 business days if the transfer is of a Note evidenced by the Global Note) deliver at its specified office to the transferee or despatch by mail (at the risk of the transferee) to such address as the transferee may request, a new Note Certificate in respect of the Notes transferred. In the case of a transfer of fewer than all the Notes in respect of which a Note Certificate is issued, a new Note Certificate in respect of the Notes not transferred will be so delivered to the holder to its address appearing on the Register.

10.

Unless there is delivered to a Paying and Transfer Agent such satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of legal counsel, as may be reasonably required by the Issuer, that neither the Securities Act legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act, in accordance with applicable laws, all Notes or Note Certificates, as the case may be, issued in replacement for or on exchange or transfer of the Notes or Note Certificates, as the case may be, bearing the Securities Act legend, will bear such legend.

11.	Unless and until otherwise determined by the Issuer, in accordance with applicable law, all Notes or Note Certificates, issued in substitution for or on exchange or transfer of the Notes or Note Certificates, as the case may be, that do not bear the Securities Act legend will not bear such legend.

12.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Registrar shall register the transfer of any Notes only upon presentation of an executed and duly completed form of transfer substantially in the form set forth in Schedule IV of the form of the Global Note set out in Schedule 2 to the Fiscal Agency Agreement together with any other documents thereby required. Nothing herein shall require the Registrar to register any transfer during a closed period.

13.	The Registrar and the Paying and Transfer Agents may promulgate any other regulations that they may deem necessary for the registration and transfer of the Notes.

5.	Distribution of Escrow Property and Upon Termination

(a)

Whenever the Escrow Agent will be required to make a payment from the Cash Escrow Funds, the Escrow Agent will pay such amounts by liquidating such investments of the Cash Escrow Funds as will be directed in writing by the Depositors; provided, however, that if the Depositors have not furnished such direction to the Escrow Agent upon delivery of the certificate or other documentation delivered pursuant to Section I.3, the Escrow Agent will pay such amounts by liquidating such investments of the Cash Escrow Funds as will be determined by the Escrow Agent in its sole discretion.

(b)

After such time when the Escrow Funds have been deposited with the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Escrow Agreement, this Escrow Agreement shall be automatically terminated upon the earlier to occur of (i) March 18, 2013 and (ii) the date on which all Escrow Property has been distributed; provided, that the Escrow Agreement may also be terminated at any time by a written agreement executed by each of the Depositors. In the event of a termination of the Escrow Agreement pursuant to clause (i) of this Section I.5(b), all Cash Escrow Funds shall be returned to the Investor in accordance with the wire instructions set forth in Exhibit 3(b), and the Backstop Documentation shall be returned to the Company at the address set forth in Section I.4 above.

6.	Compensation

2.	This Escrow Agreement is for the exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns hereunder, and shall not be deemed to give, either express or implied, any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim to any other entity or person whatsoever.

(a) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted or for any loss or injury resulting from its actions or its performance or lack of performance of its duties hereunder in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part. In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable (i) for acting in accordance with or relying upon any written instruction, notice, demand, certificate or document from the Depositors, (ii) for any consequential, punitive or special damages, (iii) for the acts or omissions of its nominees, correspondents, designees, subagents or subcustodians in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on their parts, or (iv) for an amount in excess of the value of the Escrow Property.

(b) The Escrow Agent may consult legal counsel of its own choosing in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of this Escrow Agreement, or the Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, and the Escrow Agent will incur no liability and will be fully protected with respect to any action taken or omitted in good faith in accordance with the reasonable opinion and instructions of such counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be entitled to reimbursement of the expenses of such counsel with respect to any matter arising from the Escrow Agent’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) The Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Escrow Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility).

-7-

If the Escrow Agent complies with any such judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity even though such order, judgment, decree, writ or process may be subsequently modified or vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect.

4.	[INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

The Escrow Agent shall provide to Depositors monthly statements identifying transactions, transfers or holdings of the Escrow Property and each such statement shall be deemed to be correct and final upon receipt thereof by the Depositors unless the Escrow Agent is notified in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) business days of the date of such statement.

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 Company and the Investor shall each be liable for and shall reimburse and indemnify the Escrow Agent and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against one-half of any and all Escrow-Related Losses that are incurred by it as a result of its involvement in any arbitration or litigation arising from the performance of its duties hereunder, provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall require the Escrow Agent to be indemnified for Escrow-Related Losses caused by its bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Within ten (10) calendar days after giving the foregoing notice of removal to the Escrow Agent or receiving the foregoing notice of resignation from the Escrow Agent, the Depositors shall jointly agree on and appoint a successor escrow agent. If the Depositors are unable to agree on a successor escrow agent within such 10-day period or if the chosen successor to the escrow agent has not

-8-

accepted such appointment by the end of such 10-day period, the Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor to the Escrow Agent or for other appropriate relief. One-half of the costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by the Investor and the Company.

(b) Upon receipt of the identity of the successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall either deliver the Escrow Property then held hereunder to the successor escrow agent, less the Escrow Agent’s fees, costs and expenses or other obligations owed to the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement, or hold such Escrow Property (or any portion thereof), pending distribution, until all such fees, costs and expenses or other obligations are paid.

(c) Upon delivery of the Escrow Property to the successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall have no further duties, responsibilities or obligations hereunder.

10.

(a) 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 retain possession of the Escrow Property, unless the Escrow Agent receives written instructions, signed by all Depositors, which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty.

(b) In the event of any dispute between or conflicting claims by or among the Depositors with respect to any Escrow Property, 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 Property so long as such dispute or conflict shall continue, and the Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way to the Depositors 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 or arbitral tribunal, 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 Escrow-Related Losses which it may incur by reason of so acting. 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 the obligation of, the Company and the Investor (with each such party being responsible for one-half of such costs and expenses).

12.	Except as otherwise permitted herein, this Escrow Agreement may be modified only by a written amendment signed by all the parties hereto, and no waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless expressed in a writing signed by the party to be charged.

13.

The rights and remedies conferred upon the parties hereto shall be cumulative, and the exercise or waiver of any such right or remedy shall not preclude or inhibit the exercise of any additional rights or remedies.
