ESCROW AGREEMENT
ESCROW AGREEMENT ("Agreement") dated [Closing Date] by and among JUNIPER
PARTNERS ACQUISITION CORP., a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), XXXXXXX X. XXXXX,
AS THE TARGET STOCKHOLDERS' REPRESENTATIVE, being the representative of the
former stockholders of FIRESTONE COMMUNICATIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation
(the "Representative"), and CONTINENTAL STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY, as
escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent").
Parent, Firestone Communications, Inc. ("Target"), certain of the
stockholders of Target, and Firecomm Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Subsidiary"), are the parties to
an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated as of August 15, 2006
(the "Merger Agreement") pursuant to which the Merger Subsidiary has merged with
and into Target so that Target has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Parent is to be indemnified in certain
respects. The parties desire to establish an escrow fund as collateral security
for the indemnification obligations under the Merger Agreement. The
Representative has been designated pursuant to the Merger Agreement to represent
those former stockholders of Target (the "Stockholders") who are depositing
shares of Parent Common Stock in escrow pursuant to this Agreement and each
Permitted Transferee (as hereinafter defined) of the Stockholders (the
Stockholders and all such Permitted Transferees are hereinafter referred to
collectively as the "Owners"), and to act on their behalf for purposes of this
Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.
The parties agree as follows:
1. (a) Concurrently with the execution hereof, each of the Stockholders is
delivering to the Escrow Agent, to be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement, stock certificates issued in the name of such Stockholder
representing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock received by such
Stockholder pursuant to the Merger Agreement set forth in Schedule A annexed
hereto totaling 10% of all shares of Parent Common Stock issued in the Merger,
together with ten (10) assignments separate from certificate, executed in blank
by such Stockholder, with medallion signature guaranties. The shares of Parent
Common Stock represented by the stock certificates so delivered by the
Stockholders to the Escrow Agent are herein referred to in the aggregate as the
"Escrow Fund." The Escrow Agent shall maintain a separate account for each
Stockholder's, and subsequent to any transfer permitted pursuant to Paragraph
1(e) hereof, each Owner's, portion of the Escrow Fund.
(b) The Escrow Agent hereby agrees to act as escrow agent and to hold,
safeguard and disburse the Escrow Fund pursuant to the terms and conditions
hereof. It shall treat the Escrow Fund as a trust fund in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement and not as the property of Parent. The Escrow Agent's
duties hereunder shall
terminate upon its distribution of the entire Escrow Fund in accordance with
this Agreement.
(c) Except as herein provided, the Owners shall retain all of their
rights as stockholders of Parent with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock
constituting the Escrow Fund during the period beginning on the date hereof and
ending on the thirtieth day after the date that Parent files its Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 (the "Escrow Period"),
including, without limitation, the right to vote their shares of Parent Common
Stock included in the Escrow Fund.
(d) During the Escrow Period, all dividends payable in cash with
respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock included in the Escrow Fund shall
be paid to the Owners, but all dividends payable in stock or other non-cash
property ("Non-Cash Dividends") shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold
in accordance with the terms hereof. As used herein, the term "Escrow Fund"
shall be deemed to include the Non-Cash Dividends distributed thereon, if any.
(e) During the Escrow Period, no sale, transfer or other disposition
may be made of any or all of the shares of Parent Common Stock in the Escrow
Fund except (i) to a "Permitted Transferee" (as hereinafter defined), (ii) by
virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of any Owner, or (iii)
pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; provided, however, that such
permissive transfers may be implemented only upon the respective transferee's
written agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. As
used in this Agreement, the term "Permitted Transferee" shall include: (x)
members of a Stockholder's "Immediate Family" (as hereinafter defined); (y) an
entity in which (A) a Stockholder and/or members of a Stockholder's Immediate
Family beneficially own 100% of such entity's voting and non-voting equity
securities, or (B) a Stockholder and/or a member of such Stockholder's Immediate
Family is a general partner and in which such Stockholder and/or members of such
Stockholder's Immediate Family beneficially own 100% of all capital accounts of
such entity; and (z) a revocable trust established by a Stockholder during his
lifetime for the benefit of such Stockholder or for the exclusive benefit of all
or any of such Stockholder's Immediate Family. As used in this Agreement, the
term "Immediate Family" means, with respect to any Stockholder, a spouse,
parents, lineal descendants, the spouse of any lineal descendant, and brothers
and sisters (or a trust, all of whose current beneficiaries are members of an
Immediate Family of the Stockholder). In connection with and as a condition to
each permitted transfer, the Permitted Transferee shall deliver to the Escrow
Agent an assignment separate from certificate executed by the transferring
Stockholder with medallion signature guaranty, or where applicable, an order of
a court of competent jurisdiction, evidencing the transfer of shares to the
Permitted Transferee, together with ten (10) assignments separate from
certificate executed in blank by the Permitted Transferee with respect to the
shares transferred to the Permitted Transferee, with medallion signature
guaranties. Upon receipt of such documents, the Escrow Agent shall deliver to
Parent the original stock certificate out of which the assigned shares are to be
transferred, together with the executed assignment separate from certificate
executed by the transferring Stockholder, or a copy of the applicable court
order, and shall request that Parent issue new certificates representing (m) the
number of shares, if any, that continue to be owned by the
2
transferring Stockholder, and (n) the number of shares owned by the Permitted
Transferee as the result of such transfer. Parent, the transferring Stockholder
and the Permitted Transferee shall cooperate in all respects with the Escrow
Agent in documenting each such transfer and in effectuating the result intended
to be accomplished thereby. During the Escrow Period, no Owner shall pledge or
grant a security interest in such Owner's shares of Parent Common Stock included
in the Escrow Fund or grant a security interest in such Owner's rights under
this Agreement.
2. (a) Parent, acting through the current or former member or members of
Parent's Board of Directors who has or have been appointed by Parent to take all
necessary actions and make all decisions on behalf of Parent with respect to its
and Target's rights to indemnification under Article VII of the Merger Agreement
(the "Committee"), may make a claim for indemnification pursuant to the Merger
Agreement ("Indemnity Claim") against the Escrow Fund by giving notice (a
"Notice") to the Representative (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) specifying (i)
the covenant, representation, warranty, agreement, undertaking or obligation
contained in the Merger Agreement which it asserts has been breached or
otherwise entitles Parent or Target to indemnification, (ii) in reasonable
detail, the nature and dollar amount of any Indemnity Claim, and (iii) whether
the Indemnity Claim results from a Third Party Claim against Parent or Target.
The Committee also shall deliver to the Escrow Agent (with a copy to the
Representative), concurrently with its delivery to the Escrow Agent of the
Notice, a certification as to the date on which the Notice was delivered to the
Representative.
(b) If the Representative shall give a notice to the Committee (with a
copy to the Escrow Agent) (a "Counter Notice"), within 30 days following the
date of receipt (as specified in the Committee's certification) by the
Representative of a copy of the Notice, disputing whether the Indemnity Claim is
indemnifiable under the Merger Agreement, the Committee and the Representative
shall attempt to resolve such dispute by voluntary settlement as provided in
paragraph 2(c) below. If no Counter Notice with respect to an Indemnity Claim is
received by the Escrow Agent from the Representative within such 30-day period,
the Indemnity Claim shall be deemed to be an Established Claim (as hereinafter
defined) for purposes of this Agreement.
(c) If the Representative delivers a Counter Notice to the Escrow
Agent, the Committee and the Representative shall, during the period of 60 days
following the delivery of such Counter Notice or such greater period of time as
the parties may agree to in writing (with a copy to the Escrow Agent), attempt
to resolve the dispute with respect to which the Counter Notice was given. If
the Committee and the Representative shall reach a settlement with respect to
any such dispute, they shall jointly deliver written notice of such settlement
to the Escrow Agent specifying the terms thereof. If the Committee and the
Representative shall be unable to reach a settlement with respect to a dispute,
such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration pursuant to paragraph 2(d) below.
(d) If the Committee and the Representative cannot resolve a dispute
prior to expiration of the 60-day period referred to in paragraph 2(c) above (or
such longer period as the parties may have agreed to in writing), then such
dispute shall be
3
submitted (and either party may submit such dispute) for arbitration before a
single arbitrator in New York City, in accordance with the commercial
arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect and the
provisions of Section 10.12 of the Merger Agreement to the extent that such
provisions do not conflict with the provisions of this paragraph. The Committee
and the Representative shall attempt to agree upon an arbitrator; if they shall
be unable to agree upon an arbitrator within 10 days after the dispute is
submitted for arbitration, then either the Committee or the Representative, upon
written notice to the other, may apply for appointment of such arbitrator by the
American Arbitration Association. Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of
counsel used by it and 50% of the fees and expenses of the arbitrator and of
other expenses of the arbitration. The arbitrator shall render his decision
within 90 days after his appointment and may award costs to either the Committee
or the Representative if, in his sole opinion reasonably exercised, the claims
made by any other party had no reasonable basis and were arbitrary and
capricious. Such decision and award shall be in writing and shall be final and
conclusive on the parties, and counterpart copies thereof shall be delivered to
each of the parties. Judgment may be obtained on the decision of the arbitrator
so rendered in any New York state court sitting in New York County, or any
federal court sitting in New York County having jurisdiction, and may be
enforced in accordance with the law of the State of New York. If the arbitrator
shall fail to render his decision or award within such 90-day period, either the
Committee or the Representative may apply to any New York state court sitting in
New York County, or any federal court sitting in New York County then having
jurisdiction, by action, proceeding or otherwise, as may be proper to determine
the matter in dispute consistently with the provisions of this Agreement. The
parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York state courts
sitting in New York County, New York, or any federal court having jurisdiction
and sitting in New York County, New York, for this purpose. The prevailing party
(or either party, in the case of a decision or award rendered in part for each
party) shall send a copy of the arbitration decision or of any judgment of the
court to the Escrow Agent.
(e) As used in this Agreement, "Established Claim" means any (i)
Indemnification Claim deemed established pursuant to the last sentence of
paragraph 2(b) above, (ii) Indemnification Claim resolved in favor of Parent or
Target by settlement pursuant to paragraph 2(c) above, resulting in a dollar
award to Parent or Target, (iii) Indemnification Claim established by the
decision of an arbitrator pursuant to paragraph 2(d) above, resulting in a
dollar award to Parent, (iv) Third Party Claim that has been sustained by a
final determination (after exhaustion of any appeals) of a court of competent
jurisdiction, or (v) Third Party Claim that the Committee and the Representative
have jointly notified the Escrow Agent has been settled in accordance with the
provisions of the Merger Agreement.
(f) (i) Promptly after an Indemnity Claim becomes an Established Claim,
the Committee and the Representative shall jointly deliver a notice to the
Escrow Agent (a "Joint Notice") directing the Escrow Agent to pay to Parent, and
the Escrow Agent promptly shall pay to Parent, an amount equal to the aggregate
dollar amount of the Established Claim (or, if at such time there remains in the
Escrow Fund less than the full amount so payable, the full amount remaining in
the Escrow Fund).
4
(ii) Payment of an Established Claim shall be made in shares of
Parent Common Stock, pro rata from the account maintained on behalf of each
Owner. For purposes of each payment, such shares shall be valued at the "Fair
Market Value" (as defined below). However, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be
required to calculate Fair Market Value or make a determination of the number of
shares to be delivered to Parent in satisfaction of any Established Claim;
rather, such calculation shall be included in and made part of the Joint Notice.
The Escrow Agent shall transfer to Parent out of the Escrow Fund that number of
shares of Parent Common Stock necessary to satisfy each Established Claim, as
set out in the Joint Notice. Any dispute between the Committee and the
Representative concerning the calculation of Fair Market Value or the number of
shares necessary to satisfy any Established Claim, or any other dispute
regarding a Joint Notice, shall be resolved between the Committee and the
Representative in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph 2(d)
above, and shall not involve the Escrow Agent. Each transfer of shares in
satisfaction of an Established Claim shall be made by the Escrow Agent
delivering to Parent one or more stock certificates held in each Owner's account
evidencing not less than such Owner's pro rata portion of the aggregate number
of shares specified in the Joint Notice, together with assignments separate from
certificate executed in blank by such Owner and completed by the Escrow Agent in
accordance with instructions included in the Joint Notice. Upon receipt of the
stock certificates and assignments, Parent shall deliver to the Escrow Agent new
certificates representing the number of shares owned by each Owner after such
payment. The parties hereto (other than the Escrow Agent) agree that the
foregoing right to make payments of Established Claims in shares of Parent
Common Stock may be made notwithstanding any other agreements restricting or
limiting the ability of any Owner to sell any shares of Parent stock or
otherwise. The Committee and the Representative shall be required to exercise
utmost good faith in all matters relating to the preparation and delivery of
each Joint Notice. As used herein, "Fair Market Value" means the average
reported closing price for the Parent Common Stock for the ten trading days
ending on the last trading day prior to the day the Established Claim is paid.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at such
time as an Indemnification Claim has become an Established Claim, the
Representative shall have the right to substitute for the Escrow Shares that
otherwise would be paid in satisfaction of such claim (the "Claim Shares"), cash
in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Claim Shares ("Substituted
Cash"). In such event (i) the Joint Notice shall include a statement describing
the substitution of Substituted Cash for the Claim Shares, and (ii)
substantially contemporaneously with the delivery of such Joint Notice, the
Representative shall cause currently available funds to be delivered to the
Escrow Agent in an amount equal to the Substituted Cash. Upon receipt of such
Joint Notice and Substituted Cash, the Escrow Agent shall (y) in payment of the
Established Claim described in the Joint Notice, deliver the Substituted Cash to
Parent in lieu of the Claim Shares, and (z) cause the Claim Shares to be
returned to the Representative.
3. On the first Business Day after the expiration of the Escrow Period,
upon receipt of a Joint Notice, the Escrow Agent shall distribute and deliver to
each Owner certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock then in
such Owner's account in the Escrow Fund, unless at such time there are any
Indemnity Claims
5
with respect to which Notices have been received but which have not been
resolved pursuant to Section 2 hereof or in respect of which the Escrow Agent
has not been notified of, and received a copy of, a final determination (after
exhaustion of any appeals) by a court of competent jurisdiction, as the case may
be (in either case, "Pending Claims"), and which, if resolved or finally
determined in favor of Parent, would result in a payment to Parent, in which
case the Escrow Agent shall retain, and the total amount of such distributions
to such Owner shall be reduced by, the "Pending Claims Reserve" (as hereafter
defined). The Committee shall certify to the Escrow Agent the Fair Market Value
to be used in calculating the Pending Claims Reserve and the number of shares of
Parent Common Stock to be retained therefor. Thereafter, if any Pending Claim
becomes an Established Claim, the Committee and the Representative shall deliver
to the Escrow Agent a Joint Notice directing the Escrow Agent to pay to Parent
an amount in respect thereof determined in accordance with paragraph 2(f) above,
and to deliver to each Owner shares of Parent Common Stock then in such owner's
account in the Escrow Fund having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount by
which the remaining portion of his account in the Escrow Fund exceeds the then
Pending Claims Reserve (determined as set forth below), all as specified in a
Joint Notice. If any Pending Claim is resolved against Parent, the Committee and
the Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a Joint Notice directing
the Escrow Agent to pay to each Owner the amount by which the remaining portion
of his account in the Escrow Fund exceeds the then Pending Claims Reserve. Upon
resolution of all Pending Claims, the Committee and the Representative shall
deliver to the Escrow Agent a Joint Notice directing the Escrow Agent shall pay
to such Owner the remaining portion of his or her account in the Escrow Fund.
As used herein, the "Pending Claims Reserve" shall mean, at the time any
such determination is made, that number of shares of Parent Common Stock in the
Escrow Fund having a Fair Market Value equal to the sum of the aggregate dollar
amounts claimed to be due with respect to all Pending Claims (as shown in the
Notices of such Claims).
4. The Escrow Agent, the Committee and the Representative shall cooperate
in all respects with one another in the calculation of any amounts determined to
be payable to Parent and the Owners in accordance with this Agreement and in
implementing the procedures necessary to effect such payments.
5. (a) The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are
expressly set forth herein. It is understood that the Escrow Agent is not a
trustee or fiduciary and is acting hereunder merely in a ministerial capacity.
(b) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or
omitted by it in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, and
may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice,
demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by
the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not
only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its
provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information
therein contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be
signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not
be
6
bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or
rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the
Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights
of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written
consent thereto.
(c) The Escrow Agent's sole responsibility upon receipt of any notice
requiring any payment to Parent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or, if
such notice is disputed by the Committee or the Representative, the settlement
with respect to any such dispute, whether by virtue of joint resolution,
arbitration or determination of a court of competent jurisdiction, is to pay to
Parent the amount specified in such notice, and the Escrow Agent shall have no
duty to determine the validity, authenticity or enforceability of any
specification or certification made in such notice.
(d) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it in
good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the rights or powers
conferred upon it by this Agreement, and may consult with counsel of its own
choice and shall have full and complete authorization and indemnification under
Section 5(g), below, for any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good
faith and in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.
(e) The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from its
duties as escrow agent hereunder by its giving the other parties hereto written
notice and such resignation shall become effective as hereinafter provided. Such
resignation shall become effective at such time that the Escrow Agent shall turn
over the Escrow Fund to a successor escrow agent appointed jointly by the
Committee and the Representative. If no new escrow agent is so appointed within
the 60 day period following the giving of such notice of resignation, the Escrow
Agent may deposit the Escrow Fund with any court it reasonably deems
appropriate.
(f) In the event of a dispute between the parties as to the proper
disposition of the Escrow Fund, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled (but not
required) to deliver the Escrow Fund into the United States District Court for
the Southern District of New York and, upon giving notice to the Committee and
the Representative of such action, shall thereupon be relieved of all further
responsibility and liability.
(g) The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless by Parent
from and against any expenses, including counsel fees and disbursements, or loss
suffered by the Escrow Agent in connection with any action, suit or other
proceeding involving any claim which in any way, directly or indirectly, arises
out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder,
or the Escrow Fund held by it hereunder, other than expenses or losses arising
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent. Promptly
after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the
commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify
the other parties hereto in writing. In the event of the receipt of such notice,
the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, may commence an action in the nature
of interpleader in an appropriate court to determine ownership or disposition of
the Escrow
7
Fund or it may deposit the Escrow Fund with the clerk of any appropriate court
and be relieved of any liability with respect thereto or it may retain the
Escrow Fund pending receipt of a final, non-appealable order of a court having
jurisdiction over all of the parties hereto directing to whom and under what
circumstances the Escrow Fund are to be disbursed and delivered.
(h) The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reasonable compensation from
Parent for all services rendered by it hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall also be
entitled to reimbursement from Parent for all expenses paid or incurred by it in
the administration of its duties hereunder including, but not limited to, all
counsel, advisors' and agents' fees and disbursements and all taxes or other
governmental charges.
(i) From time to time on and after the date hereof, the Committee and
the Representative shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent
such further documents and instruments and shall do or cause to be done such
further acts as the Escrow Agent shall reasonably request to carry out more
effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement, to evidence
compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is protected in acting
hereunder.
(j) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Escrow Agent
shall not be relieved from liability hereunder for its own gross negligence or
its own willful misconduct.
6. This Agreement expressly sets forth all the duties of the Escrow Agent
with respect to any and all matters pertinent hereto. No implied duties or
obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent. The
Escrow Agent shall not be bound by the provisions of any agreement among the
parties hereto except this Agreement and shall have no duty to inquire into the
terms and conditions of any agreement made or entered into in connection with
this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Merger Agreement.
7. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
