Subject to the provisions of this Article VII , Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates and their respective equity holders, officers, directors, managers, employees, representatives and agents (collectively, the “ Seller Indemnitees ”) from and against, and pay or reimburse the Seller Indemnitees for, any and all Damages incurred, suffered or sustained by the Seller Indemnitees arising out of or relating to: (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties made in Article IV , (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Buyer made herein and (iii) any Assumed Liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be liable to indemnify any Seller Indemnitees against Damages arising under clause Section 7.3 (i) above unless and until the aggregate amount of such Damages exceeds the Threshold Amount, whereupon the Seller Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for the full amount of such Damages; provided, however, that Buyer’s maximum Liability to the Seller Indemnitees for all Damages arising under Section 7.3 (i) above shall not exceed the Maximum Amount; provided, further, however, that the Threshold Amount and Maximum Amount shall not apply with respect to Damages arising out of any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.1 (Organization and Related Matters), 4.2(a) (Authority) and 4.3 (No Broker), in which case Buyer’s maximum Liability to the Seller Indemnitees shall not exceed the Purchase Price. The limitations set forth in this Section 7.3 shall not apply in respect of any indemnification obligation arising out of or resulting from fraud or willful misrepresentation by Buyer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for purposes of determining the amount of any Damages related to a breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement, the representations and warranties made by Buyer in this Agreement shall be considered without regard to any “material,” “Material Adverse Effect” or any similar term or limitation contained therein (and shall be treated as if such words were deleted from such representation or warranty).

Section 7.4 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Promptly after the incurrence of any Damages by the party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “ Indemnified Party ”), including any claim by or communication from a third-party described in Section 7.4(c) hereof that would be reasonably likely to give rise to indemnification hereunder, or the earlier discovery of any facts or circumstances that would be reasonably likely to result in an indemnification claim hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the party from which indemnification is sought (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) a notice (the “ Claim Notice ”), which Claim Notice shall be delivered within the relevant Survival Period; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VII except to the extent (and only to the extent) that the Indemnifying Party forfeits material rights or defenses by reason of such failure, and shall:

(i) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or properly accrued Damages, or anticipates (specifying the events or occurrences giving rise to such anticipation) that it is reasonably likely that it will incur Liability for Damages for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and

(ii) specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Damages included in the amount so stated to the extent known, the date such item was paid or properly accrued (if applicable), the basis for any anticipated Liability and the nature of the breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and the computation of the amount, if reasonably capable of computation, to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder.

(b) Claims for Damages specified in any Claim Notice with respect to which the parties agree in writing to be due, or which are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be due, are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “ Agreed Claims .” Within ten (10) Business Days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claim, subject to the limitations of this Article VII , the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Agreed Claim by cashier’s check or Wire Transfer to the bank account or accounts designated in writing by the Indemnified Party not less than one (1) Business Day prior to such payment.

(c) Promptly after the assertion by any third-party of any claim against any Indemnified Party that may result in the incurrence by such Indemnified Party of Damages for which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement and within the relevant Survival Period, such Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party a Claim Notice; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VII except to the extent (and only to the extent) that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure, and the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Notice to elect, at its option, to assume and control the defense of, at its own expense and by its own counsel, such claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assert any and all defenses available to the Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law; provided that (i) such Indemnifying Party’s counsel is not reasonably objected to by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall not have been advised by counsel that an actual or potential conflict of interest makes representation by the same counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party inappropriate and (ii) the Indemnifying Party first enters into a written agreement with the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party is unconditionally obligated to pay and satisfy any Damages which may arise with respect to such third-party claim and provides evidence of its ability to satisfy such obligation, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party shall, in accordance with the previous sentence, undertake to compromise or defend any such claim, it shall reasonably promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party agrees in such case to cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the compromise of, or defense against, any such claim. Notwithstanding an election by the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such action or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in, but not control, the defense of such action or proceeding. The Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if, but only if, (A) the Indemnifying Party shall have authorized in writing (which authorization shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) the Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and/or (B) such fees or expenses of such separate counsel are incurred prior to the date the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense, provided that the engagement of counsel by the Indemnified Party prior to such time was reasonably necessary to preserve any potential rights or defenses with respect to such third-party claim. In any event, the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party and their counsel shall cooperate in the defense of any such claim subject to this Section 7.4(c) and keep such Persons informed of all developments relating to any such claims, and provide copies of all relevant correspondence and documentation relating thereto. If the Indemnifying Party receiving such Claim Notice does not elect within thirty (30) days to defend such third-party claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, to defend such claim. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any settlement of any such action or claim effected without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, but if settled with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any Damages by reason of such settlement or judgment, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VII . If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of any claim in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4(c) , the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of such claim, but only if: (1) the settlement does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim, (2) the settlement is in excess of the remaining portion of the Maximum Amount set forth in Section 7.2 or 7.3 , as applicable, (3) a finding or admission of any violation of Law would be made by any Indemnified Party, (4) such settlement, consent or cessation could otherwise reasonably be expected to interfere with or adversely affect the business, operations or assets of the Indemnified Party, and/or (5) if the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party each agrees to cooperate fully in all matters covered by this Section 7.4(c) , including, as required, the furnishing of Books and Records, personnel and witnesses and the execution of documents, in each case as necessary for any defense of such third-party claim and at no cost to the other party ( provided that any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Indemnified Party incurred in connection with the foregoing shall be considered part of Damages hereunder).

(d) Anything to the contrary in this Section 7.4 notwithstanding, if a third-party claim that primarily relates to Taxes or Excluded Taxes includes or could reasonably be expected to include both a claim for Taxes that are Excluded Taxes and a claim for Taxes that are not Excluded Taxes, and such claim for Taxes that are Excluded Taxes is not separable from such a claim for Taxes that are not Excluded Taxes, Seller (if the claim for Taxes that are Excluded Taxes exceeds or reasonably could be expected to exceed in amount the claim for Taxes that are not Excluded Taxes) or otherwise Buyer (Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, the “ Controlling Party ”), shall be entitled to control the defense of such third-party claim (such third-party claim, a “ Tax Claim ”). In such case, the other party (Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, the “ Non-Controlling Party ”) shall be entitled to participate fully (at the Non- Controlling Party’s sole expense) in the conduct of such Tax Claim and the Controlling Party shall not settle such Tax Claim without the consent of such Non-Controlling Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The costs and expenses of conducting the defense of such Tax Claim shall be reasonably apportioned based on the relative amounts of the Tax Claim that are Excluded Taxes and the Tax Claim that are not Excluded Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be entitled to control in all respects, and neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to participate in, the defense of any third-party claim that relates to any income Taxes of Seller or any of its Affiliates. Seller shall be liable for any Damages resulting from any Tax audit or other examination related to the Acquired Assets or the Business for any Tax period or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date whether or not such Tax audit or other examination results in any adjustment of the Seller’s liability for Taxes related to the Acquired Assets or the Business.

Section 7.5 Certain Damages; Certain Offsets; Calculation of Damages .

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no party shall be liable to any Indemnified Party for remote or speculative, punitive or exemplary Damages as a result of any breach of this Agreement or other agreements referred to herein or of any private right of action that any party may have hereunder against another party hereto; provided that the foregoing shall not limit the right of any Indemnified Party to indemnification in accordance with this Agreement with respect to any component of any claim, settlement, award or judgment against such party by any unaffiliated third-party.

(b) For purposes of calculating the monetary amount of Damages for which any claim may be made against any Indemnifying Party, such monetary amount shall be decreased to the extent of any amounts actually recovered by an Indemnified Party under insurance policies and net of any increase in premiums directly attributable to such Damages for the year of the claim and the following year, deductibles or co-pays incurred in connection therewith and all costs of collection.

(c) Each party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate each loss or Liability for which such party is or may become entitled to be indemnified hereunder, including by (i) using commercially reasonable efforts in pursuing and attempting to recover any insurance proceeds available to it as a result thereof and (ii) incurring costs only to the extent reasonably appropriate to remedy any breach or remediate any other situation.

Section 7.6 Exclusive Remedy . After the Closing Date, this Article VII shall provide the exclusive remedy for any breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation, or with respect to matters for which the remedy of specific performance, injunctive relief or other non-monetary equitable remedies are available.

Section 7.7 Treatment of Indemnification Payments . Any amounts payable under this Article VII shall for all income Tax purposes be treated by Buyer and Seller as an adjustment to the Purchase Price to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law. Subject to the limitations described in this Article VII , Buyer shall have a right of set-off against any monies deducted, withheld or retained from or any monies which may be due or become due to Seller under this Agreement to satisfy any claims by Buyer against Seller for indemnification pursuant to this Article VII .

Section 7.8 Distributions from the Escrow Account . Upon the amount of Damages to which any Buyer Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII having been consented to in writing by Seller (whether pursuant to a settlement agreement or otherwise) or determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment or other similar determination of a court of competent jurisdiction, Buyer and Seller shall, not more than two (2) Business Days after such determination, execute and deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse an amount equal to the amount of such Damages from the then-remaining funds in the escrow account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and the separate written payment instructions of the Buyer Indemnitee.

Section 7.9 Payment . If any amount owed under this Article VII is not paid within ten (10) days of a final settlement among the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties or upon a final adjudication determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that an indemnification obligation is owing by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party (either, a “ Final Determination ”), such amount shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, or, if less, the maximum rate permitted by applicable Law, and the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for any and all costs or expenses of any nature or kind whatsoever (including reasonable legal fees) incurred in seeking to collect such amount under this Article VII , and no limitation in this Article VII shall apply to any such interest or reimbursement.

ARTICLE VIII

Accordingly, each party hereby consents to the issuance of temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief by the courts referenced in Section 8.9 to compel performance of such party’s obligations, or to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, and to the granting by the courts referenced in Section 8.9 of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder, without, in any such case, the requirement to post any bond or other undertaking, in addition to any other rights or remedies available hereunder or at law or in equity.

THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “ Escrow Agreement ”), is entered into as of July 10, 2018, by and among Millennium Trust Company, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (“ Buyer ”), The Bancorp Bank, a Delaware chartered commercial bank (“ Seller ”), and Wilmington Trust, N.A., a national banking association, as escrow agent (the “ Escrow Agent ”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreement (as defined below).

RECITALS

B. Section 2.7(b)(ii) of the Agreement provides that, at the Closing, Buyer shall deposit an aggregate amount equal to $5,000,000 (the “ Escrow Amount ”) with the Escrow Agent, and such funds plus all income accrued thereon (the “ Escrow Funds ”) shall be maintained by Escrow Agent to secure Seller’s obligations under the Agreement and shall be administered and payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and this Escrow Agreement.

C. The basis for claims for any indemnification from Seller, and any limitations thereon, shall be governed by the Agreement, which, as among Buyer and Seller, shall be controlling for all purposes of this Escrow Agreement to the extent inconsistent with any provisions hereof.

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the mutual covenants of the parties hereto set forth in this Escrow Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Agent . Seller and Buyer hereby appoint and designate the Escrow Agent as escrow agent for the purposes set forth herein and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to accept, hold and disburse the Escrow Funds in accordance with the terms hereof. All references to the “ Escrow Agent ,” as that term is used herein, shall refer to the Escrow Agent solely in its capacity as such, and not in any other capacity whatsoever, whether as individual, agent, fiduciary, trustee or otherwise. The Escrow Agent shall have no obligation to assure or participate in the enforcement or performance of the Agreement whether or not the Escrow Agent shall have knowledge or notice of the terms thereof, or any acts or omissions relating thereto.

2. Deposit of Escrow Amount . Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, on the date hereof, Buyer hereby deposits with the Escrow Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and the Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges receipt of, the Escrow Amount, to be held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent as set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Section 3 , the Escrow Funds shall be deposited by the Escrow Agent into the account holding the Escrow Funds (the “ Escrow Account ”) maintained by the Escrow Agent and shall be maintained in such Escrow Account until the distribution of the Escrow Funds in accordance with the terms hereof.

3. Investment of Escrow Funds .

(a) The Escrow Agent shall invest and reinvest the Escrow Funds from time to time in the M&T Bank Corporate Deposit Account (the “ M&T Deposit Account ”) or such similar fund or successor account offered by the Escrow Agent. Amounts on deposit in the M&T Deposit Account are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “ FDIC ”), subject to applicable rules and regulations of the FDIC, in the basic FDIC Insurance amount of $250,000, per depositor, per insured bank. This includes principal and accrued interest up to a total of $250,000. Each of Buyer and Seller understands that deposits in the M&T Deposit Account are not secured. The Escrow Agent shall have the right to liquidate any investments of the Escrow Funds held by the Escrow Agent hereunder in order to provide funds necessary to make required payments hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall have no authority to invest the Escrow Funds in any other obligations or investments except as provided in this Section 3 . Neither Buyer, on the one hand, nor Seller, on the other hand, makes any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to any insurance of any amounts on deposit in the Escrow Funds.

(b) The parties hereto recognize and agree that the Escrow Agent will not provide supervision, recommendations or advice relating to either the investment of moneys held in the Escrow Account or the purchase, sale, retention or other disposition of any permitted investment. Any loss or expense incurred as a result of an investment will be borne by the Escrow Account.

(c) The Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to execute purchases and sales of permitted investments through the facilities of its own trading or capital markets operations or those of any affiliated entity. The Escrow Agent shall send statements to each of the parties hereto on a monthly basis reflecting activity in the Escrow Account for the preceding month. Although each of the parties hereto recognizes that it may obtain a broker confirmation or written statement containing comparable information at no additional cost, the parties hereto hereby agree that confirmations of permitted investments are not required to be issued by the Escrow Agent for each month in which a monthly statement is rendered. No statement need be rendered for the Escrow Account if no activity occurred for such month.

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the delivery of the Escrow Funds is subject to the sale and final settlement of permitted investments. Proceeds of a sale of permitted investments will be delivered on the business day on which the appropriate instructions are delivered to the Escrow Agent if received prior to the deadline for same day sale of such permitted investments. If such instructions are received after the applicable deadline, proceeds will be delivered on the next succeeding business day.

4. Tax Matters .

(a) Reporting of Income . Buyer and Seller agree that, for Tax reporting purposes, all Taxable interest on or other income, if any, attributable to the Escrow Funds shall be allocable to Seller in accordance with Proposed Treasury Regulation 1.468B-8. The Escrow Agent will report all income, if any, that is earned on, or derived from, the Escrow Funds as income of Seller whether or not the income was distributed by the Escrow Agent during any particular year as and to the extent required under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”) and shall, as soon as is practicable after December 31 of each calendar year (but in no event later than required by applicable law) prepare and distribute to Seller a Form 1099 or equivalent Tax reporting forms reflecting such income, if applicable.

(b) Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns . Any tax returns required to be prepared and filed with respect to Taxable interest on or other income, if any, attributable to the Escrow Funds will be prepared and filed by Seller with the Internal Revenue Service in all years income is earned, whether or not income is received or distributed in any particular tax year, and the Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the preparation and/or filing of any tax return other than as set forth in Section 4(a) of this Escrow Agreement with respect to any income earned by the Escrow Account. The Escrow Agent shall be deemed the payor of any interest or other income paid upon investment of the Escrow Property for purposes of performing tax reporting. With respect to any other payments made under this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall not be deemed the payor and shall have no responsibility for performing tax reporting. The Escrow Agent’s function of making such payments is solely ministerial and upon express direction of the Buyer and Seller.

(c) Payment of Taxes . Any taxes payable on income earned from the investment of any sums held in the Escrow Account shall be paid by Seller, whether or not the income was distributed by the Escrow Agent during any particular year and to the extent required under the provisions of the Code.

(d) Unrelated Transactions . The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the preparation and/or filing of any tax information return with respect to any transactions, whether or not related to this Escrow Agreement, that occur outside the Escrow Funds.

5. Presentation and Payment of Claims against the Escrow Funds .

(a) At any time prior to the Escrow Funds Distribution Date (as defined below), Buyer (on behalf of any Buyer Indemnitee) may, in accordance with the Agreement, from time to time deliver to the Escrow Agent and Seller a written notice demanding payment in connection with a claim pursuant to the Agreement (each such notice, a “ Demand ”), which Demand shall state a good faith estimate of the amount of the Escrow Funds to be reserved against such claim (each, a “ Claim ”).

(b) Seller may reply to any Demand made under Section 5(a) hereof by written notice given to Buyer with a copy to the Escrow Agent, which written notice shall state whether Seller agrees or disagrees that the Claim asserted by Buyer is a valid Claim under the Agreement and/or agrees or disagrees with respect to the amount of the Claim. If, within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of receipt by Seller of the Demand from Buyer, the Escrow Agent and Buyer have not received a written notice from Seller that asserts that a good faith dispute exists with respect to such Claim (a “ Dispute Notice ”), then Seller shall be deemed to have irrevocably agreed with such Claim, the Escrow Agent shall, on the next business day, disburse to Buyer from the Escrow Funds the amount of the Claim and the Escrow Funds shall be reduced to the extent thereof. If a Dispute Notice is timely delivered, and in the Dispute Notice Seller acknowledges or does not dispute that a portion of the Claim is a valid Claim and acknowledges or does not dispute the amount attributable to the portion of the Claim so acknowledged or not disputed, then Seller shall be deemed to have irrevocably agreed with such portion of the Claim and the Escrow Agent shall disburse to Buyer from the Escrow Funds the amount so acknowledged to or not disputed by Seller.

(c) If a Dispute Notice is timely delivered by Seller in accordance with Section 5(b) hereof, then the amount of the Claim less the amount (if any) acknowledged or not disputed in the Dispute Notice by Seller as due Buyer and disbursed to Buyer, shall be treated as a disputed claim (the “ Disputed Claim ”) and the amount of such Disputed Claim shall be held by the Escrow Agent as an undivided portion of the Escrow Funds (which amount shall continue to be available to satisfy other Claims) until the earlier to occur of (i) the Escrow Agent’s receipt of a joint written instruction executed by Seller and Buyer (a “ Joint Written Instruction ”) with respect to such Disputed Claim or (ii) the Escrow Agent’s receipt of a final, non-appealable judgment, order or decree of a court or other judicial body of competent jurisdiction that decided the Disputed Claim (a “ Final Judgment ”). The Escrow Agent shall receive and may conclusively rely upon a written opinion of counsel to the effect that any such Final Judgment is final, non-appealable and from a court or other judicial body of competent jurisdiction. The aggregate amount of all Claims with respect to which the deadline for delivery of a Dispute Notice has not passed and all Disputed Claims existing from time to time is sometimes referred to herein as the “ Reserve .” Upon Escrow Agent’s receipt of either a Joint Written Instruction or a Final Judgment with respect to any Disputed Claim, (A) if such Joint Written Instruction or Final Judgment sets forth any amounts that are to be paid in favor of Buyer (or other Buyer Indemnitee), then the Escrow Agent shall within three (3) business days of the date of such receipt disburse such amount to Buyer (or such other Buyer Indemnitee) from the Escrow Funds, (B) the amount of the Reserve shall be reduced by the full amount of such Disputed Claim and (C) if the Escrow Funds Distribution Date has occurred, then the Escrow Agent shall within three (3) business days of the date of such receipt disburse to Seller from the Escrow Funds an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Escrow Funds as of such date (after giving effect to such disbursement) over the Reserve as adjusted pursuant to part (B) of this Section 5(c) .

6. Distributions and Payments .

(a) On October 11, 2019 (the “ Escrow Funds Distribution Date ”), the Escrow Agent shall disburse to Seller, the Escrow Funds then held by the Escrow Agent less the aggregate amount of the Reserve as of the Escrow Funds Distribution Date. Any such Reserve shall be distributed in accordance with Section 5(c) hereof.

(b) Other than pursuant to the terms expressly set forth herein, the Escrow Agent shall make such distributions from the Escrow Funds to Seller or Buyer only as shall be specified in a Joint Written Instruction, as applicable, delivered to the Escrow Agent.

(c) Subject to the terms of Sections 5(c) hereof, any distribution required to be made by the Escrow Agent under this Escrow Agreement shall be made by the Escrow Agent promptly upon liquidation of any investment required for such distribution.

7. Rights, Obligations and Indemnification of the Escrow Agent .

(a) In performing any of its duties under this Escrow Agreement, or upon the claimed failure to perform its duties hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone for any damages, losses, or expenses that such party may incur as a result of the Escrow Agent so acting or failing to act; provided that the Escrow Agent shall be liable for damages arising out of its fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct under this Escrow Agreement. Accordingly, the Escrow Agent shall not incur any such liability with respect to: (i) any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith and without fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken in reliance (including reliance not only as to a document’s due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein) upon any document, including any written notice, request or instruction provided for in this Escrow Agreement, that the Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine without inquiry and without requiring substantiating evidence of any kind, to have been signed or presented by a proper Person or Persons and to conform with the provisions of this Escrow Agreement. Concurrently with the execution of this Escrow Agreement, Buyer and Seller shall deliver to the Escrow Agent Exhibit A-1 and Exhibit A-2 which contain an authorized signer designation therein. The Escrow Agent shall have no liability for loss arising from any cause beyond its control, including, but not limited to, the following: (x) the act, failure or neglect of any agent or correspondent selected by Seller or Buyer for the remittance of funds; (y) any delay, error, omission or default of any communication by any Person other than the Escrow Agent; or (z) the acts or edicts of any government or governmental agency or other group or entity exercising governmental powers.

(b) Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, each hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent and its parent, affiliates, directors, officers, agents and employees (collectively, the “ Escrow Agent Indemnitees ”) harmless from and against one-half (½) of any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, fines, penalties and expenses, including out-of-pocket, incidental expenses and reasonable legal fees and expenses (“ Losses ”) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Escrow Agent Indemnitees or any of them for following any instruction or other direction upon which the Escrow Agent is authorized to rely pursuant to the terms of this Escrow Agreement; provided that the Escrow Agent has not acted with gross negligence or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct. In addition to and not in limitation of the immediately preceding sentence, Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller on the other hand, each hereby also covenant and agree to indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent Indemnitees and each of them harmless from and against one-half (½) of all Losses that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Escrow Agent Indemnitees or any of them in connection with or arising out of the Escrow Agent’s performance under this Escrow Agreement (including any action taken by the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 7(i) ); provided , however , that such indemnity shall not apply to any Losses finally determined to have been directly caused by the Escrow Agent’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The provisions of this Section 7(b) shall survive the termination of this Escrow Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent for any reason.

(c) The Escrow Agent shall have only those duties as are specifically provided herein, which shall be deemed purely ministerial in nature, and shall under no circumstance be deemed a fiduciary for any of the parties to this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall neither be responsible for, nor chargeable with, knowledge of the terms and conditions of any other agreement, instrument or document between the other parties hereto, in connection herewith, including, without limitation, the Agreement. This Escrow Agreement sets forth all matters pertinent to the escrow contemplated hereunder, and no additional obligations of the Escrow Agent shall be inferred from the terms of this Escrow Agreement or any other agreement. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ESCROW AGENT BE LIABLE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY (I) DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER, OTHER THAN DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES WHICH HAVE BEEN FINALLY ADJUDICATED TO HAVE DIRECTLY RESULTED FROM THE ESCROW AGENT’S FRAUD, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR (II) ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS), EVEN IF THE ESCROW AGENT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION.

(d) If any part of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order, or if the payment or transfer of any such funds shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such funds or any portion thereof, then in any of such events, the Escrow Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to rely upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree which it is advised in writing by legal counsel is binding upon it. If the Escrow Agent complies with the preceding sentence and any such order, writ, judgment or decree, it shall not be liable to Buyer, Seller or any other Person by reason of such compliance, even though such order, writ, judgment or decree may subsequently be reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

(e) Seller and Buyer agree that until there is a Final Judgment of a Disputed Claim or the delivery of a Joint Written Instruction regarding a Disputed Claim, the Escrow Agent shall retain the Reserve in connection with such Disputed Claim under Section 5 hereof.

(f) Except as specifically provided in Section 3 of this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the investment of any funds held hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable to Seller or Buyer and hereby disclaims any responsibility for any losses or penalties incurred with respect to any such investments.

(g) Subject to the terms hereof, the Escrow Agent may resign without obtaining the order of any court, by giving at least thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice to Seller and Buyer of the Escrow Agent’s intent to resign and, upon the taking of all the actions as described in this Section 7(g) by the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall have no further responsibilities hereunder to Seller or Buyer or to any other Person in connection with this Escrow Agreement. Such resignation shall be effective upon the appointment by Seller and Buyer of a successor escrow agent, which shall be a bank or other financial institution having capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 (a “ Qualified Successor Agent ”). Any such Qualified Successor Agent shall be appointed (which appointment shall be made without delay) by a written instrument, mutually satisfactory to, and executed by, Seller, Buyer and the Qualified Successor Agent, and the Escrow Agent shall execute an assignment by the Escrow Agent of the Escrow Funds to the Qualified Successor Agent. Any Qualified Successor Agent appointed under the provisions of this Escrow Agreement shall have all of the same rights, powers, privileges, immunities and authority with respect to the matters contemplated herein as are granted herein to the original Escrow Agent and thereafter such Qualified Successor Agent shall be the Escrow Agent hereunder. If Seller and Buyer have failed to appoint a Qualified Successor Agent prior to the expiration of thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of the notice of resignation or removal, the Escrow Agent may appoint a Qualified Successor Agent or petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a Qualified Successor Agent or for other appropriate relief, provided that such successor escrow agent must be a Qualified Successor Agent. Any such resulting appointment shall be binding upon all of the parties hereto and thereafter such successor escrow agent shall be the Escrow Agent hereunder.

(h) It is not the intention of the parties hereto to create, nor shall this Escrow Agreement be construed as creating, a partnership or association, or to render the parties hereto liable as partners.

(i) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event (i) of any disagreement or controversy arising under this Escrow Agreement, (ii) conflicting demands or notices are made upon the Escrow Agent arising out of or relating to this Escrow Agreement, or (iii) the Escrow Agent in good faith is in doubt as to what action it should take hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall have the right, at its election, to withhold and stop all further proceedings in, and performance of, this Escrow Agreement and all instructions received hereunder and file a suit in interpleader and obtain an order from a court of competent jurisdiction requiring all parties involved to interplead and litigate in such court their claims and rights among themselves and with the Escrow Agent. Should any suit or legal proceeding be instituted arising out of or related to this Escrow Agreement, whether such suit be initiated by the Escrow Agent or others, the Escrow Agent shall have the right, at its option, to stop all further proceedings under and performance of this Escrow Agreement and of all instructions received hereunder until all differences shall have been rectified and all doubts resolved by agreement or until the rights of all parties shall have been fully adjudicated.

(j) The Escrow Agent shall have the right to perform any of its duties hereunder through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

2.1 Services to be Rendered on Effective Date and Related Matters .

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Seller agrees to provide to Buyer certain services (the " Services ") as set forth in Schedules A and B hereto (including the attachments thereto, the " Schedules ").

(b) In addition to the Services set forth on the Schedules, Seller shall, in each case subject to taking all actions required by Section 5.4 of the Purchase Agreement (relating to consents and approvals):

(i) promptly following the Effective Date, and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereof, distribute to each Account Holder a copy of that certain Trustee Resignation Letter and related materials, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the " Trustee Resignation Communications "), pursuant to which inter alia Seller shall resign as Trustee of each Account effective as of the date provided in the Trustee Resignation Communications, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days after the distribution of such Trustee Resignation Communications (the " Trustee Resignation Date ");

(e) Seller shall not be required to: (i) perform or cause to be performed any Service in a manner that would constitute a violation of Applicable Law or any of the operative Account Agreements; or (ii) hire additional personnel or acquire additional office space, equipment, software, office supplies or other materials in order to provide the Services, other than any equipment, software, or other materials necessary for the normal operation of Buyer's business that were provided by Seller to Buyer prior to the Effective Date, if any.

2.2 General Provisions Regarding Services .

(a) Standard of Service . Seller represents, warrants and agrees that the Services shall be provided in good faith, in accordance with Applicable Law and, except as specifically provided in the Schedules hereto, in a manner generally consistent with the historical provision of the Services and with the same standard of care as historically provided. Seller agrees to assign sufficient resources and qualified personnel as are reasonably required to perform the Services in accordance with the standards set forth in the preceding sentence.

- 2 -

(b) No Obligation to Use Services; Notice of Termination of Service . Buyer shall not be obligated to obtain any of the Services from Seller if Buyer determines to obtain any of the Services from third parties or its own Affiliates, or to perform such Services itself. If Buyer determines not to continue to use any of the Services, in whole or in part, from Seller, then Buyer shall provide at least thirty (30) days' advance written notice of its intent to terminate such Services, specifying the scope and effective date of termination. Upon Seller's receipt of notice from Buyer of Buyer's intention to terminate use of such Services, Buyer has the right to terminate the specified Service following such (30) day notice period. Upon transfer of any of the Services to a third party, such Services shall automatically terminate on the date of such transfer. Upon termination of any Service in accordance with this Section 2.2(b) , Seller shall be under no further obligation to provide such Service.

(c) Additional Services . Seller shall not be obligated to provide or cause to be provided any services pursuant to this Agreement to or for the benefit of Buyer other than the Services provided for in this Agreement, unless and to the extent mutually agreed upon by the Parties in writing (such agreement by Seller not to be unreasonably withheld). If Seller agrees in writing to provide other services, such other services shall thereafter be included within the definition of Services and the Parties shall update the Schedules to reflect these additional services.

(d) Personnel . Seller shall remain solely responsible for the payment of all wages and benefits to its employees who are providing Services pursuant to this Agreement. This obligation shall include, without limitation, compliance with applicable federal, state and local tax withholding requirements, payment of all applicable payroll taxes (including FICA, FUTA and state unemployment taxes) and provision of workers compensation coverage. Seller shall remain solely responsible for actions of its employees, including obligations of security and confidentiality which are applicable to the employees of the Seller.

(e) Relationship of the Parties . The Parties acknowledge and agree that they are independent contractors in the performance of each and every part of their obligations under this Agreement and nothing herein shall be construed to be inconsistent with such status.

(f) Network Connectivity . Each Party to this Agreement shall be responsible for establishing its own separate, secure information technology operating environment and for the payment of any costs associated therewith (other than to the extent provided as a part of the Services).

(g) Authorization . Each Party shall provide for proper corporate authorizations of such Party to be given in order to effect the Services to be provided under this Agreement. Except for costs expressly set forth in the Schedules, each Party, at its own cost, shall be responsible for obtaining any consents, including third party consents, required to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

- 3 -

Article 3 - Records

3.1 Records . Each Party shall maintain its records regarding the Services provided hereunder in a complete and accurate manner consistent with such Party's record retention policies and Applicable Law.

3.2 Access to Information . Each Party shall provide reasonable access, upon reasonable prior notice, during normal business hours, to the other Party's employees and all information and materials reasonably requested to support the provision of the relevant Services hereunder.

Article 4 - Deposit Accounts

4.1 Account Funds . Seller agrees to continue to serve as a depository bank for funds held in the Accounts during the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on such date as Buyer, in its capacity as Trustee or custodian of the Accounts, elects to transfer the Account funds from Seller, in its capacity as a depository bank (the " Conversion Date "). All funds held in the Accounts will continue to be governed by the respective Account Agreements, as the same may be amended from time to time, and related disclosures provided to the Account Holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Article 4 , Buyer shall acquire all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to the Account Agreements as of the Closing. During the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the Conversion Date, Buyer agrees to provide Seller with copies of any documents reasonably requested by Seller that are necessary to establish Buyer's custodial relationship over the Accounts. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer, in its capacity as Trustee or custodian of the Accounts, from directing Seller to transfer any Account funds to a successor depository bank.

4.2 Account Signer . Following the Trustee Resignation Date, each of the persons whose names and signatures appear in Appendix A attached hereto is hereby authorized to open, add, modify or close any accounts at Seller in which funds in the Accounts are held, and to sign, on behalf of Buyer, in its capacity as Trustee or custodian of the Accounts, checks, drafts or other orders for the payment, transfer or withdrawal of any of the funds held in such accounts. The authorization contained in the preceding sentence includes transfers of funds to accounts outside of any accounts Buyer maintains at Seller, in its capacity as a depository bank.

Article 5 - Interest

Seller will credit interest to the Accounts in accordance with Seller's interest rate schedules in effect as of the Effective Date, as may be subsequently amended in writing by Seller in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

Article 6 - Fees

As full compensation for costs fairly incurred in providing the Services (including, without limitation, out-of-pocket costs), Seller shall retain fifty percent (50%) of the account fees (the " Account Fees ") earned and collected in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice from each Account during the period commencing on the Effective Date and terminating on the Conversion Date and shall pay the remaining fifty percent (50%) of such Account Fees to Buyer. Buyer shall not be responsible for any additional costs incurred by Seller in providing the Services. Commencing on the Effective Date and terminating on the Trustee Resignation Date, Seller will pay to Buyer an amount equal to one and four-tenths percent (1.4%) per annum of the balance of the Accounts, compounded daily for the period. Commencing on the day after the Trustee Resignation Date and terminating on the Conversion Date, Seller will pay to Buyer an amount equal to one and five-tenths percent (1.5%) per annum of the balance of the Accounts, compounded daily for the period. Promptly following the Conversion Date, but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days, Seller shall pay all amounts due under this Article 6 by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Buyer.

- 4 -

Article 7 - Taxes

In the event that the relationship created among the Parties under this Agreement, or any performance of any Services, or any other aspect of this relationship, gives rise to any tax or assessment (other than a tax based on or measured by income, ownership or possession), payable to any federal, state, or local government or political division thereof, such obligation, regardless of whether or not it is assessed directly to any Party, shall be the responsibility of Buyer.

Article 8 - Term

This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the earlier of (i) the six (6) month anniversary of the Effective Date or (ii) the mutual agreement of the Parties; provided , however , that either Party may extend the term of this Agreement under subsection (i) above for additional six (6) month terms by providing written notice to the other Party at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current term. Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in good faith to enable Buyer to exit from the Services at the earliest possible date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Article 1 , Article 8 through Article 12 , Schedule B and all Liabilities for due and unpaid amounts under Article 6 of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Article 9 - Unclaimed Property

9.1 Seller Unclaimed Property Obligations .

(a) Prior to the Trustee Resignation Date, Seller, in its capacity as the Trustee or custodian of the Accounts, will comply with all obligations under applicable state unclaimed property Laws, including the timely remittance of any Account funds that may be considered "unclaimed," that exist or may arise prior to the Trustee Resignation Date related to the Accounts, whether pursuant to the unclaimed property audits described in Section 3.7(a) of the Disclosure Schedules or otherwise.

(b) Prior to the Trustee Resignation Date, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to identify all Account funds that are subject to remittance pursuant to the TSG Audit described in Section 3.7(a) of the Disclosure Schedules and timely remit such funds and close the applicable Accounts. Seller shall keep Buyer apprised of all Accounts the funds of which have been identified for remittance pursuant to this Section 9.1(b) and the status of such remittance prior to the Trustee Resignation Date.

- 5 -

9.2 Buyer Unclaimed Property Obligations . Subject to the provisions of Article 10 , following the Trustee Resignation Date, Buyer, in its capacity as the Trustee or custodian of the Accounts, will be responsible for all obligations under applicable state unclaimed property Laws, including the timely remittance of any Account funds that may be considered "unclaimed," that exist or may arise as of or following the Trustee Resignation Date related to the Accounts (other than those Accounts closed, requested to be closed by their Account Holders or in the process of being remitted by Seller pursuant to Section 9.1(b) ) and shall indemnify Seller for any demands made by or on behalf of any state or regulatory for remittance of any unclaimed Account funds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Article 10 , Buyer shall be responsible for any penalties, fees or similar charges assessed as a result of Buyer's failure to timely remit any such unclaimed Account funds in accordance with the applicable unclaimed property Laws.

Article 10 - Indemnification

Article VII of the Purchase Agreement shall apply to this Agreement mutatis mutandis as if set forth herein; provided , however , that nothing in Article 9 or this Article 10 shall be deemed to limit any of the obligations of Seller to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer Indemnitees from and against and pay or reimburse the Buyer Indemnitees for, any and all Damages incurred, suffered or sustained by the Buyer Indemnitees arising out of or relating to the matters set forth in Sections 7.2(i) through Section 7.2(v) of the Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, Damages arising from Seller's failure to comply with any applicable unclaimed property Laws that exist or arise prior to the Trustee Resignation Date related to the Accounts (and, for the sake of clarity, Buyer shall have no obligation to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Seller Indemnitee with respect thereto).

Article 11 - Confidentiality

During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, the Parties shall, and shall instruct their respective representatives to, maintain in confidence and not disclose the other Party's financial, technical, sales, marketing, development, personnel, and other information, records, or data, including, without limitation, customer lists, supplier lists, trade secrets, designs, product formulations, product specifications or any other proprietary or confidential information, however recorded or preserved, whether written or oral (any such information, " Confidential Information "). Each Party shall use the same degree of care, but no less than reasonable care, to protect the other Party's Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature. Unless otherwise authorized in any other agreement between the parties, any Party receiving any Confidential Information of the other Party (the " Receiving Party ") may use such Confidential Information only for the purposes of fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement (the " Permitted Purpose "). Any Receiving Party may disclose such Confidential Information only to its representatives who have a need to know such information for the Permitted Purpose and who have been advised of the terms of this Article 11 and the Receiving Party shall be liable for any breach of these confidentiality provisions by such Persons; provided , however , that any Receiving Party may disclose such Confidential Information to the extent such Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by Applicable Law, in which case the Receiving Party shall promptly notify, to the extent possible, the disclosing party (the " Disclosing Party "), and take reasonable steps in protecting the Disclosing Party's rights prior to disclosure, and in which case the Receiving Party shall only disclose such Confidential Information that it is advised by its counsel that it is legally bound to disclose under Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, " Confidential Information " shall not include any information that the Receiving Party can demonstrate: (i) was publicly known at the time of disclosure to it, or has become publicly known through no act of the Receiving Party or its Representatives in breach of this Article 11 ; (ii) was rightfully received from a third party without a duty of confidentiality; or (iii) was developed by it independently without any reliance on the Confidential Information. Upon demand by the Disclosing Party at any time, or upon expiration or termination of this Agreement with respect to any Service, the Receiving Party agrees to promptly return or destroy, at the Disclosing Party's option, all Confidential Information, subject to any obligation under applicable Law to retain such Confidential Information; provided that any Confidential Information so retained shall remain subject to the confidentiality obligations hereunder. If such Confidential Information is destroyed, an authorized officer of the Receiving Party shall certify to such destruction in writing.

This Agreement and the performance of this Agreement shall not affect the ownership of rights in and to intellectual property, and no Party shall gain, by virtue of this Agreement, any ownership rights in and to such assets owned by the other Party or any ownership, license, or other rights in and to such assets of the other Party. At all times prior to the Conversion Date, Seller and its Affiliates shall employ commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all Privacy and Information Security Requirements to protect Personal Data within its custody or control and require the same of any Vendors or Affiliates that Process Personal Data on its behalf.

Article 13 - Miscellaneous

13.1 Severability . If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

13.2 Entire Agreement . This Agreement, including the Schedules hereto, and the provisions of the Purchase Agreement that relate to the Services, constitute the sole and entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of conflict between this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement relative to the Services, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

13.3 Governing Law; Venue . This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law principles. The Parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. To the fullest extent that they may effectively do so under Applicable Law, the Parties irrevocably waive and agree not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that they are not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

In the event of an assignment, the assignor remains liable for its obligations under this Agreement. The provision of any Services by a Seller by causing its Affiliate or a Vendor to provide such Services in accordance with Section 2.1(d) shall not be deemed to be an assignment of this Agreement requiring the consent of Buyer.

The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the failure of any party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder, including, without limitation, any failure by Seller to take all actions as are necessary to designate Buyer as Trustee or custodian for all Accounts in accordance with Section 2(b)(ii) , will cause irreparable injury to the other party, for which damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each Party hereby consents to the issuance of temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief by the courts referenced in Section 13.3 to compel performance of such Party's obligations, or to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, and to the granting by the courts referenced in Section 13.3 of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder, without, in any such case, the requirement to post any bond or other undertaking, in addition to any other rights or remedies available hereunder or at law or in equity.
