WHEREAS, Purchaser and Seller desire to have Escrow Agent hold the PAYMENT of Buyer as required under the contract for Purchase and Sale, in escrow pursuant to the terms hereof.


NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency whereof is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby covenant and agree as follows:

This agreement provides for two ways of interaction between the parties:


Method first:


The Buyer deposits the Payment directly to the Seller's account by issuing a letter of credit to the Seller's account in EUROPEAN STANDARD BANK, keeping the password for opening the letter of credit. If the seller fulfills the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, then the Buyer sends the Seller a password to open a letter of credit. The seller opens a letter of credit using a password and begins to use the received payment to purchase the assets he needs in the same way in the role of a Buyer. If the Seller does not fulfill the terms of the sale and purchase agreement, the Escrow Agent returns the payment to the Buyer. In the event of disputes between the Buyer and the Seller, the Escrow Agent acts as an arbiter when resolving them.


Method second:


Purchaser has delivered and deposited with Escrow Agent the amount of $_________________ dollars, representing the Earnest Money (total Payment) as required by the Contract of Purchase and Sale. The Escrow Agent agrees to immediately deposit said funds in ___________________________________________ into its general non-interest bearing account and to hold and disburse said funds, as hereinafter provided.

Upon written notification from Purchaser and Seller that the contemplated sale is to be consummated, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Earnest Money (total Payment) to Seller to be applied to the purchase price shall be paid to Seller, unless otherwise instructed by the parties hereto.

Upon written notification from both Purchaser and Seller that the contemplated sale shall not take place, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Earnest Money (total Payment) to Purchaser or as otherwise instructed by the parties hereto.
