The Escrow Agreement reserves the right to dispose of the escrow by interpleader or other suitable action in the event of controversy. It is expressly understood and agreed that should the Bank be required to seek legal advice by virtue of any claim of either of the parties, or should the bank be made defendant in any suit by any of the contracting parties to this agreement, or by any representative, assignee or successor to any party or by any person for any matter arising out of the Bank’s handling said escrow papers, or should the Bank determine it to be necessary or advisable to commence litigation by interpleader or otherwise, by reason of a dispute between the parties or their assigns, the cost of said action, including attorney’s fees paid or incurred, shall be borne by the contracting parties, and may be deducted from amounts collected on this escrow if not otherwise paid by the contracting parties.
