I'll focus on finding exhibits matching your description (text messages and "escrow account details") and present the relevant parts verbatim.

This is not the complete Escrow Agreement itself, but it's directly related to the escrow setup. Document 99-9 provides details of the initial escrow amount and its purpose.
- Text Messages: Documents 99-5, 99-18, and 122-5 through 122-9 contain various text message exchanges, mostly between Jared Isaacman and other (often redacted) parties. The content of these messages ranges from scheduling and confirmations to discussions about business matters and employment transitions. The provided samples indicate a back and forth that often goes between formal emails and text messages.
