The Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall be applied against the Purchase Price at the closing referenced below, or shall be paid to the Seller as liquidated damages in the event of a default by the Purchaser in accordance with this Section 9.2(d)(i); provided, however, that the Seller shall not be entitled to receive the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit of the defaulted Purchaser, if any, as liquidated damages if it elects to become the Substituted Purchaser in accordance with this Section 9.2(d). In the event the Purchaser fails to deposit timely such Xxxxxxx Money Deposit as provided above or fails or refuses to close on the purchase and sale of its Buy/Sell Interest on the Closing Date (such Purchaser being then referred to as the “Defaulting Purchaser”), then within fifteen (15) days thereafter, unless the Defaulting Purchaser has earlier cured such default by depositing the required Xxxxxxx Money Deposit as provided above or has proven to the reasonable satisfaction of the Seller that the Defaulting Purchaser is ready, willing and able to close such purchase and sale, the Seller shall have the option of substituting itself as the Purchaser of the Buy/Sell Interest of the Defaulting Purchaser (such Seller being then referred to as the “Substituted Purchaser”) under this Section 9.2(d) at a purchase price (the Sale Option “Substituted Purchase Price”) equal to ninety percent (90%) of the Purchase Price multiplied by the ratio of the Defaulting Purchaser’s Percentage Interest to the Substituted Purchaser’s Percentage Interest.
