Default Termination a. In the event that the Property has been sold contrary to or any person bids in contravention of the provisions in Clause 4 above, then such sale shall be cancelled and become null and void and of no further effect wherein all monies paid by the Purchaser hitherto including the Deposit shall be forfeited absolutely and immediately.
b. If the Purchaser defaults in complying with any of these Conditions of Sale or in payment of any sums payable, then the Assignee may (without prejudice to its rights for specific performance) treat such default as a repudiation of the contract and terminate the sale by giving the Purchaser written notice thereof, in which event all monies paid by the Purchaser hitherto including the Deposit shall be forfeited absolutely and immediately.
c. In the event of the sale being set aside for any reason whatsoever by the Assignee or by an Order of Court (other than that due to any act of default and/or omission by the Purchaser), then such sale shall be cancelled and become null and void and of no further effect wherein only monies paid by the Purchaser towards the account of the purchase price shall be refunded to the Purchaser free of interest less costs and fees incurred by the Assignee in connection with or relating to the sale.

A certificate by an officer of the Assignee verifying such expenses and/or fees shall be final and conclusive and shall be binding on the Purchaser. Upon payment by the Assignee herein, the Purchaser shall have no other or further claims, or demands whatsoever in nature and howsoever caused against the Assignee, the Assignee’s Solicitors and the Auctioneer or their respective servants or agents.
d.

In the event the sale is terminated for any reason whatsoever, the Assignee shall not be liable to the Purchaser for the cost of any improvements to the Property carried out by the Purchaser. The costs to reinstate the Property (if any damage is caused by the Purchaser in possession thereof) or expenses to recover possession of the Property from the Purchaser shall be deducted and set-off against the monies paid herein towards account of the purchase price and thereafter in the event there is any residue, the said residue shall be refunded to the Purchaser free of interest or if the monies paid are not sufficient to cover all such costs and expenses, the Purchaser shall then reimburse and pay the balance amount outstanding to the Assignee failing which the Assignee shall be entitled to take all further necessary steps or actions to recover the same. For this purpose a certificate duly signed by an officer of the Assignee verifying the amount of such costs and expenses shall be accepted by the Purchaser as correct and conclusive. It shall be deemed final and binding upon the Purchaser.
e. Subject as aforesaid, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to nor have any or further reimbursements, claims, demands or legal recourses of action or remedies whatsoever in nature and howsoever caused against the Assignee, the Assignee’s Solicitors, the Auctioneer or their respective servants or agents or any other party on account thereof.
f. The Purchaser or the Purchaser’s Solicitors shall return or cause to be returned the Assignment or the Memorandum of Transfer and other documents to the Assignee with the Assignee’s interest intact PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT if the Assignment or the Memorandum of Transfer has been adjudicated and stamped, the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s Solicitors shall surrender the same to the relevant authorities to obtain a refund of the stamp duty paid and for cancellation of the same.

The Assignee shall be at liberty to put up the Property for sale again at a time, place and reserve price to be fixed by the Assignee at its sole discretion or to dispose of and/or otherwise deal with the Property in whatsoever manner the Assignee shall think fit without further reference to the Purchaser. The costs and expenses of in connection with and resulting from such resale together with any deficiency in the price resulting from the resale or the purchase price if there is no resale (as the case may be) shall be recoverable from the defaulting Purchaser. For this purpose a certificate duly signed by an officer of the Assignee verifying the amount of such costs and expenses shall be accepted by the Purchaser as correct and conclusive. It shall be deemed final and binding upon the Purchaser.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the Debt, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and shall be secured by the Mortgage. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default and Lender retains its rights under the Note and this Agreement to accelerate and to continue to demand payment of the Debt upon the happening and continuance of any Event of Default.
