Purchaser acknowledges that failure to timely notify Seller of such an election in accordance with the foregoing shall be deemed an acceptance by Purchaser of such Sign Location Lease or Bus Transit Contract, as applicable and related Assets and a relinquishment of any right to payment from Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts that may become due to Purchaser (or the Company) under this paragraph shall not be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.2(c).
