If Buyer terminates this Agreement in accordance with this Section 1.8 or as otherwise provided herein7(d), then this Agreement will have no further force or effect, the parties will have no further obligations to each other (except for any indemnities or other provisions that expressly survive termination of this Agreement) and Escrow Holder shall remain refund the Deposit to Buyer. The reductions to the Purchase Price contemplated in full force this Section 7(d) are in addition to those contemplated in Section 5(b) and effect5(c) of this Agreement.
(e) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth herein, in addition to the rights set forth in Sections 5(b), 5(c) and 7(d), at any time during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer may in its sole discretion, elect to designate specified properties from the properties identified on Exhibit A as Excluded Properties as defined in Section 5(c), with the understanding that Seller’s written consent is required if Buyer elects to buy fewer than eighty-five percent (85%) of the properties comprising the Property. In the event of such an election, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a notice stating which properties it has designated as Excluded Properties no later than two (2) days prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period (the “Notice to Seller”). Upon delivery of the Notice to Seller, the designated properties described in the Notice to Seller shall be Excluded Properties, and the terms of Section 5(c) shall apply with respect thereto.
