(b) In the event that after taking possession of the Dwelling, the Purchaser shall complete and/or install any improvements, additions or alterations thereto, including, but not limited to, finishing basement, wallpapering, cabinetry and/or mouldings and/or finishings, porch tiles or finishes, pools or hot tubs the Purchaser shall be required to remove such improvements, additions or alterations at his own expense, in the event that the Vendor shall be required to carry out any repairs or replacements to the Dwelling in the area of such improvements, additions or alterations.
(c) The Purchaser acknowledges that grading and sodding shall be done between June and October (weather permitting and subject to availability of supplies) of any year as per the Vendor's scheduling program. The Purchaser agrees that he shall be solely responsible for watering and general maintenance of sod from the Closing or from the date that sod is laid, whichever shall be the later, and the Vendor shall have no obligation in that regard. In the event the Vendor is, for any reason, required to replace laid sod, the Vendor shall not be obligated to do so until payment has been made therefor by the Purchaser and if so replaced, the Purchaser agrees to reimburse the Vendor for the costs and expenses of same as determined by the Vendor, which costs and expenses may be deducted from the Security Deposit at the Vendor's sole, absolute and unfettered discretion. Further, the Purchaser acknowledges that the order of closing of the Property and/or the order of completion or closing of other lots sold by the Vendor is not indicative of the order of sodding of the Property and said other lots.
(d) The Purchaser covenants to occupy the Dwelling forthwith after Closing. The Purchaser agrees not to finish the whole or any part of the basement of the Dwelling for a period of 24 months after the Closing or such longer period which is equivalent to the warranty period under the Warranty Act for basement repairs. The Purchaser hereby releases the Vendor from any liability whatsoever in respect of water damage to basement improvements and chattels stored in basement resulting from water seepage or leakage, including any consequential damages arising therefrom.
(e) The Purchaser acknowledges that the Vendor has a master key for the subdivision and in the event that the Purchaser wishes to change any locks, he may do so, at his own expense, any time after Closing.

The Vendor is not responsible for any damage to the Dwelling which the Vendor considers of a minor nature by reason of such settlement.
(g) No request by the Purchaser for homeowner service will be processed by the Vendor unless such request is in writing other than emergency service, such as no heat, water or electricity.

8.3 Escrow Holder is hereby authorized and instructed to conduct the Escrow in accordance with this Agreement, applicable law and custom and practice of the community in which Escrow Holder is located, including any reporting requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. In the event of a conflict between the law of the state where the Property is located and the law of the state where the Escrow Holder is located, the law of the state where the Property is located shall prevail.
8.4 Subject to satisfaction of the contingencies herein described, Xxxxxx Holder shall close this escrow (the "Closing") by recording a general warranty deed (a grant deed in California) and the other documents required to be recorded, and by disbursing the funds and documents in accordance with this Agreement.

In the event of such termination, Buyer shall be promptly refunded all funds deposited by Buyer with Escrow Holder, less only Title Company and Escrow Holder cancellation fees and costs, all of which shall be Buyer's obligation.
8.8 The Closing shall occur on the Expected Closing Date, or as soon thereafter as the Escrow is in condition for Closing; provided, however, that if the Closing does not occur by the Expected Closing Date and said Date is not extended by mutual instructions of the Parties, a Party not then in default under this Agreement may notify the other Party, Escrow Holder, and Brokers, in writing that, unless the closing occurs within 5 business days following said notice, the Escrow shall be deemed terminated without further notice or instructions.
8.9 Except as otherwise provided herein, the termination of Escrow shall not relieve or release either Party from any obligation to pay Escrow Holder's fees and costs or constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any breach or default that has occurred in the performance of the obligations, agreements, covenants or warranties contained therein.
8.10 If this Escrow is terminated for any reason other than Seller's breach or default, then at Seller's request, and as a condition to the return of Buyer's deposit, Buyer shall within 5 days after written request deliver to Seller, at no charge, copies of all surveys, engineering studies, soil reports, maps, master plans, feasibility studies and other similar items prepared by or for Buyer that pertain to the Property.
