contingencies, which is communicated in writing to Seller within the applicable
time frame. If Buyer fails to terminate this Contract prior to the end of the

agents, employees or contractors onto the Property, Buyer shall give Seller

contained in Paragraph 6.01: (i) is made as of the date of this Agreement; (ii)

elected to waive such matter and to proceed to Closing. If any of said
representations and warranties are not correct in all material respects at the
time the same is made or as of Closing, and Seller had knowledge of such
inaccuracy when the representation and warranty was made, or, by its default
hereunder caused the representation or warranty to be inaccurate when remade at

obligations under Paragraph 4.03, receive a return of the Deposit and recover

rights under clause (x) and proceed to Closing, by notice to Seller given within
