In all other events Seller’s remedies shall be limited to those described in this Section 10.1 and Sections 4.10, 8.8, 10.3 and 10.4 hereof. If Closing is consummated,
9
Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event Purchaser fails to perform any obligation of Purchaser under this Agreement. IN NO EVENT SHALL PURCHASER’S DIRECT OR INDIRECT PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OWNERS OR AFFILIATES, ANY OFFICER, MANAGER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE FOREGOING, OR ANY AFFILIATE OR CONTROLLING PERSON THEREOF HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS, THE REAL PROPERTY OR THE IMPROVEMENTS, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, COMMON LAW, STATUTE, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.”
14. Purchaser Remedies. Section 10.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement in its entirety if Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller written notice of its intent to proceed otherwise on or before ten (10) Business Days following the scheduled Closing Date or, having given notice that it intends to seek specific performance, fails to file a lawsuit
10
asserting such claim or cause of action in New York County, New York within two months following the scheduled Closing Date.
