casualty and the following provisions shall apply with respect to such
casualty:
(i) if such damage or destruction results in a casualty loss
in an amount exceeding One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) (the
"Damage Limit"), Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
by written notice to Seller in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be
promptly refunded to Purchaser and thereafter neither party hereto shall
have any further rights, obligations or liabilities. In the event that
this Agreement is not terminated pursuant to this Subparagraph (i),
Purchaser shall be obligated to close the purchase and sale contemplated by
this Agreement as scheduled without adjustment of the Purchase Price and
Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing all insurance proceeds payable
under Seller's insurance policies on account of such damage or destruction
(and co-operate with Purchaser in collecting under such insurance
policies) or pay to Purchaser all such insurance proceeds previously paid
to Seller (unless delivered to the Existing Lender) and Seller shall not
be obligated to repair or restore the Property
(ii) if such damage or destruction results in a casualty loss
in an amount not exceeding the Damage Limit, neither Purchaser nor Seller
shall have such right to terminate this Agreement, and Purchaser and Seller
shall be obligated to close the purchase and sale contemplated by this
Agreement as scheduled without adjustment of the Purchase Price and Seller
shall assign, subject to the rights of the Existing Lender, to Purchaser at
Closing all insurance proceeds payable under Seller's insurance policies on
account of such damage or destruction or pay to Purchaser all such
insurance proceeds previously paid.
B. CONDEMNATION. In the event that prior to the Closing
Date there shall be instituted against the Property any Condemnation
Proceeding, Seller shall immediately give written notice (hereinafter
referred to as "Seller's Condemnation Notice") of such Condemnation
Proceeding to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate
this Agreement by written notice to Seller , in which event the Xxxxxxx
Money shall be refunded to Purchaser and thereafter neither party hereto
shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder. In
the event that Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement
pursuant to this paragraph, Purchaser shall be obligated to close the
purchase and sale contemplated hereby as scheduled less the portion of the
Property so taken or subject to said Condemnation Proceeding without
adjustment of the Purchase Price and Seller shall assign or pay to
Purchaser, except to the extent Seller has assigned or delivered same to
the Existing Lender, at Closing all of Seller's right, title and interest
in any award payable on account of such Condemnation Proceeding or pay to
Purchaser all such awards previously paid, except to the extent Seller has
delivered same to the Existing Lender, and Seller shall have no obligation
to repair or restore the Property not so taken by said Condemnation
Proceeding.
16. NO BROKER. Seller and Purchaser each represent and warrant to
the other that neither has employed, retained or consulted any broker,
agent, or finder in carrying on a negotiation in connection with this
Agreement or the purchase and sale referred to herein, and Seller and
Purchaser each hereby agree to pay any and all claims, demands, causes of
action, debts, liabilities, judgments and damages (including costs and
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with this provision)
which may be asserted or recovered against the second party on account of
any brokerage fee, commission or other compensation arising by reason of
the first party's breach of this representation and warranty. This
Paragraph shall survive the closing or any termination of this Agreement.
17. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].
18. DEFAULT.
A. In the event that Purchaser defaults in the observance or
performance of its covenants and obligations hereunder, Seller shall be
entitled to (i) xxx Purchaser for specific performance of this Agreement,
or (ii) terminate this Agreement (except to the extent that any right,
obligation or liability set forth herein expressly survives termination of
this Agreement, which Seller shall be entitled to enforce notwithstanding a
termination of this Agreement and a return of the Xxxxxxx Money) by written
notice to Purchaser of such termination and receive payment of the Xxxxxxx
Money as full liquidated damages for such default of Purchaser, the parties
hereto acknowledging the difficulty of ascertaining the actual damages in
the event of such a default, that it is impossible more precisely to
estimate the damages to be suffered by Seller upon Purchaser's default,
that such payment of the Xxxxxxx Money is intended not as a penalty, but as
full liquidated damages and that such amount constitutes a reasonable good
faith estimate of the potential damages arising therefrom, it being
otherwise difficult or impossible to estimate Seller's actual damages which
would be suffered by Seller in the event of default by Purchaser. Except
with respect to any right, obligation or liability which survives
termination of this Agreement (as to which Seller shall be entitled to
exercise any and all rights and remedies at law or in equity), the Seller's
right to xxx for specific performance or to terminate this Agreement and to
receive payment of the Xxxxxxx Money as full liquidated damages are
Seller's sole and exclusive remedies in the event of default hereunder by
Purchaser, and Seller hereby waives, relinquishes and releases any and all
other rights and remedies, including, but not limited to: (1) any right to
xxx Purchaser for damages or to prove that Seller's actual damages exceed
the Xxxxxxx Money which is hereby provided Seller as full liquidated
damages or (2) any other right or remedy which Seller may otherwise have
against Purchaser, either at law, in equity or otherwise; provided,
however, this waiver is not intended to in any way limit Seller's recourse
against Purchaser with respect to the requirements of Purchaser under the
documents delivered at Closing.
B. In the event that Seller defaults in the observance or
performance of its covenants and obligations hereunder, Purchaser shall be
entitled to terminate this Agreement by the delivery to Seller of notice of
such termination and to receive immediate payment of the Xxxxxxx Money,
and, if Purchaser has theretofore complied with all of Purchaser's
obligations under this Agreement, Purchaser shall also be entitled, as its
sole and exclusive additional remedy for Seller's failure to make the
conveyances set forth in Paragraph 8 hereof, to xxx Seller for specific
performance of such obligation. Purchaser's rights to so terminate this
Agreement, receive payment of the Xxxxxxx Money as aforesaid and xxx for
specific performance as aforesaid are Purchaser's sole and exclusive
remedies in the event of default hereunder by Seller, and Purchaser hereby
waives, relinquishes and releases any and all other rights and remedies,
including, but not limited to: (1) any right to xxx Seller for damages, and
(2) any other right or remedy which Purchaser may otherwise have against
Seller either at law, in equity or otherwise. Purchaser agrees that its
rights hereunder against Seller shall be limited to Seller's interest in
the Property and Seller shall have no personal liability to Purchaser
hereunder beyond Seller's interest in the Property.
19. ASSIGNABILITY OF AGREEMENT. Without the prior written consent
of Seller, Purchaser shall not, voluntarily or by operation of law, sell,
assign, transfer, convey, hypothecate or otherwise assign to any transferee
or transferees all or any part of its rights under this Agreement and any
such attempted assignment shall be void ab initio.

provisions of this Agreement shall be declared invalid by laws applicable
thereto, then the performance of said offending provision shall be excused
by the parties hereto; provided, however, that, if the performance of such

transaction, then the party hereto for whose benefit such excused provision
was inserted in this Agreement shall have the right, exercisable by written

delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy accruing to Seller
or Purchaser upon any breach under this Agreement shall impair such right
or remedy or be construed as a waiver of any such breach theretofore or

afforded to Seller or Purchaser either hereunder or by law shall be
