items required to be made by any party under this Agreement or under any

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Buyer shall have actual knowledge as of
the Closing Date that any of the representations or warranties of Seller
contained herein are false or inaccurate or that Seller is in breach or
default of any of its obligations under this Agreement, and Buyer
nonetheless closes the transactions hereunder and acquires the Partnership
Interests, then Seller shall have no liability or obligation respecting
such false or inaccurate representations or warranties or other breach or
default (and any cause of action resulting therefrom shall terminate upon
such closing hereunder)
12. REMEDIES. If the transactions provided for in this Agreement shall
not be closed by reason of a party's default hereunder, and the other party
has complied with all of its obligations hereunder in all material respects

such damages recoverable in such event hereunder not to exceed $50,000 in
the aggregate).

the parties respecting the matters set forth and supersedes all prior
agreements between the parties hereto respecting such matters. Captions

construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois. The
termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof shall in no
event release any party from liability for any breach hereof by such party.
