(a) In the event that all or any substantial portion of the real property or personal property shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing, either party may terminate this Contract by written notice thereof to the other party within ten (10) days after such party is notified of the casualty. Upon termination of this Contract as provided in this Section 9.2(a), all rights, duties and obligations hereunder shall cease and be of no further force or effect (except with respect to the provisions hereof which expressly survive the termination of this Contract). If neither party terminates this Contract as aforesaid, then both parties shall proceed to close the transaction contemplated herein pursuant to the terms hereof, in which event the LLC shall have the rights set forth in the Lease (including, without limitation, the rights, if any exist, of the landlord to receive insurance proceeds with respect to such casualty) and there shall be no reduction in the Net Purchase Price. In the event less than a substantial portion of any Parcel shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing, then the parties shall proceed in accordance with the third sentence in this Section 9.2(a).

(b) For the purposes of Section 9.2(a), a “substantial portion” of the real property or personal property shall be deemed to be any portion of such real property or personal property with either a fair market value or replacement cost equal to or greater than twenty-five percent (25%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan at the time of the casualty, or which gives rise to the right of the Tenant under the Lease to terminate such Lease or the right of Lender to demand payment in full of the related Loan.
