Upon receipt of a timely Notice, Seller shall within three (3) business days either (i) covenant to remove such New Exception by Closing; or (ii) elect not to do so; provided that Seller’s failure to timely object shall be deemed Seller’s election under subsection (ii).

Except for the Reserved Matters: (1) Seller has not made (and specifically negates and disclaims) any representations or warranties, promises, covenants, agreements or guarantees of any kind, character or nature whatsoever, whether express, implied or otherwise, oral, written, of, as to, concerning or relating to any Property Conditions; (2) by the Contingency Time, Buyer will have examined, reviewed and inspected all Property Conditions and other matters which, in Buyer’s judgment, bear upon the Property and its value and suitability for Buyer’s purposes; (3) upon Closing, Buyer will acquire the Property solely on the basis of its own physical and financial examinations, review and inspections and the title insurance protection afforded by the owner’s title policy; and (4) upon Closing, Buyer shall assume the risk that Property Conditions, may not have been revealed by Buyer’s investigations.

11. Defaults.
11.1 Buyer Default. IF ESCROW FAILS TO CLOSE DUE TO BUYER’S DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, SELLER WILL BE DAMAGED AND WILL BE ENTITLED TO COMPENSATION FOR THOSE DAMAGES. SUCH DAMAGES WILL, HOWEVER, BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND IMPRACTICAL TO ASCERTAIN FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: (1) THE DAMAGES SELLER WOULD BE ENTITLED TO IN A COURT OF LAW WILL BE BASED IN PART ON THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE ACTUAL VALUE OF THE PROPERTY AT THE TIME SET FOR THE CLOSING AND A PURCHASE PRICE FOR THE PROPERTY AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT; (2) PROOF OF THE AMOUNT OF SUCH DAMAGES WILL BE BASED ON OPINIONS OF VALUE OF THE PROPERTY, WHICH CAN VARY IN SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS; AND (3) IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PREDICT AS OF THE DATE ON WHICH THIS AGREEMENT IS MADE THE EXTENT TO WHICH THE VALUE OF THE PROPERTY WILL INCREASE AS OF THE DATE SET FOR THE CLOSING. BUYER DESIRES TO LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES FOR WHICH BUYER MIGHT BE LIABLE SHOULD BUYER BREACH THIS AGREEMENT AS AFORESAID. BUYER AND SELLER WISH TO AVOID THE COST AND LENGTHY DELAYS WHICH WOULD RESULT IF SELLER FILED A LAWSUIT TO COLLECT ITS DAMAGES FOR A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT. THEREFORE, IF ESCROW FAILS TO CLOSE DUE TO A BUYER DEFAULT AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, THE SUM THEN REPRESENTED BY THE DEPOSIT (WHETHER THEN HELD BY ESCROW HOLDER, SELLER OR BOTH) SHALL BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER’S DAMAGES UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE LAW, AND SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IN THE EVENT OF THE FAILURE TO CLOSE ESCROW RESULTING FROM A BUYERS DEFAULT SHALL BE LIMITED TO SUCH AMOUNTS AND SELLER SHALL HAVE NO RIGHT TO AN ACTION FOR EITHER ADDITIONAL DAMAGES OR FOR SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF ANY PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PAYMENT OF SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, SELLER WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE WAIVED ALL OTHER CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES OR RELIEF AT LAW OR IN EQUITY INCLUDING ANY RIGHTS SELLER MAY HAVE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW. BY INITIALING THIS PROVISION IN THE SPACES BELOW, SELLER AND BUYER EACH SPECIFICALLY AFFIRM THEIR RESPECTIVE AGREEMENTS CONTAINED HEREIN AND AGREE THAT SUCH SUM IS A REASONABLE SUM CONSIDERING THE CIRCUMSTANCES AS THEY EXIST ON THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE PAYMENT OF LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT RELEASE BUYER OF ITS INDEMNITY OBLIGATION SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 5.3 AND 10, BUYER’S OBLIGATION TO PAY ITS SHARE OF ESCROW CANCELLATION FEES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS HEREIN.

In no event shall Buyer be entitled to actual, punitive or consequential damages. Upon Closing, Buyer waives all Seller defaults known to Buyer.
11.2.1 If Seller defaults in any Section 8 representation or warranty that survives Closing, subject to Sections 13.9 and 13.10, or if Seller has any indemnity liability under Assignment Section 5, Buyer shall be entitled to seek actual damages in an amount not exceeding an amount equal to $70,000. In no event shall Buyer be entitled to punitive or consequential or other actual damages.
