requirements concerning its nationality, residence,
identity, or connection with Canada if such compliance
is required as a precondition to relief or exemption
from such tax, governmental charge, or assessment. Any
default of payment under this section shall entitle
3838421 to rescind the sale of the Property, in which
case all Property sold hereunder shall be returned
forthwith to 3838421 with 3838421 retaining all payments
then received from EBUX.

shall not be unreasonably withheld), be subtracted
from the next succeeding payments due 3838421

year, in which case 3838421 shall repay such
amount to EBUX within sixty (60) days of its
receipt of such audited financial statements.
