hereto ("Parties"), the Parties hereby covenant and agree as follows:

Survey to remove such Unpermitted Exceptions. If the Village is not obligated to, or fails to, remove any
such Unpermitted Exceptions, Purchaser may elect, within five (5) days after the date on which such
Unpermitted Exceptions were required to be removed by the Village, to either (i) terminate this
Agreement (in which event, all Earnest Money and interest accrued thereon shall be immediately returned

under this Agreement.
B. Permitted Delays Neither the Village, the Purchaser, nor any successor in interest to the
Purchaser, shall be considered in breach of its obligations with respect to the commencement and
completion of construction of the Improvements in the event of delay in the performance of such
obligations due to unforeseeable causes beyond such party's control and without such party's
fault or negligence, including, but not limited to, a downturn in economic conditions as evidenced
by an increase in the prime rate as disclosed in the Wall Street Journal of greater than 3% within
any one-year period, any delays or stoppages in construction of the Improvements which are
