 “8.4    Developer's Remedies for Breach After Closing. If after Closing, Developer just becomes aware of a breach by Owner of Section 8.2 or Section 8.3(a)(ii), then the following provisions shall apply:
(a)    Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, all liability of Owner for a breach of Section 8.2 or Section 8.3(a)(ii) shall terminate if no suit is filed within six (6) months following the Closing.
