required work on the Unfinished Lots within ninety (90) days from the date of Closing (“ Completion Date ”).  Seller anticipates that the funds required to complete the required work on the Unfinished Lots will be paid by the surety company (the “ Surety ”) that issued a bond with respect to the Unfinished Lots, pursuant to a Settlement Agreement by and between the Surety and the CDD (“ Settlement Agreement ”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C” .

The escrow agent pursuant to the said Escrow Agreement shall pay to the CDD the funds needed to complete the required work on the Unfinished Lots.  In the event the Unfinished Lots are not completed by the Completion Date, in addition to, and/or, in the alternative to, the remedies set forth herein, Purchaser may act to cause the Unfinished Lots to be completed, and obtain reimbursement therefor first, from, CDD Construction Fund (if available), then from, the Escrow Funds remaining in said Escrow Agreement, and thereafter from the Seller, for any remaining unpaid balance of Purchaser’s costs and expenses directly associated therewith.  This provision shall survive the Closing, and in the event of a default, Purchaser shall have the default remedies, including after Closing, of specific performance, and/or the right to recover actual but not consequential, punitive, or other  damages.  Paragraph XXVI, Section C shall apply to any action brought related to the provisions of this Section.
