The agreement for the sale of the laundromat business to plaintiffs provides: "Contract subject to assuming or negotiating lease acceptable to purchasers.” The record establishes that plaintiffs were unable to assume or negotiate a lease acceptable to them. Therefore, plaintiffs are entitled to the return of their deposit
