Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall be permitted to terminate negotiations immediately in the event that Buyer, through its diligence investigation discovers any information related to Seller, its business or assets that Buyer deems unacceptable. |
d. | Termination: In the event the parties shall not have executed the Offer to Purchase Agreement by the final date of Exclusivity Period, either party may terminate this Letter, including the provisions of this Paragraph 3, and the parties shall have no further obligations hereunder, provided that the party initiating such termination is not in breach of any of the binding provisions of this Letter. |
