Buyer covering such repair or replacement. If the failed or damaged Inclusion or Service is not repaired or replaced on or before

dispute is not resolved within thirty days of the date written notice requesting mediation is delivered by one party to the other at that

discretion, has several options: (1) wait for any proceeding between Buyer and Seller; (2) interplead all parties and deposit Earnest
727
Money into a court of competent jurisdiction (Earnest Money Holder is entitled to recover court costs and reasonable attorney and
728
legal fees incurred with such action); or (3) provide notice to Buyer and Seller that unless Earnest Money Holder receives a copy of
729
the Summons and Complaint or Claim (between Buyer and Seller) containing the case number of the lawsuit (Lawsuit) within one
730
hundred twenty days of Earnest Money Holders notice to the parties, Earnest Money Holder is authorized to return the Earnest
731
Money to Buyer. In the event Earnest Money Holder does receive a copy of the Lawsuit and has not interpled the monies at the time
732
of any Order, Earnest Money Holder must disburse the Earnest Money pursuant to the Order of the Court. The parties reaffirm the
733
obligation of § 23 (Mediation). This Section will survive cancellation or termination of this Contract.
