limited to delays by or closing of lenders, title insurance companies, appraisers, inspectors, town land records offices, closing
attorneys or otherwise (hereinafter “Unforeseen Circumstances”), the Parties agree as follows:
All other provisions of the Agreement remain in full force and effect.
1. Buyer and Seller agree to postpone closing by up to 14 or ____ Days to accommodate Unforeseen Circumstances, after
which either Party may cancel the Agreement and Buyer’s deposit shall be returned to Buyer. Throughout the term of the
contract, including during the extension period agreed to herein, the Parties agree to use best efforts and act in good faith,
including but not limited to identifying alternatives to an affected contingency or closing service in order to move the transaction
towards the closing as quickly and efficiently as possible.
2. Other:
By signing below, Buyer and Seller each acknowledge that they have read, understand, accept and have received a copy of the
