event the DEVELOPER otherwise breaches the terms of this AGREEMENT, which
default has not been cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such
default, the City may file suit within the Circuit Court for the Sixteenth Judicial Circuit,
Kane County, Illinois, for a determination that the DEVELOPER has so breached this
agreement and may then pursue any and all available remedies at law, equity or otherwise
including but not limited to recapturing the amount of any subsidy provided under this
AGREEMENT and/or terminating the DEVELOPER's and any purchaser's rights in and
to the PROPERTY and requiring the conveyance of the PROPERTY back to the CITY
free and clear of all rights of the DEVELOPER and any other person or entity. Upon the
expiration of the affordability period, the CITY agrees to provide the DEVELOPER a
release from the deed restrictions in recordable form. Notwithstanding the foregoing to
8
the contrary, DEVELOPER shall have the right to make it a deed restriction that it shall
have the right of first refusal to repurchase the PROPERTY should the purchaser sell the
PROPERTY to a subsequent buyer who is not deemed an INCOME ELIGIBLE
