REIMBURSEMENT.  PURCHASER IS SOLELY  RESPONSIBLE  FOR INQUIRING  INTO AND VERIFYING

items and bear any nominal  expense to correct  the same prior to Closing.  If such
unsatisfactory  title  condition(s)  are not corrected on or before  Closing,  this

Contract, deposited with Seller the sum of $10,000.00 as an initial earnest money
