The purchaser will be notified again when it is in final testing and when to expect delivery. The purchaser has fourteen days to remit the balance, or forfeit the aircraft. Failure by purchaser to accept airplane as agreed when notified by seller forfeits the deposit as liquidated damages for breach of said acceptance and thereupon seller has the right to otherwise dispose of the aircraft with no further liability of purchaser to seller, or seller to purchaser with regard to aircraft agreement.
Seller will not be held liable for any delay in making delivery for any cause whatsoever; provided, however, if seller should fail to make delivery of airplane within six (6) months after promised date of delivery, purchaser shall have the right to demand return of said deposit and forfeit delivery of the aircraft.

If alterations to the order are made by the purchaser after the agreement is signed, the guaranteed price will be adjusted to reflect the change in options. Also, ACAC is not liable for guaranteeing that the said changes will be made if these changes are made after the initial signed agreement. If a change is requested and not made to the aircraft upon delivery, no charge for the change will be incurred by the purchaser.
