     Buyer/Seller Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration Association.  Each
     party agrees to bear its own costs of mediation.  Any  Agreement  signed by
     the parties pursuant to the mediation shall be binding. If mediation fails,
     the procedures  applicable and remedies available under this Contract shall
     apply.  Nothing in this  Section  shall  prohibit  the Buyer  from  seeking
     specific  performance  by the Seller by filing a complaint  with the court,
     serving it on the Seller by means of summons or as  otherwise  permitted by
     law,  and  recording a lis pendens  with  -----------  regard to the action
     provided  that the Buyer  permits the Seller to refrain from  answering the
     complaint  pending  mediation.  Also,  the  parties may agree in writing to
     waive mediation.

     Money Deposit as liquidated damages or to return
