If Buyer fails to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing sentence within said fifteen (15) business day period, Buyer shall complete the acquisition of the Property, in which case Seller shall assign to Buyer the interest of Seller in all insurance proceeds relating to such damage. Seller shall consult with Buyer regarding any proposed settlement with the insurer and Buyer shall have the reasonable right of approval thereof.
