Agent will preserve any confidential information obtained during another agency relationship or in a prior or pending transaction or business relationship.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST (SELLERS) In the event Buyer becomes interested in a property listed by Agent (check as applicable): This agreement shall automatically terminate only regarding that seller's property (but shall continue as to all other real property) and Agent shall continue the agency relationship with the seller where the agency relationship was terminated pursuant to his paragraph. Any fees previously paid to Agent by Buyer pursuant to this agreement shall be returned to Buyer at closing. Agent shall act as disclosed dual agent of both Buyer and the seller.

Agent shall act as a transaction coordinator to facilitate the transaction, and not as an agent for either Buyer or the seller. In such event, Agent shall be entitled to any fees owed by Buyer pursuant to this agreement. BUYER DISCLOSURE Buyer agrees to disclose to Agent relevant personal and financial information to assure Agent that Buyer has the ability to complete any transaction which is the subject of this agreement. Buyer hereby grants to Agent the authority to disclose such information as Agent deems necessary or appropriate in order to influence the decision of a seller to accept an offer from Buyer.
