The date of termination as that term is used in this Subsec- tion VIII shall, in every instance, be the 60th day after the day the Affected Jurisdiction sends notice of default, in the mail to the address shown in the Tax Abatement Agree- ment to the Applicant or Owner. Should the default be cured by the Owner or Applicant within the sixty (60) day notice period, the Owner/Applicant shall be responsible for so advising the Affected Jurisdiction and obtaining a release from the notice of default from the Affected Jurisdiction, failing in which, the abatement remains terminated and the abated taxes must be paid. 7. In every case of termination set forth in Subparagraphs 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 above, the Affected Jurisdiction to which the application for tax abatement was directed shall determine whether default has occurred by Owner (Applicant) in the terms and conditions of the Tax Abatement Agreement and shall so notify all other Affected Jurisdictions. Termina- tion of the Tax Abatement Agreement by the Affected Juris- diction to which the application for tax abatement was directed shall constitute simultaneous termination of all Tax Abatement Agreements of all other Affected Jurisdic- tions. 8. In the event that a tax abatement agreement is terminated for any reason whatsoever, and taxes are not paid within the time period herein specified, then in such event, the provi- sions of V.T.C.A., Tax Code, Section 33.01 will apply.
