They may be inclined to break the contract if they receive sufficient offer to do so because an aggrieved buyer with the benefit of a lockout agreement will still have to show losses as a consequence of the breach and these may not amount to the extra amount that the owner may secure by breaking the contract, however morally shameful that may be.
