JOHNSON, Justice.

This is a real estate contract case. The primary issues presented are whether the parties entered into a contract, and, if so, whether the default clause of the contract precludes the buyers from obtaining specific performance when the seller failed to consummate the sale. We conclude that there is a contract and that the contract precludes the buyers from obtaining specific performance.
