§ 8.2-610. Anticipatory repudiation.

(a) for a commercially reasonable time await performance by the repudiating party; or

(b) resort to any remedy for breach (§ 8.2-703 or § 8.2-711), even though he has notified the repudiating party that he would await the latter's performance and has urged retraction; and

(c) in either case suspend his own performance or proceed in accordance with the provisions of this title on the seller's right to identify goods to the contract notwithstanding breach or to salvage unfinished goods (§ 8.2-704).
