Not sure if this idea is possible, but it seems like something to consider. Step 1) Pay the added costs to keep existing build project "in play". Step 2) File a claim describing why one feels that they have a claim.
This approach would allow folks to stay with their build plans, and keep options open to recover some of their money based on future court findings.
If there is some language associated with the payment of additional funds, that implies that by paying the added funds - said person "will not have a claim", then go ahead and file a claim anyway. Near as I can tell, anythings goes in courts these days, and there are no limits to making claims.
Just an idea from a non-attorney spokesperson (thus, no legal advise implied).
