That channel will move funds from one side to another, meanwhile is doing routing. So in case of a force close or cooperative close, each side will get his funds that had in the moment of closure on his side.
The funds are locked until the grace period is reached, for both parties, not just one.

Ah. Sorry, I wasn't sure how it worked exactly. Thx for explaining it! I wonder why the funds are locked at all in case of a cooperative close, and why they are locked for the buyer too in case of a forced close.
