Environmental Liabilities No action, proceeding, revocation proceeding, amendment procedure, writ, injunction or claim is pending, or to the Company's knowledge, threatened concerning any Environmental Permit, Hazardous Material or any Hazardous Materials Activity of the Company. The Company is not aware of any fact or circumstance which could involve the Company in any environmental litigation or impose upon the Company any environmental liability.
Environmental Liability Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect:
(i) there is no legal, administrative, or other proceeding, claim or action of any nature seeking to impose, or that would reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of, on the Company or any Company Subsidiary, any liability relating to the release of hazardous substances as defined under any local, state or federal environmental statute, regulation or ordinance, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened against the Company or any Company Subsidiary;
(ii) to the Company’s knowledge, there is no reasonable basis for any such proceeding, claim or action; and
(iii) neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary is subject to any agreement, order, judgment or decree by or with any court, Governmental Entity or third party imposing any such environmental liability.
Litigation, Environmental and Labor Matters (a) There are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that involve this Agreement or the Transactions.
(b) Except with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability or (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability.
(c) There are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pending or, to their knowledge, threatened that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law relating to such matters that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All material payments due from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or for which any claim may be made against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as liabilities on the books of the Borrower or such Subsidiary. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement under which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is bound.
Environmental Law Compliance The use which the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries intends to make of any real Property owned by it will not result in the disposal or other release of any Hazardous Substance or solid waste on or to such real Property in violation of any Environmental Law, except any such violation which is not, and would not reasonably be expected to cause, a Material Adverse Change. As used herein, the term "release" as used in this Section shall have the meanings specified in CERCLA (as defined in the definition of applicable Environmental Laws), and the terms "solid waste" and "disposal" shall have the meaning specified in RCRA (as defined in the definition of applicable Environmental Laws); provided, however, that if CERCLA or RCRA is amended so as to broaden or narrow the meaning of any term defined thereby, such broader or narrower meaning shall apply subsequent to the effective date of such amendment; and provided further, to the extent that any other law applicable to the Borrower, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their properties and assets establishes a meaning for "hazardous substance," "release," "solid waste," or "disposal" which is broader than that specified in either CERCLA or RCRA, such broader meaning shall apply. The Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary agrees to indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against, and to reimburse them with respect to, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and courts costs) asserted or awarded against or incurred by any of them by reason of or arising out of transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (a) the failure of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to perform any obligation hereunder regarding asbestos or applicable Environmental Laws, (b) any violation by the Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary on or before the Release Date of any applicable Environmental Law in effect on or before the Release Date, and (c) any act, omission, event or circumstance existing or occurring on or prior to the Release Date, involving the presence on such real Property or release from such real Property of Hazardous Substances or solid wastes disposed of or otherwise released on or prior to the Release Date, resulting from or in connection with the ownership by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the real Property, regardless of whether the act, omission, event or circumstance constituted a violation of any applicable Environmental Law at the time of its existence or occurrence, or whether the act, omission, event or circumstance is caused by or relates to the negligence of any indemnified Person; provided, that the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent that any such liability arises as the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person, as finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Release Date and shall continue thereafter in full force and effect.
Material Liabilities The Company has no liability or obligation, absolute or contingent (individually or in the aggregate), except (i) obligations and liabilities incurred after the date of incorporation in the ordinary course of business that are not material, individually or in the aggregate, and (ii) obligations under contracts made in the ordinary course of business that would not be required to be reflected in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INDEMNITY Lessee covenants, represents and warrants to Lessor, its successors and assigns, (i) that it has not used or permitted and will not use or permit the Leased Premises to be used, whether directly or through contractors, agents or tenants, and to the best of Lessee's knowledge and except as disclosed to Lessor in writing, the Leased Premises has not at any time been used for the generating, transporting, treating, storage, manufacture, emission of, or disposal of any dangerous, toxic or hazardous pollutants, chemicals, wastes or substances as defined in the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 ("CERCLA"), the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 ("RCRA"), or any other federal, state or local environmental laws, statutes, regulations, requirements and ordinances ("Hazardous Materials"); (ii) that there have been no investigations or reports involving Lessee, or the Leased Premises by any governmental authority which in any way pertain to Hazardous Materials (iii) that the operation of the Leased Premises has not violated and is not currently violating any federal, state or local law, regulation, ordinance or requirement governing Hazardous Materials; (iv) that the Leased Premises is not listed in the United States Environmental Protection Agency's National Priorities List of Hazardous Waste Sites nor any other list, schedule, log, inventory or record of Hazardous Materials or hazardous waste sites, whether maintained by the United States Government or any state or local agency; and (v) that the Leased Premises will not contain any formaldehyde, urea or asbestos, except as may have been disclosed in writing to Lessor by Lessee at the time of execution and delivery of this Lease. Lessee agrees to indemnify and reimburse Lessor, its successors and assigns, for:
(a) any breach of these representations and warranties, and
(b) any loss, damage, expense or cost arising out of or incurred by Lessor which is the result of a breach of, misstatement of or misrepresentation of the above covenants, representations and warranties, and
(c) any and all liability of any kind whatsoever which Lessor may, for any cause and at any time, sustain or incur by reason of Hazardous Materials discovered on the Leased Premises during the term hereof or placed or released on the Leased Premises by Lessee; together with all attorneys' fees, costs and disbursements incurred in connection with the defense of any action against Lessor arising out of the above. These covenants, representations and warranties shall be deemed continuing covenants, representations and warranties for the benefit of Lessor, and any successors and assigns of Lessor and shall survive expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. The amount of all such indemnified loss, damage, expense or cost, shall bear interest thereon at the lesser of 15% or the highest rate of interest allowed by law and shall become immediately due and payable in full on demand of Lessor, its successors and assigns.
Environmental Requirements C7.1 The Contractor shall, when working on the Premises, perform its obligations under the Contract in accordance with the Authority’s environmental policy, which is to conserve energy, water, wood, paper and other resources, reduce waste and phase out the use of ozone depleting substances and minimise the release of greenhouse gases, volatile organic compounds and other substances damaging to health and the environment.
Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a location which could give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law, nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties in violation of, or in a manner that could give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law, except insofar as any such violation or liability referred to in this paragraph, or any aggregation thereof, could not reasonably be expected to result in the payment of a Material Environmental Amount.
Environmental Claims Each Obligor shall (through the Company), promptly upon becoming aware of the same, inform the Facility Agent in writing of:
(a) any Environmental Claim against any member of the Group which is current, pending or threatened; and
(b) any facts or circumstances which are reasonably likely to result in any Environmental Claim being commenced or threatened against any member of the Group, where the claim, if determined against that member of the Group, has or is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Environmental Claim The receipt from any Governmental Authority or other Person of any notice of violation, claim, demand, abatement, order or other order or direction (conditional or otherwise) for any damage, including personal injury (including sickness, disease or death), tangible or intangible property damage, contribution, indemnity, indirect or consequential damages, damage to the environment, pollution, contamination or other adverse effects on the environment, removal, cleanup or remedial action or for fines, penalties or restrictions, resulting from or based upon (i) the existence or occurrence, or the alleged existence or occurrence, of a Hazardous Substance Activity or (ii) the violation, or alleged violation, of any Hazardous Materials Laws in connection with any Mortgaged Property or any of the other assets of Borrower;
