Environmental Definitions The following terms, as used herein, have the following meanings:
Property Defined The Land, the Improvements, the Personal Property, the Leases and the Intangibles are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as the "Property."
Grievance Defined A grievance is defined as an alleged breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. It is the desire of the parties to this Agreement that grievances be adjusted informally wherever possible and at the first level of supervision.
Title Defect (a) In the event Seller receives notice of any Survey Objection or Title Objection (collectively and individually a “Title Defect”) within the time periods required under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to attempt to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any such Title Defect, and shall provide Purchaser with notice within five (5) days of its receipt of any such objection, of its intention to attempt to cure such any such Title Defect. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Title Defect, the Scheduled Closing Date shall be extended for a period of twenty (20) days for the purpose of such removal. In the event that (i) Seller elects not to attempt to cure any such Title Defect, or (ii) Seller is unable to cure any such Title Defect within such twenty (20) days from the Scheduled Closing Date, Seller shall so notify Purchaser and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.3(a) and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, together with all interest which has accrued thereon, or to waive such Title Defect and proceed to the Closing. Purchaser shall make such election by written notice to Seller within three (3) days after receipt of Seller’s notice. If Seller has elected to cure a Title Defect and thereafter fails to timely cure such Title Defect, and Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, then (i) Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with this transaction incurred after the date on which Seller informed Purchaser of its election to cure the Title Defect, not to exceed the Reimbursement Cap, and (ii) Purchaser shall promptly return Purchaser’s Information to Seller, after which neither party shall have any further obligation to the other under this Agreement except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser elects to proceed to the Closing, any Title Defects waived by Purchaser shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions, and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. If, within the three-day period, Purchaser fails to notify Seller of Purchaser’s election to terminate, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the Title Defect and to have elected to proceed to the Closing. (b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Article VI to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated to cure exceptions to title to the Property, in the manner described above, relating to liens and security interests securing any financings to Seller, any judgment liens, which are in existence on the Effective Date, or which come into existence after the Effective Date, and any mechanic’s liens resulting from work at the Property commissioned by Seller; provided, however, that any such mechanic’s lien may be cured by bonding in accordance with Pennsylvania law. In addition, Seller shall be obligated to pay off any outstanding real estate taxes that were due and payable prior to the Closing (but subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 10.4 below).
Title Defects 9.1 Purchaser shall have until April 21, 1999 in which to examine the Commitment and the Surveys. If Purchaser finds title to be defective, Purchaser shall, no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 21, 1999, notify Seller in writing, specifying the title defect(s). If Purchaser fails to give Seller written notice of any title defect(s) before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 21, 1999, the defects shown in the Commitment or the Surveys shall be deemed to be waived as title objections to closing this transaction. 9.2 If Purchaser has given Seller timely written notice of defect(s) and the defect(s) render the title other than as represented in this Agreement or if any new defects appear from the date of the Commitment through the Closing Date, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause only those defects recorded after October 7, 1997 to be cured by the Closing Date. Seller agrees to remove, by payment, bonding or otherwise, any such lien (other than environmental liens) against the Property capable of removal by the payment of money or bonding. Seller shall not be obligated to (but may, in its sole and absolute discretion) cure any other defect or to buyout or settle any other claim or lien against the Property. At Seller's option, the Closing Date may be extended for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days for purposes of eliminating such title defects. If such additional time is reasonably required by Seller to cure such title defects, Seller's failure to extend the Closing Date shall be commercially unreasonable. 9.3 If Seller does not eliminate such defects as of the Closing Date, as the same may be extended under the preceding sentence, or if any new "title defects" appear between the date of the Commitment through the Closing Date which Seller does not eliminate as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option to: 9.3.1 Close and accept the title "as is," without reduction in the Purchase Price and without claim against Seller for such title defects (except for any lien that Seller is required to cure pursuant to Section 9.2 that can be removed by the payment of money or bonding, for which credit shall be given Purchaser at the Closing unless Seller pays the same at the Closing) (and in such event, the Closing shall take place on the Closing Date); or 9.3.2 Cancel this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent, subject to the provisions of Section 11.3, shall return the Deposit, together with all interest earned thereon, to Purchaser, and both parties shall be released from all further obligations under this Agreement, except for those which expressly survive such termination, unless such title defects were caused by Seller's willful act or willful omission, in which event Seller shall remain liable to Purchaser for damages caused by such title defects.
Grievance Definitions A grievance shall be defined as any difference arising out of an interpretation, application, administration or alleged violation of this Collective Agreement. A grievance shall be categorized as follows: (a) an individual grievance is a dispute affecting one (1) Employee. Such grievance shall be initiated at Step 1 of the grievance procedure as outlined in Clause 8.05 except in cases of suspension which will commence at Step 2 or dismissal which will commence at Step 3; or (b) a group grievance is a dispute affecting two (2) or more Employees. Such grievance shall be initiated at Step 2 and processed there from in the same manner as an individual grievance as outlined in Clause 8.05. A group grievance shall list all Employees affected by the grievance and the results of such grievance shall apply, proportionately if applicable, to all Employees listed on the original grievance; or (c) a policy grievance is a dispute between the Parties which, due to its nature, is not properly the subject of an individual or group grievance. Such grievance shall be initiated, in writing, within twenty (20) days of the date the aggrieved Party first became aware of or reasonably should have become aware of the event leading to the grievance. If the policy grievance is a Union grievance, it shall commence at Step 2. If the policy grievance is an Employer grievance, it shall be directed to the Union President and the President shall render a written reply within five (5) days of receipt. Upon receipt of response or failure to reply, the Employer may advance the grievance to arbitration. Notwithstanding Clause 8.01(a), (b) and (c) and Clause 8.05 the Parties may mutually agree to advance the grievance to a subsequent step in the grievance process. In the event any management officers as named in the grievance steps are one and the same, the subsequent steps will be deemed to have been complied with.

Where the singular is used, it may also be deemed to mean the plural and vice-versa.
Environmental Defects If Buyer determines that with respect to the Asset there exists an Environmental Condition (other than with respect to asbestos, asbestos containing materials, or NORM, and excluding any matter set forth on Schedule 6.10) (in each case, an “Environmental Defect”), then on or prior to the Defect Claim Date, Buyer may give Seller a written notice of such Environmental Defect that sets forth the information required by this Section 3.17 (an “Environmental Defect Notice”). For all purposes of this Agreement and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any Environmental Defect that Buyer fails to timely and properly assert as an Environmental Defect by an Environmental Defect Notice received by Seller on or before the Defect Claim Date. To be effective, an Environmental Defect Notice must set forth (a) a clear description of the matter constituting the alleged Environmental Defect, (b) a description of each Asset (or portion thereof) affected by the alleged Environmental Defect, (c) the estimated proportionate share attributable to the Assets of the estimated Lowest Cost Response to eliminate the alleged Environmental Defect (the “Environmental Defect Amount”), and (d) supporting documents and reasonably necessary for Seller to verify the existence of the alleged Environmental Defect and the Environmental Defect Amount. Buyer shall furnish Seller, on or before the end of each calendar week prior to the Defect Claim Date, Environmental Defect Notices with respect to any Environmental Defects that any of Buyer’s or any of its Affiliate’s employees, representatives, attorneys, or other environmental personnel or contractors discover or become aware of during the preceding calendar week, which notice may be preliminary in nature and supplemented prior to the Defect Claim Date; provided that notwithstanding this sentence, any Environmental Defect Notice shall be deemed timely if received by Seller prior to the Defect Claim Date.
