Claim Procedure Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder only to the extent such failure has prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. In such instance, the conflicted indemnified parties shall have a right to retain one separate counsel, chosen by the Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the registration if such Holders are indemnified parties, at the expense of the indemnifying party.
Punchlist Upon completion of the Performance Tests and prior to Substantial Completion, Owner and Contractor shall inspect Subproject 3, and Contractor shall prepare a proposed Punchlist of items identified as needing to be completed or corrected as a result of such inspection. Contractor shall promptly provide the proposed Punchlist to Owner for its review, together with an estimate of the time and cost necessary to complete or correct each Punchlist item. Contractor shall add to the proposed Punchlist any Punchlist items that are identified by Owner within ten (10) Days after Owner’s receipt of the proposed Punchlist from Contractor, and Contractor shall immediately initiate measures to complete or correct, as appropriate, any item on Contractor’s proposed Punchlist (including those items identified by Owner during Owner’s review) that are not of a Punchlist nature. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Contractor and Owner are not required as a condition of Substantial Completion to agree upon and identify every Punchlist item and include it on the Punchlist, but Contractor is required to complete as a condition of Substantial Completion all Work that does not meet the definition of Punchlist as provided in Section 1.1. In the event of a dispute regarding whether a specific item of Work meets the definition of Punchlist under Section 1.1, the Parties shall resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 18.1A. Owner shall provide Contractor with access to the Work after Substantial Completion sufficient to enable Contractor to complete all Punchlist items, so long as such access does not unreasonably interfere with operation of Subproject 3 after Substantial Completion or Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement and subject to any reasonable security or safety requirements of Owner. Upon Contractor’s completion or correction of any items necessary to achieve Substantial Completion, as modified by any Owner additions, such Punchlist shall govern Contractor’s performance of the Punchlist items up to Final Completion. All Work on the Punchlist shall be completed by the date required for Final Completion, as specified in Section 5.3C, or Owner may, in addition to any other rights that it may have under this Agreement, complete such Punchlist Work at the expense of Contractor. In the event Owner elects to complete such Punchlist Work, Contractor shall pay Owner, within ten (10) Days after receipt of written notice from Owner, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Owner in performing such Punchlist Work, or, at Owner’s sole discretion, Owner may withhold or offset amounts owed to Contractor or collect on the Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 7.8 in the amount of such costs and expenses. Any Defective Work identified after agreement between the Parties of the Punchlist shall be corrected by Contractor as a Warranty item under Article 12.
Direct Claim Procedures In the event an Indemnified Party has a claim for indemnity under Section 7.02 against the Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party agrees to give notice in writing of such claim to the Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have actually materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following the receipt of a notice with respect to any such claim that the Indemnifying Party disputes its indemnity obligation to the Indemnified Party for any Losses with respect to such claim, such Losses shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnified Party any and all Losses arising out of such claim. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its indemnity obligation for any Losses with respect to such claim, the parties shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through such negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration determined pursuant to Section 9.06.
Punch List If, at any time after the Project has been Physically Completed, there shall exist any item or items requiring completion or correction, then the Developer agrees to use all reasonable diligence to complete or correct such item or items so that each conforms to the Final Plans. The parties shall make a Punch-List of the items requiring completion or correction (the "Punch List"). Each item on the Punch-List shall be assigned a reasonable value based upon the reasonable cost of completion or correction of the same or such other value as may be required by the Owner's lender ("Punch-List Amount"). The Developer shall give its written undertaking to complete each such item within forty-five (45) days (or such other period of time as is mutually agreed upon by the parties).

Tenant Repairs Except for those items for which Landlord is responsible by virtue of Section 4.02 below, Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, clean, repair, maintain and replace the interior of the Premises and any improvements, equipment and fixtures therein, including without limitation all plate glass, lighting and other fixtures and equipment inside the Premises whether or not they were initially installed at Landlord's expense, and any HVAC, electrical and mechanical systems that service the Premises, so as to keep them in good operating condition and in compliance with the requirements from time to time of all governmental authorities having jurisdiction. All repairs, maintenance and/or replacements made by Tenant shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld provided that the same are at least equal in quality and class to the original work and/or fixtures and equipment. In the event that Tenant fails to make any necessary repairs, Landlord shall have the right, at its option, after providing written notice to Tenant, to perform on behalf of Tenant any repair or replacement approved by Landlord and one hundred five percent (105%) of the reasonable cost and expense incurred shall be due within thirty (30) days of demand. Landlord and Tenant agree that the Landlord will obtain a reasonable and customary maintenance, repair and service contract on the HVAC system serving the Premises, the cost of which shall be billed to Tenant and shall be deemed to be Additional Rent. The parties agree that, notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant's obligation to pay for the maintenance, repair and replacement of the Building-standard systems (which includes the HVAC, sprinkler, electrical and plumbing systems) serving the Premises shall be limited to: (i) the cost of maintaining and making minor repairs to the Building-standard systems serving the Premises; (ii) the cost of the afore-mentioned service contract on the HVAC system; (iii) Tenant's Share of any such costs that are included in Operating Expenses; and (iv) the first $4,000.00 per year of the cost of major repairs or the cost of replacing such Building-standard systems serving the Premises. Tenant shall promptly place all of its refuse in the trash receptacles provided for this purpose and shall not allow same to accumulate within the Premises or anywhere on the Common Areas. It is understood and agreed that all property of Tenant kept, stored or maintained in the Premises or the Project shall be at the sole risk of Tenant. Tenant agrees at its sole cost and expense to comply with all present and future laws regarding the collection, sorting, separation and recycling of waste products, garbage, refuse and trash.
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.
REPAIRS AND IMPROVEMENTS 14.1 Prior to registration of transfer, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to effect any alterations to the Property without the prior written consent of the Seller.
14.2 The Seller shall not be obliged to compensate the Purchaser for any authorised alteration effected in the event of the sale being cancelled.
14.3 The Purchaser shall be liable for any damages suffered by the Seller as a result of any alterations effected by the Purchaser, not authorised by the Seller.
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.
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).
