Periodic Review of Costs of Environmental Compliance In the ordinary course of its business, the Company conducts a periodic review of the effect of Environmental Laws on the business, operations and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review and the amount of its established reserves, the Company has reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.
Environmental Monitoring (a) Borrower shall give prompt written notice to Lender of (i) any proceeding or inquiry by any party (including any Governmental Authority) with respect to the presence of any Hazardous Substance on, under, from or about the Property, (ii) all claims made or threatened by any third party (including any Governmental Authority) against Borrower or the Property or any party occupying the Property relating to any loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous Substance, and (iii) Borrower’s discovery of any occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Property that could cause the Property to be subject to any investigation or cleanup pursuant to any Environmental Law. Upon becoming aware of the presence of mold or fungus at the Property, Borrower shall (i) undertake an investigation to identify the source(s) of such mold or fungus and, to the extent required by applicable law, shall develop and implement an appropriate remediation plan to eliminate the presence of any Toxic Mold, (ii) perform or cause to be performed all acts reasonably necessary for the remediation of any Toxic Mold (including taking any action necessary to clean and disinfect any portions of the Property affected by Toxic Mold, including providing any necessary moisture control systems at the Property), and (iii) provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of the foregoing. Borrower shall permit Lender to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any legal or administrative proceedings or other actions initiated with respect to the Property in connection with any Environmental Law or Hazardous Substance, and Borrower shall pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred by Lender in connection therewith. (b) If Lender, on its good faith judgment, determines that reasonable cause exists for the performance of an environmental inspection or audit of the Property, at any time and from time to time upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall provide such inspection or audit of the Property prepared by a licensed hydrogeologist, licensed environmental engineer or qualified environmental consulting firm approved by Lender assessing the presence or absence of Hazardous Substances on, in or near the Property, and if Lender in its good faith judgment determines that reasonable cause exists for the performance of such environmental inspection or audit, then the cost and expense of such audit or inspection shall be paid by Borrower. Such inspections and audit may include soil borings and ground water monitoring. If Borrower fails to provide any such inspection or audit within thirty (30) days after such request, Lender may order same, and Borrower hereby grants to Lender and its employees and agents access to the Property and a license to undertake such inspection or audit. (c) If any environmental site assessment report prepared in connection with such inspection or audit recommends that an operations and maintenance plan be implemented for any Hazardous Substance, whether such Hazardous Substance existed prior to the ownership of the Property by Borrower, or presently exists or is reasonably suspected of existing, Borrower shall cause such operations and maintenance plan to be prepared and implemented at its expense upon request of Lender, to the extent required by applicable law, and with respect to any Toxic Mold, Borrower shall, to the extent required by applicable law, take all action necessary to clean and disinfect any portions of the Improvements affected by Toxic Mold in or about the Improvements, including providing any necessary moisture control systems at the Property. If any investigation, site monitoring, containment, cleanup, removal, restoration or other work of any kind is reasonably necessary under an applicable Environmental Law (“Remedial Work”), Borrower shall commence all such Remedial Work within thirty (30) days after written demand by Lender and thereafter diligently prosecute to completion all such Remedial Work within such period of time as may be required under applicable law. All Remedial Work shall be performed by licensed contractors approved in advance by Lender and under the supervision of a consulting engineer approved by Lender which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All costs of such Remedial Work shall be paid by Borrower, including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred in connection with the monitoring or review of such Remedial Work. If Borrower does not timely commence and diligently prosecute to completion the Remedial Work, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) cause such Remedial Work to be performed at Borrower’s expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be required to commence such Remedial Work within the above specified time period: (x) if prevented from doing so by any Governmental Authority, (y) if commencing such Remedial Work within such time period would result in Borrower or such Remedial Work violating any Environmental Law, or (z) if Borrower, at its expense and after prior written notice to Lender, is contesting by appropriate legal, administrative or other proceedings, conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the need to perform Remedial Work. Borrower shall have the right to contest the need to perform such Remedial Work, provided that, (1) Borrower is permitted by the applicable Environmental Laws to delay performance of the Remedial Work pending such proceedings, (2) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be sold, forfeited or lost if Borrower fails to promptly perform the Remedial Work being contested, and if Borrower fails to prevail in contest, Borrower would thereafter have the opportunity to perform such Remedial Work, (3) Lender would not, by virtue of such permitted contest, be exposed to any risk of any civil liability for which Borrower has not furnished additional security as provided in clause (4) below, or to any risk of criminal liability, and neither the Property nor any interest therein would be subject to the imposition of any Lien for which Borrower has not furnished additional security as provided in clause (4) below, as a result of the failure to perform such Remedial Work and (4) Borrower shall have furnished to Lender additional security in respect of the Remedial Work being contested and the loss or damage that may result from Borrower’s failure to prevail in such contest in such amount as may be reasonably requested by Lender but in no event less than the cost of such Remedial Work as estimated by Lender and Borrower or Lender’s Consultant and any loss or damage that may result from Borrower’s failure to prevail in such contest. (d) Borrower shall not install or permit to be installed on the Property any underground storage tank.
