Tenant shall in all respects handle, treat, deal with and manage any and all Tenant’s Hazardous Materials in total conformity with all Environmental Laws and prudent industry practices regarding management of such Hazardous Materials.

Landlord or Landlord’s representative shall have the right but not the obligation to enter the Premises upon reasonable notice except in case of an emergency for the purpose of ensuring compliance with all Environmental Laws. If Tenant so contaminates the Premises, then Tenant shall promptly and diligently institute proper and thorough clean-up procedures at Tenant’s sole cost, and Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless from and against all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, costs, expenses, damages and obligations of any nature arising from or as a result of Tenant’s failure to comply with this Paragraph 48.
