Environmental Assessment Buyer shall have the right for a period commencing upon execution of this Agreement by both parties and ending on November 28, 2012, to conduct an environmental assessment of the Assets, at Buyer’s sole risk, liability and expense. Seller shall make available to Buyer, during the environmental assessment period described above, Seller’s historical files regarding prior operations on the Assets, and provide Buyer and its representatives with reasonable access to the Assets to conduct the environmental assessment. Buyer shall provide Seller three (3) days prior written notice of a desired date(s) for such assessment and Seller shall have the right to be present during any assessment and, if any testing is conducted pursuant to Seller’s express prior written consent, Seller may require splitting of all samples. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall not have the right to drill any test, monitor or other xxxxx or to extract samples of any air, soil, water or other substance from the Assets without Seller’s express prior written consent. If Buyer proposes a reasonable request to drill a test well or extract a sample pursuant to a systematic and customary procedure for the assessment of the environmental condition of the Assets and Seller refuses to grant its consent to such a well or sampling, then Buyer shall have the right, for a period of seventy-two (72) hours following notification of Seller’s refusal to consent, to deliver written notice to Seller of Buyer’s election to exclude from this transaction the portion of the Assets affected by such proposed test well or sample, and the Purchase Price shall be adjusted accordingly by the Allocated Value of such portion of the Assets so excluded. Under no circumstances whatsoever shall Seller ever be obligated to grant its consent to any such test xxxxx or sampling proposed by Buyer, and Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy for any refusal by Seller to grant its consent shall be the limited right contained in the preceding sentence to exclude the affected Assets from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If Buyer fails to exercise the right to exclude such Assets by written notice to Seller delivered prior to the expiration of the seventy-two hour period described above, then Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have waived such right and shall be obligated to purchase the affected Assets without conducting such testing or sampling or any adjustment of the Purchase Price unless otherwise provided in this Agreement.
Environmental Assessments Foreclose on or take a deed or title to any commercial real estate without first conducting a Phase I environmental assessment of the property or foreclose on any commercial real estate if such environmental assessment indicates the presence of a Hazardous Substance in amounts which, if such foreclosure were to occur, would be material.
Environmental Report Prior to the Closing, the Company shall (i) provide to Purchaser a letter from the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality ("DEQ") stating that no further investigation or remediation will be required by DEQ related to the two fuel oil underground storage tanks formerly located at KOLN-TV, Lincoln, Nebraska and noted in Section 4.7 of the Environmental Report related to KOLN-TV (the "Former USTs"), or (ii) cause, at its sole cost and expense, Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx or such other environmental consultant as shall be reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (the "Environmental Consultant") to perform an investigation, consistent with applicable state regulations (the "Investigation"), of the area surrounding the Former USTs to determine if contamination from the Former USTs is present. In the event actionable levels of contamination related to the Former USTs are detected by such Investigation, the Stockholders may, at their sole discretion, elect to cause the Company to remediate the identified contamination in compliance with applicable state regulations (the "Remedial Action"). In the event the Stockholders do not make such election or the Remedial Action is not completed on or prior to the Closing Date, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount determined by the Environmental Consultant to be reasonably necessary to complete the Remedial Action. The Company shall keep the Purchaser reasonably apprised of the status of any Investigation or Remedial Action by providing the Purchaser with Material documents and information relating to the performance of the Investigation and Remedial Action. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall further cause Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx or the Environmental Consultant to visually observe the towers located in Beaver Crossing and Heartwell, Nebraska and provide a letter report summarizing such observations to Purchaser and the Company. The Environmental Consultant's costs to conduct such visual observations shall be paid equally by the Stockholders and Purchaser. Such letter report shall state that no condition exists with respect to the assets currently owned, leased, operated, or controlled by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries that has resulted in, or would reasonably be expected to result in, any violation of an Environmental Law, any Environmental Claim, or in any Liability relating to an Environmental Matter. Such report shall include an estimate of the total cost of remedying any such condition reported therein. In the event such letter report indicates that such a condition exists, the Stockholders shall remedy such condition to Purchaser's reasonable satisfaction within ninety (90) days after the date of the Stockholders' receipt of the final draft of the letter report. If such condition cannot be remedied to Purchaser's reasonable satisfaction within ninety (90) days, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount determined by Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx or the Environmental Consultant to be reasonably necessary to remedy such condition.
