Effect of Investigation The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in Section 7.02 or Section 7.03, as the case may be.
Investigation by Buyer Buyer has conducted its own independent review and analysis of the business, operations, technology, assets, liabilities, results of operations, financial condition and prospects of the Companies and acknowledges that Sellers have provided Buyer with the access requested by Buyer to the personnel, properties, premises and records of the Companies for this purpose. In entering into this Agreement, Buyer has relied upon its own investigation and analysis as well as the representations and warranties of Sellers contained in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and Buyer (a) acknowledges that none of Sellers, the Companies or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives makes or has made any representation or warranty, either express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any of the information provided or made available to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives, and (b) agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that neither Sellers, the Companies nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives on any basis (including, without limitation, in contract or tort, under federal or state securities laws or otherwise) based upon any information provided or made available, or statements made, to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives (or any omissions therefrom), except in the case of clauses (a) and (b) as and only to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement with respect to the representations and warranties of Sellers in Article III and subject to the limitations and restrictions contained in this Agreement.
Investigation by Purchaser Seller will (a) provide Purchaser and its officers, employees, counsel, accountants, financial advisors, potential lenders, Purchaser's and potential lenders' consultants and other representatives (collectively, "Representatives") with full access, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours, to the Employees and such other officers, employees and agents of Seller who have any responsibility for the PSE Colstrip Interests, to Seller's accountants and, subject to the terms and conditions of the Colstrip Contracts, to the Assets (including, to the extent it is within Seller's power to do so, access to the Colstrip 1, 2, 3 and 4 site), but only to the extent that such access does not unreasonably interfere with Seller's business and the operation of the Assets, (b) make available to Purchaser and its Representatives, upon request, a copy of each report, schedule or other document filed or received by Seller between the Bid Date and the Closing with or from the SEC, FERC, EPA, WUTC or any other relevant Governmental or Regulatory Authority and relating to the ownership, operation and maintenance of the Assets or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and all such information and data (including copies of Business Contracts, Transferable Permits, Fuel Contracts, Colstrip Contracts, and other Books and Records) concerning the ownership, operation and maintenance of the PSE Colstrip Interests and the Assets and the Assumed Liabilities as Purchaser or its Representatives reasonably may request in connection with such investigation, except to the extent that furnishing any such report, schedule, other documents, information or data would violate any Law, Order (including any protective order or similar confidentiality obligation), Contract, License or Environmental Permit applicable to Seller or by which any of its Assets and Properties is bound. In furtherance of the foregoing, Seller agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in connection with Purchaser's efforts to obtain Purchaser Financing, as defined in Section 5.07. Seller's cooperation shall include the negotiation and execution of a consent with the lenders with respect to the Operative Agreements, which consent shall include providing such lenders with rights to cure a Purchaser default under the Operative Agreements; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated, in connection with such cooperation or consent, to take any action or enter into any agreement that would have any adverse effect on Seller or any of its rights or benefits under this Agreement or the Operative Agreements.
INFORMAL ACTION BY MEMBERS Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the Members may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the Members having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Members entitled to vote thereon were present and voted with respect to the subject matter thereof.
Investigation and Confidentiality (a) Prior to the Effective Time, each Party shall keep the other Party advised of all material developments relevant to its business and to consummation of the Merger and shall permit the other Party to make or cause to be made such investigation of the business and properties of it and its Subsidiaries and of their respective financial and legal conditions as the other Party reasonably requests, provided that such investigation shall be reasonably related to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not interfere unnecessarily with normal operations. No investigation by a Party shall affect the representations and warranties of the other Party.
Confidentiality of Proceedings The parties hereto agree that all of the arbitration proceedings provided for herein, including any notice of claim, the Notice of Arbitration, the submissions of the parties, and the Final Determination issued by the arbitrator, shall be confidential and shall not be disclosed at any time to any person other than the parties, their representatives, the arbitrator and the Additional Notice Parties; provided, however, that this provision shall not prevent the party prevailing in the arbitration from submitting the Final Determination to a court for the purpose of enforcing the award, subject to comparable confidentiality protections if the court agrees; and further provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit disclosure to the minimum extent reasonably necessary to comply with (i) applicable law (or requirement having the force of law), court order, judgment or decree, including, without limitation, disclosures which may be required pursuant to applicable securities laws, and (ii) the terms of contractual arrangements (such as financing arrangements) to which the Company or any Additional Notice Party may be subject so long as such contractual arrangements were not entered into for the primary purpose of permitting disclosure which would otherwise be prohibited hereunder.

In determining whether to make this investment, Subscriber has relied solely on Subscriber’s own knowledge and understanding of the Company and its business based upon Subscriber’s own due diligence investigation and the information furnished pursuant to this paragraph. Subscriber understands that no person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations which were not furnished pursuant to this Section 2 and Subscriber has not relied on any other representations or information in making its investment decision, whether written or oral, relating to the Company, its operations and/or its prospects.
