Environmental Indemnification Borrower shall protect, indemnify, save, defend, and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, actions, causes of action, costs or expenses whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and any and all claims, suits and judgments which any Indemnified Party may suffer, as a result of or with respect to: (a) any Environmental Claim relating to or arising from the Property; (b) the violation of any Environmental Law in connection with the Property; (c) any release, spill, or the presence of any Hazardous Materials affecting the Property; and (d) the presence at, in, on or under, or the release, escape, seepage, leakage, discharge or migration at or from, the Property of any Hazardous Materials, whether or not such condition was known or unknown to Borrower; provided that, in each case, Borrower shall be relieved of its obligation under this subsection if any of the matters referred to in clauses (a) through (d) above did not occur (but need not have been discovered) prior to (1) the foreclosure of the Security Instrument, (2) the delivery by Borrower to Lender or its designee of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure with respect to the Property, or (3) Lender’s or its designee’s taking possession and control of the Property after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. If any such action or other proceeding shall be brought against Lender, upon written notice from Borrower to Lender (given reasonably promptly following Lender’s notice to Borrower of such action or proceeding), Borrower shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, at Borrower’s expense, with counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender; provided, however, Lender may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to participate in such defense, but such participation shall not be deemed to give Lender a right to control such defense, which right Borrower expressly retains. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at Borrower’s expense if, in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and Borrower that would make such separate representation advisable. Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify an Indemnified Party for damage or loss resulting from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Environmental Indemnity Borrower agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Indemnitees from and against all proceedings, claims, damages, penalties and costs (whether initiated or sought by Governmental Authorities or private parties), including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and remediation costs, whether incurred in connection with any judicial or administrative process or otherwise, arising directly or indirectly from any of the following:
(i) Any breach of any representation or warranty of Borrower in Section 5.05.
(ii) Any failure by Borrower to perform any of its obligations under Section 6.12.
(iii) The existence or alleged existence of any Prohibited Activity or Condition.
(iv) The presence or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on or under the Mortgaged Property or in any of the Improvements.
(v) The actual or alleged violation of any Hazardous Materials Law.
Environmental Investigation (a) Heritage shall engage an environmental consultant acceptable to Acquiror to conduct a preliminary ("Phase I") environmental assessment of each of the parcels of real estate used in the operation of the businesses of Heritage and any Heritage Subsidiary and any other real estate owned by Heritage or a Heritage Subsidiary (other than single family residences). The fees and expenses of the consultant with respect to the Phase I assessments shall be shared equally by Acquiror and Heritage. The consultant shall complete and deliver the Phase I assessments not later than 60 days after the date of this Agreement. If any environmental conditions are found, suspected, or would tend to be indicated by the report of the consultant which may be contrary to the representations and warranties of Heritage set forth herein without regard to any exceptions that may be contained in Heritage's Schedules, then the parties shall obtain from one or more mutually acceptable consultants or contractors, as appropriate, an estimate of the cost of any further environmental investigation, sampling, analysis, remediation or other follow-up work that may be necessary to address those conditions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
(b) Upon receipt of the estimate of the costs of all follow-up work to the Phase I assessments or any subsequent investigation phases that may be conducted, the parties shall attempt to agree upon a course of action for further investigation and remediation of any environmental condition suspected, found to exist, or that would tend to be indicated by the report of the consultant. All post-Phase I investigations or assessments (the cost of which shall be paid by Heritage), all work plans for any post-Phase I assessments or remediation, and any removal or remediation actions that may be performed, shall be mutually satisfactory to Acquiror and Heritage. If such work plans or removal or remediation actions would cost more than $3,000,000 (individually or in the aggregate on a tax affected basis) to complete, Acquiror and Heritage shall discuss a mutually acceptable modification of this Agreement. Acquiror and Heritage shall cooperate in the review, approval and implementation of all work plans.
(c) If the parties are unable to agree upon a course of action for further investigation and remediation of an environmental condition or issue raised by an environmental assessment and/or a mutually acceptable modification to this Agreement, and the condition or issue is not one for which it can be determined to a reasonable degree of certainty that the risk and expense to which the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries would be subject as owner of the property involved can be quantified, in good faith, and limited to an amount less than $3,000,000 (on a tax affected basis), then Acquiror may terminate this Agreement by the earlier to occur of (i) 120 days after the receipt of the Phase I assessments, or (ii) the receipt of all consents and approvals of government regulatory authorities as legally required to consummate the Merger and the expiration of all statutory waiting periods.

(B) Members shall not be indemnified for legal costs arising from the actions or omissions of members acting in their capacity as private citizens. For the purpose of Clause 29.1 (A) a Member: shall be deemed to have been "Finally Acquitted", where charges are withdrawn or where he is discharged following a preliminary inquiry; and shall be deemed not to have been "Finally Acquitted" where the member is given an absolute or conditional discharge or where, if as a result of charges laid he is subsequently found guilty of, or pleads guilty to, other charges arising out of the same incident or incidents.
29.2 When a member is a defendant in a civil action for damages because of acts done in the course of his employment or duties he shall be indemnified for the necessary and reasonable legal costs incurred in the defence of such an action in the following circumstances only:
(i) where the Board is not joined in the action as a party pursuant to s. 50 of the Police Services Act, and the Board does not defend the action on behalf of itself and the member as joint tortfeasors at the Board's sole expense;
(ii) where the Board is joined as a party or elects to defend the action, but the Solicitor retained on behalf of the Board and the member is of the view that it would be improper for him to act for both the Board and the member in that action.
29.3 Where during an inquest under the Coroner's Act a member's conduct is called into question because of acts done in the performance of his duties, the member shall be indemnified for any necessary and reasonable legal costs directly arising from the protection of the member's interest at such inquiry, but only if:
(i) the Chief of Police or the Board does not provide counsel to represent the York Regional Police, at the Board's expense; or
(ii) in the opinion of counsel retained by the Chief of Police or the Board to represent the York Regional Police, it would be improper for him to represent the member and the Chief and/or the Board before that inquiry.

As soon as practicable, the Chief shall bring his action and his recommendation to the attention of the Board who may approve or alter the terms of retention of such legal counsel or the Chief's recommendation in respect thereof. Neither the Board nor the Chief shall provide legal counsel after the completion of the investigation or the laying of information(s), as Article 29 of the Civilian Collective Agreement is intended to govern such matters.
29.7 All sections under Article 29 (Legal Indemnification) are subject to review and re- negotiation by either the Board or the Association when the Regulations of the Police Services Act are proclaimed in force. If changes cannot be negotiated then either party reserves the right to submit the terms of this Article to arbitration.
