Environmental Investigation Sample Clauses

The Environmental Investigation clause establishes the right and process for a party, typically a buyer or tenant, to assess a property for environmental contamination or hazards before completing a transaction. This clause usually allows for site inspections, testing of soil or groundwater, and review of environmental records within a specified timeframe, sometimes requiring the party to restore the property after testing. Its core function is to identify potential environmental liabilities early, enabling informed decision-making and risk allocation between the parties.

Purchaser shall obtain such report(s) within thirty (30) days following the date of full execution of this Agreement and shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such report(s) to terminate this Agreement if the report(s) reveals a condition affecting the property which is unacceptable to the Purchaser in the Purchaser's sole discretion.

Environmental Investigation. (a) Guaranty and its consultants, agents and Representatives shall have the right, upon execution of a mutually agreeable site access agreement, to enter the Company Real Property (at Guaranty’s sole cost and expense), but not the obligation or responsibility, to inspect any Company Real Property, including conducting asbestos surveys and sampling, environmental assessments and investigation, and other non-invasive or non-destructive environmental surveys and analyses (“Environmental Inspections”) on or prior to 45 days after the date of this Agreement, but such 45-day period shall be extended to 60 days with respect to any property for which the Company had not delivered or made available the Environmental Information prior to the date of this Agreement. If, as a result of any such Environmental Inspection, further investigation (a “Secondary Investigation”) including test borings, soil, water, asbestos or other sampling, is deemed desirable by Guaranty, Guaranty shall: (i) notify the Company of any Company Real Property for which it seeks to conduct such a Secondary Investigation and the reasons for such Secondary Investigation; (ii) submit a work plan to the Company for such Secondary Investigation, for which Guaranty agrees to afford the Company the ability to comment on and Guaranty agrees to reasonably consider all such comments (and negotiate in good faith any such comments); and (iii) conclude such Secondary Investigation, on or prior to 60 days after the date of receipt of the Company’s comments. Guaranty shall give reasonable notice to the Company of such Environmental Inspections and Secondary Investigations, and the Company may place reasonable restrictions on the time and place at which such Environmental Inspections and Secondary Investigations may be carried out.

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 c...
Environmental Investigation. (a) If any Phase I Report indicates the presence of any hazardous substance with respect to any Owned Real Estate, and such presence is a condition that requires remediation pursuant to appropriate governmental standards, then, at Purchaser's request made in writing to Seller within ten (10) days after the date of this Agreement, and at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, Seller shall arrange to cause a consultant approved by both Seller and Purchaser to conduct a Phase II environmental audit as to such hazardous substance and deliver to Seller and Purchaser the results of such audit within forty-five days after the request by Purchaser. If the Phase II audit report confirms that such presence requires remediation pursuant to appropriate governmental standards and if such presence, if not remediated, would materially adversely affect the business of the Branch situated upon the Owned Real Estate and Purchaser requests that Seller take remedial action with respect thereto, then Purchaser shall so notify Seller in writing promptly after receipt of the Phase II environmental audit report, whereupon Seller shall have the right to (i) terminate this Agreement as it relates to the Assets and Liabilities of the affected Branch, (ii) undertake remedial action as to such presence at its sole cost and expense so that no material continuing violation of any environmental law exists (provided, however, that the timing of any such remediation shall be coordinated with Purchaser to minimize any resulting business interruption), or (iii) agree to indemnify Purchaser for all actual costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser to remediate the Owned Real Estate as to such presence so that no material continuing violation of any environmental law exists. (b) If Purchaser fails to request a Phase II environmental audit or to exercise its right to make a request that Seller remediate any Owned Real Estate in each case as and when required above, then Purchaser shall be bound to the terms of this Agreement without a right of termination except as provided in Article XI and without a further right to request or to require any Seller remediation or indemnification. Any termination by Seller under this Article X shall neither create nor result in any liability of the Seller to the Purchaser.

TCBX will notify Keystone prior to any physical inspections of the Property, and Keystone may place reasonable restrictions on the time of such inspections. If, as a result of any such Environmental Inspection, further investigation (“Secondary Investigation”) including, test borings, soil, water and other sampling is deemed desirable by TCBX, TCBX will (i) notify Keystone of any Property for which it intends to conduct such a Secondary Investigation and the reasons for such Secondary Investigation, and (ii) commence such Secondary Investigation, on or prior to the date that is seventy-five (75) days after the date of this Agreement.

Environmental Investigation. The Borrowers or any of PLC’s Subsidiaries shall be the subject of any proceedings or investigation of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, or any violation of any federal, state or local environmental, health or safety law or regulation, which, in either case, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Environmental Investigation. (a) Landmark may, in its reasonable discretion, within forty-five (45) days of the Agreement Date, request the Bank to provide at Landmark’s expense a Phase 1 environmental site assessment (the “Phase 1 Report”) conducted by an independent professional consultant reasonably acceptable to Landmark to determine if any Bank Real Estate contains or gives evidence that any violations of Environmental Laws have occurred on any such property. If the Phase 1 Report discloses any material adverse environmental conditions, or reports a reasonable suspicion thereof, then the Bank shall promptly obtain, at the Bank’s expense, a Phase 2 environmental report with respect to any affected property, which report shall contain an estimate of the cost of any remediation or other follow-up work that may be necessary to address those conditions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations (the “Phase 2 Report,” and collectively referred to with the Phase 1 Report, as the “Environmental Report”). Landmark shall have no duty to act for the benefit of the Bank or any other Person upon any information produced by the Environmental Report, but shall provide such information to the Bank as soon as practicable after such information becomes available to Landmark. (b) Upon receipt of the estimate of the costs of all follow-up work to the Environmental Report, Landmark and the Bank shall attempt to agree upon a course of action for remediation of any environmental condition suspected, found to exist, or that would tend to be indicated by the Environmental Report. The estimated total cost for completing all necessary work plans or removal or remediation actions is referred to collectively as the “Remediation Cost.” If the Remediation Cost exceeds $50,000, Landmark may, at its sole option, terminate this Agreement. If the Remediation Cost is less than $50,000, such cost shall be subtracted from the aggregate value of the Merger Consideration.
