Except for the environmental investigations described in Section 6.9 below, Buyer has undertaken such investigation as it has deemed necessary to enable it to make an informed and intelligent decision with respect to this Agreement, and Buyer acknowledges that the Seller Parties and the Company Group have allowed Buyer such access as has been reasonably requested by Buyer to the personnel, properties, premises and records of the Company Group for this purpose. To the extent expressly permitted hereafter under this Agreement, Buyer will undertake such further investigation as it deems necessary. Buyer acknowledges that in entering this Agreement, in acquiring the Shares and in consummating the other transactions contemplated herein, Buyer has relied solely upon its own investigation and analysis and, to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and that none of the Seller Parties and the Company Group (and any of their respective agents, officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or representatives) has made any representation or warranty as to the Seller Parties, the Company Group, the Shares, this Agreement or the business of the Company Group except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, and Buyer agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, that, except as expressly provided for herein or pursuant to the express provisions hereof, none of the Seller Parties (and any of their respective agents, officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or representatives) shall have any liability to Buyer (or any of its agents, officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or representatives) on any basis based upon any information made available or statements made to Buyer (or any of its agents, officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or representatives).
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.
Investigation of Breach If the Seller (i) has knowledge of a breach of a representation or warranty made in Section 3.4, (ii) receives notice from the Depositor, the Trust, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee of a breach of a representation or warranty made in Section 3.4, (iii) receives a written request to repurchase a Receivable due to an alleged breach of a representation and warranty in Section 3.4 from the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, any Verified Note Owner or any Noteholder (which repurchase request shall provide sufficient detail so as to allow the Seller to reasonably investigate the alleged breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.4; provided, that with respect to a repurchase request from a Noteholder or a Verified Note Owner, such repurchase request shall initially be provided to the Indenture Trustee) for a Receivable (each, a “Repurchase Request”) or (iv) receives a final report from the Asset Representations Reviewer that indicates that the Asset Representations Reviewer has determined that a test procedure under the Asset Representations Review Agreement has not been satisfied with respect to a representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.4 for a Receivable, then, in each case, the Seller will investigate the Receivable to confirm the breach and determine if the breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser, the Issuer or the Noteholders in any Receivable. None of the Servicer, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Administrator will have an obligation to investigate whether a breach of any representation or warranty has occurred or whether any Receivable is required to be repurchased under this Section 3.5.

Environmental Investigation (a) Acquiror may, in its discretion, within thirty (30) Business Days of the date of this Agreement, require the Company to order, at Acquiror’s expense, a Phase I environmental site assessment to be delivered only to Acquiror for each parcel of real property in which the Company or an Acquired Subsidiary holds an interest or formerly held an interest (each a “Phase I Report”), conducted by an independent professional consultant reasonably acceptable to Acquiror to determine if any real property in which the Company or any Acquired Subsidiary holds any interest or formerly held an interest contains or gives evidence of any adverse environmental condition or any violations of Environmental Laws on any such property. If a Phase I Report discloses any violations or adverse environmental conditions, or reports a reasonable suspicion thereof, then Acquiror may promptly obtain, at the expense of the Company and Acquiror, shared equally, a Phase II 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 violations or conditions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations (each a “Phase II Report,” and collectively referred to with the associated Phase I Report, an “Environmental Report”).
