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.
Environmental Information Seller shall, promptly upon written request from PacifiCorp, provide PacifiCorp with all data reasonably requested by PacifiCorp relating to environmental information under the Required Facility Documents. Seller shall further provide PacifiCorp with information relating to environmental impact mitigation measures it is taking in connection with the Facility's construction or operation that are required by any Governmental Authority.

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.
