Additional Conditions As a condition to any such assignment or subletting, whether or not Landlord’s consent is required, Landlord may require:
(i) that any assignee or subtenant agree, in writing at the time of such assignment or subletting, that if Landlord gives such party notice that Tenant is in default under this Lease, such party shall thereafter make all payments otherwise due Tenant directly to Landlord, which payments will be received by Landlord without any liability except to credit such payment against those due under the Lease, and any such third party shall agree to attorn to Landlord or its successors and assigns should this Lease be terminated for any reason; provided, however, in no event shall Landlord or its successors or assigns be obligated to accept such attornment; and

Neither Tenant nor any such proposed assignee or subtenant is required, however, to provide Landlord with any portion(s) of the such documents containing information of a proprietary nature which, in and of themselves, do not contain a reference to any Hazardous Materials or hazardous activities.
Responsibility for Environmental Contamination 5.20.1 Neither Party shall be liable to the other for any costs whatsoever resulting from the presence or release of any Environmental Hazard that either Party did not introduce to the affected Work Location. Both Parties shall defend and hold harmless the other, its officers, directors and employees from and against any losses, damages, claims, demands, suits, liabilities, fines, penalties and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that arise out of or result from (i) any Environmental Hazard that the Indemnifying Party, its contractors or agents introduce to the Work Locations or (ii) the presence or release of any Environmental Hazard for which the Indemnifying Party is responsible under Applicable Law.

Except for abatement activities undertaken by CLEC or equipment placement activities that result in the generation of asbestos-containing material, CLEC does not have any responsibility for managing, nor is it the owner of, nor does it have any liability for, or in connection with, any asbestos-containing material. Qwest agrees to immediately notify CLEC if Qwest undertakes any asbestos control or asbestos abatement activities that potentially could affect CLEC personnel, equipment or operations, including, but not limited to, contamination of equipment.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS A submitted appeal must;
ORIGINAL CONDITIONS A. All reinsurance under this Contract shall be subject to the same rates, terms, conditions, waivers and interpretations and to the same modifications and alterations as the Policy, subject to the terms and conditions of this Contract, and the Reinsurer shall be credited with its exact proportion of the Insured's premiums due to the Company under the Policy.
B. Nothing herein shall in any manner create any obligation or establish any right against the Reinsurer in favor of third parties or any persons not parties to this Contract except as provided with respect to the Insured in this Contract or in the Assumption of Liability Endorsement.
C. In the event of a Quota Share Reduction, as that term is defined under the Policy, each Subscribing Reinsurer's participation percentage in this Contract shall be increased in the proportion that 100% bears to the total Subscribing Reinsurer's participation after the Quota Share Reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, such participation percentage increase is necessary to account for the reduction provisions of the Reduction Under Quota Share Contract Article of the Policy. If applicable, the Remaining Aggregate Retention, as that term is defined under the Policy, would likewise be adjusted. Any termination of a Subscribing Reinsurer's participation in this Contract shall not require the consent of any other Subscribing Reinsurer. As respects each Subscribing Reinsurer still participating on this Contract following the Reinsurer Reduction Date, as that term is defined under the Policy, in no event shall its share of the aggregate limit following the Reinsurer Reduction Date be greater than its share of the aggregate limit prior to the Reinsurer Reduction Date, notwithstanding that its participation percentage may increase as a result thereof. As an example, where the aggregate limit is $300,000,000 with each of three Subscribing Reinsurers retaining a 33.33% share ($100,000,000 each), and one Subscribing Reinsurer's share is terminated, then the resulting aggregate limit becomes $200,000,000 with each of the two remaining Subscribing Reinsurers retaining a 50.00% share (i.e., 33.33% x 100%/66.67%). As respects each of the two remaining Subscribing Reinsurers, its share of the aggregate limit shall remain at $100,000,000.
