Remedies for Environmental Defects (a) If any Environmental Defect described in a notice delivered in accordance with Section 4.03 is not cured on or before the Closing, and Seller has not elected to exclude the affected Assets from this sale or Buyer and Seller have not agreed for Seller to indemnify Buyer for the Environmental Defect, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Environmental Defect Value of such Environmental Defect as agreed by the Parties.
(b) If Buyer and Seller have not agreed as to the validity of any asserted Environmental Defect, or if the Parties have not agreed on the Environmental Defect Value therefor, and if Seller shall not have elected to exclude the affected Assets from this sale pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(ii), then either Party shall have the right to elect to have the validity of the asserted Environmental Defect, and/or the Environmental Defect Value for such Environmental Defect, determined by an Independent Expert pursuant to Section 16.03. If the validity of any such asserted Environmental Defect or the amount of any such Environmental Defect Value is not determined by the Closing, the Asset affected by such disputed Environmental Defect shall be excluded from the Closing and the Purchase Price paid at the Closing shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of that Asset. Upon resolution of such dispute, the Allocated Value of that Asset less the Environmental Defect Value, if any, found to be attributable to such Environmental Defect shall, subject to this Section 4.04, be paid by Buyer to Seller and the Asset conveyed to Buyer, if that is part of the mutually agreed settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Buyer or Seller shall have the right to exclude an Asset from the sale if the Environmental Defect Value exceeds the Allocated Value of the Asset(s) affected thereby.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) if the Environmental Defect Value for a given individual Environmental Defect does not exceed $50,000, then no adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be made for such Environmental Defect; (ii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects and Environmental Defects does not exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then no adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made therefore and (iii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects and Environmental Defects does exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then the Purchase Price shall only be adjusted by the amount of such excess.
Environmental Conditions A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II environmental site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related Mortgagee; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action or closure letter was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than “A-” (or the equivalent) by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Fitch Ratings, Inc. and/or A.M. Best Company; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Mortgage Loan Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.
Environmental Condition Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 to the Information Certificate, (a) to each Loan Party’s knowledge, no properties or assets of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries have ever been used by a Loan Party, its Subsidiaries, or by previous owners or operators in the disposal of, or to produce, store, handle, treat, release, or transport, any Hazardous Materials, where such disposal, production, storage, handling, treatment, release or transport was in violation, in any material respect, of any applicable Environmental Law, (b) to each Loan Party’s knowledge, after due inquiry, no Loan Party’s nor any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets have ever been designated or identified in any manner pursuant to any environmental protection statute as a Hazardous Materials disposal site, (c) no Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries has received notice that a Lien arising under any Environmental Law has attached to any revenues or to any Real Property owned or operated by a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, and (d) no Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective facilities or operations is subject to any outstanding written order, consent decree, or settlement agreement with any Person relating to any Environmental Law or Environmental Liability that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.
Remedies for Contractor Breach Pertaining to contract-related issues, it is the responsibility of both CMHA and the contractor to communicate with each other in as clear and complete a manner as possible. If at any time during the term of this contract CMHA or the contractor is not satisfied with any issue, it is the responsibility of that party to deliver to the other party communication, in writing, fully detailing the issue and corrective action (please note that CMHA has the right to issue unilateral addendums to this contract, but the contractor does not have the same right). The other party shall, within 10 days, respond in writing to the other party (however, CMHA shall retain the right to, if conditions warrant, require the contractor to respond in a shorter period of time). Further, CMHA shall, at a minimum, employ the following steps in dealing with the contractor as to any performance issues:
20.16.1.1. If the contractor is in material breach of the contract, CMHA may promptly invoke the termination clause detailed within Section No. 3, form HUD-5370-C, General Conditions for Non-Construction Contracts, Section I—(With or without Maintenance Work), which is attached hereto, and terminate the contract for cause. Such termination must be delivered to the contractor in writing and shall fully detail all pertinent issues pertaining to the cause of and justification for the termination.
20.16.1.2. Prior to termination, CMHA may choose to warn
20.16.1.3. After termination, if the contractor does not agree with CMHA’s justification for the termination, the contractor shall have 10 days to dispute, in writing, such action; if he/she does not do so within the 10-day period, he/she shall have no recourse but to accept and agree with CMHA’s position on the issue. The written protest must detail all pertinent information pertaining to the dispute, including justification detailing CMHA’s alleged incorrect action(s).
20.16.1.4. The response to any protest received shall be conducted in accordance with Section No. 4.0 of this document.
20.16.1.5. It is CMHA’s policy to resolve all contractual issues informally and without litigation. Disputes will not be referred to HUD unless all administrative remedies have been exhausted. When appropriate, a mediator may be used to help resolve differences.
20.16.1.6. For contracts of $100,000 or less, the bidder/contractor may request to meet with the Procurement Officer.
20.16.1.7. All claims by a contractor relating to performance of a contract shall be submitted in writing to the Procurement Officer or designee for a written decision. The contractor may request a conference on the claim. The Procurement Officer’s decision shall inform the contractor of its appeal rights to the next higher level of authority in CMHA. Contractor claims shall be governed by the Changes clause in the form HUD-5370-C.
Remedies for Title Defects (a) With respect to each Title Defect that Seller does not cure on or before the Closing, except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.05, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Title Defect Value agreed upon in writing by Buyer and Seller or, if Buyer agrees, Seller shall indemnify Buyer pursuant to Section 14.04 against all costs which Buyer may incur in connection with such Title Defect. If any Title Defect is in the nature of an unobtained consent to assignment or other restriction on assignability, the provisions of Section 3.08 shall apply.
(b) Except for those affected Assets which Seller elects to exclude from this transaction pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(ii), if on or before Closing the Parties have not agreed upon the validity of any asserted Title Defect or have not agreed on the Title Defect Value attributable thereto, either Party shall have the right to elect to have the validity of such Title Defect and/or such Title Defect Value determined by an Independent Expert pursuant to Section 16.03; provided that if the validity of any asserted Title Defect, or the Title Defect Value attributable thereto, is not determined before Closing, the affected Asset shall be excluded from the sale and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of such affected Asset as set forth on Exhibit C. Upon resolution of such dispute, the Allocated Value of that Asset less the Title Defect Value, if any, found to be attributable to such Title Defect shall, subject to this Section 3.05, be paid by Buyer to Seller and the Asset conveyed to Buyer, if that is part of the mutually agreed settlement.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) if the value of a given individual Title Defect (or individual Title Benefit (as defined in Section 3.09(a)) does not exceed $50,000 then no adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be made for such Title Defect (or Title Benefit), (ii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects and Environmental Defects (as hereinafter defined) does not exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then no adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made therefor and (iii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects and Environmental Defects does exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then the Purchase Price shall only be adjusted by the amount of such excess.

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.
