Retained Environmental Liabilities Clause Samples

The Retained Environmental Liabilities clause defines which environmental obligations and liabilities remain the responsibility of the seller after a transaction. Typically, this clause specifies that the seller will continue to be liable for any environmental contamination or regulatory violations that occurred prior to the closing date, even if discovered later. By clearly allocating responsibility for pre-existing environmental issues, this clause protects the buyer from unexpected cleanup costs or legal actions, ensuring that environmental risks are properly managed and assigned.
