Periodic Review of Costs of Environmental Compliance In the ordinary course of its business, the Company conducts a periodic review of the effect of Environmental Laws on the business, operations and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review and the amount of its established reserves, the Company has reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.

The release and indemnity provisions of this Section 4.09 shall survive termination or Closing of this Agreement notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided for in this Agreement. (b) Unless otherwise required by applicable Laws, Buyer shall treat any matters revealed by Buyer’s Environmental Review and any environmental review provided by Seller to Buyer, including any analyses, compilations, studies, documents, reports, or data prepared or generated from such review, but excluding any public information (the “Environmental Information”), as confidential, and, except as provided below, Buyer shall not disclose any Environmental Information to any Governmental Authority, or, prior to Closing to any other third party without the prior written consent of Seller. Buyer may use the Environmental Information prior to Closing only in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Environmental Information shall be disclosed by Buyer to only those persons who need to know the Environmental Information for purposes of evaluating the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and who agree to be bound by the terms of this Section 4.09. If Buyer or any third party to whom Buyer has provided any Environmental Information is requested, compelled, or required to disclose any of the Environmental Information prior to Closing, Buyer shall provide Seller with prompt notice sufficiently prior to any such disclosure so as to allow Seller to file for any protective order, or seek any other remedy, as it deems appropriate under the circumstances. If this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing, upon Seller’s request Buyer shall deliver the Environmental Information, and all copies thereof and works based thereon, to Seller, which Environmental Information shall become the sole property of Seller. Upon request Buyer shall provide copies of the Environmental Information to Seller without charge. The terms and provisions of this Section 4.09(b) shall survive any termination of this Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary.
