Title Insurance and Surveys Due to the critical timeline requirements to close the transaction, PHI may order title searches on all PH Owned Real Property and PH Leased Real Property to be transferred to NPC pursuant to this Agreement. These title searches will be performed by a national title company approved by PHI. If PHI has established relations with such company, NPC will be entitled to the benefit of PHI’s preferred rates. If permissible under applicable law and the terms of any agreement with such company, the fees paid for the searches may be applied toward the title policy costs for title policies desired by NPC based upon these title searches In the event NPC or NPC’s lender requires environmental reports relating to the PH Owned Real Property, NPC shall first obtain PHI’s prior written consent and shall execute the Access and Confidentiality Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “E”, and shall retain a nationally recognized firm approved by PHI to perform such work. PH will not consent to any invasive environmental audit or review and the results of any permitted environmental audit or review will not affect NPC’s obligations hereunder. To the extent that NPC or NPC’s lender requires surveys of the Owned Real Property, NPC shall retain a nationally recognized firm approved by PHI to perform such work. The consultants referenced in this Section 1.7 will be retained solely by NPC, but PH shall have the right to obtain copies of any documents or reports that they prepare. As provided for in Sections 5 and 10.9, NPC shall reimburse PH at Closing (or at such other time as contemplated by those provisions) for all actual or estimated costs incurred by PH in obtaining title insurance, surveys and/or environmental reports on behalf of NPC. Notwithstanding the foregoing however, NPC will not be responsible for the payment or reimbursement of any costs relating to title insurance, surveys and/or environmental reports on any of the subject real estate unless such service is specifically requested by NPC, and request is given forty-five (45) days prior to the Closing.
Surveys Each Borrower shall submit the Ship owned by it regularly to all periodical or other surveys which may be required for classification purposes and, if so required by the Security Trustee provide the Security Trustee, with copies of all survey reports.

Lenders may participate in any such visit or inspection, at their own expense. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to any Obligor to make any inspection, nor to share any results of any inspection, appraisal or report with any Obligor. Obligors acknowledge that all inspections, appraisals and reports are prepared by Agent and Lenders for their purposes, and Obligors shall not be entitled to rely upon them.
(b) Reimburse Agent for all charges, costs and expenses of Agent in connection with (i) examinations of any Obligor’s books and records or any other financial or Collateral matters as Agent deems appropriate, up to three times per Loan Year; and (ii) appraisals of Inventory and Equipment up to one time per Loan Year; provided, however, that if an examination or appraisal is initiated during a Default or Event of Default, all charges, costs and expenses therefor shall be reimbursed by Borrowers without regard to such limits. Subject to and without limiting the foregoing, Obligors specifically agree to pay Agent’s then standard charges for each day that an employee of Agent or its Affiliates is engaged in any examination activities, and shall pay the standard charges of Agent’s internal appraisal group. (The current standard per diem charge for an employee of Agent or the third party currently utilized by Agent is $850 per day or part thereof.) This Section shall not be construed to limit Agent’s right to conduct examinations or to obtain appraisals at any time in its discretion, nor to use third parties for such purposes.
Title and Survey Matters 4.1 As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a standard owner's policy of title insurance issued by the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent ("TITLE POLICY"). The Title Policy shall insure marketable title to the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and exceptions whatsoever, save and except only for those easements, restrictions and other matters of record affecting title to the Property which are Permitted Exceptions (as hereinafter defined).
4.2 Purchaser shall have until the end of the Due Diligence Period (as hereinafter defined) in which to review the title commitment and as-built survey to be delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 5.1, and to obtain any modifications, endorsements or other revisions to either the title commitment or the survey required by Purchaser, at Purchaser's cost. If Purchaser is unable to obtain any modification, endorsement or other revision to the title commitment or survey required by Purchaser, or if any items remain on the title commitment or survey which are not acceptable to Purchaser ("UNPERMITTED EXCEPTIONS"), then on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall so notify Seller (an "OBJECTION NOTICE"). Seller has a period of ten (10) days after the date of the Objection Notice in which Seller, using good faith efforts, shall attempt to remove such Unpermitted Matters or remedy same in a manner satisfactory to Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion, or have the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent commit to insure against loss or damage that may be occasioned by such exceptions (in endorsements satisfactory to Purchaser). If Seller does not cure any Unpermitted Exceptions to Purchaser's satisfaction within such period, then Purchaser may either (a) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller of such termination not later than five (5) days following the end of the ten (10) day cure period, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money, and all interest earned thereon, shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further obligations or liabilities hereunder or (b) accept such Unpermitted Exceptions. Any item not specified in the Objection Notice or subsequently accepted by Purchaser shall be a "PERMITTED EXCEPTION". Seller shall be obligated to remove prior to Closing all mortgages and other liens or encumbrances of a definite or ascertainable monetary amount, and if Seller fails to do so, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement. At the Closing, and as a further condition of Purchaser's performance of its obligations hereunder, Seller shall cause the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent to deliver to Purchaser the Title Policy or a marked-up and signed commitment to deliver same.
Valuations After the Delivery Date, together with delivery of the financial statements described in Section 9.01(b) for each fiscal year, and at any other time within 15 days of a written request from the Facility Agent, an appraisal report of recent date (but in no event earlier than 90 days before the delivery of such reports) from an Approved Appraiser or such other independent firm of shipbrokers or shipvaluers nominated by the Borrower and approved by the Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the Required Lenders) or failing such nomination and approval, appointed by the Facility Agent (acting on such instructions) in its sole discretion (each such valuation and any other valuation obtained pursuant to this Section 9.01(c) shall be made without, unless reasonably required by the Facility Agent, physical inspection and on the basis of a sale for prompt delivery for cash at arm’s length on normal commercial terms as between a willing buyer and a willing seller without taking into account the benefit of any charterparty or other engagement concerning the Vessel), stating the then current fair market value of the Vessel. The appraisal obtained pursuant to the above provisions shall be treated as the fair market value of the Vessel for that period unless the Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the Required Lenders) notifies the Borrower within 15 days of the receipt of this appraisal that it is not satisfied that such appraisal appropriately reflects the fair market value of the Vessel, in which case the Facility Agent shall be entitled to request that the Borrower obtains a second valuation from an Approved Appraiser, such second valuation to be obtained within 15 days of the receipt of the request for the same. Where any such second valuation is so requested, the fair market value of the Vessel shall be determined on the basis of the average of the two appraisals so obtained. All such appraisals shall be conducted by, and made at the expense of, the Borrower (it being understood that the Facility Agent may and, at the request of the Lenders, shall, upon prior written notice to the Borrower (which notice shall identify the names of the relevant appraisal firms), obtain such appraisals and that the cost of all such appraisals will be for the account of the Borrower); provided that, unless an Event of Default shall then be continuing, in no event shall the Borrower be required to pay for appraisal reports from one or, if applicable, two appraisers on more than one occasion in any fiscal year of the Borrower, with the cost of any such reports in excess thereof to be paid by the Lenders on a pro rata basis;

Prior to the Effective Date, Seller has provided to Buyer a copy of an existing survey of each Property, and Buyer may, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, obtain an update of each survey (the “Surveys”).
