Latent Defects Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no acceptance, or deemed acceptance, by City pursuant to this Section shall be applicable with respect to any Latent Defects. An acceptance, or deemed acceptance, by City pursuant to this Section shall not mean that City has accepted, or the other party has been relieved of, responsibility for: (i) compliance with the Laws; (ii) the proper application of construction means or methods; or (iii) correcting any portion of the Project if it later is determined that any portion of the Project is inconsistent with the Final Documents and Drawings.
Correction of Defects 35.1 The Engineer shall give notice to the Contractor of any Defects before the end of the Defects Liability Period, which begins at Completion and is defined in the Contract Data. The Defects Liability Period shall be extended for as long as Defects remain to be corrected.
35.2 Every time notice of a Defect is given, the Contractor shall correct the notified Defect within the length of time specified by the Engineer’s notice.
REMEDY OF DEFECTS (a) The BUILDER shall remedy, at its expense, any defects, against which the VESSEL is guaranteed under this Article, by making all necessary repairs or replacements at the SHIPYARD or elsewhere as provided for in (b) hereinbelow. In such case, the VESSEL shall be taken at the BUYER's cost and responsibility to the place selected, ready in all respects for such repairs or replacements and in any event, the BUILDER shall not be responsible for towage, dockage, wharfage, port charges and anything else incurred for the BUYER's getting and keeping the VESSEL ready for such repairing or replacing.
(b) However, if it is impractical (which shall include, but not be limited to, an emergency) to bring the VESSEL to the SHIPYARD, the BUYER may cause the necessary repairs or replacements to be made elsewhere which is deemed by the BUYER with the consent of the BUILDER which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to be suitable for the purpose, provided that, in such event, the BUILDER may forward or supply replacement parts or materials under the terms described in (c) hereinbelow, unless forwarding or supplying thereof under the terms described in (c) hereinbelow would impair or delay the operation or working schedule of the VESSEL. In the event that the BUYER proposes to cause the necessary repairs or replacements to be made to the VESSEL at any shipyard or works other than the SHIPYARD, the BUYER shall first (but in all events as soon as reasonably possible) give the BUILDER notice by email or facsimile of the time and place such repairs will be made, and if the VESSEL is not thereby delayed, or her operation or working schedule is not thereby impaired, the BUILDER shall have the right to verify by its own representative(s) the nature and extent of the defects complained of. The BUILDER shall, in such case, promptly advise the BUYER by email or facsimile, after such examination has been completed, of its acceptance or rejection of the defects as ones that are covered by the guarantee herein provided. Upon the BUILDER's acceptance of the defects as justifying remedy under this Article, or upon award of the arbitration so determining, the BUILDER shall compensate the BUYER an amount equal to the reasonable cost of making the same repairs or replacements at the SHIPYARD.
(c) In the event that it is necessary for the BUILDER to forward a replacement for a defective part under this guarantee, replacement parts shall be shipped to the BUYER under the C.I.F terms to the BUYER's nominated port. The BUILDER reserves the option to retrieve, at the BUILDER's cost, any of the replaced equipment/parts in case defects are remedied in accordance with the provisions in this Article.
(d) Any dispute under this Article shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII hereof.
Title Defects 9.1 Purchaser shall have until April 21, 1999 in which to examine the Commitment and the Surveys. If Purchaser finds title to be defective, Purchaser shall, no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 21, 1999, notify Seller in writing, specifying the title defect(s). If Purchaser fails to give Seller written notice of any title defect(s) before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 21, 1999, the defects shown in the Commitment or the Surveys shall be deemed to be waived as title objections to closing this transaction.
9.2 If Purchaser has given Seller timely written notice of defect(s) and the defect(s) render the title other than as represented in this Agreement or if any new defects appear from the date of the Commitment through the Closing Date, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause only those defects recorded after October 7, 1997 to be cured by the Closing Date. Seller agrees to remove, by payment, bonding or otherwise, any such lien (other than environmental liens) against the Property capable of removal by the payment of money or bonding. Seller shall not be obligated to (but may, in its sole and absolute discretion) cure any other defect or to buyout or settle any other claim or lien against the Property. At Seller's option, the Closing Date may be extended for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days for purposes of eliminating such title defects. If such additional time is reasonably required by Seller to cure such title defects, Seller's failure to extend the Closing Date shall be commercially unreasonable.
9.3 If Seller does not eliminate such defects as of the Closing Date, as the same may be extended under the preceding sentence, or if any new "title defects" appear between the date of the Commitment through the Closing Date which Seller does not eliminate as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option to:
9.3.1 Close and accept the title "as is," without reduction in the Purchase Price and without claim against Seller for such title defects (except for any lien that Seller is required to cure pursuant to Section 9.2 that can be removed by the payment of money or bonding, for which credit shall be given Purchaser at the Closing unless Seller pays the same at the Closing) (and in such event, the Closing shall take place on the Closing Date); or
9.3.2 Cancel this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent, subject to the provisions of Section 11.3, shall return the Deposit, together with all interest earned thereon, to Purchaser, and both parties shall be released from all further obligations under this Agreement, except for those which expressly survive such termination, unless such title defects were caused by Seller's willful act or willful omission, in which event Seller shall remain liable to Purchaser for damages caused by such title defects.
Cost of remedying Defects Any repair or rectification undertaken in accordance with the provisions of Clause 17.2, including any additional testing, shall be carried out by the Contractor at its own risk and cost, to the extent that such rectification or repair is attributable to:
(a) the design of the Project;
(b) Plant, Materials or workmanship not being in accordance with this Agreement and the Specifications and Standards;
(c) improper maintenance during construction of the Project Highway by the Contractor; and/ or
(d) failure by the Contractor to comply with any other obligation under this Agreement.
Environmental Defects If Buyer determines that with respect to the Asset there exists an Environmental Condition (other than with respect to asbestos, asbestos containing materials, or NORM, and excluding any matter set forth on Schedule 6.10) (in each case, an “Environmental Defect”), then on or prior to the Defect Claim Date, Buyer may give Seller a written notice of such Environmental Defect that sets forth the information required by this Section 3.17 (an “Environmental Defect Notice”). For all purposes of this Agreement and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any Environmental Defect that Buyer fails to timely and properly assert as an Environmental Defect by an Environmental Defect Notice received by Seller on or before the Defect Claim Date. To be effective, an Environmental Defect Notice must set forth (a) a clear description of the matter constituting the alleged Environmental Defect, (b) a description of each Asset (or portion thereof) affected by the alleged Environmental Defect, (c) the estimated proportionate share attributable to the Assets of the estimated Lowest Cost Response to eliminate the alleged Environmental Defect (the “Environmental Defect Amount”), and (d) supporting documents and reasonably necessary for Seller to verify the existence of the alleged Environmental Defect and the Environmental Defect Amount. Buyer shall furnish Seller, on or before the end of each calendar week prior to the Defect Claim Date, Environmental Defect Notices with respect to any Environmental Defects that any of Buyer’s or any of its Affiliate’s employees, representatives, attorneys, or other environmental personnel or contractors discover or become aware of during the preceding calendar week, which notice may be preliminary in nature and supplemented prior to the Defect Claim Date; provided that notwithstanding this sentence, any Environmental Defect Notice shall be deemed timely if received by Seller prior to the Defect Claim Date.
Amendments to Clarify and Correct Errors and Defects The parties may amend this Agreement to clarify an ambiguity, correct an error or correct or supplement any term of this Agreement that may be defective or inconsistent with the other terms of this Agreement, in each case, without the consent of the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or any other Person. The parties may amend any term or provision of this Agreement from time to time for the purpose of conforming the terms of this Agreement to the description thereof in the Prospectus, without the consent of Noteholders, the Certificateholders or any other Person.
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.
Defects a. The Customer shall inspect the Goods upon delivery and will, within 48 hours, notify the Company of any defects, short deliveries or any failure to fulfill any quotation or order.
b. The Customer will, within a reasonable time following delivery, grant the Company access to the Goods in order to inspect for any alleged defects.
c. Should the Customer fail to notify the Company within the specified period then the Goods shall be deemed to be in compliance with the order and free from any defect whatsoever.
