finance such Borrowing Base Property, to the Loan Parties' knowledge no part of
any of the Borrowing Base Properties is within a flood plain and none of the
improvements thereon create encroachments over, across or upon any of the
Borrowing Base Properties' boundary lines, rights of way or easements, and no
building or other improvements on adjoining land create such an encroachment
which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All public
roads and streets necessary for service of and access to each of the Borrowing
Base Properties for the current and contemplated uses thereof have been
completed and are serviceable and are physically and legally open for use by the
public. To the Loan Parties' knowledge after due inquiry, any septic system
located at any of the Borrowing Base Properties is in good and safe condition
