8.1 Purchaser shall have a period of forty-five (45) calendar days

against any and all loss or damage Seller may incur and any and all liens that
may arise as a result of Purchaser's activities or the activities of Purchaser's
agents, representatives or designees on the Property and against any and all
claims for death or injury to persons or properties arising out of or connected
with Purchaser's (or its agents, representatives or designees) going upon the
Property pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph or otherwise, and against
