Each report shall be addressed to Lender. A copy of each report and all supporting documents shall be promptly furnished to Lender.
Page 3

Borrower shall, in compliance with all Environmental Requirements, promptly undertake and complete (subject to force majeure) any and all investigations, testing, abatement, clean up, remediation, response or other corrective action necessary or recommended to: (i) remove, remediate, clean up or xxxxx any Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Material at or from the Property; (ii) correct any non-compliance with any Environmental Requirement by Borrower or at the Property; (iii) address any unsafe or hazardous condition at the Property resulting from or related to any Hazardous Material; or (iv) make an appropriate response to any threatened or pending Environmental Claim related to Borrower or the Property.

A copy of any such report or other document (and all supporting documents) shall be promptly furnished to Lender. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall provide to Lender, within thirty (30) days of Lender’s request, a bond, letter of credit or other financial assurance evidencing to Lender’s satisfaction that all necessary funds are readily available to pay the costs and expenses of the required actions and to discharge any liens established against the Property.
(e) Lender’s Rights. Subject to the rights of tenants under valid leases, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, without limitation of Lender’s rights under the other Loan Documents, and at Obligor’s sole risk and expense, to enter onto the Property and/or to take, or cause to be taken, such actions as Lender deems necessary or advisable to investigate, clean up, remediate or otherwise respond to, address or correct any of the issues addressed in this Agreement. Obligor shall reimburse Lender on demand for the costs of any such action. Lender agrees, however, that, except in the case of an emergency, Lender will take such action only after written notice to Obligor of the circumstances and the failure by Borrower, within a reasonable period of time following receipt of such notice, to commence or diligently pursue to completion the appropriate corrective action. Lender owes no duty of care to protect Obligor or any other Person against, or to inform Obligor or any other Person of, any Hazardous Material or other environmental condition affecting the Property.
Section 4 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnified Matters. Obligor hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, defend, release and hold each Indemnified Party harmless from and against, and reimburse each Indemnified Party on demand for, any and all losses, costs, liabilities (including strict liabilities), claims (including Environmental Claims), damages, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with enforcing this provision), penalties or fines of any kind whatsoever paid, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Party by any Person in connection with, arising out of or resulting in any way whatsoever from:

At any time, without demand or notice (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower), Lender may setoff the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral security for the Loan.
