Obligors shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent a copy of each report pertaining to the Property or to any Obligor prepared by or on behalf of any Obligor pursuant to any Environmental Requirement. Obligors shall immediately promptly advise Administrative Agent in writing of any Environmental Claim or of the discovery of any Hazardous Material on the Property as soon as any Obligor first obtains knowledge thereof, including a description of the nature and extent of the Environmental Claim and/or Hazardous Material and all relevant circumstances, to the extent such information is available at that time. Obligor shall deliver, as reasonably practicable after the initial notice, a full and complete description of the nature and extent of the Environmental Claim and/or Hazardous Material and all relevant circumstances.
5. Remedial Actions.
(a) Except as permitted under Section 3 above, if any Hazardous Material is discovered on the Property at any time and regardless of the cause, Obligors shall promptly at Obligors’ sole risk and expense and solely under the names of Obligors or any of them: (i) remove, treat, and dispose of the Hazardous Material in compliance with all applicable Environmental Requirements, or if such removal is prohibited by any Environmental Requirement, take whatever action as is required by any Environmental Requirement; and (ii) take such other action as is necessary to have the full use and benefit of the Property as contemplated by the Loan Documents. Obligors at their sole expense shall provide Administrative Agent with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the actions taken as required in this clause (a). Obligors shall provide to Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days of Administrative Agent’s request a bond, letter of credit or other financial assurance evidencing to Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction that all necessary funds are readily available to pay the costs and expenses of the actions required by this clause (a) and to discharge any assessments or liens established against the Property as a result of the presence of the Hazardous Material on the Property.
(b) All remedial actions shall be conducted (i) in a diligent and timely fashion by licensed contractors acting under the supervision of a consultant or consulting environmental engineer, and (ii) in accordance with all Environmental Requirements and all other applicable governmental requirements. The selection of the contractors and consultant or consulting environmental engineer for the remedial actions, the contracts entered into with such parties, any disclosures to or agreements with any public or private agencies or parties relating to the remedial actions and any written plan for the remedial actions (and any changes thereto) shall each, at the option of Administrative Agent, be subject to the prior written approval of Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Within fifteen (15) business days after completion of such remedial actions, Obligors shall obtain and deliver to Administrative Agent an Environmental Assessment of the Property made after such completion which shall confirm to Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction that all
ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNITY AGREEMENT – Page 6
required remedial action as stated above has been taken and successfully completed and that there is no evidence or suspicion of any contamination or risk of contamination on the Property or any adjacent property or of violation of any Environmental Requirement with respect to any such Hazardous Material.
(c) After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, Administrative Agent may, but shall never be obligated to, remove or cause the removal of any Hazardous Material from the Property (or if removal is prohibited by any Environmental Requirement, take or cause the taking of such other action as is required by any Environmental Requirement) if Obligors fail to promptly commence such remedial actions following discovery and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent (without limitation of Administrative Agent’s rights to declare a Default under any of the Loan Documents and to exercise all rights and remedies available by reason thereof). Administrative Agent and its designees are hereby granted access to the Property at any time or times, upon reasonable notice (which may be written or oral), and a license which is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to remove or cause such removal or to take or cause the taking of any such other action.
6. Indemnity. Obligors hereby agree to protect, indemnify, defend and hold Indemnified Parties and each of them harmless from and against, and, if and to the extent paid, to reimburse them on demand for, any and all Environmental Damages. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH (AND/OR ANY OTHER) INDEMNIFIED PARTY. HOWEVER, SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO A PARTICULAR INDEMNIFIED PARTY TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SUBJECT OF THE INDEMNIFICATION IS CAUSED BY OR ARISES OUT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY. Upon demand by any Indemnified Party, Obligors shall diligently defend any Environmental Claim which affects the Property or which is made or commenced against such Indemnified Party, whether alone or together with Obligors or any other person, all at Obligors’ own cost and expense and by counsel to be approved by such Indemnified Party in the exercise of its reasonable judgment. In the alternative, at any time any Indemnified Party may elect to conduct its own defense through counsel selected by such Indemnified Party and at the cost and expense of Obligors; provided that, unless conflicts between Indemnified Parties prevent their representation by a single counsel, Obligors shall not be required to pay for more than one counsel for such Indemnified Parties.
7. Binding Obligations; Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall be binding upon Obligors and their successors, assigns and legal representatives and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnified Parties and each of them; provided, however, that Obligors may not assign this Agreement, or assign or delegate any of their rights or obligations under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent in each instance. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall not terminate on the Cut-Off Date or upon the release, foreclosure or other termination of the Deed of Trust, but will survive the Cut-Off Date, the
ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNITY AGREEMENT – Page 7
payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust, foreclosure of the Deed of Trust or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, the release or termination of the Deed of Trust and any and all of the other Loan Documents, any investigation by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party, any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, and any other event whatsoever. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Obligors to indemnify Indemnified Parties under Section 6 after the Cut-Off Date shall be presumed, unless shown by a preponderance of evidence to the contrary.
8. Environmental Assessments. If any Indemnified Party shall ever have reason to believe that any Hazardous Material affects the Property, or if any Environmental Claim is made or threatened, or if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or upon the occurrence of the Cut-Off Date if requested by any Indemnified Party, Obligors shall at their expense provide to such Indemnified Party from time to time, in each case within thirty (30) days after request by such Indemnified Party, an Environmental Assessment made after the date of such request. Obligors will cooperate with each consulting firm making any such Environmental Assessment and will supply to the consulting firm, from time to time and promptly on request, all information available to Obligors to facilitate the completion of the Environmental Assessment. If Obligors fail to furnish any Indemnified Party within ten (10) business days after such Indemnified Party’s request with a copy of an agreement with an acceptable environmental consulting firm to provide such Environmental Assessment, or if Obligors fail to furnish to any Indemnified Party such Environmental Assessment within thirty (30) days after request by such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party may cause any such Environmental Assessment to be made at Obligors’ expense and risk. Indemnified Parties and their designees are hereby granted access to the Property at any time or times, upon reasonable notice (which may be written or oral), and a license which is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to make or cause to be made such Environmental Assessments. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Indemnified Party in connection with any Environmental Assessment conducted in accordance with this Section 8 shall be paid by Obligors. Indemnified Parties shall be under no duty to make any Environmental Assessment of the Property, and in no event shall any such Environmental Assessment by any Indemnified Party be or give rise to a representation that any Hazardous Material is or is not present on the Property, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any Environmental Requirement, nor shall Obligors or any other person be entitled to rely on any Environmental Assessment made by or at the request of any Indemnified Party. Indemnified Parties owe no duty of care to protect Obligors or any other person against, or to inform them of, any Hazardous Material or other adverse condition affecting the Property.
9. Information. The results of all investigations conducted and/or Environmental Assessments prepared by or for any Indemnified Party shall be and at all times remain the property of the Indemnified Party and under no circumstances shall any Indemnified Party have any obligation whatsoever to disclose or otherwise make available to Obligors or any other party such results or any other information obtained by any Indemnified Party in connection with such investigations and reports. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Indemnified Parties hereby reserve the right, and Obligors hereby expressly authorize any Indemnified Party, to make available to any party (including any governmental agency or authority and any prospective bidder at any foreclosure sale of the Property) any and all Environmental Assessments that any Indemnified Party may have with respect to the Property. Obligors consent to Indemnified Parties notifying
ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNITY AGREEMENT – Page 8
any party (either as part of a notice of sale or otherwise) of the availability of any or all of the Environmental Assessments and the information contained therein. Obligors acknowledge that Indemnified Parties cannot control or otherwise assure the truthfulness or accuracy of the Environmental Assessments, and further acknowledge that the release of the Environmental Assessments, or any information contained therein, to prospective bidders at any foreclosure sale of the Property may have a material and adverse effect upon the amount that a party may bid at such sale. Obligors agree that Indemnified Parties shall have no liability whatsoever as a result of delivering any or all of the Environmental Assessments or any information contained therein to any third party, and Obligors hereby release and forever discharge Indemnified Parties from any and all claims, damages, or causes of action, arising out of, connected with or incidental to the Environmental Assessments or the delivery thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Indemnified Party brings any claim against Obligors as a result of an investigation or Environmental Assessment, such Indemnified Party shall provide Obligors with such investigation or Environmental Assessment in connection with the claim.
10. Cross-Default with Loan Documents. Any Default under this Agreement shall constitute a Default under the Loan Documents. In addition, any Default under any of the Loan Documents shall constitute a Default hereunder.
11. Payable on Demand; Remedies. Any amounts to be paid under this Agreement by Obligors (or any of them) from time to time shall be payable by Obligors within ten (10) days after demand by Administrative Agent or any other Indemnified Party. In addition to any other rights or remedies Administrative Agent may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity, upon the occurrence of a Default under this Agreement, Administrative Agent may do or cause to be done whatever is necessary to cause the Property to comply with all Environmental Requirements, and the cost thereof shall become immediately due and payable upon demand by Administrative Agent, and if not paid when due shall accrue interest at the Default Rate until paid.
12. Cumulative Rights. The liability of Obligors or any other person under this Agreement shall not be limited or impaired in any way by any provision in the Loan Documents or applicable law limiting Obligors’ or such other person’s liability or Administrative Agent’s recourse or rights to a deficiency judgment, or by any change, extension, release, inaccuracy, breach or failure to perform by any party under the Loan Documents, Obligors’ (and, if applicable, such other person’s) liability hereunder being direct and primary and not as a guarantor or surety. Nothing in this Agreement or in any Loan Document shall limit or impair any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent, Trustee and/or any other Indemnified Party against any Obligor or any other person under any Environmental Requirement or otherwise at law or in equity, including any rights of contribution or indemnification.
13. Consideration. Obligors acknowledge that Administrative Agent and other Lenders have relied and will rely on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein in closing and funding the Loan and that the execution and delivery of this Agreement is an essential condition but for which Administrative Agent and the other Lenders would not close or fund the Loan.
ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNITY AGREEMENT – Page 9
14. No Waiver. No delay or omission by any Indemnified Party to exercise any right under this Agreement shall impair any such right nor shall it be construed to be a waiver thereof.

Any waiver, consent or approval under this Agreement must be in writing to be effective.
15. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by courier, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses specified at the end of this Agreement (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by electronic mail or facsimile.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt.

16. Invalid Provisions. A determination that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and a determination that the application of any provision of this Agreement to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances.
