All Remedial Work will be performed by contractors approved in advance by Beneficiary, which approval shall not be unreasonably withhold or delayed, and under the supervision of a consulting engineer approved by Beneficiary, which approval shall not be unreasonably withhold or delayed. All costs and expenses of such Remedial Work shall be paid by Indemnitors including, without limitation, Beneficiary’s Attorney’s Fees incurred in connection with monitoring or review of such Remedial Work.

Except as already disclosed in the Environmental Reports (as hereinafter defined), Indemnitors shall also provide Beneficiary with prompt written notice in reasonable detail of (i) any Disposal or threatened Disposal at, on, under or from the Property of which any of the Indemnitors becomes aware which could reasonably be expected to give rise to an Indemnified Event; (ii) any notice received by any Indemnitor from any federal, state, municipal or other governmental agency or authority in connection with any Disposal located at, on, in, or under, or emanating from, the Property; and (iii) any knowledge of any incurrence of expense by any governmental agency or authority in connection with the assessment, containment or removal of any Hazardous Materials located at, on, in, or under, or emanating from the Property. Indemnitors shall also promptly provide Beneficiary with a copy of any future environmental reports, investigations, studies, audits, tests or other technical analyses relating to the Property that are obtained by Indemnitors.

Indemnitors shall promptly provide Beneficiary with copies of all correspondence, reports, notices, orders, findings, declarations and other materials regarding Indemnitors’ compliance with the requirements of applicable Environmental Laws as they are issued to or received by Indemnitors. The foregoing undertakings shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement, as well as any assignment of the Property by Beneficiary, as and to the extent set forth in Section 2.

(f) If a written program of operations and maintenance is required to be followed by any Borrower with respect to Hazardous Materials (“O&M Program”), such Borrower shall establish such O&M Program and comply in a timely manner with, and cause all tenants, operators, managers, employees, agents, and contractors of such Borrower and any other persons present on the Property to comply with the O&M Program. All costs of performance of such Borrower’s obligations under any O&M Program shall be paid by such Borrower, and Beneficiary’s out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with the monitoring and review of the O&M Program and such Borrower’s performance shall be paid by Indemnitors upon demand by Beneficiary.

(g) No storage tanks (including, without limitation, petroleum or heating oil storage tanks), underground or above-ground, are present on or under the Property.

6. Inspection by Beneficiary. In the event that (a) Indemnitors are in default under any of the Loan Documents beyond any applicable notice, grace and cure periods contained therein, if any, or (b) Beneficiary reasonably believes that there is a substantial likelihood that there exists (i) a Violation of any of the Environmental Laws with respect to the Property, (ii) a Disposal of Hazardous Materials that requires notice to any person, further investigation, or any form of response action under Environmental Law with respect to the Property, or (iii) a breach by any of the Indemnitors of any covenant under this Agreement, then, if Indemnitors do not immediately commence and thereafter diligently proceed to satisfy all of their obligations under this Agreement, Beneficiary is, itself, authorized, along with its agents, employees or environmental consultants to enter at any time during normal business hours upon any part of the Property, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior notice of its intent to do so, for the purpose of inspecting the same for Hazardous Materials that have given or might reasonably give rise to an Indemnified Event, and such inspections may include, without limitation, soil borings and other invasive tests, which tests shall be reasonable in scope and shall be done in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws by qualified environmental professionals, possessing reasonable levels of general liability, workers’ compensation, automotive and professional liability insurance, and subject to any timing restrictions as to site access contained in the relevant tenant leases.

Indemnitors agree to pay to Beneficiary, upon Beneficiary’s demand, all actual out-of-pocket expenses, costs or other amounts reasonably incurred by Beneficiary in performing any inspection and/or testing for the purposes set forth in this Section 6. Beneficiary is under no duty, however, to visit or observe the Property or to conduct tests, and any such acts by Beneficiary shall be for the sole purpose of protecting Beneficiary’s rights under the Loan Documents. In no event shall any site visit, observance or testing by Beneficiary be a representation that Hazardous Materials are or are not present in, on, or under the Property, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any Loan Document and/or any applicable governmental law. None of the Indemnitors nor any other party is entitled to rely on any site visit, observation or testing by Beneficiary unless agreed to in writing by Beneficiary.

From and after the date that any claim hereunder shall have been made by Beneficiary, and continuing until any such claim shall have been paid in full or there has been a final determination (which shall mean a non appealable determination, or where any right of appeal exists, it has been allowed to lapse) that such claim is not valid, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Indemnitors hereby subordinate to Beneficiary’s rights under the Loan to Borrowers, any claim or other rights which Indemnitors may now have or hereafter acquire against any Borrower and Guarantor of all or any of the Loan that arise from the existence or performance of Indemnitors’ obligations under this Agreement (all such claims and rights are referred to as Indemnitors’ “Conditional Rights”), including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Beneficiary against any Borrower or any collateral which Beneficiary now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right of Indemnitors arises by contract or in equity or under law, by virtue of any payment made by Indemnitors hereunder, including without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any amount shall be paid to any of the Indemnitors hereunder on account of any such Indemnitor’s Conditional Rights and either (a) such amount is paid to such Indemnitor at any time when the Loan shall not have been paid or performed in full, or (b) regardless of when such amount is paid to such Indemnitor, any payment made by any of the Indemnitors to Beneficiary is at any time determined to be a preference or a Preferential Payment (hereinafter defined) under the terms of any bankruptcy or insolvency laws, rules, regulations, orders or decrees, then such amount paid to any of the Indemnitors shall be held in trust for the benefit of Beneficiary and shall forthwith be paid to Beneficiary to be credited and applied upon the Loan, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as Beneficiary, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine. As used herein, the term “Preferential Payment” shall mean any payment all or any part of which is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by Beneficiary or paid over to a trustee, receiver or any other entity, whether pursuant to any bankruptcy or fraudulent transfer act or other similar act or law.
