During the period from the Effective Time until Closing, Seller shall have no liability to Buyer for Claims sustained or liabilities incurred with respect to the Assets, REGARDLESS OF THE SOLE, JOINT, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, REGULATORY LIABILITY, STATUTORY LIABILITY, BREACH OF CONTRACT (EXCLUDING BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY SELLER), BREACH OF WARRANTY OR OTHER FAULT OR RESPONSIBILITY OF SELLER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR PARTY, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SELLER.
