Environmental Investigation Sample Clauses

The Environmental Investigation clause establishes the right and process for a party, typically a buyer or tenant, to assess a property for environmental contamination or hazards before completing a transaction. This clause usually allows for site inspections, testing of soil or groundwater, and review of environmental records within a specified timeframe, sometimes requiring the party to restore the property after testing. Its core function is to identify potential environmental liabilities early, enabling informed decision-making and risk allocation between the parties.

Environmental Investigation. (a) Heritage shall engage an environmental consultant acceptable to Acquiror to conduct a preliminary ("Phase I") environmental assessment of each of the parcels of real estate used in the operation of the businesses of Heritage and any Heritage Subsidiary and any other real estate owned by Heritage or a Heritage Subsidiary (other than single family residences). The fees and expenses of the consultant with respect to the Phase I assessments shall be shared equally by Acquiror and Heritage. The consultant shall complete and deliver the Phase I assessments not later than 60 days after the date of this Agreement. If any environmental conditions are found, suspected, or would tend to be indicated by the report of the consultant which may be contrary to the representations and warranties of Heritage set forth herein without regard to any exceptions that may be contained in Heritage's Schedules, then the parties shall obtain from one or more mutually acceptable consultants or contractors, as appropriate, an estimate of the cost of any further environmental investigation, sampling, analysis, remediation or other follow-up work that may be necessary to address those conditions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. (b) Upon receipt of the estimate of the costs of all follow-up work to the Phase I assessments or any subsequent investigation phases that may be conducted, the parties shall attempt to agree upon a course of action for further investigation and remediation of any environmental condition suspected, found to exist, or that would tend to be indicated by the report of the consultant. All post-Phase I investigations or assessments (the cost of which shall be paid by Heritage), all work plans for any post-Phase I assessments or remediation, and any removal or remediation actions that may be performed, shall be mutually satisfactory to Acquiror and Heritage. If such work plans or removal or remediation actions would cost more than $3,000,000 (individually or in the aggregate on a tax affected basis) to complete, Acquiror and Heritage shall discuss a mutually acceptable modification of this Agreement.

Environmental Investigation. (a) If any Phase I Report indicates the presence of any hazardous substance with respect to any Owned Real Estate, and such presence is a condition that requires remediation pursuant to appropriate governmental standards, then, at Purchaser's request made in writing to Seller within ten (10) days after the date of this Agreement, and at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, Seller shall arrange to cause a consultant approved by both Seller and Purchaser to conduct a Phase II environmental audit as to such hazardous substance and deliver to Seller and Purchaser the results of such audit within forty-five days after the request by Purchaser. If the Phase II audit report confirms that such presence requires remediation pursuant to appropriate governmental standards and if such presence, if not remediated, would materially adversely affect the business of the Branch situated upon the Owned Real Estate and Purchaser requests that Seller take remedial action with respect thereto, then Purchaser shall so notify Seller in writing promptly after receipt of the Phase II environmental audit report, whereupon Seller shall have the right to (i) terminate this Agreement as it relates to the Assets and Liabilities of the affected Branch, (ii) undertake remedial action as to such presence at its sole cost and expense so that no material continuing violation of any environmental law exists (provided, however, that the timing of any such remediation shall be coordinated with Purchaser to minimize any resulting business interruption), or (iii) agree to indemnify Purchaser for all actual costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser to remediate the Owned Real Estate as to such presence so that no material continuing violation of any environmental law exists. (b) If Purchaser fails to request a Phase II environmental audit or to exercise its right to make a request that Seller remediate any Owned Real Estate in each case as and when required above, then Purchaser shall be bound to the terms of this Agreement without a right of termination except as provided in Article XI and without a further right to request or to require any Seller remediation or indemnification. Any termination by Seller under this Article X shall neither create nor result in any liability of the Seller to the Purchaser.
