Common use of Extraordinary Expenditures Clause in Contracts

Extraordinary Expenditures. In the event of an emergency arising out of a fire or other event, circumstance or condition that gives rise to a life threatening situation, or a safety, environmental or regulatory noncompliance concern, or that would cause Newco to be in commercial default of a material contract, Crestwood Midstream shall be authorized to take such actions as are necessary and reasonable in the judgment of Crestwood Midstream to mitigate the life threatening situation or safety, environmental, regulatory or default concern. Crestwood Midstream agrees that it shall make diligent efforts (if circumstances permit) to inform Newco of the cause of such emergency and the actions Crestwood Midstream proposes to take in response thereto, as soon as practicable and within 24 hours of such emergency (or immediately, if such emergency involves the presence at the premises of any Company of government or law enforcement representatives). Such notification shall not, however, be a condition limiting Crestwood Midstream’s authority to take any such actions and make any related expenditures. Crestwood Midstream’s costs to mitigate the life threatening safety, commercial default, environmental or regulatory concern (“Extraordinary Expenditures”) shall be reimbursed by Newco except to the extent such emergency was caused by the gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct of this Agreement by Crestwood Midstream.
