Title Insurance and Surveys Due to the critical timeline requirements to close the transaction, PHI may order title searches on all NPC Owned Real Property and NPC Leased Real Property to be transferred to PH pursuant to this Agreement. These title searches will be performed by a national title company approved by PHI. If permissible under applicable law and the terms of any agreement with such company, the fees paid for the searches may be applied toward the title policy costs for title policies desired by PH based upon these title searches. In the event PH or PHI requires environmental reports relating to the NPC Owned Real Property, PH shall first obtain NPC’s prior written consent and shall execute the Access and Confidentiality Agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit “E”. NPC will not consent to any invasive environmental audit or review and the results of any permitted environmental audit or review will not affect PH’s obligations hereunder. To the extent that PH requires surveys of the NPC Owned Real Property, PH shall retain a nationally recognized firm to perform such work. The consultants referenced in this Section 2.7 will be retained solely by PH, but NPC shall have the right to obtain copies of any documents or reports that they prepare. As provided for in Sections 5 and 10.9, PH shall reimburse NPC at Closing for all actual or estimated costs incurred by PH related to these items, subject to any post-closing adjustments pursuant to Section 10.1 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing however, PH will not be responsible for the payment or reimbursement of any costs relating to title insurance, surveys and/or environmental reports on any of the subject real estate unless such service is specifically requested by PH, and request is given forty-five (45) days prior to the Closing.
