(vi) All Response Actions subject to this Section 6.11(d) shall meet the applicable standards, regulations, or requirements of applicable Law, including applicable Environmental Law or, where an applicable Governmental Entity with or asserting jurisdiction is supervising such Response Action, required by such Governmental Entity (the “Appropriate Remediation Standard”). In furtherance of and to the extent consistent with the foregoing, each Party (on behalf of itself and the other members of their respective Groups) agrees to utilize institutional controls and engineering controls (including capping, signs, fences and deed restrictions on the use of real property, soils or groundwater) to satisfy the Appropriate Remediation Standard and to cooperate in obtaining all necessary approvals of the use of such controls; provided that such controls do not prevent or materially interfere with the continued operation or reasonable future expansion of the operations on such real property. Once a notice of no further action or equivalent determination with respect to such matter has been issued by a Governmental Entity (or, if the Governmental Entity has delegated authority to conduct and certify the completion of a Response Action to a licensed professional, upon notice of the applicable Governmental Entity’s receipt and acceptance of such licensed professional’s certification), the Indemnifying Party shall have no further obligations with respect to such matter, other than with respect to any Indemnifiable Losses arising out of (i) any Third Party Claims relating to such matter and (ii) the performance of and any costs associated with any ongoing operations and maintenance, if any, required with respect to the Response Action, including inspections and repair of any engineering controls, ongoing pumping and treating of impacted groundwater (including any material equipment or system repairs, replacements or required upgrades), ongoing groundwater monitoring and related reporting, and the provision of any required financial assurance, provided that the Indemnitee shall be responsible for the performance of and any costs associated with any and all ongoing operations and maintenance relating to the following obligations: (A) any institutional controls, including any deed restrictions or land use controls and reporting obligations related to the same; (B) monitoring, maintenance, repair and reporting associated with a cap used as part of the remedy, but only to the extent that the cap consists of (x) the buildings at the site, (y) asphalt or similar materials already present at the site or that are used at the site for purposes in addition to the Response Action (i.e., parking), or (z) landscaping; and (C) groundwater monitoring associated with a natural monitored attenuation remedy. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to transfer to the Indemnitee (upon payment of the amount set forth in this sentence as mutually agreed in writing by the Indemnifying Party and Indemnitee or determined pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article VIII) its obligations for its ongoing operations and maintenance costs, if any, with respect to engineering controls approved as part of a no further action, equivalent determination or certification if the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay to the Indemnitee a sum equal to the present value of the reasonably estimated future costs of said engineering controls (where the period of time used for such present value calculation shall be the entire period for which it is reasonably anticipated that such continuing obligations will be performed, but no more than thirty (30) years, and the discount rate shall be reasonable). If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee cannot mutually agree in writing on the amount set forth in the preceding sentence, such disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article VIII of this Agreement. In the event that any Governmental Entity reopens or otherwise modifies any determination related to the notice of no further action or equivalent determination, or notice of receipt and acceptance of the licensed professional’s certification, such that additional Response Actions are required, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnitee for any Liabilities associated with the reopening or modification of such determination that would have otherwise constituted Indemnifiable Losses of such Indemnitee.
