Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Seller is hereby released from all responsibility and liability to Buyer regarding the condition, safety, accuracy, valuation, salability or utility of the Property (including every portion and component thereof), or its suitability for any purpose whatsoever except to the extent that such responsibility or liability is the result of the breach (if any) of Seller’s representations and warranties in this Agreement, and Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Seller and its officers, directors, shareholders, affiliated companies, employees, agents, representatives, successors and assigns free and harmless from any and all Damages arising in connection with any claims concerning the condition, safety, accuracy, valuation, salability, suitability or utility of the Property (including every portion and component thereof).

The foregoing releases and indemnities shall survive either (i) the Closing and the recordation of the Deed, and shall not be deemed merged into the Deed upon its recordation, or (ii) any termination of this Agreement.

(b) The Property is sold by Seller and purchased by Buyer in the condition as described in this Section 2.1 and subject to all applicable legal requirements, Permitted Encumbrances, Buyer’s Obligations, and Environmental Conditions (as such capitalized terms are hereinafter defined), including but not limited to any condition or repair of the Property with respect to any applicable legal requirement related to protection or restoration of the environment or human health. Buyer acknowledges that Buyer has been given the opportunity to inspect the Property and each component thereof and has determined to purchase the Property and each component thereof based upon such inspection, and upon the Closing, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Buyer shall assume the risk that adverse matters, including, but not limited to, noncompliance with any applicable legal requirements, construction defects, adverse physical conditions, Buyer’s Obligations and/or Environmental Conditions, as may or may not have been revealed by Buyer’s investigations, and Buyer, upon the Closing, shall be deemed to have waived, relinquished, and released the Seller Parties from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action (including, without limitation, causes of action in tort, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and court costs)) of any and every kind or character, known or unknown, that Buyer might have asserted or alleged against the Seller Parties at any time by reason of or arising out of any latent or patent construction defects or physical conditions, Environmental Conditions, violations of or noncompliance with any applicable legal requirements and any and all other acts, omissions, events, conditions, circumstances, or matters regarding the Property.

THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS SECTION 2.1 WILL EXPRESSLY SURVIVE THE CLOSING AND WILL NOT MERGE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF ANY DOCUMENTS OR INSTRUMENTS DELIVERED BY SELLER AND/OR BUYER IN CONNECTION WITH THE CLOSING.

SECTION 3.

ADDITIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS.

3.1 Buyer’s Environmental Due Diligence. A list of environmental documents provided by Seller to Buyer is set forth at Schedule 3.1. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that Seller provided Buyer with an opportunity to perform environmental sampling and inspections at the Property prior to Closing, and Buyer elected not to perform such environmental sampling or inspections.

3.2. Transfer Act. Seller shall be responsible for preparing and filing all initial filing documents for the conveyance contemplated in this Agreement, including the Form III and Environmental Condition Assessment Form, as required by Connecticut General Statutes Sections 22a-134 et. seq. (the “Transfer Act”) and Seller shall pay for expenses and fees associated with the preparation and filing of such forms. Buyer shall execute the Form III under the Transfer Act as the “transferee” and Seller shall execute the Form III under the Transfer Act as the “transferor” and “certifying party” at or prior to Closing. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that a Form III filing is appropriate and complies with the Transfer Act with respect to the transfer of the Property from Seller to Buyer as contemplated under this Agreement. Seller shall timely make the required Form III filing as required under the Transfer Act, and thereafter at its sole cost and expense perform the obligations of a certifying party for such Form III filing (including the payment of applicable fees) but solely in a manner and as provided for under and as limited by the terms of this Agreement.

3.3. Certain Environmental Provisions.

3.3.1. Buyer has determined that the Property will meet the Connecticut Remediation Standard Regulations, Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies (“RCSA”) Section 22a-133k-1 et seq. (“RSRs”) applicable to Industrial and Commercial Activities (as defined herein), including, but not limited to, all relevant criteria applicable to mass and leachable criteria for soil and all applicable groundwater, surface water and volatilization criteria when: (A) the Seller has completed the Transfer Act Work, and (B) an Environmental Land Use Restriction (or ELUR, as herein defined) has been recorded on the land records limiting use of the Property as follows:

A. Use. No residential use shall be permitted within the entire Property; and

B. Ground Water. Groundwater shall not be used for drinking or other purposes within the entire Property.

3.3.2. As used in this Agreement:

(a) “Industrial and Commercial Activities” means any activity related to the commercial production, distribution, manufacture or sale of goods or services, or any other activity that is not related to a (A) residence or dwelling, including, but not limited to a house, apartment, condominium, or (B) school, hospital, day care center, playground, or outdoor recreation area;

(b) “ELUR” or “Environmental Land Use Restriction” means an environmental land use restriction as defined in §22a-133q-1 of the RCSA as of the date hereof;

(c) “Permanent Use Limitations” means the limitations on uses of the Property that are set forth in Schedule 3.3.2(c) and shall be made a part of the Deed (as defined in Section 8.2(a)) to be reserved in the Deed in favor of and to be enforceable by Seller; and

(d) “Transfer Act Work” means solely the obligations of the Seller to serve as the certifying party at its sole cost and expense for a Form III filing under the Transfer Act as further described and limited under the terms of this Agreement with respect to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that certain obligations of Seller initially defined as being included under the definition of “Transfer Act Work” or Additional Seller Obligations (as that capitalized term is hereinafter defined) may become part of “Buyer’s Obligations” under the terms of this Agreement.

(e) “Additional Seller Obligations” means Seller’s obligations to: (i) hold harmless and indemnify Buyer for costs, liabilities and/or expenses to the extent incurred as a result of claims or orders brought by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection (“DEEP”): (A) within the earlier of five (5) years of the Closing or (as applicable) the DEEP approval of the Transfer Act Work or expiration of the DEEP’s statutory audit period for the verification of the Transfer Act Work prepared by Seller’s licensed environmental professional (either occurrence being a “Transfer Act Work Completion”), and (B) related solely to corrective action requirements arising out of operations conducted by Seller at the Real Property which meet the definition of a “Treatment, Storage, or Disposal Facility” as that term is defined in the Resource Conservation Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. § 6901 etseq. (“RCRA”); (ii) pay the deductible or self-insured retention for any claim under the “Environmental Insurance Policy” (as that capitalized term is hereinafter defined) in the event such claim arises within five (5) years and is solely from a condition or event caused by Seller during its ownership and operation of the Real Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, “Additional Seller’s Obligations” shall be void and a nullity, and Buyer shall fully release, indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all claims: (A) in excess of an aggregate cap of $600,000 (including but not limited to the payment of any and all deductibles and self-insured retentions) for which Buyer did or otherwise could have asserted a claim against Seller under the terms of this Agreement; (B) to the extent of any additional costs or requirements related to or arising from any failure of Buyer to comply with its obligations or limitations under this Agreement, including but not limited to those allowing Seller to discharge any and all of its obligations in a cost-effective manner and in its discretion as provided for under this Agreement (including but not limited to the use of ELURs, controlling third-party communications, and limiting the rights of Buyer to convey or lease the Property or conduct sampling); (C) not defined under Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations; (D) for which Buyer is able to secure coverage under the Environmental Insurance Policy”; or (E) for which Seller did not receive written notice from Buyer within the earlier of five (5) years after Closing or a Transfer Act Work Completion.

(f) “Buyer’s Obligations” means, with the sole exception of the Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations to be performed by Seller as further described and limited under the terms of this Agreement, the obligation of Buyer to promptly and fully address and comply with, at its sole cost and expense any and all Environmental Conditions, requirements, obligations, restrictions, prohibitions, directives or other actions or omissions related to or arising under any and all Environmental Laws, including but not limited to any and all Environmental Conditions and other circumstances that originated, arose or were exacerbated on or after Closing, and to otherwise fully and timely comply with any and all of the obligations of Buyer under this Section 3, and to fully indemnify, release and hold harmless Seller as provided for under the provisions of this Agreement (including but not limited to promptly and fully reimbursing Seller for any and all costs of compelling Buyer’s timely performance and forbearance under this Section 3. For purposes of clarification and not limitation, there shall be a presumption (rebuttable by Buyer based upon its burden of proof under a preponderance of the evidence standard, taking into account any information or documentation provided by Seller) that Buyer’s Obligations include the following: (i) any Environmental Condition or circumstance not reasonably indicated in the documents listed on Schedule 3.1; (ii) any Environmental Condition or circumstance not documented by or for Buyer prior to Closing; or (iii) any exacerbation of any Environmental Condition or circumstance reasonably indicated in the documents listed on Schedule 3.1 or documented by or for Buyer prior to Closing. “Buyer’s Obligations” shall also include any increase in costs and any additional obligations of any nature and to any extent whatsoever to the extent related to or arising from any and all of Buyer’s failure to fully comply with the provisions of this Section 3 or Buyer’s failure to fully satisfy its obligations and forebearance in relation to the Seller’s performance of any or all of the Transfer Act Work, Additional Seller’s Obligations, and Seller’s right to address same as described or limited by the terms of this Agreement. “Buyer’s Obligations” shall also include Buyer’s obligation to: (x) prior to binding coverage, promptly provide draft environmental insurance coverage indications and policy specimens (including all endorsements), subject to Seller’s reasonable review and approval, for an environmental insurance policy with coverages for cleanup of unknown conditions, bodily injury and property damage, with a minimum term of five (5) years, policy limits of at least $5 million, and a deductible / self-insured retention of no more than $250,000 in the aggregate for all related claims, with Seller identified as an additional insured for the duration of the entire term and for all coverages and policy limits (the “Environmental Insurance Policy”); and (xi) secure and pay all premiums (within 60 calendar days of Closing), and maintain throughout its term, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, the Environmental Insurance Policy. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that Seller may make claims against the environmental insurance policy regardless of whether its contractual obligations with Buyer exist or have terminated, provided that Seller (regardless of whether Seller has fully completed all Additional Seller’s Obligations) shall be responsible for the payment of any deductible or self-insured retention in the event Seller is the sole claimant for such claim and a Transfer Act Work Completion has occurred.

(g) “Environmental Conditions” means the presence or threatened presence of one or more substances in soil, surface water, groundwater, sediment, soil vapor, air or similar environmental media, or building material from a release or threatened release of any such substance or otherwise, either on-site and/or off-site of the Property, that require or could potentially require any action (including but not limited to any investigation, monitoring, removal, remediation or reporting) and/or require refraining from any action (including but not limited to any limitations or prohibitions on the use, occupancy, development or construction or removal of any structure or portion thereof) and/or that have resulted or may result in claims and/or demands by and/or liabilities to third parties, including but not limited to governmental entities, and/or that may otherwise relate to any compliance or noncompliance with any applicable Environmental Law.

(h) “Damages” means any and all liability, loss, injury, death, damage, claim, lien, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and costs.

(i) “Environmental Laws” means any and all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations, codes, ordinances, orders, decrees, directives, permits, licenses, registrations and judgments related to pollution, contamination or protection or restoration of human health or the environment, or the use, storage, treatment, disposal, recycling or other handling or management of any substance or material.

3.3.3. Environmental Obligations of Seller and Buyer.

(a) The scope of the Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations and Seller’s obligation to perform same shall be subject to and limited as follows:

(i) Seller shall have complete discretion and control in addressing the Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations in the most cost-effective manner available, including but not limited to utilizing any and all exceptions, exemptions, waivers, engineered controls, risk assessments, site specific standards, environmental land use restrictions, and alternative criteria available under the RSRs or as otherwise allowed under applicable legal requirements or standards, provided however, that if the restrictions on the Property are beyond those described in Section 3.3.1 prohibiting residential or groundwater uses, then Seller shall obtain Buyer’s written approval which shall not be unreasonably withheld;

(ii) Seller shall control the timing, scope and extent of any and all investigations and work at the Property, and Buyer shall not conduct any investigations or sampling at the Property except to the extent required by applicable Environmental Law and Seller first provides written approval after having a reasonable opportunity to review any such proposed investigation or sampling by Buyer which approval Seller may provide or withhold in its reasonable discretion;

(iii) Buyer shall record any environmental land use restriction (including but not limited to the ELUR as provided for in Section 3.3.1) as and when directed by the Seller, and Buyer shall fully comply with any and all restrictions and other obligations imposed by same as well as any other use limitations as provided for under this Agreement;

(iv) Buyer shall allow the placement, and shall ensure the integrity, of any engineered control, including but not limited to any building or other structure existing on the Property as of the Closing, provided that Seller provides financial assurance related to the maintenance of such engineered control to the extent required under applicable Environmental Law;

(v) With respect to any Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations or other conditions or requirements that may relate to the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations, Buyer shall not directly or indirectly initiate contact with any governmental entity authorized to enforce any Environmental Laws or any other third party. Seller shall at all times control any and all communications with such entities and parties, including but not limited to the presentation of the findings of any investigations and any proposal for or report related to the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations;

(vi) In the event Buyer conveys all or any portion of the Property or any interest therein at any time, Buyer shall ensure in its contract of sale that its successors and assigns comply with the restrictions set forth in this Section 3 of this Agreement; Seller may record and Buyer shall cooperate in the recordation of notice of such obligations on the Cheshire Land Records to provide reasonable notice of same;

(vii) Seller shall not be liable to Buyer or any third party for any Damages or environmental liabilities related to or arising from Buyer’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 3, and Buyer shall fully release, indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and for any and all such Damages or environmental liabilities. Seller shall not be liable to Buyer for any Damages or other losses related to or arising from the Seller exercising its discretion or fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement (e.g., Buyer shall have no claim against Seller as a result of or based upon Seller exercising or refraining from exercising any of its rights or performing any of its obligations under this Agreement, such as those related to any actual or potential diminution in value, material interference with the present use, or the marketability of the Property);

(viii) Buyer shall fully cooperate with Seller, including but not limited to allowing Seller access to the Property and providing access to any other third parties as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to develop a work plan, proposal or other specifications in connection with the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations or to otherwise perform the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations, provided however, that Seller shall provide evidence of reasonable insurance listing Buyer as an additional insured for such access, and Buyer shall otherwise fully cooperate with and support Seller’s performance of the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations; and

(ix) For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any and all actions or inactions of Buyer which directly or indirectly increase Seller’s costs, expenses, obligations, restrictions, prohibitions or requirements in any way related to or arising from any matter other than the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations as further described and limited in this Agreement or any failure of Buyer to fully and timely comply with the provisions of this Section 3 shall not constitute Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations, but instead any and all such increases shall be or become the obligation of Buyer to be incurred, reimbursed, addressed and discharged at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, and Buyer acknowledges and agrees that such obligations of Buyer may arise as a result of the acts or omissions of EDAC, Buyer, any of either of its or their employees, officers, directors, shareholders, successors and assigns, tenants and subtenants, and/or any other person or entity under the direction or control of EDAC or Buyer; and

(x) Seller shall semi-annually inform Buyer of the status of its Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations and promptly provide Buyer with copies of all submissions made to governmental authorities and all written notices from such authorities with respect to the Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations.

(b) Buyer shall provide Seller and its consultant and other agents with access to the Property for so long as is necessary for Seller to observe the performance of and compliance with the obligations of Buyer including but not limited to Buyer’s Obligations and all other requirements of Buyer under this Agreement, and to provide to Seller access to the Property to perform any of Seller’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Seller shall provide evidence of reasonable insurance listing Buyer as an additional insured for such access to the Property.

(c) Should Buyer fail to timely or adequately perform or satisfy any or all of Buyer’s Obligations, including but not limited to any matter or liability that became a Buyer Obligation by virtue of any failure of Buyer to comply with its obligations under this Section 3, Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation) to perform same and Buyer shall provide such access or take such action as is required or appropriate. Buyer shall immediately reimburse Seller for all reasonable costs (including reasonable professional and consultant fees and the reasonable value of the time of any employee of Seller or any of its affiliates) that Seller incurs in accessing the Property and performing such work or otherwise addressing any such failure of Buyer.

(d) The parties further agree as follows:

(1) Seller shall in no way be required to perform or incur any additional or further work or costs associated with any conditions or other applicable legal requirements in any way related to the Property other than the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations as further described and limited by the terms of the Agreement, including but not limited to any matter, requirement or condition related to or arising under any Environmental Law, any environmental land use restriction or use limitations, ELURs, or fees or costs associated with the Transfer Act or Additional Seller Obligations beyond the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations as further described and limited under the terms of this Agreement, any of Buyer’s Obligations, or any failure of Buyer to fully comply and ensure compliance with Buyer’s Obligations or any other requirements, obligations and restrictions of Buyer under this Section 3 or any other applicable legal requirement related to the protection or restoration or the environment or human health.

(2) Buyer is and shall be solely responsible for, and Seller is and shall be fully released, held harmless and indemnified by Buyer with respect to, any and all Damages with respect to any and all matters and applicable legal requirements other than the Transfer Act Work or Additional Seller Obligations as further described and limited under the terms of this Agreement in any way related to or arising from the Property or for any failure of Buyer to fully comply and ensure compliance with the requirements, obligations and restrictions of Buyer under this Section 3, including but not limited to any and all of Buyer’s Obligations however and whenever those arose. Seller is and shall be solely responsible for, and Buyer is and shall be fully released, held harmless and indemnified by Seller with respect to, any and all Damages with respect to the Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations as further described and limited by the terms of this Agreement.

(3) Buyer shall ensure full compliance with any and all environmental land use restrictions, ELURs and use limitations as provided for under this Agreement. For any post-Closing construction or excavation at the Property, Buyer shall incorporate appropriate active and/or passive vapor mitigation equipment or materials and monitoring to ensure protection of human health.

(4) Buyer may convey all or a portion of the Property to a third party subsequent to Closing, including but not limited to leasing or subleasing all or a portion of the Property, provided that: (A) any such conveyance is to an entity substantially related to and controlled by EDAC; (B) EDAC secures Seller’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; (C) prior to such conveyance, EDAC provides a guarantee and financial security that is reasonably acceptable to Seller to ensure that the duties and obligations to Seller, including but limited to any and all indemnities provided to Seller and to continue to fully provide and ensure Seller’s access rights, are and will be fully satisfied; and (D) except for leases to subsidiaries of Buyer, Gros-Ite Industries Inc., Apex Machine Tool Company, Inc. and EBTEC Corporation, each lease for less than a total of fifteen (15) years including all options and extensions and initially entered into within thirty (30) calendar days of Closing, EDAC (or such other entity acceptable to Seller in its sole discretion) shall be identified as and perform at its sole cost and expense all obligations of the “certifying party” and otherwise with respect to any filings under the Transfer Act required for any conveyance of all or any portion of the Property and Buyer and EDAC shall first agree in writing that Seller shall be thereby released from any and all remaining Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations (if any). Alternatively, Buyer may request that Seller agree to accommodate Buyer’s desire to assign or convey all or a portion of the Property, provided that any such accommodation shall ensure, in Seller’s sole discretion, Seller’s rights to perform and complete the Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations as described and limited by the terms of this Agreement in the event such assignment or conveyance were to occur. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may not assign or convey, without the written consent of Seller (in its sole discretion), its obligation to release, hold harmless and indemnify Seller as to all liabilities, costs, expenses or fees as provided for in this Section 3, but instead Buyer and EDAC shall remain fully obligated to Seller as provided for under this Agreement as if no such assignment occurred. The above terms of this Section 3.3.3(d)(4) shall no longer apply or control once Seller has fully satisfied all of its Transfer Act Work and Additional Seller Obligations and Buyer has acknowledged same in writing to Seller.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall (x) Seller’s aggregate liability to Buyer for breach of any representation or warranty of Seller in this Agreement or any certificate to delivered by Seller at Closing updating or restating Seller’s representations and warranties, taken in the aggregate with any other claims by Buyer against Seller (including any indemnification obligations), exceed the amount of the Cap (as hereinafter defined), or (y) Seller be liable for any consequential damages of Buyer or any punitive damages.

17.1 Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, together with the Schedules attached hereto, all of which are incorporated by reference, (a) is the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (b) fully and completely expresses their agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof. All understandings and agreements heretofore made between the Buyer Parties and the Seller Parties with respect to the subject matter of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are merged in this Agreement and the Schedules attached hereto. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement has been entered into after full investigation (or with the parties satisfied with the opportunity afforded for investigation), with neither party relying upon any statement or representation by the other unless such statement or representation is specifically embodied in this Agreement.

17.2 Captions; Interpretations.

The captions in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for reference and in no way define, limit or describe the scope of this Agreement or the scope or content of any of its provisions. Ambiguities in this Agreement shall not be construed against the party drafting this Agreement, notwithstanding any contrary rule of construction or interpretation at law or in equity. All words or terms used in this Agreement, regardless of the number or gender in which they are used, shall be deemed to include any other number and any other gender as the context may require.

17.3 Calculation of Time Periods.

If any date herein set forth for the performance of any obligations by Seller or Buyer or for the delivery of any instrument or notice as herein provided should be on a day other than a Business Day, then compliance with such obligations or delivery shall be deemed acceptable on the immediately next occurring Business Day.

No waiver, alteration, modification or interpretation hereof shall be binding unless in writing and signed by both parties. Failure on the part of any party to complain of any act or failure to act by any other party or to declare any other party in breach or default hereunder, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such party of its rights hereunder. No waiver or consent hereunder shall be effective unless it shall be in writing and signed by all the parties with the right to give or grant such waiver or consent, and the giving of such waiver or consent by such party in any one instance shall not limit or waive the necessity to obtain such party’s consent in any future instance.

17.5 Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement or application to any party or circumstances shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid and unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such provision to such person or circumstances, other than those as to which it is so determined invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision hereof shall be valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

EITHER OF SELLER OR BUYER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS SECTION IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ANY SUCH THIRD PARTY AGAINST SELLER OR BUYER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THE PARTIES INTENTIONS.

17.16 Proper Execution.

The submission by Seller to Buyer of this Agreement in unsigned form shall be deemed to be a submission solely for Buyer’s consideration and shall not be an offer capable of acceptance. Such submission shall have no binding force and effect, shall not constitute an option, and shall not confer any rights upon Buyer or impose any obligations upon Seller irrespective of any reliance thereon, change of position or partial performance.
