<br />Grantor has made a complete search of its records concerning the Property subject to this Deed.
<br />Those records indicate that the hazardous substances, as defined by Section 101 (14) of
<br />CERCLA, shown on Exhibit "B," attached hereto and made a part hereof, have been stored for
<br />one year or more (S), released (R), or disposed of (D) on the Property during the time the
<br />Property was owned by the Grantor. The Grantee should review the Final Environmental
<br />Baseline Survey No. 38-EH-8519-99 dated 9-20 November 1998 and the Finding of Suitability
<br />to Transfer (FOST) dated March 2008 for further details.
<br />
<br />b. The Grantor covenants and warrants that all remedial action necessary to ensure
<br />protection of human health and the environment with respect to any such substance remaining
<br />on the Property has been taken prior to the date hereof. Furthermore, excepting those situations
<br />where the Grantee, its successors or assigns, hereunder are potentially responsible parties, as
<br />defined by CERCLA, any additional remedial action found to be necessary with respect to any
<br />such substance remaining on the Property after the date hereof shall be conducted by the
<br />United States.
<br />
<br />c. The Grantor shall not incur liability for additional response action or corrective action
<br />found to be necessary after the date of transfer in any case in which the person or entity to whom
<br />the Property is transferred, or other non-Grantor entities, is identified as t4e party responsible for,
<br />contamination of the Property.
<br />
<br />d. Grantor reserves a right of access to all portions of the Property for environmental
<br />investigation, remediation, or other corrective action. This reservation includes the right of
<br />access to and use of, to the extent permitted by law, available utilities at reasonable cost to the
<br />Grantor. These rights shall be exercisable in any case in which a remedial action, response
<br />action, or corrective action is found to be necessary after the date of this conveyance, or in
<br />which access is necessary to carry out a remedial action, response action, or corrective action on
<br />adjoining Property. Pursuant to this reservation, the United States, and its respective officers,
<br />agents, employees, contractors and subcontractors shall have the right (upon reasonable notice to
<br />the Grantee or the then owner and any authorized occupant of the Property) to enter upon the
<br />herein described Property and conduct investigations and surveys, to include drilling, test-
<br />pitting, borings, data and records compilation and other activities related to environmental
<br />investigation, and to carry out remedial or removal actions as required or necessary, including
<br />but not limited to the installation, operation, and removal of monitoring wells, pumping wells,
<br />and treatment facilities. Any such entry, including such activities, responses or remedial actions,
<br />shall be coordinated with record title owner and shall be performed in a manner that minimizes
<br />interruption with activities of authorized occupants. Grantor will provide the record title owner
<br />reasonable advance notice of such activities, responses, or remedial actions. This subparagraph
<br />shall not affect the Grantor's future responsibilities, if any, to conduct response actions or
<br />corrective actions that are required by applicable laws, rules, and regulations.
