SECTION III. PETROLEUM TERMINAL

|
|
|
|
1.
|
In the event that one or more of
the owned Petroleum Terminal Properties set forth on Schedule Y
hereto is not in compliance in any respect with any Environmental
Law(s) as in effect as of the Restatement Effective Date or if
there are conditions existing at any Petroleum Terminal Property as

compliance, with such Environmental Laws or to
|
2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mitigate the potential for future
non-compliance with such Environmental Laws, Tenant and Landlord
shall share the actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses related to
the Remediation and other compliance-related activities (any such
Remediation and other compliance-related activities being referred
to herein as the “Preexisting Condition Terminal
Compliance”) (Liabilities associated with any Remediation
activities at the Newark Petroleum Terminal Property related to or
arising from the Industrial Sites Recovery Act (“ISRA”)
shall not be considered Preexisting Condition Terminal Compliance,
but shall be addressed by Subsection 4 below) as
follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a.
|
First, Tenant shall pay all costs
and expenses incurred in connection with such Preexisting Condition
Terminal Compliance until the amount so incurred with respect
thereto equals $1,500,000 in aggregate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
b.
|
Second, Landlord and Tenant shall
share equally the next $8,500,000 of such costs and expenses
incurred in connection with such Preexisting Condition Terminal
Compliance until the amount so incurred with respect thereto equals
$10,000,000 in aggregate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
c.
|
Third, to the extent that such
costs and expenses incurred in connection with such Preexisting
Condition Terminal Compliance exceeds $10,000,000, all such costs
and expenses shall be borne by Tenant.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
d.
|
Notwithstanding the above,
Landlord shall be solely responsible for the actual, out-of-pocket
costs and expenses related to the Preexisting Condition Terminal
Compliance for the Highspire Petroleum Terminal
Property.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The net effect of the foregoing
provisions is that, for Petroleum Terminal Properties other than
the Highspire Petroleum Terminal Property, Landlord shall not pay
more than $4,250,000 in connection with all Preexisting Condition
Terminal Compliance. Until the amount expended with respect to
Preexisting Condition Terminal Compliance exceeds $10,000,000,
Tenant shall forward to Landlord copies of all invoices and bills
received by Tenant in connection with such Preexisting Condition
Terminal Compliance and evidence of Tenant’s payment
therefor. Within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such
evidence, Landlord shall, if so required pursuant to this Section
III, reimburse Tenant for Landlord’s share of the amount paid
by Tenant with respect to such invoices and bills.

2.
|
In connection with any proposed
Preexisting Condition Terminal Compliance contemplated at a time
when the costs and expenses incurred by Tenant for all prior
Preexisting Condition Terminal Compliance expenditures exceed
$1,500,000 in aggregate (and Landlord shall not have paid its
maximum amount), Tenant shall furnish to Landlord plans setting
forth the scope of such project and an estimate of the cost
thereof, certified by a reputable environmental engineering firm (a
“Terminal Expenditure Plan”).
|
|
|
|
|
|
a.
|
Landlord shall have thirty (30)
days from the receipt of any such Terminal Expenditure Plan either
to approve such Terminal Expenditure Plan or provide Tenant with an
alternate Terminal Expenditure Plan, certified by a reputable
environmental engineering firm, which alternate Terminal
Expenditure Plan shall have the same scope as Tenant’s
Terminal Expenditure Plan but may have a lower cost estimate than
that set forth in Tenant’s Terminal Expenditure
Plan.
|
3
|
|
|
|
|
|
b.
|
If Landlord fails to approve
Tenant’s Terminal Expenditure Plan or to provide Tenant with
such alternate Terminal Expenditure Plan within such thirty (30)
day period, Landlord’s approval of such Terminal Expenditure
Plan shall be deemed granted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
c.
|
In the event that Landlord
provides Tenant with an alternate Terminal Expenditure Plan, such
Preexisting Condition Terminal Compliance shall be conducted in
accordance with such alternate Terminal Expenditure Plan, unless
Tenant reasonably disapproves of such Terminal Expenditure Plan
within seven (7) days of receipt of the same.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
d.
|
If Tenant fails to respond to
such alternate Terminal Expenditure Plan within such seven (7) day
period, then Tenant’s approval of such alternate Terminal
Expenditure Plan shall be deemed granted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
e.
|
If Tenant reasonably disapproves
of such alternate Terminal Expenditure Plan and if Landlord and
Tenant cannot thereafter promptly agree on a Terminal Expenditure
Plan, such dispute shall be resolved by an arbitration conducted in
accordance with the applicable provisions set forth in Exhibit F of
the Restated Master Lease.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
f.
|
Except as provided in Subsection
g. below, all Preexisting Condition Terminal Compliance shall be
conducted in accordance with the Terminal Expenditure
Plan.

|
|
|
|
|
|
g.
|
In the event of an imminent and
substantial endangerment or when, in the reasonable judgment of
Tenant, immediate action is necessary to avoid enforcement
activities, or a fine and/or penalty in excess of $1500 per day or
$100,000 in the aggregate, by an applicable Government, Tenant may
take such action as necessary to respond to the imminent and
substantial endangerment or to avoid enforcement by the applicable
Government, pr
