Covenants of Borrower. Borrower covenants and agrees that:


a.

subtenants, licensees and occupants of the Property to keep the Property free of all Hazardous Materials (except to the extent
permitted by Environmental Laws) and shall not cause or permit the Property or any part thereof to be used for the storage, treatment,
generation, transportation, processing, handling, production or disposal of any Hazardous Materials (except to the extent permitted
by Environmental Laws).

gross negligence or willful misconduct. The burden of proof with regard to establishing the date upon which Hazardous Materials
were placed or appeared in, on or under the Premises shall be upon the undersigned. Additionally, the obligations and liabilities
of Indemnitor under this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect with respect to any unasserted claim when
all of the following conditions are satisfied in full: (i) the Loan shall have been indefeasibly paid in full on or prior to the
Maturity Date, ii) Indemnitee shall have received, at Indemnitor’s expense, an updated environmental report dated within
sixty (60) days of the requested release showing that there exists no matter for which the Indemnified Parties are entitled to

including, without limitation, any notice of inspection, abatement, noncompliance or potential liability; (b) all claims made
or threatened in writing by any third party against the Borrower or the Property relating to any Hazardous Material or a violation
of a Environmental Law; and (c) Indemnitor’s discovery of any occurrence or condition on or under the Property or on
or under any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Property which could subject the Borrower or the Property to a claim
under any Environmental Law. The Borrower shall deliver to Lender any documentation or records as Lender may reasonably request
relating to such actions, claims or discovery and which are susceptible of being obtained by Borrower without undue cost or expense
and without the necessity for initiating legal proceedings to obtain the same.
