	treat this Agreement as terminated by reason of the non-fulfillment of the Defaulting Party's obligations and, if the Injured Party so decides, pursue a claim for damages; or
	continue to treat the Agreement as binding and enforceable, pending resolution of the default by agreement of the Parties or by a court of competent jurisdiction.

However, the Injured Party shall be deemed to be treating the Agreement as binding and enforceable, unless and until it specifically elects in writing to pursue the alternative in Paragraph (a) of this Clause.

Any money received and not remitted within 10 days after receipt shall bear interest at the Prime Rate from the date of receipt until the date of payment to the Purchaser.

11.0 LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

11.1Responsibility of Vendor

Provided that Closing has occurred, the Vendor shall:

	be liable to the Purchaser for all losses, costs, damages and expenses whatsoever which the Purchaser may suffer, sustain, pay or incur; and

	indemnify and save the Purchaser and its directors, officers, servants, agents, consultants and employees harmless from and against all losses, costs, damages, expenses, claims, liabilities, actions, proceedings and demands whatsoever which may be brought against or suffered by the Purchaser, its directors, officers, servants, agents, consultants or employees or which they may sustain, pay or incur;

as a result of the breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Vendor contained herein, except any losses, costs, damages, expenses, claims, liabilities, actions, proceedings and demands to the extent that the same are either reimbursed (or reimbursable) by insurance maintained by the Purchaser or are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Purchaser, its directors, officers, servants, agents, employees or assigns. Notwithstanding any provision herein, the liability of the Vendor and the indemnity hereby granted by the Vendor to the Purchaser shall only apply with respect to claims made within eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date.

11.2Responsibility Of Purchaser

Provided that Closing has occurred, and subject to Clause 4.2 Purchaser shall assume all of the Vendor's liabilities and obligations, under contracts to which they are made parties or which are assigned to them by virtue of documents delivered at Closing arising after the Effective Date in respect to the Assets and shall,
(a)be liable to the Vendor for all losses, costs, damages and expenses whatsoever which the Vendor may suffer, sustain, pay or incur; and

22

(b)indemnify and save the Vendor and its directors, officers, servants, agents and employees harmless from and against all claims, liabilities, actions, proceedings, demands, losses, costs, damages and expenses whatsoever which may be brought against or suffered by the Vendor, its directors, officers, servants, agents or employees or which they may sustain, pay or incur;

as a direct result of any matter or thing arising out of, resulting from, attributable to or connected with the Assets and occurring subsequent to the Effective Date, except any losses, costs, damages, expense, claims, liabilities, actions, proceedings and demands to the extent that the same either are reimbursed (or reimbursable) by insurance maintained by the Vendor or arise as a result from or are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Vendor, it's directors, officers, servants, agents, employees or assigns, or the breach of inaccuracy of any of the Vendor's representations and warranties in Clause 6.1 (and without regard to the time limit set out in Clause 6.3). The responsibility prescribed by this Clause, however, does not provide either an extension of any representation or warranty contained in Clause 6.2 or an additional remedy for breach of such a representation or warranty. Nothing contained in this Clause shall relieve the Vendor from any liability arising as a result of a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Clause 6.1.

11.3Limit On Vendor's Responsibility

In no event shall the total of the liabilities and indemnities of the Vendor under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any claims relating to its representations and warranties, exceed the Purchase Price.

11.4Assets Acquired On "As Is" Basis

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article, but subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Purchaser acknowledges that it is acquiring the Assets on an "as is" basis, as of the Effective Date. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is familiar with the condition of the Assets, including the past and present use of the Lands and the Tangibles, that the Vendor has provided the Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity to inspect the Assets at the sole cost, risk and expense of the Purchaser (insofar as the Vendor could reasonably provide such access) and that the Purchaser is not relying upon any representation or warranty of the Vendor as to the condition, environmental or otherwise, of the Assets, except as is specifically made pursuant to Clause 6.1. Provided that Closing has occurred, Purchaser further agrees that, as of the Effective Date, it shall:
(a)be solely liable and responsible for any and all losses, costs, damages and expenses (in this Clause, "Losses") which the Vendor may suffer, sustain, pay or incur; and

23

(b)indemnify and save the Vendor and its directors, officers, servants, agents and employees harmless from any and all claims, liabilities, actions, proceedings, demands, losses, costs, damages and expenses whatsoever (in this Clause, "Claims") which may be brought against or suffered by the Vendor, its directors, officers, servants, agents or employees or which they may sustain, pay or incur;

as a direct result of any matter or thing arising out of, resulting from, attributable to or connected with any environmental damage pertaining to or resulting from the Assets or the operation thereof, or any of them to the extent that the Losses or Claims accrue on or after the Effective Date (but regardless of the date on which the environmental damage occurred) including, without limitation, damage from or removal of hazardous or toxic substances, cleanup, well abandonment, decommissioning and reclamation and, as between the Vendor, on the one hand, and Purchaser on the other hand, Purchaser shall be solely responsible for all such Losses and Claims relating to environmental damage. Nothing contained in this Clause shall relieve the Vendor from any liability arising as a result of a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Clause 6.1.

11.5No Merger Of Legal Responsibilities

The liabilities and indemnities created in this Article shall be deemed to apply to, and shall not merge in, all assignments, transfers, conveyances, novations, trust agreements and other documents conveying any of the Assets from the Vendor to the Purchaser, notwithstanding the terms of such assignments, transfers, conveyances, novations and other documents, the Regulations or any rule of law or equity to the contrary, and all such rules are hereby waived.

11.6Substitution And Subrogation

Insofar as is possible, each Party shall have full rights of substitution and subrogation in and to all covenants, representations and warranties by others previously given or made in respect of the Assets or any of them.

11.7 Responsibility Extends To Legal Costs

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Article, references to costs in the liability and indemnification obligations prescribed by Clauses 11.1, 11.2 and 11.4 shall be deemed to include reasonable legal costs on a solicitor-client basis. 

12.0 WAIVER

12.1Waiver Must Be In Writing

24
