consent), damages (including consequential and punitive damages awarded to any third -party), decrees, fines,
judgments, liabilities (including for strict liability), losses, obligations, orders and penalties (whether compensatory or

or required to comply with applicable Environmental Law, including, without limitation, action to (x) test, identify,

Materials (ail of the foregoing, collectively, "Losses").
In the event that any Grantor Indemnitee receives written notice of the assertion of any Claim by any third -party or any
governmental entity with respect to which the Grantee is required to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the
Grantor Indemnitee shall provide Grantee with prompt written notice (a "Claim Notice") of any Claim for which
indemnity is sought, which Claim Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail a statement of the pertinent facts known to
the Grantor Indemnitee concerning the Claim(s) that are the subject of the Claim Notice; provided, however, that any
failure by a Grantor Indemnitee to give a timely, complete or accurate Claim Notice shall not affect the rights or
obligations of any party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, Grantee's defense of
any such Claim was materially and adversely prejudiced. Grantee shall have the right, upon delivering written notice
(the "Defense Notice") to the Grantor Indemnitee within six (6) months after receipt from a Grantor Indemnitee of a
Claim Notice, to assume and conduct, at Grantee's sole cost and expense, the defense against those Claims identified
in the Claim Notice that are identified in the Defense Notice; provided, however, that (i) delivery by Grantee of a
Defense Notice shall constitute Grantee's irrevocable agreement that the Grantor Indemnitee(s) are entitled to
PAGE 2
1372 BK:01372 PG- 0472
0472idemnification under this Agreement with respect to the Claims set forth in the Defense Notice, and (ii) Grantor shall
have the right to approve the defense counsel engaged by Grantee, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed (provided that Grantor hereby approves Moore & Van Allen PLLC). In the event that Grantee
shall fail to give a Defense Notice for any Claims identified in the Claims Notice within six (6) months after receipt
from a Grantor Indemnitee of such Claim Notice, then in any such event the Grantor Indemnitees shall have the right
to conduct the defense of the Claims identified in the Claim Notice in good faith, provided that Grantor Indemnitees
shall be prohibited from compromising or settling any such Claims without the prior written consent of Grantee, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In order to seek Grantee's consent, a Grantor
Indemnitee must provide to Grantee written notice detailing all of the terms, conditions and obligations of any proposed
settlement or compromise, including providing a copy of any proposed settlement agreement or other contractual
arrangement to be executed by parties to the proposed settlement or compromise (a "Grantor Indemnitee Settlement
Notice'). If Grantee does not provide to the respective Grantor Indemnitee(s) a written response to a Grantor
Indemnitee Settlement Notice within twenty (20) Business Days of Grantee's receipt of the Grantor Indemnitee
Settlement Notice (as provided in Section 18(b) herein), then Grantee's consent will be deemed given to the respective
Grantor Indemnitee. In the event the Grantee does timely deliver a Defense Notice and thereby elects to conduct the
defense of the Claims identified in the Defense Notice, the Grantor Indemnitees will cooperate with and make available
to the Grantee such assistance and materials as Grantee may reasonably request, all at the sole cost and expense of
Grantee. Regardless of which party defends such Claims, the other party hereto shall have the right at its own cost and
expense to participate in the defense assisted by counsel of its own choosing. Without the prior written consent of the
Grantor Indemnitees, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Grantee shall not approve the
entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise of any such Claims if (a) pursuant to or as a result of
such judgment, settlement or compromise, such judgment, settlement or compromise would lead to liability or create
any financial or other obligation on the part of any Grantor Indemnitee for which the Grantor Indemnitee is not fully
indemnified and made whole hereunder, (b) the terms of such judgment, settlement or compromise do not provide for
a full and complete release of all such Claims in favor of each Grantor Indemnitee that is the subject of the Claim, and
(c) injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against any Grantor Indemnitee. In order to seek a Grantor
Indemnitee's consent, Grantee must provide to the Grantor Indemnitee written notice detailing all of the terms,
conditions and obligations of any proposed judgment, settlement or compromise, including providing a copy of any
proposed settlement agreement or other contractual arrangement to be executed by parties to the proposed settlement
or compromise (a "Grantee Settlement Notice"). If a Grantor Indemnitee does not provide to Grantee a written
response to a Grantee Settlement Notice, within twenty (20) Business Days of the Grantor Indemnitee's receipt of the
Grantee Settlement Notice (as provided under Section 4 herein), then the Grantor Indemnitee's consent shall be deemed
given to the Grantee. Any judgment entered or settlement or compromise agreed upon as set forth in a Grantor
Indemnitee Settlement Notice that is consented to by Grantee or a Grantee Settlement Notice that is consented to by
Grantor, in the manner provided herein, shall be binding upon Grantee, and shall be conclusively deemed to be an
obligation with respect to which the Grantor Indemnitees are entitled to prompt indemnification hereunder, subject to
Grantee's right to appeal an appealable judgment or order.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Hazardous Materials" means chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, wastes,
toxic substances, hazardous substances, radioactive materials or genetically modified organisms, which are, have been

C.F.R. § 1910.1200); the term "Environmental Claim" means any claim, action, cause of action, investigation, or

by the Grantor, or (zz) circumstances forming the basis of any actual or alleged violation of any Environmental Law;
and the term "Environmental Law" means all federal, state, local, and foreign laws and regulations relating to pollution

Release or Threatened Release of Hazardous Materials in, at, on, under, about, originating from or relating to the
Property, or any Claims or Losses relating thereto, then (i) there shall be a presumption that such Hazardous Materials
were first introduced and first present in, at, on, under or about the Property after the Effective Date, and (ii) Grantee
shall bear the burden of proof if Grantee claims or asserts that such Hazardous Materials were present in, at, on, under
or about the Property on or prior to the Effective Date.

transferee thereof, at or prior to such sale, assignment or transfer, agrees in writing (x) to be bound by and comply with
the terms of this Section 3 as if it were the Grantee hereunder, and (y) that Grantor is an intended beneficiary of such
writing. The immediately preceding sentence shall expire and be of no further force and effect at such time as none of
the following owns any portion of the Subject Property: (i) Grantor, (ii) Grantor's affiliates, (iii) any successor to all or
substantially all of the business of Grantor or its affiliates, and (iv) any direct or indirect subsidiary of Wienerberger AG.
