In the ordinary course of their businesses, each of the Liberty Entities periodically reviews the effect of Environmental Laws on its business, operations and properties, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates costs and liabilities that are reasonably likely to be incurred pursuant to such Environmental Laws (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws, or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review, each of the Liberty Entities has reasonably concluded that, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, such associated costs and liabilities relating to the Liberty Entities would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. |
