Tenant, its successors, assigns, agents, servants, employees and invitees shall not: (i) conduct, or permit to be conducted, any activity, including, but not limited to, the dumping or storage of Hazardous Substance, on the Premises and/or the Building, which would give rise to a lien pursuant to the provisions of Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 2 IE (Massachusetts Oil and Hazardous Materials Release Prevention Act); and (ii) generate, store, manufacture, refine, transport, treat, dispose of or otherwise permit to be present on or about the Premises or the Building, any Hazardous Substances, except for customary amounts of cleaning solutions which shall be used in accordance with applicable laws.
It is understood and agreed that the provisions contained in this Section 13.1 shall be applicable notwithstanding the fact that any substance shall not be deemed to be a Hazardous Substance at the time of its use by Tenant, but shall thereafter be deemed to be a Hazardous Substance.
Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all costs, expenses, claims and liabilities whatsoever from the default of this Section 13.1 by Tenant, its agents, contractors or employees; and from any and all damages, liabilities or losses which Landlord may suffer, directly or indirectly, including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees, as a result of any claims, demands, costs or judgments against the Landlord, in any manner arising out of Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 13.1.
(c) Landlord represents and warrants that, to the best of Landlord’s knowledge, the Premises are free of all Hazardous Substances. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall have no obligation to make any repairs, alterations or improvements to the Premises, or incur any costs or expenses whatsoever, as a result of Hazardous Substances in or about the Premises, the Building or the Land, other than those Hazardous Substances brought onto such areas by Tenant, its agents, employees, and contractors.
Landlord shall be solely responsible for any changes to the Premises relating to Hazardous Substances, unless those Hazardous Substances were brought onto the Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees, and contractors.
Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against all liabilities, costs, damages and expenses which Tenant may incur (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) as the result of a breach of Landlord’s representation and warranty set forth in this paragraph, or the presence of Hazardous Substances in or about the Premises, the Building or the Land, unless those Hazardous Substances were brought onto such areas by Tenant, its agents, employees, and contractors.
13.2 NON-SUBROGATION. Insofar as, and to the extent that, the following provisions may be effective without invalidating or making it impossible to secure insurance coverage obtainable from responsible insurance companies doing business in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (even though extra premium may result therefrom) and notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant mutually agree that, with respect to any hazard which is covered by insurance that each of Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, is required to carry under this Lease, the one required to carry such insurance and suffering such loss, releases the other, and its officers, directors, employees and agents, of and from any and all claims, liability or responsibility (to the other or anyone claiming through or under them by way of subrogation or otherwise) for any loss or damage to property which could be covered by such required insurance, even if such fire or other casualty shall have been caused by the fault or negligence of the other party, or anyone for whom such party may be responsible. Landlord and Tenant mutually agree that their respective insurance companies shall have no right of subrogation against the other on account thereof.
