Section 21 of the Lease Agreement.
SECTION 4. RENTAL. In addition and supplemental to the rentals required
to be paid to the Authority pursuant to Section 5 of the Lease Agreement

SECTION 5. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES/WASTE. Tenant, at its own expense, may

“Hazardous Substances” are discovered during excavation for construction on the
property described in Exhibit “A”, and such “Hazardous Substances” require
special handling, removal or disposal (“Remediation”), then Tenant shall

Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. ss. 6901, et seq. (42 U.S.C ss. 6903),
or (iv) defined as “Hazardous Substance” pursuant to Section 101 of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C.
