(b) The approval of any other Governmental Authority and receipt of the Consents required for the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby shall have been obtained free of any terms, conditions or restrictions that are reasonably unacceptable to Buyer and remain in full force
and effect and all applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act shall have expired or been terminated.
4.5 Litigation. There shall not be in effect any order, injunction or decree at law or in equity or by or before any governmental or
administrative instrumentality or other agency of competent authority, or before any court or similar tribunal of competent authority, which enjoins, prohibits

and/or the Shareholders under this Agreement. If for any reason Closing does not occur hereunder, Buyer agrees to provide to the Shareholders, at no expense
to SICC or the Shareholders, copies of any Phase I Environmental Assessments obtained hereunder.
