Neither the written consent of Landlord to the presence of the Hazardous Materials, nor Tenant's compliance with all laws applicable to such Hazardous Materials, shall relieve Tenant of its indemnification obligation under this Lease. Landlord shall have the right from time to time, but not the obligation, to # request from Tenant information showing Tenant’s compliance with its obligations under Section 9.2; and # to enter upon the Premises in accordance with Article XIV to conduct such inspections and undertake such sampling and testing activities as Landlord deems necessary or desirable to determine whether Tenant is in compliance with its obligations under Section 9.2, except that in no event may Landlord sample or test tenant raw materials, lab materials, products or processes, except with the prior written consent of Tenant, which consent may be withheld if commercially reasonable alternative means exist to assure Tenant compliance.
