�TREE PRESERVATION RIDER

The Gillette Company ("Gillette") and the Property Owner(s) identified
below have entered into a Property Restoration Agreement on
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ to allow Gillette to remove certain soils from the property
located at 52 Elm Street (the "Property") and restore the Property in
accordance with an Interim Remedial Measure Work Plan approved by the
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC"), in
consultation with the New York State Department of Health. The IRM
requires Gillette to remove soils containing inorganic mercury above the site
clean-up level of 4.8 mg/kg from the Property and replace it with acceptable
soil. Removal of all soils from the Property identified for removal in the IRM
requires removal of certain mature trees. The IRM, as approved by the
NYSDEC, allows mature trees to be excluded from soil excavations in
accordance with the Tree Preservation Plan in instances where individual
property owners do not consent to the removal of mature trees on their
property.
The Property Owner has been made aware that the NYSDEC has
identified the Property for removal of soils in accordance with the IRM. As a
result of deciding to preserve a tree, the Property Owner understands that
inorganic mercury in concentrations greater than the site clean-up level of
4.8 mg/kg could be left in place in tree root zones, as identified in the Tree
Preservation Plan. Soils remaining in tree root zones with inorganic mercury
concentrations above 4.8 mg/kg will be documented in a report and provided
to the Property Owner. The Property Owner understands that New York law
requires the Property Owner to disclose all environmental sampling data,
including this report, to prospective buyers. The Property Owner has elected
to forego complete remediation of the Property and instead to preserve
certain mature trees on the Property, pursuant to the Tree Preservation Plan.
The Property Owner and Gillette agree that Gillette shall perform the
soil removal and restoration work on the Property in accordance with the
Property Restoration Agreement while preserving certain mature trees on the
Property.
In signing this Tree Preservation Rider, the Property Owner expressly
agrees to waive, release, and hold Gillette harmless from any claim,
damages, suit or liability arising from maintenance and/or preservation of
any tree on the Property that would otherwise have been removed in
accordance with the IRM and left to remain on the Property under this Tree
Preservation Rider and the Tree Preservation Plan.
