consideration of and exchange for the United States and the State of 
Colorado's Covenant Not to Sue and Removal of Lien, Union Pacific 
agrees to pay for or perform the remedy repair and replacement work at 
the Sites and to reimburse the Environmental Protection Agency and the 
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment for their 
oversight costs incurred in oversight of such work.
