Hunting and the buyer have agreed to establish an environmental escrow account to pay for any potential environmental issues that may arise relating to Field Aviation's hangar facilities in Calgary.
The escrow account will remain in place until the property lease expires in 2027 or to a time when such environmental matters have been satisfactorily resolved, Hunting said.
On completion of the sale, Hunting will deposit £2.5m into this environmental escrow account.
