Assignment by Lessor The terms and conditions of each Schedule have been fixed by Lessor in order to permit Lessor to sell and/or assign or transfer its interest or grant a security interest in each Schedule and/or the Equipment to a Secured Party or Assignee. In that event, the term Lessor will mean the Assignee and any Secured Party. However, any assignment, sale, or other transfer by Lessor will not relieve Lessor of its obligations to Lessee and will not materially change Lessee's duties or materially increase the burdens or risks imposed on Lessee. The Lessee consents to and will acknowledge such assignments in a written notice given to Lessee. Lessee also agrees that:
(a) The Secured Party will be entitled to exercise all of Lessor's rights, but will not be obligated to perform any of the obligations of Lessor. The Secured Party will not disturb Lessee's quiet and peaceful possession and unrestricted use of the Equipment so long as Lessee is not in default and the Secured Party continues to receive all Rent payable under the Schedule; and
(b) Lessee will pay all Rent and all other amounts payable to the Secured Party, despite any defense or claim which it has against Lessor. Lessee reserves its right to have recourse directly against Lessor for any defense or claim;
(c) Subject to and without impairment of Lessee's leasehold rights in the Equipment, Lessee holds the Equipment for the Secured Party to the extent of the Secured Party's rights in that Equipment.
Assignment by Lessee Lessee may transfer or assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the consent of Operator but shall deliver to Operator written notice of such transfer or assignment not less than ten (10) days prior to the effective date thereof; provided, however, in the event of the assignment of this Agreement to a party that is not an Affiliate, Operator shall have the right to terminate this Agreement within 15 days after receipt of written notice of such assignment, which termination will be effective within 30 days of Lessee’s receipt of such termination notice. Any transfer or assignment of this Agreement by Lessee shall include an express assumption by the transferee or assignee of Lessee’s obligations hereunder. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require Lessee to assign or attempt to assign this Agreement to any third party, including any buyer of a Hotel.
Assignment by Landlord Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in part, all its rights and obligations hereunder, in the Premises, and in such event and upon such transfer no further liability or obligation shall thereafter accrue against Landlord hereunder.

ASSIGNMENT & SUBLETTING A. Lessor shall have the right to sell, convey or mortgage all, but not less than all, of the Properties or to assign its right, title and interest as Lessor under this Lease in whole, but not in part; provided, however, the prohibition on Lessor's right to sell, convey or mortgage less than all of the Properties shall not restrict Lessor's right to convey Properties to Lessee pursuant to the provisions of Sections 21.B, 23.A(ix), 57 or 58 hereof. In the event of any such sale or assignment other than a security assignment, provided Lessee receives written notice that such purchaser or assignee has assumed all of Lessor's obligations under this Lease, Lessee shall attorn to such purchaser or assignee and Lessor shall be relieved, from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, of liability for the performance of any obligation of Lessor contained herein, except for obligations or liabilities accrued prior to such assignment or sale.

Lessee acknowledges that Lessor has relied both on the business experience and creditworthiness of Lessee and upon the particular purposes for which Lessee intends to use the Properties in entering into this Lease. Without the prior written consent of Lessor and except as provided below: (i) Lessee shall not assign, transfer or convey this Lease or any interest therein, whether by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) no Subject Transfer shall occur; (iii) no interest in Lessee or any of the Guarantors shall be pledged, encumbered, hypothecated or assigned as collateral for any obligation of any of the Lessee Entities; and (iv) Lessee shall not sublet all or any part of any of the Properties.

At the time of any assignment of this Lease which is approved by Lessor, the assignee shall assume all of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease pursuant to Lessor's standard form of assumption agreement. No such assignment nor any subletting of any of the Properties shall relieve Lessee of its obligations respecting this Lease or Guarantors of any of their obligations respecting the Guaranty. Any rentals owing under a sublease which are in excess of the rentals owing hereunder may be retained by Lessee unless an Event of Default has occurred, in which case, Lessor shall be entitled to receive such excess rentals applicable to the period during which such Event of Default is continuing. Any assignment, transfer, conveyance, pledge, mortgage or subletting in violation of this Section shall be voidable at the sole option of Lessor.
C. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 26.B, Lessor's consent to a Subject Transfer shall not be required if each of the following conditions are satisfied:

(iii) Lessee and Guarantors, including any surviving entity as a result of such Subject Transfer and/or successor of Lessee or any of the Guarantors, shall not be released from any of their respective obligations under this Lease and the Guaranty, and any such surviving entity or successor entity, as applicable, has assumed in writing or by operation of law (provided Lessor has received a satisfactory opinion of counsel confirming that such assumption will occur by operation of law) all obligations of Lessee under this Lease or Guarantors under the Guaranty, as applicable;
(iv) after giving effect to such Subject Transfer, whether as a single transaction or as a series of transactions, the Lessee Entities shall have a Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as hereinafter defined) determined as of the end of Lessee's most recently closed fiscal quarter on a proforma basis after giving effect to such Subject Transfer of at least equal to 1.50:1 (the "Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Condition")

(viii) Lessee shall have delivered to Lessor a certification that all of the conditions to such Subject Transfer set forth in this Section 26.C have been satisfied.

Upon Lessee's payment of the Subject Transfer Rent Prepayment Amount and Prepayment Charges as contemplated by the preceding sentence, Lessor agrees that the Base Monthly Rental beginning with the calendar month immediately following the month in which such payment is made (or, if such payment is made on the first day of a calendar month, beginning with the calendar month in which such payment is made) shall be equal to the Base Monthly Rental then in effect reduced by the Subject Transfer Rent Reduction Amount (as hereinafter defined) For purposes of this Section 26.C, the following terms shall be defined as set forth below:
