Payment of Leasehold Obligations Each Borrower shall at all times pay, when and as due, its rental obligations under all leases under which it is a tenant, and shall otherwise comply, in all material respects, with all other terms of such leases and keep them in full force and effect and, at Agent’s request will provide evidence of having done so.
Ground Lease Reserved.
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE Provided there are no Events of Defaults hereunder or under the Note Agreement, as defined herein and therein, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublease all or any portion of the Demised Premises subject to the terms hereof. Tenant shall not assign this Lease without the exclusive prior written consent of Landlord and any mortgagee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may assign this Lease to any person which is a successor to Tenant as permitted by the terms of the Note Agreement. If this Lease is assigned, Lessor may collect Base Rent and Additional Rent directly from such assignee. If any part of the Demised Premises is sublet and any Event of Default exists hereunder, Landlord may collect Base Rent and Additional Rent from such subtenant. Any assignment or sublease shall require the assignee or subtenant to comply with all terms of this Lease except for any sublease term, which shall be at Tenant's discretion (but in no event extend beyond the term of this Lease), and a duplicate original of such sublease or assignment shall be delivered to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the commencement of such sublease or assignment. Any assignee shall assume, by instrument in form and content satisfactory to Landlord, the due performance of all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, including any accrued obligations at the time of the effective date of the assignment, and such assumption agreement shall state that the same is made by the assignee for the express benefit of Landlord as a third party beneficiary thereof. Each sublease permitted hereby shall be subject and subordinate to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease and to all of the rights of Landlord hereunder; and in the event this Lease shall terminate before the expiration of such sublease, the sublessee thereunder will, at Landlord's option, attorn to Landlord and waive any rights the sublessee may have to terminate the sublease or to surrender possession thereunder, as a result of the termination of this Lease. No sublease shall be permitted hereby unless as a condition to effectiveness thereof, Tenant shall have assigned to Landlord and Landlord shall have effectively assigned to mortgagee such sublease. Tenant agrees to pay on behalf of Landlord any and all costs of Landlord or otherwise occasioned by such assignment or subletting, including without limitation, the cost of any alteration, addition, improvement or other renovation or refurbishment to the Demised Premises made in connection with such assignment or subletting and any cost imposed by any governmental authority in connection with any of the foregoing. No assignment or sublease shall be made unless any guarantor of the Tenant's obligations or any party responsible for Tenant's obligations shall give its written consent to such assignment or sublease and confirm that its obligations shall not be affected by such assignment or sublease, and, provided, further, that if any modification to the Lease is proposed to be made after such assignment or sublease, then, at Landlord's or mortgagee's option, all prior assignors and sublessors, and all such obligated parties, shall be required to confirm in writing their approval of such modification, and that their obligations continue as to the Lease as so modified. No assignment or subletting under this paragraph shall relieve Tenant (or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations under the Lease or any assignee) of its obligations hereunder. Any assignment or subletting of this Lease which is not in compliance with the provisions of this paragraph shall be of no effect and void. Except as permitted hereby, Tenant shall not transfer, sublet, assign or otherwise encumber its interest in the Lease or the Demised Premises. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary and notwithstanding any consent by Landlord to any sublease of the Demised Premises, or any portion thereof, or to any assignment of this Lease or of Tenant's interest or estate in the Demised Premises, no sublessee shall assign its sublease nor further sublease the Demised Premises, or any portion thereof, and no assignee shall further assign or sublet its interest in this Lease or its interest or estate in the Demised Premises, or any portion thereof, without Landlord's prior written consent in each and every instance which consent may be withheld or delayed as above provided. No such further assignment or subleasing shall relieve Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations in this Lease contained.
Existing Leases During the period from the expiration of the Inspection Period through Closing (or earlier termination of this Agreement or default by Buyer hereunder), Seller shall not enter into new leases for portions of the Premises now vacant or for portions of the Premises which may become vacant, or enter into any amendments of any Existing Leases or consent to any renewals, extensions or expansions of Existing Leases or agree to any rental concessions (other than (i) those to which the tenant is entitled pursuant to the terms of the Existing Leases, (ii) those for which the rent is greater than the rent shown on the Rent Roll (as hereinafter defined) for the applicable unit, (iii) the following rental concessions: 10% discounts for law enforcement officers, 5% discount for teachers, 5% discount for hospital personnel, and 3% discount for senior citizens (such discounts are taken off market rent, on one year leases only and cannot be combined with any other discount or concession), so long as not more than twenty (20) new leases subject to such concessions are executed after the expiration of the Inspection Period, and (iv) those rental concessions which are paid by Seller prior to the Closing Date, and in all events using forms substantially the same as those used for the Existing Leases) without first submitting such a copy of such proposed lease or lease amendment (including any renewal, extension or expansion as to which the lessor's consent is required) to Buyer for Buyer's approval. If Buyer does not disapprove in writing such a proposed lease or amendment (or renewal, extension or expansion agreement) within five (5) business days of Buyer's receipt of a copy thereof, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the proposed lease or amendment (or renewal, extension or expansion agreement). All such new leases and modifications approved or deemed approved by Buyer (and renewals, extensions or expansions approved or deemed approved by Buyer or as to which the lessor's consent is not required), all new leases entered into prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, and the presently existing leases that are listed on Exhibit "C" hereto are collectively herein called the "Existing Leases". The termination or expiration of any of the Existing Leases prior to Closing shall not excuse Buyer from its obligation to complete Closing and to pay the full Purchase Price.
Assignment and Subleasing During the Lease Term, the Lessee may assign, sublease or transfer to any Person, at any time, in whole or in part, its right, title or interest in, to or under this Lease or any portion of the Leased Property without the prior written consent of the Lessor so long as (v) any such assignment, sublease or transfer would not subject the Lessor to a violation of laws or regulations applicable to the Lessor including those promulgated by OFAC, (w) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or, after giving effect to such assignment, sublease or transfer, would exist, (x) any such sublease is expressly subject and subordinate to this Lease, (y) Lessee remains liable for all obligations under this Lease after giving effect to any such assignment, sublease or transfer, and (z) Lessor retains all of its interests in and benefits of the Cash Collateral and receives prior certification thereof from the Lessee and such other evidence thereof as the Lessor may reasonably request. Unless and until Lessee has exercised the Early Termination Option or the Purchase Option, no sublease may have a term that extends beyond the Base Term Expiration Date. In all cases, Lessee will promptly provide Lessor copies of each such assignment, sublease or transfer. No sublease will discharge or diminish any of the Lessee’s obligations hereunder and the Lessee shall remain directly and primarily liable under the Lease with respect to the Leased Property and the Operative Documents to which it is a party. Each sublease permitted hereby shall be made and shall expressly provide in writing that it is subject and subordinate to this Lease and the rights of the Lessor hereunder, shall expressly provide for the surrender of the Leased Property by the sublessee at the election of the Lessor after an Event of Default, shall provide that such provisions may be directly enforced by the Lessor and shall provide that such sublessee expressly agrees to comply with the use restrictions set forth in Article X hereof. Notwithstanding the first paragraph of this Article XII, Lessee may not assign or transfer its rights and obligations under this Lease and the other Operative Documents unless (a) on the effective date of any such assignment and transfer, no Event of Default exists, (b) the parties enter into an assignment agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lessor, (c) all filings of or in respect of any such assignment and transfer necessary to protect the rights of the Lessor in the Leased Property and the other Operative Documents are made in a timely fashion, (d) without limiting any provisions of this Article XII, any such assignment and transfer shall include an appropriate provision for the operation, maintenance and insurance of the Leased Property in accordance with the terms hereof, (e) the Lessor shall have received opinions of counsel with respect thereto and such other matters as the Lessor may reasonably request, (f) such assignment and transfer will not result in a Material Adverse Effect, (g) such assignment and transfer will not result in the imposition of any unindemnified Taxes, (h) the Lessor shall have received such other documents and instruments and the Lessee shall take such further acts as the Lessor may reasonably request to evidence and facilitate such assignment and transfer, provided that no such document or instrument shall increase Lessee’s obligations or diminish Lessee’s rights under the Operative Documents or otherwise, and (i) such assignment and transfer will not, with respect to the Lessor, violate the use restrictions set forth in Article X hereof or Applicable Laws and provided, further that, Lessee shall provide to the Lessor not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of such assignment or transfer, such notice to identify the assignee or transferee. No such assignment and transfer will diminish or discharge any of the Lessee’s obligations under this Lease or the other Operative Documents.
Real Estate Leases (a) Neither BGH Holdings nor BRH Holdings leases any real estate. Seller does not own or lease any real estate used in connection with the businesses of BGH Holdings, BRH Holdings, or the Companies.
(b) Schedule 4.16 sets forth a list of all of the leases or rights of occupancy pursuant to which the Companies (or any of them) lease or sublease any real property or interest therein (collectively, the "Leases"), including the identification of each of the Lessors thereof and the street addresses of the real estate demised under any of the Leases (collectively, the "Leased Real Estate"). Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, one or more of the Companies is the lessee under all Leases, and no party other than one or more of the Companies has any right to possession, occupancy or use of any of the Leased Real Estate. A true and correct copy of each of the Leases has been delivered to Buyer, together with all amendments and modifications thereto, and no changes, amendments or modifications have been made thereto since the date of such delivery, except as permitted by Section 3.02 (k). Each of the Leases is valid and is in full force and effect and is binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms except to the extent such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights or by general equitable principles. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, none of the Companies is in default (after expiration of applicable cure or grace periods) under any provision of any of the Leases, the failure of which to perform would permit the lessor thereunder to terminate such Lease, and, to Seller's knowledge, no event has occurred which (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) would render any of the Companies in default under any of such provisions which default would permit the lessor thereunder to terminate such Lease. To the knowledge of Seller, BRH Holdings, BGH Holdings, or the Companies, no other party to any of the Leases is in default under any of the material commitments and obligations thereof, and no event has occurred which (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) would render any such other party in default under any of such provisions.
(c) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, the Companies are in actual possession of the Leased Real Estate. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, the Companies have good and valid title to all the leasehold estates conveyed under the Leases free and clear of all Liens except for (i) (A) those provided under the relevant lease; (B) matters shown on Schedule 4.16; and (C) defects of title, conditions, easements, covenants or restrictions, if any, none of which items referred to clauses (A), (B) or (C) above is substantial in amount, and none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially impairs or grants or evidences rights which, if exercised, would materially impair the current use of the affected property in the manner such property is currently being used by the Companies, or impairs the operations of any of the Companies; (ii) zoning or land use ordinances, none of which, to Seller's knowledge, individually or in the aggregate, materially impairs the use of the affected property in the manner such property is currently being used, or impairs the current operations of any of the Companies; and (iii) liens for taxes not yet due and payable (iv) any mortgage liens granted by any lessor under any of the Leases of the lessor's interest in the underlying real estate or the Leases. To Seller's knowledge, none of the Companies has received written notice of any violation of or non-conformity with any zoning, subdivision, wetlands or other similar law, code, rule, regulation or ordinance from any governmental authority with respect to any of the Leased Real Estate, or of any condemnation action, eminent domain proceeding or other litigation concerning any of such properties.
(d) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, the basic rent, all additional rent and all other charges and amounts payable under the Leases have been paid to date and not more than one month in advance. All work required to be performed under the Leases by the landlords thereunder or by any of the Companies have been performed, and, to the extent that any of the Companies is responsible for payment of such work, has been fully paid for, whether directly to the contractor performing such work or to such landlord as reimbursement therefor, except for items which any of the Companies is disputing in good faith (which items are set forth in Schedule 4.16).
(e) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.16, there are no brokerage commissions or finder's fees due from Seller or any of the Companies which are unpaid with regard to any of the Leases or the Leased Real Estate or which will become due at any time in the future with regard to the Leases or the Leased Real Estate.
(f) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, there have been no casualties which are reasonably likely to result in the termination of any of the Leases or the exercise of any buy-out provision contained in any of the Leases relative to damage by casualty.
(g) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.16, (i) no consent of any of the lessors under any of the Leases is required by reason of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) none of the rights of any of the Companies under any of the Leases will be impaired by the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all of such rights will be enforceable by the Companies after the Closing Date without the consent or agreement of any other party, including all rights to purchase any of the Leased Real Estate or to renew any of the Leases pursuant to options to purchase or renew contained in any of the Leases. Any lessor under any of the Leases whose consent or agreement is required is identified as such on Schedule 4.16.
Operating Leases Incur any obligation to pay rent under an operating lease in any Fiscal Year if to do so would result in the aggregate obligation of Borrower and its Subsidiaries to pay rent under all operating leases in that Fiscal Year to exceed $4,000,000.
Ground Leases For purposes of this Exhibit C, a “Ground Lease” shall mean a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner. With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a Ground Leasehold estate in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of Mortgage Loan Seller, its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ground Lease and Related Documents”), Mortgage Loan Seller represents and warrants that:
New Lease In the event that this Lease is rejected in any bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution proceeding or is terminated by Landlord following a Tenant Event of Default other than due to a default that is subject to cure by a Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee under Section 17.1(d) and Section 17.1(e) above, Landlord shall provide each Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee with written notice that this Lease has been rejected or terminated (“Notice of Termination”), and, for the avoidance of doubt, upon delivery of such Notice of Termination, no Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the rights as described in Section 17.1(d) and Section 17.1(e) above, but rather such Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee instead shall have the rights described in this Section 17.1(f)). Following any such rejection or termination, Landlord agrees to enter into a new lease (“New Lease”) of the Leased Property with such Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee or its Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee Designee for the remainder of the term of this Lease, effective as of the date of termination, at the rent and additional rent, and upon the terms, covenants and conditions (including all then-remaining options to renew but excluding requirements which have already been fulfilled) of this Lease, provided:
(i) such Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee or its Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee Designee shall comply with the applicable terms of Section 22.2;
(ii) such Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee or its Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee Designee shall make a binding, written, irrevocable commitment to Landlord for such New Lease within thirty (30) days after the date such Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee receives Landlord’s Notice of Termination of this Lease given pursuant to this Section 17.1(f);
(iii) such Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee or its Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee Designee shall pay or cause to be paid to Landlord at the time of the execution and delivery of such New Lease, any and all sums which would at the time of execution and delivery thereof be due pursuant to this Lease but for such rejection or termination (including, for avoidance of doubt, any amounts that become due prior to and remained unpaid as of the date of the Notice of Termination) and, in addition thereto, all reasonable expenses, including reasonable documented attorney’s fees, which Landlord shall have incurred by reason of such rejection or such termination and the execution and delivery of the New Lease and which have not otherwise been received by Landlord from Tenant or other party in interest under Tenant; and
(iv) such Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee or its Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee Designee shall agree to remedy any of Tenant’s defaults of which said Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee was notified by Landlord’s Notice of Termination (or in any other written notice of Landlord) and which can be cured through the payment of money or, if such defaults cannot be cured through the payment of money, are reasonably susceptible of being cured by Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee or its Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee Designee.
New Leases Continue its present rental program and efforts at such Seller’s Property to rent vacant space in accordance with past practices; provided that, without the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent may be granted or withheld in the Buyer’s sole discretion, such Seller shall not (i) execute any new lease, license or other occupancy agreement, (ii) amend, supplement, terminate, accept the surrender of, renew or otherwise modify any existing Lease, (iii) approve any assignment or sublease of any existing Lease, or (iv) waive any right or obligation thereunder; provided, however, that, in the case of any amendment, supplement, termination, surrender, renewal or modification of any existing Lease as set forth in clause (ii) above, if such existing Lease expressly and specifically sets forth the terms of any such amendment, supplement, termination, surrender, renewal or modification and requires the landlord under the Lease to acknowledge or counter-sign the same, in which case, the Buyer’s consent shall not be required, but Seller shall provide the Buyer with written notice of (and to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification modifies the rental terms of such Lease which rental amount is not specifically stated in such Lease, the Buyer shall have an opportunity to review and comment upon) such amendment, supplement, termination, surrender, renewal or modification at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of execution. If such Seller enters into any new lease, license or other occupancy agreement, or renews any existing Lease (each such new lease, license, occupancy agreement and renewal, a “New Lease”) after the date hereof in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2(d), then each such lease, license, occupancy agreement and renewal shall be included in the definition of “Leases” herein and added to Schedule 3.2(c) attached hereto, shall be assigned to and assumed by the Buyer at the Closing in accordance with this Agreement. If the Buyer does not reject or approve a new lease, license, occupancy agreement, renewal or a Lease amendment within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a copy thereof, then the Buyer shall be deemed to have approved such new lease, license, occupancy agreement, renewal or Lease amendment; provided that such notice includes specific reference to this Section 3.3(d) and the deemed approval provision hereof.
