Security Deposit Letter of Credit As a condition of this Lease, in lieu of a third-party guaranty, Tenant shall, with delivery of the Lease executed by Tenant, deliver to Landlord an unconditional and irrevocable letter of credit, in a form approved by Landlord, from a commercial banking institution which is a member of FDIC with assets of more than $250,000,000.00, approved by Landlord, in the amount of $100,000.00 (“Letter of Credit”) to be held by Landlord as security for the performance by Tenant of all the covenants and obligations of Tenant set forth in this Lease. Tenant shall submit its proposed form of Letter of Credit prior to execution of the Lease for Landlord’s review and approval. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it shall keep the Letter of Credit in full force and effect throughout the Term of this Lease (and any extension or renewal thereof) and for thirty (30) days following the end thereof. In the event the term of the Letter of Credit must be renewed annually, then not less than thirty (30) days prior to any expiration date of the Letter of Credit (“Renewal Deadline”), Tenant shall provide Landlord with a replacement Letter of Credit or extension amendment. Said Letter of Credit shall contain terms whereby it can be drawn on by Landlord at sight on any date during its term on which issuer shall receive from Landlord a certification signed by Landlord stating that an Event of Default has occurred by Tenant under this Lease or that Tenant has failed to provide a replacement Letter of Credit, as required under the Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the Landlord is the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit and the proceeds thereof are not the property of the Tenant. Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to apply the proceeds against any or all amounts then due and owing by Tenant hereunder and/or against sums expended by Landlord, including attorneys fees. Such actions by Landlord do not negate Tenant’s obligations to pay Rental thereafter. Any balance left of the sum received from drawing on the Letter of Credit, after the curing of defaults and/or the payment of amounts due by Tenant, shall be held by Landlord, as beneficiary, until the earlier of the replacement of the Letter of Credit, as required below, or thirty (30) days following the end of the Term of this Lease (and any extension or renewal thereof). The original Letter of Credit or any portion of the proceeds which are not utilized by Landlord for any purpose permitted under this Lease shall be returned to the issuing banking institution within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term provided Tenant has performed all of the remaining obligations imposed upon Tenant pursuant to this Lease. In the event Landlord shall draw on any Letter of Credit provided by Tenant, Tenant shall replace same no later than thirty (30) days after the date of such drawing and, if same is not replaced, such failure shall constitute an additional Event of Default under the terms of this Lease and Landlord shall have the benefit of all remedies permitted pursuant to the terms of this Lease and the laws of the State where the Premises are located.
Transfer of Letter of Credit The Letter of Credit may be transferred and assigned in accordance with the terms of the Letter of Credit.
