Landlord’s Consent Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Without limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply:
Landlord’s Consent to Alterations Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises (collectively, the “Alterations”) without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Landlord; provided, however, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion with respect to any Alterations which may adversely affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment in more than a de minimis manner (e.g., the mere tying into Systems shall not be subject to the sole discretion standard) or which can be seen from outside the Building. Tenant shall pay (i) for Alterations performed by Tenant, Landlord’s reasonable third-party costs incurred in connection with reviewing such Alterations, and (ii) for Alterations for which Tenant has engaged Landlord to supervise and Landlord’s contractors to perform, a supervision fee of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the total cost of such Alteration (for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing supervisory fee shall not be due or payable in connection with the Tenant Improvements and the Vivarium improvements and no supervisory fee shall be due or payable in connection with any capital improvements performed by Landlord). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Landlord approval shall be required (provided advance notice shall be provided to Landlord) for (a) installation, removal or realignment of furniture systems not involving any modifications to the structure or connections (other than by ordinary plugs or jacks) to the Systems, (b) Alterations which could not reasonably be expected to affect the structural components of the Building or the Systems and Equipment and which cost less than $150,000 for any one (1) job and no more than $300,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year during the Lease Term (excluding any costs for painting, carpeting, and similar purely cosmetic work), (c) Alterations which do not require a building permit, and (d) merely cosmetic work (such as painting and carpeting). The construction of the initial improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Tenant Work Letter and not the terms of this Article 8.
Landlord’s Consent Required Subject to the remaining provisions of this Article 11, but notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant shall not assign, transfer or encumber any interest in this Lease (either absolutely or collaterally) or sublease or allow any third party to use any portion of the Premises (collectively or individually, a “Transfer”) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limitation, Tenant agrees that Landlord’s consent shall not be considered unreasonably withheld if: (1) the proposed transferee’s financial condition does not meet the criteria Landlord uses to select Building tenants having similar leasehold obligations; (2) the proposed transferee is a governmental organization or present occupant of the Property, or Landlord is otherwise engaged in lease negotiations with the proposed transferee for other premises in the Property; (3) any uncured event of default exists under this Lease (or a condition exists which, with the passage of time or giving of notice, would become an event of default); (4) any portion of the Building or Premises would likely become subject to additional or different Laws as a consequence of the proposed Transfer; (5) the proposed transferee’s use of the Premises conflicts with the Permitted Use or any exclusive usage rights granted to any other tenant in the Building; (6) the use, nature, business, activities or reputation in the business community of the proposed transferee (or its principals, employees or invitees) does not meet Landlord’s standards for Building tenants; (7) either the Transfer or any consideration payable to Landlord in connection therewith adversely affects the real estate investment trust qualification tests applicable to Landlord or its Affiliates; or (8) the proposed transferee is or has been involved in litigation with Landlord or any of its Affiliates. Tenant shall not be entitled to receive monetary damages based upon a claim that Landlord unreasonably withheld its consent to a proposed Transfer and Tenant’s sole remedy shall be an action to enforce any such provision through specific performance or declaratory judgment. Any attempted Transfer in violation of this Article is voidable at Landlord’s option.
Consent to Assignment Pursuant to Section 8 of the Agreement, AWLH hereby consents to (a) the transfer described in Recital B above of BFINA’s interest in the Partnership to AWSH and (b) the admission of AWSH as a substituted limited partner.
Alterations by Landlord Landlord may from time to time:
Seller's Consent to Assignment The Seller hereby acknowledges the Purchaser's right to assign, transfer and convey all of the Purchaser's rights under this Agreement to a third party and that the representations and warranties made by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement will, in the case of such assignment, transfer and conveyance, be for the benefit of such third party. The Seller hereby consents to such assignment, transfer and conveyance.
LESSOR'S CONSENT REQUIRED (a) Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage or otherwise transfer or encumber (collectively, "assign") or sublet all or any part of Lessee's interest in this Lease or in the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent given under and subject to the terms of Paragraph 36.
Subletting Tenant shall not sublet any or all of the Property without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be withheld by Landlord in its sole discretion and any such purported subletting shall be void; provided, however, that Tenant may, without Landlord’s consent, sublet to an Affiliate of Tenant (a “Sublease” and each subtenant thereunder, a “Subtenant”) so long as each Sublease contains the following provisions: (i) the Sublease is subject and subordinate to this Lease; (ii) the Sublease shall not contain any terms inconsistent with this Lease (or if so, the terms of this Lease shall control); (iii) the rent due under any Sublease shall be fixed rent and shall not be based on the net profits of any Subtenant; (iv) the Sublease shall terminate upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease (including any renewals hereof); (v) Tenant shall at all times remain liable under this Lease irrespective of any Sublease; (vi) the related Property shall be used and occupied only as a Permitted Facility; and (vii) shall not (A) be for a term of more than one year, provided it may auto-renew on a year-to-year (or shorter) basis, so long as not more than 90 days’ prior written notice is required to terminate the such Sublease prior to the applicable auto-renewal, or (B) be for a term of more than three years but shall be terminable by Tenant upon 90 days' notice with or without cause. Tenant covenants and agrees that: (A) Tenant shall observe and timely perform all of its obligations as the landlord or sublandlord under each Sublease in compliance with the terms thereof; (B) Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with any notice of default received from Tenant by any Subtenant or any notice of default sent by Tenant to any Subtenant; (C) Tenant shall furnish Landlord with any and all information requested by Landlord reasonably necessary for a determination of the status of any Sublease; (D) Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of each Sublease and any amendments thereto within five (5) Business Days of execution thereof; and (E) Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless all Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses incurred in connection with any such Sublease.
Assignment and Subletting by Tenant 7.1.1 Tenant shall not have the right to assign, transfer, mortgage or encumber this Lease in whole or in part, nor sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, nor allow the occupancy of all or any part of the Premises by another, without first obtaining Landlord’s consent, which consent may be granted or denied in accordance with this paragraph. In no event shall the determination of the amount of rent be expressed in whole or in part as a percentage of the income or profits derived by the subtenant from the space leased (other than an amount based on a fixed percentage or percentages of gross receipts or gross sales). Notwithstanding any permitted assignment or subletting, Tenant shall at all times remain directly, primarily and fully responsible and liable for the payment of all sums payable under this Lease and for compliance with all of its other obligations as tenant under this Lease. Landlord’s acceptance of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other sum from any assignee, sublessee, transferee, mortgagee or encumbrance holder shall not be deemed to be Landlord’s approval of any such conveyance. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, if the Premises or any part of the Premises are then subject to an assignment or subletting, Landlord may, at its option, collect directly from such assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due to Tenant under such assignment or sublease and apply such rents against any sums due to Landlord from Tenant under this Lease. No such collection shall be construed to constitute a novation or release of Tenant from the further performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Landlord’s right of direct collection shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights and remedies provided for in this Lease or at law. Tenant makes an absolute assignment to Landlord of such assignments and subleases and any rent, Lease Security Deposits and other sums payable under such assignments and subleases as collateral to secure the performance of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease.
TRANSFER BY LANDLORD Landlord and its successors in interest shall have the right to transfer their interest in the Building, the Property, or any portion thereof at any time and to any person or entity. In the event of any such transfer, the Landlord originally named herein (and in the case of any subsequent transfer, the transferor), from the date of such transfer, (i) shall be automatically relieved, without any further act by any person or entity, of all liability for the performance of the obligations of the Landlord hereunder which may accrue after the date of such transfer and (ii) shall be relieved of all liability for the performance of the obligations of the Landlord hereunder which have accrued before the date of transfer if its transferee agrees to assume and perform all such prior obligations of the Landlord hereunder. Tenant shall attorn to any such transferee. After the date of any such transfer, the term "Landlord" as used herein shall mean the transferee of such interest in the Building or the Property.
