Assignment or Sublease Lessee may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any interest therein, sublease any interest covered by this Agreement or encumber, hypothecate or otherwise give as security this Agreement or any interest therein without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No assignment, transfer or sublease shall be effective as against Lessor for any purpose unless Lessor shall have consented thereto in writing prior to such assignment, transfer or sublease and unless all sums due from Lessee, together with any costs to Lessor to cover reasonable legal and other expenses of Lessor in connection with such assignment, transfer or sublease, shall have been paid to Lessor. Each and every attempt to assign, transfer, sublease, encumber or hypothecate this Agreement or any interest therein in a manner contrary to that set forth herein may be deemed a default by Lessee hereunder. Lessor's consent to one assignment, transfer or sublease by Lessee or acceptance of performance from an assignee, transferee or sublessee shall not be deemed a waiver by Lessor of the restrictions of this paragraph as to subsequent attempts to assign, transfer or sublease by Lessee or Lessee's heirs, successors, assigns, transfers or sublessees. As used herein, the terms Lessor and Lessee shall be deemed to include their respective heirs, successors, assigns, transferees and sublessees. The terms, conditions and covenants contained in this Agreement shall apply to, inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors. assigns, transferees and sublessees. Nothing contained herein shall limit Lessor's right to transfer and/or assign in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, all of its rights and obligations hereunder and in the Site, and in such event Lessor shall be released from any further obligations hereunder and the successor-in-interest of Lessor shall have all the rights and obligations hereunder and in the Site with respect to Lessee.
Assignment or Subletting 25.1. Except as hereinafter provided, Tenant shall not, either voluntarily or by operation of Applicable Laws, directly or indirectly sell, hypothecate, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer this Lease, or sublet the Premises or any part hereof (each, a “Transfer”), without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent Landlord may not unreasonably withhold; provided, however, that Tenant shall have the right to assign all or any portion of its interest under this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the Premises without Landlord’s consent to any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Tenant; or any party that results from a merger or consolidation of Tenant; or any party that acquires all or substantially all of the assets or stock of Tenant (an “Allowable Transfer”). Any Transfer other than an Allowable Transfer shall be referred to herein as a “Subject Transfer”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Tenant be released from any of its obligations under this Lease.
25.2. In the event Tenant desires to effect a Transfer, then, at least twenty (20) days with respect to a sublease and at least thirty (30) days with respect to any other Transfer, but not more than ninety (90) days in any event, prior to the date when Tenant desires the Transfer to be effective (the “Assignment Date”), Tenant shall provide written notice to Landlord (the “Assignment Notice”) containing information (including references) concerning the character of the proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee; the Assignment Date; any ownership or commercial relationship between Tenant and the proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee; and the consideration and all other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, all in such detail as Landlord shall reasonably require. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by Landlord in reviewing Tenant’s request for such Transfer.
25.3. Landlord, in determining whether consent should be given to a proposed Subject Transfer, may give consideration to the financial strength of such transferee, assignee or sublessee (notwithstanding Tenant remaining liable for Tenant’s performance), and any change in use that such transferee, assignee or sublessee proposes to make in the use of the Premises. In no event shall Landlord be deemed to be unreasonable for declining to consent to a Transfer to a transferee, assignee or sublessee of poor reputation, lacking financial qualifications, seeking a change in the Permitted Use, or jeopardizing directly or indirectly the status of Landlord or any of Landlord’s affiliates as a Real Estate Investment Trust under the Code; provided that (a) Landlord agrees to reasonably evaluate any proposed transferee’s, assignee’s or sublessee’s financial qualifications and (b) Landlord may only consider such financial qualifications in the event that, were the transfer, assignment or sublease to occur, Tenant would no longer occupy any portion of the Premises.
25.4. As conditions precedent to Landlord’s consent to a Subject Transfer, Landlord may require any or all of the following:
(a) Tenant shall remain fully liable under this Lease during the unexpired Term;
(b) Tenant shall provide Landlord with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that the value of Landlord’s interest under this Lease shall not be diminished or reduced by the proposed Subject Transfer. Such evidence shall include, without limitation, evidence respecting the relevant business experience and financial responsibility and status of the proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee;
(c) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s actual costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements incurred in connection with the review, processing and documentation of such request;
(d) If a Transfer of the Premises provides for the receipt by, on behalf of or on account of Tenant of any consideration of any kind whatsoever (including, without limitation, a premium rental for a sublease or lump sum payment for an assignment, but excluding Tenant’s reasonable costs in marketing and subleasing the Premises) in excess of the rental and other charges due to Landlord under this Lease, Tenant shall pay twenty-five percent (25%) of all of such excess to Landlord, prior to deductions for any transaction costs incurred by Tenant, including marketing expenses, tenant improvement allowances, alterations, cash concessions, brokerage commissions, attorneys’ fees and free rent. If said consideration consists of cash paid to Tenant, payment to Landlord shall be made upon receipt by Tenant of such cash payment;
(e) The proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee shall agree that, in the event Landlord gives such proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee notice that Tenant is in Default under this Lease, such proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee shall thereafter make all payments otherwise due Tenant directly to Landlord, which payments shall be received by Landlord without any liability being incurred by Landlord, except to credit such payment against those due by Tenant under this Lease, and any such proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee shall agree to attorn to Landlord or its successors and assigns should this Lease be terminated for any reason; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord or its Lenders, successors or assigns be obligated to accept such attornment;
(f) Any consent to such Transfer shall be effected on Landlord’s forms;
(g) There shall exist no uncured Default or Imminent Default hereunder of which Tenant has been given notice by Landlord.
(h) Such proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee’s use of the Premises shall not require any change to the Permitted Use;
(i) Landlord shall not be bound by any provision of any agreement pertaining to the Transfer, except for Landlord’s written consent to the same;
(j) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord one executed copy of any and all written instruments evidencing or relating to the Transfer; and
(k) A list of Hazardous Materials (as defined in Section 39.7 below), certified by the proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee to be true and correct, that the proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee intends to use or store in the Premises. Additionally, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, on or before the date any proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee takes occupancy of the Premises, all of the items relating to Hazardous Materials of such proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee as described in Section 39.2.
25.5. Any Transfer that is not in compliance with the provisions of this Section 25 shall be void.
25.6. The consent by Landlord to a Transfer shall not relieve Tenant or proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee from obtaining Landlord’s consent to any further Subject Transfer, nor shall it release Tenant or any proposed transferee, assignee or sublessee of Tenant from full and primary liability under this Lease.
25.7. Notwithstanding any Transfer, Tenant shall remain fully and primarily liable for the payment of all Rent and other sums due or to become due hereunder, and for the full performance of all other terms, conditions and covenants to be kept and performed by Tenant. The acceptance of Rent or any other sum due hereunder, or the acceptance of performance of any other term, covenant or condition thereof, from any person or entity other than Tenant shall not be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions of this Lease or a consent to any Transfer.
25.8. [Intentionally omitted]
25.9. If Tenant sublets the Premises or any potion thereof, Tenant hereby immediately and irrevocably assigns to Landlord, as security for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, all rent from any such subletting, and appoints Landlord as assignee and attorney-in-fact for Tenant, and Landlord (or a receiver for Tenant appointed on Landlord’s application) may collect such rent and apply it toward Tenant’s obligations under this Lease; provided that, until the occurrence of a Default by Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to collect such rent.
Assignment; Sublease 19.1 Lessor may sell, assign or otherwise transfer all or any part of its right, title and interest in and to the Equipment and/or this Lease Agreement to a third-party assignee, subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease Agreement including, but not limited to, the right to the quiet enjoyment of the Equipment by Lessee as set forth in Section 7.1 above. Such assignee shall assume all of the rights and obligations of Lessor under this Lease Agreement and shall relieve Lessor therefrom. Thereafter, all references to Lessor herein shall mean such assignee. Notwithstanding any such sale, assignment or transfer, the obligations hereunder shall remain absolute and unconditional as set forth in Section 7.2 above.
19.2 Lessor may also pledge, mortgage or grant a security interest in the Equipment and assign this Lease Agreement as collateral. Each such pledgee, mortgagee, lienholder or assignee shall have any and all rights as may be assigned by Lessor but none of the obligations of Lessor hereunder. Any pledge, mortgage or grant of security interest in the Equipment or assignment of this Lease Agreement shall be subject to the terms and conditions hereof including, but not limited to, the right to the quiet enjoyment of the Equipment by Lessee as set forth in Section 7.1 above. Lessor, by reason of such pledge, mortgage, grant of security interest or collateral assignment, shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder which shall remain absolute and unconditional as set forth in Section 7.2 above. Upon the written request of Lessor, Lessee shall acknowledge such obligations the pledgee, mortgagee, lienholder or assignee.
19.3 LESSEE SHALL NOT SELL, TRANSFER, ASSIGN, SUBLEASE, CONVEY OR PLEDGE ANY OF ITS INTEREST IN THIS LEASE AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE EQUIPMENT, WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF LESSOR. Any such sale, transfer, assignment, sublease, conveyance or pledge, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Lessor, shall be void.
Lease Assignment To the best of Seller's knowledge, the ------------------ Tenant has not assigned its interest in the Lease or sublet any portion of the premises leased to the Tenant under the Lease.
No Assignment or Subletting Sublessee shall not assign, sell, mortgage, pledge or in any manner transfer this Sublease or any interest herein, or the term or estate granted hereby or the rentals hereunder, or sublet the Subleased Premises or any part thereof, or grant any concession or license or otherwise permit occupancy of all or any part of the Subleased Premises by any person, without the prior written consent of Sublessor and Prime Lessor; provided, however, Sublessor’s consent shall not be required in connection with an assignment or sublease pursuant to Article 16(B) of the Prime Lease). Neither the consent of Sublessor or Prime Lessor to an assignment, subletting, concession, or license, nor the references in this Sublease to assignees, subtenants, concessionaires or licensees, shall in any way be construed to relieve Sublessee of the requirement of obtaining the consent of Sublessor and Prime Lessor to any further assignment or subletting or to the making of any further assignment, subletting, concession or license for all or any part of the Subleased Premises. Notwithstanding any assignment or subletting, including, without limitation, any assignment or subletting permitted or consented to, the original Sublessee named herein and any other person(s) who at any time was or were Sublessee shall remain fully liable under this Sublease. If this Sublease is assigned, or if the Subleased Premises or any part thereof is underlet or occupied by any person or entity other than Sublessee, Sublessor may, after default by Sublessee beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, collect rent from the assignee, undertenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the rents payable by Sublessee hereunder, but no assignment, underletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions hereof, the acceptance of the assignee, undertenant or occupant as tenant, or a release of Sublessee from the further performance by Sublessee of the covenants hereunder to be performed on the part of Sublessee. Any attempted assignment or subletting without the prior written consent of Sublessor and Prime Lessor shall be void.
Assignment/Subletting Except as provided herein, Tenant shall not assign or in any manner transfer this Lease or any estate or interest hereunder and shall not sublease the Premises or any part thereof without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. As part of Tenant’s request for, and as a condition to, Landlord’s consent to such assignment or sublease, Tenant shall provide Landlord with financial statements for the proposed transferee and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request. Tenant shall not be entitled to receive monetary damages based upon a claim that Landlord unreasonably withheld its consent to a proposed transfer to a third party and Tenant’s sole remedy shall be an action to enforce any such provision through specific performance or declaratory judgment. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its actual reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such assignment or sublease request. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods, the consent of the Landlord need not be obtained if the assignment of the Lease is to a: (i) parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Tenant; (ii) company with which Tenant may merge or consolidate; (iii) corporation that acquires all or substantially all of the shares of stock or assets of Tenant; or (iv) to any corporation which is the successor corporation in the event of a corporate reorganization (a “Related Entity”); provided, however, that (i) such Related Entity does not use the Premises for any other use than the use permitted by this Lease, and (ii) with respect to an assignment to a Related Entity described in subsections (ii) and (iii), such Related Entity has a tangible net worth equal to or greater than $10,000,000.00. Landlord agrees that Tenant shall have the right, without Landlord’s consent, to sublease or license a portion of the Premises to a Related Entity described in subsection (i) above, provided that such Related Entity does not use the Premises for any other use than the use permitted by this Lease. Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of the proposed transfer, along with all applicable documentation and other information necessary for Landlord to determine that the requirements of this Section 13 have been satisfied, including if applicable, the qualification of such proposed transferee as an affiliate of Tenant or a Related Entity.
Assignment Subleasing (a) With the exception of a tenant that would render any Leased Property or a portion thereof a “tax-exempt use property” within the meaning of Section 168(h) of the Code, Tenant may assign its interest in this Lease and may sublet or grant licenses to any Leased Property in whole or in part, from time to time, without the consent of Landlord, provided that, in the case of an assignment, Lease Guarantor reaffirms its obligations under the Lease Guaranty after giving effect to such assignment. Tenant shall have no rights to mortgage or otherwise hypothecate its leasehold interest under this Lease. With respect to any assignment or sublease to an entity that is not an Affiliate of Tenant and which relates to at least 10% of the usable square feet of any Leased Property, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written summary of the material terms of such assignment or sublease prior to the commencement date thereof. For purposes of this Paragraph 17(a), the term “assignment” and “assign” shall not include any sale of the stock of Tenant, provided that (i) the Lease Guarantor reaffirms its obligations under the Lease Guaranty after giving effect to such sale and (ii) such sale does not result in an Event of Default.
(b) Each sublease or license of a Leased Property or any part thereof shall be subject and subordinate to the provisions of this Lease, and the term of each such sublease shall terminate on or before the Expiration Date. No assignment or sublease shall affect or reduce any of the obligations of Tenant hereunder, and all such obligations shall continue in full force and effect as obligations of a principal and not as obligations of a guarantor, as if no assignment or sublease had been made, provided that if Tenant assigns its interest hereunder to any entity that has acquired all, or substantially all, of Tenant’s assets, Tenant shall be relieved of all of its obligations under this Lease from and after the effective date of such assignment so long as (i) the assignee has executed the agreement referred to below in this paragraph and (ii) such sale or transfer of assets by Tenant does not result in an Event of Default. Notwithstanding any assignment or subletting, but subject to the foregoing sentence, Tenant shall continue to remain primarily liable and responsible for the payment of the Basic Rent and Additional Rent and the performance of all its other obligations under this Lease. No assignment or sublease shall impose any obligations on Landlord, except as otherwise provided in this Lease. Tenant agrees that in the case of an assignment of this Lease, Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) days after the execution and delivery of any such assignment, deliver to Landlord (i) a duplicate original of such assignment in recordable form and (ii) an agreement executed and acknowledged by Tenant and its assignee in recordable form wherein the assignee shall agree to assume and agree to observe and perform all of the terms and provisions of this Lease on the part of the Tenant to be observed and performed from and after the date of such assignment. In the case of a sublease which relates to more than 10% of the usable square feet of a Leased Property, Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) days after the execution and delivery of such sublease, deliver to Landlord a duplicate original of such sublease; with respect to each other sublease, Tenant shall provide a copy thereof to Landlord promptly after Landlord’s request therefor.
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to collect and enjoy all rents and other sums of money payable under any sublease or license of any Leased Property, and Tenant hereby irrevocably and unconditionally assigns such rents and money to Landlord, which assignment may be exercised upon and after (but not before) the occurrence of an Event of Default, provided, however, that if such Event of Default is subsequently cured and this Lease has not been terminated, Landlord shall pay to Tenant all amounts it received pursuant to such assignment that have not been applied to the obligations of Tenant hereunder.
SUBLETTING, ASSIGNMENT OR TRANSFER The Provider shall not sublet, sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of this Contract or any portion thereof, or of its right, title or interest therein, without written request to and written consent of the Contract Administrator. No subcontracts or transfer of Contract shall in any case release the Provider of its liability under this Contract.
Assignment or Sub-Contracting The terms, covenants, and conditions contained herein shall apply to and bind the heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns of the Parties.
