Termination of Lease (a) Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that, effective as of the Termination Date, the Lease and the term thereof shall terminate and expire, and Tenant’s estate in and right of possession to the Premises shall terminate and be wholly extinguished, as if said Termination Date was originally set forth in the Lease as the expiration date thereunder. Effective as of the Termination Date, neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further rights or obligations under the Lease, except as provided in this Agreement. Effective as of the Termination Date, Landlord and Tenant for themselves and their predecessors-in-interest, successors and assigns, do hereby release and forever discharge each other, their successors and assigns, from all actions, causes of action, sums of money, covenants, agreements, promises, damages, judgments, claims and demands whatsoever in law or in equity which each against the other ever had, now has, or which they or their respective predecessors, successors or assigns hereafter may have, upon or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever from the beginning of the world through the Termination Date arising out of or in connection with the Lease or the Premises, or the Building; provided that (A) neither party shall be released from any of its obligations under this Agreement (and this Agreement shall survive the termination of the Lease), (B) neither Landlord or Tenant shall be released from any indemnification obligations that accrued under the Lease prior to the Termination Date and (C) the provisions of Section 8.13 and Section 8.21 of the Lease shall survive the termination of the Lease. Effective as of the Termination Date, Landlord shall be entitled to lease the Premises to any person or entity, or take any other action with respect thereto, free from any claim of Tenant or any person or entity claiming through Tenant.
(b) On or prior to the Termination Date, Tenant agrees to surrender unto Landlord and its successors and assigns, and Landlord agrees to accept, the Premises in its “as is” condition.
(c) In consideration of this Agreement and the termination of the Lease, Tenant agrees to permit the letter of credit in the amount of $8,698,662.00 issued by Citibank, N.A. (the “Letter of Credit”) which Letter of Credit Landlord is presently holding as security under the Lease, to be drawn down for the payment of the following sums: (i) $7,800,000.00 (the “Termination Fee”) to be drawn down and paid to Landlord in consideration of the termination of the Lease and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (ii) $898,662.00, representing the balance of the proceeds of the Letter of Credit shall be paid to Tenant. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to draw on the Letter of Credit and the entire proceeds of the Letter of Credit (the “Proceeds”) and Landlord agrees to deliver Tenant’s share of the Proceeds described in clause (ii) above to Tenant’s bank account within three (3) Business Days of Landlord’s receipt of the entire Proceeds in accordance with Tenant’s wire instructions attached hereto as Exhibit A. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, it is agreed that in no event shall Tenant at any time be entitled to receive any other sums from Landlord in connection with the Lease, including, without limitation, all or any portion of the Work Allowance or any reimbursement of any amounts previously paid by Tenant to Landlord in connection with the construction of the Terrace Space. Contemporaneously herewith, Landlord shall deliver a sight draft to the issuer of the Letter of Credit in order to obtain payment of the Proceeds, which sight draft shall provide for the Proceeds to be paid to Landlord’s bank account, as designated by Landlord. Tenant hereby agrees to cooperate with Landlord and execute any and all documents required by the issuing bank in order to facilitate Landlord’s efforts to draw down on the Proceeds of the Letter of Credit. The effectiveness of the surrender and termination provided for in this Agreement is subject to, and conditioned upon, Landlord’s receipt of the Termination Fee in accordance with the terms hereof. If Landlord does not receive the Termination Fee in accordance with the terms hereof, then the termination of the Lease shall automatically be null and void and of no further force or effect and the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if this Agreement had never been entered into.
(d) Tenant shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify Landlord for, any and all transfer taxes, sales taxes or other taxes or similar charges imposed by any federal, state or local governmental authority or under any Law arising from or relating to this Agreement, the Termination Fee or any of the other transactions hereunder. Tenant will execute and deliver to Landlord a New York State Form TP 584 and a New York City Form RPT.
(e) Landlord and Tenant agree that the disgorgement of any portion of the Termination Fee or the avoidance in whole or in part of this Agreement, under any applicable law, including, but not limited to, chapter 5 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"), shall be considered a breach of this Agreement by Tenant and shall entitle Landlord to seek the full amount of the Obligations and any other damages to which Landlord is entitled under the Lease from Tenant resulting from the breach of this Agreement.

In addition, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant shall not seek, or be entitled to, any abatement, deduction, deferment or reduction of the Rent, or set-off against the Rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant be otherwise affected by reason of (a) any damage to or destruction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, from whatever cause or any Condemnation, (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Tenant’s use of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or the interference with such use by any Person or by reason of eviction by paramount title; (c) any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord by reason of any default (other than a monetary default) or breach of any warranty by Landlord under this Agreement or any other agreement between Landlord and Tenant, or to which Landlord and Tenant are parties; (d) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting Landlord or any assignee or transferee of Landlord; or (e) for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing (other than a monetary default by Landlord).
