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.
Existing Lease (a) The Port Authority and the Lessee's predecessor in interest, The First Boston Corporation, have heretofore entered into an agreement of lease dated as of May 10, 1979, and identified by Port Authority Lease No. WT-2209-N-6 (1497), which agreement of lease, as the same has been heretofore supplemented and amended, is hereinafter called the "Existing Lease".
(b) Effective as of 11:59 o'clock P.M. on December 31, 1998 (which date and hour is hereinafter referred to as the "Existing Lease Surrender Date"), the Lessee hereby surrenders and yields up and does by these presents grant, bargain, sell, surrender and yield up to the Port Authority, its successors and assigns, forever the entire premises under the Existing Lease (such premises under the Existing Lease being hereinafter referred to as the "Existing Premises") and the term of years with respect thereto under the Existing Lease yet to come, and has given, granted and surrendered and by these presents does give, grant and surrender to the Port Authority, its successors and assigns, all the rights, rights of renewal, licenses, privileges and options of the Lessee granted by the Existing Lease with respect to the Existing Premises, all to the intent and purpose that the said term under the Existing Lease and the said rights of renewal, licenses, privileges and options may be wholly merged, extinguished and determined on the Existing Lease Surrender Date with the same force and effect as if the said term were in, and by the provisions of the Existing Lease originally fixed to expire on such date and further to the extent and purpose that all obligations and rights of the parties under the Existing Lease end on the Existing Lease Surrender Date except for accrued obligations which are unpaid or unsatisfied thereunder on such Existing Lease Surrender Date.
(c) The Lessee shall not be required to remove or change any of the construction or installation work performed, or any improvements made, in the Existing Premises, or to remove therefrom any furniture, equipment, signs, inventories, trade fixtures and/or other personal property of the Lessee or for which the Lessee is responsible as of the Existing Lease Surrender Date. The Lessee's continued occupancy of the Existing Premises after the Existing Lease Surrender Date pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed delivery by the Lessee to the Port Authority of the Existing Premises for the purposes of paragraph (b) of this Section.
(d) The Lessee shall have the non-exclusive right, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to continue to use, maintain and replace for the term of the letting hereunder all ducts and conduits it was permitted to use under the Existing Lease solely for the purposes it was permitted to use same for its operations under the Existing Lease.
Operating Lease (i) Each Borrower shall (a) promptly perform and observe all of the covenants required to be performed and observed by it under the Operating Leases and do all things necessary to preserve and to keep unimpaired its material rights thereunder; (b) promptly notify Lender of any material default under any Operating Lease of which it is aware; (c) promptly deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of default or other material notice under any Operating Lease delivered to any Operating Lessee by Borrower; (d) promptly give notice to Lender of any notice or information that Borrower receives which indicates that an Operating Lessee is terminating its Operating Lease or that any Operating Lessee is otherwise discontinuing its operation of the applicable Individual Property; and (e) promptly enforce the performance and observance of all of the material covenants required to be performed and observed by the Operating Lessee under the applicable Operating Lease.
(ii) If at any time, (A) an Operating Lessee shall become insolvent or a debtor in a bankruptcy proceeding or (B) Lender or its designee has taken title to an Individual Property by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, has become a mortgagee-in-possession, has appointed a receiver with respect to the applicable Individual Property or has otherwise taken title to such Individual Property, Lender shall have the absolute right to (and Borrower and Operating Lessee shall reasonably cooperate and not in any way hinder, delay or otherwise interfere with Lender’s right to), immediately terminate the applicable Operating Lease under and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Subordination, Attornment and Security Agreement.
(iii) Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld: (a) surrender, terminate or cancel any Operating Lease or otherwise replace any Operating Lessee or enter into any other operating lease with respect to any Individual Property, provided, however, at the end of the term of each Operating Lease, the applicable Borrower may renew such Operating Lease or enter into a replacement Operating Lease with Operating Lessee on substantially the same terms as the expiring Operating Lease except that Lender shall have the right to approve any material change thereto; (b) reduce or consent to the reduction of the term of any Operating Lease; or (c) enter into, renew, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, reduce Rents under, or shorten the term of any Operating Lease.
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.
Reciprocal Easement Agreements (a) Neither Borrower, nor any other party is currently in default (nor has any notice been given or received with respect to an alleged or current default) under any of the terms and conditions of the REA, and the REA remains unmodified and in full force and effect;
(b) All easements granted pursuant to the REA which were to have survived the site preparation and completion of construction (to the extent that the same has been completed), remain in full force and effect and have not been released, terminated, extinguished or discharged by agreement or otherwise;
(c) All sums due and owing by Borrower to the other parties to the REA (or by the other parties to the REA to the Borrower) pursuant to the terms of the REA, including without limitation, all sums, charges, fees, assessments, costs, and expenses in connection with any taxes, site preparation and construction, non-shareholder contributions, and common area and other property management activities have been paid, are current, and no lien has attached on the Property (or threat thereof been made) for failure to pay any of the foregoing;
(d) The terms, conditions, covenants, uses and restrictions contained in the REA do not conflict in any manner with any terms, conditions, covenants, uses and restrictions contained in any Lease or in any agreement between Borrower and occupant of any peripheral parcel, including without limitation, conditions and restrictions with respect to kiosk placement, tenant restrictions (type, location or exclusivity), sale of certain goods or services, and/or other use restrictions; and
(e) The terms, conditions, covenants, uses and restrictions contained in each Lease do not conflict in any manner with any terms, conditions, covenants, uses and restrictions contained in the REA, any other Lease or in any agreement between Borrower and occupant of any peripheral parcel, including without limitation, conditions and restrictions with respect to kiosk placement, tenant restrictions (type, location or exclusivity), sale of certain goods or services, and/or other use restrictions.
Existing Management and Franchise Agreements Seller has furnished to Buyer true and complete copies of the Existing Management Agreement and the Existing Franchise Agreement, which constitutes the entire agreement of the parties thereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and which have not been amended or supplemented in any respect. There are no other management agreements, franchise agreements, license agreements or similar agreements for the operation or management of the Hotel or relating to the Brand, to which Seller is a party or which are binding upon the Property, except for the Existing Management Agreement and the Existing Franchise Agreement. The Improvements comply with, and the Hotel is being operated in accordance with, all requirements of such Existing Management Agreement and the Existing Franchise Agreement and all other requirements of the Existing Manager and the Franchisor, including all “brand standard” requirements of the Existing Manager and the Franchisor. The Existing Management Agreement and the Existing Franchise Agreement are in full force and effect, and shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of the Existing Management Agreement and the Existing Franchise Agreement at Closing, as provided in Article V hereof. No default has occurred and is continuing under the Existing Management Agreement or the Existing Franchise Agreement, and no circumstances exist which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default.
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.
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND FRANCHISE AGREEMENT (a) At or prior to the Closing, Seller shall terminate the Existing Management Agreement and the Existing Franchise Agreement, and Seller shall be solely responsible for all claims and liabilities arising thereunder on, prior to or following the Closing Date, except termination or similar fees, which shall be paid by Buyer. Seller shall be responsible for paying all costs related to the termination of the Existing Management Agreement and Buyer shall be responsible for paying all reasonable and actual costs of the Franchisor related to the assignment or termination, as applicable, of the Existing Franchise Agreement.
(b) At Closing, Buyer shall enter into the New Management Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit E and the New Franchise Agreement, effective as of the Closing Date, containing terms and conditions acceptable to Buyer (including, without limitation, such terms and conditions as may be required to accommodate Buyer’s and/or Buyer’s Affiliates’ REIT structure).
(c) Seller shall use best efforts to promptly provide all information required by the Franchisor in connection with the New Franchise Agreement. Prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Franchisor shall agree on the form and substance of the New Franchise Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in this Contract, the New Franchise Agreement shall contain such terms and conditions as are acceptable to Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion.
Real Estate Matters (a) Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, may order title policy Commitments (the “Commitments”) to be issued by a title company reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (the “Title Company”), accompanied by copies of all recorded documents relating to restrictions, easements, rights-of-way, and other matters affecting the Fee Owned Property or the leased Restaurant locations that are not located in lifestyle centers, office developments, condominium developments or major retail developments (the “Leased Locations”). The Commitments will commit the Title Company to issue at the Closing, ALTA form of Title Insurance Policies to Purchaser, such policies to be in an amount as determined jointly by Purchaser and the Title Company and with such endorsements as are requested by Purchaser. Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, may also obtain one of more surveys of the Fee Owned Property and the Leased Locations at Purchaser’s expense (the “Surveys”). Purchaser shall promptly, but not later than forty five (45) days following the date of this Agreement, notify the Seller in writing of objections to the condition of title set forth in the Commitments or on the Surveys which materially affect the merchantability of 1245 Properties’ title or the use of the Fee Owned Property or Seller’s use of the Leased Locations as presently utilized and do not constitute Permitted Liens (the “Title Objections”).
(b) Seller may voluntarily undertake to eliminate any and all of the Title Objections to the satisfaction of Purchaser, but the Seller is under no obligation to do so. If, however, the Seller elects not to, or cannot, eliminate the Title Objections to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser prior to the Closing Date and the Title Objections constitute a Material Adverse Effect, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement, within five (5) business days following Seller’s notice that it will not or cannot eliminate such Title Objections, pursuant to Section 9.3 hereof without further liability to Purchaser or Seller. If the Title Objections do not constitute a Material Adverse Effect, Purchaser’s obligation to close shall nevertheless remain subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 including Section 8.1(g).
(c) All title matters shown on the Commitments and the Surveys which are not the subject of Title Objections shall be deemed to be Permitted Liens. Further, if Purchaser makes any Title Objections which Seller elects not to, or cannot, cure, and Purchaser elects to proceed to Closing on the Closing Date, such Title Objections shall likewise be deemed Permitted Liens.
Property Agreements A complete list of all FF&E Leases, Service Contracts and Leases (other than those entered into by the Existing Manager on its own behalf) used in or otherwise relating to the operation and business of the Hotel is attached hereto as Exhibit C-1, and, to Seller’s knowledge, a complete list of all other FF&E Leases, Service Contracts and Leases used in or otherwise relating to the operation and business of the Hotel is attached hereto as Exhibit C-2. The assets constituting the Property to be conveyed to Buyer hereunder constitute all of the property and assets of Seller used in connection with the operation and business of the Hotel. There are no leases, license agreements, leasing agent’s agreements, equipment leases, building service agreements, maintenance contracts, suppliers contracts, warranty contracts, operating agreements, or other agreements (i) to which Seller is a party or an assignee, or (ii) to Seller’s knowledge, binding upon the Hotel, relating to the ownership, occupancy, operation, management or maintenance of the Real Property, FF&E, Supplies or Tradenames, except for those Service Contracts, Leases, Warranties and FF&E Leases disclosed on Exhibit C or to be delivered to Buyer pursuant to Section 3.1. The Service Contracts, Leases, Warranties and FF&E Leases disclosed on Exhibit C or to be delivered to Buyer pursuant to Section 3.1 are in full force and effect, and no default has occurred and is continuing thereunder and no circumstances exist which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default. No party has any right or option to acquire the Hotel or any portion thereof, other than Buyer.
