Right to Contest Taxes. If Tenant desires to initiate any proceedings to obtain an abatement or reduction of any Real Estate Taxes assessed against the Tenant’s Tax Parcel or the Center, Tenant must first notify Landlord, in writing, of its desire to pursue such action. After the notice is sent, Landlord shall have twenty (20) days to notify Tenant whether it wishes to pursue the action on its accord. Should Tenant fail to receive such written notice from Landlord within the prescribed period, Tenant may initiate and prosecute the action. In connection with any such proceeding, Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant, including the joining in, and signing of, any protest or pleading which Tenant may deem it advisable to file (but at no cost, expense or liability to Landlord). Tenant shall keep Landlord informed of the status of its tax review. If Landlord elects to initiate the proceeding, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a reduction in Real Estate Taxes. Landlord shall keep Tenant informed of the status of its tax review and not terminate or withdraw the same without Tenant’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Landlord shall also permit Tenant to present to the taxing authority any information pertaining to the basis for establishing the assessed valuation of the Premises. Landlord shall not, in any event, make application to the taxing authorities which, if granted, would change the manner in which the Premises are being, or will be, assessed, or which would have the effect of increasing the assessed valuation of the Premises, without Tenant’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In any event, if Landlord makes such application without Tenant’s consent, and as a result thereof, such Real Estate Taxes are increased, Tenant shall not be responsible for paying any increase in Real Estate Taxes on Tenant’s Tax Parcel or Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of such increase.
