Assignment and Subletting by Tenant Tenant may not assign its interest in this Lease or sublet the whole or any part of the Premises without the prior consent of Landlord, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Tenant shall remain primarily liable and responsible under this Lease in the event of any such assignment or sublease and shall not be released from its obligations hereunder nor shall the guaranty of the Lease by Air Industries Group be terminated or released. Any assignment of this Lease or subletting of the Premises without notification to and consent by Landlord shall not be effective as to Landlord and Landlord shall not be bound thereby. Tenant agrees that it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to a proposed sublease or assignment if: (a) The proposed assignee (“Proposed Assignee”) refuses to provide Landlord with financial statements covering a period of at least 12 months ending no earlier than six months and no later than three months prior to the effective date of the proposed assignment; (b) The Proposed Assignee shall not agree in writing to assume all of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease from and after the date of assignment; (c) Tenant or Proposed Assignee shall fail to pay to Landlord a processing fee of One Thousand Five Hundred ($1,500.00) Dollars (increased by 2% each year commencing 1/1/17) in connection with the proposed sublet or assignment of this lease; (d) Tenant shall fail to furnish Landlord with a true and correct copy of the sublease or assignment and assumption not less than thirty (30) days prior to execution for Landlord’s review and approval and a fully executed counterpart of the sublease or assignment and assumption of this Lease, as applicable, within ten (10) days after the date of the execution of same; (e) The Proposed Assignee is not solvent or is generally held in disrepute; (f) Without consent of Landlord, Tenant may assign this Lease to a corporation or other entity which is a direct or indirect subsidiary of Guarantor. (g) Without consent of Landlord Tenant may assign this Lease or the holders of the equity interests of Tenant may sell or assign such interests to a third party which acquires all or substantially all of the business then being conducted by Tenant at the Premises. (h) Without consent of Landlord, Tenant may sell or transfer a minority of its equity interests or otherwise assign or sublease to an affiliate or subsidiary of Tenant or its parent company; up to forty-nine percent (49%) of the Premises, or transfer equity interests in connection with going public. (i) Under no circumstances shall Tenant or Guarantor be released from any liability under this Lease or Guaranty.
Subleasing Without limiting City’s discretion in approving or disapproving a proposed Transfer, if and to the extent City permits Tenant to sublease the Premises, the following shall apply: (a) Prior to negotiating a sublease agreement, Tenant must submit to City a sublease proposal for City’s approval, which approval may be granted or withheld in City’s absolute and sole discretion; (b) Every sublease must be on a Standard Sublease Agreement form approved by Director, and the actual sublease must be approved by Director; (c) Each and every covenant, condition or obligation imposed upon Tenant by this Lease and each and every right, remedy or benefit afforded City by this Lease will not be impaired or diminished as a result of any sublease agreement; (d) No subtenant shall be obligated to pay to Tenant, and Tenant shall not be permitted to charge any rent, percentage rent, bonus rent, key money, administration fee, or the like, which exceeds, in the aggregate, the total sums that Tenant pays to City under this Lease for the portion of the Premises subleased by the subtenant under its sublease agreement (the “Excess Rent”). If, notwithstanding the foregoing prohibition, Tenant receives any Excess Rent, Tenant shall pay the same to City; (e) Tenant assigns to City all rent and other payments due from all subtenants under any sublease agreements; provided however, Tenant is hereby granted a license to collect rents and other payments due from subtenants under their sublease agreements until the occurrence of an Event of Default, regardless of whether a notice of that default has been given by City. At any time, at Director’s option, City may notify a subtenant of this assignment and upon such notice the subtenant will pay its rent other payments directly to City. City will credit Tenant with any rent received by City under such assignment, but the acceptance of any payment on account of rent from any subtenants as a result of an Event of Default will in no manner whatsoever serve to release Tenant from any liability under this Lease. No payment of rent or any other payment by a subtenant directly to City or other acceptance of such payments by City, regardless of the circumstances or reasons therefor, will in any manner whatsoever be deemed an attornment by the subtenants to City in the absence of either a specific written agreement signed by City to such an effect.
Demise Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Lease, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the Premises.
SUBLETTING The Tenant shall not be able to sublet the Premises without the written consent from the Landlord. The consent by the Landlord to one subtenant shall not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent subtenant.
ASSIGNMENT & SUBLETTING A. Lessor shall have the right to sell, convey or mortgage all, but not less than all, of the Properties or to assign its right, title and interest as Lessor under this Lease in whole, but not in part; provided, however, the prohibition on Lessor's right to sell, convey or mortgage less than all of the Properties shall not restrict Lessor's right to convey Properties to Lessee pursuant to the provisions of Sections 21.B, 23.A(ix), 57 or 58 hereof. In the event of any such sale or assignment other than a security assignment, provided Lessee receives written notice that such purchaser or assignee has assumed all of Lessor's obligations under this Lease, Lessee shall attorn to such purchaser or assignee and Lessor shall be relieved, from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, of liability for the performance of any obligation of Lessor contained herein, except for obligations or liabilities accrued prior to such assignment or sale. B. Lessee acknowledges that Lessor has relied both on the business experience and creditworthiness of Lessee and upon the particular purposes for which Lessee intends to use the Properties in entering into this Lease. Without the prior written consent of Lessor and except as provided below: (i) Lessee shall not assign, transfer or convey this Lease or any interest therein, whether by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) no Subject Transfer shall occur; (iii) no interest in Lessee or any of the Guarantors shall be pledged, encumbered, hypothecated or assigned as collateral for any obligation of any of the Lessee Entities; and (iv) Lessee shall not sublet all or any part of any of the Properties. It is expressly agreed that Lessor may withhold or condition such consent based upon such matters as Lessor may in its reasonable discretion determine, including, without limitation, the experience and creditworthiness of any assignee, the assumption by any assignee of all of Lessee's obligations hereunder by undertakings enforceable by Lessor, the transfer to any assignee of all necessary licenses and franchises to continue operating the Properties for the purposes herein provided, receipt of such representations and warranties from any assignee as Lessor may request, including such matters as its organization, existence, good standing and finances and other matters, whether or not similar in kind. At the time of any assignment of this Lease which is approved by Lessor, the assignee shall assume all of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease pursuant to Lessor's standard form of assumption agreement. No such assignment nor any subletting of any of the Properties shall relieve Lessee of its obligations respecting this Lease or Guarantors of any of their obligations respecting the Guaranty. Any rentals owing under a sublease which are in excess of the rentals owing hereunder may be retained by Lessee unless an Event of Default has occurred, in which case, Lessor shall be entitled to receive such excess rentals applicable to the period during which such Event of Default is continuing. Any assignment, transfer, conveyance, pledge, mortgage or subletting in violation of this Section shall be voidable at the sole option of Lessor. C. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 26.B, Lessor's consent to a Subject Transfer shall not be required if each of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Lease as of the date on which Lessee gives the Subject Transfer Notice (as hereinafter defined) and as of the date on which such Subject Transfer is consummated; (ii) after giving effect to such Subject Transfer, whether as a single transaction or as a series of transactions, the Lessee Entities, including any surviving entity as a result of such Subject Transfer and/or successor of Lessee or any of the Guarantors, shall have a consolidated net worth determined in accordance with GAAP of not less than the sum of (1) $29,690,500.00, plus (2) fifty (50%) percent of Net Income, if positive, for each fiscal quarter of the Lessee Entities ending after the Effective Date (i.e., exclusive of any negative Net Income for any such fiscal quarter) determined on a cumulative basis subsequent to the Effective Date, plus (3) seventy-five (75%) percent of the proceeds of any issuance of equity securities of any of the Lessee Entities or other contributions to the capital of any of the Lessee Entities subsequent to the Effective Date (the "Net Worth Condition"); (iii) Lessee and Guarantors, including any surviving entity as a result of such Subject Transfer and/or successor of Lessee or any of the Guarantors, shall not be released from any of their respective obligations under this Lease and the Guaranty, and any such surviving entity or successor entity, as applicable, has assumed in writing or by operation of law (provided Lessor has received a satisfactory opinion of counsel confirming that such assumption will occur by operation of law) all obligations of Lessee under this Lease or Guarantors under the Guaranty, as applicable; (iv) after giving effect to such Subject Transfer, whether as a single transaction or as a series of transactions, the Lessee Entities shall have a Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as hereinafter defined) determined as of the end of Lessee's most recently closed fiscal quarter on a proforma basis after giving effect to such Subject Transfer of at least equal to 1.50:1 (the "Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Condition") (v) after such Subject Transfer, the Properties will be operated as a Permitted Facility or such other nationally or regionally recognized casual dining concepts reasonably acceptable to Lessor; (vi) the Lessee Entities, including any surviving entity as a result of such Subject Transfer and/or successor of Lessee or any of the Guarantors, shall have at least 5 years' experience operating a multi-unit casual dining restaurant concept with the same or greater number of units as are operated by the Lessee Entities immediately prior to the consummation of such Subject Transfer; (vii) if and to the extent that the loans contemplated by the Loan Documents have been subject to a Securitization, Lender shall have received a notice or confirmation of the rating agencies which have issued ratings in connection with such Securitization that such Subject Transfer will not cause any of such rating agencies to downgrade, modify, withdraw or qualify any of such ratings (the "Rating Agency Condition"); and (viii) Lessee shall have delivered to Lessor a certification that all of the conditions to such Subject Transfer set forth in this Section 26.C have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Lessee is unable to satisfy the Net Worth Condition, the Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Condition and/or the Rating Agency Condition, such conditions shall be deemed satisfied if Lessee shall (1) pay to Lessor the Subject Transfer Rent Prepayment Amount (as hereinafter defined), and (2) pay to Lessor the Prepayment Charges payable by Lessor to Lender as a result of the payment of the Subject Transfer Rent Prepayment Amount. Upon Lessee's payment of the Subject Transfer Rent Prepayment Amount and Prepayment Charges as contemplated by the preceding sentence, Lessor agrees that the Base Monthly Rental beginning with the calendar month immediately following the month in which such payment is made (or, if such payment is made on the first day of a calendar month, beginning with the calendar month in which such payment is made) shall be equal to the Base Monthly Rental then in effect reduced by the Subject Transfer Rent Reduction Amount (as hereinafter defined) For purposes of this Section 26.C, the following terms shall be defined as set forth below:
Assignments and Subletting The Tenant shall not assign, mortgage or otherwise encumber or transfer this Lease or sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof without having obtained the Landlord's prior written consent. The Landlord may withhold its consent arbitrarily to a proposed assignment of this Lease or sublease of the Leased Premises or any part thereof if it elects to exercise its right of termination hereinafter set forth. If such termination right is not exercised, the Landlord covenants not to withhold its consent unreasonably as to any assignee or sublessee who is in satisfactory financial condition, agrees to use the Leased Premises for the purposes and in the manner permitted and specified hereunder, and is otherwise satisfactory to the Landlord. No partial assignment shall be permitted. The Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof unless: a) it shall have received or procured a bona fide written offer to take an assignment or sublease which is not inconsistent with this Lease, and the acceptance of which would not breach any provision of this Lease; and b) it shall have first requested and obtained the consent in writing of the Landlord thereto. Any request for consent shall be in writing and accompanied by a true copy of the offer, all information available to the Tenant and requested by the Landlord as to the responsibility, financial standing and business of the proposed assignee or subtenant and payment of such amount as the Landlord reasonably requires to reimburse it for its time and expense in considering the request for consent. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a), within 10 days after the receipt by the Landlord of such request for consent and of all information which the Landlord shall have requested hereunder, the Landlord shall have the right upon written notice of termination submitted to the Tenant, if the request is to assign this Lease or sublet the Leased Premises, to cancel and terminate this Lease as of a termination date to be stipulated in the notice of termination which shall be not less than 60 days or more than 90 days following the giving of such notice. In such event the Tenant shall surrender the Leased Premises in accordance with such notice of termination and rent and additional rent shall be apportioned and paid to the date of surrender. If such consent shall be given, the Tenant shall assign or sublet, as the case may be, only upon the terms set out in the offer submitted to the Landlord. No assignment or subletting of this Lease shall be effective unless the assignee or sublessee shall execute an assumption agreement on the Landlord's form, prepared at the expense of the Tenant, assuming all the obligations of the Tenant hereunder. The Tenant agrees that any consent to an assignment or subletting of this Lease or Leased Premises shall not thereby release the Tenant of its obligations hereunder. The consent by the Landlord to an assignment or subletting, if granted, shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for the Tenant to obtain the prior written consent of the Landlord to a subsequent assignment or subletting. Without limitation, the Tenant shall for the purpose of this Lease be considered to assign or sublet in any case where it permits the Leased Premises or any portion thereof to be, or the Leased Premises or any portion thereof are, occupied by persons other than the Tenant, its employees and others engaged in carrying on the business of the Tenant, whether pursuant to assignment, subletting, parting with or sharing possession, license or other right, or where any of the foregoing occurs by operation of law.
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.
Sublease Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant and Subtenant hereby subleases from Sublandlord for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the conditions set forth herein, the Subleased Premises.
Subletting Assignment Check the appropriate box to allow or deny the tenant to sublet the dwelling unit. If a landlord is allowing the tenant to sublet, it is important to indicate the number of days the tenant must notify the landlord of the subtenant’s contact information.
Subleases of Tenant Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, as set forth in this Article 19, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord’s sole discretion, succeed to Tenant’s interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements. In the event of Landlord’s election to succeed to Tenant’s interest in any such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.
