For avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed that if Landlord does not deliver such notice, then from and after the later of (X) the Expiration Date or (Y) when Tenant shall have vacated the Leased Property in accordance with the requirements of this Lease, Landlord shall have no right in or to any of the Successor Assets, and the lien granted to Landlord in Tenant’s Pledged Property pursuant to Section 6.3 of this Lease shall terminate.
