Consent of Landlord Tenant shall not assign this Lease, or sublet the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to sublet up to fifty percent (50%) of the total rentable square feet contained within the Leased Premises without the necessity of obtaining Landlord's prior consent and without releasing the Tenant from liability under this Lease. Prior to any sublease or assignment, Tenant shall first notify Landlord in writing of its election to sublease all or a portion of the Leased Premises or to assign this Lease or any interest hereunder, and shall provide Landlord current financial information and other information requested by Landlord regarding the proposed assignee or subtenant. At any time within fifteen (15) days after service of said notice and delivery of such information, Landlord shall notify Tenant that it consents or refuses to consent to the sublease or assignment. Landlord shall not have the right to recapture any sublease or assignment space. Any denial of such sublease or assignment by Landlord as hereinabove provided must be predicated upon a "commercially reasonable basis" for such denial. Tenant shall retain any profits paid in connection with a sublease or assignment in excess of Tenant's Base Rent obligations hereunder, which profits shall be calculated after deducting all costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the space subject to the transfer, which shall include, but not be limited to, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and the time to sublease and remodel the Leased Premises. Any assignment or subletting shall not release Tenant of its liability under this Lease nor permit any subsequent assignment, subletting or other prohibited act, unless specifically provided in such consent. Within thirty (30) days of any assignment or subletting, Tenant shall provide to Landlord executed copies of all assignment or subleasing documents.
Waiver of Landlord’s Lien To the extent permitted by Law, Lessor hereby expressly waives any and all liens (constitutional, statutory, contractual or otherwise) upon Lessee’s personal property now or hereafter installed or placed in or on the Leased Premises, which otherwise might exist to secure payment of the sums herein provided to be paid by Lessee to Lessor.
Release of Landlord If, during the term of this Lease, Landlord shall sell its interest in the Building or Complex of which the Leased Premises form a part, or the Leased Premises, then from and after the effective date of the sale or conveyance, Landlord shall be released and discharged from any and all obligations and responsibilities under this Lease, except those already accrued.
LIABILITY OF LANDLORD (a) If Landlord should sell or otherwise transfer Landlord’s interest in the Premises, Tenant agrees that Landlord shall thereafter have no liability to Tenant under this Lease or any modification or amendment thereof or extensions or renewals thereof, except for such liabilities which might have accrued prior to the date of such sale or transfer of Landlord’s interest. (b) Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if Landlord shall at any time be in default of its obligations hereunder, Tenant shall not exercise any of its remedies for such default unless Tenant shall have given Landlord written notice thereof (but Landlord shall not be deemed in default if such default cannot reasonably be cured in thirty (30) days and Landlord commences to remedy such default within said thirty (30) day period and proceeds therewith with due diligence until completion); provided, however, if Landlord’s default has created an emergency situation requiring immediate corrective action to protect property or persons from damage or injury, Tenant shall be permitted to take reasonable corrective action at Landlord’s expense prior to such notice provided Tenant has used reasonable efforts to give Landlord verbal notice and Landlord has not promptly responded. (c) If Landlord shall fail to perform any covenant, term or condition of this Lease upon Landlord’s part to be performed or if Landlord shall be liable to Tenant in any way arising out of this Lease, or pursuant to statute, law, ordinance or regulation, or under the common law, and, as a consequence, if Tenant shall recover a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment shall be satisfied only out of the Landlord’s interest in the Building and the Land and the proceeds thereof. If Landlord is an individual, a trustee of a trust or a partnership, Landlord’s obligations hereunder shall not be binding upon, nor shall there be any personal liability by, Landlord individually, the trustees of said trust, the beneficiaries of said trust, the partnership, or the partners of the partnership.
Rights of Landlord (a) Consent by Landlord to one or more assignments of this Lease, or to one or more sublettings of the Premises or any portion thereof, or collection of rent by Landlord from any assignee or sublessee, shall not operate to exhaust Landlord’s rights under this Article 11, nor constitute consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. No assignment of Tenant’s interest in this Lease and no sublease shall relieve Tenant of its obligations hereunder, notwithstanding any waiver or extension of time granted by Landlord to any assignee or sublessee, or the failure of Landlord to assert its rights against any assignee or sublessee, and regardless of whether Landlord’s consent thereto is given or required to be given hereunder. In the event of a default by any assignee, sublessee or other successor of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms or obligations of Tenant under this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against any such assignee, sublessee or other successor. In addition, Tenant immediately and irrevocably assigns to Landlord, as security for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, all rent from any subletting of all or a part of the Premises as permitted under this Lease, and Landlord, as Tenant’s assignee, or any receiver for Tenant appointed on Landlord’s application, may collect such rent and apply it toward Tenant’s obligations under this Lease; except that, until the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default by Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to collect such rent and to retain all sublease profits (subject to the provisions of Section 11.2(c), below), (b) Upon any assignment of Tenant’s interest in this Lease for which Landlord’s consent is required under Section 11.1 hereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within ten (10) days after receipt thereof by Tenant from time to time, one-half ( 1/2) of all cash sums and other economic considerations received by Tenant in connection with or as a result of such assignment, after first deducting therefrom (i) any costs incurred by Tenant for leasehold improvements (including, but not limited to, third-party architectural and space planning costs) in the Premises in connection with such assignment, amortized over the remaining term of this Lease, (ii) any real estate commissions and/or reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred by Tenant in connection with such assignment, and (iii) the unamortized cost (assuming straight-line amortization over the entire period from the Rent Commencement Date through the remainder of the initial term of this Lease) of any alterations, additions and improvements made to the Premises at Tenant’s expense and remaining in the Premises at the time of such assignment. (c) Upon any sublease of all or any portion of the Premises for which Landlord’s consent is required under Section 11.1 hereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within ten (10) days after receipt thereof by Tenant from time to time, one-half ( 1/2) of all cash sums and other economic considerations received by Tenant in connection with or as a result of such sublease, after first deducting therefrom (i) the minimum rental due hereunder for the corresponding period, prorated (on the basis of the average per-square-foot cost paid by Tenant for the Premises for the applicable period under this Lease) to reflect the size of the subleased portion of the Premises, (ii) any costs incurred by Tenant for leasehold improvements in the subleased portion of the Premises (including, but not limited to, third-party architectural and space planning costs) for the specific benefit of the sublessee in connection with such sublease, amortized over the remaining term of this Lease, (iii) any real estate commissions and/or reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred by Tenant in connection with such sublease, amortized over the term of such sublease, and (iv) amortized over the term of such sublease, the portion allocable to the sublease term of the unamortized cost (assuming straight-line amortization over the entire period from the Rent Commencement Date through the remainder of the initial term of this Lease) of any alterations, additions and improvements made to the Premises at Tenant’s expense and reasonably allocable to the subleased portion of the Premises at the time of the sublease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this paragraph (c), in no event shall the economic considerations required to be shared by Tenant with Landlord hereunder include the reasonable, good faith value of any goods or services provided by Tenant to any sublessee in connection with any subletting, including, but not limited to, any shipping, receiving, security, reception, facilities management, laboratory, repair, maintenance, utilities and other similar goods and services provided to the sublessee in excess of the goods and services provided by Landlord to Tenant under this Lease.
