IX
the commencement of the term of this Lease; (iii) the percentage rental that would reasonably be expected from the sales of the proposed assignee or subtenant would reasonably be expected to be less than that of TENANT. The covenants and agreements of this LEASE are both personal to LANDLORD and TENANT and covenants running with the land, and no assignment or sublease shall relieve TENANT herein f any of its obligations of this LEASE. Nothing to the contrary in this paragraph XXII withstanding, LANDLORD’S consent shall not be required for any assignment or sublease to a parent, affiliate or subsidiary of the TENANT, or in connection with the sale of all, or substantially all, of the TENANT’S assets, provided that the proposed assignee or sublease has a net worth as least as great as that of TENANT and that the proposed assignee or sublessee will continue to operate the same business in the DEMISED PREMISES. Each and every assignee or sublessee who accepts any assignment or sublease of this lease agreement and the property leased hereunder shall automatically become obligated to perform each and every covenant and agreement to be performed by TENANT under this LEASE and shall be jointly and severally liable with TENANT for the performance thereof, it being expressly understood by TENANT that its liability for any unperformed covenant or agreement shall continue despite said assignment or sublease; except that a sublease shall be obligated to perform said covenants and agreements only insofar as they relate to that part of the property subleased and the rent required by the sublease agreement. Furthermore, one consent by LANDLORD shall not be consent to any subsequent assignment, sublease or occupation by persons other than TENANT.
XXIII. | SUBORDINATION. |
TENANT agrees that it shall, and hereby does by these terms, fully, automatically, absolutely and unconditionally subordinate its rights hereunder to the lien, priority and effect of any mortgage(s) or other security instruments now or hereafter placed against LANDLORD’S (or its successor’s) interest in the Shopping Center, or alternatively, any or all of the buildings now or hereafter built or to be built in the Shopping Center by LANDLORD and to any and all advances, without limitation, made or to be made thereunder and to the interest thereon and to all renewals, replacements, consolidations and extensions thereof and that TENANT will from time to time promptly execute, upon demand and without charge, such documents and instruments in such form and substance as LANDLORD or its mortgagee(s) or its other lender(s) may require implementing further the foregoing subordination and agreement to subordinate; provided that TENANT, so long as it is not in default hereunder, shall at all times continue to peacefully and quietly occupy the DEMISED PREMISES. TENANT further agrees that it shall enter into and execute, without charge, all other documents which any mortgagee(s) or any ground lessor may reasonably request TENANT to enter into and execute, including a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment in form required by any mortgagee(s) or ground lessor.

TENANT covenants and agrees that it shall perform all agreements and covenants herein expresses on its part to be performed, that it shall, promptly upon receipt of written notice of non-performance thereof, comply with the requirements of such notice, and that, if TENANT shall not comply with such notice to the satisfaction of LANDLORD within ten (10) days after delivery thereof (or if such compliance cannot reasonably be completed within ten (10) fays, if TENANT shall not commence to comply within such period and thereafter in good faith expeditiously proceed to completion with all due diligence) LANDLORD may, at its option, do or cause to be done any or all of the things specified in said notice and in so doing LANDLORD shall have the right to cause its agents, employees and contractors to enter upon the DEMISED PREMISES and in such event shall have no liability whatsoever to TENANT for any loss or damage resulting in any way or manner whatsoever from such
X
