true and complete copies of which have been delivered to Assignee. Assignor
represents and warrants to Assignee that Exhibit X-x contains a complete list of
all security deposits and letters of credit (if any) posted with Assignor as
security, affecting the Property. Assignor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold

including reasonable attorneys fees and litigation expenses, arising as a result
of claims asserted against Assignee under the Leases (or otherwise) for events
occurring prior to the date hereof (including, without limitation, claims for

upon and inure to the benefit of Assignee and Assignor and their respective
successors and assigns.
