SUBORDINATION OF LEASE
NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT
NOTICE: THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT RESULTS IN THE LEASEHOLD ESTATE IN THE
PROPERTY BECOMING SUBJECT TO AND OF LOWER PRIORITY THAN THE LIEN OF
SOME OTHER OR LATER SECURITY INSTRUMENT.
THIS SUBORDINATION OF LEASE, NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT
AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into as of October 29, 1997, by
CORNERSTONE CORPORATE CENTRE, LLC, a California limited liability company
("Borrower" or "Landlord"), XXXXX'X RESTAURANTS, INC., a Delaware corporation
("Tenant"), FIRST BANK & TRUST, a California corporation, ("Lender"), with
reference to the following facts:
A. Landlord is or will be the owner of certain land located in
the City of Carlsbad County of San Diego, State of California, more
particularly described in EXHIBIT A attached hereto (the "Land"). The Land
and all improvements now or hereafter to be constructed thereon, are
collectively called herein the "Property."
B. Pursuant to a lease dated October 29, 1997 (the "Lease")
between Landlord and Tenant, Tenant is a tenant of a portion of the Land,
identified in EXHIBIT A as the "Leased Premises."
C. The Leased Premises are a part of a larger development more
particularly described in EXHIBIT B attached hereto and referred to as
Cornerstone Corporate Centre (the "Office Park").
D. References In this Agreement to the "Lease" include, without
limitation, the Lease, including, without limitation, all attachments
thereto, the leasehold estate created thereby and all rights granted in the
Lease, including without limitation, all extension options, rights of first
refusal, exclusive operating rights and rights to restrict the uses made of
other portions of the Office Park.
E. Landlord and Lender have entered into or will enter into a
Building Loan Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") dated as of October 29 1997,
pursuant to which Landlord shall execute a promissory note of even date with
the Loan Agreement in favor of Lender (the "Note") evidencing Landlord's
indebtedness to Lender in connection with a loan of up to $6,280,000 (the
"Loan"). The Loan is being made by Lender to Landlord to, in part, partially
finance Landlord's construction obligations under the Lease.
F. Borrower's obligations under the Note and Loan Agreement are
secured by a Construction Trust Deed with Assignment of Rents, Security
Agreement and Fixture Filing by Borrower ("Borrower Deed of Trust"), dated of
even date with the Loan Agreement and to be recorded in the Official Records
of San Diego County, California (the "Official Records"), concurrently with
the recordation of this Agreement.
G. The Borrower Deed of Trust and all the other documents
executed by Borrower in connection with the Loan and defined in the Loan
Agreement as "Loan Documents" are hereafter referred collectively as the
"Loan Documents." All references herein to the "Deed of Trust" and the "Loan
Documents" include without limitation, all renewals, modifications,
extensions and amendments thereto and replacements and substitutions therefor.
H. As a condition precedent to Borrower's obtaining the Loan and
Lender's approval of the Lease, Lender has required that Landlord and Tenant
subordinate the Lease to the lien of the Deed of Trust, subject to the terms
of this Agreement.
I. It is to the mutual benefit of Landlord and Tenant that Lender
make the Loan to Landlord and approve the Lease, and Landlord and Tenant are
willing to subordinate the Lease to the lien of the Deed of Trust.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing facts and the
mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. PRIORITY OF DEED OF TRUST; SUBORDINATION OF LEASE. The Deed of
Trust shall be and remain at all times a lien on the Property, prior and
superior to the Lease. Landlord and Tenant intentionally and unconditionally
subject and subordinate the Lease in favor of the lien of the Deed of Trust,
and acknowledge that, in reliance upon and in consideration of this
subjection and subordination, the Loan is being made to Landlord and would
not be made but for this subjection and subordination.
2. SUCCESSOR LANDLORD. The term "Successor Landlord" means any person
or entity (including without limitation Lender or any third party) who
succeeds to the interest of Borrower in and to the Leased Premises and the
Lease pursuant to a judicial foreclosure, trustee's sale, or conveyance or
sale in lieu of foreclosure, and the successors and assigns of any such
person or entity.
3. RECOGNITION; TERMINATION RIGHT. Provided that Tenant is not in
default under any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of the Lease (after
the expiration of all applicable grace or cure periods with respect to such
default), any Successor Landlord (a) shall recognize the Lease and Tenant as
its direct tenant under the Lease for the full term thereof (including any
extensions set forth in the Lease that are exercised by Tenant), (b) shall be
bound by and perform all of the obligations of the Landlord (subject to any
limitations contained in this Agreement) under the terms and provisions of
the Lease, (c) shall not disturb Tenant's use or possession of the Leased
Premises, and (d) shall not join (except to the extent required by law)
Tenant in summary or foreclosure proceedings or other proceedings to remove
or evict Borrower from the Office Park. If Tenant is in default under any of
the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease (and all applicable grace or
cure periods with respect to such default have expired), Successor Landlord
may at its option elect to treat the Lease and all rights granted therein as
terminated by virtue of the subordination contained in Section 1 above.
4. ATTORNMENT AND NONDISTURBANCE. If a Successor Landlord succeeds to
the interest of the Landlord under the Lease, and provided that such
Successor Landlord has not elected to terminate the Lease as permitted by
Section 3 above:
(a) The Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct
lease between the Successor Landlord and Tenant for the balance of the term
of the Lease, or any extensions or renewals thereof contemplated by the
Lease; and Tenant, for itself and all other parties bound or affected by the
Lease, agrees that it will attorn to, be liable to and recognize any
Successor Landlord as the owner and lessor of the Leased Premises upon the
same terms and conditions as are contained in the Lease (said attornment
shall be effective and self-operative without the execution of any other
instruments on the part of any party hereto, immediately upon Successor
Landlord succeeding to the interests of Borrower under the Lease), and Tenant
shall pay rent and all other amounts due under the Lease directly to the
Successor Landlord; and
2
(b) From and after such Successor Landlord's acquisition of title,
Successor Landlord shall be deemed to have assumed the Landlord's obligations
under the Lease, provided, however, that the Successor Landlord shall not be:
(i) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord
(including without limitation Borrower);
(ii) liable for the return of any security deposit or other
amount payable to Tenant upon the termination of the Lease, unless such
amounts were previously actually delivered to the Successor Landlord by
Borrower;
(iii) be obligated to cure any default of any prior landlord
(including, without limitation Borrower), which occurred prior to the date
the Successor Landlord acquired title to the Leased Premises unless the
default is continuing after the date the Successor Landlord acquires title;
(iv) subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant may have
against any prior landlord (including without limitation Borrower);
(v) bound by any rent or additional rent which Tenant might
have paid for more than one (1) month in advance to any prior landlord
(including without limitation Borrower), unless Lender shall have consented
in writing thereto or shall have received, directly or indirectly, such
rent or additional rent; or
(vi) liable for any consequential damages attributable to any
acts or omissions of any prior landlord (including without limitation
Borrower); or
(vii) obligated to restore improvements following any casualty
not required to be insured under the Lease or pay the costs of any
restoration in excess of the proceeds recovered under any insurance
required to be carried under the Lease or any condemnation award; or
(viii) liable for any damages or other relief attributable to
any latent or patent defects in construction; or
(ix) liable for any costs or expenses related to any
indemnification or representation provided by any prior landlord
(including, but not limited to, Borrower) with respect to the Property or
the Leased Premises, including without limitation, (A) the presence or
clean-up of any hazardous substances or materials in, on, under or about
the Leased Premises or the Office Park or (B) the ability of Tenant to use
the Property for any purpose; or
(x) obligated to pay any expenses or damages in connection
with or arising from any failure of any prior landlord (including without
limitation Borrower) to enforce any restriction on use in the Office Park,
or any exclusive use provisions of the Lease.
(xi) bound by (A) except as otherwise specifically permitted
by the terms of the Lease, any surrender or consensual termination of the
Lease without Lender's consent (which consent may be withheld in Lender's
sole discretion), or (B) any amendment or modification of the Lease made
without Lender's prior written consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that Lender may withhold its
consent in Lender's sole discretion to any amendment which would reduce
rent or other amounts payable under the Lease, shorten the term of the
Lease, materially increase any construction obligations of Landlord under
the Lease or otherwise materially and adversely change the economic terms
or value of the Lease).
5. ASSIGNMENT. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it has notice
that the Lease and the rent and all other sums due thereunder have been
assigned or are to be assigned to Lender pursuant
3
to the Deed of Trust. If Lender notifies Tenant of the occurrence of an
Event of Default under the Deed of Trust and demands that Tenant pay rents,
reimbursements and other amounts due under the Lease directly to Lender,
Tenant shall honor such demand and pay all rents, reimbursements and other
amounts due under the Lease directly to Lender or as otherwise directed
pursuant to such notice. In complying with these provisions, Tenant shall be
entitled to rely solely upon the notices given by Lender, and Landlord agrees
to indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against any and all loss,
claim, damage or liability arising out of Tenant's compliance with such
notice. Tenant shall be entitled to full credit under the Lease for any
rents paid to Lender in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph to
the same extent as if such rents were paid directly to Landlord. Any dispute
between Lender and Landlord as to the extent, nature, existence or
continuance of an Event of Default, or with respect to foreclosure of the
Deed of Trust by Lender, shall be dealt with and adjusted solely among
Lender, Landlord, and Tenant shall not be made a party thereto (unless
required by law).
6. REPLACEMENT LEASE. Upon the written request of either
Successor Landlord or Tenant to the other, given at or about the time of any
judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure sale, or any conveyance in lieu thereof,
the parties agree to execute a new replacement lease of the Leased Premises
upon the same terms and conditions as the Lease between Borrower and Tenant,
which replacement lease shall cover any unexpired term of the Lease (and
shall include any extension or renewal options contemplated thereby) existing
prior to such foreclosure sate or conveyance in lieu thereof.
7. INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION. Provided that the conditions in
the Deed of Trust and other Loan Documents regarding the procedures and
conditions for the holding and disbursement of the Landlord's interest in the
proceeds of casualty insurance and condemnation awards shall govern, Lender
agrees that such proceeds shall be applied to rebuild or restore the Leased
Premises and the Property to the extent required by the Lease.
8. MODIFICATION OR TERMINATION. Borrower and Lender have advised
Tenant that Borrower does not have the authority, without Lender's prior
written consent, to consent to or agree to any cancellation, termination or
surrender of the Lease (except at the normal expiration of the term of the
Lease) nor to enter into any agreement, amendment or modification of the
Lease.
9. LENDER NOTICE AND CURE RIGHTS. Tenant agrees to give Lender a
copy of any notice of default served by Tenant upon Borrower. Such notice
shall be served in the manner described in Section 16 below at the same time
that notice is given to Borrower. Tenant further agrees that if Borrower
falls to cure such default within the time provided for in the Lease, then
Lender shall have an additional thirty (30) days, commencing after the
expiration of Borrower's cure period, within which to cure such default after
receipt of written notice thereof from Tenant, or if such default cannot be
cured within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary to cure
the default shall be granted if, within thirty (30) days, Lender has
commenced and is diligently pursuing the remedies necessary to cure such
default, including without limitation, commencement of foreclosure
proceedings (if necessary to effect such cure), in which event the Lease
shall not be terminated while such remedies are being diligently pursued by
Lender.
10. LIMITATIONS ON LENDER LIABILITY. Tenant acknowledges that
Lender assumes no duty, liability or other obligation under the Lease either
by virtue of Deed of Trust or by any receipt or collection of rents under the
Lease. If any Successor Landlord should at any time become obligated to
perform the covenants of Landlord under the Lease, then, upon any further
transfer of the Property or the Lease, by such Successor Landlord, all of
such obligations accruing after the date of that further transfer shall
terminate as to the Successor Landlord. No Successor Landlord shall have any
obligation or liability beyond its interest in the Property, and Tenant will
not collect or attempt to collect any judgment out of any assets of Lender
other than the Property.
11. OPTIONAL ADVANCES. All non-obligatory additional advances
made in connection with any construction of improvements on the Property and
secured by the Deed of Trust and any deed of
4
trust used in connection with any refinancing of the Loan by Lender, shall
unconditionally be and remain at all times a lien on the Property, prior and
superior to the Lease.
12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT REGARDING SUBORDINATION. This Agreement
shall be the whole and only agreement with regard to the subordination of the
Lease to the lien of the Deed of Trust, and shall supersede and cancel, but
only in so far as would affect the priority between the Lease and the Deed of
Trust, any prior agreements as to such subordination, including, but not
limited to, those provisions contained in the Lease or any exhibit attached
thereto which may provide for such subordination. If there is a conflict
between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and those of the Lease,
then the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail.
13. CONSENT. Landlord and Tenant declare, agree and acknowledge
that in making disbursements of the Loan under the Loan Agreement, Lender is
under no obligation or duty to, nor has Lender represented that it will, see
to the application of such Loan proceeds by the person or persons to whom
Lender disburses such proceeds, and any application or use of such proceeds
for purposes other than those provided for in the Loan Agreement shall not
defeat the subordination herein.
14. FURTHER ASSURANCES. So long as the Deed of Trust shall remain
a lien upon the Property or any part thereof, Tenant, its successors or
assigns or any other holder of the leasehold estate created by the Lease
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, upon Lender's reasonable demand, at
any time or times, any and all further subordinations, agreements, estoppel
certificates or other instruments in recordable form reasonably sufficient
for that purpose or that Lender or a Successor Landlord may hereafter
reasonably require for carrying out the purpose and intent of this Agreement.
15. NOTICES. All notices of any kind which any party hereto may
be required or may desire to serve on the other shall be deemed served upon
delivery by an overnight courier, or, if mailed, upon the first to occur of
receipt or the expiration of 72 hours after deposit in United States Postal
Service, certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and
addressed as follows:

in, or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange of all or
any part of any properties securing repayment of the Loan; (c) retain or

original or subsequent Loan Documents.

term, subject to Tenant's obligation to repair any damage to the Leased
Premises resulting from such removal.
