FORM OF
LANDLORD'S SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT
STATE OF TEXAS ss
ss
COUNTY OF [COUNTY WHICH INSTRUMENT FILED] ss
WHEREAS, [LANDLORD'S NAME] ("Landlord") is the owner of those certain
premises located at [STREET ADDRESS OF PROPERTY], which is further described as
follows (the "Premises"); and
[LEGAL DESCRIPTION OR AN ATTACHMENT]
WHEREAS, Landlord leases said Premises to [BORROWER'S/SUBSIDIARIES' NAME]
("Tenant"), subject to a lease agreement dated [DATE OF LEASE AGREEMENT] by and
between Landlord and Tenant (the "Lease"); and
WHEREAS, Landlord understands that NationsBank, N.A., as Agent (the
"Agent") for the lenders ("Lenders") parties to a credit agreement with [TENANT
(IF BORROWER)/PENTACON, INC. (IF SUBSIDIARY)] has been granted a security
interest as evidenced by a Security Agreement dated [SECURITY AGREEMENT DATE] in
certain property, as more fully described on Exhibit A attached hereto and made
a part hereof (the "Mortgaged Property") and may from time to time be granted
additional security interests in additional Mortgaged Property, which is or
shall be situated upon the Premises.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises, the promises, mutual
covenants and agreements contained herein and for good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Agent
hereby agrees as follows:
1. Landlord subordinates to Agent all rights to maintain or enforce a
landlord's lien (whether statutory or contractual) or any other claim against
the Mortgaged Property which may now or hereafter be situated upon the Premises,
regardless of whether or not Tenant (i) fails to perform any obligation or term
of the Lease or (ii) otherwise defaults under the Lease, or (iii) abandons the
Premises and the Mortgaged Property is either moved to a new location without
the prior written consent of Agent, or the Mortgaged Property remains at the
Premises.
2. The Mortgaged Property shall remain personal property notwithstanding
the manner or mode of attachment of the Mortgaged Property to the Premises and
shall not become fixtures as long as Tenant is indebted to Lenders.
Exhibit J-1
3. In the event that default exists on any indebtedness to Lenders which
is secured by the Mortgaged Property, Agent may, at its election notify Landlord
by written notice at Landlord's address set forth below of Agent's intent to
enter the Premises for the purpose of removing the Mortgaged Property, and
Landlord agrees to allow Agent to have access to the Premises for such removal
during reasonable hours.
4. Landlord shall notify Agent by written notice at Agent's address set
forth below within thirty (30) days from the date that Tenant (i) defaults on
the Lease or (ii) abandons the Premises. Agent nor Lenders shall be required to
take any action in the event either of these circumstances occur.
5. In addition to the rights granted in paragraph 3 above, Agent may elect
to take possession of the Mortgaged Property located on the Premises. Agent
agrees to pay Landlord past due "Base Rent", if any is owing by Tenant for a
period not to exceed [# OF DATES OF BANK RENT] days, plus the monthly Base Rent
for the period in which the Agent is in possession of and utilizing the
Premises. Base Rent shall be defined as the stated sum of money set forth in the
Lease for rent, which amount, shall be payable to Landlord for each month during
the term of the Lease, less any sum of money due for expenses by Landlord with
respect to the ownership, maintenance, servicing, repairing and operation of the
Premises, including, but not limited t maintenance, repair and replacement
costs, electricity, fuel, water, sewer, gas and other utility charges.
6. Agent agrees to reimburse Landlord for the repair of damage incurred
during the process of Agent removing the Mortgaged Property, if applicable,
which amount shall be the reasonable cost of repairing the Premises to the
condition that the Premises were in prior to such removal, and taking into
account normal wear and tear. The removal of any fastening devices for the
purpose of removing any of the Mortgaged Property shall not constitute a
required need for Agent to reimburse Landlord for repairs to the Premises under
this Section, as a result of such removal. Agent shall have no further liability
or obligation of any kind under the Lease while in possession of and utilizing
the Premises.
7. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect so long as any
indebtedness secured by the Mortgaged Property remains outstanding to Lenders.
Lenders, or their assigns may, without affecting the validity of this Agreement,
extend the times of payment of any indebtedness secured by the Mortgaged
Property, or the performance of any of the terms and conditions of any loan
agreement or other documents evidencing the pledge to Agent of the Mortgaged
Property, without the consent of the Landlord and without giving notice thereof
to the Landlord.
8. Notice shall be deemed reasonable if mailed postage prepaid at least
five (5) days before the related action to the address of Landlord or Agent, at
their respective addresses indicated at the end of this Landlord's Subordination
Agreement, or to such other address as any party may designate by written notice
to the other party. Each notice, request and demand shall
Exhibit J-2
be deemed given or made, if sent by mail, upon the earlier of the date of
receipt or five (5) days after deposit in the U.S. Mail, first class postage
prepaid, or if sent by any other means, upon delivery.
9. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of any heirs, administrators,
personal representatives, successors or assigns of Agent and Landlord.
This Agreement is executed and effective as of the _____ day of _______________,
