The following terms, when used in this Agreement, shall have the following meanings:

 

Foreclosure Event” means (a) the foreclosure of the Security Instrument or any other sale by Lender or any trustee for Lender pursuant to the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document; (b) any other exercise by Lender of its rights and remedies as holder of the Mortgage Loan or the Security Instrument as a result of which Lender or any other Successor Landlord acquires title to, or the right of possession of, the Mortgaged Property; or (c) acquisition of title to the Mortgaged Property in lieu of foreclosure or other conveyance of Landlord’s interest in the Mortgaged Property in lieu of any of the foregoing.

Section 3.          Lease Subordination.

 

The Lease and all estates, rights, options, liens, and charges therein contained or created under the Lease are and shall be subject and subordinate to the lien and effect of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents insofar as it affects the real and personal property of which the Premises form a part, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, and extensions thereof, and to all advances made or to be made thereunder, to the full extent of amounts secured thereby and interest thereon.

Section 5.          Possession of the Mortgaged Property.

 

In the event that a Successor Landlord acquires title to or the right to possession of the Mortgaged Property upon a Foreclosure Event or a Subsequent Sale, the Successor Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to recognize one another as landlord and tenant, respectively, under the Lease and to be bound to one another under all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of the Lease, Successor Landlord shall assume all of the obligations of Landlord under the Lease subject to the provisions of this Agreement and Tenant agrees to attorn to such Successor Landlord and to recognize such Successor Landlord as “landlord” under the Lease without any additional documentation to effect such attornment (provided, however, if applicable law shall require additional documentation at the time Lender exercises its remedies then Tenant shall execute such additional documents evidencing such attornment as may be required by applicable law). Accordingly, from and after such event, Successor Landlord and Tenant shall have the same remedies against each other for the breach of an agreement contained in the Lease as Tenant and Landlord had before Successor Landlord succeeded to the interest of Landlord; provided, however, that Successor Landlord shall not be:

 

(a)          liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including Landlord);

 

(b)          subject to any offsets or defenses that Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including Landlord);

 

(c)          bound by any rent or additional rent that Tenant might have paid for more than one (1) month in advance to any prior landlord (including Landlord);

 

(d)          bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease made after the date of this Agreement without Lender’s prior written consent;

 

(e)          liable for return of any security deposit not actually paid over to such Successor Landlord by the Landlord;

 

(f)          bound by, or liable for, any breach of any representation or warranty or indemnity agreement contained in the Lease or otherwise made by any prior landlord (including Landlord); or

 

(g)          personally liable for the payment of any claim hereunder or for the performance of any obligation, agreement, contribution, or term to be performed or observed by Successor Landlord hereunder or under the Security Instrument, the Loan Agreement, or any other agreement or document securing or collateral to the Security Instrument, such Successor Landlord’s liability being limited in all cases to its interest in the Mortgaged Property.

 

Section 6.          Delivery of Documents.

 

Although the foregoing provisions of this Agreement shall be self-operative, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Successor Landlord, such other instrument or instruments as Successor Landlord shall from time to time request in order to confirm such provision.

 

Section 7.          Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements.

 

Tenant hereby warrants and represents, covenants, and agrees to and with Lender:

 

(a)         that the Lease constitutes the entire agreement between Tenant and Landlord with respect to the Premises and there are no other agreements, written or verbal, governing the tenancy of Tenant with respect to the Premises;

 

(b)         not to alter or modify the Lease in any respect without prior written consent of Lender;

 

(c)         to deliver to Lender in accordance with Section 11 a duplicate of each notice of default delivered to Landlord at the same time as such notice is given to Landlord;

(d)          that Tenant is now the sole owner of the leasehold estate created by the Lease and shall not hereafter transfer the Lease except as permitted by the terms thereof;

 

(e)          not to seek to terminate the Lease by reason of any default of Landlord without prior written notice thereof to Lender and the lapse thereafter of such time as under the Lease was offered to Landlord in which to remedy the default, and the lapse of thirty (30) days after the expiration of such time as Landlord was permitted to cure such default; provided, however, that with respect to any default of Landlord under the Lease which cannot be remedied within such time, if Lender commences to cure such default within such time and thereafter diligently proceeds with such efforts and pursues the same to completion, Lender shall have such time as is reasonably necessary to complete curing such default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event either Lender or Landlord do not cure or commence curing such default within the time provided to Landlord under the Lease and the nature of the default threatens Tenant’s ability to conduct its daily business or threatens to materially or adversely damage Tenant’s property located on the Premises, Tenant shall be permitted to exercise its right under the Lease;

 

(f)          not to pay any rent or other sums due or to become due under the Lease more than thirty (30) days in advance of the date on which the same are due or to become due under the Lease; and

 

(g)          to certify promptly in writing to Lender in connection with any proposed assignment of the Loan Agreement, whether or not any default on the part of Landlord then exists under the Lease.

 

Section 8.          Assignment.

 

Tenant further acknowledges that Landlord has collaterally assigned to Lender the Lease and the rents and other amounts, including lease termination fees, if any, due and payable under such leases. In connection therewith, Tenant agrees that, upon receipt by Tenant of a notice from Lender of the occurrence of a default by Landlord under such assignment and a demand by Lender for direct payment to Lender of the rents due under the Lease, Tenant will honor such demand and make all subsequent rent payments directly to Lender. Landlord hereby agrees that any rents, fees or other amounts paid by Tenant to or as directed by Lender pursuant to this section shall be deemed to have been duly and validly paid by Tenant under the Lease, and any such amounts shall be credited against Tenant’s obligations under the Lease as if the same were paid directly to Landlord. Landlord and Tenant each agree that Tenant shall have no obligation to determine whether Landlord is in default under such assignment, and Tenant may rely on such notice and direction from Lender without any duty to investigate.

 

Section 9.          Successors and Assigns.

 

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their successors and assigns.

 

Section 10.         Trustee.

 

If the Security Instrument is a deed of trust, then, this Agreement is entered into by one or more trustees acting on behalf of Lender in his, her or its capacity as trustee and not individually, then Tenant agrees that neither such trustees, nor any of its officers, employees, agents, or shareholders shall be personally liable under this Agreement.
