12.
Assignment/Sublease. Tenant may not assign or sublease any of its right in the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord with the exception of making the premises available to Seller as such term is defined in the APA and pursuant to the terms and conditions of the APA.

Landlord shall also be permitted to re-let the Premises or any portion thereof, and may elect to sue Tenant more than once to collect sums due under this Lease, independent of whether Landlord elects to terminate the Lease.
15.
Surrender at Expiration/Holdover. On expiration of the Lease term or earlier termination on account of default, Tenant shall deliver all keys to Landlord and surrender the Premises in first-class condition and broom clean. Alterations constructed by Tenant with permission from Landlord shall not be removed or restored to the original condition unless the terms of permission for the alteration so require. Depreciation and wear from ordinary use for the purpose for which the Premises are leased shall be excepted but repairs for which Tenant is responsible shall be completed to the latest practical date before such surrender. Tenants obligations under this section shall be subordinate to the provisions of Section 9 relating to destruction.

The acceptance of a late payment of rent shall not waive the failure to perform an obligation under this Lease except for the failure to pay the rent so accepted when due and shall not affect Landlords remedies for failure to perform such other obligations.
16.2
Attorney Fees. If suit or action is instituted in connection with any controversy arising out of this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, in addition to costs, such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as attorney fees at trial, on petition for review, and on appeal, including any proceeding related to bankruptcy.
