Common use of Takeover Clause in Contracts

Takeover. (a) Simultaneously with the execution of this Lease, Landlord, as subtenant, and Guarantor, as sublandlord, will enter into sublease of the Metroplex Lease substantially in the form of Exhibit P (the “Takeover Sublease”) provided that, as provided in the Takeover Sublease, the effectiveness of the Takeover Sublease shall be subject to the parties obtaining the consent of the landlord under the Metroplex Lease (the “Metroplex Landlord”) to the Takeover Sublease. Each of Landlord and Guarantor shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of the Metroplex Landlord to the Takeover Sublease. Landlord shall provide to Metroplex Landlord information and materials (i.e., financial statements) it reasonably requests in connection with its consideration of the Takeover Sublease and Landlord. If requested by the Metroplex Landlord, Landlord shall provide a reasonable cash security to Metroplex Landlord, provided that the Metroplex Cap (as such term is defined below) shall be reduced by the amount of such cash security until such cash security is either returned to Landlord or Metroplex Landlord draws on such cash security as the result of a default by Landlord under the Metroplex Lease, at which time, such amount shall be added back to the Metroplex Cap. (b) This Lease and Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall not be contingent on the Metroplex Landlord agreeing to or consenting to the Takeover Sublease. However, if Guarantor and Landlord are not able to obtain the consent of the Metroplex Landlord to the Takeover Sublease for reasons other than Landlord’s failure to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of the Metroplex Landlord, as provided above, within one hundred twenty (120) days after submission of the Takeover Sublease, together with submission of all additional items pursuant to Section 30.2(a) above, if requested, then (x) the Takeover Sublease shall be void and of no further force and effect (in accordance with its terms), however, pursuant to this Lease, Landlord shall remain obligated to make timely monthly payments of the Metroplex Rent up to a cap of $2,850,000.00 (the “Metroplex Cap”) directly to Guarantor as set forth in the Takeover Sublease, as and when payable under the Metroplex Lease, which payments shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date, and (y) Guarantor and Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to find a third-party subtenant acceptable to Guarantor and Metroplex Landlord, each in their sole discretion (“New Subtenant”). If Guarantor and Landlord are able to find such a New Subtenant, and such New Subtenant enters into a sublease of the Metroplex Lease with Guarantor, the actual payments by New Subtenant under such sublease attributable to Metroplex Rent shall be paid to Guarantor by such New Subtenant, and Landlord’s monthly payment of the Metroplex Rent shall be reduced by the monthly payment of Metroplex Rent actually received by Guarantor from such New Subtenant. (c) In connection with an sale of the Building by Landlord, (i) if the Takeover Sublease is still in effect having been consented to by Metroplex Landlord, provided that Landlord has not subleased or licensed the Metroplex Premises to another unaffiliated occupant, then the Takeover Sublease shall terminate simultaneously with the sale of the Building and Landlord shall prepay in one lump sum the remaining balance of the Metroplex Rent payable by Landlord up to the Metroplex Cap or (ii) if the Takeover Sublease has been voided because Metroplex Landlord did not consent to the Takeover Sublease, then Landlord shall have the option, upon the sale of the Building, to prepay in one lump sum the remaining balance of the Metroplex Rent payable by Landlord up to the Metroplex Cap.
