GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONSENT TO SUBLEASE
The following terms and conditions are an integral part of the foregoing
Consent to Sublease.
1. Neither the Master Lease, the Sublease nor this Consent shall be
deemed, nor are they intended, to grant to Sublessee any rights whatsoever
against Landlord. Sublessee hereby acknowledges and agrees that its sole remedy
for any alleged or actual breach of its rights in connection with the Sublease
shall be solely against Tenant. Sublessee acknowledges and agrees that it is not
a third party beneficiary under the Master Lease, and is not entitled to assert
any of Tenant's rights thereunder against Landlord, whether in its own right or
on behalf of Tenant.
2. This Consent shall not release Tenant from any existing or future
duty, obligation or liability to Landlord pursuant to the Master Lease, nor
shall this Consent change, modify or amend the Master Lease in any manner,
except insofar as it constitutes Landlord's consent to the sublease.
Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, (i) this Consent expressly
shall not absolve Tenant from the requirement set forth in the Master Lease that
Tenant obtain Landlords' prior written approval of any additional subleases,
assignments or other dispositions of its interest in the Master Lease or the
Premises (as defined in the Master Lease) and (ii) this Consent shall not
constitute Landlord's consent to any alteration of the premises leased under the
Master Lease.
3. In the event Tenant is in default under any of the terms and
provisions of the Master Lease, Landlord may elect to receive directly from
Sublessee all sums due or payable to Tenant by Sublessee pursuant to the
Sublease, and upon receipt of Landlord's notice, Sublessee shall thereafter pay
to Landlord any and all sums becoming due or payable under the Sublease and
Tenant shall receive from Landlord a corresponding credit for such sums actually
received by written notice nor the receipt of such direct payments shall cause
Landlord to assume any of Tenant's duties, obligations and/or liabilities under
the Sublease, nor shall such event impose upon Landlord the duty or obligation
to honor the Sublease, nor subsequently to accept any purported attornment by
Sublessee.
4. Sublessee hereby acknowledges that it has read and has knowledge of
all of the terms, provisions, rules and regulations of the Master Lease and
agrees not to do or omit to do anything which would cause Tenant to be in breach
of the Master Lease. Any such act or omission shall also constitute a breach of
the Master Lease and this Consent and shall entitle Landlord to recover any
damage, loss, cost, or expense which it thereby suffers, from Tenant and/or
Sublessee.
5. In the event of any litigation between the parties hereto with respect
to the subject matter hereof, the unsuccessful party agrees to pay to the
successful party all reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys' fees incurred
therein by the successful party, which may be included as a part of a judgment
rendered therein.
6. The parties acknowledge that the Sublease constitutes the entire
agreement between Tenant and Sublessee with respect to the subject matter
thereof insofar as Landlord may be concerned, and that no amendment,
termination, modification or change therein will be binding upon Landlord unless
Landlord shall have given its prior written consent thereto.
