As such, this Lease shall be construed and interpreted as the joint work product of Landlord and Tenant and/or their attorneys.

Interpretation of Lease. Tenant acquires no rights by implication from this Lease, and is not a beneficiary of any past, current or future agreements between Landlord and third parties. Surrender or cancellation of this Lease shall not work a merger, and shall, at Landlord’s option, assign to it all subleases or subtenancies.
