Tenant’s Remedies Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, if any default hereunder by Landlord is not cured within the applicable cure period provided in Paragraph 20(c) or any other applicable cure period provided in this Lease (including any Mortgagee’s additional cure period), Tenant’s exclusive remedies shall be (i) an action for specific performance, or (ii) an action for actual damages. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, the liability of Landlord to Tenant for any breach or default by Landlord under the terms of this Lease, or for any other matter related to this Lease or to the Premises or Project, shall be limited to Tenant’s actual direct, but not consequential, damages therefor, and any judgment against Landlord in connection therewith shall be recoverable only from the interest of Landlord in the Buildings. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any disturbance, loss of business, nuisance, injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss arising from Landlord’s entry and acts pursuant to Paragraph 18 or otherwise with respect to any act, omission or breach of Landlord. Without limiting the preceding sentence, in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any consequential damages, including, without limitation, any losses arising from any interruption of Tenant’s business, or for lost profits, or for charges or expenses which continue but would have been earned if the business had gone on without interruption, or for any other loss, claim, cost, expense or damage which would be covered by a standard policy of business interruption insurance. Landlord, or if Landlord is a partnership its partners whether general or limited, or if Landlord is a corporation its directors, officers or shareholders, or if Landlord is a limited liability company its members or managers, shall never be personally liable for any such judgment. Any lien obtained to enforce such judgment and any levy of execution thereon shall be subject and subordinate to any Mortgage (excluding any Mortgage which was created as part of an effort to defraud creditors, i.e., a fraudulent conveyance); provided, however that any such judgment and any such levy of execution thereon shall not be subject or subordinated to any Mortgage that is created or recorded in the official records of the county in which the Project is located after the date of the judgment giving rise to such lien. Landlord’s interest in the Buildings shall include any insurance proceeds received by Landlord which are not controlled by any Mortgagee or other lender. Tenant hereby waives the benefit of any Laws granting it (A) the right to perform Landlord’s obligations, or (B) the right to terminate this Lease or withhold Rent on account of any Landlord default, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(1), 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code.
Landlord’s Default and Tenant’s Remedies In the event Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall nevertheless not be in default under the terms of this Lease until such time as Tenant shall have first given Landlord written notice specifying the nature of such failure to perform its obligations, and then only after Landlord shall have had a reasonable period of time following its receipt of such notice within which to perform such obligations. In the event of Landlord’s default as above set forth, then, and only then, Tenant shall have the following remedies only:
A. Tenant may then proceed in equity or at law to compel Landlord to perform its obligations and/or to recover damages proximately caused by such failure to perform (except as and to the extent Tenant has waived its right to damages as provided in this Lease).
B. Tenant, at its option, may then cure any default of Landlord at Landlord’s cost. If, pursuant to this Subarticle, Tenant reasonably pays any sum to any third party or does any act that requires the payment of any sum to any third part at any time by reason of Landlord’s default, the sum paid by, Tenant shall be immediately due from Landlord to Tenant at the time Tenant supplies Landlord with an invoice therefor (provided such invoice sets forth and is accompanied by a written statement of Tenant setting forth in reasonable detail the amount paid, the party to whom it was paid, the date it was paid, and the reasons giving rise to such payment), together with interest at twelve percent per annum from the date of such invoice until Tenant is reimbursed by Landlord. Tenant may not offset such sums against any installment of rent due Landlord under the terms of this Lease.
Landlord’s Remedies (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 15.1, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies, subject to the rights of Franchisor or Tenant Lender under the provisions of Section 15.3 and Section 20.2:
(i) To terminate this Lease and Tenant's right of possession of the Premises by giving notice of such election to Tenant, in which event (A) Tenant shall immediately surrender possession thereof to Landlord, failing which Landlord may re-enter and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other occupant(s) thereof in accordance with applicable law ("Reentry"), and (B) Tenant shall have no further claim thereon or hereunder;
(ii) To terminate Tenant's right of possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease by giving notice of such election to Tenant, in which event (A) Tenant shall immediately surrender possession thereof to Landlord, failing which Landlord may exercise the right of Reentry, and (B) Landlord shall have the right to occupy the Premises for and on account of Tenant and to collect any unpaid rentals and other charges which have or may thereafter become due and payable;
(iii) To exercise the rights described in clause (ii) above and thereafter elect to terminate this Lease and all of Tenant's rights in or to the Premises by giving notice of such election to Tenant; or
(iv) To exercise any other right or remedy now or hereafter existing by law or in equity.
(b) If Landlord reenters the Premises under subsection (a)(ii) above, such reentry or any action, in unlawful detainer or otherwise, to obtain possession of the Premises shall not be deemed to be an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease, or Tenant's liability to pay rent or other charges thereafter accruing, or Tenant's liability for damages under any provisions hereof, unless Landlord elects to terminate this Lease by written notice to that effect given to Tenant. Tenant covenants that the service by Landlord of any notice pursuant to the unlawful detainer statutes of the State in which the Premises is located and the surrender of possession pursuant to such notice shall not be deemed to be a. termination of this Lease, unless Landlord elects to the contrary by written notice to that effect given to Tenant at the time of or after the service of any such statutory notice. If Landlord reenters or takes possession of the Premises as aforesaid, Landlord shall have the right, subject to the provisions of this Lease, including without limitation, the provisions of Section 16.2, to remove therefrom all or any part of the personal property located therein and may dispose of or place the same in storage at a public warehouse at the expense and risk of Tenant; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be obligated to remove and/or dispose of any such personal property.
(c) If Landlord elects to reenter the Premises under subsection (a)(ii) above and takes possession of the Premises, Landlord may, but except to the extent required by applicable law or court order, shall not be obligated to, relet the Premises for a term, rate and upon such other provisions as Landlord deems appropriate. If Landlord so reenters and takes possession of the Premises, Landlord may decorate, repair and alter the Premises to the extent Landlord deems appropriate for purposes of such reletting. If Landlord is unable to so relet the Premises, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly on the first day of each month during the period that Tenant's right to possession is terminated, a sum equal to the Rent due under this Lease for that month. If the Premises are relet, Landlord shall apply the rents therefrom first to payment of Landlord's expenses incurred by reason of Tenant's default, second, to payment of Landlord's expenses of reletting, including without limitation, brokerage fees and reasonable attorneys' fees, and third, to payment of Rent due from Tenant under this Lease. All sums expended and concessions granted to any new tenant shall be amortized on a straight -line basis over the term of the ne'vY lease and Tenant's liability therefor shall be limited to that portion attributable to the unexpired term of this Lease. If the sums received from such reletting are insufficient to satisfy the payment of Rent due from Tenant under this Lease for any month, Tenant shall remain liable for the deficiency. If the sums received from such reletting exceed the Rent otherwise due from Tenant for any month, Tenant shall have no rights thereto except that such excess amounts shall be applied against Rent subsequently due under this Lease. No such reletting by Landlord shall be considered to be (A) for Landlord's own account unless and until Landlord notifies Tenant that this Lease has been terminated, and (B) an acceptance of Tenant's surrender of the Premises unless and until Landlord so notifies Tenant
(d) In the event of any termination of this Lease or repossession of any of the Premises after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums required to be paid by Tenant to and including the date of such termination or repossession and, thereafter, Tenant shall, until the end of what would have been the Term in the absence of such termination or repossession, and whether or not any of the Premises shall have been relet, be liable to Landlord for and shall pay to Landlord as liquidated and agreed current damages:
(i) Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums which would be payable under this Lease by Tenant in the absence of such termination or repossession, less (ii) the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting pursuant to Section 15.2(c), after deducting from such proceeds all of Landlord's reasonable expenses in connection with such re letting (including without limitation, all reasonable repossession costs,. brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees, costs of Alteration and expenses of preparation for reletting). Tenant hereby agrees to be and remain liable for all sums aforesaid and Landlord may recover such damages from Tenant and institute and maintain successive actions or legal proceedings against Tenant for the recovery of such damages. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require Landlord to wait to begin such action or other legal proceedings until the date when the Term would have expired had there been no such Event of Default.
(e) At any time after such termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 15.2(a)(i) or pursuant to law, whether or not Landlord shall have recovered any amounts under Section 15.2(c) or 15.2(d), Landlord, at its option, shall be entitled to recover from Tenant and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, as and for liquidated and agreed final damages for Tenant's default, (i) the amount by which the Base Rent and all Additional Rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of the Term demised herein as if the Lease had not expired or been terminated exceeds the then fair and reasonable rental value of the Premises for the same period, discounted to present worth at the prime rate (as defined in Section 24.6), minus any such monthly deficiencies previously recovered from Tenant for such unexpired portion of the Term demised herein under Section 15.2(c), plus (ii) all reasonable legal fees and other costs and expenses incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant's default under this Lease and the exercise of any rights and remedies hereunder.
(f) If any statute or rule of law governing a proceeding in which such liquidated final damages provided for in Section 15.2(e) are to be proved shall validly limit the amount thereof to an amount less than the amount above agreed upon, Landlord shall be entitled to the maximum amount allowable under such statute or rule of law.
(g) Mention in this Lease of any particular remedy shall not preclude Landlord from any other remedy at law or in equity. No right or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Landlord in this Lease is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy; and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy contained in this Lease. No delay or failure by Landlord or Tenant to enforce its rights under this Lease shall be construed as a waiver, modification or relinquishment thereof. Tenant waives any rights of redemption granted by any laws if Tenant is evicted or dispossessed, or if Landlord obtains possession of the Premises by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the terms of this Lease.
Landlord Remedies The remedies provided Landlord under this Lease are cumulative. Upon the occurrence of any default by Tenant, and in addition to any and all other rights provided a landlord under law or equity for breach of a lease or tenancy by a tenant, Landlord shall have the right to pursue one or more of the following remedies:
(a) Landlord may serve notice on Tenant that the Term and the estate hereby vested in Tenant and any and all other rights of Tenant hereunder shall cease on the date specified in such notice and on the specified date this Lease shall cease and expire as fully and with the effect as if the Term had expired for passage of time.
(b) Without terminating this Lease in case of a default or if this Lease shall be terminated for default as provided herein, Landlord may re-enter the Premises, remove Tenant, or cause Tenant to be removed from the Premises in such manner as Landlord may deem advisable, with or without legal process. In the event of re-entry without terminating this Lease, Tenant shall continue to be liable for all Rents and other charges accruing or coming due under this Lease which Rent shall automatically accelerate and become immediately due and payable.
(c) If Landlord, without terminating this Lease, shall re-enter the Premises or if this Lease shall be terminated as provided in paragraph (a) above:
(i) All Rent due from Tenant to Landlord shall thereupon become due and shall be paid up to the time of re-entry, dispossession or expiration, together with reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) of Landlord and without benefit of valuation and appraisement laws which Tenant hereby waives;
(ii) Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises or any part thereof for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option be less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant such concessions in reletting as Landlord, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, deems desirable. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall have satisfied its obligation to attempt to relet the Premises if Landlord offers the Premises for reletting in the normal course of its business, without preference over any other premises in the Building. In connection with such reletting, Tenant shall be liable for all costs of the reletting including, without limitation, rent concessions, leasing commissions, legal fees and alteration and remodeling costs; and
(iii) If Landlord shall have terminated this Lease, Tenant shall also be liable to Landlord for the positive difference, if any, between the aggregate Rents reserved under the terms of this Lease for the balance of the Term together with all other sums payable hereunder as Rent for the balance of the Term, less the fair-rental value of the Premises for that period determined as of the date of such termination. For purposes of this paragraph, Tenant shall be deemed to include any guarantor or surety of the Lease.
(d) Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due.
(e) Whether or not Landlord terminates this Lease, Landlord shall have the right, as Landlord chooses in its absolute discretion, (i) to terminate any or all subleases licenses, concessions and other agreements entered into by Tenant in connection with its occupancy of the Premises and/or (ii) to maintain any or all such agreements in effect and succeed to Tenant’s interests in connection therewith (in which event Tenant shall cease to have any interest in any such agreement). This subsection (e) shall not apply to any subtenant or licensee with whom Landlord has previously entered into a so-called recognition agreement.
Lessor’s Remedies In the event Lessee is in default pursuant to the conditions set forth in Section 15.01 above, Lessor, during the continuation of such default, shall have the option of pursuing either of the following remedies:
(a) Lessor may terminate this Lease Agreement, in which event Lessee immediately shall surrender possession of the Demised Premises. All obligations of Lessee under the Lease Agreement, including Lessee’s obligation to pay rent under the Lease Agreement, shall cease upon the date of termination except for Lessee’s obligation to pay rent due and outstanding as of the date of termination.
(b) Lessor, without terminating the Lease Agreement, may require Lessee to remove all property from the Common Improvements within thirty (30) days so that Lessor may re-enter and relet the premises to minimize Lessor’s damages. In the event Lessee shall fail to remove all property within thirty (30) days after said demand, Lessor shall be entitled to remove Lessee’s property to a storage facility, and all reasonable costs of such removal and storage shall be deemed additional rent under the Lease Agreement for which Lessee is responsible for payment. Lessor may enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease Agreement, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes due hereunder, provided that Lessor shall have an affirmative obligation to use Lessor’s best efforts to re-let the Common Improvements and to mitigate its damages under the Lease Agreement.
(c) If this Lease Agreement is terminated as set forth, Lessor may relet the Common Improvements (or any portion thereof) for such rent and upon such terms as Lessor is able to obtain (which may be for lower or higher rent, and for a shorter or longer term), and Lessee shall be liable for all damages sustained by Lessor, including but not limited to any deficiency in Rent for the duration of the Lease Term (or for the period of time which would have remained in the Lease Term in the absence of any termination, leasing fees, attorneys’ fees, other marketing and collection costs and all expenses of placing the Common Improvements in first class rentable condition).
(d) Nothing contained herein diminishes any right Lessor may have under South Carolina law to ▇▇▇ Lessee for damages in the event of any default by Lessee under this Lease Agreement, or from pursuing any other remedy available to Lessor at law or in equity.
