Survey that the ROFO (RM) Parties have elected to obtain is herein referred to as the “Updated Survey.” Any new material matters disclosed on the Updated Survey (i.e., not disclosed on the Existing Survey) shall constitute a “Survey Objection” under this Agreement if the ROFO (RM) Parties object to same in writing on or before the Title Objection Date (as defined in Section 6.2(a) below), WITH TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE.
Section 6.2 Title Commitment. (a) the ROFO (RM) Parties acknowledges receipt of the Commonwealth Title Commitment. If the ROFO (RM) Parties elect to use a title company other than Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Company, prior to the Effective Date, the ROFO (RM) Parties shall have ordered from the Title Company a title insurance commitment for an Owner’s Title Insurance Policy (the “Title Commitment”). If the ROFO (RM) Parties elect to use Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Company as the Title Company, within two (2) Business Days after the Effective Date, the ROFO (RM) Parties shall order from the Title Company an update to said Commonwealth Title Commitment. Prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period (the “Title Objection Date”), the ROFO (RM) Parties shall notify MC Owner in writing of any (i) exceptions to title to the Real Property raised by the Title Company if the ROFO (RM) Parties deems same unacceptable (“Title Objections”) and (ii) Survey Objections. In the event MC Owner does not receive notice of any Title Objections or Survey Objections by the Title Objection Date, the ROFO (RM) Parties will be deemed to have accepted the exceptions to title set forth in the Title Commitment, and such exceptions shall constitute “Permitted Exceptions”, and all matters shown on the Updated Survey. TIME SHALL BE OF THE ESSENCE WITH RESPECT TO THE TITLE OBJECTION DATE.
(b) By the date (the “New Objection Date”) which is five (5) Business Days after the ROFO (RM) Parties’ counsel receives notice of any new exception to title to the Real Property recorded in the land records or arising after the effective date of the Title Commitment and prior to the Closing (or as promptly as possible prior to the Closing if such notice is received with less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing) which is objectionable according to the Connecticut Bar Association Standards, the ROFO (RM) Parties shall provide MC Owner with written notice of its objection to such new exception if the ROFO (RM) Parties deem same unacceptable (“New Title Objection”). TIME SHALL BE OF THE ESSENCE WITH RESPECT TO THE NEW OBJECTION DATE. In the event MC Owner does not receive the New Title Objection by the New Objection Date, the ROFO (RM) Parties will be deemed to have accepted the applicable exceptions to title set forth on any applicable update to the Title Commitment as Permitted Exceptions.
(c) All taxes, water rates or charges, sewer rents and assessments, plus interest and penalties thereon, which on the Closing Date are liens against the Real Property and which MC Owner is obligated to pay and discharge will be credited against the Redemption Property Value (subject to the provision for apportionment of taxes, water rates and sewer rents herein contained) and shall not be deemed a Title Objection. If on the Closing Date there shall be security interests filed against the Real Property, such items shall not be Title Objections if (i) the personal property covered by such security interests are no longer in or on the Real Property; (ii) such personal property is the property of a Tenant, and MC Owner executes and delivers an affidavit to such effect; or (iii) the security interest was filed more than five (5) years prior to the Closing Date and was not renewed; and in addition, as a result thereof or otherwise, the Title Company omits such security interest as an exception from the Title Commitment.
(d) If on the Closing Date the Real Property shall be affected by any lien which, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, is required to be discharged or satisfied by MC Owner, MC Owner shall not be required to discharge or satisfy the same of record provided the money necessary to satisfy the lien is retained by the Title Company at Closing to be applied to satisfy such lien at Closing, or MC Owner provides an indemnity from MCRLP in form and substance satisfactory to the Title Company, the Title Company omits the lien as an exception from the Title Commitment without additional premium or cost to the ROFO (RM) Parties, and the ROFO (RM) Parties’ lender does not object to such omission
based on such indemnity and a credit is given to the ROFO (RM) Parties for the recording charges for a satisfaction or discharge of such lien.
(e) No franchise, transfer, inheritance, income, corporate or other tax open, levied or imposed against MC Owner or any former owner of the Real Property, that may be a lien against the Real Property on the Closing Date, shall be an objection to title if the Title Company insures against collection thereof from or out of the Real Property and/or the Improvements, and provided further that MC Owner deposits with the Title Company a sum reasonably sufficient to secure a release of the Real Property from the lien thereof or an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Title Company, the Title Company omits the lien as an exception from the Title Commitment and the ROFO (RM) Parties’ lender does not object to such omission based on such indemnity agreement. If any such tax issue is not resolved within sixty (60) days of after Closing, the Title Company shall, at the ROFO (RM) Parties’ direction use any escrowed funds to satisfy such tax. If a search of title discloses judgments, bankruptcies, or other returns against other persons having names the same as or similar to that of MC Owner, MC Owner will deliver to the ROFO (RM) Parties and the Title Company an affidavit stating that such judgments, bankruptcies or other returns do not apply to MC Owner, and, so long as the Title Company omits the same as an exception from the Title Commitment without additional premium or cost to the ROFO (RM) Parties, such search results shall not be deemed Title Objections.

Failure to respond within such seven (7) day period shall be deemed an election by MC Owner to attempt to cure such objection. If MC Owner elects or is deemed to have elected to attempt to cure any Title Defect, (i) the Closing shall not occur any earlier than five (5) Business Days after MC Owner has cured the Title Defect and given the ROFO (RM) Parties notice thereof, and (ii) the Scheduled Closing Date, to the extent elected by MC Owner, shall be extended, for a period not to exceed fifteen (15) days, for the purpose of attempting such removal. In the event that (A) MC Owner elects not to attempt to cure any such Title Defect, or (B) MC Owner is unable to cure any such Title Defect for any period elected by MC Owner but not to exceed fifteen (15) days from the Scheduled Closing Date, MC Owner shall so advise the ROFO (RM) Parties, and the ROFO (RM) Parties shall have the right to (1) waive such Title Defect and proceed to the Closing, or (2) amend this Agreement to identify an OP Unit Substituted Redemption Property as defined in and subject to the Other PSAs for the Westchester County New York properties to substitute for the Redemption Property (a “Substituted Redemption Property”). The ROFO (RM) Parties shall make such election Owner within ten (10) days of receipt of MC Owner’s notice. Failure to so elect within such ten (10) day period shall be deemed an election under clause (2) above. If the ROFO (RM) Parties elect to proceed to the Closing, any Title Defects waived by the ROFO (RM) Parties shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Article VI to the contrary, MC Owner will be obligated to cure exceptions to title to the Real Property, regardless of notice from the ROFO (RM) Parties, in the manner described above, (i) relating to liens and security interests securing any financings to MC Owner, (ii) any mechanic’s liens resulting from work at the Real Property commissioned by MC Owner, (iii) any other liens against the Redemption Property based on claims against MC Owner, or against any tenant unless such tenant is obligated under its lease to discharge such lien (by payment or filing a bond or otherwise as permitted by law), which may be cured by the payment of up to three-quarters of one percent (0.75%) of the Redemption Property Value with respect to all liens described in this clause (iii) which affect such Redemption Property, and (iv) any exceptions or encumbrances to title created by MC Owner or any of MC Owner’s Affiliate after the Effective Date. The ROFO (RM) Parties
shall have the right to direct the seller under the Other PSAs to apply any portion of the purchase price under the Other PSAs at Closing to satisfy, cure and discharge any of the liens, security interests and encumbrances that MC Owner is required to cure pursuant to this Section 6.3(b).

Within three (3) Business Days after the Closing Date, MC Owner shall (1) deliver to the issuers of the Letters of Credit the required transfer documents in order for the issuers to process a change in the beneficiary and pay (or cause the Tenant to pay) any required transfer fee, with copies provided to the ROFO (RM) Parties, or (2) if a Letter of Credit is not transferrable by its terms, insert in the Tenant Notice Letter to the respective Tenant demanding such Tenant to either deliver a replacement cash or letter of credit security deposit to the ROFO (RM) Parties for the requisite security deposit pursuant to the terms and conditions of the applicable Lease, and MC Owner shall return such Letter of Credit to the issuer at such time the
ROFO (RM) Parties confirms to MC Owner that such replacement cash or letter of credit security deposit was delivered to the ROFO (RM) Parties. To the extent a required transfer fee for which a Tenant is responsible under its Lease is paid by MC Owner, the ROFO (RM) Parties shall bill the Tenant and use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to collect such amounts on behalf of MC Owner after Closing; it being understood and agreed that the ROFO (RM) Parties shall have no obligation to commence any legal action against any Tenant. To the extent that any Letter of Credit is not transferred to the ROFO (RM) Parties at Closing, or the documents delivered to effect such transfer are not accepted by the issuer thereof, MC Owner shall, at the ROFO (RM) Parties’ request and with the ROFO (RM) Parties’ cooperation, reasonably cooperate with the ROFO (RM) Parties as the ROFO (RM) Parties shall reasonably request to effect such transfer. For any Letter of Credit to be transferred after Closing, until such transfer is effected: (A) at the ROFO (RM) Parties’ instruction upon a Tenant default, MC Owner will draw upon the Letter of Credit and pay the proceeds to the ROFO (RM) Parties; and (B) under no circumstances will MC Owner draw upon the Letter of Credit without written authorization from the ROFO (RM) Parties. MC Owner agrees that after the expiration of the Evaluation Period it will not pursue any eviction action or initiate any litigation against any Tenants or apply or draw on any Security Deposits of any Tenants against the payment of rent or other default of a Tenant; provided that MC Owner shall give prompt notice to the ROFO (RM) Parties for any such application or draw of Security Deposits prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period. MC Owner’s and the ROFO (RM) Parties’ obligations under this Section 10.4(a)(ii) shall survive Closing.

(iv) Utility charges payable by MC Owner, including, without limitation, electricity, water charges and sewer charges. If there are meters on the Real Property, MC Owner will cause readings of all said meters to be performed not more than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, and a per diem adjustment shall be made for the days between the meter reading date and the Closing Date based on the most recent meter reading. Final readings and final billings for utilities will be made if possible as of the Closing Date, in which event no proration will be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills. MC Owner will be entitled to all deposits presently in effect with the utility providers, and the ROFO (RM) Parties will be obligated to make its own arrangements for any deposits with the utility providers.
(v) Real estate taxes and assessments due and payable for the calendar year. If the Closing Date shall occur before the tax rate is fixed, the apportionment of real estate taxes and assessments shall be upon the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year applied to the latest assessed valuation. If, subsequent to the Closing Date, real estate taxes and assessments (by reason of change in either assessment or rate or for any other reason other than as a result of the final determination or settlement of any tax appeal) for the Real Property and/or Improvements should be determined to be higher or lower than those that are apportioned, a new computation shall be made, and MC Owner agrees to pay the ROFO (RM) Parties any increase shown by such recomputation and vice versa; provided, however, that if any increase in the assessed value of the Real Property and/or Improvements results from improvements made to the Property by the ROFO (RM) Parties, then the ROFO (RM) Parties shall be solely responsible for any increase in taxes attributable thereto. With respect to tax appeals, any tax refunds or credits attributable to tax years prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs shall belong solely to MC Owner, regardless of whether such refunds are paid or credits are given before or after Closing. Any tax refunds or credits attributable to the tax year in which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between MC Owner and the ROFO (RM) Parties based on
their respective periods of ownership in such tax year, but only after giving effect to any tax exemption that may otherwise be available to the ROFO (RM) Parties post-Closing. For example, if the ROFO (RM) Parties is totally exempt from the payment of real estate taxes post-Closing, then the ROFO (RM) Parties would not share in any portion of the refund or credit. If, however, the ROFO (RM) Parties is only partially exempt, then the apportionment shall be based on each party’s respective percentage of the total real estate tax obligations of the Property for such tax year. The expenses of any tax appeals for the period in which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between the parties in the same manner as the refunds and/or credits. The provisions of this Section 10.4(a)(v) shall survive the Closing.
(vi) The value of fuel stored at the Real Property, at MC Owner’s most recent cost, including taxes, on the basis of a reading made within ten (10) days prior to the Closing by MC Owner’s supplier.
(vii) Reserved.

(xi) If at the time of Closing, the Real Property is affected by an assessment or assessments that are or may become payable in installments, the assessments payable on the date of or after Closing shall be payable by the ROFO (RM) Parties, and the assessments payable prior to Closing shall be paid by MC Owner at or prior to Closing and any such payments by MC Owner or the ROFO (RM) Parties shall be apportioned at Closing based on the customary rules and protocols of the location of each Property.
(xii) Such other items that are customarily prorated in transactions of this nature shall be ratably prorated in accordance with the customary rules and protocols of the location of each Property.
MC Owner will be charged and credited for the amounts of all of the Proration Items relating to the period up to and including the Proration Time, and the ROFO (RM) Parties will be charged and credited for all of the Proration Items relating to the period after the Proration Time. The estimated Closing prorations shall be set forth on a preliminary closing statement to be prepared by MC Owner and submitted to the ROFO (RM) Parties and Escrow Agent for review prior to the Closing Date (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”). The Preliminary Closing Statement, once finalized, shall be signed by the ROFO (RM) Parties, MC Owner and Escrow Agent, and shall be the “Closing Statement” for the transaction. The Closing Statement may be delivered electronically. The prorations shall be paid at Closing by the ROFO (RM) Parties to MC Owner (if the prorations result in a net credit to MC Owner) or by MC Owner to the ROFO (RM) Parties (if the prorations result in a net credit to the ROFO (RM) Parties) by increasing or reducing the Redemption Property Value. If the actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Closing Date, the prorations will be made at Closing on the basis of the best evidence then available; thereafter, when actual figures are received, re-prorations will be made on the basis of the actual figures, and a final cash settlement will be made between MC Owner and the ROFO (RM) Parties. No prorations will be made in relation to insurance premiums, and MC Owner’s insurance
policies will not be assigned to the ROFO (RM) Parties. The provisions of this Section 10.4(a) will survive the Closing for twelve (12) months; provided, however, that the provisions of Section 10.4(a)(v) shall survive until the date that is thirty (30) days following the ROFO (RM) Parties’ receipt of the final tax bill or the resolution of any tax appeal, whichever is later, with respect to each Property.
(b) The ROFO (RM) Parties will receive a credit on the Closing Statement for the prorated amount (as of the Proration Time) of all Rental previously paid to or collected by MC Owner and attributable to any period following the Proration Time.

Rental is “Delinquent” when it was due prior to the Closing Date, and payment thereof has not been made on or before the Proration Time. Delinquent Rental will not be prorated. The ROFO (RM) Parties agree to use good faith collection procedures during the first twelve (12) full calendar months after Closing with respect to the collection of any Delinquent Rental, but the ROFO (RM) Parties will have no liability for the failure to collect any such amounts and will not be required to pursue legal action to enforce collection of any such amounts owed to MC Owner by any Tenant. All sums collected by the ROFO (RM) Parties from and after Closing from MC Owner and/or each Tenant in respect of Delinquent Rental, Operating Expenses, or tenant billings for work orders, special items performed or provided at the request of a Tenant or other specific services, will be applied (i) first, to amounts which are then due and payable in connection with the month in which the Closing occurred, (ii) second, to amounts which are then due and payable in connection with the month or months following Closing, and (iii) third, to amounts which are then due and payable in connection with the month or months preceding Closing.

Upon the reconciliation by the ROFO (RM) Parties of the Operating Expenses billed to Tenants, and the amounts actually incurred for such calendar year, MC Owner and the ROFO (RM) Parties shall be liable for overpayments of Operating Expenses, and shall be entitled to payments from Tenants, as the case may be, on a pro-rata basis based upon each party’s period of ownership during such calendar year. MC Owner reserves the right to bill and collect from any Tenant directly for any Operating Expenses relating to any calendar year preceding the calendar year in which Closing occurs, but may not pursue any eviction actions or initiate any litigation in pursuit of such Operating Expenses. The provisions of this Section 10.4(c) will survive the Closing for fifteen (15) months, except that the preceding sentence of this Section 10.4(c) shall survive Closing without such 15-month limitation.
(d) With respect to specific tenant billings for work orders, special items performed or provided at the request of a Tenant or other specific services, which are collected by the ROFO (RM) Parties after the Closing Date but relate to the foregoing specific services rendered by MC Owner prior to

The ROFO (RM) Parties will pay to MC Owner at Closing an amount equal to any New Leasing Costs paid by MC Owner. In addition, the ROFO (RM) Parties shall be solely responsible for any free rent, rent credit(s) and/or rent abatement(s) (1) for periods on and after the Closing provided in any Leases in existence as of the Effective Date, and (2) provided in any Leases, entered into by MC Owner, and approved by the ROFO (RM) Parties, on or after the Effective Date in accordance with Section 7.1 of this Agreement.

Costs (which obligation of MC Owner and MCRLP shall survive the termination of this Agreement); (b) if such condition failure is applicable to the Redemption Property or properties under either of the Other PSAs which, in the aggregate, have an allocation of less than or equal to $50,000,000.00, amend this Agreement to remove the Redemption Property and replace it with the Substituted Redemption Property and adjust the Redemption Property Value to an amount equal to the fair market value of the Substituted Redemption Property; (c) enforce specific performance of MC Owner and MCRLP’s obligation to close the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms hereof and to convey the Redemption Property to the ROFO (RM) Parties (and the ROFO (RM) Parties shall have the right to file a lis pendens against the Redemption Property in connection therewith), it being understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of MC Owner and MCRLP hereunder (for clarification, in conjunction with its remedy under Section 13.1(c) hereof, ROFO (RM) Parties’ remedy of specific performance may be pursued with respect to all Properties not removed from this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.1(b)); or (d) waive such condition failure (except as prohibited pursuant to Section 9.1, unless agreed to by MC Owner and MCRLP) and close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The ROFO (RM) Parties expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of MC Owner’s and MCRLP’s default hereunder, except pursuant to this Section 13.1 or in connection with MC Owner’s and MCRLP’s willful failure to close the transactions contemplated hereby or seller under either of the Other PSAs willfully failing to close thereunder, in either which case, if specific performance is not available to the ROFO (RM) Parties hereunder or purchaser under the Other PSAs, the ROFO (RM) Parties shall have all available remedies available to the ROFO (RM) Parties at law and/or in equity. The ROFO (RM) Parties shall be deemed to have elected (a) or (b), as applicable, above if the ROFO (RM) Parties fail to notify MC Owner and MCRLP of its election prior to the date that is twenty (20) Business Days following the Scheduled Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13.1 will limit the ROFO (RM) Parties’ remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in pursuing remedies for a breach by MC Owner or MCRLP of any of the Termination Surviving Obligations. MC Owner and MCRLP and the ROFO (RM) Parties agree that any termination of either of the Other PSAs pursuant to the default by seller provisions in such Other PSA shall automatically terminate this Agreement pursuant to the corresponding provisions of this Agreement and the ROFO (RM) Parties shall have the right to pursue its applicable corresponding remedies with respect thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, if any representation or warranty of MC Owner or MCRLP was true when made but thereafter, prior to Closing, shall no longer be true in any material respect as a result of circumstances outside of the reasonable control of MC Owner or MCRLP, while such change shall be a failure of a condition to the ROFO (RM) Parties’ obligation to close, it shall not be a default by MC Owner or MCRLP.
Section 13.2 Default by the ROFO (RM) Parties. In the event the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein do not occur as provided herein by reason of any default of the ROFO (RM) Parties, the ROFO (RM) Parties and MC Owner and MCRLP agree it would be impractical and extremely difficult to fix the damages which MC Owner and MCRLP may suffer. The ROFO (RM) Parties and MC Owner and MCRLP hereby agree that if the ROFO (RM) Parties’ default is not cured within ten (10) Business Days after MC Owner’s or MCRLP’s notice to the ROFO (RM) Parties expressly setting forth such default (a) an amount equal to the Earnest Money Deposit (as such term is defined in the Other PSAs) which is payable to MC Owner’s Affiliates pursuant to the Other PSAs is a reasonable estimate of the total net detriment MC Owner’s Affiliates would suffer in the event the ROFO (RM) Parties default and fail to complete the Redemption Transaction, and (b) such amount will be the full, agreed and liquidated damages for the ROFO (RM) Parties’ default and failure to complete the Redemption Transaction, and will be MC Owner’s and MCRLP’s sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law or in equity) for any default of the ROFO (RM) Parties beyond the foregoing notice and cure period resulting in the failure of consummation of the Closing, whereupon this Agreement will terminate and MC Owner, MCRLP and the ROFO (RM) Parties will have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations. The payment of such amount as liquidated damages is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to MC Owner’s Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein
will limit MC Owner’s or MCRLP’s remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by the ROFO (RM) Parties of any of the Termination Surviving Obligations. MC Owner, MCRLP and the ROFO (RM) Parties agree that any termination of either of the Other PSAs pursuant to the default by purchaser provisions in such Other PSA shall automatically terminate this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the ROFO (RM) Parties shall have the right to cure any and all the ROFO (RM) Parties’ defaults by delivering all of the ROFO (RM) Parties’ closing deliverables under and in accordance with Section 10.2 of this Agreement and otherwise being ready, willing and able to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on the Scheduled Closing Date.

Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement
THIS SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of this day of , 20 , which date shall be the effective date of this Agreement, between , a (the “Tenant”) and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association, and having its principal offices in Charlotte, North Carolina (together with its successors and/or assigns the “Lender”).
The Tenant is the lessee under the lease described in Exhibit A attached hereto (as the same may from time to time be assigned, subleased, renewed, extended, amended, modified or supplemented, collectively the “Lease”).
The Lender has previously made or is about to make a loan to , a or its successor and/or assigns with respect to the landlord’s interest under the Lease (the “Landlord”), evidenced by a promissory note in the original principal amount of approximately $ executed by the Landlord and payable to the Lender and secured by a first priority deed of trust, mortgage or deed to secure debt on certain real and personal property and improvements (the “Premises”), recorded or to be recorded in the appropriate records of County, (the “Security Instrument”).
The Lender has requested the Tenant to confirm the fact that the Lease is subject and subordinate to the Security Instrument.
The Tenant is willing to confirm the subordination of the Lease, provided it obtains assurance from the Lender that its possession of the premises demised under the Lease (the “Demised Premises), which Demised Premises is all or a portion of the Premises, and its right to use any common areas will not be disturbed by reason of or in the event of the foreclosure of the Security Instrument.
The Lender is willing to give such assurance.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto do hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:
1. The Tenant hereby subordinates the Lease and all terms and conditions contained therein and all rights, options, liens and charges created thereby to the Security Instrument and the lien thereof, and to all present or future advances under the obligations secured thereby and to all renewals, extensions, amendments, modifications and/or supplements of same, to the full extent of all amounts secured thereby from time to time.
2. So long as no event of default on the part of the Tenant under the Lease shall exist which would entitle the Landlord to terminate the Lease, or if such an event of default shall exist, so long as the Tenant’s time to cure the default shall not have expired, the term of the Lease shall not be terminated or modified in any respect whatsoever and the Tenant’s right of possession to the Demised Premises and its rights in and to any common areas and its other rights arising out of the Lease will all be
fully recognized and protected by the Lender and shall not be disturbed, canceled, terminated or otherwise affected by reason of the Security Instrument or any action or proceeding instituted by the Lender to foreclose the Security Instrument, or any extension, renewal, consolidation or replacement of same, irrespective of whether the Tenant shall have been joined in any action or proceeding.
3. In the event that the Lender takes possession of the Premises, either as the result of foreclosure of the Security Instrument or accepting a deed to the Premises in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise, or the Premises shall be purchased at such a foreclosure by a third party, the Tenant shall attorn to the Lender or such third party and recognize the Lender or such third party as its landlord under the Lease, and the Lender or such third party will recognize and accept the Tenant as its tenant thereunder, whereupon, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the Lender or such third party and the Tenant for the full term thereof, together with all extensions and renewals thereof, and the Lender or such third party shall thereafter assume and perform all of the Landlord’s obligations, as the landlord under the Lease with the same force and effect as if the Lender or such third party were originally named therein as the Landlord; provided, however, that the Lender or such third party shall not be:
(a) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including the Landlord), except to the extent the Lender was furnished notice and opportunity to cure the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement prior to taking possession of such Premises; or
(b) subject to any offsets or defenses which the Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including the Landlord), except to the extent the Lender was furnished notice and opportunity to cure the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement prior to taking possession of such Premises; or
(c) bound by any rent or additional rent which the Tenant might have paid for more than two (2) months in advance to any prior landlord (including the Landlord); or
(d) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease not consented to in writing by the Lender.
4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, in the event the Lender or a third party takes possession of the Premises as provided in paragraph 3 above, the liability of the Lender or such third party under the Lease shall be limited to the Lender’s or such third parties, as the case may be, interest in the Premises, and upon any assignment or other transfer of the Lender’s or such third-party’s interest in the Premises, the Lender or such third party, as applicable, shall be discharged and released from any obligation or liability under the Lease arising or accruing after the date of such assignment or transfer.
5. Tenant agrees not to subordinate the Lease to any other lien or encumbrance which (i) affects the Premises under the Lease, or any part thereof, or (ii) is junior to the Security Instrument, without the express written consent of the Lender, and any such subordination or any such attempted subordination or agreement to subordinate without such consent of Lender, shall be void and of no force and effect.
6. Tenant agrees to provide copies of all notices given Landlord under the Lease to Lender at the following address:

7. In the event Landlord shall fail to perform or observe any of the terms, conditions or agreements in the Lease, Tenant shall give written notice thereof to Lender and Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure such default. Tenant shall not take any action with respect to such default under the Lease (including without limitation any action in order to terminate, rescind or avoid the Lease or to withhold any rent or other monetary obligations thereunder) for a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of such written notice by Lender; provided, however, that in the case of any default which cannot with diligence be cured within such thirty (30) day period, if Lender shall proceed promptly to cure such default and thereafter prosecute the curing of such default with diligence and continuity, then the time within which such default may be cured shall be extended for such period as may be necessary to complete the curing of such default with diligence and continuity.
8. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall in any way impair or affect the lien created by the Security Instrument, except as specifically set forth herein.
9. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that in the event of the assignment or transfer of the interest of the Lender to a party that assumes the Lender’s obligations and liabilities hereunder, all obligations and liabilities of the Lender under this Agreement shall terminate, and thereupon all such obligations and liabilities shall be the responsibility of the party to whom the Lender’s interest is assigned or transferred.
10. In the event of any litigation or other legal proceeding arising between the parties to this Agreement, whether relating to the enforcement of a party’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise, the prevailing party shall be entitled to receive its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of suit from the non-prevailing party in such amount as the court shall determine.
