Assignment Transfer Subletting Nondisturbance and Attornment Clause Samples

This clause governs the conditions under which a tenant may assign, transfer, or sublet their interest in a leased property, as well as the rights and obligations of both parties if the property is sold or transferred to a new owner. It typically outlines whether the landlord’s consent is required for assignment or subletting, and may specify procedures for requesting approval or exceptions for certain types of transfers. The clause also addresses nondisturbance, ensuring that a tenant’s rights are protected if the property changes hands, and attornment, which obligates the tenant to recognize and pay rent to a new landlord. Its core function is to balance the tenant’s flexibility to transfer their leasehold interest with the landlord’s need to control occupancy and maintain stability, while also protecting tenants from eviction in the event of a property sale or foreclosure.

  • SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT 24.1 This Lease and the estate, interest and rights hereby created are subordinate to any mortgage now or hereafter placed upon the Building or the Land or any estate or interest therein, including, without limitation, any mortgage on any leasehold estate, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of the same as well as any substitutions therefor. Tenant agrees that in the event any person, firm, corporation or other entity acquires the right to possession of the Building or the Land, including any mortgagee or holder of any estate or interest having priority over this Lease, Tenant shall, if requested by such person, firm, corporation or other entity, attorn to and become the tenant of such person, firm, corporation or other entity, upon the same terms and conditions as are set forth herein for the balance of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any mortgagee may, at any time, subordinate its mortgage to this Lease, without Tenant’s consent, by notice in writing to Tenant, and thereupon this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage without regard to their respective dates of execution and delivery, and in that event, such mortgagee shall have the same rights with respect to this Lease as though it had been executed prior to the execution and delivery of the mortgage. 24.2 Upon request, and within ten (10) Business Days written notice given by or on behalf of Landlord, any mortgagee, any ground or superior lessor of the Building or the Land, or other successor to the interests of Landlord thereto, Tenant shall execute and deliver, as appropriate, any instruments in recordable form as may be required by such parties, including a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement substantially similar to the form attached hereto as Exhibit “H”, in order to confirm or effect the subordination or priority of this Lease, as the case may be, and the attornment of Tenant to future landlords in accordance with the terms of Section 24 and such parties’ requirements. Tenant’s failure to execute and deliver the Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement within ten (10) Business Days notice shall (i) constitute an Event of Default and (ii) serve to irrevocably appoint Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such agreement for and on behalf of Tenant. 24.3 In addition, and within ten (10) Business Days written notice given by or on behalf of Landlord, Tenant will from time to time enter into such amendments of this Lease as may be reasonably required by a lender to Landlord.

  • Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment In the event that Landlord places any Facility Mortgage on the Leased Property, Tenant agrees to promptly enter into, execute and deliver to the requesting party a commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement with any such Facility Mortgagee, which shall acknowledge that this Lease, Tenant's interest hereunder and Tenant's leasehold interest in and to the Leased Property are junior, inferior, subordinate and subject in right, title, interest, lien, encumbrance, priority and all other respects to the lien of any Facility Mortgage or Mortgages now or hereafter in force and effect upon or encumbering Landlord's interest in the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and to all collateral assignments by Landlord to any third party or parties of any of Landlord's rights under this Lease or the rents, issues and profits thereof or therefrom as security for any liability or indebtedness, direct, indirect or contingent, of Landlord to such third party or parties, and to all future modifications, extensions, renewals, consolidations and replacements of, and all amendments and supplements to any such mortgage, mortgages or assignments; provided such lender agrees not to disturb Tenant's occupancy of the Leased Property or its rights under this Lease as long as there is no existing and continuing Event of Default. If, within fifteen (15) days following Tenant's receipt of a written request by Landlord or the holder or proposed holder of any such Facility Mortgage, Tenant shall fail or refuse or shall have not executed any such subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement, Tenant shall be in breach and default of its obligation to do so and of this Lease and Landlord shall be entitled thereupon to exercise any and all remedies available to Landlord pursuant to this Lease or otherwise provided by law.

  • Assignment/Subletting A. Lessor shall have the right to sell, convey or mortgage all, but not less than all, of the Properties or to assign its right, title and interest as Lessor under this Lease in whole, but not in part; provided, however, the prohibition on Lessor's right to sell, convey or mortgage less than all of the Properties shall not restrict Lessor's right to convey Properties to Lessee pursuant to the provisions of Sections 21.B, 23.A(ix), 57 or 58 hereof. In the event of any such sale or assignment other than a security assignment, provided Lessee receives written notice that such purchaser or assignee has assumed all of Lessor's obligations under this Lease, Lessee shall attorn to such purchaser or assignee and Lessor shall be relieved, from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, of liability for the performance of any obligation of Lessor contained herein, except for obligations or liabilities accrued prior to such assignment or sale. B. Lessee acknowledges that Lessor has relied both on the business experience and creditworthiness of Lessee and upon the particular purposes for which Lessee intends to use the Properties in entering into this Lease. Without the prior written consent of Lessor and except as provided below: (i) Lessee shall not assign, transfer or convey this Lease or any interest therein, whether by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) no Subject Transfer shall occur; (iii) no interest in Lessee or any of the Guarantors shall be pledged, encumbered, hypothecated or assigned as collateral for any obligation of any of the Lessee Entities; and (iv) Lessee shall not sublet all or any part of any of the Properties. It is expressly agreed that Lessor may withhold or condition such consent based upon such matters as Lessor may in its reasonable discretion determine, including, without limitation, the experience and creditworthiness of any assignee, the assumption by any assignee of all of Lessee's obligations hereunder by undertakings enforceable by Lessor, the transfer to any assignee of all necessary licenses and franchises to continue operating the Properties for the purposes herein provided, receipt of such representations and warranties from any assignee as Lessor may request, including such matters as its organization, existence, good standing and finances and other matters, whether or not similar in kind. At the time of any assignment of this Lease which is approved by Lessor, the assignee shall assume all of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease pursuant to Lessor's standard form of assumption agreement. No such assignment nor any subletting of any of the Properties shall relieve Lessee of its obligations respecting this Lease or Guarantors of any of their obligations respecting the Guaranty. Any rentals owing under a sublease which are in excess of the rentals owing hereunder may be retained by Lessee unless an Event of Default has occurred, in which case, Lessor shall be entitled to receive such excess rentals applicable to the period during which such Event of Default is continuing. Any assignment, transfer, conveyance, pledge, mortgage or subletting in violation of this Section shall be voidable at the sole option of Lessor. C. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 26.B, Lessor's consent to a Subject Transfer shall not be required if each of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Lease as of the date on which Lessee gives the Subject Transfer Notice (as hereinafter defined) and as of the date on which such Subject Transfer is consummated; (ii) after giving effect to such Subject Transfer, whether as a single transaction or as a series of transactions, the Lessee Entities, including any surviving entity as a result of such Subject Transfer and/or successor of Lessee or any of the Guarantors, shall have a consolidated net worth determined in accordance with GAAP of not less than the sum of (1) $29,690,500.00, plus (2) fifty (50%) percent of Net Income, if positive, for each fiscal quarter of the Lessee Entities ending after the Effective Date (i.e., exclusive of any negative Net Income for any such fiscal quarter) determined on a cumulative basis subsequent to the Effective Date, plus (3) seventy-five (75%) percent of the proceeds of any issuance of equity securities of any of the Lessee Entities or other contributions to the capital of any of the Lessee Entities subsequent to the Effective Date (the "Net Worth Condition"); (iii) Lessee and Guarantors, including any surviving entity as a result of such Subject Transfer and/or successor of Lessee or any of the Guarantors, shall not be released from any of their respective obligations under this Lease and the Guaranty, and any such surviving entity or successor entity, as applicable, has assumed in writing or by operation of law (provided Lessor has received a satisfactory opinion of counsel confirming that such assumption will occur by operation of law) all obligations of Lessee under this Lease or Guarantors under the Guaranty, as applicable; (iv) after giving effect to such Subject Transfer, whether as a single transaction or as a series of transactions, the Lessee Entities shall have a Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as hereinafter defined) determined as of the end of Lessee's most recently closed fiscal quarter on a proforma basis after giving effect to such Subject Transfer of at least equal to 1.50:1 (the "Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Condition") (v) after such Subject Transfer, the Properties will be operated as a Permitted Facility or such other nationally or regionally recognized casual dining concepts reasonably acceptable to Lessor; (vi) the Lessee Entities, including any surviving entity as a result of such Subject Transfer and/or successor of Lessee or any of the Guarantors, shall have at least 5 years' experience operating a multi-unit casual dining restaurant concept with the same or greater number of units as are operated by the Lessee Entities immediately prior to the consummation of such Subject Transfer; (vii) if and to the extent that the loans contemplated by the Loan Documents have been subject to a Securitization, Lender shall have received a notice or confirmation of the rating agencies which have issued ratings in connection with such Securitization that such Subject Transfer will not cause any of such rating agencies to downgrade, modify, withdraw or qualify any of such ratings (the "Rating Agency Condition"); and (viii) Lessee shall have delivered to Lessor a certification that all of the conditions to such Subject Transfer set forth in this Section 26.C have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Lessee is unable to satisfy the Net Worth Condition, the Corporate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Condition and/or the Rating Agency Condition, such conditions shall be deemed satisfied if Lessee shall (1) pay to Lessor the Subject Transfer Rent Prepayment Amount (as hereinafter defined), and (2) pay to Lessor the Prepayment Charges payable by Lessor to Lender as a result of the payment of the Subject Transfer Rent Prepayment Amount. Upon Lessee's payment of the Subject Transfer Rent Prepayment Amount and Prepayment Charges as contemplated by the preceding sentence, Lessor agrees that the Base Monthly Rental beginning with the calendar month immediately following the month in which such payment is made (or, if such payment is made on the first day of a calendar month, beginning with the calendar month in which such payment is made) shall be equal to the Base Monthly Rental then in effect reduced by the Subject Transfer Rent Reduction Amount (as hereinafter defined) For purposes of this Section 26.C, the following terms shall be defined as set forth below:

Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it has no right or option of any nature whatsoever, whether pursuant to the Lease or otherwise, to purchase the Premises or the Property, or any portion thereof or any interest therein, and to the extent that Tenant has had, or hereafter acquires, any such right or option, the same is hereby acknowledged to be subject and subordinate to the Mortgage and is hereby waived and released as against Lender.
