If, in connection with a pending or anticipated sale of the Building by Landlord, the occurrence of a Reassessment is reasonably foreseeable by Landlord and the Proposition 13 Protection Amount attributable to such Reassessment can be reasonably quantified or estimated for each year of the Lease Term commencing with the year in which the Reassessment will occur, the terms of this Section 3.3.9.1.1(iv) shall apply to each such Reassessment. Upon notice to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to purchase the Proposition 13 Protection Amount relating to the applicable Reassessment (the “Applicable Reassessment”), within a reasonable period of time (but no earlier than 45 days) prior to the pending or anticipated sale of the Building by Landlord, by paying to Tenant an amount equal to the “Proposition 13 Purchase Price”, as that term is defined below, provided that the right of any successor of Landlord to exercise its right of repurchase hereunder shall not apply to any Reassessment which results from the sale of the Building pursuant to which such successor of Landlord became the Landlord under the Lease, as hereby amended. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s right to purchase the Proposition 13 Protection Amount shall expire and terminate upon the sale of the Building by Landlord if prior thereto Landlord did not exercise the right of purchase, or upon Landlord’s failure to pay the Proposition 13 Purchase Price to Tenant on or before the closing of such sale.

Upon such payment of the Proposition 13 Purchase Price, the provisions of Section 3.3.9.1.1 (ii) and (iii) above, of shall not apply to any Tax Increase attributable to the initial assessment Applicable Reassessment. Since Landlord, if Landlord exercises its repurchase right hereunder, will be estimating the Proposition 13 Purchase Price because a Reassessment has not yet occurred, then when such Reassessment occurs, if Landlord has underestimated the Proposition 13 Purchase Price, then upon notice by Landlord to Tenant, ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Rent next due shall be credited with the amount of such underestimation, and if Landlord overestimates the Proposition 13 Purchase Price, then upon notice by Landlord (to be given promptly following ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s receipt of notice of Reassessment) to Tenant, Rent next due shall be increased by the amount of the value of the San Diego Facility, the base, shell and core of the Building or the tenant improvements located in the Building, (ii) is attributable to assessments which were pending prior to the Reassessment or which would otherwise have occurred unrelated to the sale, or (iii) is attributable to the annual inflationary increase of real estate taxes.
