ARTICLE 15
<br />SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT
<br />15.1 Subordination and Nondisturbance. This Lease is and shall be subject and
<br />subordinate to the lien of any first priority Mortgage which now or at any time hereafter may be
<br />placed upon the Premises, or any portion thereof or interest therein., and to any replacements,
<br />renewals, amendments, modifications, extensions, assignments or refinancing of any of the
<br />foregoing, and to each and every advance made under any Mortgage, unless the Mortgagee
<br />requires in writing that this Lease be superior thereto. Tenant agrees at any time hereafter, and
<br />from time to time within thirty (30) days after written demand of Landlord, to execute and
<br />deliver to Landlord commercially reasonable documentation that may be reasonably required to
<br />effect or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to the lien of any such Mortgage.
<br />It is agreed, nevertheless, that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
<br />neither Tenant's right to quiet enjoyment under this Lease, nor the right of Tenant to continue to
<br />occupy the Premises and all portions thereof, and to conduct its business thereon in accordance
<br />with the covenants, conditions, provisions, terms and agreements of this Lease, nor any other
<br />rights of Tenant pursuant to this Lease, including without limitation, its rights to acquire the
<br />Premises as provided in Article 21, its rights regarding insurance proceeds and condemnation
<br />awards as provided in Articles 12 and 13, shall be interfered with or disturbed by Landlord or a
<br />Mortgagee or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord or a Mortgagee, and none of such
<br />rights shall be terminated or otherwise affected by a foreclosure of a Mortgage. Any
<br />subordination agreement or similar instrument, release or document shall expressly provide
<br />language of nondisturbance so as to effectuate the provisions of this Section and the protection of
<br />the aforesaid rights of Tenant. In addition, Landlord shall cause any Mortgagee currently
<br />holding a Mortgage which is superior to this Lease, to agree in writing in a manner reasonably
<br />satisfactory to Tenant not to interfere with or disturb Tenant's rights as aforesaid so long as no
<br />Event of Default pursuant to which Landlord has rights to terminate this Lease or Tenant's
<br />possession of the Premises is continuing. Any subordination agreement or similar instrument,
<br />release or document shall also expressly include language whereby such Mortgagee, for itself
<br />and its successors and assigns, and for any purchaser at a foreclosure sale under the Mortgage or
<br />any transferee who acquires Landlord's interest in the Premises by deed in lieu of foreclosure or
<br />otherwise (Mortgagee or such other transferee being termed herein the `New Landlord")
<br />covenants that in the event such New Landlord succeeds to Landlord's interest in the Premises
<br />provided no Event of Default exists, then this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and
<br />such New Landlord shall recognize this Lease and Tenant's rights hereunder, binding such New
<br />Landlord to the performance of Landlord's obligations under this Lease based on occurrences
<br />arising from and after the date such New Landlord becomes the Landlord under this Lease,
<br />subject, however, to all limitation of the liability of the Landlord under this Lease and Tenant
<br />shall attorn to Landlord in accordance with Section 15.2. The lien of any Mortgage shall not
<br />cover Tenant's trade fixtures, equipment or other personal property of Tenant located in or on the
<br />Premises. At Tenant's request, Landlord agrees to execute and deliver to Tenant's lender, from
<br />time to time, a landlord's waiver, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord,
<br />confirming that Landlord claims no lien, on Tenant's trade fixtures, equipment or personal
<br />property.
<br />15.2 Attornment. If a New Landlord shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this
<br />Lease or to ownership of the Premises, whether through foreclosure, or the delivery of a deed in
<br />In
