Landlord’s’ obligation to rebuild and repair under this Section shall in any event be limited to restoring the Building and any other property covered by Tenant’s insurance to substantially the condition in which the same existed prior to the casualty, and shall be further limited to the extent of the insurance proceeds (and Tenant’s deductible) paid to Landlord for such restoration. Tenant agrees that promptly after completion of such work by Landlord, it will proceed with reasonable diligence and at its sole cost and expense to rebuild, repair and restore its trade fixtures, equipment, furniture, cabling and personal property. Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with respect to such reconstruction as to not unreasonably interfere with the obligations of the parties hereunder. In no event shall any Rent be abated as a result of any damage or destruction to the Building/Premises.

 

g. A new Section 11.07 is added to the Lease as follows:

 

11.07 Tenant’s Termination Right

 

If Landlord undertakes the repair and rebuilding of the Building/Premises but fails to substantially complete the same within twenty-four (24) months following the casualty or damage, Tenant may deliver to Landlord written notice of Tenant’s intent to terminate the Lease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may assign or transfer the Lease or sublet the Premises, without the Landlord’s prior consent: (a) to a parent, subsidiary, or other affiliate of the Tenant, (b) to the purchaser of all, or substantially all, of (i) Tenant’s assets, or (ii) the membership interests or equity interest in Tenant, (c) to the surviving entity in any merger, consolidation, or conversion involving Tenant, or (d) in connection with the sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or new issuance of the stock or equity interests (including a controlling interest) of the direct or indirect interest of Tenant (each a “Permitted Transfers”); provided that: (1) Tenant delivers to Landlord prior written notice along with any documentation reasonably requested by Landlord evidencing Tenant’s compliance with the terms of this Section 15.06, (2) any such Permitted Transfer is not principally for the purpose of transferring Tenant’s leasehold estate and was made for a legitimate business purpose and not primarily to circumvent the provisions of the Lease, (3) any such Permitted Transfer does not result in the dissolution or termination of Tenant, and (4) neither the tangible net worth of Tenant nor the financial wherewithal of Tenant is reduced following such Permitted Transfer, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord. No Permitted Transfer shall relieve Tenant or Guarantor of any obligation under this Lease, including Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent and Additional Rent hereunder.

 

i. As of the Effective Date, Exhibit B of the Lease is amended to provide that Base Rent is abated from June 1, 2020 until July 31, 2020.
