forth in this Lease shall apply equally to the assignee. The failure or refusal of Landlord to
approve a requested assignment shall not relieve Tenant of its obligations hereunder,
including payment of rentals,fees and charges,under the terms of this Lease.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, upon not less than thirty
(30) days' written notice to Landlord, Tenant may assign all or part of the Premises to any
parent, subsidiary or affiliated corporation of Tenant. In this event, prior to the effective
date of such assignment, the assignee shall enter into a written agreement with Landlord
14
that all terms, covenants and agreements set forth in this Lease shall apply to the assignee,
and that the assignee shall be bound fully by the terms and conditions of this Lease the same
as if it had originally executed this Lease. Tenant agrees that the assignee's failure to
execute such written agreement shall nullify the attempted assignment.
18.3 Subletting.
In the event that Tenant requests Landlord's approval to sublease any portion of or
all of the Premises, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a copy of the'proposed sublease or a
written summary of the material terms and conditions to be contained in the proposed
sublease. Tenant shall submit to Landlord a copy of the proposed sublease or a written
summary of the material terms and conditions to be contained in the proposed sublease.
Tenant agrees that Landlord may refuse to approve a proposed sublease if Landlord has
substantially similar space on the Premises that is not leased at the time. If Landlord
approves a sublease where the rentals, fees and charges for the subleased premises exceed
the rentals, fees and charges payable by Tenant under the terms of this Lease, Tenant shall
pay Landlord such excess amount of the rentals, fees and charges; provided, however, that
Tenant may deduct its actual administrative costs and expenses in matters therewith, which
shall in no event exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the specified sublease rental. Landlord's
consent to one sublease shall not be deemed to be a consent by Landlord to any subsequent
sublease proposal.
19. LIENS BY TENANT.
Tenant acknowledges that it has no authority to engage in any act or to make any contract
which may create or be the foundation for any lien upon the property or interest in the property of
Landlord. If any such purported lien is created or filed, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall
liquidate and discharge the same within thirty(30) days of such creation or filing. Tenant's failure
to discharge any such purported lien shall constitute a breach of this Lease and Landlord may
terminate this Lease immediately. However, Tenant's financial obligation to Landlord to liquidate.
and discharge such lien shall continue in effect following termination of this Lease and until such a
time as the lien is discharged.
20. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS.

Tenant covenants and agrees that it shall not engage in any unlawful use of the Premises.
Tenant further agrees that it shall not knowingly permit its officers, agents, and employees to
engage in any unlawful use of the Premises. Knowingly unlawful use of the Premises by Tenant
shall constitute a breach of this Lease and grounds for immediate termination by the City.
22. NON-DISCRIMINATION COVENANT.

the consideration herein, agrees as a covenant running with the land that no person shall be

person shall be excluded from the provision of any services on or in the construction of any
