Subtenant shall be solely responsible for all costs required to be paid to Prime Landlord pursuant to the terms of the Lease in connection with the review, consideration, and documentation of any Transfer proposed by Subtenant hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Sublandlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Sublandlord of any provision of this Sublease or to be a consent to any Transfer.

Each Transfer shall be subject to all of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions contained in this Sublease.

In the event of any breach or default by Subtenant hereunder or under the Prime Lease, Sublandlord shall have each and all of the rights and remedies afforded Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease.
