<br />instruments have consented to the provisions of this clause, and agrees to provide true copies of all such consents to
<br />the United States Senate Sergeant at Arms promptly upon demand.
<br />
<br />In the event of any sale of the Leased Premises or any portion thereof by foreclosure of the lien of any such mortgage,
<br />deed of trust or other security instrument, or the giving of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Tenant will be deemed to
<br />have attorned to any purchaser, purchasers, transferee or transferees of the Leased Premises or any portion thereof
<br />and its or their successors and assigns, and any such purchasers and transferees will be deemed to have assumed all
<br />obligations of the Landlord under this Lease, so as to establish direct privity of estate and contract between Tenant and
<br />such purchasers or transferees, with the same force, effect and relative priority in time and right as if the Lease had
<br />initially been entered into between such purchasers or transferees and the Tenant; provided, further, that the Tenant
<br />and such purchasers or transferees shall, with reasonable promptness following any such sale or deed delivery in
<br />lieu of foreclosure, execute all such revisions to this Lease, or other writings, as shall be necessary to document the
<br />foregoing relationship.
<br />
<br />None of the foregoing provisions may be deemed or construed to imply a waiver of the Tenant's rights as a United
<br />States Government entity.
<br />27. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE(S): Tenant will cooperate on Landlord’s request for an estoppel certificate relating to the
<br />Leased Premises, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord should request an estoppel certificate thirty (30)
<br />days prior to the date needed and send a properly completed request form to the Tenant with a copy to the United
<br />States Senate Sergeant at Arms at the addresses provided for notice in Section 2 of the Lease. The Landlord shall
<br />provide a copy of the signed estoppel certificate to the Sergeant at Arms’ State Office Liaison promptly upon receipt of
<br />the certificate from the Tenant.
<br />28. TENANT’S PERFORMANCE: The Tenant enters into this Lease on behalf of the United States Senate. However,
<br />neither the Senate nor its Officers assume any liability for the performance of the Lease. Payments approved by the
<br />Sergeant at Arms and disbursed by the Secretary of the Senate of amounts due the Landlord by the Tenant under the
<br />terms of this Lease are made solely on behalf of the Senator, as tenant of the Lease, in the Senator's official and
<br />representational capacity. The Landlord agrees to look solely to the Tenant for default of payment or otherwise, and
<br />such Senator, in her official capacity, assumes all liability for performance of this Lease. Landlord shall provide Tenant
<br />and the Senate Sergeant at Arms written notification of any default made by Tenant under the terms of this Lease. Prior
<br />to the Landlord taking any action against Tenant for default, Tenant shall have sixty (60) days to cure any default after
<br />receipt of written notification from Landlord; however, if such default cannot be cured within such period, Tenant shall
<br />have such reasonable period of time as needed to cure such default. Tenant shall not be subject to surcharges, charges,
<br />attorney’s fees, interest, penalties or similar fees arising from Tenant's default or otherwise.
<br />29. CONFLICT OF INTEREST: The Landlord certifies and warrants that the Landlord has no conflict of interest, direct or
<br />indirect, financial or otherwise, which would be applicable to the performance of the obligations covered by this Lease.
<br />If an allegation of a conflict of interest is brought to the attention of the United States Senate, the Landlord agrees to
<br />fully cooperate with any investigation of the allegation(s), and will disclose to the United States Senate any other
<br />contract(s) to which the Landlord is a party, public or private, or which the Landlord undertakes during the period of this
<br />Lease, including contracts entered into during the period of this Lease, which include duties to be fulfilled after the
<br />termination of this Lease. Landlord further certifies and warrants that this Lease is entered into at fair market value as
<br />the result of a bona fide, arms-length, marketplace transaction. The Landlord and Tenant certify that the Parties are not
<br />relatives nor have had, or continue to have, a professional or legal relationship, except as a Landlord and Tenant.
<br />Further, Landlord certifies and warrants that Landlord is not currently suspended, debarred, or otherwise ineligible from
<br />contracting with the Government.
<br />30. INCORPORATION: This Lease constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and each Party hereto agrees
<br />and acknowledges that there are no other agreements, understandings or obligations except as those set forth herein.
<br />31. MODIFICATIONS: Any changes, additions, modifications, or amendments to the Lease agreement which are
<br />inconsistent with the sections set forth herein shall have no force and effect to the extent of such inconsistency unless
<br />modified by mutual written agreement by the Parties and approved by the United States Senate Sergeant at Arms.
<br />Copies of any proposed modifications shall promptly be provided to the United States Senate Sergeant at Arms at the
<br />notice address in Section 2 of this Lease. Any changes, additions, modifications or amendments to the Lease
