Any such assignment takes effect only if and when the assignee files written notice of the assignment together with a true copy of the instrume nt of assignment with the Tenant and the U.S. Sergeant at Arms, pursuant to the notification terms enumerated in Section 2 of this Lease. Unless otherwise stated in this Lease, payments to an assignee of any amounts due or to become due under this Lease assigned may, to the extent specified in the Act, be subject to reduction or set -off. Tenant agrees not to assign or sublet the Leased Premises during the course of the Lease. 24.

Notice shall be sent to the Tenant and United States Senate Sergeant at Arms at the addresses in Section 2 of the Lease. Any sale or transfer of Property, Building, or Leased Premises shall comply with the Act. 25. BANKRUPTCY AND FORECLOSURE: In the event that Landlord is placed in bankruptcy proceedings, whether voluntary or involuntary; receives notice that the Property, Building, or Leased Premises is to be foreclosed upon; or any other similar occurrence, the Landlord agrees to notify Tenan t and the United States Senate Sergeant at Arms within thirty (30) days in writing at the addresses provided in Section 2 of this Lease. 26. SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT: Landlord warrants that it holds such title to or other interest in the Leased Premises and other Property as is necessary to the Tenant's access to the Leased Premises and full use and enjoyment thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. Tena nt agrees, in consideration of the warranties and conditions set forth in this clause, that this Lease is subject and subordinate to any and all recorded mortgages, deeds of trust and other liens now or hereafter existing or imposed upon the Leased Premises, and to any renewal, modification or extension thereof. It is the intention of the Parties that this provision shall be self -operative and that no further instrument shall be required to effect the present o r subsequent subordination of this Lease. Tenant agrees, however, within thirty (30) business days next following the Tenant and the United States Senate Sergeant at Arms receipt of a written demand, to execute such instruments as Landlord may reasonably r equest to evidence further the subordination of this Lease to any existing or future mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest pertaining to the Leased Premises, and to any water, sewer or access easement necessary or desirable to serve the Leased Premises or adjoining Property owned in whole or in part by Landlord if such easement does not interfere with the full enjoyment of any right granted the Tenant under this Lease. No such subordination, to either existing or future mortgages, deeds of trust or other lien or security instrument shall operate to affect adversely any right of the Tenant under this Lease so long as the Tenant is not in default under this Lease.
