<br /> within thirty(30) days in writing at the addresses provided in Section 2 of this Lease.
<br /> 25. SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT: Landlord warrants that it holds such title to or other
<br /> interest in the Leased Premises and other Property as is necessary to the Tenant's access to the Leased Premises
<br /> and full use and enjoyment thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. Tenant agrees, in consideration of
<br /> the warranties and conditions set forth in this clause,that this Lease is subject and subordinate to any and all recorded
<br /> mortgages, deeds of trust and other liens now or hereafter existing or imposed upon the Leased Premises, and to any
<br /> renewal,modification or extension thereof. It is the intention of the Parties that this provision shall be self-operative and
<br /> that no further instrument shall be required to effect the present or subsequent subordination of this Lease. Tenant
<br /> agrees, however, within thirty(30) business days next following the Tenant and the United States Senate Sergeant at
<br /> Arms receipt of a written demand,to execute such instruments as Landlord may reasonably request to evidence further
<br /> the subordination of this Lease to any existing or future mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest pertaining to
<br /> the Leased Premises, and to any water, sewer or access easement necessary or desirable to serve the Leased
<br /> Premises or adjoining Property owned in whole or in part by Landlord if such easement does not interfere with the full
<br /> enjoyment of any right granted the Tenant under this Lease.
<br /> No such subordination, to either existing or future mortgages, deeds of trust or other lien or security instrument shall
<br /> operate to affect adversely any right of the Tenant under this Lease so long as the Tenant is not in default under this
<br /> Lease. Landlord will include in any future mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument to which this Lease
<br /> becomes subordinate, or in a separate non-disturbance agreement, a provision to the foregoing effect. Landlord
<br /> warrants that the holders of all notes or other obligations secured by existing mortgages,deeds of trust or other security
<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 /> 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
