The capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the same definitions as set forth in the Lease to the extent that such capitalized terms are defined therein and not redefined in this Amendment.

 
 

 

7.3 Submission of this Amendment by Landlord is not an offer to enter into this Amendment but rather is a solicitation for such an offer by Tenant. Landlord shall not be bound by this Amendment until Landlord has executed and delivered the same to Tenant.

If the foregoing representation is untrue at any time during the Extended Term, an Event of Default under the Lease will be deemed to have occurred, without the necessity of notice to Tenant. Change in Tenant Identity. The undersigned Tenant, SunValley Solar, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("New Tenant"), hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that (i) the New Tenant has, by operation of law or otherwise, through a series of corporate transfers and dissolutions, assumed all rights and obligations of the original named tenant under the Lease Zhi Jian Zhang, an individual (the "Original Tenant") retroactively effective as of .5/31/2008, (the "Transfer Effective Date") and, as of the Transfer Effective Date, the New Tenant is deemed the tenant under the Lease, subject to all the terms and provisions of the Lease; and (ii) neither the Original Tenant, nor any successors in interest to such Original Tenant's interest under the Lease (other than the undersigned New Tenant) have retained any interest under the Lease, because each such entity, whether by operation of law or otherwise, has assigned all of its right, title and interest under the Lease to its respective successor in interest, and no party, other than the undersigned New Tenant, has any right, title or interest in the Lease as a tenant thereunder. The New Tenant hereby ratifies and confirms the Lease, and agrees that, as of the Transfer Effective Date, it is the tenant under the Lease and it is bound by all terms and provisions of the Lease affecting the tenant thereunder. The undersigned Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord and the Landlord Entities harmless from any costs or liability (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) arising as a result of a breach of the foregoing representations.

The obligations of Landlord under the Lease are not intended to and shall not be personally binding on, nor shall any resort be had to the private properties of, any of its trustees or board of directors and officers, as the case may be, its investment manager, the general partners thereof, or any beneficiaries, stockholders, employees, or agents of Landlord or the investment manager, and in no case shall Landlord be liable to Tenant hereunder for any lost profits, damage to business, or any form of special, indirect or consequential damage.
