WITNESSETH: 
 
 
WHEREAS, Lessee has entered into a lease dated       (hereinafter referred to as “Lease”) for 
certain premises located at      , said premises more particularly described in said Lease, and 
  
 
WHEREAS, Lender has made a loan to Lessor,      , in the sum of $      secured by a      , 
on the Lessor’s interest in the premises (the “Security Agreement”) of which the leased premises are a 
portion, recorded in the official records of the Maricopa County Recorder’s Office, and 
 
 
WHEREAS, Lessee has agreed to the subordination of the Lease to the Security Agreement on 
the condition that it is assured of continued use and occupancy of the premises under the terms of said 
Lease and this SNDA, and 
 
 
WHEREAS, Lender agrees to such continued use and occupancy by Lessee provided that by 
these present Lessee agrees to recognize and attorn to Lender or purchaser in the event of foreclosure or 
otherwise. 
 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, it 
is hereby mutually covenanted and agreed as follows: 
 
 
1. In the event it should become necessary to foreclose the Security Agreement or Lender should 
otherwise come into possession of the premises, Lender will not join Lessee under said Lease 
in summary or foreclosure proceedings and will not disturb the use and occupancy of Lessee 
under said Lease so long as Lessee is not in default under any of the terms, covenants, or 
conditions of said Lease; and has not prepaid the rent except monthly in advance as provided by 
the terms of said Lease.

   Amendment No. 4

assumption shall not be deemed of itself an acknowledgement of such purchaser of the validity 
of any then existing claims of Lessee against the prior lessor.  All rights and obligations herein  
 
and hereunder to continue as though such foreclosure proceedings had not been brought, except 
as aforesaid.  Lessee agrees to execute and deliver to any such purchaser such further assurance
