Landlord warrants that PNC Bank, as of the date of this lease, has not given notice of any default under its lease agreement, that PNC Bank will execute the said Lease Termination Agreement and that PNC Bank will not amend the said lease of Lease Termination Agreement without the prior written consent of Tenant. On execution of this lease by both parties and approval of the branch bank by the banking authorities referred to in Article XXI, Landlord shall execute the Lease Termination Agreement.
