LEASING 2010: A TENANT OPPORTUNITY OR APOCALYPSE NOW?
In today's dynamic commercial real estate environment, a tenant can find itself in the back seat or in the driver's seat. This panel of industry veterans will address both scenarios, sharing the perspectives of tenants, landlords, lenders and other affected parties. The panel will focus on providing current, practical strategies and action plans for dealing with a variety of landlord-tenant scenarios. Specifically, the panel will explore alternatives to manage a financially troubled tenant's lease obligation exposure as well as evaluate opportunities for stronger tenants to create value through alteration of existing lease relationships.
