Relevant Group is obligated to give the Union advance notice of any sale of the Project, and must obtain a written assumption of the Agreement from its successor as a condition of such sale.

UNITE HERE Local 11 looks forward to continuing to support the Morrison Hotel redevelopment project and working with any successor owner to implement the terms of the Agreement.
