Friedman, J.P., Sweeny, Tom, Moulton, JJ.
Order, Appellate Term, First Department, entered on or about April 27, 2018, which reversed an order of the Civil Court, New York County (Lisa A. Sokoloff, J.), entered on or about May 31, 2017, denying petitioner's motion for summary judgment awarding it possession of certain premises, granted the motion, and remanded the matter to the Civil Court for a determination of use and occupancy and reasonable attorneys' fees, unanimously affirmed, without costs.
It is undisputed that respondent tenant received a notice of default on or about September 21, 2015, in which petitioner landlord demanded that it cure certain defaults under the lease by October 20, 2015. It is also undisputed that respondent failed either to cure the defaults or to obtain a Yellowstone injunction (see First Natl. Stores v. Yellowstone Shopping Ctr., 21 N.Y.2d 630, 290 N.Y.S.2d 721, 237 N.E.2d 868 [1968] ) before the end of the cure period, and did not respond to petitioner until after petitioner had served its notice of cancellation of lease. Accordingly, the lease was terminated and cannot be revived ( 166 Enters. Corp. v. I G Second Generation Partners, L.P., 81 A.D.3d 154, 159, 917 N.Y.S.2d 143 [1st Dept. 2011] ).
We have considered respondent's remaining contentions and find them unavailing.
