elect. Tenant shall also have the right, at its sole risk and expense and in conformity with

said lien is not removed within thirty (30) days of recordation thereof; or
c. Tenant shall default in the observance or performance of any of the
covenants and agreements required to be performed and observed by Tenant hereunder for a
period of thirty (30) days after notice to Tenant in writing of such default (or if such default shall

within the thirty (30) days and diligently prosecuted the same to completion); or
d. Tenant has abandoned the premises; or
e. Tenant has been adjudged bankrupt.
Landlord shall be then entitled to its election to exercise concurrently or successively, at
Landlord's absolute discretion, any one or more of the following rights:
i. Terminate this Lease by giving Tenant notice of termination, in which event
this Lease shall expire and terminate on the date specified in such notice of termination, with the
same force and effect as though the date so specified were the date herein originally fixed as the
termination date of the term of this Lease, and all rights of Tenant under this Lease and in and to
the Premises shall expire and terminate, and Tenant shall remain liable for all obligations under
this Lease arising up to the date of such termination, and Tenant shall surrender the Premises to
Landlord on the date specified in such notice; or
ii. Terminate this Lease as provided herein and recover from Tenant all
damages Landlord may incur by reason of Tenant's default, including, without limitation, a sum
which, at the date of such termination, represents the then value of the excess, if any, of(a)the
Rent and all other sums which would have been payable hereunder by Tenant for the period
commencing with the day following the date of such termination and ending with the date herein
before set for the expiration of the full term hereby granted, over (b) the aggregate reasonable
rental value of the Premises for the same period, all of which excess sum shall be deemed
immediately due and payable; or
Page 4 of 10
(00402439.1 306-9001821)
iii. Without terminating this Lease, declare immediately due and payable all
Rent and other amounts due and coming due under this Lease for the entire remaining term
hereof, together with all other amounts previously due, at once; provided, however, that such
payment shall not be deemed a penalty or liquidated damages but shall merely constitute
payment in advance of rent for the remainder of said term. Upon making such payment, Tenant
shall be entitled to receive from Landlord all rents received by Landlord from other assignees,
tenants, and subtenants on account of said Premises during the term of this Lease, provided that
the monies to which tenant shall so become entitled shall in no event exceed the entire amount
actually paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the preceding sentence less all costs, expenses
and attorney's fees of Landlord incurred in connection with the reletting of the Premises; or
iv. Without terminating this Lease, and with or without notice to Tenant,
Landlord may in its own name but as agent for Tenant enter into and upon and take possession
of the Premises or any part thereof, and, at landlord's option, remove persons and property
therefrom, and such property, if any, may be removed and stored in a warehouse or elsewhere
at the cost of, and for the account of Tenant, all without being deemed guilty of trespass or
becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby, and Landlord may rent
the Premises or any portion thereof as the agent of Tenant with or without advertisement, and
by private negotiations and for any term upon such terms and conditions as Landlord may deem
necessary or desirable in order to relet the Premises. Landlord shall in no way be responsible or
liable for any rental concessions or any failure to rent the Premises or any part thereof,or for any
failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting. Upon such reletting, all rentals received by
Landlord from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the payment of any indebtedness (other
than any rent due hereunder)from Tenant to Landlord; second,to the payment of any costs and
expenses of such reletting, including, without limitation, brokerage fees and attorney's fees and
costs of alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of rent and other charges then due and
unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any shall be held by Landlord to the extent of and for
application in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. In
reletting the Premises as aforesaid, Landlord may grant rent concessions and Tenant shall not be
credited therefore. If such rentals received from such reletting shall at any time or from time to
time be less than sufficient to pay to Landlord the entire sums then due from Tenant hereunder,
Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall, at Landlord's option, be
calculated and paid monthly. No such reletting shall be construed as an election by Landlord to
terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such election has been given to Tenant by
Landlord. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time
thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for any such previous default provided same has not been
cured; or
v. Without liability to Tenant or any other party and without constituting a
constructive or actual eviction, suspend or discontinue furnishing or rendering to Tenant any
property, material, labor, utilities or other service, whether Landlord is obligated to furnish or
render the same, so long as Tenant is in default under this Lease; or
Page 5 of 10
{00402439.1 306-9001821)
vi. Allow the Premises to remain unoccupied and collect rent from Tenant as
it comes due; or
viii. Pursue such other remedies as are available at law or equity.
Landlord's pursuit of any remedy of remedies, including without limitation, any one or
more of the remedies stated herein shall not (1) constitute an election of remedies or preclude
pursuit of any other remedy or remedies provided in this Lease Agreement or any other remedy
or remedies provided by law or in equity, separately or concurrently or in any combination, or
(2) serve as the basis for any claim of constructive eviction, or allow Tenant to withhold any
payments under this Lease.
19. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants and agrees that upon Tenant paying the
rent and observing and performing all of the terms, covenants and conditions on Tenant's part
to be observed and performed hereunder, that Tenant may peaceably and quietly have, hold,
occupy and enjoy the Leased Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease without
hindrance or molestation from Landlord or any persons lawfully claiming through Landlord.
20. Holding Over. In the event that Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant shall
continue occupancy of the Leased Premises after the expiration of the term of this Lease or any
renewal or extension thereof without any agreement in writing between Landlord and Tenant
with respect thereto, such occupancy shall not be deemed to extend or renew the term of the
Lease, but such occupancy shall continue as a tenancy at will, from month to month, upon the
covenants, provisions and conditions herein contained. The rental shall be the rental in effect
during the term of this Lease as extended or renewed, prorated and payable for the period of
such occupancy.
21. Waiver. Failure of either party to complain of any act or omission on the part of
the other party, no matter how long the same may continue, shall not be deemed to be a waiver
by said party of any of its rights hereunder. No waiver by either party at any time, express or
implied, of any breach of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed a waiver of a breach of any
other provision of this Lease or a consent to any subsequent breach of the same or any other
provision.
22. Attorney's Fees. If suit should be brought for recovery of the Leased Premises, or
for any sum due hereunder, or because of any act which may arise out of the possession of the
Leased Premises, by either party, the prevailing party shall be entitled to all costs incurred in
connection with such action, including reasonable attorney's fees.
23. Notices. Wherever in this lease it is required or permitted that notice or demand
be given or served by either party on the other, such notice or demand shall be deemed given
when written and hand delivered, or deposited in the United States Mail, certified, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:
