If, because of any act or omission of Lessee or anyone claiming by, through, or under Lessee, any mechanic’s or other lien or order for the payment of money shall be filed against the premises or the property of which the premises are a part, or against Lessor (whether or not such lien or order is valid or enforceable as such), Lessee shall, at its own cost and expense, cause the same to be canceled and discharged of record within ninety (90) days after the date of filing thereof.

INSURANCE AND LIABILITY

XV. Indemnification and Insurance - Lessee’s Responsibility:

Lessee covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold Lessor free and harmless from and against any damage, loss or liability for injury to, or death of persons and/or loss or damage to property, not compensated for by Lessor’s insurance, occasioned by, growing out of, arising or resulting from Lessee’s default hereunder or from any act or omission of Lessee, its agents, employees or invitees. Lessee shall also during the term and at its own expense, carry public liability insurance with at least $1,000,000.00 personal injury and $500,000.00 property damage limits, with Lessor and, if requested by Lessor, any Mortgagee of Lessor, named as additional insured, and providing that the same shall not be modified, canceled or terminated without at least fifteen (15) days prior notice to Lessor. Lessee shall, at the Lessee’s cost and expense secure and maintain, insurance against loss or damage or injury to or destruction of the building on the leased premises resulting from fire, tornado, or from any hazard included in the so-called extended coverage endorsement in an aggregate amount at least equal to the full fair insurable value thereof. All premiums on such policy and any substitute policies herein required shall be paid by the Lessee. Lessee agrees that a certificate of insurance shall be deposited with Lessor at all times.

XVI. Lessor’s Nonliability:

Lessor shall have no responsibility for the care or safety of the personal or other property kept on the premises by Lessee, and shall not be liable for any damage caused directly or indirectly by acts or omissions of others, or by water or steam leaking, escaping or bursting from any sprinkler equipment, water, steam or other pipes, washstands, water tanks, or sewers in, above, under, upon or about the leased premises, or by water, snow or ice being upon or coming through the roof, windows, trap doors or otherwise.

EMINENT DOMAIN

XVII. Eminent Domain:

Appropriation of all the leased premises shall terminate this Lease as of the date thereof. If part, but not all of the leased premises shall be appropriated, and loss of the part appropriated would have significant detrimental effect on Lessee’s use of the premises or if the part appropriated includes thirty percent (30%) or more of the premises subject to this Lease, then Lessee shall have the right to cancel this Lease by written notice to Lessor given within fifteen (15) days after such appropriation. Lessee shall vacate the premises within a reasonable period, not exceeding six months after the giving of such notice and upon its vacation, this Lease shall terminate. If Lessee does not exercise its cancellation right, Lessor shall, at the expiration of the fifteen (15) day period, proceed with all reasonable dispatch to repair any damage to the premises caused by the appropriation, and Lessee shall be entitled to a reasonable adjustment in the rent accruing hereunder from the date of appropriation reflective of the diminished utility or ease of use of the premises to Lessee.

Lessee shall not be entitled to any part of an award or settlement of damages representing the value of the building appropriated, or any estate therein, or damage to the residue of the leased premises or other property of Lessor, it being agreed that as between Lessor and Lessee any such award shall be the sole property of Lessor. However, in any condemnation proceeding, Lessee may claim and receive compensation from the condemning authority for damage to its fixtures and for the cost of removal and damage by reason thereof. No appropriation of part or all of the leased premises, or cancellation of this Lease pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed an eviction of Lessee, or a breach of any covenant of Lessor hereunder.

For purposes of this paragraph, the terms “appropriation” or “appropriated” shall mean a taking in condemnation proceedings by right of eminent domain, or a conveyance by Lessor to a public or quasi-public authority under threat of condemnation, and the date of appropriation shall be the date on which any such event occurs. Where a rent adjustment is provided for in this paragraph, the amount of the reduction shall be determined by multiplying the monthly rent by a fraction, the numerator shall be the area of space lost by the “appropriation” and the denominator shall be the total area of space leased by the Lessee prior to the “appropriation.”

DEFAULT

XVIII. Default by Lessee:

If Lessee shall at any time be in default in the payment of rent or other charges or in the performance of any of its agreements hereunder, and if such default relates to the payment of money, shall fail to remedy it within seven (7) days after written notice of such default by Lessor to Lessee, or if the default relates to matters other than the payment of money, fails to commence to remedy it within fifteen (15) days after written notice of such default by Lessor to Lessee and thereafter diligently to pursue correction thereof, or if a receiver of any property of Lessee on the premises be appointed, or Lessee’s interest in the premises is levied upon by legal process, or Lessee be adjudged bankrupt, and Lessee fails within ten (10) days to commence, and thereafter diligently to pursue, proceedings for the vacation of such appointment, levy, or adjudication, or if Lessee shall dispose of all or substantially all of its assets in bulk in a transaction not involving an assumption of Lessee’s obligations hereunder by the purchaser of such assets, or make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors then, and in any such instance, without further notice to Lessee, Lessor may enter upon the premises notwithstanding the provisions of this Lease, and in the event of such entry, Lessor may either:

MISCELLANEOUS

XIX. Quiet Enjoyment:

Lessor covenants and agrees that if Lessee pays the rent and other charges herein provided, and performs all the covenants and agreements herein stipulated to be performed on Lessee’s part, Lessee shall, at all times during the term, have the peaceable and quiet enjoyment and possession of the premises without any manner of hindrance from Lessor or any persons lawfully claiming under or through Lessor, except as to any portion of the premises that might be taken by eminent domain.

XX. Assignment and Subletting:

Lessee shall not assign this lease or sublet the premises.

XXI. Short Form Lease:

XXII. Subordination and Offset Certificate:

Lessee covenants and agrees, within ten (10) days after Lessor’s written request, to execute and deliver to Lessor:

XXIII. Holding Over:

If Lessee shall remain in possession of all or any part of the premises after the expiration of the terms of this Lease then Lessee shall be deemed a tenant of the premises from month to month. Any holding over by Lessee shall be upon and subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease except as to the term of this Lease, and rent for the period of such hold over tenancy shall be equal to the monthly rental rate as set forth in this lease.

XXIV. No Waiver:

No receipt of money by Lessor from Lessee with knowledge of a breach of any covenants of this Lease, or after the termination hereof, or after the service of any notice, or after the commencement of any suit, or after final judgment for possession of said premises shall be deemed a waiver of such breach, nor shall it reinstate, continue or extend the term of this Lease or affect any such notice, demand or suit. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by Lessor to or for any other shall be construed as a consent or waiver to or for any other breach of the same or any other covenant, condition or duty to be observed by Lessee.

XXV. Force Majeure:

In the event that Lessor or Lessee shall be delayed, hindered in or prevented from the performance of any act required hereunder (other than payment of rent and other charges payable by Lessee) by failure to act or default of the other party, war or any other reason beyond the reasonable control of the party who is seeking additional time for the performance of such act, then performance of such act shall be extended for a reasonable period in no event to exceed a period equivalent to the period of such delay.
