5. Percentage of Rent: N/A

6. Cost of Living Escalation.

If paragraph three provides for increases in base rent because of cost of living increases, then this paragraph shall be applicable, Since the base rent is predicated upon the retail cost of living index remaining constant, then, should this lease be for more than one year, and should the Statistical Abstract of the United States, as published by the United States Government, evidence that on the January next following the first year of this lease the retail cost of living index has increased, then the amount of each rent payment shall be increased in that same percentage, beginning with the first payment due following the date that Lessor serves written notice to Lessee of this increase, with a copy or citation of the governmental reference reflecting and verifying the increase. Any increase in base rent from cost of living increases shall be retroactive to the date that the cost of living increase first became effective according to the government publication.

7. Cost of Fire and Casualty Insurance.

Because this is a triple net lease, Lessor shall have no duty to pay, process or otherwise deal with fire and casualty insurance. Lessee shall provide fire and casualty insurance as provided in paragraph 15 (Provisions of Fire and Casualty Insurance). Lessor may pay the same on Lessee's behalf, and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for the same or Lessor may reimburse itself therefor out of the rental payable hereunder by Lessee. Lessee shall save and hold Lessor harmless on account of any of these premiums. Lessee shall pay Lessor maximum legal interest on any monies that Lessor may advance on behalf of Lessee until these monies are repaid.

8. Costs of Taxes and Assessments.

Because this is a triple net lease, Lessee shall be responsible for all taxes and assessments levied against the real property, improvements thereon and personal property contained therein and all other taxes and assessments which may relate to the real property improvements or personal property contained therein and all increases related to all of these. Lessor may pay the same on the Lessee's behalf, and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for the same or Lessor may reimburse itself therefore out of the rental payable hereunder by Lessee.

Lessee shall pay Lessor maximum legal interest on my monies that Lessors may advance on behalf of Lessee until these monies are repaid.

If at any time during this lease the method or scope of taxation used at the commencement of this lease is changed so as to cause the method of taxation to be changed in whole or in part, so that in substitution for the real-estate taxes now assessed there may be in whole or in part a capitol levy or other imposition based on the value of the leased premises, or the rents received therefrom, or some other form of assessment based in whole or in part on some other valuation of the Lessor's real property comprising the demised premises, then and in such event, substituted tax or imposition shall be payable and discharged by the Lessee in the manner required pursuant to such la promulgated which shall authorize such change in the scope of the taxation, and as required by the terms and conditions within the lease.

Nothing in this lease contained shall require the Lessee to pay any franchise, estate, inheritance, succession, capital levy or transfer tax of the Lessor, or Federal Income Tax, State Income Tax, or excess profits or revenue tax, unless such taxes are in substitution for real property taxes as a result of such change in the manner and scope of taxation.

If the Lessee wishes to contest any assessment or levy of taxes on the leased premises, the Lessor covenants and agrees that it will lend its name and execute all necessary papers to aid the Lessee in contesting or litigating said assessment, provided, however, that said litigation or contest shall be at the cost and expense of the Lessee.

11. Security Deposit.

To insure the Lessee's prompt and full payment of the rent, and the faithful and timely performance of all provisions of this lease, and any extension or renewal thereof, Lessee shall pay a security deposit as set forth in paragraph 3 above.

If any default shall be made on the performance of any of the covenants on the part of Lessee herein contained with respect to any item or items of the leased premises, Lessor shall be entitled to that portion of the fund as it is required to cover the default. Any such releasing of money from the fund for this purpose shall not be a defense to any action by Lessor arising out of said default; and, upon demand, Lessee shall restore the fund to the full amount set forth in this provision. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this lease, or any extension or renewal thereof; provided that the Lessee has paid all the rent herein called for and fully preformed all of the other provisions of this lease on its part to be preformed, Lessor will release to Lessee any remaining balance in the fund, The party who is eventually entitled to the fund in whole or in part shall also be entitled to all the interest accrued or his pro rata share of the interest accrued.
