Any assignment, encumbrance, or sublease without Landlord 's consent shall be voidable and, at Landlord' s election, shall constitute a default. No consent to any assignment, encumbrance, or sublease shall constitute a further waiver of the provisions of this paragraph.

No interest of Tenant in this Lease shall be assignable by operation of law. Each of the following acts shall be considered an involuntary assignment:

A.If Tenant is or becomes bankrupt or insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or institutes a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Act in which Tenant is the debtor; or, if Tenant is a partnership or consists of more than one person or entity, if any partner of the partnership or other person or entity is or becomes bankrupt or insolvent, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors;

B.    If a writ of attachment or execution is levied on this Lease;

C.    If, in any proceeding or action to which Tenant is a party, a receiver is appointed with authority to take possession of the Premises.

An involuntary assignment shall constitute a default by Tenant and Landlord shall have the right to elect to terminate this Lease, in which case this Lease shall not be treated as an asset of Tenant.

15. Tenant's Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant :

D.    Failure to perform any other provision of this Lease if the failure to perform is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice has been given to Tenant. If the default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, Tenant shall not be in default of this Lease if Tenant commences to cure the default within the thirty (30) day period and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the default.

Notice given under this paragraph shall specify the alleged default and the applicable Lease provisions, and shall demand that Tenant perform the provisions of this Lease as the case may be, within the applicable period of time, or quit the Premises. No such notice shall be deemed a forfeiture or a termination of this Lease unless Landlord so elects in the notice.

16. Landlord' s Remedies. Landlord shall have the following remedies if Tenant commits a default. These remedies are not exclusive; they are cumulative in addition to any remedies now or later allowed by law.

Landlord can continue this Lease in full force and effect, and this Lease will continue in effect as long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant 's right to possession. During the period Tenant is in default, Landlord can enter the Premises and relet them, or any part of them, to third parties. Reletting can be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining term of this Lease. After Tenant's default and for as long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, if Tenant obtains Landlord' s consent Tenant shall have the right to assign or sublet its interest in this Lease, but Tenant shall not be released from liability. Landlord's consent to a proposed assignment or subletting shall not be unreasonably withheld.

If Landlord elects to relet the Premises as provided in this paragraph, rent that Landlord receives from reletting shall be applied to the payment of:

A.    Any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord; and

B.    All costs, including maintenance, incurred by Landlord in reletting.

Landlord can terminate Tenant 's right to possession of the Premises at any time. No act by Landlord other than giving notice to Tenant shall terminate this Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver on Landlord's initiative to protect Landlord 's interest under th is Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant 's right to possession.

Landlord, at any time after Tenant commits a default, can cure the default at Tenant's cost. If Landlord at any time, by reason of Tenant's default, pays any sum or does any act that requires the payment of any sum, the sum paid by Landlord shall be due immediately from Tenant to Landlord at the time the sum is paid.

17. Notice. Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, or communication that either party desires or is required to give to the other party or any person shall be in writing and either served personally or sent by prepaid, first class mail. Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, or communication that either party desires or is required to give to the other party shall be addressed to the other party at the address set forth in the introductory paragraph of this Lease. Either party may change its address by notifying the other party of the change of address. Notice shall be deemed communicated within forty-eight (48) hours from the time of mailing, if mailed as provided in this paragraph.

18. Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord on any default by Tenant shall impair such a right or remedy or be construed as a waiver.

The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular rent payment involved.

No act or conduct of Landlord, including, without limitation, the acceptance of the keys to the Premises, shall constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises by Tenant before the expiration of the term. Only a notice from Landlord to Tenant shall constitute acceptance of the surrender of the Premises and accomplish a termination of the Lease.

Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Tenant.

Any waiver by Landlord of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Lease.

19. Surrender of Premises; Holding over. On expiration of the term, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord the premises and all Tenant's improvements and alterations in good condition (except for ordinary wear and tear occurring after the last necessary maintenance made by Tenant), except for alterations that Tenant has the right to remove or is obligated to remove under the provisions of this Lease. Tenant shall remove all its personal property within the above stated time. Tenant shall perform all restoration made necessary by the removal of any alterations or Tenant's personal property within the time periods stated in this paragraph.

Landlord can elect to retain or dispose of in any manner any alterations or Tenant's personal property that Tenant does not remove from the Premises on expiration or termination of the term as allowed or required by this Lease by giving at least ten (10) days' notice to Tenant. Title to any such alterations or Tenant's personal property that Landlord elects to retain or dispose of on expiration of the ten (10) day period shall vest in Landlord. Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for any damage to Tenant resulting from Landlord's retention or disposition of any such alterations or Tenant's personal property. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for Landlord's costs for storing, removing, and disposing of any alterations or Tenant's personal property.

If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises to Landlord on expiration or ten (10) days after termination of the term as required by this paragraph, Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from all damages resulting from Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises, including, without limitation, claims made by a succeeding tenant resulting from Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises.

If Tenant, with Landlord's consent, remains in possession of the Premises after expiration or termination of the term, or after the date in any notice given by Landlord to Tenant terminating this Lease, such possession by Tenant shall be deemed to be a month-to-month tenancy terminable on thirty (30) days' notice given at any time

by either party.

All provisions of this Lease, except those pertaining to term and option to acquire the Premises, shall apply to the month­ to-month tenancy.

20. Payment Upon Sale or at End of Tenth Year. If Landlord sells the Premises prior to the end of the tenth year of the term of this Lease, Landlord shall rebate to Tenant for appreciated value, one-half of the net sale price received (after real estate commission, title fees, premiums, attorney fees, and closing costs) over Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000.00). If Landlord has not sold the Premises before the tenth year of the term of this Lease, it shall pay Tenant one-half of the appreciated value as determined by the then appraised value of the property over Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000.00) or Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00), whichever is greater. An appraisal shall be by an MAI appraiser mutually acceptable to the parties.

21. Miscellaneous Provisions.
