In the event of a partial destruction of the Premises during the term hereof, from any cause whatsoever, the Premises shall forthwith be repaired provided such repairs can be made within ninety (90) working days under the law and regulations of State, Federal, County or Municipal authorities, but such partial destruction shall in nowise annul or void this Lease, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction of the minimum monthly fixed rental while such repairs are being made, such proportionate reduction to be based upon the extent to which the making of such repairs shall interfere with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises.

terminated at the option of either party. The obligations of the Landlord and Tenant in connection with the repair of the Premises shall be as follows: Landlord shall forthwith commence and carry to completion with all due diligence the repair of any damage or destruction to that portion of the Premises originally constructed by Landlord other than any work performed by Landlord’s on Tenant’s behalf and at Tenant’s cost and expense. Tenant shall forthwith commence and carry to completion with all due diligence the repair of any damage or destruction to the remainder of the Premises. The portion of the proceeds of the insurance carried by Landlord at the time of such damage or destruction pursuant to Section 23 of this Lease determined by Landlord’s insurance carrier to be attributable to the damage or destruction of the portion of the Premises to be repaired by Tenant, as aforesaid, which determination shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant, shall be made available by Landlord for the work of repair required to be performed by Tenant, to the extent required therefor and subject to the following conditions: (i) that Tenant is not then in default under any of the covenants or conditions of this Lease, (ii) that Landlord shall first be given satisfactory proof that such work has been fully performed by Tenant or that by the expenditure of such money will be fully performed by Tenant free and clear of all liens arising out of such work, (iii) that in the event such proceeds to be made available to Tenant shall be insufficient to complete said work to be performed by Tenant, Tenant shall promptly deposit with Landlord funds which, together with such proceeds, shall be sufficient to complete said work to be performed by Tenant, and (iv) that in the event Tenant shall fail to commence such work to be performed by Tenant and carry it to completion with all due diligence, then Landlord, at Landlord’s option, shall have the right to perform said work for or on behalf of Tenant and any amount expended by Landlord, at Landlord’s option, shall have the right to perform said work for or on behalf of Tenant and any amount expended by Landlord in doing so, above the amount of such proceeds attributable to such work, shall be repayable by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days after the receipt by Tenant from Landlord of a bill setting forth the amount thereof. The failure of Tenant to pay any such amount to Landlord within said ten (10) day period shall carry with it the same consequences as failure to pay any installment of rental. In the event that the building in which the Premises may be situated be destroyed to the extent of not less than thirty-three and one-third percent (33- 1/3%) of the replacement cost thereof, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease, whether the Premises be injured or not. In the event of any dispute between Landlord and Tenant relative to the provisions of this Section (except as to the aforesaid determination made by Landlord’s insurance carrier), they shall each select an arbitrator, the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator and the three arbitrators so selected shall hear and determine the controversy and their decision thereon shall be final and binding upon both Landlord and Tenant, who shall bear the cost of such arbitration equally between them. The provisions of any statute or other law which may be in effect at the time of the occurrence of any such damage or destruction, under which a Lease is automatically terminated or a Tenant is given the right to terminate a Lease upon the occurrence of any such damage or destruction, are hereby expressly waived by the Tenant.

 

35. EMINENT DOMAIN.

 

Should the Premises or any portion thereof be taken for public use by right of eminent domain with or without litigation, any award for compensation and/or damages, whether attained by agreement prior to or during the time of trial, or by judgment or verdict after trial, applying to the Leasehold estate created hereby other than that portion of said award, if any, based upon a taking of Tenant’s movable trade fixtures, shall belong and be paid to Landlord, and Tenant hereby assigns,

 

<Initials>

   13    <Initials>


transfers and sets over to Landlord all of the right, title and interest which it might otherwise have therein. In the event the portion of the Premises so taken shall be more than ten percent (10%) of the floor area of the Premises, either party hereto shall have the option, to be exercised by written notice given to the other party hereto within thirty (30) days after the date of such taking, to terminate this Lease. In the event that more than ten percent (10%) of the floor area of the Premises shall be so taken and Tenant does not so elect to terminate this Lease, or if less than ten percent (10%) of the floor area of the Premises is so taken, then the minimum fixed monthly rental payable under this Lease shall be reduced in the same proportion as the amount of said floor area is reduced by such taking and Landlord shall make such reconstruction of the Premises as may be required to the extent of the aforesaid award.

In the event of any such application by Landlord, Tenant shall, upon written demand of Landlord, forthwith deposit with Landlord a sufficient amount of cash to restore said deposit to the original amount thereof, and Tenant’s failure to do so within five (5) days after receipt of such demand from Landlord shall carry with it the same consequences as failure to pay any installment of rent due under this Lease. In the event that this Lease should be terminated for any reason other than default upon the part of Landlord or damage or destruction to the Premises as provided for in Section 34 hereof, or a taking of the Premises for public use by right of eminent domain as provided for in Section 35 hereof (in any of which events said deposit, less any portion thereof which may have been utilized by Landlord to cure any default or applied to any damages suffered by Landlord, shall be refunded to Tenant), Landlord shall have the right to retain said deposit until the expiration of the term of this Lease by lapse of time (whether or not this Lease has been earlier terminated) so that the full damages of Landlord may be ascertained. At the expiration of the term of this Lease by lapse of time, provided Tenant has paid all of the rental herein called for and fully performed all of the other covenants and conditions on its part agreed to be performed, Landlord shall return to Tenant said deposit less any portion thereof which may have been utilized by Landlord to cure any default or applied to any damages suffered by Landlord. Neither said deposit nor the application thereof by Landlord, as hereinabove provided, shall be a bar or defense to any action in unlawful detainer or to any action which Landlord may at any time commence for a breach of any of the covenants or conditions of this Lease.

 

37. QUIET ENJOYMENT.

 

Landlord agrees that so long as Tenant is not in default hereunder Tenant shall have the quiet enjoyment of the Premises without let or hindrance on the part of Landlord, and Landlord will warrant and defend Tenant in the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the Premises against the lawful claims of all persons claiming by, through or under Landlord.

The subsequent acceptance of rental hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rental.

 

39. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

 

All remedies herein conferred upon Landlord shall be deemed cumulative and no one exclusive of the other or of any other remedy conferred by law.

 

40. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION.

 

So long as the applicable policy is not affected and the cost thereof is not increased thereby each of the parties hereto does hereby waive its entire right of recovery against the other for any damages caused by an occurrence insured against by such party and the rights of any insurance carrier are to be subrogated to the rights of the insured under the applicable policy.

8.4 Landlord shall have the right to bill Tenant for any amount payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Section in periodic installments, from time to time, but not more often than monthly. In the event the amount of the real estate taxes and assessments for any fiscal tax year upon or against the Building and the land underlying the Building has not been made known to Landlord by the assessor at the time of billing, Landlord shall have the right to estimate the amount thereof, provided that Landlord informs Tenant of the method used to arrive at the estimate to the Tenant, and to base its billing to Tenant upon said estimated amount and in such event Landlord agrees to adjust such billing when the actual amount of such real estate taxes and assessments is made known to Landlord by the assessor.
