Upon and after entry into possession, Landlord will make a good faith attempt to relet the Premises or any part thereof to any person, firm or corporation other than Tenant for such rent, for such time and upon such terms as Landlord shall determine to be reasonable. In any such case, Landlord may make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the Premises, and redecorate the same to the extent deemed by Landlord necessary or desirable to restore the Premises to its original condition, and pay the reasonable cost thereof, together with reasonable expenses for the re-letting including but not limited to its attorney fees and disbursements.

Suit or suits for the recovery of damages, or any installments thereof, may be brought by Landlord from time to time at its election and nothing in this Lease shall require Landlord to postpone suit until the Term or any renewal term would have expired. Nothing in this Article SIXTH shall limit or preclude the recovery by Landlord from Tenant of any sums or damages which, in addition to the damages particularly provided above, Landlord may lawfully be entitled to by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default including but not limited to its attorney fees and disbursements. The remedies specified in this Article SIXTH are cumulative and shall be in addition to every right or remedy now or thereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the rights or remedies provided for in this Article or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Landlord of any or all other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict performance of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy and no acceptance of full or partial Rent or Additional Rent during the continuance of any breach shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such term, covenant or condition. SEVENTH: (a) Subordination to Mortgages. The Landlord warrants that it is the owner of said leasehold set forth herein and that it further agrees to keep current all mortgages 9 and liens covering the Premises.

Tenant agrees, at any time and from time to time upon five (5) days prior notice by Landlord, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), the Rent commencement date, and the dates to which the Rent and Additional Rent, if any, has been paid in advance and stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of the signer of such certificate, Landlord is in default in performance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each default of which the signer may have knowledge, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant to this paragraph may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of Landlord's interest in this Lease. EIGHTH: No Waiver. Failure of the Landlord to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver. NINTH: Invalidity of Particular Provisions. In the event that any provision of this Lease be deemed unenforceable, all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. TENTH: Landlord's Right to Enter Promises. Tenant agrees to permit the Landlord and any authorized representatives of the Landlord to enter the Premises at all reasonable times during usual and reasonable business hours and upon prior oral or written request to Tenant or at any time in case of emergency to inspect the same or to exhibit the Premises to a prospective purchaser, mortgagee or assignee of any mortgage on the Premises and to others during the Term and, if the Landlord shall desire, but without implying any obligation on Landlord to do so, to 10 make any repairs deemed necessary by the Landlord and to perform any work in the Premises deemed necessary by the Landlord to comply with any laws, ordinances, orders, regulations or requirements of any insurer. If Tenant shall not have renewed or extended this Lease prior to the full final ninety (90) days of the Term, or any extension term, Landlord and its authorized agents and representatives, shall have the right to advertise the Premises for lease.

If any portion of the Premises shall be damaged or destroyed in whole or in part, Landlord shall restore, repair, replace or rebuild the same, and there shall be an abatement or reduction in Rent, Additional Rent or other charges payable under this Lease, for the time period that the Tenant is unable to occupy the Premises for the reasonable conduct of its business.

All sums so paid by the Landlord and all expenses in connection therewith, together with interest thereon from the date of such payment at the maximum rate per annum allowed by law, shall be Additional Rent hereunder and be payable to the Landlord upon demand. FIFTEENTH: Condition of Premises. Provided Tenant shall have had a reasonable time during which to inspect the Premises prior to commencement of the Term, Tenant's taking possession of the Premises shall be conclusive evidence as against Tenant that the Premises were in good order and satisfactory condition when Tenant took possession.
