Tenant acknowledges that the Site Plan shall not be deemed a representation by Landlord that the Shopping Center shall be constructed as indicated thereon or that any tenants or occupants designated by name or nature of business thereon shall conduct business in the Shopping Center during the Term; and, provided that Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Premises is not materially affected, Landlord may, in its sole discretion, increase, decrease, or change the number, locations, and dimensions of the buildings, driving lanes, driveways, walkways, parking spaces and other improvements shown on the Site Plan (excluding the Premises), and Landlord reserves the right to construct new buildings and/or make additions and alterations to all buildings constructed in the Shopping Center.
ARTICLE 2
TERM
2.0 Effective Date. This Lease shall be effective and constitute a binding contract between Landlord and Tenant as of the Date of Lease specified in Paragraph A of the BLP (the “Effective Date”).
2.1 Term. The term of the Lease ("Term") shall be for the period years set forth in Paragraph H of the BLP commencing on the Commencement Date defined in Section 2.3 below. If the last day of the Term falls on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, then the Term shall be extended such that the expiration date shall be the last day of said calendar month.
2.2 Delivery Date. Landlord shall tender possession of the Premises to Tenant August 01, 2019 (“Delivery Date"). Tenant shall deliver each of the following to Landlord prior to the Delivery Date: (a) executed copies of policies of insurance or certificates thereof (as required under Article 9); (b) final plans for all tenant improvements to the Premises, including the Tenant’s Work. Landlord shall not be obligated to deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant until the foregoing items and the Rent (as stated in Section 3.1 below) are delivered to Landlord, but the Delivery Date shall not be delayed by Tenant's failure to deliver any of such items.
2.3 Intentionally Deleted.
ARTICLE 3
RENT
3.0 Minimum Rent. During the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord without prior demand, deduction, set-off, counterclaim or offset, the Rent provided in this Section 3.1 and all other additional sums as provided in this Lease.
(a) Tenant shall pay the sum specified in Paragraph J of the BLP ("Minimum Rent") in the monthly amounts specified, in advance, on or before the first day of each month commencing on the date which is the Delivery Date.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount specified in section K of the BLP (the “Prepaid Rent”) upon execution. The Prepaid Rent shall not be refundable to Tenant under any circumstances.
__________ Tenant Initials
3.1 Definition of Additional Rent and Rent. The term, "Additional Rent," whenever used in this Lease, shall mean all other charges payable by Tenant in addition to Minimum Rent, including without limitation Tenant's share of Taxes, insurance, and Common Area Costs, whether or not the same be designated as Additional Rent. All Additional Rent shall commence upon the Delivery Date, and be payable in advance, on or before the first day of each month commencing on the Delivery Date. If Delivery Date shall be on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, Additional Rent for the first partial month shall be prorated on the basis, which the number of days of the Term in such month bears to thirty (30), and as so prorated shall be paid by Tenant on the Delivery Date. The term "Rent," as used in this Lease, shall mean Minimum Rent and Additional Rent.
3.2 Accord and Satisfaction. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount of monthly Minimum Rent or Additional Rent shall be deemed to be anything other than a payment of the earliest due Minimum Rent or Additional Rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on a check or any letter accompanying any such check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such Minimum Rent or Additional Rent or payment or pursue any other remedy available in this Lease, at law or in equity. Landlord may accept any partial payment from Tenant without invalidation of any contractual notice required to be given herein (to the extent such contractual notice is required) and without invalidation of any notice given or required to be given pursuant to applicable law.
3.3 Late Charges and Interest. Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Rent will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installments of Rent shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within five (5) days after such amount shall be due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to fifteen percent (15%) of such overdue amount ("Late Charge"). The parties hereby agree that such Late Charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of late payments by Tenant. Acceptance of such Late Charge by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In addition, Tenant shall pay interest on all Rent not paid on the date when due at an annual interest rate of eighteen percent (18%) or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is lower ("Interest Rate"). In the event any check, bank draft or negotiable instrument given for any payments under this Lease shall be dishonored at any time for any reason whatsoever not attributable to Landlord, Landlord shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy that may be available, to an administrative charge of $200.00.
3.4 Security Deposit. Upon the day of signing this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the sum set forth in Paragraph L of the BLP as security for the faithful performance of obligations of Tenant under this Lease ("Security Deposit"). The Security Deposit shall not constitute payment of the last month's Minimum Rent hereunder and shall not bear interest. Landlord, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to apply the Security Deposit to pay any Default of Tenant hereunder. If Landlord does so apply the Security Deposit , Tenant shall, upon demand, immediately deposit with Landlord within five (5) days an amount of cash equal to the amount so applied so that Tenant shall at all times have on deposit with Landlord the amounts herein specified as the Security Deposit. At Landlord's election, and upon thirty (30) days' prior notice to Tenant, the Security Deposit shall be increased in accordance with the formula for adjustment of Minimum Rent as described in this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general funds. Any interest accrued from the Security Deposit shall be paid to Landlord.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, if Tenant causes additional Common Area Costs by reason of its operation, including but not limited to insurance, security or lighting for abnormal operating hours, Landlord may in its discretion charge such costs directly to Tenant rather than as part of Common Area Costs.
5.4 Records. Landlord shall keep accurate records, by utilizing an independent bookkeeper, accountant, or CPA, or property manager showing in detail all Common Area Costs incurred for a period of three (3) years after each calendar year or the maximum amount of time required by law. These records shall, upon reasonable request, be made available in person during business hours at the offices of Landlord, or Landlord’s property manager, which will be located in Las Vegas, Nevada, for inspection by Tenant. Tenant shall have no right to utilize a contingent fee inspector or auditor in connection with such inspection. Tenant shall keep the results of any such inspection confidential. A copy of the report issued by the inspector shall be furnished by Tenant to Landlord. Tenant shall be permitted to inspect Landlord's records hereunder no more than once per calendar year, and shall not have the right to dispute Common Area Costs for any calendar year more than one (1) year after the end of such calendar year. Nothing contained herein shall serve to limit Landlord's right to dispute Tenant's findings as a result of such inspection.
5.5 Tenant's Contribution. Tenant's share of Common Area Costs ("Tenant's Share") shall be calculated as the ratio which Tenant's Floor Area specified in Paragraph F of the BLP, bears to the total Floor Area then built in the Shopping Center described in Paragraph E of the BLP. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on a monthly basis, according to the terms of the BLP, at the same time(s) and in the same manner(s) as Tenant pays its monthly installments of Minimum Rent to Landlord, Tenant's Share of the amount of all Common Area Costs together with Tenant's Share of estimated Taxes pursuant to Section 6.2 and Tenant's share of estimated insurance pursuant to Sections 9.1(b) and 9.3(a) based either on (a) the amount of such expenses actually incurred for the billing period, or (b) equal periodic installments which have been estimated in advance by Landlord for a particular calendar year, in which event within sixty (60) days after each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a statement (“Landlord’s Operating Statement”) showing in reasonable detail: (i) the actual Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance for the previous calendar year; (ii) Tenant’s Share of the actual Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance for the previous calendar year; and (iii) the total sum of Tenant’s Share payments of the estimated Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance for the previous calendar year. If Tenant’s Share of the actual Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance for a calendar exceeds the amount of Tenant’s Share of the estimated Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance actually paid by Tenant for that calendar year, then Tenant shall immediately pay such deficiency to Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt of the Landlord’s Operating Statement. If Tenant’s Share of the estimated Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance for a calendar year exceeds Tenant’s Share of the actual Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance for that calendar year, then the excess shall be credited against Tenant’s share of future Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance. In no event shall Tenant be relieved of its obligation to pay Tenant’s Share of Common Area Costs, Taxes, and insurance if Landlord is late in sending Landlord’s Operating Statement to Tenant.
5.6 Operation and Control. Landlord shall have general possession and control of the entire Common Area and may from time to time adopt rules and regulations pertaining to the use thereof ("Rules"). The manner in which the Common Area shall be operated and maintained and the expenditures therefor shall be in Landlord's sole discretion. Landlord reserves the right to appoint a substitute operator, including but not limited to, any tenant in the Shopping Center, to carry out any or all of Landlord's rights and duties with respect to the Common Area as provided in this Lease; and Landlord may enter into a contract either by a separate document or in a lease agreement with such operator on such terms and conditions and for such period as Landlord shall deem proper; and if Landlord does so, Landlord shall pay the charges therefore from the administration fees described in Section 5.5.
5.7 Parking. Landlord shall provide Tenant and its employees, suppliers, customers and guests with sufficient non-exclusive, unreserved parking. Tenant shall have the exclusive use of three (3) reserved covered parking spaces as depicted in the attached Schedule at no additional cost to Tenant throughout the Term. Except as herein provided, Tenant acknowledges that all parking at the Shopping Center is shared on a non-exclusive basis by all tenants, licensees, guests, customers, employees, agents, representatives, and invitees. All parking lot lighting is to remain on from dusk till dawn, 7 days a week.. Tenant shall have access to the designated parking lot 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, subject to the Shopping Center’s parking regulations.
5.8 Obstructions. No fence, wall, structure, division, rail or obstruction shall be placed, kept, permitted or maintained upon the Common Area or any part thereof by Tenant; nor shall the sale, display, advertising, promotion, or storage of merchandise or any business activities of any kind whatsoever be conducted therein without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion; nor shall Tenant permit any person to use the Common Area for solicitations, demonstrations, or any other activities that would interfere with the conduct of business in the Shopping Center or which might tend to create civil disorder or commotion.
ARTICLE 6
TAXES
6.0 Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay before delinquency all license fees, public charges, property taxes and assessments on the furniture, fixtures, equipment and other property of or being used by Tenant at any time situated on or installed in the Premises.
6.1 Real Property Taxes.
(a) From and after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, any and all real property taxes and general or special assessments, and installments thereof, (including any tax on rent whether or not substituted in whole or in part for real property taxes or assessments and any license fee imposed by a local governmental body on the collection of rent, and excluding federal and state income taxes) (collectively, "Taxes"), which shall during the Term be levied or assessed against all or any portion of the Premises or imposed on Landlord. Said Taxes for the first and last years of the Term hereunder shall, if necessary, be prorated and apportioned between Landlord and Tenant to coincide with the Delivery Date and expiration of the Term. Tenant shall pay its estimated share of Taxes monthly as part of Common Area Costs pursuant to Section 5.5 and 5.7 above. Tenant hereby acknowledges that its estimated share of Taxes may include an amount reasonably estimated by Landlord to reflect a "supplemental assessment" due to initial construction, transfer or remodel of the Shopping Center, and that such portion of the estimated Taxes payable by Tenant shall be reconciled at the end of the year that the bill from the County Assessor fixing such supplemental assessment is received by Landlord.
(b) Tenant shall be liable only for that portion of the Taxes attributable to the Premises based upon individual assessment valuations (proration) supplied by the County Assessor. Said proration shall be conclusive upon both parties unless the parties otherwise mutually agree in writing. In the absence of a proration supplied by the County Assessor or a written agreement by the parties, Tenant's share shall be determined by multiplying the amount payable set forth in the tax bill by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Floor Area of the Premises, as specified in Paragraph F of the BLP, and in which the denominator is the greater of (i) the occupied Floor Area of all premises included in the tax bill, or (ii) eighty percent (80%) of the Floor area of all premises included in the tax bill, excluding in both (i) and (ii) above the Floor Area of any spaces on separately assessed parcels to the extent the occupant(s) thereof pay such separately assessed taxes directly to the taxing authority.
(c) If the Premises are separately billed pursuant to a segregation, Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent the amount of such Taxes directly to the tax collector. If the Premises are not separately assessed, Tenant shall pay Tenant's share of such Taxes to Landlord as specified above. Each party shall furnish the other, upon written request, evidence of payment of such Taxes.
(d) Tenant acknowledges and understands that in the event Landlord should at any time in the future sell the Shopping Center and/or the Premises, then there is a possibility of an increase in the Taxes which will be borne by Tenant along with other tenants in the Shopping Center.
6.2 Business Taxes. Tenant shall pay all special taxes and assessments or license fees levied, assessed or imposed by law or ordinance, by reason of the use of the Premises for the specific purposes set forth in this Lease.
ARTICLE 7
UTILITIES

Tenant agrees that Landlord may refuse its consent to the proposed transfer on any reasonable grounds, and (by way of example and without limitation) Tenant agrees that it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent if any of the following situations exist or may exist: (a) the use to which the Premises will be put by the proposed transferee is different than the use set forth in Paragraph G of the BLP; (b) the proposed transferee's financial condition is inadequate, in Landlord’s sole discretion, to support all of the financial and other obligations of Tenant under this Lease; (c) the business reputation or character of the proposed transferee is not reasonably acceptable to Landlord; (d) the proposed transferee is not likely to conduct on the Premises a business of a quality substantially equal to or greater than that conducted by Tenant; (e) the nature of the proposed transferee's proposed or likely use of the Premises would impose an increased burden on the Common Area, or involve any increased risk of the presence, use, release or discharge of Hazardous Materials, as defined in Article 30; (f) Landlord has not received assurances acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion that all past due amounts owing from Tenant to Landlord, if any, will be paid and all other defaults on the part of Tenant, if any, will be cured prior to the effective date of the proposed Assignment; (g) in Landlord's reasonable business judgment the annual Percentage Rent Landlord anticipates receiving from the proposed transferee is less than the average Percentage Rent Landlord has received from Tenant during the two (2) years immediately prior to the proposed Assignment; and (h) in Landlord’s reasonable business judgment the Assignment would breach any covenant of Landlord respecting radius, location, use or exclusivity relating to the Shopping Center, or, in Landlord's sole discretion, conflict with, be incompatible with or have an adverse impact on the tenant mix of the Shopping Center.
Landlord's consent to any one Assignment shall not constitute consent to any other Assignment.
17.4 No Release. In the event of any Assignment of this Lease, Tenant shall remain primarily liable for its covenants hereunder. In the event of any Assignment the assignee or subtenant shall agree in writing to perform and be bound by all of the covenants of this Lease required to be performed by Tenant. Landlord's consent to any Assignment shall not relieve Tenant from each and all of Tenant's obligations hereunder and Tenant shall continue to remain jointly and severally liable hereunder with said assignee or subtenant.
17.5 Landlord's Rights with Respect to Tenant's Assignment or Subletting. In the event that Tenant makes a request to Landlord seeking Landlord's consent to an Assignment, or in the event that Tenant makes or suffers such Assignment without Landlord's written consent (including an Assignment by operation of law), then such request for consent, or such act or sufferance or Assignment shall be deemed to grant an option to Landlord to terminate this Lease subject to Section 17.3 above, and the tenancy created hereby (including any subtenancies). Such option must be exercised by Landlord within sixty (60) days after the date it has actual notice of such Assignment. Upon the exercise of said option by Landlord, Tenant shall have a reasonable time, not exceeding the end of the succeeding calendar month, within which to vacate the entirety of the Premises, at which date the tenancy created by this Lease shall be deemed to have terminated, and any further occupancy by Tenant (and those holding under Tenant) shall constitute an unlawful detention. Landlord may exercise the rights granted in this Section 17.5 at any time prior to receiving written notice if Landlord has actual knowledge of such Assignment. Any Assignment without the prior written consent of Landlord shall be voidable at the election of Landlord and shall constitute a Default under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Tenant has requested Landlord's consent to an Assignment, Tenant shall have the right to nullify Landlord's election to terminate this Lease, as provided in this Section 17.5, by withdrawing in writing its request to Landlord seeking Landlord's consent to the Assignment within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord's written notice electing to terminate the Lease hereunder.
17.6 Excess Rent. Should Tenant, with or without Landlord's consent, Assign this Lease, Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord and Landlord shall be entitled to receive, all consideration payable to or received by Tenant pursuant to such Assignment which exceeds the Minimum Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease: it being the intent that all increased rents or leasehold bonus value relating to any interest in the Premises shall accrue to Landlord. If there is any question as to whether consideration received represents rent or leasehold bonus value consideration or not, the amount of such consideration to which Landlord shall be entitled shall be based on the difference between the current Minimum Rent payable by Tenant under the Lease and the then fair market rental value of the Premises, including the average of Minimum Rent and Percentage Rent for a thirty-six (36) month period ended immediately prior to the date the fair market rental value of the Premises is determined. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the fair market rental value of the Premises, such fair market rental value shall be determined in accordance with the following: The Premises shall be appraised by an M.A.I. Appraiser chosen by Landlord ("First Appraiser"). If the appraisal determined by the First Appraiser is deemed unacceptable by Tenant, then Tenant shall so advise Landlord in writing within ten (10) working days after receipt of the appraisal by the First Appraiser and Tenant shall have the right to engage an M.A.I. Appraiser ("Second Appraiser"), at Tenant’s sole expense, to appraise the Premises. In the event Landlord shall deem the appraisal by the Second Appraiser to be unacceptable, then Landlord shall advise Tenant within ten (10) working days after receipt of the appraisal by the Second Appraiser, and the First Appraiser and Second Appraiser shall together choose an M.A.I. Appraiser ("Third Appraiser"). The cost of the Second and Third Appraisers shall be borne by Tenant. If the appraisal determined by the Third Appraiser is greater than the highest appraisal or lower than the lowest appraisal given by the First Appraiser and Second Appraiser, then the appraisal shall be the average of the first two (2) appraisals. If the appraisal determined by the Third Appraiser is not greater than the highest appraisal nor lower than the lowest appraisal determined by the First Appraiser and Second Appraiser, then the appraisal shall be the sum of the appraisals of the First Appraiser, Second Appraiser and Third Appraiser, divided by three (3). The appraisal process shall commence not later than forty-five (45) days prior to the effective date of the Assignment and be concluded within thirty (30) days after the start of such forty-five (45) day period. The appraisal shall be limited to the then prevailing fair market rental value of the Premises.
17.8 Reasonableness of Restrictions. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that each of the rights of Landlord set forth in Section 17, above, in the event of a request for Landlord's consent to an Assignment is a reasonable restriction for purposes of Nevada law.
ARTICLE 18
NOTICES
Notices shall be given by personal service or by United States certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by telegram, mailgram or same-day or overnight private courier, addressed to the party to be served at the addresses indicated in Paragraphs N or O of the BLP or such other address as the party to be served may from time to time designate in a Notice to the other party and/or pursuant to applicable Nevada law ("Notices"). Notice personally served shall be effective when delivered to the party upon whom such Notice is served. If served by registered or certified mail, Notice shall be conclusively deemed served on the date shown on the return receipt, but if delivery is refused or the Notice is unclaimed, Notice shall conclusively be deemed given forty eight (48) hours after mailing. If served by telegram, mailgram or private courier, Notice to the addressee shall be conclusively deemed given as confirmed by the telegraphic agency or private courier service making delivery. Copies of any Notice shall be sent to the addresses, if any, designated for service of copies of Notices in Paragraphs N and O of the BLP; but the inadvertent failure to serve a copy of a Notice, either to the address so designated or in the manner provided in this Section, shall not render service of Notice invalid if the original Notice is served in accordance with this Section. Notice given by facsimile or telecopy shall not be effective unless receipt of such Notice is acknowledged by the recipient in writing, in which case the effective date of such Notice shall be the date of such written acknowledgement. Each party that executes this Lease as a Tenant specifically agrees and consents that service of legal process to Tenant may be effected in the manner(s) permitted above at the address specified in Paragraph O of the BLP. Service shall be deemed to be completed as provided above.
ARTICLE 19
SURRENDER OF POSSESSION
19.0 Surrender. Prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the tenancy created hereunder, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, Tenant shall remove all signs and surrender the Premises broom clean and in the same condition and repair as at the Delivery Date, ordinary wear and tear excepted.
19.1 Holding Over. Should Tenant hold over in the Premises beyond the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, the holding over shall not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease or give Tenant any rights under this Lease. In such event, Landlord may, in its sole discretion, treat Tenant as a tenant at will, subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Lease, except that for the first thirty (30) days of such holdover the Minimum Annual Rental shall be an amount equal to two (2) times the sum of Minimum Rent and Percentage Rent (collectively, "Base") which was payable by Tenant for the twelve (12)-month period immediately preceding the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and thereafter shall be three (3) times Base until the holdover is terminated. In the event that Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless from all loss or liability which may accrue therefrom including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on or resulting from Tenant’s failure to surrender. Acceptance by Landlord of any Minimum Rent, Percentage Rent or Additional Rent after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease shall not constitute a consent to a holdover hereunder, shall not constitute acceptance of Tenant as a tenant at will, and shall not result in a renewal of this Lease unless Landlord expressly acknowledges such consent in writing at that time.
19.2 Removal of Tenant's Property. Upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease or upon any earlier termination thereof, Tenant shall remove at its own expense all trade fixtures, equipment, merchandise, and personal property (collectively called "Tenant's Property" in this Lease) which were installed by Tenant or any subtenant, concessionaire or licensee in or upon the Premises; but if Tenant is in Default (as defined in Article 24 below), Tenant shall not remove Tenant’s Property unless notified by Landlord to do so. In case of any injury or damage to the building or any portion of the Premises resulting from the removal of Tenant's Property, Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord the cost of repairing such injury or damage, with interest thereon at the Interest Rate (as defined in Section 3.5). Tenant shall complete such removal by the time provided in Section 19.1 unless prevented from so doing by a Force Majeure event, otherwise Landlord may, at Landlord's option, retain any or all of Tenant's Property; and title thereto shall thereupon vest in Landlord without the execution of documents of sale or conveyance by Tenant, or Landlord may remove any or all items of Tenant's Property from the Premises and dispose of them in any manner Landlord sees fit, and Tenant shall pay upon demand to Landlord the actual expense of such removal and disposition together with interest from the date of payment by Landlord until repayment by Tenant.
ARTICLE 20
QUIET ENJOYMENT
Subject to the provisions of this Lease (including, but not limited to, the provisions of Section 31.23, below), the terms of any Agreements and conditioned upon performance of all of the provisions to be performed by Tenant hereunder, Landlord shall secure to Tenant during the Term the quiet and peaceful possession of the Premises and all rights and privileges appertaining thereto.
ARTICLE 21
SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT
21.0 Lender’s Cure. It is understood that Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure any default on the part of Landlord. Tenant agrees that if a Lender shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, neither the Lender nor its successors or assigns shall be: (a) liable for any prior act or omission of Landlord, (b) subject to any claims, offsets, credits or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including Landlord); or (c) bound by any assignment (except as otherwise expressly permitted hereunder), surrender, release, waiver, amendment or modification of the Lease made without such Lender's prior written consent; or (d) obligated to make any payment to Tenant or be liable for refund of all or any part of any Security Deposit, or other prepaid charge to Tenant held by Landlord for any purpose unless the Lender shall have come into exclusive possession of such Security Deposit, or charge. In addition, if a Lender shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, the Lender shall have no obligation, nor incur any liability, beyond its then equity interest, if any, in the Property. In the event that a Lender (or any person or entity to whom the Mortgage may subsequently be assigned) notifies Tenant of a default under the Mortgage and demands that Tenant pay its Rent and all other sums due under this Lease to the Lender, Tenant shall honor such demand without inquiry and pay its Rent and all other sums due under this Lease directly to the Lender or as otherwise required pursuant to such notice, unless notified otherwise by Landlord.
21.1 Lease Subordinate. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that at Lender's election this Lease shall be subordinate to the lien of any Mortgage, but that, at the Lender's election, this Lease may be made prior to the lien of any Mortgage, and in the event a Lender succeeds to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, then at the Lender's election (a) Tenant shall be bound to the Lender under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease for the remaining balance of the Term hereof, with the same force and effect as if the Lender were the lessor hereunder, and Tenant does hereby agree to attorn to the Lender as its lessor without requiring the execution of any further instruments immediately upon the Lender succeeding to the interest of Landlord under this Lease; provided, however, that Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to the Lender any instrument reasonably requested by it to evidence such attornment; and (b) subject to the observance and performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease on the part of the Tenant to be observed and performed, the Lender shall recognize the leasehold estate of Tenant under all of the terms and conditions of this Lease for the remaining balance of the Term with the same force and effect as if the Lender were the lessor under the Lease.
ARTICLE 22
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Within ten (10) days after receipt of written request therefor, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver without cost or expense to the Landlord or such Lender requesting same, an Estoppel Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F ("Estoppel") 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), certifying the dates to which all Minimum Rent and any Additional Rent have been paid, and stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of Tenant, Landlord is in default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease, and, if so, specifying each such default of which Tenant may have knowledge, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant thereto may be relied upon by any other person with whom Landlord or such Lender may be dealing. Failure of Tenant to execute and deliver such Estoppel within the time period specified above shall constitute, at Landlord's election, either (a) a Default by Tenant under this Lease, or (b) acceptance of the Premises by Tenant and Tenant's acknowledgment that the statements set forth in the Estoppel are true and correct, without exception. Further, for each day that Tenant fails to exclude and deliver such Estoppel beyond the time period specified above, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a service charge of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) per day.

DEFAULT
24.0 Events of Default. Should Tenant at any time be in default with respect to any payment of Minimum Rent or Additional Rent or any other charge payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease for a period of five (5) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant (provided, however, any notice shall be in compliance with any notice required under Nevada Law), or should Tenant be in default in the prompt and full performance of any other of its promises, covenants or agreements herein contained for more than a reasonable time (in no event to exceed thirty (30) days) after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant specifying the particulars of the default (provided, however, any notice shall be in compliance with any notice required under Nevada law), or should Tenant vacate or abandon the Premises, or should Tenant make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or should there be filed against Tenant a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, same is dismissed within sixty (60) days), or should Tenant institute any proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar or successor statute, code or act, or should an appointed trustee or receiver take possession of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease where possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days, or should of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or Tenant's interest in this Lease be attached or judicially seized where the seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days, then Landlord may treat the occurrence of any one (1) or more of the foregoing events as a breach of this Lease ("Default") and, in addition to any or all other rights or remedies of Landlord by law provided, Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord's option, without further notice or demand of any kind to Tenant or any other person, (a) to declare the Term ended and to re-enter and take possession of the Premises and remove all persons therefrom, or (b) without declaring this Lease terminated and without terminating Tenant's right to possession, to re-enter the Premises and occupy the whole or any part for and on account of Tenant and to collect any unpaid rentals and other charges which have become payable or which may thereafter become payable, or (c) even though it may have re-entered the Premises as provided in subparagraph (b) above, to thereafter elect to terminate this Lease and all of the rights of Tenant in or to the Premises. In any case in which Landlord shall re-enter and occupy the whole or any part of the Premises, by unlawful detainer proceedings or otherwise, Landlord, at its option, may repair, alter, subdivide or change the character of the Premises from time to time in such manner as Landlord deems best, may relet the Premises or any part thereof and receive the rents therefor, and none of such actions shall constitute a termination of this Lease, a release of Tenant from any liability hereunder, or result in the release or exoneration of any guarantor. Landlord shall not be deemed to have terminated this Lease or the liability of Tenant to pay any Minimum Rent or Additional Rent or other charges later accruing by any re-entry of the Premises pursuant to subparagraph (b) above, or by any action in unlawful detainer or otherwise to obtain possession of the Premises, unless Landlord shall have notified Tenant in writing that it has so elected to terminate this Lease.
24.1 Termination of Lease. Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions of Sections 24.1 (a) or (c) above, Landlord may recover from Tenant, as damages, the following: (a) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rental which had been earned at the time of the termination, plus (b) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rental which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, plus (c) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rental for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, plus (d) any other amounts necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in (i) retaking possession of the Premises, including reasonable attorneys' fees therefor, (ii) maintaining or preserving the Premises after any default, (iii) preparing the Premises for reletting to a new tenant, including repairs or alterations to the Premises, (iv) leasing commissions, or (v) any other costs necessary or appropriate to relet the Premises, plus (e) at Landlord's election, any other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of Nevada.
As used in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum lawful rate. As used in subparagraph (c) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank situated nearest to the location of the Shopping Center at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
24.2 Definition of Rental. For purposes of this Article 24 only, the term "rental" shall be deemed to be Minimum Rent, Percentage Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease. For the purpose of calculating Percentage Rent due under the provisions of Section 24.2(c) above, the same shall be computed on the basis of the average monthly amount accruing during the immediately preceding sixty (60)-month period, except that if it becomes necessary to compute Percentage Rent before the sixty (60)-month period has occurred, then Percentage Rent shall be computed on the basis of the average monthly amount accruing during the Term.
24.3 Nonmonetary Defaults. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 24, if the Default complained of, other than a Default for the payment of monies, cannot be rectified or cured within the period requiring rectification or curing, as specified in the written notice relating to the Default, then, as to a Default susceptible to being cured, the Default shall be deemed to be rectified or cured if Tenant, within the notice period, shall have commenced to rectify or cure the Default and shall thereafter diligently and continuously prosecute same to completion, in no event to exceed forty-five (45) days.
24.4 Assignment of Rents and Profits. In the event of Default by Tenant hereunder, Tenant hereby grants to and confers upon Landlord the right, power and authority, at Landlord's sole option and without affecting any of Landlord's other rights or remedies hereunder, to collect all rents and profits received by Tenant as a result of the possession by Tenant of the Premises. Such amounts shall include, but shall not be limited to, amounts due under sublease, license or concession arrangements. Upon any such default, Landlord shall have the right to collect such rents and profits, including those past due and unpaid. The collection of such rents and profits shall not cure, waive or satisfy any Default or notice of Default hereunder.
24.5 Use of Tenant's Property. If Landlord elects to re-enter the Premises without termination, as provided in Section 24.1(b), Landlord may at Landlord's election use Tenant's personal property and trade fixtures or any of such property and fixtures without compensation and without liability for use or damage, or store them for the account and at the cost of Tenant. The election of one remedy for any one item shall not foreclose an election of any other remedy for another item or for the same item at a later time.
24.6 Injunctive Relief. In addition to the other remedies provided in this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to injunctive relief in case of the violation, or attempted or threatened violation, of any covenant, agreement, condition or provision of this Lease and to a decree compelling performance of any covenant, agreement, condition or provision of this Lease and to any other remedy allowed to Landlord at law or in equity.
24.7 Indemnification. Nothing in this Article 24 shall be deemed to affect Landlord's right to defense and indemnification for liability or liabilities arising prior to the termination of this Lease for personal injuries or property damage under the indemnification clause or clauses contained in this Lease.
24.8 Notice of Termination. No reentry or re-letting of the Premises shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate Tenant's right to possession and this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given by Landlord to Tenant; and notwithstanding any such re-letting without such termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate Tenant's right to possession and this Lease in the event that at such time Tenant remains in default hereunder.
24.9 Waiver of Notice; Performance by Landlord. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article 24, (a) if Tenant is required to comply with any governmental requirement and so long as Tenant or tenant’s representative has received notice of the governmental requirement, Tenant shall not be entitled to notice of default from Landlord and right to cure beyond the period within which such compliance may be required by such governmental requirement; or (b) if this Lease expressly provides that this Lease may be terminated effective on service of notice, Tenant shall be entitled to cure its default only if the right to cure is required by law; or (c) if in Landlord's judgment the continuance of any Default by Tenant for the full period of notice provided for herein will jeopardize the Premises, risk injury to persons or jeopardize the rights of Landlord, Landlord may, with or without notice, elect to perform those acts in respect to which Tenant is in default for the account and at the expense of Tenant. If by reason of such Default by Tenant, Landlord is compelled to pay or elects to pay any sum of money, including, but without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, such sum or sums so paid by Landlord, with interest thereon from the date of such payment at the Interest Rate, shall be due from Tenant to Landlord on the first day of the month next following such payment by Landlord.
24.10 Other Remedies. Nothing contained in this Lease shall limit Landlord to the remedies set forth in this Article 24, and particularly those which are set forth in Section 24.1; and upon Tenant's Default, Landlord shall be entitled to exercise any right or remedy then provided by law, including, but without limitation, the right to obtain injunctive relief and the right to recover all damages caused by Tenant's Default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease.
24.11 Default/Payment of Rent.
(a) In the event that Tenant is in Default under any provision of this Lease and Landlord gives Tenant a notice to pay Rent or to cure any other Default under this Lease more than two times during any five (5) year period of this Lease or any extension thereof, then in addition to any and all other rights and remedies under this Lease or any applicable law, Minimum Rent shall automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance, rather than monthly, notwithstanding Section 3.1 or any other provision of this Lease to the contrary.
(b) In the event that Tenant pays Minimum Rent or any other sum(s) due pursuant to this Lease by means of a personal and/or business check, and the check is not honored by the institution upon which it is drawn, then in addition to any and all other rights and remedies under this Lease or any applicable law, Minimum Rent and Additional Rent shall automatically become due and payable via cashier's check, notwithstanding Article 3 or any other provision of this Lease to the contrary. Additionally, Tenant shall pay Landlord, as Additional Rent, an administration fee equal to Two Hundred Dollars ($200.00) for each check which is not honored by the institution upon which it is drawn.
24.13 Inducement Recapture. Any agreement for free or abated rent or other charges, or for the giving or paying by Landlord to or for Tenant of any cash or other bonus, inducement or consideration for Tenant's entering into this Lease, all of which concessions are hereinafter referred to as “Inducement Provisions”, shall be deemed conditioned upon Tenant's full and faithful performance of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. Upon breach of this Lease by Tenant, any such Inducement Provision shall automatically be deemed deleted from this Lease and of no further force or effect, and any rent, other charge, bonus, inducement or consideration theretofore abated, given or paid by Landlord under such an Inducement Provision shall be immediately due and payable by Tenant to Landlord, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of said breach by Tenant. The acceptance by Landlord of rent or the cure of the breach which initiated the operation of this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver by Landlord of the provisions of this paragraph unless specifically so stated in writing by Landlord at the time of such acceptance.
ARTICLE 25
BANKRUPTCY
Tenant acknowledges that this is a Shopping Center lease within the meaning of 11 USC Section 365. In the event that Tenant shall become a Debtor under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, and the Bankruptcy Trustee or Tenant shall elect to assume this Lease for the purpose of assigning the same or otherwise, such election and assignment may only be made if all of the terms and conditions of this Lease are fully satisfied. If such Trustee shall fail to elect or assume this Lease within ninety (90) days after the filing of the Petition, this Lease shall be deemed to have been rejected. Landlord shall be thereupon immediately entitled to possession of the Premises without further obligation to Tenant or Trustee, and this Lease shall be canceled, but Landlord's right to be compensated for damages in such liquidation proceeding shall survive.
ARTICLE 26
LANDLORD'S DEFAULT; NOTICE TO LENDER
26.0 Landlord's Default. In the case of a monetary default, Landlord shall have a period of thirty (30) days after notice thereof from Tenant to cure such monetary default. In the case of a non-monetary default, Landlord shall commence promptly to cure such default after receipt of written notice from Tenant specifying the nature of such default and should complete such cure within thirty (30) days thereafter, provided that if the nature of the non-monetary default is such that it cannot be cured within said thirty (30)-day period, Landlord shall have such additional time as may be reasonably necessary to complete its performance so long as Landlord has proceeded with diligence after receipt of Tenant's notice and continues to proceed with diligence to cure such default. Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease or to withhold or to deduct Rent as a remedy for any Landlord default hereunder; Tenant's only right shall be a claim for damages, and it is expressly agreed that any judgment for damages obtained by Tenant shall be satisfied only out of Landlord's net equity in the Shopping Center. Tenant specifically agrees to look solely to Landlord's net equity interest in the Shopping Center for recovery of any judgment from Landlord, it being specifically agreed that no constituent member, manager, shareholder, officer, director, partner, employee, agent, representative, or joint venturer of Landlord shall ever be personally liable for any such judgment or for the payment of any monetary obligation to Tenant. The provision contained in the foregoing sentence shall not limit any right that Tenant might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief against Landlord or Landlord's successors-in-interest, or any action not involving the personal liability of Landlord (original or successor). Furthermore, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, in no event shall Landlord (original or successor) ever be liable to Tenant for any indirect or consequential damages suffered by Tenant from whatever cause.
26.1 Notice to Lender. Whenever Tenant is required to serve notice on Landlord of Landlord's default, written notice may also be served upon the Lender, but in no event shall Lender be served less than 45 days after serving written notice upon Landlord and Landlord’s failure to cure thereafter. Should Landlord be unable to cure any material default, Lender shall have a reasonable period of time thereafter within which to cure Landlord's defaults. In this connection any representative of the Lender shall have the right to enter upon the Premises for the purpose of curing Landlord's default.
ARTICLE 27
EFFECT OF CONVEYANCE
If during the Term of this Lease, Landlord conveys its interest in the Premises, or this Lease, then from and after the effective date of such conveyance, Landlord shall be released and discharged from any and all further obligations and responsibilities under this Lease, provided that the new Landlord assumes the obligations and responsibilities of the Landlord, whether in writing or operation of law.,
ARTICLE 28
SAFETY AND HEALTH
Tenant covenants at all times during the term of this Lease to comply with the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, 29 U.S.C. Section 651 et seq. and any analogous legislation in the State of Nevada (collectively the "Act"), to the extent that the Act applies to the Premises and any activities thereon. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant covenants to maintain all working areas, all machinery, structures, electrical facilities and the like upon the Premises in a condition that fully complies with the requirements of the Act, including such requirements as would be applicable with respect to agents, employees or contractors of Landlord who may from time to time be present upon the Premises (except to the extent that the particular activities of such agents, employees or contractors of Landlord on the Premises require safety precautions or alterations of the conditions of the Premises beyond the requirements of such Act otherwise applicable to the Premises, in which event Tenant shall not be obligated to undertake or provide any such additional safety precautions or alterations of conditions), and Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any liability, claim or damages, arising as a result of a breach of the foregoing covenant and from all costs, expenses and charges arising therefrom, including without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and court costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, which indemnity shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
30.0 Hazardous Substances. Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Substance (as defined hereinbelow) to be kept, maintained, used, stored, produced, generated or disposed of (into the sewage or waste disposal system or otherwise) on or in the Premises by Tenant or Tenant's agents, employees, contractors, invitees, assignees or sublessees, without first obtaining Landlord's written consent. Tenant shall immediately notify, and shall direct Tenant's agents, employees, contractors, invitees, assignees and sublessees to immediately notify, Landlord of any incident in, on or about the Premises or the Shopping Center (or any part thereof), that would require the filing of a notice under any federal, state, local or quasi-governmental law (whether under common law, statute or otherwise), ordinance, decree, code, ruling, award, rule, regulation or guidance document now or hereafter enacted or promulgated, as amended from time to time, in any way relating to or regulating any Hazardous Substance. As used herein, "Hazardous Substance" means: (i) any substance which is toxic, ignitable, reactive, or corrosive and which is regulated by any local government, the State of Nevada, or the United States government, other than any prescription medicines approved by the FDA for public sale; (ii) any and all material or substances which are defined as "hazardous waste," "extremely hazardous waste" or a "hazardous substance" pursuant to state, federal or local governmental law; and (iii) asbestos, polychlorobiphenyls (i.e., PCB's) and petroleum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord acknowledges that Tenant will maintain products in the Premises which are incidental to the operation of its business, which products contain chemicals which are categorized as a Hazardous Substance.
