i. this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the modifications);
ii. the dates, if any, to which Rent, Additional Charges and other sums payable hereunder have been paid;
iii. no notice has been received by Tenant of any Default which has not been cured, except as otherwise specified in such certificate, or, if there is an uncured Default, specifying the nature of such;
