FIRE OR CASUALTY DAMAGE Sample Clauses

FIRE OR CASUALTY DAMAGE. In the event of damage by fire, enemy action, or other casualty to the Apartment or the building in which the Apartment is locat­ed, OWNER shall repair the same with reasonable dispatch after written notice of such damage by RESIDENT; provided, however, if the Apartment or the Premises are damaged or destroyed by fire or casualty to an extent that RESIDENT's enjoyment of the Apartment is substantially impaired or required repairs can only be accomplished if RESIDENT vacates the Apartment, either RESIDENT or OWNER may terminate this Lease. RESIDENT may so terminate this Lease by vacating the Apartment and, within 14 days thereafter, serve on OWNER a written notice of RESIDENT’s intention to terminate this Lease, in which case this Lease terminates as of the date of vacating; or if continued occupancy is lawful, Section 55-226 of the Code of Virginia shall apply, it being the intent of the parties that RESIDENT shall remain obligated to pay rent in accordance with such Section 55-226 unless this Lease is terminated under this Section 14.

Such right of OWNER to terminate shall be in addition to the OWNER's rights under Paragraph 5 of this Lease. If RESIDENT fails to vacate the Apartment upon such termi­nation, OWNER may, in addition to all other remedies provided by this Lease, or available in law or at equity, obtain possession of the Apartment in accordance with Paragraph 20 hereof.
