ARTICLE X

DEFAULT BY TENANT AND REMEDIES OF LANDLORD

10.1 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE - EFFECT OF WAIVER

The following occurrences are "Events of Default":

(a) Tenant defaults in the due and punctual payment of rent, and the default continues for ten (10) days after mailing of written notice of the default; provided however. Tenant shall be entitled to only three (3) notices per calendar year and thereafter Tenant shall be in default for failure to pay rent without the necessity of written notice from Landlord; without the necessity of written notice from Landlord;

10

(b) Tenant vacates or abandons the Premises, provided that Tenant is not obligated to continuously operate its business at the Premises so long as Tenant continues to pay any and all rent due and payable hereunder.

(c) This Lease of the Premises or any part of the Premises are taken upon execution or by other process of law directed against Tenant, or are taken upon or subjected to any attachment by any creditor of Tenant or claimant against Tenant, and the attachment is not discharged within sixty (60) days after its levy;

(d) Tenant files a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or arrangement under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any insolvency act of any state, or is dissolved, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors;

(e) Involuntary proceedings under any bankruptcy laws or insolvency act or for the dissolution of Tenant are instituted against Tenant, or a receiver or trustee is appointed for all or substantially all of Tenant's property, and the proceeding is not dismissed or the receivership or trusteeship is not vacated within sixty (60) days after the institution or appointment;

(f) Tenant fails to take possession of the Premises on the Commencement Date of the term; and

(g) Tenant breaches any of the other agreements, terms, covenants, or conditions that this Lease requires Tenant to perform, and the breach continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice by Landlord to Tenant, or such further period of time in the event it is not feasible for Tenant to cure such failure within such thirty-day period, provided that, Tenant shall have begun to perform such covenant within such period and to diligently pursue the completion of the same within a reasonable time thereafter.

If any one or more events of default set forth in this paragraph occurs, then Landlord may, at its election, either:

(a)           Terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant, whereupon Tenant's right to possession of the Premises will cease and the Lease will be terminated. In such case, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for damages in an amount equal to the rent and other sums that would have been owing by Tenant under this Lease for the balance of the term if this Lease had not been terminated, all of which sums shall immediately be due and payable by Tenant. In addition, if this Lease is terminated, Landlord will be entitled to recover from Tenant: (i) all of the unpaid rent and other unpaid sums to the date of termination; and (ii) any other reasonable amount necessary to compensate Landlord for any expenses and costs proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or that in the ordinary course would be likely to result from that failure. Provided, however, that Landlord agrees to take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate its damages by reletting the premises and in the event Landlord is successful in doing so, Tenant shall have a right of offset for such amounts as may be received by Landlord upon such reletting.

11

(b)           (1)           Re-enter and take possession of the Premises, without terminating the Lease, relet the Premises or any part of the Premises, either alone or in conjunction with other portions of the building of which the Premises are a part, in Landlord's or Tenant's name but for the account of Tenant, for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period that would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this Lease) and on such terms and conditions (which may include concessions of free rent, and the alteration and repair of the Premises) as Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, may determine. Landlord may collect and receive the rents for the Premises. Landlord will not be responsible or liable for any failure to re-let the Premises, or any part of the Premises, or for any failure to collect any rent due upon reletting, provided that Landlord shall be obligated to take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate its damages by reletting the Premises. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord will be construed as an election on Landlord's part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. No notice from Landlord under this Lease or under a forcible entry and detainer statute or similar law will constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless the notice specifically says so. Landlord reserves the right following any re-entry or reletting, or both, to exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice, and, in that event, the Lease will terminate as specified in the notice.

(2)           If Landlord elects to take possession of the Premises according to this paragraph (b) without terminating the Lease, Tenant will pay Landlord the rent and other sums that would have been payable under this Lease if such repossession had not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Premises after deducting all of Landlord's reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such reletting, including without limitation, all reasonable repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees, expenses of employees, alteration, remodeling, repair costs, and expenses of preparation for reletting. Tenant will pay such amounts to Landlord monthly on the days on which the rent and all other amounts owing under this Lease would have been payable if possession had not been retaken, and Landlord will be entitled to receive the rent and other amounts from Tenant on those days.

(c)           Suit or suits for the recovery of the rents and other amounts and damages set forth in this paragraph may be brought by Landlord, from time to time, at Landlord's election, and nothing in this Lease will be deemed to require Landlord to await the date on which the term of this Lease expires. Each right and remedy in this Lease will be cumulative and will be in addition to every other right or remedy in this Lease or existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, including without limitation, suits for injunctive relief and specific performance.

12

10.2 NO LANDLORD LIEN

Tenant agrees that should any party so succeeding to the interest of Landlord require a separate agreement of "Attornment Agreement", provided the same does not modify any of the provisions of this Lease, has no adverse effects upon Tenant's continued occupancy of the Premises, and provides that such assignee will not disturb Tenant's possession of the Premises and rights under the Lease (so long as Tenant is not in default beyond any applicable notice or cure period).
