acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises.

not be required to insure Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations
unless the item in question has become the property of Lessor under the
terms of this Lease.

8.5, Lessee at its cost shall either by separate policy or, at Lessor's

caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or
from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, fire

fixtures, or from any other cause, whether said injury or damage results
from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the

9. Damage or Destruction.
9.1 Definitions.
(a) "Premises Partial Damage" shall mean damage or destruction to the
Premises, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, the
repair cost of which damage or destruction is less than fifty percent (50%)
of the then Replacement Cost (as defined In Paragraph 9. 1 (d)) of the
Premises (excluding Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and
Trade Fixtures) immediately prior to such damage or destruction.
(b) "Premises Total Destruction" shall mean damage or destruction to the
Premises, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, the

to such damage or destruction. In addition, damage or destruction to the
Building, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and
Trade Fixtures of any lessees of the Building, the cost of which damage or
destruction is fifty percent (50%) or more of the then Replacement Cost
(excluding Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade
Fixtures of any lessees of the Building) of the Building shall, at the
option of Lessor, be deemed to be Premises Total Destruction.

described in Paragraph 8.3(a) irrespective of any deductible amounts or

such damage (but not Lessee's Trade Fixtures or Lessee-Owned Alterations and
Utility Installations) as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect. In the event, however, that there is a
shortage of insurance proceeds and such shortage is due to the fact that, by
reason of the unique nature of the improvements in the Premises, full
replacement cost insurance coverage was not commercially reasonable and
available, Lessor shall have no obligation to pay for the shortage in
insurance proceeds or to fully restore the unique aspects of the Premises
unless Lessee provides Lessor with the funds to cover same, or adequate
assurance thereof, within ten (10) days following receipt of written notice
of such shortage and request therefor. If Lessor receives said funds or
adequate assurance thereof within said ten (10) day period, Lessor shall
complete them as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall remain in
full force and effect. If Lessor does not receive such funds or assurance
within said period, Lessor may nevertheless elect by written notice to
Lessee within ten (10) days thereafter to make such restoration and repair
as is commercially reasonable with Lessor paying any shortage in proceeds,
in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. If Lessor
does not receive such funds or assurance within such ten (10) day period,
and if Lessor does not so elect to restore and repair, then this Lease shall
terminate sixty (60) days following the occurrence of the damage or
destruction. Unless otherwise agreed, Lessee shall in no event have any
right to reimbursement from Lessor for any funds contributed by Lessee to
repair any such damage or destruction. Premises Partial Damage due to flood
or earthquake shall be subject to Paragraph 9.3 rather than Paragraph 9.2,
notwithstanding that there may be some insurance coverage, but the net
proceeds of any such insurance shall be made available for the repairs if
made by either Party.
9.3 Partial Danage - Uninsured Loss. If Premises Partial Damage that is not
an Insured Loss occurs, unless caused by a negligent or willful act of
Lessee (in which event Lessee shall make the repairs at Lessee's expense and
this Lease shall continue in full force and effect), Lessor may, at Lessor's
option, either (i) repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at
Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect, or (ii) give written notice to Lessee within thirty (30) days after
receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such damage of Lessors
desire to terminate this Lease as of the date sixty (60) days following the
date of such notice. In the event Lessor elects to give such notice of
Lassoes intention to terminate this Lease, Lessee shall have the right

totally at Lessee's expense and without reimbursement from Lessor. Lessee
shall provide Lessor with the required funds or satisfactory assurance
thereof within thirty (30) days following such commitment from Lessee. In
such event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessor
shall proceed to make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible after the
required funds are available. If Lessee does not give such notice and
provide the funds or assurance thereof within the times specified above,
this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in Lessor's notice of
termination.

authorized public authority), this Lease shall terminate sixty (60) days
following the date of such Premises Total Destruction, whether or not the
damage or destruction is an Insured Loss or was caused by a negligent or
willful act of Lessee. In the event, however, that the damage or destruction
was caused by Lessee, Lessor shall have the right to recover Lessor's damages
from Lessee except as released and waived in Paragraph 9.7.
9.5 Damage Near End of Term. If at any time during the last six (6) months
of the term Of this Lease there is damage for which the cost to repair
exceeds one month's Base Rent, whether or not an Insured Loss, Lessor may,
at Lessor's option, terminate this Lease effective sixty (60) days following
the date of occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to Lessee of
Lessor's election to do so within thirty (30) days after the date of
occurrence of such damage. Provided, however, if Lessee at that time has an
exercisable option to extend this Lease or to purchase the Premises, then
Lessee may preserve this Lease by (a) exercising such option, and (b)
providing Lessor with any shortage in insurance proceeds (or adequate
assurance thereof) needed to make the repairs on or before the earlier of
(i) the date which is ten (10) days after Lessee's receipt of Lessor's
written notice purporting to terminate this Lease, or (ii) the day prior to
the date upon which such option expires. If Lessee duly exercises such
option during such period and provides Lessor with funds (or adequate
assurance thereof) to cover any shortage in insurance proceeds, Lessor
shall, at Lessor's expense, repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible
and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If Lessee falls to
exercise such option and provide such funds or assurance during such period,
then this Lease shall terminate as of the date set forth in the first
sentence of this Paragraph 9.5.
9.6 Abatement of Rent; Lessee's Remedies.
(a) In the event of (i) Premises Partial Damage or (ii) Hazardous Substance

remediation or restoration continues, shall be abated in proportion to the
degree to which Lessee's use of the Premises is impaired, but not in excess
of proceeds from insurance required to be carried under Paragraph 8.3(b).
Except for abatement of Base Rent, Common Area Operating Expenses and other
charges, if any, as aforesaid, all other obligations of Lessee hereunder
shall be performed by Lessee, and Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor
for any damage suffered by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair,
remediation or restoration.

provisions of this Paragraph 9 and shall not commence in a,
substantial and meaningful way, the repair or restoration of the Premises
within ninety (90) days after such obligation shall accrue, Lessee may, at
any time poor to the commencement of such repair or restoration, give
written notice to Lessor and to any Lenders of which Lessee has actual
notice of Lessee's election to terminate this Lease on a date not less than
sixty (60) days following the giving of such notice. If Lessee gives such
notice to Lessor and such Lenders and such repair or restoration is not
commenced within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, this Lease
shall terminate as of the date specified in said notice. If Lessor or a
Lender commences the repair or restoration of the Premises within thirty
(30) days after the receipt of such notice, this Lease shall continue in
full force and effect. "Commence" as used in this Paragraph 9.6 shall mean
either the unconditional authorization of the preparation of the required
plans, or the beginning of the actual work on the Premises, whichever occurs
first.
9.7 Hazardous Substance Conditions. If a Hazardous Substance Condition
occurs, unless Lessee is legally responsible therefor (in which case Lessee
shall make the investigation and remediation thereof required by Applicable
Requirements and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but
subject to Lessor's rights under Paragraph 6.2(c) and Paragraph 13), Lessor
may, at Lessor's option, either (i) investigate and remediate such Hazardous
Substance Condition, if required, as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's
expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect,
or (ii) if the estimated cost to investigate and remediate such condition
exceeds twelve (12) times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever
is greater, give written notice to Lessee within thirty (30) days after
receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such Hazardous Substance
Condition of Lassoes desire to terminate this Lease as of the date sixty
(60) days following the date of such notice, in the event Lessor elects to
give such notice of Lassoes intention to terminate this Lease, Lessee shall
have the right within ten (10) days after the receipt of such notice to give
written notice to Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay for the excess costs
of (a) investigation and remediation of such Hazardous Substance Condition
to the extent required by Applicable Requirements, over (b) an amount equal
to twelve (12) times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is
greater. Lessee shall provide Lessor with the funds required of Lessee or
satisfactory assurance thereof within thirty (30) days following said
commitment by Lessee. In such event this Lease shall continue in full force
and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such investigation and
remediation as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are
available. If Lessee does not give such notice and provide the required
funds or assurance thereof within the time period specified above, this
Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in Lessor's notice of
termination.

telephone, security, gas and cleaning of the Premises, together with any
taxes thereon. If any such utilities or services are not separately metered
to the Premises or separately billed to the Premises, Lessee shall pay to
Lessor a reasonable proportion to be determined by Lessor of all such
charges jointly metered or billed with other premises in the Building, in
the manner and within the time periods set forth in Paragraph 4.2(d).
12. Assignment and Subletting.
12.1 Lessor's Consent Required.
(a) Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer,
mortgage or otherwise transfer or encumber (collectively, 'assign") or
sublet all or any part of Lessee's interest in this Lease or in the Premises
without Lessor's poor written consent given under and subject to the terms
of Paragraph 36.
(b) A change in the control of Lessee shall constitute an assignment
requiring Lassoes consent. The transfer, on a cumulative basis, of
twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the voting control of Lessee shall
constitute a change in control for this purpose.
(c) The involvement of Lessee or its assets in any transaction, or series of
transactions (by way of merger, sale, acquisition, financing, refinancing,
transfer, leveraged buy-out or otherwise), whether or not a formal
assignment or hypothecation of this Lease or Lessee's assets occurs, which
results or will result in a reduction of the Net Worth of Lessee, as
hereinafter defined, by an amount equal to or greater than twenty-five
percent (25%) of such Net Worth of Lessee as it was represented to Lessor at
the time of full execution and delivery of this Lease or at the time of the
most recent assignment to which Lessor has consented, or as it exists
immediately prior to said transaction or transactions constituting such
reduction, at whichever time said Net Worth of Lessee was or is greater,
shall be considered an assignment of this Lease by Lessee to which Lessor
may reasonably withhold its consent. "Net Worth of Lessee" for purposes of
this Lease shall be the net worth of Lessee (excluding any Guarantors)
established under generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied.
(d) An assignment or subletting of Lessee's interest in this Lease without
Lessor's specific poor written consent shall, at Lassoes option, be a Default
curable after notice per Paragraph 13.1, or a non-curable Breach without the
necessity of any notice and grace period. If Lessor elects to treat such
unconsented to assignment or subletting as a non-curable Breach, Lessor
shall have the right to either: (i) terminate this Lease, or (ii) upon
thirty (30) days' written notice ("Lessor's Notice"), increase the monthly
Base Rent for the Premises to the greater of the then fair market rental
value of the Premises, as reasonably determined by Lessor, or one hundred
ten percent (110%) of the Base Rent then in affect. Pending determination of
the new new fair market rental
value, if disputed by Lessee, Lessee shall pay the amount set forth in
Lessor's Notice, with any overpayment credited against the next installments)
of Base Rent coming due, and any underpayment for the period retroactively
to the effective date of the adjustment being due and payable immediately
upon the determination thereof. Further, in the event of such Breach and
rental adjustment, (i) the purchase price of any option to purchase the
Premises held by Lessee shall be subject to similar adjustment to the then
fair market value as reasonably determined by Lessor (without the Lease
being considered an encumbrance or any deduction for depreciation or
obsolescence, and considering the Premises at its highest and best use and
in good condition) or one hundred ton percent (110%) of the price previously
in effect, (ii) any index-oriented rental or price adjustment formulas
contained in this Lease shall be adjusted to require that the base index be
determined with reference to the index applicable to the time of such
adjustment, and (iii) any fixed rental adjustments scheduled during the
remainder of the Lease term shall be increased in the same ratio as the new
rental bears to the Base Rent in affect immediately prior the adjustment
specified in Lessor's Notice.
(e) Lessee's remedy for any breach of this Paragraph 12.1 by Lessor shall be
limited to compensatory damages and/or injunctive relief.
12.2 Terms and Conditins Applicable to Assignment and Subletting.
(a) Regardless of Lassoes consent, any assignment or subletting shall not
(i) be effective without the express written assumption by such assignee or
sublessee of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease, (ii) release Lessee
of any obligations hereunder, nor (iii) alter the primary liability of
Lessee for the payment of Base Rent and other sums due Lessor hereunder or
for the performance of any other obligations to be performed by Lessee under
this Lease.
(b) Lessor may accept any rent or performance of Lessee's obligations from
any person other than Lessee pending approval or disapproval of an
assignment. Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such
assignment nor the acceptance of any rent for performance shall constitute a
waiver or estoppel of Lessors right to exercise its remedies for the Default
or Breach by Lessee of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease.
(c) The consent of Lessor to any assignment or subletting shall not
constitute a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting by Lessee or
to any subsequent or successive assignment or subletting by the assignee or
sublessee. However, Lessor may consent to subsequent sublettings and
assignments of the sublease or any amendments or modifications thereto
without notifying Lessee or anyone else liable under this Lease or the
sublease and without obtaining their consent, and such action shall not
relieve such persons from liability under this Lease or the sublease.
(d) In the event of any Default or Breach of Lessee's obligation under this
Lease, Lessor may proceed directly against Lessee, any Guarantors or anyone
else responsible for the performance of the Lessee's obligations under this
Lease, including any sublessee, without first exhausting Lessors remedies
against any other person or entity responsible therefor to Lessor, or any
security held by Lessor.
(e) Each request for consent to an assignment or subletting shall be in
writing, accompanied by Information relevant to Lassoes determination as to
the financial and operational responsibility and appropriateness of the
proposed assignee or sublessee, including, but not limited to, the intended
use and/or required modification of the Premises, if any, together with a
non-refundable deposit of $1,000 or ten percent (10%) of the monthly Base
Rent applicable to the portion of the Premises which is the subject of the
proposed assignment or sublease, whichever is greater, as reasonable
consideration for Lessor's considering and processing the request for
consent. Lessee agrees to provide Lessor with such other or additional
information and/or documentation as may be reasonably requested by Lessor.
(f) Any assignee of, or sublessee, under, this Lease shall, by reason of
accepting such assignment or entering into such sublease, be deemed, for the
benefit of Lessor, to have assumed and agreed to conform and comply with
each and every term, covenant, condition and obligation herein to be
observed or performed by Lessee during the term of said assignment or
sublease, other than such obligations as are contrary to or inconsistent
with provisions of an assignment or sublease to which Lessor has
specifically consented in writing.
(g) The occurrence of a transaction described in Paragraph 12.2(C) shall
give Lessor the right (but not the obligation) to require that the Security
Deposit be increased by an amount equal to six (6) times the then monthly
Base Rent, and Lessor may make the actual receipt by Lessor of the Security
Deposit increase a condition to Lessor's consent to such transaction.
(h) Lessor, as a condition to giving its consent to any assignment or
subletting, may require that the amount and adjustment schedule of the rent
payable under this Lease be adjusted to what is then the market value and/or
adjustment schedule for property similar to the Premises as then
constituted, as determined by Lessor.
12.3 Additional Terms and Conditions Applicable to Subletting. The following
terms and conditions shall apply to any subletting by Lessee of all or any
part of the Premises and shall be deemed included in all subleases under
this Lease whether or not expressly incorporated therein:
(a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfers to Lessor all of Lessee's interest
in all rentals and income arising from any sublease of all or a portion of
the Premises heretofore or hereafter made by Lessee, and Lessor may collect
such rent and income and apply same toward Lessee's obligations under this
Lease; provided, however, that until a Breach (as defined in Paragraph 13.1)
shall occur in the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease,
Lessee may, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, receive, collect and
enjoy the rents accruing under such sublease. Lessor shall not, by reason of
the foregoing provision or any other assignment of such sublease to Lessor,
nor by reason of the collection of the rents from a sublessee, be deemed
liable to the sublessee for any failure of Lessee to perform and comply with
any of Lessee's obligations to such sublessee under such Sublease. Lessee
hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such sublessee, upon receipt
of a written notice from Lessor stating that a Breach exists in the
performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, to pay to Lessor the
rents and other charges due and to become due under the sublease. Sublessee
shall rely upon any such statement and request from Lessor and shall pay
such rents and other charges to Lessor without any obligation or right to
inquire as to whether such Breach exists and notwithstanding any notice from
or claim from Lessee to the contrary. Lessee shall have no right or claim
against such sublessee, or, unfit the Breach has been cured, against Lessor,
for any such rents and other charges so paid by said sublessee to Lessor.
(b) In the event of a Breach by Lessee in the performance of its obligations
under this Lease, Lessor, at its option and without any obligation to do so,
may require any sublessee to attorn to Lessor, in which event Lessor shall
undertake the obligations of the sublessor under such sublease from the time
of the exercise of said option to the expiration of such sublease; provided,
however, Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or security
deposit paid by such sublessee to such sublessor or for any other prior
defaults or breaches of such sublessor under such sublease.
(c) Any matter or thing requiring the consent of the sublessor under a
sublease shall also require the consent of Lessor herein.
(d) No sublessee under a sublease approved by Lessor shall further assign or
sublet all or any part of the Premises without Lessor's prior written
consent.
(e) Lessor shall deliver a copy of any notice of Default or Breach
by Lessee to the sublessee, who shall have the right to cure the Default of
Lessee within the grace period, if any, specified In such notice. The
sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset from and against
Lessee for any such Defaults cured by the sublessee.
13. Default; Breach; Remedies.
13.1 Default; Breach. Lessor and Lessee agree that if an attorney is
consulted by Lessor in connection with a Lessee Default or Breach (as
hereinafter defined), $350.00 is a reasonable minimum sum per such
occurrence for legal services and costs in the preparation and service of a
notice of Default, and that Lessor may include the cost of such services and
costs in said notice as rent due and payable to cure said default. A
"Default" by Lessee is defined as a failure by Lessee to observe, comply
with or perform any of the terms, covenants, conditions or rules applicable
to Lessee under this Lease. A "Breach" by Lessee is defined as the
occurrence of any one or more of the following Defaults, and, where a grace
period for cure after notice is specified herein, the failure by Lessee to
cure such Default prior to the expiration of the applicable grace period,
and shall entitle Lessor to pursue the remedies set forth in Paragraphs 13.2
and/or 13.3:
(a) The vacating of the Premises without the intention to reoccupy same, or
the abandonment of the Premises.
(b) Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, the failure by
Lessee to make any payment of Base Rent, Lessee's Share of Common Area
Operating Expenses, or any other monetary payment required to be made by
Lessee hereunder as and when due, the failure by Lessee to provide Lessor
with reasonable evidence of insurance or surety bond required under this
Lease, or the failure of Lessee to fulfill any obligation under this Lease
which endangers or threatens life or property, where such failure continues
for a period of three (3) days following written notice thereof by or on
behalf of Lessor to Lessee.
(c) Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, the
failure by Lessee to provide Lessor with reasonable written evidence (in
duly executed original form, if applicable) of (i) compliance with
Applicable Requirements per Paragraph 6.3, (ii) the inspection, maintenance
and service contracts required under Paragraph 7.1(b). (iii) the rescission
of an unauthorized assignment or subletting per Paragraph 12.1, (iv) a
Tenancy Statement per Paragraphs 16 or 37, (v) the subordination or
non-subordination of this Lease per Paragraph 30, (vi) the guaranty of the
performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease if required under
Paragraphs 1.11 and 37, (vii) the execution of any document requested under
Paragraph 42 (easements), or (viii) any other documentation or information
which Lessor may reasonably require of Lessee under the terms of this Lease,
where any such failure continues for a period of
ten (10) days following written notice by or on behalf of Lessor to Lessee.
(d) A Default by Lessee as to the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions
of this Lease, or of the rules adopted under Paragraph 40 hereof that are to
be observed, complied with or performed by Lessee, other than those
described in Subparagraphs 13.1 (a), (b) or (c), above, where such Default
continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by
or on behalf of Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that if the nature of
Lessee's Default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably
required for its cure, then it shall not be deemed to be a Breach of this
Lease by Lessee if Lessee commences such cure within said thirty (30) day
period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
(e) The occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the making by Lessee
of any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii)
Lessee's becoming a "debtor" as defined in 11 U.S. Code Section 101 or any
successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a petition filed against
Lessee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (iii) the appointment
of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Lessee's
assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where
possession is not restored to Lessee within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the
attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of
Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this
Lease, where such seizure Is not discharged within thirty (30) days;
provided, however, in the event that any provision of this Subparagraph 13.1
(a) is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force
or effect, and shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
(f) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement of Lessee or of any
Guarantor, given to Lessor by Lessee or any Guarantor, was materially false.
(g) If the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease is
guaranteed: (i) the death of a Guarantor, (ii) the termination of a
Guarantor's liability with respect to this Lease other than in accordance
with the terms of such guaranty, (iii) a Guarantor's becoming insolvent or
the subject of a bankruptcy filing, (iv) a Guarantor's refusal to honor the
guaranty, or (v) a Guarantors breach of its guaranty obligation on an
anticipatory breach basis, and Lessee's failure, within sixty (60) days
following written notice by or on behalf of Lessor to Lessee of any such
event, to provide Lessor with written alternative assurances of security,
which, when coupled with the then existing resources of Lessee, equals or
exceeds the combined financial resources of Lessee and the Guarantors that
existed at the time of execution of this Lease.
13.2 Remedies. If Lessee falls to perform any affirmative duty or obligation
of Lessee under this Lease, within ten (10) days after written notice to
Lessee (or in case of an emergency, without notice), Lessor may at its
option (but without obligation to do so), perform such duty or obligation on
Lessee's behalf, including, but not limited to, the obtaining of reasonably
required bonds, insurance policies, or governmental licenses, permits or
approvals. The costs and expenses of any such performance by Lessor shall be
due and payable by Lessee to Lessor upon invoice therefor. If any check
given to Lessor by Lessee shall not be honored by the bank upon which it is
drawn, Lessor, at its own option, may require all future payments to be made
under this Lease by Lessee to be made only by cashier's check. In the event
of a Breach of this Lease by Lessee (as defined in Paragraph 13.1), with or
without further notice or demand, and without limiting Lessor in the
exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such
Breach, Lessor may:
(a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by any lawful
means, in which case this Lease and the term hereof shall terminate and
Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In
such event Lessor shall be entitled to Recover from Lessee: (i) The Worth at
the time of the award of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time
of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which
the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the
time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves
could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of award of
the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the
time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves
could be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to
compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee'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, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of
reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises,
reasonable attorneys' fees, and that portion of any leasing commission paid
by Lessor in connection with this Lease applicable to the unexpired term of
this Lease. The worth at the time of award of the amount referred to in
provision (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be computed by
discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of
San Francisco or the Federal Reserve Bank district in which the Premises are
located at the time of award plus one percent (1%). Efforts by Lessor to
mitigate damages caused by Lessee's Default or Breach of this Lease shall
not waive Lessor's right to recover damages under this Paragraph 13.2. If
termination of this Lease Is obtained through the provisional remedy of
unlawful detainer, Lessor shall have the right to recover in such proceeding
the unpaid rent and damages as are recoverable therein, or Lessor may
reserve the right to recover all or any part thereof in a separate stilt for
such rent and/or damages. If a notice and grace period required under
Subparagraphs 13. 1 (b), (c) or (d) was not previously given, a notice to
pay rent or quit, or to perform or quit, as the case may be, given to Lessee
under any statute authorizing the forfeiture of leases for unlawful detainer
shall also constitute the applicable notice for grace period purposes
required by Subparagraph 13.1(b), (c) or (d). In such case, the applicable
grace period under the unlawful detainer statute shall run concurrently
after the one such statutory notice, and the failure of Lessee to cure the
Default within the greater of the two (2) such grace periods shall
constitute both an unlawful detainer and a Breach of this Lease entitling
Lessor to the remedies provided for in this Lease and/or by said statute.
(b) Continue the Lease and Lessee's right to possession in effect (in
California under California Civil Code Section 1951.4) after Lessee's Breach
and recover the rent as it becomes due, provided Lessee has the right to
sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations. Lessor and Lessee
agree that the limitations on assignment and subletting in this Lease are
reasonable. Acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the
Premises, or the appointment of a receiver to protect the Lessor's interest
under this Lease, shall not constitute a termination of the Lessee's right
to possession.
(C) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor under the
laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are located.
(d) The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the termination of
Lessee's fight to possession shall not relieve Lessee from liability under
any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters occurring or accruing
during the term hereof or by reason of Lessee's occupancy of the Premises.
13.3 Inducement Recapture in Event of Breach. Any agreement by Lessor for
free or abated rent or other charges applicable to the Premises, or for the
giving or paying by Lessor to or for Lessee of any cash or other bonus,
Inducement or consideration for Lessee's entering Into this Lease, all of
which concessions are hereinafter referred to as "Inducement Provisions"
shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee's full and faithful performance of
all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed or
observed by Lessee during the term hereof as the same may be extended. Upon
the occurrence of a Breach (as defined in Paragraph 13.1) of this Lease by
Lessee, 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 Lessor under such an Inducement Provision shall be immediately due and
payable by Lessee to Lessor, and recoverable by Lessor, as additional rent
due under this Lease, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of said Breach by
Lessee. The acceptance by Lessor of rent or the cure of the Breach which
Initiated the operation of this Paragraph 13.3 shall not be deemed a waiver
by Lessor of the provisions of this Paragraph 13.3 unless specifically so
stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such acceptance.
13.4 Late Charges. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to
Lessor of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor 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
upon Lessor by the terms of any ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust
covering the Promises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or other sum
due from Lessee shall not be received by Lessor or Lassoes designee within
ten (10) days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement
for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to six
percent (6%) of such overdue amount. The Parties hereby agree that such late
charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will
Incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by
Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach
with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any
of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late
charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for three (3)
consecutive installments of Base Rent, then notwithstanding Paragraph 4.1 or
any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Base Rent shall, at
Lessor's option, become due and payable quarterly in advance.
13.5 Breach by Lessor. Lessor shall not be deemed in breach of this Lease
unless Lessor falls within a reasonable time to perform an obligation
required to be performed by Lessor. For purposes of this Paragraph 13.5, a
reasonable time shall in no event be less than thirty (30) days after
receipt by Lessor, and by any Lender(s) whose name and address shall have
been furnished to Lessee in writing for such purpose, of written notice
specifying wherein such obligation of Lessor has not been performed;
provided, however, that if the nature of Lessors obligation is such that
more than thirty (30) days after such notice are reasonably required for its
performance, then Lessor shall not be in breach of this Lease if performance
is commenced within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently
pursued to completion.
14. Condemnation. If the Premises or any portion Thereof are taken under the
power of eminent domain or sold under the threat of the exercise of said
(all of which are herein called "condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate
as to the part so taken as of the date, the condemning authority takes title or
possession, whichever first occurs. If more than ten percent (10%) of the
floor area of the Premises, or more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the
portion of the Common Areas designated for Lessee's parking, is taken by
condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee's option, to be exercised in writing
within ten (10) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of
such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days after
the condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this Lease
as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee
does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease
shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises
remaining, except that the Base Rent shall be reduced in the same proportion
as the rentable floor area of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable
floor area of the Premises. No reduction of Base Rent shall occur if the
condemnation does not apply to any portion of the Premises. Any award for the
taking of all or any part of the Premises under the power of eminent domain
or any payment made under threat of the exercise of such power shall be the
property of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as compensation for
diminution of value of the leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as
severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any
compensation, separately awarded to Lessee for Lessee's relocation expenses
and/or loss of Lessee's Trade Fixtures. In the event that this Lease is not
terminated by reason of such condemnation, Lessor shall to the extent of its
not severance damages received, over and above Lessee's share of the legal and
other expenses incurred by Lessor in the condemnation matter, repair any damage
to the Premises caused by such condemnation authority. Lessee shall be
responsible for the payment of any amount In excess of such net severance
damages required to complete such repair.
15. Brokers' Fees
15.1 Procuring Cause. The Broker(s) named in Paragraph 1. 10 is/are the
procuring cause of this Lease.
15.2 Additional Terms. Unless Lessor and Broker(s) have otherwise agreed in
writing, Lessor agrees that: (a) if Lessee exercises any Option (as defined
in Paragraph 39.1) granted under this Lease or any Option subsequently
granted, or (b) if Lessee acquires any rights to the Premises or other
premises in which Lessor has an interest, or (c) if Lessee remains in
possession of the Premises with the consent of Lessor after the expiration
of the term of this Lease after having failed to exercise an Option, or (d)
if said Brokers are the procuring cause of any other lease or sale entered
into between the Parties pertaining to the Premises and/or any adjacent
property in which Lessor has an interest, or (a) if Base Rent is increased,
whether by agreement or operation of an escalation clause herein, then as to
any of said transactions, Lessor shall pay said Broker(s) a fee in
accordance with the schedule of said Broker(s) in effect at the time of the
execution of this Lease.
15.3 Assumption of Obligations. Any buyer or transferee of Lessors interest
in this Lease, whether such transfer is by agreement or by operation of law,
shall be deemed to have assumed Lessor's obligation under this Paragraph 15.
Each Broker shall be an intended third party beneficiary of the provisions
of Paragraph 1.10 and of this Paragraph 15 to the extent of its interest in
any commission arising from this Lease and may enforce that right directly
against Lessor and its successors.
15.4 Representations and Warranties. Lessee and Lessor each represent and
warrant to the other that it has had no dealings with any person, firm,
broker or finder other than as named in Paragraph 1.10(a) in connection with
the negotiation of this Lease and/or the consummation of the transaction
contemplated hereby, and that no broker or other person, firm or entity
other than said named Broker(s) is entitled to any commission or finders fee
in connection with said transaction. Lessee and Lessor do each hereby agree
to indemnify, protect, defend and hold the other harmless from and against
liability for compensation or charges which may be claimed by any such
unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings or
actions of the indemnifying Party, including any costs, expenses, and/or
attorneys' fees reasonably incurred with respect thereto.
16. Tenancy and Financial Statements.
16.1 Tenancy Statement. Each Party (as "Responding Party") shall within ten
(10) days after written notice from the other Party (the "Requesting Party")
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Requesting Party a statement in
writing in a form similar to the then most current "Tenancy Statement" form
published by the American Industrial Real Estate Association, plus such
additional information, confirmation and/or statements as may be reasonably
requested by the Requesting Party.
16.2 Financial Statement. If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell
the Premises or the Building, or any part thereof, Lessee and all Guarantors
shall deliver to any potential lender or purchaser designated by Lessor such
financial statements of Lessee and such Guarantors as may be reasonably
required by such lender or purchaser, including, but not limited to,
Lessee's financial statements for the past three (3) years. All such
financial statements shall be received by Lessor and such lender or
purchaser in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set
forth.
17. Lessor's Liability. The term "Lessor" as used herein shall mean the
owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title to the Premises. In
the event of a transfer of Lassoes title or interest In the Premises or in
this Lease, Lessor shall deliver to the transferee or assignee (in cash or
by credit) any unused Security Deposit held by Lessor at the time of such
transfer or assignment. Except as provided In Paragraph 15.3, upon such
transfer or assignment and delivery of the Security Deposit, as aforesaid,
the prior Lessor shall be relieved of all liability with respect to the
obligations and/or covenants under this Lease thereafter to be performed by
the Lessor. Subject to the foregoing, the obligations and/or covenants in
this Lease to be performed by the Lessor shall be binding only upon the
Lessor as hereinabove defined.
18. Severability. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease, as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the
validity of any other provision hereof.
19. Interest on Past-Due Obligations. Any monetary payment due Lessor
hereunder, other than late charges, not received by Lessor within ten (10)
days following the date on which it was due, shall bear interest from the
date due at the prime rate charged by the largest state chartered bank in
the state in which the Premises are located plus four percent (4%) per
annum, but not exceeding the maximum rate allowed by law, in addition to the
potential late charge provided for in Paragraph 13.4.
20. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance
of all obligations to be performed or observed by the Parties under this Lease.

terms of this Lease are deemed to be rent.
22. No Prior or Other Agreements; Broker Disclaimer. This Lease contains all
agreements between the Parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein,
and no other prior or contemporaneous agreement or understanding shall be
effective. Lessor and Lessee each represents and warrants to the Brokers
that it has made, and is relying solely upon, its own investigation as to
the nature, quality, character and financial responsibility of the other
Party to this Lease and as to the nature, quality and character of the
Premises. Brokers have no responsibility with respect thereto or with
respect to any default or breach hereof by either Party. Each Broker shall
be an intended third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Paragraph 22.

shall be in writing and may be delivered In person (by hand or by messenger
or courier service) or may be sent by regular, certified or registered mail

transmission during normal business hours, and shall be deemed sufficiently
given if served in a manner specified in this Paragraph 23. The addresses
noted adjacent to a Party's signature on this Lease shall be that Party's
address for delivery or mailing of notice purposes. Either Party may by
written notice to the other specify a different address for notice purposes,
except that upon Lessee's taking possession of the Premises, the Premises
shall constitute Lessee's address for the purpose of mailing or delivering
notices to Lessee. A copy of all notices required or permitted to be given
to Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or
parties at such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter
designate by written notice to Lessee.

receipt requested, shall be deemed given on the date of delivery shown on
the receipt card, or if no delivery date is shown, the postmark thereon. If
sent by regular mail, the notice shall be deemed given forty-eight (48)
hours after the same is addressed as required herein and mailed with postage
prepaid. Notices delivered by United States Express Mail or overnight

Saturday or a Sunday or a legal holiday, it shall be deemed received on the
next business day.
24. Waivers. No waiver by Lessor of the Default or Breach of any term,
covenant or condition hereof by Lessee, shall be deemed a waiver of any
other term, covenant or condition hereof, or of any subsequent Default or
Breach by Lessee of the same or any other term, covenant or condition
hereof. Lessors consent to, or approval of, any such act shall not be deemed
to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessors consent to, or approval of,
any subsequent or similar act by Lessee, or be construed as the basis of an
estoppel to enforce the provision or provisions of this Lease requiring such
consent. Regardless of Lessor's knowledge of a Default or Breach at the time
of accepting rent, the acceptance of rent by Lessor shall not be a waiver of
any Default or Breach by Lessee of any provision hereof. Any payment given
Lessor by Lessee may be accepted by Lessor on account of monies or damages
due Lessor, notwithstanding any qualifying statements or conditions made by
Lessee in connection therewith, which such statements and/or conditions
shall be of no force or effect whatsoever unless specifically agreed to in
writing by Lessor at or before the time of deposit of such payment.
25. Recording. Either Lessor or Lessee shall, upon request of the other,
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a short form memorandum of
this Lease for recording purposes. The Party requesting recordation shall be
responsible for payment of any fees or taxes applicable thereto.
26. No Right to Hold. Lessee has no right to retain possession of the
Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease. In the event that Lessee holds over in violation of this
Paragraph 26 then the Base Rent payable from and after the time of the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease shall be increased to two
hundred percent (200%) of the Base Rent applicable during the month
immediately preceding such expiration or earlier termination. Nothing
contained herein shall be construed as a consent by Lessor to any holding
over by Lessee.
27. Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other
remedies at law or in equity.
28. Covenants and Conditions. All provisions of this Lease to be observed or
performed by Lessee are both covenants and conditions.
29. Binding Effect; Choice of Law. This Lease shall be binding upon the
Parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns and be
governed by the laws of the state in which the Premises are located. Any
litigation between the Parties hereto concerning this Lease shall be
initiated in the county in which the Premises are located.
30. Subordination; Attornment; Non-Disturbance.
30.1 Subordination. This Lease and any Option granted hereby shall be
subject and subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or
other hypothecation or security device (collectively, "Security Device"),
now or hereafter placed by Lessor upon the real property of which the
Premises are a part, to any and all advances made on the security thereof,
and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and
extensions thereof. Lessee agrees that the Lenders holding any such Security
Device shall have no duty, liability or obligation to perform any of the
obligations of Lessor under this Lease, but that in the event of Lessor's
default with respect to any such obligation, Lessee will give any Lender
whose name and address have been furnished Lessee in writing for such purpose
notice of Lessor's default pursuant to Paragraph 13.5. if any Lender shall
elect to have this Lease and/or any Option granted hereby superior to the lien
of its Security Device and shall give written notice thereof to Lessee, this
Lease and such Options shall be deemed prior to such Security Device,
notwithstanding the relative dates of the documentation or recordation thereof.
30.2 Attornment. Subject to the non-disturbance provisions of Paragraph
30.3, Lessee agrees to attorn to a Lender or any other party who acquires
ownership of the Premises by reason of a foreclosure of a Security Device,
and that in the event of such foreclosure, such new owner shall hot: (i) be
liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor or with respect to events
occurring prior to acquisition of ownership, (ii) be subject to any offsets
or defenses which Lessee might have against any prior lessor, or (iii) be
bound by prepayment of more than one (1) month's rent.
30.3 Non-Disturbance. With respect to Security Devices entered into by
Lessor after the execution of this Lease, Lessee's subordination of this
Lease shelf be subject to receiving assurance (a "non-disturbance
agreement") from the Lender that Lessee's possession and this Lease,
including any options to extend the term hereof, will not be disturbed so
long as Lessee is not in Breach hereof and attorns to the record owner of
the Premises.
30.4 Self-Executing. The agreements contained in this Paragraph 30 shall be
effective without the execution of any further documents; provided, however,
that upon written request from Lessor or a Lender in connection with a sale,
financing or refinancing of Premises, Lessee and Lessor shall execute such
further writings as may be reasonably required to separately document any
such subordination or non-subordination, attornment and/or non-disturbance
agreement as is provided for herein.
31. Attorneys' Fees. If any Party or Broker brings an action or proceeding
to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the Prevailing
Party (as hereafter defined) in any such proceeding, action, or appeal
thereon, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees. Such fees may be
awarded in the same suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or not
such action or proceeding is pursued to decision or judgment. The term
"Prevailing Party" shall include, without limitation, a Party or Broker who
substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be,
whether by compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other
Party or Broker of its claim or defense. The attorneys' fee award shall not
be computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as
to fully reimburse all attorneys' fees reasonably incurred. Lessor shall be
entitled to attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred in preparation and
service of notices of Default and consultations in connection therewith,
whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with
such Default or resulting Breach. Broker(s) shall be intended third party
beneficiaries of this Paragraph 31.
32. Lessor's Access; Showing Premises; Repairs. Lessor and Lessors agents
shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, in the case of an
emergency, and otherwise at reasonable times for the purpose of showing the
same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or lessees, and making such
alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the
Building, as Lessor may reasonably deem necessary. Lessor may at any time
place on or about the Premises or Building any ordinary "For Sale" signs and
Lessor may at any time during the last one hundred eighty (180) days of the
term hereof place on or about the Premises any ordinary "For Lease" signs.
Ail such activities of Lessor shall be without abatement of Rent or
liability to Lessee.
33. Auctions. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, any auction upon the Premises without first
having obtained Lassoes prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to exercise any
standard of reasonableness in determining whether to grant such consent.
34. Signs. Lessee shall not place any sign upon the exterior of the Premises
or the Building, except that Lessee may, with Lessors prior written consent,
install (but not on the roof) such signs as are reasonably required to
advertise Lessee's own business so long as such signs are in a location
designated by Lessor and comply with Applicable Requirements and the signage
criteria established for the Shopping Center by Lessor. The installation of any
sign on the Premises by or for Lessee shall be subject to the provisions of
Paragraph 7 (Maintenance, Repairs, Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures and
Alterations). Unless otherwise expressly agreed herein, Lessor reserves all
rights to the use of the roof of the Building, and the right to install
advertising signs on the Building, including the roof, which do not
unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Lessee's business; Lessor shall
be entitled to all revenues from such advertising signs.
35. Termination; Merger. Unless specifically stated otherwise in writing by
Lessor, the voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, the mutual
termination or cancellation hereof, or a termination hereof by Lessor for
Breach by Lessee, shall automatically terminate any sublease or lesser
estate in the Premises; provided, however, Lessor shall, in the event of any
such surrender, termination or cancellation, have the option to continue any
one or all of any existing subtenancies. Lessor's failure within ten (10)
days following any such event to make a written election to the contrary by
written notice to the holder of any such lesser interest, shall constitute
Lessors election to have such event constitute the termination of such
interest.
36. Consents.
(a) Except for Paragraph 33 hereof (Auctions) or as otherwise provided
herein, wherever in this Lease the consent of a Party is required to an act
by or for the other Party, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed. Lessors actual reasonable costs and expenses (including, but hot
limited to, architects', attorneys', engineers' and other consultants' fees)
incurred in the consideration of, or response to, a request by Lessee for any
Lessor
consent pertaining to this Lease or the Premises, including, but not limited
to, consents to an assignment, a subletting or the presence or use of a
Hazardous Substance, shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor upon receipt of an
invoice and supporting documentation therefor. In addition to the deposit
described in Paragraph 12.2(e), Lessor may, as a condition to considering
any such request by Lessee, require that Lessee deposit with Lessor an
amount of money (in addition to the Security Deposit held under Paragraph 5)
reasonably calculated by Lessor to represent the cost Lessor will incur in
considering and responding to Lessee's request. Any unused portion of said
deposit shall be refunded to Lessee without interest. Lessor's consent to any
act, assignment of this Lease or subletting of the Premises by Lessee shall
not constitute an acknowledgment that no Default or Breach by Lessee of this
Lease exists, nor shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing
Default or Breach, except as may be otherwise specifically stated In writing
by Lessor at the time of such consent.
(b) All conditions to Lessor's consent authorized by this Lease are
acknowledged by Lessee as being reasonable. The failure to specify herein
any particular condition to Lessor's consent shall not preclude the
impositions by Lessor at the time of consent of such further or other
conditions as are then reasonable with reference to the particular matter
for which consent is being given.
37. Guarantor.
37.1 Form of Guaranity. If there are to be any Guarantors of this Lease per
Paragraph 1.11. the form of the guaranty to be executed by each such
Guarantor shall be in the form most recently published by the American

WHEREAS, Yamamoto Enterprises, Inc., hereinafter "Lessor", and Internet
Golf Association, Inc. , a Nevada Corporation hereinafter "Lessee", are about
to execute a document entitled "Lease" dated May 1, 1999 concerning the
premises commonly known as The Pavilion at Lantern Bay wherein Lessor will
lease the premises to Lessee, and
WHEREAS, Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx and Xxxx X. Zomzamzow
hereinafter "Guarantors" have a financial interest in Lessee, and
WHEREAS, Lessor would not execute the Lease if Guarantors did not execute
and deliver to Lessor this Guarantee of Lease.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the execution of the foregoing Lease by
Lessor and as a material inducement to Lessor to execute said Lease,
Guarantors hereby jointly, severally, unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantee the prompt payment by Lessee of all rents and all other sums
payable by Lessee under said Lease and the faithful and prompt performance
by Lessee of each and every one of the terms, conditions and covenants of
said Lease to be kept and performed by Lessee.
It is specifically agreed that the terms of the foregoing Lease may be
modified by agreement between Lessor and Lessee, or by a course of conduct,
and said Lease may be assigned by Lessor or any assignee of Lessor without
consent or notice to Guarantors and that this Guaranty shall guarantee the
performance of said Lease as so modified.
This Guaranty shall not be released, modified or affected by the failure or
delay on the part of Lessor to enforce any of the rights or remedies of the
Lessor under said Lease, whether pursuant to the terms thereof or at law or
in equity.
No notice of default need be given to Guarantors, it being specifically
agreed that the guarantee of the undersigned is a continuing guarantee under
which Lessor may proceed immediately against Lessee and/or against
Guarantors following any breach or default by Lessee or for the enforcement
of any rights which Lessor may have as against Lessee under the terms of the
Lease or at law or in equity.
Lessor shall have the right to proceed against Guarantors hereunder
following any breach or default by Lessee without first proceeding against
Lessee and without previous notice to or demand upon either Lessee or
Guarantors.
Guarantors hereby waive (a) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, (b)
demand of payment, presentation and protest, (c) all right to assert or
plead any statute of limitations relating to this Guaranty or the Lease, (d)
any right to require the Lessor to proceed against the Lessee or any other
Guarantor or any other person or entity, liable to Lessor, (a) any right to
require Lessor to apply to any default any security deposit or other
security it may hold under the Lease, (f) any right to require Lessor to

Guaranty.
If a Guarantor is married, such Guarantor expressly agrees that recourse may
be had against his or her separate property for all of the obligations
hereunder.
The obligations of Lessee under the Lease to execute and deliver estoppel
statements and financial statements, as therein provided, shall be deemed to
also require the Guarantors hereunder to do and provide the same.
The term "Lessor" refers to and means the Lessor named in the Lease and also
Lassoes successors and assigns. So long as Lessor's interest in
the Lease, the leased premises or the rents, issues and profits therefrom,
are subject to any mortgage or deed of trust or assignment for security, no
acquisition by Guarantors of the Lassoes interest shall affect the
continuing obligation of Guarantors under this Guaranty which shall

mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee or assignee under, such mortgage, deed of
trust or assignment and their successors and assigns.

attorney for his approval. No representation or recommendation is made by the
