of the Demised Premises is required to be surrendered to the condemning
authority and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or the condemning
authority for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease, but may make claims
that Tenant may be entitled to under Pennsylvania law for moving expenses. In
the event such partial taking or conveyance is not extensive enough to render
the Demised Premises unsuitable for the business of Tenant, this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect except that the rent shall be abated in the
same proportion that the rentable quare feet of the Demised Premises so taken or
conveyed bears to area immediately prior to such taking or conveyance, such
reduction commencing as of the date Tenant is required to surrender possession
of such portion. Landlord shall promptly restore the Demised Premises or Real
Property, to the extent of condemnation proceeds available for such purpose, as
nearly as practicable to a condition comparable to their condition at the time
of such condemnation less the portion lost in the taking or conveyance and
Tenant shall promptly make all necessary repairs, restoration and alterations of
Tenant's fixtures, equipment and furnishings and shall promptly re-enter the
Demised Premises and commence doing business in accordance with the provisions
of this Lease.

provided for above in Section 16.02 hereof shall have been given and this Lease
shall be terminated; then, in all or any of such events, in addition to, and not
in lieu of, all other remedies of Landlord, Landlord may re-enter the Demised
Premises, either by summary legal proceedings and dispossess Tenant and the
legal representative of Tenant or other occupant of the Demised
15
Premises, and repossess and enjoy the Demised Premises, together with all
alterations, additions and improvements, all without being liable to prosecution

Termination Fee.
(b) In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the
covenants or provisions hereof, Landlord shall have the right of
injunction and the right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in
equity as if re-entry, summary proceedings and other remedies were not

superseding and cancelling the same. Except as herein otherwise provided, no

modification is to be enforced.
