Upon the giving of such latter notice within said thirty (30) day period, such election of Owner to terminate this Lease shall be of no effect and Owner shall proceed to repair or rebuild as herein required.

13.4 Each of the parties hereto mutually releases the other from liability, and waives all right of recovery against the other, for any loss of or damage to the property of each, property of others for which either of the parties hereto is liable, or may become liable, or as to which either may have assumed liability, property of others in the actual or constructive custody of either of the parties hereto, the perils of the commonly referred to Extended Coverage Endorsement and leakage from automatic sprinkler systems, if any, or from perils insured against under any insurance policies maintained by the parties hereto, regardless of the cause of such loss or damage even though it results from some act or negligence of a party hereto, its agents or representatives; provided, however, that this provision shall be inapplicable if it would have the effect, but only to the extent that it would have the effect, of invalidating any insurance coverage of the parties hereto.

ARTICLE XV

DEFAULT

15.1 Tenant's Default: The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease by Tenant:

(a) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days.

(b) The failure by Tenant to comply with the provisions of Article X hereof where such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after written notice thereof by Owner to Tenant.

(c) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than described in Sections 15.1 (a) and (b) above, where such failure shall continue for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice hereof by Owner to Tenant; provided, however that if the nature of Tenant's default is such that more than twenty (20) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant commences such cure within said twenty (20) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.

(d) The making by Tenant of any general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors, or the filing by or against or reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, unless in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days; or the appointment of a trustee or a receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days.

15.2 Remedies of Owner: In the event of any such default or breach by Tenant, Owner may at any time thereafter, in its sole discretion with notice and demand and without limiting Owner in the exercise of a right or remedy which Owner may have by reason of such default or breach:

(a) Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Owner. In such event Owner shall be entitled to recover from Tenant: (i) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus (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 Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided: plus (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 Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, plus (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Owner for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform his obligation under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including all costs of recovering and reletting the Premises and attorney's fees incurred in connection with such termination and (v) at Owner election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable state law.

If Tenant fails to surrender possession upon the termination by Owner of Tenant's right to possession or Tenant's rights under this Lease, Owner shall file and maintain a summary action to recover possession of the Premises and shall also be entitled to recover from Tenant the items set forth in Sections 15.2 (a) (i) to (v) inclusive.

The term rent as used herein shall be deemed to be and to mean the minimum annual rental and all other sums required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease. All such sums, other than the minimum annual rental, shall be computed on the basis of the average monthly amount thereof accruing during the immediately preceding twelve (12) month period prior to default, except that if it becomes necessary to compute such rental before such a twelve (12) month period has occurred, then on the basis of the average monthly amount accruing during such shorter period.

As used in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, provided that in no event shall said interest rate exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. As used in subparagraph (iii) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).

(b) Maintain Tenant's right to possession, in which case this Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises. In such event, Owner shall be entitled to enforce all of Owner's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent and any other charges as may become due hereunder; or

(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Owner under the laws or judicial decisions of the State in which the Premises are located.

No re-entry of the Premises of any nature or the filing of any lawful detainer or similar action shall be construed as an election by Owner to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given by Owner to Tenant and notwithstanding any such re-entry without such termination, Owner may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease.

In the event Tenant commits a default under this Lease during the last twelve (12) months of the initial lease term, or any option period, Owner shall have the right to cancel any remaining option or options provided for in this Lease, whether then exercised or not, by delivery of written notice of its intentions thereof to Tenant.

15.3 Owner's Right to Cure Tenant's Default: After expiration of the applicable time for curing a particular default, Owner may at its election, but is not obligated to, make any payment required of Tenant under this Lease or perform or comply with any covenant or condition imposed on Tenant under this Lease, and the amount so paid plus the reasonable cost of any such performance or compliance plus interest on such sum at the rate of twelve (12%) percent per year from the date of payment, performance, or compliance (herein called "act") shall be deemed to be additional rent payable by Tenant with the next succeeding installment of rent. No such act shall constitute a waiver of default or of any remedy for default or render Owner liable for any loss or damage resulting from any such act.

15.4 Legal Expenses: In the event that at any time during the term of this Lease either the Owner or the Tenant shall institute any action or proceeding against the other relating to the provisions of this Lease, or any default hereunder, then, and in that event, the unsuccessful party in such action or proceeding agrees to reimburse the prevailing party for the reasonable expenses of attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred therein by the successful party. In any action or proceeding instituted by Owner based upon any default or alleged default by Tenant hereunder, Owner shall be deemed the prevailing party if (a) judgment or award is entered in favor of Owner or (b) prior to charges claimed by Owner, eliminate the condition(s), cease the act(s) or otherwise cure that which is claimed by Owner to constitute a default by Tenant hereunder.

15.5 Default by Owner: Owner shall not be in default unless Owner fails to perform obligations required of Owner within a reasonable time, but except for Emergency Items in no event later than twenty (20) days after written notice by Tenant to Owner (which notice must be given within thirty (30) days after the default occurs) and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises in writing, specifying wherein Owner has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however that if the nature of Owner's obligation is such that more than twenty (20) days are required for performance, then Owner shall not be in default if Owner commences performance within such twenty (20) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. Further, any holder of such mortgage or deed of trust may cure such default on behalf of Owner within the same time period provided above within which Owner may cure.
