The exact amount of such costs is impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs may include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges and late charges which may be imposed on Landlord by any ground lease, mortgage or trust deed encumbering the Premises. Therefore, if Landlord does not receive any Rent payment within five (5) days after it becomes due, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount. The parties agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of such late payment.

Within thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant, a statement, in reasonable detail, of the actual trash refuse expenses and sewer expenses incurred by Landlord during the preceding calendar year.

Any attempted transfer without consent shall be void and shall constitute a breach of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, without the prior consent of Landlord (a “Permitted Transfer”), to (a) an Affiliate (as defined below) of Tenant, (b) an entity into which Tenant is merged, consolidated or converted (or the resulting entity in any merger of any other entity into or with Tenant), or (c) to an entity to which fifty percent (50%) or more of Tenant’s assets are transferred (each, a “Permitted Transferee”); provided, however, (a) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such Permitted Transfer prior to such Permitted Transfer or, if the Permitted Transfer is subject to a confidentiality or nondisclosure agreement, as soon thereafter as reasonably practical, (b) the Permitted Transferee must carry on the same use from the Premises as Tenant and (c) Tenant shall remain liable under the terms of the Lease.

On the occurrence of any default by Tenant after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand except as may be required by applicable law, and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any right or remedy which Landlord may have, Landlord may:
(a) Terminate Xxxxxx’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 Landlord. In such event, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all actual damages incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s default, including without limitation (i) the worth at the time of the award of the unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which had been earned at the time of the termination; (ii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which would have been earned after termination until the time of the award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which would have been paid for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under the Lease or which, in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, any reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in maintaining or preserving the Premises after such default, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary repair, Landlord’s reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred in connection therewith, and any unamortized real estate commission paid or payable, to the extent applicable to the remainder of the Lease Term.

Notwithstanding anything contained above to the contrary, in no event shall Tenant be liable to Landlord hereunder for speculative, special or punitive damages.

In such event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Xxxx as it becomes due hereunder. Xxxxxxxx’s election to maintain Tenant’s right to possession shall not prejudice Landlord’s right, at any time thereafter to terminate Tenant’s right to possession and proceed in accordance with Section 10.03(a) above;
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under the laws or judicial decisions of the State of Nevada.
(d) Cumulative Remedies
Xxxxxxxx’s exercise of any right or remedy shall not prevent it from exercising any other right or remedy.
