Tenant acknowledges that parking spaces may not always

Tenant shall pay in advance the monthly charge
established by Owner for said parking spaces, on the
same date that monthly rent is due hereunder. If Tenant
fails to pay such charges when due, Owner may (i)
immediately cease to provide the parking spaces for
which Tenant has failed to pay, or (ii) continue to

Upon payment of the said deposit, Owner shall deliver

shall not be entitled to interest thereon. If Tenant
shall default with respect to any covenant or
condition of this Lease, including but not limited to
the payment of Base Monthly Rent, additional rent or

ten (10) days written notice as provided in Article

sum in default, and any other reasonable amounts which
Owner may be required to spend by reason of Tenant's
default. In the event Owner so applies all or any part
of the deposit, Tenant shall replenish the amount so
applied within ten (10) days of Owner's written
demand. Should Tenant comply with all of the covenants
and conditions of this Lease, the deposit shall be
returned to Tenant (or, at the option of Owner, to the
last assignee of Tenant's interest in this Lease) at

regulation and fails to cure the same immediately upon
Owner's demand (or within any reasonable cure period
established by Owner in its sole discretion) Owner may
withdraw Tenant's privilege to use the Meet-Me Room.
Tenant understands and agrees that Meet-Me Room access
is a privilege and not a right, and that Owner's right
to exclude Tenant from Meet-Me Room access as stated
herein is absolute and not subject to RCW 59.12 et.

making of necessary repairs to the Premises or Building
(provided that Owner has used reasonable efforts not to
interfere with or interrupt the conduct of Tenant's
business at the Premises), nor shall the temporary

the provisions of this Lease.
