at its discretion continue to lease the remainder at a reduced rent determined
by the proportional loss of beneficial use of the premises. In the case of
fire or casualty, Lessor shall have the right to repair, within a reasonable
time, any damage, but no rent shall accrue or be payable on the damaged area
until repairs are completed.

time after notice in writing by Lessee requiring such performance by Lessor.

this lease, signs and notices indicating that the premises are to be let or for
sale to be posted and remain upon the premises.
11. ASSIGNMENT OF LEASE AND SUBLETTING. Lessee shall not assign this lease
or any part thereof or sublet all or part of the premises without Lessor's
written consent, which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or

assignment or subletting, Lessee shall remain liable for the performance of all
terms of this lease.

or at such other address as may be designated in writing by the Lessor or

13. DEFAULT AND TERMINATION. Lessee shall be in default under the terms of
this lease if Lessee:

days after the same becomes due;

(3) becomes bankrupt or insolvent, or any voluntary or involuntary
proceedings under any bankruptcy or debtor relief law are initiated by Lessee,
or Lessee makes any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or
(4) abandons the premises and ceases to pay rent.
In each of the above events Lessor shall have a right of re-entry and is
entitled to recovery of the leased premises and/or to recover judgment for any
and all delinquent installments of rent or other amounts including court and
other costs and attorney fees. The parties agree that payment by Lessee and
acceptance by Lessor of past due rents or other amounts shall not operate as a
waiver of any other right arising because of any other default by Lessee.
5

In addition, Lessor shall have the right to continue this lease and
collect all rents and other amounts as and when due, and this lease shall
continue in full force and effect until Lessor gives Lessee written notice of
intent to terminate Lessee's right to possession. On written notice of
termination, on account of default, Lessee shall immediately and peacefully
surrender possession to Lessor and Lessor shall be entitled to recover from
Lessee all damages sustained by Lessor by reason of such default and all unpaid
rents and other amounts due under the lease to the date of termination.
As security for payment of all sums payable by Lessee under the terms of
this lease, Lessee hereby grants to Lessor a Landlord's lien and security
interest in and to all trade fixtures, equipment, furnishings and other
personal property now or hereafter owned by Lessee and located in or upon the
premises during the term of this lease, equivalent to the amount owed at the
time of default. Lessee shall have no right to remove any of said property
unless and until all defaults are cured and Lessor shall have a lien on all
such property even though removed from the premises. All exemption laws are
hereby waived and such security interest shall be in addition to any statutory
lien or other lien or security interest given or which may be given to Lessor.
So long as Lessee is not in default under the terms of this lease, Lessee shall
have the right to remove from the leased premises all machinery, office
equipment, appliances, and any and all other trade fixtures and equipment
installed, whether or not attached to walls, floors, ceilings or woodwork, or
other part of said premises. All damages to the leased premises caused by such
removal shall be repaired by and at Lessee's sole cost and expense.
The rights and remedies of each party hereunder and those provided by
law shall be construed as cumulative and no one of them is exclusive of any
other right or remedy hereunder or allowed by law, and shall be continuing
rights, none of which shall be exhausted by being exercised on one or more
occasions. Waiver of any one default shall not be considered a waiver of any
other. Each party shall be entitled in a proper case to an injunction to
enforce any part or parts of this lease, or to prevent or terminate any
violation or default.
In the event the leased premises become vacated and Lessee ceases to pay
rent, during the term of this lease, Lessor or its representatives may re-enter
said premises using such force as may be necessary therefor, without being
liable therefor, and in addition to any other remedy provided by law or by this
lease, may at its option re-let said premises on behalf of Lessee, applying any
monies collected first to the payment of expenses and fees incurred in assuming
or obtaining possession, second to the payment of rent due hereunder, and third
to the payment of any other charges due to Lessor. Any surplus shall be paid
to Lessee, and Lessee shall remain liable for any deficiency in rent and costs.
14. Parking shall be provided according to the attached Exhibit B.
15. COVENANTS OF PARTIES. Lessor covenants that Lessee upon paying the
rents and keeping the covenants of this lease, shall lawfully, peaceably and
quietly hold and enjoy the premises for the aforesaid term. Lessee covenants
that it will not commit, or suffer
6
7
to be committed, any waste of the leased premises. It is further understood
and agreed that the covenants and agreements contained herein are binding on
the parties hereto and their legal representatives, heirs and successors.
16. OPTION TO RENEW LEASE. If Lessee is not then in default under the
terms of this lease, Lessee shall have the option to renew this lease for one
five (5) year option period. Lessee shall notify Lessor of its intent to
exercise its option hereunder by written notice of such election no later than
90 days prior to the end of the initial term. The rental option period shall
be in proportion to the increase in the Department of Labor's Consumer Price
Index for Urban Wage Earners & Clerical Workers all items for all cities
Average Statistical Area on the basis of 1967 = 100%. The increase in the
Index which has occurred between the first and last month of the five year
lease term shall be the basis for the rent adjustment. Said rentals shall in
no event be less than the rental during the initial term of the lease.
17. HOLD OVER PROVISION. Should Lessee hold over the leased premises or
any part thereof after the expiration of the term of this lease, unless
otherwise agreed in writing, such holding over shall constitute a tenancy from
month to month only, and Lessee shall pay as monthly rental the then reasonable
value of the use and occupation of the leased premises, which shall not be
less, however, than the rent to be paid for the last month under this lease.
Upon expiration of this lease, thirty (30) days written notice to vacate from a
rent due date shall be required by either Lessee to Lessor, or Lessor to
Lessee, of either party's desire to have the space vacated.
Lessor and Lessee agree that if either defaults in any of the conditions
and terms of this lease, the defaulting party shall pay all costs and expenses,
including attorney fees, which may arise or accrue from enforcing this lease or
in obtaining possession of the premises or in pursuing any remedy provided by
the laws of the State of Utah whether by filing suit or otherwise.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Lessor and Lessee have hereunto respectively executed
duplicate originals of this Lease as of the day and year first above written.
