5
exercise or use of any other right or remedy provided herein or otherwise
provided by law, nor shall exercise nor use of any rights or remedy by Lessor
waive any other right or remedy.
18. FIRE AND CASUALTY. In case the Premises shall be rendered untenantable
during the term of this lease by fire or other casualty, Lessor at this option
may terminate the lease or repair the Premises within 60 days thereafter. If
Lessor elects to repair, this lease shall remain in effect provided such repairs
are completed within said time, and provided that rent for the Premises will be
presented and reduced accordingly for any period in which the Premises are
untenantable. If Lessor shall not have repaired the Premises within said time,
then at the end of such time the term hereby created shall terminate. If this
lease is terminated by reason of fire or casualty as herein specified, rent
shall be apportioned and paid to the day of such fire or casualty.
19. SUBORDINATION. This lease is subordinate to all mortgages which may now or
hereafter affect the Premises.
20. PLURALS; SUCCESSORS. The words "Lessor" and "Lessee" wherever herein
occurring and used shall be construed to mean "Lessors" and "Lessors" in case
more than one person constitutes either party to this lease; and all the
covenants and agreements contained shall be binding upon, and inure to, their
respective successors, heirs, executors, administrators and assigns and may be
exercised by his or their attorney or agent.
21. SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible each provision of this lease shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this lease shall be prohibited by or invalid under
applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision
or the remaining provisions of this lease.
