such period or periods as LESSOR in its sole discretion
shall determine. LESSOR may make repairs to the premises as

acceptance of such liquidated damages by LESSOR shall
constitute a waiver of LESSOR'S right to reenter the demised
premises or terminate this Lease as herein provided, nor
shall any other act or omission to act in apparent
affirmance of the tenancy operate as a waiver of the right
to terminate this Lease or any renewal thereof or of any

provided by law.
