RIDER
18. Lessor will pay the real estate taxes or special assessments assessed
against the Building and adjacent land, and Lessee agrees to pay as additional
rent, a proportionate share of those taxes and assessments. Lessee's
proportionate share shall be computed on the basis that the total area of the
Premises bears to the rentable area of the Building which is 35.90%; which share
shall be prorated from the date of commencement of this lease to the date on
which the same shall terminate. Lessee's prorata share of such taxes shall be
based upon the real estate tax bills paid during a particular year even though
they relate to a prior year's tax assessment so that Lessee's payment of such
share shall commence with the 1992 real estate tax xxxx payable in 1993. This
covenant shall survive the expiration of the lease term. The entire amount of
any increase in the real estate taxes by reason of capital improvements,
non-standard or special assessments, alteration or fixtures made by or for the
benefit of Lessee shall be paid fully by the Lessee. Real estate taxes as herein
used shall include all taxes or assessments whether special or general, of any
nature whatsoever, which may be now or hereafter levied or assessed upon the
Premises or any part thereof, or upon the interest of Landlord under this Lease
or the rental therefrom. Lessor agrees to elect installment payment of all
special assessments to the extent available.
19. Lessor may obtain a policy or policies of fire and extended coverage
insurance with public liability coverage on the Building in amounts not less
than the full insurable or replacement value thereof. Lessee agrees to pay as
additional rent, his share of the cost of such insurance computed on the basis
that the total area of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the
Building. Lessee also agrees to pay the entire amount of any increase in
insurance premiums occasioned by Lessee's particular use of the Premises or its
activities. This covenant shall survive the expiration of the lease term.
20. Lessee shall pay his share of the aforesaid taxes, assessments and
insurance premiums by depositing with the agent for the beneficiaries of the
Lessor on the first day of each month during the term hereof, a sum equal to
one-twelfth (1/12) of the estimated amount of such taxes, assessments and
insurance premiums. The amount of such deposits shall be determined from time to
time by Lessor on the basis of such information it deems appropriate, including,
but not limited to, insurance premiums and tax bills adjusted for anticipated
rate or assessment increases. Lessor's determination of the amount of such
deposits shall be conclusive for all purposes. Such deposits shall be used by
the agent for the beneficiaries of the Lessor to pay the taxes and costs of
insurance when due. Said agent shall be entitled to intermingle such deposits
with its own funds and to use them for such purposes as it may determine. Lessee
shall not be entitled to any interest on such deposits. If the total deposits by
Tenant shall be insufficient to pay Lessee's share of the taxes or insurance
premiums for any year, Lessee shall promptly pay such insufficiency to the agent
when billed. If Lessee's deposits are in excess of its share, such excess shall
be remitted after the payment of the applicable tax xxxx or insurance premium.
21. Lessee shall also pay his proportionate share, computed in accordance
with paragraph 18 hereof, of any and all fees or expenses which may be incurred
by the agent for the beneficiaries of Lessor for the protesting or settling of
any real estate tax assessment, rate or xxxx pertaining to the Building.

22. Lessee agrees that all compensation awarded in any condemnation
proceedings shall be the Lessor's, and Lessee hereby assigns to Lessor all of
Lessee's right, title and interest to any such compensation, except any separate
award made to Lessee for cost and removal of his stock or fixtures.
23. The rights and interest of Lessee under this Lease shall be subject and
subordinate to any mortgage, deed of trust, ground or underlying lease, or any
method of financing or refinancing now or hereafter placed against the land
and/or the Premises, and to any and all advances to be made thereunder, and to
the interest to be paid thereon, and all extensions and modifications thereof.
24. Lessee agrees that at all times during the term hereof, he will
maintain at his sole cost and expense, comprehensive General Liability Insurance
with minimum limits in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00)
for bodily injury, personal injury or death and property damage, which insurance
shall cover Lessee's contractual liability under the indemnity provisions of
this Lease. All such policies of insurance or certificates therefor shall be
delivered to Lessor or the agent for its beneficiaries, accompanied by evidence
that the premiums thereon have been paid not less than ten (10) days prior to
the expiration of any then current policy. All such policies shall contain a
provision that such insurance may not be cancelled or amended without ten (10)
days written notice to Lessor.
25. Lessee agrees to indemnify and save Lessor, its beneficiaries, their
agents, and the Premises, harmless against and from all liabilities, liens,
claims, suits, fines, damages, penalties, losses, fees, costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorney's fees) which may be imposed upon, incurred by or
asserted by reason of: (a) any work or thing to be done in, on or about the
Premises or any part thereof; (b) any use, occupation, condition, operation of
the Premises or any part thereof, or any occurrence on the same; (c) any action
or omission on the part of lessee or any sub-lessee or any of his or their

accident, injury (including death) or damage, regardless of the cause thereof,
to any person or property incurring in, on or about the Premises or any part
thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease. The indemnity contained in this paragraph
shall not apply to any matter occasioned or resulting from the negligence of
Lessor, its beneficiaries, or their agents or employees.
26. Lessor shall be excused for the period of any delay in the performance
of any obligation hereunder including the delivery of possession as herein
provided, when prevented from so doing by cause or causes beyond Lessor's
control which shall include, without limitation, acts of other tenants, all
labor disputes, civil commotion, sabotage, governmental regulations or controls,
fire or other casualty, or inability to obtain any material, labor, services or
financing or through acts of God.
27. All of Lessee's improvements or alterations to the Premises shall be in
accordance with the requirements of applicable ordinances and must be approved
by lessor or the agent for its beneficiaries in writing prior to the
commencement of such work. All of such improvements and alterations shall remain
for the benefit of Lessor as part of the Premises and shall not be removed by
the Lessee at any time during the term of this Lease or thereafter. Any such
improvements shall at the sole election of Lessor be removed upon the expiration
of the Lease or shall remain as part of the Premises as herein provided. Lessee
shall repair, and restore and save the Lessor and the Premises harmless from all
damage to the Premises caused by such removal. Lessee, at this sole cost and
expense shall maintain and take good care of and make all necessary repairs or
replacements of any nature whatsoever to the interior and exterior of the

heating and air conditioning equipment. Lessee shall be required to furnish the

prorata basis for A/C-heating maintenance insurance coverage upon demand of

installation.
30. Lessor shall secure plate glass insurance for the Premises and Lessee
agrees to reimburse Lessor for the premium paid for said insurance on demand.
31. Lessee agrees to operate in the entire Premises during the entire term
of this Lease and to conduct his business at all times in good faith, in a high
grade and reputable manner during the regular and customary hour for such type
of business and on all business days.
32. This Lease may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an
instrument in writing signed by the Lessor. No modification, termination or
surrender of the Lease or surrender of the Premises or any part thereof or any
interest therein by Lessee shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and
accepted in writing by Lessor, and no act by any representative or agent of
Lessor or its beneficiaries other than a written agreement shall constitute
acceptance thereof.

annually from July 1, 1993 through June 30, 1995; Thirty-Five Thousand
