If thirty five per cent (35%) or more of the Premises is so taken, further provided that the taking of the portion of said Premises does materially affect the operation and conduct of Lessee’s business, then this Lease shall terminate at the election of either party upon notice to the other within thirty (30) days after the payment, or the deposit with the appropriate public officer, of the compensation awarded to Lessor, and in that event the term shall terminate on the date possession of the part condemned is taken by the condemning authority and the rent shall be paid to that date. In the event of a partial taking, rent shall equitably xxxxx as of the effective date the government takes possession and/or such possession by Lessee is lost.

In any event, the entire compensation awarded shall belong to Lessor without any deduction there from for any present or future estate or interest of Lessee, and Lessee hereby assigns to Lessor all of its right, title and interest in and to any and all such compensation together with any and all rights, estate and interest of Lessee now existing or hereafter arising in and to the same or any part thereof.
SIGNS: ARTICLE XIII.
Lessee shall have the right at its sole cost to use sign "Standards" or structures presently existing on the Premises and to erect signs identifying Lessee's business.

Lessee shall give Lessor copies of all applications, approvals and permits required for any signage. Lessee shall not use any advertising medium that shall be deemed objectionable to Lessor in its reasonable discretion.

Should any Sublease, assignment, use or occupancy be consented to, all future subleases, assignments, uses or occupancies will still require Lessor's prior written consent. In the event of any subletting, assignment, use or occupancy Lessee shall remain liable for all the terms and conditions of this Lease.
Should Lessee attempt to sublease, assign or permit the use or occupancy, by anyone other than Lessee without Lessor's written consent, such sublease, assignment, use or occupancy shall be null and void and any options granted under this Lease shall be null and void.
REMEDIES: ARTICLE XV.
Lessor may terminate Lessee's right of possession and repossess the Premises without terminating this Lease and/or terminate the estate and term demised by giving ten (10) days written notice to Lessee upon the happening of one or more of the following events which are not cured within said period:
a) the making by Lessee of an assignment for the benefit of its creditors;
b) the levying of a writ of execution or attachment on or against the property of Lessee;
c) the taking of any action for the voluntary dissolution of Lessee or of consolidation with or merger into another corporation;
d) the doing, or permitting to be done by Lessee of any act which creates a mechanic's lien or claim therefore against the Premises;
e) the failure of Lessee to pay an installment of rent when due, subject to any right of offset on the part of Lessee;
f) if proceedings are instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction for the reorganization, liquidation or involuntary dissolution of Lessee, or for its adjudication as bankrupt or insolvent, or for the appointment of a receiver of the property of Lessee, and said proceedings are not dismissed, and any receiver, trustee or liquidator appointed therein discharged within thirty days after the institution of said proceedings;
g) the recording of any document against Lessor’s title without, first receiving Lessor’s written consent;
h) the failure of Lessee to perform any other of its covenants under this Lease for thirty (30) days or more after receipt of written notice of such failure.
Lessee shall not do any act which shall in any way encumber the title of Lessor in and to the Premises, nor shall the interest or estate of Lessor in the Premises be in any way subject to any claim by way of lien or encumbrance, whether by operation of law or by virtue of any express or implied contract by Lessee. Any claim to, or lien upon, the Premises arising from any act or omission of Lessee shall accrue only against the leasehold estate of Lessee and shall be subject and subordinate to the paramount title and rights of Lessor in and to the premises. Any lien or encumbrance caused by Lessee or its agents to Lessor's title which is not removed within the notice period set forth above shall constitute a default hereunder.
Upon the termination of the estate or Lessee's right to possession, Lessor may re-enter the Premises with process of law using such force as may be necessary, and remove all persons and chattels therefrom and Lessor shall not be liable for damages or otherwise by reason of re-entry or termination of the term of the Lease. Notwithstanding such termination, the liability of Lessee for the rent provided for hereinabove shall not be extinguished for the balance of the term remaining after said termination, and Lessor shall be entitled to recover immediately as liquidated damages an amount equal to the minimum rent for the said balance of the term less the fair rental value of the Premises for the said balance of the term. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of this Lease, Lessor may, but need not, relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Lessee for such rent, for such time and upon such terms as Lessor, in Lessor's sole discretion, shall determine, and Lessee shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency along with all costs of reletting including but not limited to brokerage commissions, decorating and/or rehabilitation of the Premises. At Lessor's election, Lessor may xxx the Lessee for rent due and owing Lessor by Lessee under this Lease, as many times as is necessary to recover all rents and sums due hereunder, if the Premises are not relet or if eventually relet, for any deficiency which results by virtue of the default by Lessee and Lessor reletting the Premises for rental which is less than that which Lessee was required to pay hereunder. Lessee waives any defense of Res Judicata concerning any successive suits which are brought by Lessor pursuant to this provision unless Lessor has specifically received a judgment for the identical amount for an identical period in a previous suit of Lessor. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge and agree that all rent, common area maintenance charges and taxes, fees, expenses, penalties and/or any other sum payable hereunder or pursuant to the terms of this Lease sometimes referred to as "rent" shall be deemed rent which is due and payable as required under this Lease.
In the event of any breach by Lessee of any of the provisions of this Lease, Lessor may immediately or at any time thereafter, without additional notice, cure such breach for the account of and at the expense of Lessee such expense to constitute additional rent. If Lessor at any time, by reason of such breach, is compelled to pay any sum of money or do any act which will require the payment of any sum of money, or incurs any expense, including but not limited to reasonable attorney fees, in instituting or prosecuting any action or proceeding to enforce Lessor's rights hereunder, the sum or sums so paid by Lessor, with interest thereon at the rate set forth below from the date of payment thereof, shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and shall be due from Lessee to Lessor on the first day of the month following the payment of such respective sums or expenses by Lessor.
Subject to any right of offset on the part of Lessee, if Lessee shall fail to pay to Lessor, when due, any installment of rent or other payment due hereunder, Lessee shall pay to Lessor interest on such rent or other payment at the rate of the greater of the prime rate ("prime rate" is defined as the monthly average of the daily rate published in the Wall Street Journal [eastern edition] or if none or said publication ceases to exist the monthly average of the daily interest rate announced by the Federal Reserve Bank with jurisdiction in New York, New York being the rate charged by the Federal Reserve to the banks and generally thought of as their cost of money) established and in force by the Federal Reserve plus three percent (3%) per annum.
Lessee will, at the expiration or termination of this Lease, yield up possession to Lessor, and failing so to do, at Lessor's option Lessee will pay as liquidated damages for each day possession is withheld, an amount equal to double the amount of the daily rent, computed on a thirty day month basis; provided, however, that Lessor's right to recover such liquidated damages shall not preclude Lessor from recovering any greater amount of damages sustained by it or as otherwise allowed by law.
No receipt of money by Lessor from Lessee after breach by Lessee or after the termination of this Lease or after the service of any notice or after the commencement of any suit, or after final judgment for possession of the Premises shall operate to waive any breach or to reinstate, continue or extend the term of this Lease or affect any such notice, demand or suit.
No waiver by one party of any default of the other party under this lease or any provision hereof shall be implied from any omission by a party to take any action on account of such default if such default persists or is repeated and no express waiver shall affect any default other than the default specified in the express waiver, and that only for the time and to the extent therein stated. One or more waivers of any condition of this Lease by either party shall not be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the same covenant, term, or condition or as an amendment to this Lease’s terms, covenants and conditions.

Lessee shall also pay all damages, consequential as well as direct, sustained by Lessor by reason of such retention.

a) public liability covering the Leased Premises and the use and operation thereof in broad form with limits of not less than $1,000,000.00 combined single limit per occurrence/aggregate for each person and $2,000,000.00 for each accident or bodily injury and $500,000.00 for property damage.
b) xxxxxxx’x compensation in accordance with statutorily required limits.
c) fire and extended coverage insurance covering Lessee’s fixtures, personal property and contents of Lessee located in the Leased Premises in an amount equal to the 100% replacement cost of such property.
d) if directed by Lessor fire and extended coverage insurance covering the building in the Leased Premises against loss from the risks normally covered by a policy with fire and extended coverage, loss or damage by boiler or internal explosion by boiler equal to one hundred percent (100%) of its replacement cost under Standard Fire and Extended Coverage Policy and all other risks of direct physical loss as insured against under Special Form (“all risk”) coverage. Such insurance shall be primary to and non-contributing to any insurance carried by Lessor. Endorsements for inflation and ordinance changes shall be included with such coverage. Loss by explosion will be covered. Loss of rents for up to one year will be provided to Lessor. Lessor may procure this coverage and have Lessee pay 100% of the cost thereof if Lessor does not request Lessee to procure this coverage. Where Lessor Permits Lessee to procure such coverage Lessor shall be a named insured.
If at any time during the term of this Lease, Lessee owns or rents more than one location, the policy shall contain an endorsement to the effect that the aggregate limit in the policy shall apply separately to each location owned or rented by Lessee. Lessee shall cause its liability insurance to include contractual liability coverage fully covering the indemnity hereinabove set forth. All of the aforesaid insurance shall be in responsible companies and written on an “occurrence” basis and not on a “claims made” basis.
Lessee at its sole cost and expense agrees to furnish certificates evidencing the insurance Lessee is required to procure and deliver them to Lessor without delay. Certificates for the renewal of such insurance shall be delivered by Lessee to Lessor at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective expiration dates.
Lessor, Lessor’s agent, and mortgagee (if the name of any such mortgagee is provided to Lessee) shall be named as an additional insured on the above mentioned policies called for in paragraph a and c of this article. Any insurance required hereunder shall not be subject to cancellation except after 30 days prior written notice to Lessor.
Lessee shall not do anything which will in any way impair the obligation of any policy of insurance covering the Leased Premises or any part thereof nor shall Lessee take any action either by omission or commission which directly or indirectly causes the insurance costs to materially increase, and should Lessee take such action it shall be solely responsible for any and all excess or extraordinary premium or cost resulting therefrom.
Lessee shall cause each insurance policy carried to be written in a manner so as to provide that the insurance company waives all right of recovery by way of subrogation in connection with any loss or damage covered by any such policies. Neither party shall be liable to the other for any loss or damage caused by fire or any of the risks enumerated in the standard extended coverage insurance to the extent same is covered by insurance which actually pays the entire claim in question.
Companies having an A.M. Bests’ or Standard and Poors rating of A+ or better will be utilized. A certificate of insurance evidencing coverage is in place without disclaimer that such certificate is not evidence of in force coverage shall be furnished to Lessor prior to the Commencement Date and thereafter a current certificate of insurance evidencing coverage is in place without disclaimer that such certificate is not evidence of in force coverage shall be deposited with Lessor.
Lessee shall maintain at Lessee’s own cost and expense, for the benefit of Lessee, its agents, employees and contractors, and Lessor, its beneficiaries, agents, employees contractors and mortgagee the insurance called for herein.
