expense, including but not limited to, penalties, fines, attorneys' fees or
costs (collectively "claims"), to any person, property or entity resulting from
the following: (i) the negligence or wilful misconduct of Tenant, its agents,
employees or contractors; (ii) Tenant's default or breach of any of the terms
and conditions of this Lease; and (iii) any occurrences within the Premises, not

claim is covered by such insurance, even if resulting from the negligent acts,
omissions or misconduct of Tenant or those of its agents, employees or
contractors. Similarly, since Tenant must carry insurance to cover its personal
property within the premises, and because of the waivers of subrogation set
forth in this Lease, Tenant hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Landlord
harmless from any claims to the extent any such claim is covered by such
insurance, if resulting from the negligent acts, omissions or misconduct of
Landlord or those of its agents, employees or contractors. The provisions of
this section shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease
with respect to any occurrences, claims or liabilities occurring prior to such
expiration or termination.
