expenses in doing so. If the Indemnitor determines that it shall defend such
action or proceeding, the Indemnitor shall defend such action or proceeding at
its expense, using counsel selected by any insurance company insuring against
any such claim and undertaking to defend such claim, or by other counsel
selected by the Indemnitor and approved by the Indemnitee, which approval shall

shall consult with the Indemnitee prior to settlement of any indemnified
matter. In the event the Indemnitee has a claim or claims against any third
party growing out of or connected with the indemnified matter, then upon
receipt of indemnification, the Indemnitee shall fully assign to the Indemnitor
the entire claim or claims and the Indemnitor shall thereupon be subrogated with
respect to such claim or claims of the Indemnitee. The parties hereto
acknowledge and agree that the terms and conditions of this Section 12.B. shall
not alter, negate or otherwise affect the terms and conditions of any
applicable insurance policy.
C. Limitations on Indemnification. Seller's indemnification
obligations under this Agreement shall be limited to losses, damages, costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) actually incurred by Buyer
which exceed $1,000 in amount for any single event giving rise to such liability
("Material Losses"), and which when aggregated with other Material Losses,

account therefor, and (c) interest at 2% per week from the date of each
obligation until paid; all of which sums and the interest thereon constitute
Rent accruing hereunder. Interest shall only accrue commencing ten (10) days
after Lessee's receipt of written notice to that effect from Lessor.
2. LESSOR'S TITLE: Lessor's title is and always shall be paramount to the title
of Lessee; and nothing herein contained shall empower Lessee to do any act
which can, shall or may encumber the title of Lessor.
3. CERTAIN RIGHTS RESERVED TO THE LESSOR: The Lessor reserves the following
rights: (a) during the last ninety days of the term or any part thereof, if
during or prior to that time the Lessee vacates the premises, to decorate,
remodel, repair, alter or otherwise prepare the premises for reoccupancy; (b)
during the 60 days prior to the termination of this Lease and upon at least 24
hours prior notice, to exhibit the premises to others and to display "For Rent"
signs on the premises; (c) to take any and all measures, including inspections,
repairs, alterations, additions, and improvements to the premises or to the
Building, as may be necessary or desirable for the safety, protection or
preservation of the premises or the Building or the Lessor's interest, or as may
be necessary or desirable in the operation of the Building.
The Lessor may after giving Lessee at least 24 hours prior notice, enter
upon the premises and may exercise any and all of the foregoing rights hereby
reserved without being deemed guilty of an eviction or disturbance of the
Lessee's possession and without being liable in any manner to the Lessee.
4. WAIVER OF CLAIMS: To the extent permitted by law, the Lessee releases the
Lessor and the Lessor's agents and servants from and waives all claims for
damage to person or property sustained by the Lessee or any occupant of the
Building or premises resulting from the Building or premises or any part of
either or any equipment or appurtenance becoming out of repair, or resulting
from any accident in or about the Building, or resulting directly or indirectly
from any act or neglect of any tenant or occupant of the Building or of any
other person, including the Lessor's agents and servants. This Section 4 shall
apply especially, but not exclusively, to broken glass, sewage, gas, odors or
noise, or the bursting or leaking of pipes or plumbing fixtures, and shall
apply equally whether any such damage results from the act or neglect of the
Lessee or of other tenants, occupants or servants in the Building or of any
other person, and whether such damage be caused or result from any thing or
circumstances above mentioned or referred to, or any other circumstances
whether of a like nature or of a wholly different nature. If any such damage,
whether to the demised premises or to the Building or any part thereof, or
whether to the Lessor or to other tenants in the Building, result from any act
or neglect of the Lessee, the Lessor may, at the Lessor's option repair such
damage and the Lessee shall, upon demand by the Lessor, reimburse the Lessor
forthwith for the total cost of such repairs. Any other provision of this Lease
notwithstanding, Lessee does not waive its claims against Lessor, if said
claims arise out of Lessor's breach of or failure to perform an obligation
under this Lease.
The Lessee shall not be liable for any damages caused by its act or neglect
if the Lessor or a tenant has recovered the full amount of the damages from
insurance and the insurance company has waived in writing its right of
subrogation against the Lessee. All property belonging to the Lessee or any
occupant of the premises that is in the Building or the premises shall be there
at the risk of the Lessee or other person only and the Lessor shall not be
liable for damage thereto or theft or misappropriation thereof.
5. HOLDING OVER: If the Lessee retains possession of the premises or any part
thereof after the termination of the term by lapse of time or otherwise, and
provide that not less than 30 days have expired from Lessee's receipt of
written notice from the provision of paragraph 5 will be enforced, then the
Lessee shall pay the Lessor rent at double the rate specified in Section 1 for
the time the Lessee remains in possession, and in addition thereto, shall pay
the Lessor all damages sustained by reason of the Lessee's retention of
possession. If the Lessee remains in possession of the premises or any part
thereof, after the termination of the term by lapse of time or otherwise, such
holding over shall, at the election of the Lessor expressed in a written notice
to the Lessee and not otherwise, constitute a renewal of this lease for one
year [the same as stated in paragraph 1] at a rental rate equal to ten percent
(10%) over the current rental rate per year. The provisions of this Section do
not waive the Lessor's rights of reentry or any other right hereunder.
6. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING: Lessee shall not (a) assign or convey this lease
or any interest under it; (b) allow any transfer hereof or any lien upon
Lessee's interest by operation of law; (c) sublet the premises or any part
thereof, or (d) permit the use or occupancy of the premises or any part thereof
by any one other than Lessee, except that the Lessee may sublease after
obtaining the approval of the Lessor in writing, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Lessor acknowledges that a portion of Lessor's business
includes providing certain customers on a fee basis with space and equipment
so that said customer can carry on a portion of their respective business
operations. Any other provisions of this Lease notwithstanding, including the
provisions regarding Lessee's obligation relating to the assignment or
subleasing of all or a portion of the premises. Lessor agrees such use of the
premised is permitted without Lessor's further consent.
7. CONDITION OF PREMISES: Lessee's taking possession shall be conclusive
evidence as against Lessee that the premises were in good order and satisfactory
condition when Lessee took possession. No promise of Lessor to alter, remodel
or improve the premises of the Building and no representation respecting the
condition of the premises or the Building have been made by Lessor to Lessee,
unless the same is contained herein or made a part thereof. At the termination
of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise, Lessee shall return the premises
46
(a) If any voluntary or involuntary petition or similar pleading under any
section or sections of any of any bankruptcy act shall be filed by or against
the Lessee, or any voluntary proceedings in any court or tribunal shall be
instituted to declare the Lessee insolvent or unable to pay the Lessee's debts,
and in the case of an involuntary petition or proceeding, the petition or
proceeding is not dismissed within twenty days from the date it is filed, the
Lessor may elect, but is not required, and with or without notice of such
election, and, with or without entry or other action by the Lessor, to
forthwith terminate this lease, and, notwithstanding any other provision of
this lease, the Lessor shall forthwith upon such termination be entitled to
recover damages in an amount equal to the then present value of the rent
specified in Section 1 of this lease for the residue of the stated term hereof,
less the fair rental value of the premises for the residue of the stated term.
(b) If the Lessee defaults in the payment of rent, and the Lessee does not
cure the default within ten days after demand for payment of such rent, or if
the Lessee defaults in the prompt and full performance of any other provision
of this lease, and the Lessee does not cure the default within ten days
(forthwith if the default involves a hazardous condition) after written demand
by the Lessor that the default be cured unless the default involves a hazardous
condition which shall be cured forthwith upon the Lessor's demand, or if the
leasehold interest of the Lessee be levied upon under execution or be attached
by process of law, which is not released within 30 days or if the Lessee makes
an assignment for the benefit of creditors, which is not released within 30
days or if a receiver be appointed for any property of the Lessee, which is not
released within 30 days or if the Lessee abandons the premises, then and in any
such event the Lessor may, if the Lessor so elects but not otherwise, and with
or without notice of such election and with or without demand whatsoever,
either forthwith terminate this lease and the Lessee's right to possession of
the premises or, without terminating this lease, forthwith terminate the
Lessee's right to possession of the premises.
(c) Upon any termination of this lease, whether by lapse of time or
otherwise, or upon any termination of the Lessee's right to possession with
termination of the lease, the Lessee shall surrender possession and vacate
premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to the Lessor, and hereby
grants to the Lessor full and free license to enter into and upon the premises
in such event with or without process of law and to repossess the Lessee of the
premises as of the Lessor's former estate and to expel or remove the Lessee and
any other who may be occupying or within the premises and to remove any and all
property therefrom, using such forces as may be necessary without being deemed
in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry or detainer, and
without relinquishing the Lessor's rights to rent or any other right given to
the Lessor hereunder or by operation of Law.
(d) if Lessee abandons the premises or otherwise entitles Lessor so to
elect, and Lessor elects, to terminate Lessee's right to possession only,
without terminating the lease, Lessor may at Lessor's option enter into the
premises, remove Lessee's signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and
hold possession thereof as in Paragraph (c) of this Section provided, without
such entry and possession terminating the lease or releasing Lessee, in whole
or in part, from Lessee's obligation to pay the rent hereunder for the full
term, and in any such case Lessee shall pay forthwith to Lessor a sum equal to
the entire amount of the rent reserved under provision (a) of Section 1 of this
lease for the residue of the stated term plus any other sums then due
hereunder. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of the
lease, Lessor may, but need not, relet the premises or any part thereof for the
account of Lessee to any person, firm or corporation other than Lessee for such
rent, for such time and upon such terms as Lessor in Lessor's sole discretion
shall determine; and Lessor shall not be required to accept any tenant offered
by Lessee or to observe any instructions given by Lessee about such reletting.
In any case, Lessor may make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the
premises, and to redecorate the same to the extent deemed by Lessor necessary
or desirable, and Lessee shall, upon demand pay the cost thereof together with
Lessor's expenses of the reletting. If the consideration collected by Lessor
upon any such reletting for Lessee's account is not sufficient to pay monthly
the full amount of the rent reserved in this lease, together with the cost of
repairs, alterations, additions, redecorating and Lessor's expenses. Lessee
shall pay to Lessor the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand; and if
the consideration so collected from any such reletting is more than sufficient
to pay the full amount of the rent reserved herein, together with the costs and
expenses of Lessor. Lessor at the end of the stated term of the lease, shall
account for the surplus of Lessee.
(e) Any and all property which may be removed from the premises by the
Lessor pursuant to the authority of the Lease or of law, to which the Lessee is
or may be entitled, may be handled, removed or stored by the Lessor at the
risk, cost and expense of the Lessee and the Lessor shall in no event be
responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. The Lessee
shall pay to the Lessor, upon demand any and all expenses incurred in such
removal and all storage charges against such property so long as the same shall
be in the Lessor's possession or under Lessor's control. Any such property of
the Lessee not removed from the premises or retaken from storage by the Lessee
within thirty days after the end of the term, however, terminated, shall be
presumed to have been conveyed by the Lessee to the Lessor under this lease as
xxxx of sale without further payment by the Lessor to the Lessee.
(f) Lessee shall pay upon demand all Lessor's costs, charges and expenses,
including the fees of counsel, agents and others retained by Lessor, incurred
in enforcing Lessee's obligations hereunder or incurred by Lessor in any
litigation, negotiation or transaction in which Lessee causes Lessor, without
Lessor's fault, to become involved or concerned.
15. NOTICES: In every instance where it shall be necessary or desirable for the
Lessor to serve any notice or demand upon the Lessee, it shall be sufficient (a)
to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lessee a written or printed copy
thereof, or (b) to send a written or printed copy thereof by United States
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Lessee at the
demised premises, in which event the notice or demand shall be deemed to have
been served at the time the copy is posted, or (c) to leave written or printed
copy thereof with some person above the age of ten years in possession of the
demised premises or to affix the same upon any door leading into the demised
premises, in which event the notice or demand shall be deemed to have been
served at the time the copy is so left or affixed. All notices or demands shall
be signed by or on behalf of the Lessor. Notices to be served upon Lessor by
Lessee shall be in writing, sent by Registered Mail. Return Receipt Requested,
through the U.S. Mail in an envelope properly stamped, sealed to Lessor, c/o
0000 X. Xxxxxxx Xxxx. Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, or other name
or address which Lessor may in writing from time to time notify Lessee.
16. MISCELLANEOUS: (a) No receipt of money by Lessor from Lessee after the
termination of this lease or after the commencement of any suit or after final
judgement for possession of the premises shall reinstate, continue or extend
the term of this lease or affect any such notice, demand or suit.
(b) No Waiver or any default of Lessee hereunder shall be implied from any
omission by Lessor to take any action on account of such default if such
default persists or be 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 herein stated. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision of this lease shall not affect or impair any other provision.
(c) In the absence of fraud, no person, firm or corporation, or the heirs,
legal representatives, successors and assigns, respectively, thereof, executing
this issue as agent, trustee, or in any other representative capacity shall ever
be deemed to be held individually liable hereunder for any reason or cause
whatsoever.
(d) The words "Lessor" and "Lessee" wherever in this lease shall be
construed to mean Lessors and Lessees in all cases where there is more than one
Lessor or Lessee, and the necessary grammatical changes required to make the
provisions hereof apply either to corporations or individuals, men or women,
shall in all cases be assumed as though in each case fully expressed.
(c) Provisions inserted herein or affixed hereto shall not be valid unless
appearing in the duplicate original hereof held by Lessor, in the event of
variation or discrepancy, Lessor's duplicate shall control.
(f) Each provision hereof shall extend to and shall, as the case may
require, bind and insure to the benefit of Lessor and Lessee and their
respective heirs, legal representatives and successors, and assigns in the
event this has been assigned with the express written consent of Lessor.
(g) Submission of this instrument for examination does not constitute a
reservation of or option for the premises. The instrument becomes effective as
a lease upon execution and delivery by both Lessor and Lessee.
(h) Provisions typed on the back of this lease signed by Lessor and Lessee
and all riders attached to this lease and signed by Lessor and
47
may or shall as the case may be, remove any floor covering laid by Lessee,
provided (a) Lessee also removes all nails, tacks, paper, glue, bases and other
vestiges of the floor covering and restores the floor surface to the condition
existing before such floor covering was laid, or (b) Lessee pays to Lessor, upon
request, the cost of restoring the floor surface to such condition. If Lessee
does not remove Lessee's floor coverings, Venetian blinds, and other like
equipment from the premises prior to the end of the term, Lessee shall be
conclusively presumed to have abandoned the same and title thereto shall
thereby pass to Lessor without payment or credit by Lessor to Lessee.
8. ALTERATIONS: as consented to by Lessor shall be permitted to remain with
premises without removal at end if Lease terms. Lessee shall not make any
alterations in or additions to the premises without the Lessor's advance
written consent in each and every instance. The Lessor's decision to refuse
such consent shall be conclusive, but not unreasonably withheld. If Lessor
consents to such alterations or additions before commencement of the work or
delivery of any materials on the premises or into the Building, Lessee shall
furnish Lessor with plans and specifications, names and addresses of
contractors, copies of contracts, necessary permits and indemnification in form
and amount satisfactory to Lessor and waivers of lien against any and all
claim, costs, damages, liabilities, and expenses which may arise in connection
with the alterations or additions. Whether Lessee furnishes Lessor the
foregoing or not, Lessee hereby agrees to hold Lessor harmless from and all
liabilities of every kind and description which may arise of or to be connected
in any way with said alterations or additions. Before commencing any work in
connection with alterations or additions, Lessee shall furnish Lessor with
certificates of insurance from all contractors performing labor or furnishing
materials insuring Lessor against any and all liabilities which may arise of or
be connected in any way with said additions or alterations. Lessor's decision
to refuse to consent to Lessee's making alterations in or additions to the
premises shall be conclusive, but not unreasonably withheld. Upon completing
any alterations or additions, Lessee shall furnish Lessor with contractor's
affidavits and full and final waivers of lien and receipted bills covering all
labor and materials expended and used. All alterations and additions shall
comply with all insurance requirements and with all ordinances and regulations.
All alterations and additions shall be constructed in good and workmanlike
manner and only good grades of materials shall be used. Lessee shall permit
Lessor to inspect construction operations in connection with alterations and
additions if Lessor requests to do so, but not unreasonably delay or alter
acceptable methods or materials per trade. All additions, hardware, non-trade
fixtures and all improvements, temporary, or permanent, in or upon the
premises, whether placed there by Lessee or Lessor, shall, unless Lessor
requests their removal, become Lessor's property and shall remain upon the
premises at the termination of this lease. If Lessee does not remove Lessee's
furniture, machinery, trade fixtures and all other forms of personal property
of every kind or description from the premises within 10 days from final
occupancy date and Lessee's receipt of written notice from Lessor of its intent
to exercise its rights under this paragraph, whichever last occurs, however
ended, Lessee shall be conclusively presumed to have conveyed the same to
Lessor under this lease as a xxxx of sale without further payment or credit by
Lessor or Lessee.

the term for the purpose above specified and none other. (b) Unless specifically

advertisements and notices.
At the request of Lessor, Lessee shall remove any and all signs, pictures,
advertisements and notices which Lessor shall consider objectionable or
injurious to the Building or premises, Lessor hereby agrees to install at
Lessor's expense, a sign bearing the name of his firm, made of plastic letters
or similar material, on the glass of the door, or on the glass panel above the
entryway in a manner satisfactory to Lessor. Lessee further agrees that upon
the termination of this lease he will remove this sign and restore the glass to
its former condition. (e) The Lessee shall not advertise the business,
profession or activities of the Lessee conducted in the Building in any manner

tending to injure the reputation of the Building. (i) Lessee shall keep the
inside of all windows of the premises clean. (j) The Lessee shall not place or

fixtures and all other damages caused by low temperature, including both damage
to Lessor and to any other tenant of the Building.
10. REPAIRS: Lessee shall, at Lessee's own expense, keep the premises in good
order, condition and repair during the term, including the replacement of all
broken glass, no matter how the same may be broken, with glass of the same size

Lessor. If Lessee does not make repairs promptly and adequately, Lessor may,
but need not, make repairs and Lessee shall upon Lessor's demand, pay the cost
thereof. At any time or times, Lessor either voluntarily or pursuant to
governmental requirement, may at the Lessor's own expense, make repairs,
alterations or improvements in or to the Building or any part thereof,
including the premises, and, during operations may close entrances, doors, all

annoyance. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any expense, injury, loss
or damage resulting from work done in or upon, or the use of, any adjacent or
nearby building, land, street or alley. The Lessee shall pay the Lessor for

decorating or other work in the premises are not made during ordinary business
hours at the Lessee's request. Lessee shall comply with the requirements and
recommendations of Fire Department and Building Department.

increase the premium cost of or future policy of insurance carried on the
Building or covering its operation or carried on the premises or any part or
appurtenance thereof or which may increase the premium cost of or invalidate
any present or future policy of insurance carried by any other tenant of the
Building. Lessee agrees to comply with any and all recommendations of any
insurance company or companies concerning the changes in Lessee's use of the
premises which will avoid invalidating or increasing the premium cost of any
policy of insurance written by such company or companies. If the installation
of equipment or devices for health or safety is required to avoid invalidating
or increasing the premium cost of any policy of insurance, Lessor may install
the same in the premises or elsewhere and Lessee shall pay the cost thereof to
Lessor upon demand. Lessee shall, upon demand, pay to Lessor or to any tenant
of the Building as the case may be, the increased premium cost of any policy of
insurance and any all other damages resulting from Lessee's act or neglect in
violation of this section.

the Building or covering its operations.

this lease with Lessor's consent, all the provisions of this lease shall be in
full force and effect as soon as Lessee occupies the premises.

be fixed by agreement between the Lessor and the Lessee
48
(a) If any voluntary or involuntary petition or similar pleading under any
section or sections of any of any bankruptcy act shall be filed by or against
the Lessee, or any voluntary proceedings in any court or tribunal shall be
instituted to declare the Lessee insolvent or unable to pay the Lessee's debts,
and in the case of an involuntary petition or proceeding, the petition or
proceeding is not dismissed within twenty days from the date it is filed, the
Lessor may elect, but is not required, and with or without notice of such
election, and, with or without entry or other action by the Lessor, to
forthwith terminate this lease, and, notwithstanding any other provision of
this lease, the Lessor shall forthwith upon such termination be entitled to
recover damages in an amount equal to the then present value of the rent
specified in Section 1 of this lease for the residue of the stated term hereof,
less the fair rental value of the premises for the residue of the stated term.
(b) If the Lessee defaults in the payment of rent, and the Lessee does not
cure the default within ten days after demand for payment of such rent, or if
the Lessee defaults in the prompt and full performance of any other provision
of this lease, and the Lessee does not cure the default within ten days
(forthwith if the default involves a hazardous condition) after written demand
by the Lessor that the default be cured unless the default involves a hazardous
condition which shall be cured forthwith upon the Lessor's demand, or if the
leasehold interest of the Lessee be levied upon under execution or be attached
by process of law, which is not released within 30 days or if the Lessee makes
an assignment for the benefit of creditors, which is not released within 30
days or if a receiver be appointed for any property of the Lessee, which is not
released within 30 days or if the Lessee abandons the premises, then and in any
such event the Lessor may, if the Lessor so elects but not otherwise, and with
or without notice of such election and with or without demand whatsoever,
either forthwith terminate this lease and the Lessee's right to possession of
the premises or, without terminating this lease, forthwith terminate the
Lessee's right to possession of the premises.
(c) Upon any termination of this lease, whether by lapse of time or
otherwise, or upon any termination of the Lessee's right to possession with
termination of the lease, the Lessee shall surrender possession and vacate
premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to the Lessor, and hereby
grants to the Lessor full and free license to enter into and upon the premises
in such event with or without process of law and to repossess the Lessee of the
premises as of the Lessor's former estate and to expel or remove the Lessee and
any other who may be occupying or within the premises and to remove any and all
property therefrom, using such forces as may be necessary without being deemed
in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry or detainer, and
without relinquishing the Lessor's rights to rent or any other right given to
the Lessor hereunder or by operation of Law.
(d) if Lessee abandons the premises or otherwise entitles Lessor so to
elect, and Lessor elects, to terminate Lessee's right to possession only,
without terminating the lease, Lessor may at Lessor's option enter into the
premises, remove Lessee's signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and
hold possession thereof as in Paragraph (c) of this Section provided, without
such entry and possession terminating the lease or releasing Lessee, in whole
or in part, from Lessee's obligation to pay the rent hereunder for the full
term, and in any such case Lessee shall pay forthwith to Lessor a sum equal to
the entire amount of the rent reserved under provision (a) of Section 1 of this
lease for the residue of the stated term plus any other sums then due
hereunder. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of the
lease, Lessor may, but need not, relet the premises or any part thereof for the
account of Lessee to any person, firm or corporation other than Lessee for such
rent, for such time and upon such terms as Lessor in Lessor's sole discretion
shall determine; and Lessor shall not be required to accept any tenant offered
by Lessee or to observe any instructions given by Lessee about such reletting.
In any case, Lessor may make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the
premises, and to redecorate the same to the extent deemed by Lessor necessary
or desirable, and Lessee shall, upon demand pay the cost thereof together with
Lessor's expenses of the reletting. If the consideration collected by Lessor
upon any such reletting for Lessee's account is not sufficient to pay monthly
the full amount of the rent reserved in this lease, together with the cost of
repairs, alterations, additions, redecorating and Lessor's expenses. Lessee
shall pay to Lessor the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand; and if
the consideration so collected from any such reletting is more than sufficient
to pay the full amount of the rent reserved herein, together with the costs and
expenses of Lessor. Lessor at the end of the stated term of the lease, shall
account for the surplus of Lessee.
(e) Any and all property which may be removed from the premises by the
Lessor pursuant to the authority of the Lease or of law, to which the Lessee is
or may be entitled, may be handled, removed or stored by the Lessor at the
risk, cost and expense of the Lessee and the Lessor shall in no event be
responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. The Lessee
shall pay to the Lessor, upon demand any and all expenses incurred in such
removal and all storage charges against such property so long as the same shall
be in the Lessor's possession or under Lessor's control. Any such property of
the Lessee not removed from the premises or retaken from storage by the Lessee
within thirty days after the end of the term, however, terminated, shall be
presumed to have been conveyed by the Lessee to the Lessor under this lease as
xxxx of sale without further payment by the Lessor to the Lessee.
(f) Lessee shall pay upon demand all Lessor's costs, charges and expenses,
including the fees of counsel, agents and others retained by Lessor, incurred
in enforcing Lessee's obligations hereunder or incurred by Lessor in any
litigation, negotiation or transaction in which Lessee causes Lessor, without
Lessor's fault, to become involved or concerned.

Lessor to serve any notice or demand upon the Lessee, it shall be sufficient (a)
to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lessee a written or printed copy
thereof, or (b) to send a written or printed copy thereof by United States

demised premises or to affix the same upon any door leading into the demised
premises, in which event the notice or demand shall be deemed to have been

termination of this lease or after the commencement of any suit or after final
judgement for possession of the premises shall reinstate, continue or extend
the term of this lease or affect any such notice, demand or suit.
(b) No Waiver or any default of Lessee hereunder shall be implied from any
omission by Lessor to take any action on account of such default if such
default persists or be 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 herein stated. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision of this lease shall not affect or impair any other provision.

legal representatives, successors and assigns, respectively, thereof, executing
this issue as agent, trustee, or in any other representative capacity shall ever
be deemed to be held individually liable hereunder for any reason or cause
whatsoever.
(d) The words "Lessor" and "Lessee" wherever in this lease shall be
construed to mean Lessors and Lessees in all cases where there is more than one
Lessor or Lessee, and the necessary grammatical changes required to make the
provisions hereof apply either to corporations or individuals, men or women,
shall in all cases be assumed as though in each case fully expressed.
(c) Provisions inserted herein or affixed hereto shall not be valid unless
appearing in the duplicate original hereof held by Lessor, in the event of
variation or discrepancy, Lessor's duplicate shall control.
(f) Each provision hereof shall extend to and shall, as the case may
require, bind and insure to the benefit of Lessor and Lessee and their
respective heirs, legal representatives and successors, and assigns in the
event this has been assigned with the express written consent of Lessor.
(g) Submission of this instrument for examination does not constitute a
reservation of or option for the premises. The instrument becomes effective as
a lease upon execution and delivery by both Lessor and Lessee.

and all riders attached to this lease and signed by Lessor and
49
The cost of such services, utilities, maintenance and repair shall be billed
directly to Lessee by the company furnishing the same. Should Lessee fail to
pay all or any part of any such billing Lessor may, at its sole option at
anytime after the same becomes due and owing, pay said billing and the amount
thereof shall be deemed so much additional rental due and owing with the next
rental installment due hereunder or upon demand. In no event shall Lessor be
liable to Lessee for any damage whatsoever by reason of any interruption of any
services aforedescribed for whatsoever reason or cause, nor shall upon
interruption by deemed and eviction or disturbance of Lessee's use and
possession of the premises nor relieve Lessee from performance of any of its
obligations under this lease.
18. Lessee, its employees, agents and invitees, shall have the non-exclusive
right to use in common with Lessor, its agents, employees and invitees, the
Lessees of other premises within the building, their agents, servants,
employees and invitees, and all other persons authorized by Lessor or the
agents of Lessor, any driveways or parking areas which from time to time may be
upon the land upon which the Building is located and be so designed and made
available for such use by Lessor. The use of such driveways and parking areas
shall at all times conform with any and all rules and regulations relative
thereto that Lessor may from time to time establish. Further nothing shall be
done by Lessee, its employees, agents or invitees to obstruct to interfere
with the use of said driveways, parking areas by other authorized persons or
vehicles. Such co-extensive use by Lessee, its employees, agents and invitees
shall automatically cease upon the termination of expiration of this lease or
the Lessee's right to possession of the premises.
Lessee agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lessor, its agents, servants
and employees, from and against claims for loss or damage of whatsoever nature
and howsoever caused resulting from the use of said driveways and parking areas
by Lessee, its employees, agents, licenses or invitees. Lessee expressly waives
and releases Lessor, its employees, servants and agents from any and all
liability for any loss, damage, injury or claim therefor of whatsoever kind of
nature and howsoever caused, resulting or alleged to have resulted from the use
of the aforesaid driveways or parking areas by any person or persons whose use
thereof was authorized or unauthorized, or by reason of the condition,
maintenance or state of repair of said driveways and parking areas from any
failure or delay in keeping the same in good condition or repair.
19. Any and all references to the Building shall be deemed to also include the
land upon any part of which the Building is situated, including but not limited
to the driveways and parking areas thereon to which co-extensive use has been
granted Lessee hereunder. The provision of Paragraph 10 hereof that Lessor
shall not be liable to Lessee for any expense, injury, loss or damage resulting
from work done in or upon, or the use of, any adjacent or nearby building,
land, street or alley shall be equally applicable to work done in or upon the
use of the Building or land aforedescribed or any part of either.
However, if the untenantability was a result of the negligence of Lessee, its
servants, agents or employees, or of the operation of Lessee's business or its
use of the premises, then Lessee shall not have the right of termination
aforeprovided.
If the lease is terminated as above provided, rental shall be prorated on
a per diem basis to the effective date of the termination. In no event shall
any such termination relieve a party of any liability theretofore accrued or
which by the terms of this lease, shall continue after termination. If the said
Lease is not terminated within the time and in the manner aforedescribed, the
repairs and restoration shall be completed as soon as is reasonably possible
thereafter.
20. EMINENT DOMAIN: If any part of the Building or the land upon which the
Building stands shall be taken or condemned by any competent authority for any
public use or purpose. If such part of the Building or land so taken or
condemned includes all of the premises, the term of this lease shall end upon
and not before the date when possession of the part so taken shall be required
for such use or purpose, and without apportionment of the award. Current rent
shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination.
If any condemnation proceeding shall be instituted in which it is sought
to take or damage any part of the Building or the land on which the Building
stands, Lessor shall have the right to cancel this lease upon not less than
ninety (90) days notice prior to the date of cancellation designated in the
notice. No money or other consideration, other than the consideration provided
by this lease shall be payable by Lessor to Lessee for any election to cancel
as provided in this paragraph and Lessee shall have no right to share in the
condemnation award whether or not Lessor elects to exercise any right to cancel
said lease as aforedescribed or whether or not said lease is so canceled and
terminated. Nothing contained herein shall preclude Lessee from seeking an
award from the condemning authority for loss of its business, the value of any
trade fixtures or personal property of Lessee in the Building or moving
expenses.
21. Lessee covenants and agrees that it will protect, save and keep Lessor
forever harmless and indemnified against and from any penalty, damage, or
charges imposed for any violation of any laws or ordinances, whether occasioned
by Lessee's neglect or those holding under Lessee, and the Lessee will at all
times protect, indemnify, save and keep harmless Lessor against and from any
and all claims, loss, cost, damage, or expense arising out of or from any
accident or other occurrence on or about the demised premises or out of or from
the use of any of the driveways or parking areas by Lessee, its agents,
servants or invitees, or which are claimed to be directly or indirectly the
result of all or any part of the premises or structure thereon, or appurtenances
or equipment thereof, or by reason of the condition, maintenance, use or
operation of any of the foregoing, or the conduct of any business in or upon
said Premises, causing injury to any person whomsoever, including but not
limited to agents and employees of the Lessee or to any property whatsoever,
including but not limited to any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of
the loss of use of any property, real or personal. Lessee further covenants and
agrees that it will protect, indemnify, save and keep harmless the Lessor
against and from any and all claims against and from any loss, cost, damage or
expense arising out of any failure of Lessee in any respect to comply with and
perform all of the requirements and provisions thereof.
22. The rights and interest of Lessee under this lease shall be subject and
subordinate to any mortgage or trust deed that may be placed upon the Leased
Premises and to any and all advances to be made thereunder, and to the interest
thereon, and all renewals, replacements and extensions thereof, if the
mortgagee or trustee named in the rights and interest of Lessee under this
lease to the lien of its mortgage or deed of trust and shall agree to recognize
this Lease of Lessee in the event of foreclosure if Lessee is not in default.
Any mortgagee or trustee may elect to give the rights and interest of Lessee
under this lease priority over the lien of its mortgage or deed of trust. In
the event of either such election and upon notification by such mortgagee or
trustee to Lessee to that effect the rights and interest of Lessee under this
lease shall be deemed to be subordinated to, or to have priority over, as the
case may be, the lien of said mortgage or trust deed, whether this lease is
dated prior to or subsequent to the date of said mortgage or trust deed.
Lessee shall execute and deliver whatever instruments may be required for such
purposes, and in the event Lessee fails to do so within ten (10) days after
demand in writing, Lessee does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint
Lessor as its attorney in fact and in its name, place, and stead so to do.
23. If any mortgagee or committed financier of Lessor should require, as a
condition precedent to the closing of any loan or the disbursal of any money
under the loan, that this Lease be amended or supplemented in any manner.
Lessor shall give written notice thereto to Lessee, which notice shall be
accompanied by a Lease Supplement agreement embodying such amendments and
supplements. Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days after the effective date of
Lessor's notice, either consent to such amendments and supplements (which
consent shall not be reasonably withheld) and execute the tendered Lease
Supplement Agreement, or deliver to Lessor a written statement of its reason or
reasons for refusing to so consent and execute. Failure of Lessee to respond
within said (30) day period shall be a default under this lease without
further notice. If Lessor and Lessee are then unable to agree on a Lease
Supplement Agreement satisfactory to each of them, and to the lender within
thirty (30) days after delivery of Lessee's written statement, Lessor shall
have the right to terminate this lease within sixty (60) days after the end of
the said thirty (30) day period but only if Lessee's refusal to agree to the
amendment is unreasonably withheld. Lessee

part, the result of any of the following: the condition, maintenance, operation
or use of the premises, or any part thereof, or any appurtenances or equipment
thereof, or the use by Lessee or any of its agents, employees or invitees, of
any driveways or parking areas to which Lessee has co-extensive use hereunder;
the conduct of any business of the Premises or by the aforesaid parties on said
driveways or parking areas aforedescribed, or any act, omission or accident in
or about the Premises. Said insurance shall indemnify and protect all of said
parties in the manner aforedescribed whether or not any of the foregoing risks
protected against are due or alleged to be due to any act or neglect of Lessee.
Lessor, and occupant of any portion of the Premises, or of any other premises
in the Building, or any agent, employee or servant of any of the foregoing, or
by reason of any person's property in and upon the Premises. Said insurance
policy or policies shall have a minimum limit of $300,000.00 for bodily injury
per occurrence and a minimum limit of property damage (which includes but it
not limited to, any loss or damages alleged to have resulted from the loss of
any property, real or personal) of $200,000.00.
The policy aforedescribed shall be written by responsible companies
authorized to do business in the State of Illinois, shall be in the usual and
customary form and use in Xxxx County Illinois, as issued by the insurance
companies covering the hazards hereinabove set forth, shall be subject to
Lessee's approval as to substance and form, and shall not be cancelable or
terminated without reasonable notice to Lessor. A memorandum or duplicate of
each insurance policy or policies required hereunder shall be delivered to
Lessor prior to Lessee's taking possession of the demised premises, and
thereafter, prior to any termination date of any then existing policy or
policies, and are to be held by Lessor or its designee. Should Lessee fail to
procure or maintain in full force and effect as hereinbefore required, any or
all of the insurance obligated to be obtained by Lessee, or fail to timely
deliver a memorandum or duplicate of any such policy to Lessor or its designee.
Lessor may, at its own option, procure such insurance and collect the cost
thereof from Lessee either upon Lessor's demand or in the next ensuing rent
payment date thereafter, in which case the same shall become a part of rent due
and payable. Lessee's agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the Lessor as
provided in this lease, shall not be deemed limited by the amount of coverage
contained in the insurance required to be maintained by Lessee under the
provisions of this paragraph.
25. Whenever (a) any loss, cost, damage or expense resulting from fire,
explosion or any other casualty or occurrence is incurred by either of the
parties to this lease in connection with the leased premises, and (b) such party
is then covered in whole or in part by insurance with respect to such loss,
cost, damage or expense then the party so insured hereby releases the other
party from any liability it may have on account of such loss, cost, damage or
expense to the extent of any amount recovered by reason of such insurance and
waives any right of subrogation which might otherwise exist in or accrue to any
person on account thereof.
26. Whether or not the following is expressly provided in any paragraph of this
lease, it is agreed and understood that all of the Lessee's covenants,
warranties, indemnities and obligations to Lessor and all Lessee's waivers and
releases of damages and liability and all protection and rights of the Lessor
contained in and provided by any of the provisions of this lease shall be deemed
covenants, warranties, indemnities and obligations to, and waivers, releases,
protection and right of, and extending to, the agent executing this lease, the
beneficiaries of Charter Bank & Trust Trust No. 2502, the Trustee thereof in
both its individual and trust capacities, any person or entity who at any time
during the period of this demise, or any extension thereof, holds any beneficial
interest in the aforesaid trust or in any other trust holding legal title to all
or any part of the premises, the Building or the land upon any part of which the
Building is situated, or any subsequent holder of all or any part of the
equitable or legal title to any or all of the foregoing, and to any assignees of
any of the persons or entities aforedescribed.
27. Without otherwise restricting or limiting the obligations of Lessee for
repairs and maintenance of the premises as in the Lease described, Lessor
agrees that it will at its cost and after reasonable written notice from Lessee
make necessary structural repairs to the roof and exterior walls of the
premises as soon as is reasonably practicable after the receipt of written
notice from Lessee that such repairs are necessary, unless the same has been
damaged by any act or neglect of Lessee or of any of Lessee's agents, servants
or employees or in the operation of Lessee's business, in which case Lessee
shall make said repairs at its expense.
For this purpose, any common wall connecting the premises with any other
premises in the Building shall be deemed an exterior wall. However, in no event
shall Lessor have any liability to Lessee by reason of the condition,
structural or otherwise, of the roof or exterior walls or because of any
failure or delay in making any such exterior repairs or for any expense,
injury, loss or damage to Lessee from any such work done by Lessor, and all
provisions of the Lease relative to work done by Lessor shall be equally
applicable to any such work described herein.
28. Lessee agrees that it will not so use the Premises in any such manner as
to interfere with the use of other premises within the Building by occupant or
occupants thereof.
Notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, the premises being
rented are being prepared by Lessor pursuant to specifications requested by
Lessee. The failure of Lessee to occupy said premises shall result in the
forfeiture of the entire security deposit as damages. However, the forfeiture
of security deposit shall not limit the damages that may be recovered pursuant
to the terms of the lease.
29. Lessee has deposited with Lessor upon the execution of this Lease the sum
of $10,000.00 to secure the prompt and faithful performance of each and every
obligation of this Lease, including the prompt payment of rental and any other
damages or loss resulting from a breach of the said Lease by the Lessee. It is
