extent that the Tenant shall receive the benefit of such contest. However
should
the tenant request that the taxes be contested the sole cost of the contest
shall be paid by the tenant. In the event a refund is obtained, Landlord
shall
credit a portion thereof to the next installment of rent due from Tenant,

excepting such defaults that cannot be cured completely within such twenty
(20)
day period, provided that the Tenant shall within such twenty (20) day period,
promptly commence and proceed with reasonable diligence and in good faith
to
remedy such default;
then
and

to
Tenant specifying such event of default or events of default and stating

thereof, or said premises, with additional premises for such term or terms,
(which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have
constituted the balance of the term of this Lease) and on such conditions
(which
may include concessions or free rent and alterations of the demised premises)
as
Landlord, in its uncontrolled discretion, may determine and may collect and
receive the rents therefor. Landlord shall in no way be responsible or liable
for any failure to relet the demised premises or any part thereof, or of
any
failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting.
Section

expiration or termination of this Lease, or summary proceedings, abandonment
or
vacancy shall relieve Tenant of its liability and obligation under this Lease,
whether or not the demised premises shall be relet. In any such event Tenant
shall pay Landlord the rent and all other charges required to be paid by
Tenant
up to the time of such event. Thereafter:
A)
1. Tenant, until the end of the term of this Lease, or what would
have
been such term in the absence of any such event, shall be liable to Landlord
as
damages for Tenant's default, the equivalent of the amount of the rent and
other
charges which would be payable under this Lease by Tenant if this Lease were
still in effect, less the net proceeds of any reletting effected pursuant
to the
provisions above, after deducting all Landlord's expenses in connection with
such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage
and management commissions, operating expenses, legal expenses, reasonable
attorneys' fees, alteration costs, expenses of preparation for such
reletting.
2.
Tenant
shall pay such current damages (herein called "deficiency") to Landlord monthly
on the days on which the rent would have been payable under this Lease if
this
Lease were still in effect, and Landlord shall be entitled to recover from
Tenant each monthly deficiency as the same shall arise.
3.
At any
time after the expiration or termination of this Lease pursuant to this Article,
in lieu of collecting any further monthly deficiencies as aforesaid, Landlord
shall be entitled to recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord,
on
demand, as damages, in addition to the damages provided for in Section 8,
damages computed in the manner set forth in this Section B, minus any such
monthly deficiencies previously recovered from Tenant.
B)
1. In case of any breach of this Lease, Landlord shall immediately
and
ipso facto, without notice or other action by Landlord, become entitled to
recover from Tenant, as damages for such breach, in addition to any damages
becoming due under the lease, an amount equal to the difference between the
rent
and other charges reserved in this Lease from the date of such breach to
the
date of the expiration of the original term demised and the then fair and
reasonable rental value of the premises for the same period. Said damages
shall
become due and payable to Landlord monthly upon such breach of this Lease
and
without regard to whether this Lease be terminated or not, and if this Lease
be
terminated without regard to the manner in which it is terminated. In the
computation of such damages, the difference between any installment of rent
thereafter becoming due and the fair and reasonable rental value of the premises
for the period for which such installment was payable shall be discounted
to the
date of such breach at the rate of not more than four (4%) percent per
annum.
2.
If and
so long as the term of this Lease shall continue, the rent reserved herein
for
the unexpired term the Lease after a breach, shall be reduced by the amount
of
such liquidated damages as may be paid to Landlord, such reduction being
applied
proportionately to each installment of rent thereafter becoming due. During
the
continuance of the Lease after such a breach and until such damages are paid
to
Landlord, the whole amount of each installment of rent herein reserved shall
be
due and payable at the time herein specified and if, by reason of the subsequent
payment of liquidated damages, and the resulting reduction in rental, Landlord
shall have received a sum in excess of all installments, as so reduced, becoming
due after the breach and before the collection of such damages, such excess
shall be refunded upon the receipt of such liquidated damages.
Section
5.
If the
demised premises or any part thereof be relet by Landlord for the unexpired
term
of this Lease or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such
liquidated damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent
reserved upon such reletting shall prima facie be the fair and reasonable
rental
value for the part or the whole of the premises so relet during the term
of the
reletting. Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of
Landlord to obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination, an
amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect
at
the time when and governing the proceeding in which, such damages are to
be
proved, whether or not such amount be greater, equal to, or less than the
amount
of the difference referred to above.
Section
6.
If this
Lease be terminated by summary proceedings or otherwise, or if the premises
are
abandoned or become vacant, and whether or not the premises be relet, Landlord
shall be entitled to recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord,
in
addition to any damages becoming due under this Article, the following: an
amount equal to all expenses, if any, including reasonable counsel fees,
incurred by Landlord in recovering possession of the demised premises, and
all
reasonable costs and charges for the care of said premises while vacant,
which
damages shall be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord at such time as such
expenses are incurred by Landlord.

Lease be terminated in any manner whatsoever, or if there be any breach of
this
Lease, then and in either of such events, Tenant covenants and agrees, any
other
covenant in this Lease notwithstanding:
A)
That
the premises shall be in the same condition as that in which Tenant has agreed
to surrender them to Landlord at the expiration of the term hereof.
B)
That
Tenant, on or before the occurrence of any such event shall perform any covenant
contained in this Lease for the making of any improvement, alteration or
betterment to the premises, or for restoring or rebuilding any part thereof;
and
C)
That,
for the breach of any covenant of the lease, Landlord shall be entitled to
recover and Tenant shall pay, ipso facto, without notice or other action
by
Landlord, the then cost of performing such covenant, less interest thereon
at
the rate of four (4%) percent per annum for the period between the occurrence
of
any such event and the time when any such work or act, the cost of which
is
computed, should have been performed under the other provisions of this Lease
had such event not occurred.
Section
8.
Tenant
hereby expressly waives, as permitted by law, the service of any notice of
intention to reenter provided for in any statute, and except as is herein

or

No
failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict performance of any agreement,
term, covenant, or condition hereof or to exercise any right or remedy
consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial rent
during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any
such
breach or of such agreement, term, covenant or condition. No agreement, term,
covenant or condition hereof to be performed or complied with by Tenant and
no
breach shall affect or alter this Lease, but each and every agreement, term,
covenant and condition hereof shall continue in full force and effect with
respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach thereof.

10.
In the
event of any breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the agreements,
terms, covenants or conditions contained in this Lease, Landlord shall be
entitled to enjoin such breach or threatened breach and shall have the right

11.
Each
right and remedy provided for in this Lease shall be cumulative and shall
be in
addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Lease or now
or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the

more
of the rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude

simultaneous or later exercise by the party in question of any or all other
