The payment by LESSOR of any such sum or sums, or the performance by LESSOR of any such work, shall be evidence (although not conclusive) of the necessity for such work.
25. MECHANICS’ AND OTHER LIENS IMPOSED BY LESSEE: LESSEE shall keep the Leased Premises and the improvements at all times during the Term free of mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens and other liens of like nature, other than liens created and claimed by reason of any work done by or at the instance of LESSOR, and at all times shall fully protect and indemnify LESSOR against all such liens or claims and against all attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses growing out of or incurred by reason or on account of any such liens or claims. Should LESSEE fail to fully discharge any such lien or claim, LESSOR, at its option, may pay the same or any part thereof, LESSOR being the sole judge of the validity of such lien or claim.
All amounts so paid by LESSOR, together with interest at the maximum legal rate from the time of
payment by LESSOR until repayment by LESSEE, shall be paid by LESSEE upon demand, and if not so
paid, shall continue to bear interest at the aforesaid rate, interest payable monthly, as
additional rent.
26. CONDEMNATION CLAUSE: In the event that all or a part of the Premises is taken by eminent domain
or conveyed in lieu of eminent domain, if the Leased Premises reasonably cannot be used by LESSEE
for its intended purposes, then this Lease will terminate effective as of the date that the
condemning authority shall take possession of the same.
27. FIRE CLAUSE: The LESSEE agrees to notify LESSOR of any damages to the Leased Premises by fire or other hazard and also of any dangerous or hazardous condition within the Leased Premises immediately upon the occurrence of such fire or other hazard or discovery of such condition.
Upon occurrence of a fire, repairs shall be made by LESSOR as soon as reasonably may be done unless the costs of repairing the Premises exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the replacement cost of the building, in which case the LESSOR may, at its option, terminate this lease by giving LESSEE written notice of termination within thirty (30) days of the date of the occurrence.
If the LESSOR does not terminate this Lease pursuant to the paragraph above, then LESSOR has thirty (30) days after the date of occurrence to give written notice to LESSEE setting forth its unqualified commitment to make all necessary repairs or replacements, the projected date of commencement of such repairs, and the LESSOR’S best good faith estimate of the date of completion of the same.
If the LESSOR fails to give such notice, or if the date of completion is more than ninety (90) days after the date of the occurrence, then the LESSEE may, at its option, terminate this Lease, and the LESSOR will be obliged to refund to the LESSEE any rent allocable to the period subsequent to the date of the fire.
28. WAIVER OF NONPERFORMANCE: Failure of the LESSOR or LESSEE to exercise any of its rights under this Lease upon nonperformance by the LESSOR or LESSEE of any condition, covenant or provision herein contained shall not be considered a waiver; nor shall any waiver of nonperformance of any such condition, covenant or provision by the LESSOR or LESSEE be construed as a waiver of the rights of the LESSOR or LESSEE as to any subsequent defective performance or nonperformance hereunder.
29. PAROL EVIDENCE CLAUSE: This instrument constitutes the final, fully integrated expression of the agreement between the LESSOR and the LESSEE, and it cannot be modified or amended in any way except in writing signed by the LESSOR and LESSEE.
30. SUBORDINATION: This Lease is subordinate to the lien of all present or future mortgages that affect the Leased Premises and to all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions of this lease. This clause shall be self-operative; but in any event, LESSEE agrees to execute promptly and deliver any estoppel certificate or other assurances that LESSOR may request in furtherance of this provision.

LESSOR shall, during the term hereof, at its sole expense, provide and keep in force insurance on the building against loss or damage by fire and extended coverage, in an amount equal to One hundred percent (100%) of the full insurable value, which insurance shall be placed with an insurance company or companies approved by LESSOR and licensed to do business in the state wherein lay the Leased Premises. The term “full insurable value” shall mean actual replacement value of the building (exclusive of costs of excavation, foundations and footing below ground level). The insurance required under this paragraph shall be carried in the name of the LESSOR and LESSEE and shall provide that any proceeds thereunder shall be paid to LESSOR and LESSEE and any applicable mortgage holder, according to their respective interests.
