provided only during Lessee's regular business hours.

alterations thereto. All permitted signage placement and/or removal shall be at the Lessee's sole

In the event that the Lessor or Lessee is unable to reasonably perform its obligations under this
Agreement as a result of a natural disaster, war, terrorist activities, strike, lockout, labor issues,
civil commotion, and act of God, or any other event beyond the control of the Lessor or Lessee,
with the exception for non-availability of funds, the party shall not be in breach of this Agreement
if the party diligently performs the obligations after the end of the force majeure event. The non-
performing party shall give written notice to the other party as soon as reasonably practicable in
the event of non-performance due to a force majeure event.
In the event, during the Term or previous Term thereto, the premises shall be destroyed or so
damaged by fire or other casualty as to become uninhabitable or unusable, then in such event, at
the option of the Lessor, this Lease shall terminate from the date of such damage and/or
destruction. The Lessor shall exercise this option to terminate this Lease by delivering written
notice to the Lessee within ____________________ days after the occurrence of such damage
and/or destruction. Upon such notice, the Lessee shall immediately surrender said Premises and
all interest therein to the Lessor, and the Lessee shall pay rent only to such time that damages
and/or destruction occurred. In the event that the Lessors does not elect to terminate this Lease,
this Lease shall therefore continue in full force and effect, and the Lessor shall expeditiously make
any and all necessary repairs to the Premises as needed, placing the same in as good condition as
it was prior to the occurrence of damage or destruction.
PERSONAL PROPERTY
The Lessor shall not be liable for any loss or damage to any merchandise inventory, goods, fixtures,
improvements or personal property of the Lessee in or about said Premises.
ALTERATIONS
Any and all alterations, additions and/or improvements, except trade fixtures, installed at the
expense of the Lessee shall become the property of the Lessor and shall remain upon and shall be
surrendered with the leased Premises as a part thereof on the termination of this lease. Such
alterations, additions, and improvements may only be made with the prior written consent and
approval of the Lessor, which shall not be unreasonably withhold said consent. If consent is
granted by the Lessor for the making of improvements, alterations or additions to the leased
Premises, such improvements, alterations or additions shall not commence until such time as the

coverage in an amount satisfactory to the Lessor protecting the Lessor from liability for injury to
any person and damage to any personal property, on or off the leased Premises, in connection with
the making of such improvements, alterations or additions. No cooling tower, equipment, or
structure of any kind shall be placed on the roof or elsewhere on the leased premises by the Lessee
without prior written permission of the Lessor. If such permission is granted, such work or
installation shall be done at the Lessee's expense and in such a manner that the roof shall not be
damaged thereby. If it becomes necessary to remove such cooling tower, equipment or structure
temporarily so that repairs to the roof can be made, Lessee shall promptly remove and reinstall the
cooling tower, equipment or structure at the Lessee's expense and repair at the Lessee's expense
any damage which may result from such removal or reinstallation. Upon termination of this lease,
Lessee shall remove or cause to be removed from the roof any such cooling tower, equipment or
structure if directed to do so by the Lessor. Lessee shall promptly repair, at its expense, any
damages resulting from such removal. At the termination of this lease, Lessee shall deliver the
leased Premises in good order and condition, natural deterioration only excepted. Any damage
caused by the installation of trade fixtures shall be repaired at the Lessee's expense prior to the
expiration of the lease term. All alterations, improvements, additions and repairs made by the

deemed necessary by the Lessee at the Premises:
___________________________________________________________________________
INTERRUPTION OF UTILITIES
Lessor or Lessor's agent may not interrupt or cause the interruption of utility services paid directly
to the utility company by the Lessee unless interruption results from bona fide repairs,
construction, or an emergency. If any utility services furnished by the Lessor are interrupted and
continue to be interrupted despite the good faith efforts of Lessor to remedy the same, Lessor shall
not be liable in any respect for damages to the person or property of Lessee or Lessee's employees,
agents, or guests and same shall not be construed as grounds for constructive eviction or abatement
of rent. Lessor shall use reasonable diligence to repair and remedy such interruption promptly.
LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
The Lessee shall comply with all laws, orders, ordinances and other public requirements now and
hereafter affecting the Premises or the use thereof, and the Lessee shall indemnify, defend and
hold harmless the Lessor from any expense or damage resulting from the failure to do so.
FIXTURES
With the exception for Lessee's personal property and trade fixtures, all buildings, repairs,
alterations, additions, improvements, installation and other non-trade fixtures installed or erected
on the Premises, whether by or at the expense of the Lessor or Lessee, shall belong to the Lessor
and shall remain on and be surrendered with the Premises at the expiration or termination of this
Lease. However, the Lessor shall retain the option to permit the Lessee to remove their alterations
or improvements prior to the expiration of this Lease and return the Premise to its original
condition.
REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE
The Lessor shall maintain the foundation, exterior walls (with the exception of glass; windows;
doors; door closure devices; window and door frames; molding; locks and hardware) and exterior
painting or other treatment of exterior walls, and the roof of the leased Premises in good repair
except that the Lessor shall not be required to make any repairs resulting from the negligence or
acts of negligence on the behalf of the Lessee, its staff, employees, sublessees, licensees and
concessionaires. The Lessee shall be responsible for maintenance of the common areas and
common area equipment and furnishings. Any such repairs and/or maintenance in which the
Lessor would be responsible, the Lessee agrees to provide Lessor with written notice of the needed
repairs and/or maintenance, and Lessor shall ensure that any repairs and/or maintenance shall be
made and completed within a reasonable time frame. Lessee shall notify the Lessor of any
emergency repairs to be made. Lessee shall keep the interior of the leased Premises in good, clean
and workable condition and shall, at its sole expense, make all needed repairs and replacements,
including replacement of cracked or broken glass, windows, doors, door closure devices, door and
window frames, molding, locks and hardware, except for repairs and replacements required to be
made by the Lessor under this section.
In the event that any repairs required to be made by the Lessee hereunder are not made within
____________________ days after written notice delivered to the Lessee by the Lessor, the Lessor
shall reserve the right and option to make or have said repairs made without liability to the Lessor
for any loss or damage which may result by reason of such repairs, and that Lessee shall pay to the
Lessor, upon demand as additional rent hereunder, the cost of such repairs plus. At the termination
of this Lease, Lessee shall deliver the leased premises in good order and condition, normal wear
and tear excepted. Normal wear and tear meaning the deterioration which results from normal use
and not as an act of carelessness, neglect, accident or abuse.
EMINENT DOMAIN
In the event that the Premises are taken under the power of eminent domain or a conveyance in
lieu thereof by any authority having the right of condemnation, or if a portion thereof is taken so
that the Premises are unsuitable, in the Lessee's reasonable opinion, for Lessee's use, then the term
of this lease shall terminate as of the date that title shall vest in the acquiring authority, and the
rent and other charges shall be adjusted as of the date of such taking. In such case, the Lessor shall
be entitled to the proceeds of the condemnation award made to the Lessor. Nothing herein shall be
construed to prevent the Lessee from separately pursuing a claim against the condemning authority
for its independent loss or damages to the extent available, provided however, that no award made
to or on behalf of the Lessee shall reduce, limit, or restrict the award to the Lessor, and no allocation
of the Lessor's award in condemnation shall occur. The Lessee shall have no claim against the
Lessor for the value of the unexpired term of this Lease. Should any part of the Premises be taken
in the exercise of eminent domain or a conveyance in lieu thereof or in connection therewith, but
not such as to render the Premises unsuitable for the operation of Lessee's business, this Lease
shall continue on the same terms and conditions except that the description of the Premises or the
real estate taken by right of eminent domain or conveyance in lieu thereof or in connection
therewith shall be modified to reflect such taking. In the event this Lease does not terminate by
reason of such taking, the condemnation proceeds from the 'Demised Premises' will first be used
to restore the Premises to a position of occupancy by the Lessee. The balance of such
condemnation proceeds from the Premises, if any, shall belong to the Lessor.
WAIVER OF SUBROGATION
As part of the consideration for this Lease, each of the parties hereby releases the other party from
all liability for damage due to any act or neglect of the other party occasioned to the property
owned by said parties which is or might be incident to or the result of fire or other casualty against
loss for which either of the parties is now carrying or hereafter carry insurance; provided however,
that the releases herein contained shall not apply to any loss or damage occasioned by intentional
acts of either of the parties, and the parties further covenant that any insurance they obtain on their
respective properties shall contain an appropriate provision whereby the insurance company, or
companies, consent to the mutual release of liability contain in this paragraph.
DEFAULT & REMEDIES
Lessor shall have the following remedies if Lessee commits a default. These remedies are not
exclusive; they are cumulative and in addition to any remedies now or later allowed by law:
RE-ENTRY: Upon the happening of any such event of default, Lessor, at any time thereafter may:
(a) Either with or without notice of demand, declare the Lease term ended and re-enter the
Premises or any part thereof, either with or without process of law, and expel or remove therefrom
Lessee and all parties occupying the same or any of them, using force as may be necessary so to
do, and again repossess and enjoy the same without prejudice to any remedies that Lessor may
otherwise have by reason of the breach hereof. Or
(b) Re-enter the Premises at its option without declaring the Lease Term ended and relet the
whole or any part therefor for the account of Lessee on such terms and conditions and at such rent
as Lessor may deem proper, collecting such rent and applying it on the amount due from Lessee
hereunder. And on the expense of such reletting (including expense of alteration and special
inducements to Lessee) and on any other damage or expense so sustained by Lessor, or on any
such item or items, Lessor will recover from Lessee the difference between the proceeds of such
reletting and the amount of rentals reserved hereunder and any such damage or expense from time
to time which said sum Lessee agrees to pay upon demand.
LESSEE DEFAULT AND REMOVAL OF ABANDONED PROPERTY
In the event that the Lessee abandons the Premises or otherwise defaults in the performance of any
obligations or covenants herein, the Lessor may enforce the performance of the lease in any manner
provided by law. This lease may be terminated at the Lessor's discretion if such abandonment or
default continues for a period of ____________________ days after the Lessor notifies the Lessee
of such abandonment or default and of Lessor's intention to declare this lease terminated. Such
notice shall be sent by the Lessor to the Lessee at the Lessee's last known address by certified mail.
If Lessee has not completely removed or cured the default within the ____________________ day
period, this lease shall terminate. Thereafter, Lessor or its agents shall have the right without
further notice or demand to enter the leased Premises and remove all property without being
deemed guilty of trespass and without waiving any other remedies for arrears of rent or breach of
covenant. Upon abandonment or default by the Lessee, the remaining unpaid portion of any rent
shall become due and payable. For the sole purpose of this section, Lessee is presumed to have
abandoned the Premises if goods, equipment, or other property, in an amount substantial enough
to indicate a probable intent to abandon the Premises, is being or has been removed from the
Premises and the removal is not within the normal course of Lessee's business. Lessor shall have
the right to store any property of Lessee that remains on the abandoned Premises and, in addition
to Lessor's other rights, may dispose of the stored property if the Lessee does not claim the property
within ____________________ days after the date that the property is stored, provided Lessor
delivers notice by certified mail to Lessee.
DAMAGES
Should Lessor terminate this Lease by reason of any breach thereof by Lessee, Lessor may
thereupon recover from Lessee the worth at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of
the amount of rent and charges equivalent to rent reserved herein for the balance of said Term over
the then reasonable rental value of the Premises for the same period. Lessor shall not by any re-
entry or other act be deemed to have terminated this Lease or the liability of Lessee for the total
rent hereunder or any installment thereof then due or thereafter accruing or for damages unless
Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing that Lessor has so elected to terminate the Lease.
LESSOR'S RIGHT TO CURE LESSEE'S DEFAULT
Lessor, at any time after Lessee commits a default, can cure the default at Lessee's cost. If Lessor
at any time, by reason of Lessee's default, pays any sum or does any act that requires the payment
of any sum, the sum paid by Lessor shall be due immediately from Lessee to Lessor at the time
the sum is paid.
WAIVER
The rights and remedies of the Lessor under this Lease, as well as those provided by law, shall be
cumulative, and none shall be exclusive of any other rights or remedies. A waiver by the Lessor
of any breach or default of the Lessee shall not be deemed or construed to be a continuing waiver
of such breach or default nor as a waiver of or permission, expressed or implied, for any subsequent
breach or default. It is agreed that the acceptance by the Lessor of any installment of rent
subsequent to the date the same should have been paid shall not alter the covenant and obligation
of Lessee to pay subsequent installments of rent promptly upon the due date. Receipt by Lessor of
partial payment after Lessee's default shall not be construed to be or constitute a cure of any such
default. No receipt of money by Lessor before or after the termination of this Lease shall in any
way reinstate, continue or extend the term above demised.
TOXIC OR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Lessee shall not store, use or dispose of any toxic or hazardous materials in, on or about the
Premises without the prior written consent of Lessor. Lessee, at its sole cost, shall comply with all
laws relating to Tenant's storage, use and disposal of hazardous or toxic materials. Lessee shall be
solely responsible for and shall defend, indemnify and hold Lessor, its agents and employees,
harmless from and against all claims, costs and liabilities, including attorney's fees and costs,
arising out of or in connection with the Lessee's storage, use or disposal of any toxic or hazardous
material in, on or about the Premises including, but not limited to, removal, clean-up and
restoration work and materials necessary to return the Premises, and any other property of
whatever nature located on the Premises, to their condition existing prior to the appearance of toxic
or hazardous materials on the Premises. Lessee's obligations under this paragraph shall survive the
termination of this Lease.
GOVENING LAWS
This Agreement shall be construed under and in accordance with the laws of the State of
____________________.
COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS
Lessee shall, at its own expense, comply with all laws, orders, codes and requirements of all
government entities with reference to the use and occupancy of the leased Premises. Lessee and
Lessee's agents, employees, and invitees shall fully comply with any rules and regulations
governing the use of the buildings or other improvements to the leased premises as required by the
Lessor. Lessor may make reasonable changes in such rules and regulations from time to time as
deemed advisable for the safety, care and cleanliness of the leased Premises, provided same are in
writing and are not in conflict with this lease.
NOTICES
Any notice hereunder shall be sufficient if sent by certified mail, addressed to the Lessee at the
Premises, and to the Lessor where rent is payable.
SUBORDINATION OF LEASE TO MORTGAGES
This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the lien of existing mortgages and of
mortgages which hereafter may be made a lien on the Premises; provided however, that with regard
to any pledge or mortgage executed by the Lessor, Lessor shall use its best efforts to provide to
the Lessee a non-disturbance agreement from any mortgagee or other lien holder of Lessor's
interest in the Premises. Such non-disturbance agreement shall be in form and content reasonably
acceptable to Lessee and Lessor's mortgagee or other lien holder, together with a representation
that the Lessor is not in default of any of the terms of any such mortgage or security agreement as
of the date thereof. Although no instrument or act on the part of the Lessee shall be necessary to
effectuate such subordination, the Lessee will nevertheless execute and deliver such further
instruments subordinating this Lease to the lien of any such mortgages as may be desired by the
mortgagee. The Lessee hereby irrevocably appoints the Lessor as Lessee's attorney-in-fact to
execute and deliver such instrument for the Lessee. Provided however, and notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions hereof, upon foreclosure of the mortgage with the mortgagee succeeding to
the rights of the Lessor, the Lessee shall, at the option of said mortgagee, be bound to the
mortgagee under all of the terms of the Lease for the balance of the term hereof remaining with
the same force and effect as if the mortgagee were the Lessor under the Lease, and the Lessee
hereby attorns to the mortgagee as its Lessor, such attornment to be effective and self-operative if
the mortgagee so elects. In no event, however, shall the mortgagee be liable for any act or omission
of any prior Lessor, be subject to any offsets or defenses which Lessee might have against any
prior Lessor, or be bound by any rent or additional rent which the Lessee might have paid to any
