possession of the Premises to Landlord, and Landlord shall immediately become entitled to
receive from Tenant an amount equal to the difference between the aggregate of all Base Rent
and Additional Rent reserved under this Lease for the balance of the Term, and the fair rental
value of the Premises for that period, determined as of the date of such termination.
b. Landlord may, at Landlord's option, with or without terminating this
Lease, enter upon the Premises and remove any and all persons therefrom and take and retain
possession thereof by any means available to Landlord, including summary dispossess
proceedings. If Landlord elects to terminate Tenant's right to possession only, without
terminating the Lease, Landlord may, at Landlord's option, enter into the Premises, remove
Tenant's signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and hold possession thereof as
hereinabove provided, without such entry and possession terminating the Lease or releasing
Tenant, in whole or in part, from Tenant's obligations to pay the rent hereunder for the full term
or for any other of its obligation under this Lease. Landlord may, but will not be under
obligation to, relet all or any part of the Premises in any manner, for any term, for such rent and
upon terms satisfactory to Landlord and may decorate or make any repairs, changes, alterations
or additions in or to the Premises that may be necessary or convenient. If Landlord does not relet
the Premises, Tenant will pay Landlord on demand all amounts due from Tenant to Landlord
under this Lease for the remainder of the Term. If the Premises are relet, Tenant shall pay any
excess of the rent over the actual proceeds of such reletting, net of all expenses, including repairs

or construction costs and leasing commissions. Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord shall
have no obligation to mitigate Landlord's damages under this Lease. If the Premises are at the
time of any Event of Default sublet or leased by Tenant to others, Landlord may, as Tenant's
agent, collect rents due from any subtenant or other tenant and apply such rents to the rent and
other amounts due hereunder without in any way affecting Tenant's obligation to Landlord
hereunder. Such agency, being given for security, is hereby declared to be irrevocable.
c. Landlord may declare Base Rent and all items of Additional Rent (the
amount thereof to be based on historical amounts and Landlord's estimates for future amounts)
for the entire balance of the then current Term immediately due and payable, together with all
other charges, payments, costs, and expenses payable by Tenant as though such amounts were
payable in advance on the date the Event of Default occurred.
d. Landlord may remove all persons and property from the Premises, and
store such property in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of
Tenant, without service of notice or resort to legal process (all of which Tenant expressly waives)
and without being deemed guilty of trespass or becoming liable for any loss or damage which
maybe occasioned thereby.
e. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall be
cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or equity. Without limitation of the foregoing, Landlord shall be entitled to
injunctive relief in case of the violation, or attempted or threatened violation, of any covenant,
agreement, condition or provision of this Lease, or to a decree compelling performance of any
covenant, agreement, condition or provision of this Lease, or to any other remedy allowed by law
or equity.
f. If proceedings shall be commenced by Landlord to recover possession of
the Premises, either at the end of the Term or upon the earlier termination of this Lease, or for
non-payment of rent or any other reason, Tenant specifically waives the right to any notices now
or hereafter required by law, and agrees that no notices other than those set forth in this Lease
shall be required.
g. No expiration or termination of this Term by operation of law or otherwise
(except as expressly provided herein), and no repossession of the Premises or any part thereof
shall relieve Tenant of its liabilities and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive such
expiration, termination or repossession, and Landlord may, at its option, sue for and collect all
rent and other charges due hereunder at any time as and when such charges accrue.
h. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted
by or under any present or future law in the event this Lease is terminated, or in the event of
Landlord obtaining possession of the Premises, or in the event Tenant is evicted or dispossessed
for any cause, by reason of violation by Tenant of any of the provisions of this Lease.

i. The receipt by Landlord of any rent or other sum payable hereunder, with
knowledge of the breach of any covenant or agreement (other than the prior failure to pay such
rent or other sum) shall not constitute a waiver or cure of such breach or prevent Landlord from
exercising any of its rights or remedies hereunder on account of Tenant's breach.
j. In the event that Landlord commences suit for the repossession of the
Premises, for the recovery of rent or any other amount due under the provisions of this Lease, or
because of the breach of any other covenant herein contained on the part of Tenant to be kept or
performed, and a breach shall be established, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all expenses incurred
in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys' fees.

continue in full force and effect.
35. LIABILITY OF LANDLORD: Tenant shall look solely to the Shopping Center

month of continued occupancy an amount equal to two times the monthly rent being paid by

Landlord from Tenant after expiration or termination of this Lease shall not serve to reinstate or
extend this Lease or affect any prior notice given by Landlord to Tenant.
40. RIGHT TO EXHIBIT: Tenant agrees to permit Landlord and Landlord's agents,
employees or other representatives to show the Premises to persons wishing to rent or purchase
the same, and Tenant agrees that during the final six (6) months of the Term, Landlord or

front of the Premises or any part thereof, offering the Premises for rent or for sale.

amount of any rental excise, transaction, sales, business or privilege tax (except income tax)
attributed to or measured by rental which is now or subsequently imposed upon Landlord by any
government or unit thereof.
42. TENANT'S PROPORTIONATE SHARE: As used in this Lease, the term
"Tenant's Proportionate Share" shall refer to a fraction, the numerator of which is the ground
floor square footage of the Premises and the denominator of which is the ground floor square
footage of all rentable buildings in the Shopping Center, which shall be subject to adjustment for
increases and decreases in the square footage of the Premises and the rentable buildings in the
ssa~ io.a s~i roe 13

seven tenths percent (1.7%).
43. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS: Tenant shall pay to Landlord in each calendar
year, Tenant's Proportionate Share of all Taxes (as defined hereafter). As used herein, the term
"Taxes" shall mean all taxes and assessments levied or assessed against the Shopping Center,
including general real property taxes and assessments for public improvements. Such amounts
shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent in monthly installments in advance, based upon
Landlord's estimate of total Taxes for the calendar year. Following the end of each calendar year,
Landlord shall provide Tenant with a statement setting forth the actual amount of Taxes for the
calendar year and the Taxes, if any, to be paid by Tenant to Landlord for such calendar year,
which amount shall be due within thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of such statements. Iii
the event that the actual amount of Taxes for a calendar year are less than total tax payments by
Tenant for such period, then such excess shall be applied to Tenant's next succeeding Tax
Payment. Landlord shall have the right to setoff any amount due to Landlord by Tenant from
monies due from Landlord to Tenant under Section 4, if any.
Should this Lease commence or terminate on a day other than the first day of the
calendar year, Tenant's share of Taxes for such partial year shall be pro-rated based on the
number of days of the Term which falls within such calendar year.
44. COMMON AREA SERVICES: Landlord shall furnish Tenant those services
hereafter described which shall be included in CAM (defined hereafter):

replacing the common areas and facilities of the Shopping Center ("CAM"), including, but not
limited to, Landlord's costs of painting, signing, lighting, cleaning, striping, policing and security
and snow removal, premiums for liability, casualty and other insurance maintained by Land-lord,
repairs to and replacements of paving, roofing, curbs, walkways, landscaping, drainage, pipes,
ducts, conduits lighting and other common facilities and structures, garbage collection and
disposal, and common sewer, water, electric and other utilities, but CAM costs shall not include
rental agency and management fees that Landlord may incur.
At the commencement of each calendar year, Landlord shall provide Tenant with
an estimate of the total projected costs of CAM for such calendar year. During such calendar
year, Tenant shall pay, in advance, each month, one twelfth of Tenant's Proportionate Share of
such projected CAM cost, as Additional Rent. Following the end of each calendar year,
Landlord shall provide Tenant with a statement setting forth the actual amount of CAM costs for
the calendar year, Tenant's Proportionate Share of such costs, and the amount of CAM, if any,
still to be paid by Tenant to Landlord for such calendar year, which amount shall be due within
thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of such statement. In the event that the actual amount of
asano.a sn iro6 14
Tenant's Proportionate Share of CAM costs for a calendar year are less than total CAM payments
by Tenant for such period, then such excess shall be applied to Tenant's next succeeding CAM
payment.
Landlord may, from time to time during a calendar year, make reasonable
adjustments to Tenant's monthly CAM payment to account for differences between actual CAM
costs and Landlord's projection of CAM costs for such calendar year.
If any repair or replacement shall be a capital expenditure, CAM costs shall
include the amortized cost of such repair or replacement, based upon its useful life. Should
municipal refuse disposal be provided and there shall be no charge for such service, then it shall
be Tenant's responsibility to take care of and provide its own refuse containers and arrange for
collection and disposal of the same. Such containers shall be placed at a location selected by
Landlord not sooner than 5:00 p.m. the day before pickup and shall be removed by Tenant not
later than 5:00 p.m. the day of the pickup and shall be stored in the Premises.
Should this Lease commence or terminate on a day other than the first day of the
calendar year, Tenant's share of CAM costs for such partial year shall be pro-rated based on the
number of days of the Term which falls within such calendar year.
46. ROOF: Landlord shall have the exclusive right to use and install equipment on
the roof of the building in which the Premises is located, provided that such use, and the
installation of such equipment, shall not interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises.
47. SECURITY: As security for the performance of its obligations hereunder, upon
execution of this Lease, Tenant has paid to Landlord, and agrees to maintain thereafter, a security
deposit of Seven Hundred and Seventy-Nine Dollars ($779.00). Upon the occurrence of any
event of default hereunder, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other
remedy, use the security deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of Base Rent or
Additional Rent, or any other loss or damage of Landlord, and Tenant shall thereafter
immediately replenish the all or such portion of the security deposit soused by Landlord. The
remaining balance of the security deposit shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant within a
reasonable time after termination of this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be
obligated to return the remaining balance of such security deposit until all payments due from
Tenant to Landlord under this Lease shall have been made in full. The security deposit .shall not
be considered and advance payment of rent or a measure of Landlord's damages in case of default
by Tenant. Tenant shall receive no interest on such security deposit and Landlord may
commingle the same with other monies of Landlord. In the event of a sale or transfer of
Landlord's interest in the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to transfer the security deposit
to the purchaser or transferee and upon such transfer Tenant shall look only to the new landlord
for the return of the security deposit and Landlord shall thereupon be released from all liability to
Tenant for the return of or accounting for such security deposit.
48. VALIDITY OF LEASE: The terms, conditions, covenants and provisions of this
Lease shall be deemed to be severable. If any clause or provision herein contained shall be
adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or by operation of
