              Additional
                      Rent Based on Real Estate Taxes.  As Additional Rent, Lessee

If at a time a payment is required the amount of the real estate taxes and assessments
                    for the then calendar year shall not be known, Lessee shall pay Lessor, as Additional Rent, one-twelfth (1/12th) of the real estate taxes and
                    assessments for the preceding calendar year and upon ascertaining the real estate taxes and assessments for the current calendar year, Lessee shall pay Lessor any difference upon demand, or if Lessee shall be entitled to a credit,

                    have the right to contest the amount or validity of any real estate tax or assessment assessed and levied against the Premises, or to seek a reduction in the valuation of the buildings on the Premises assessed for real estate tax
                    purposes, by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith (the “Tax Appeal”), but only after payment of such taxes and assessments. Except as set forth below, Lessor stall not be required to join in any Tax Appeal. If required by law, Lessor shall, upon written
                    request of Lessee, join in the Tax Appeal or permit the Tax Appeal to be brought in Lessor’s name, and Lessor shall reasonably cooperate with Lessee, at the cost and expense of Lessee.  Lessee shall pay any increase that may result in
                    real estate taxes or assessments as a consequence of the Tax Appeal, which payment obligations shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

        also name Lessor (and Lessor’s mortgagees, if any and if required by Lessor’s mortgagees) an additional insured or loss payee (as applicable) with respect to any insurance policies and shall provide Lessor or its designees upon written request with
        certificates of insurance or copies of insurance policies evidencing that insurance satisfying the requirements of this Lease is in effect at all times.  All insurance policies shall provide that coverage may not be canceled or reduced without at
        least ten (10) days written notice first being given to Lessor.  If Lessee shall fail to procure and maintain the insurance required hereunder, Lessor may but shall not be required to procure and maintain the same, and any amounts paid by Lessor
        for such insurance shall be Additional Rent, which shall be due and payable to Lessor on the next succeeding date on which rent is due.

    5.6 Insured Loss; Waiver of Subrogation.  Lessor and Lessee agree and covenant that neither shall be liable to the other for loss arising out of damage to or destruction of the Premises or contents thereof
        when such loss is caused by any perils included within the all-risk insurance policy.  This provision shall be binding whether or not such damage or destruction is caused by negligence of either party or their respective members, managers,
        officers, employees, agents, representatives, guests or invitees.  Lessor and Lessee each waive any rights each may have against the other on account of any loss or damage occasioned to Lessor or Lessee, as the case may be, their respective
        property, the Premises or its contents.  The insurance policies obtained by Lessee pursuant to this Lease shall contain endorsements waiving any right of subrogation which the insurer may otherwise have against Lessor.

    5.7 Indemnification.  Except for the gross
        negligence or intentional wrongdoing of Lessor, Lessee shall indemnify and hold Lessor, its members, managers, officers, employees, agents and representatives, harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of

    action, suits, proceedings, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees, caused by,
        incurred or resulting from Lessee’s use or occupancy of the Premises, by Lessee or any of its guests or invitees.  It is expressly understood that Lessee’s obligation under this Section 5.7 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease for any reason.

    ARTICLE VI

        Compliance with Laws

    6.1 General Compliance with Laws & Requirements. Except as provided herein, Lessee’s use of the Premises shall comply with each and every
          applicable federal, State of Missouri, county and municipal statute, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, order, directive or requirement, currently or hereafter existing, including, but not limited to, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
          (“ADA”) and all environmental laws, together with all
          amending and successor federal, State of Missouri, county and municipal statutes, ordinances, codes, rules, regulations, orders, directives or requirements (the “Requirements”).  The failure to mention any specific statute, ordinance, rule, code, regulation, order, directive or requirement shall not be
          construed to mean that Lessee was not intended to comply with such statute, ordinance, rule, code, regulation, order, directive or requirement.  Because compliance with the ADA is dependent upon Lessee’s specific use of the Premises, Lessor makes
          no warranty or representation as to whether or not the Premises complies with the ADA or any similar legislation.  If, at any time during the Term, modifications or additions are required to be made in order for Lessee’s use of the Premises to be
          in compliance with the ADA, Lessee hereby agrees to make such modifications and/or additions at Lessee’s own expense.

    6.2 Environmental Compliance.

    
      	
              (a)

            	
              Notice. 






                  Lessee shall give notice to Lessor at least seven (7) days in advance of any production, generation, handling, storage, treatment, transportation, disposal, release or removal of any Hazardous Substance from, on or within the Premises,
                  and of any arrangement for transport, disposal, storage or treatment of any Hazardous Substance from, on or within the Premises.  As used herein, the term “Hazardous Substance” shall mean any and all pollutants, contaminants, toxic or hazardous wastes or any other substances the use and/or removal of which is restricted, prohibited, regulated or penalized
                  under or pursuant to any applicable environmental, health, safety or similar law, ordinance, order, rule or regulation now or at any time and from time to time.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may use and store on the Premises de minimis amounts of substances commonly used in the ordinary course of Lessee’s business, provided that such use shall be in full
                  compliance with all applicable laws.

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              Lessee’s
                      Covenants.  Lessee covenants, warrants and represents that it will not use or employ all or any portion of the Premises to handle, transport, store, treat or dispose of any Hazardous Substance, whether or not it was
                  generated or produced from, on or within the Premises; and Lessee further covenants, warrants and represents that any activity on or relating to the Premises shall be conducted in full compliance with all applicable laws.

              (c)

            	
              Discharge. 






                  Lessee shall notify Lessor in writing within two (2) business days of (i) any spill, release, discharge or disposal of any Hazardous Substance in, on or under the Premises or any portion thereof, (ii) any matters where Lessee is required
                  by law to give notice to any governmental or regulatory authority respecting any release of Hazardous Substances at or relating to the Premises, and (iii) any noncompliance by Lessee of any applicable environmental laws or breach by
                  Lessee of the requirements set forth in this Section 6.2.

            


    

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              Investigation. 






                  Lessee shall promptly provide all information and sign all documents reasonably requested by Lessor with respect to compliance with this Section 6.2. 






                  Further, Lessor and its representatives shall have reasonable access to the Premises, from time to time, to conduct an environmental assessment, investigation and/or sampling of the Premises. Upon Lessor’s reasonable suspicion that
                  Hazardous Substances have been spilled, released, discharged or disposed of on the Premises, Lessor shall have the right, during the Term and upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, to require that Lessee hire, and in
                  such event Lessee shall, at Lessee’s own expense, hire an environmental consultant satisfactory to Lessor to undertake sampling at the Premises sufficient to determine whether Hazardous Substances have been spilled, released, discharged
                  or disposed of on the Premises during the Term.

            


    

    
      	
              (e)

            	
              Lessor’s
                      Right to Perform Lessee’s Obligations. In the event, pursuant to this Lease, Lessee is required to undertake any sampling, assessment, investigation or remediation with respect to the Premises, then, at Lessor’s reasonable
                  discretion, Lessor shall have the right (but without any obligation to do so), upon notice to Lessee, from time to time, to perform such activities at Lessee’s expense, and all reasonable sums incurred by Lessor shall be paid by Lessee,
                  upon demand.

            


    

    
      	
              (f)

            	
              Indemnity. 






                  If the covenants, warranties and representations contained in this Section 6.2 are false or breached, Lessee agrees to defend, indemnify, protect
                  and hold harmless Lessor against any and all Claims (hereinafter defined), that Lessor may be liable for, suffer, incur, or pay by reason of the false or breached covenants, warranties and representations.  LESSEE ALSO AGREES TO DEFEND,
                  INDEMNIFY, PROTECT AND HOLD HARMLESS LESSOR AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS WHICH LESSOR MAY HEREAFTER BE LIABLE FOR, SUFFER, INCUR OR PAY ARISING UNDER ANY APPLICABLE LAW AND RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF ANY ACT, ACTIVITY, OR VIOLATION OF
                  ANY APPLICABLE LAWS ON THE PART OF LESSEE, ITS AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, OR ASSIGNS, AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS WHICH LESSOR MAY HEREAFTER BE LIABLE FOR, SUFFER, INCUR OR PAY RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF ANY HANDLING, STORAGE, TREATMENT,
                  TRANSPORTATION, DISPOSAL, RELEASE OR THREAT OF RELEASE OF HAZARDOUS WASTE OR HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES FROM, ON OR WITHIN THE PREMISES.  The liability of Lessee pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

              Event of
                      Default.  Any violation or breach of this Section 6.2 shall be considered an Event of Default.

              Claims. 






                  For purposes of this Section 6.2, the term “Claims”
                  shall include and mean all actions, causes of action, whether common law or statutory, remedies, demands, out-of-pocket costs, liabilities, charges, suits, judgments, expense, damage, personal injuries, property damage, incidental or
                  consequential damages, clean-up costs, civil penalties, attorneys’ fees, litigation expenses, abatement costs, abatement and corrective injunctive relief, injunctive relief requiring removal and/or remedial action, all costs of removal or

              Survival.
                  This Section 6.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.  Without limiting any other remedy available to Lessor under
                  this Lease or by Requirements, Lessee’s failure to abide by the terms of this Section 6.2 shall be restrainable or enforceable, as the case may
                  be, by injunction.

            


    

    ARTICLE VII

        Casualty and Entry & Inspection

    7.1 Repair of Damage to Premises by Lessor. 
        Lessee shall promptly notify Lessor of any damage to the Premises resulting from fire or any other casualty.  If the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Lessor shall promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for
        insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Lessor’s reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Article 7, restore the Premises.  Such
        restoration shall be to substantially the same condition of the Premises and common areas prior to the casualty, except for (a) modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the Premises, (b)
        improvements or alterations of or additions to the Premises made by Lessee during the Term, which were not approved in writing by Lessor and covered by such all-risk insurance policy described in Section 5.1 hereof, or (c) any other modifications to the common areas or parking areas deemed desirable by Lessor.  Any other restoration shall be performed by Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, in
        accordance with the terms of this Lease.  Lessor shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Lessee or its visitors, or injury to Lessee’s business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof.  However, if such fire or
        other casualty shall have damaged the Premises necessary to Lessee’s occupancy, Lessor shall allow Lessee a proportionate and equitable abatement of Rent for any portion of the Premises Lessee cannot and does not use, but only to the extent Lessor
        is reimbursed from the proceeds of loss of rents insurance purchased by Lessee pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof and to the extent the Premises are materially
        damaged and unfit for use for the Permitted Use under this Lease, and not actually used by Lessee as a result thereof.

    7.2 Option to Repair.  Notwithstanding the
        terms of Section 7.1 hereof, Lessor may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises and instead terminate this Lease by notifying Lessee in writing of
        such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of casualty with such notice to include a termination date giving Lessee ninety (90) days to vacate the Premises. Lessor’s election to restore the Premises shall operate to keep this Lease in
        full force and effect, but pending restoration of the Premises any rent payable by Lessee shall abate in accordance with Section 7.1 until restoration of
        the Premises is substantially complete.  The term of this Lease shall then be extended for the time it took to substantially restore the Premises.

    
      11

      
        


    

    7.3 Notice of Casualty.  If the improvements
        situated upon the Premises shall be damaged or destroyed at any time, whether covered by insurance or not, Lessee shall give prompt notice thereof to Lessor.

    7.4 Entry and Inspection.  Lessee shall
        permit Lessor and its agents to enter the Premises at all reasonable times to inspect the same or to make such repairs as Lessor may elect to make.  Lessor shall have such right to fulfill the purpose thereof without any rebate of rent to Lessee
        for any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises thereby occasioned.  In addition, Lessor shall have the right to enter the Premises at any reasonable time within one hundred eighty (180) days of any forthcoming termination hereof for
        the purpose of offering and showing the Premises for sale or lease to third parties.

    ARTICLE VIII

        Eminent Domain

    8.1 Substantial Taking.  If twenty-five
        percent (25%) or more of the area of the Premises should be taken for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation or by right of eminent domain or by private purchase in lieu thereof, this Lease may, at the
        election of the Lessee, be terminated, and the consideration given herein shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective on the date physical possession is taken by the condemning authority.

    8.2 Partial Taking.  If less than
        twenty-five percent (25%) of the area of the Premises should be taken as aforesaid, this Lease shall not terminate; however, the consideration given hereunder during the unexpired portion of this Lease shall be reduced in proportion to the area
        taken, effective on the date physical possession is taken by the condemning authority, following such partial taking.

    8.3 Compensation to Lessor.  The entire
        award of damages or compensation for the property taken or condemned shall belong to and be the property of Lessor, and Lessee hereby assigns to Lessor any and all such award or compensation.

    ARTICLE IX

        Assignment, Subletting, Attornment, Subordination & Estoppel Certificate

    9.1 Assignment By Lessee.  Lessee shall not
        assign or sublease any rights under this Lease to any third party without the prior written consent of Lessor, which such consent may be withheld in Lessor’s sole discretion.  Regardless of Lessor’s consent, no assignment or subletting shall
        release Lessee from this Lease.  Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.

    9.2 Assignment By Lessor.  Lessor may assign
        any and all of its rights under this Lease to any third party, without Lessee’s consent.

    9.3 Attornment.  Lessee shall attorn and be
        bound to any of Lessor’s successors under all terms and conditions of this Lease.

    
      12

      
        


    

    9.4 Subordination.  This Lease shall be
        subordinate to the lien of any mortgage or the lien resulting from any other method of financing or refinancing now or hereafter in force against the Premises, or any portion thereof, and to any and all advances to be made under such mortgages and
        all renewals, modifications, extensions, consolidations and replacements thereof.  The aforesaid provisions shall be self-operative and no further instrument shall be required to evidence such subordination.  Lessee covenants and agrees to execute
        and deliver upon demand such further instruments subordinating this Lease on the foregoing basis to the lien of any such mortgage or mortgages as shall be desired by Lessor and any mortgagees or proposed mortgagees and hereby irrevocably appoints
        Lessor the attorney-in-fact of Lessee to execute and deliver such instruments within ten (10) days after written notice to do so.

    9.5 Estoppel Certificate.  Within ten (10)
        days after request by Lessor, or in the event that upon any sale, assignment or hypothecation of the Premises, Lessee agrees to deliver a certificate to any proposed mortgagee or purchaser, or to Lessor, certifying that this Lease is unmodified and
        in full force and effect (or, if modified, that the same is in full force and effect as modified, and stating the modifications), that there are no defenses or offsets thereto and the dates to which rent have been paid and whether there is any
        breach or default existing under the Lease.

    ARTICLE X

        Enjoyment, Occupation and Security

    10.1 Quiet Enjoyment.  So long as Lessee
        shall pay Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums due from Lessee under this Lease and shall keep and perform all of the terms, covenants, obligations and conditions on its part herein contained, Lessor covenants that, subject to Lessor’s
        rights herein, Lessee shall have the right to the peaceful and quiet occupancy of the Premises.

    10.2 Occupation and Abandonment.  Lessee agrees not to vacate or abandon the Premises at any time during the Term.  Should Lessee vacate or abandon the Premises or be dispossessed
        by process of law or otherwise, such abandonment, vacation or dispossession shall be a breach of this Lease and, in addition to any other rights which Lessor may have, Lessor may remove any personal property belonging to Lessee which remains on or
        about the Premises and store the same, for the account of Lessee.  Further, Lessor may proceed to dispose of said personal property either by public or private sale after posting notice of its intent to sell such property for five (5) days upon the
        front door of the Premises.  It is agreed that Lessor may be the purchaser of all or a portion of such personal property at such sale.  Lessee may redeem said property at any time prior to sale or other disposition thereof upon full payment to
        Lessor of the reasonable expenses incurred by Lessor taking, holding and preparing the property for sale and of any amount due from Lessee to Lessor for rent or otherwise.  Should said property be disposed of by sale or other means, the proceeds
        shall be applied to satisfy any amount due from Lessee to Lessor for rent or otherwise, and to the reasonable expenses incurred for taking, holding and disposing of said property.

    ARTICLE XI

        Default and Remedies

    11.1 Default.  Each of the following events shall be deemed a breach of this Lease and a default by Lessee (each an “Event of Default”):

    
      	
              (a)

            	
              Rent. 






                  If any Base Rent, Additional Rent or other monetary sum due hereunder remains unpaid for ten (10) days after written notice thereof to Lessee;

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              Insolvency. 






                  If Lessee becomes insolvent, performs any act of insolvency, is not generally paying its debts as the same become due or files a petition or has a petition filed against it, under any federal bankruptcy code or law, as amended;

            


    

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              Use of
                      Premises.  The Premises shall be used for purposes (i) other than those listed in Section 3.1 hereof or (ii) other than those
                  approved in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof;

            


    

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              Lien. 






                  Lessor shall do or permit to be done anything that creates a lien on the Premises in violation of the terms of Section 4.5 hereof;

            


    

    
      	
              (e)

            	
              Environmental






                      Compliance.  Lessee shall violate the terms, conditions and provisions of Section 6.2 hereof;

            


    

    
      	
              (f)

            	
              Assignment. 






                  Lessee shall assign or sublet the Premises without consent of Lessor pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof;

            


    

    
      	
              (g)

            	
              Abandonment. 






                  If Lessee vacates or abandons the Premises pursuant to Section 10.2;

            


    

    
      	
              (h)

            	
              Failure to
                      Perform.  If Lessee fails to perform any of the terms, covenants, conditions or obligations of this Lease; or

            


    

    
      	
              (i)

            	
              Other
                      Agreement.  If there is a breach or default under any other agreement between Lessor and Lessee.

            


    

    11.2 Cure.  If any Event of Default does not involve the payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent or other monetary sum due hereunder, is not willful or intentional, does not place any
        rights or property of Lessor in immediate jeopardy, is not known to Lessee and is within the reasonable power of Lessee to cure within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice thereof, as determined by Lessor in its reasonable discretion, then such
        Event of Default shall not constitute a breach or default hereunder, until Lessor shall have given Lessee notice thereof and a period of thirty (30) days shall have elapsed.  During such period Lessee may correct or cure such Event of Default, but
        upon Lessee’s failure to accomplish such cure within such period, an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder without further notice or demand of any kind.  If such Event of Default cannot reasonably be cured within the 30-day
        period, as determined by Lessor in its reasonable discretion, and Lessee is diligently pursuing a cure of such Event of Default, then Lessee shall after receiving notice specified herein have a reasonable period to cure such Event of Default.

    
      14

      
        


    

    11.3 Remedies upon Default.  Upon the
        occurrence of an Event of Default, and without any notice, except, if applicable, the notice required under certain circumstances by Sections 11.1 and 11.2 above, or such other notice as may be required by law and may not be waived by Lessee (all other notices being hereby waived), Lessor shall be entitled to
        exercise, at its option, separately, concurrently, successively or in any combination, all remedies available at law or in equity, including without limitation any one or more of the following:

    
      	
              (a)

                  To terminate this Lease and take possession of the Premises;

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              Operate
                      Lessee’s Business.  To reenter (which reentry shall not operate to terminate this Lease unless Lessor expressly so elects) and take possession of the  Premises or any part thereof, any or all personal property or fixtures
                  of Lessee upon the Premises and all franchises, licenses, permits and other rights or privileges of Lessee pertaining to the use and operation of the Premises and to conduct business thereon in the name of Lessor or of Lessee, but for the
                  sole profit and benefit of Lessor and without compensation to Lessee;

                  security interest, which are hereby granted by Lessee, and to dispose of such property in accordance with laws prevailing at the time and place of such seizure or remove all or any portion of such property and cause the same to be stored
                  in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of Lessee;

            


    

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              Relet the
                      Premises.  To relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (including a term which extends beyond the original term of this Lease), at such rentals and upon such other terms as Lessor, in its sole
                  discretion, may determine, with all proceeds of such reletting being applied to the rentals and other sums due from Lessee in such order as Lessor may, in its sole discretion, determine, with Lessee remaining liable for any deficiency;

            


    

    
      	
              (e)

            	
              Remaining
                      Rent.  To declare all Base Rent, Additional Rent and charges due hereunder to be immediately due and payable and thereupon all such amounts due to the end of the Term shall thereupon be accelerated.  In the event that any

              (f)

    In addition, in the event of any breach or default by Lessee, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to, immediately or
        at any time thereafter, and without notice, except as required herein, correct such breach or default (without, however, curing the same) for the account and at the expense of Lessee.  Any sum or sums so paid by Lessee, together with interest at
        the rate of 

    
      15

    11.4 Nonwaiver of Default.  The subsequent
        acceptance of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other sums due from Lessee under this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of any preceding breach of any obligation by Lessee hereunder (other than Lessee’s failure to pay the particular rental so
        accepted), and the waiver of any breach of any covenant or condition by Lessor shall not constitute a waiver of any other breach regardless of knowledge thereof.

    ARTICLE XII

        Miscellaneous

    12.1 Time is of the Essence.  Time is of the
        essence in this Lease and all provisions hereof.

    12.2 Holding Over.  Any holding over after
        the expiration of the Term, with the consent of Lessor, shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month, and shall be on the terms and conditions herein specified, so far as applicable but Base Rent shall be equal to one hundred fifty
        percent (150%) of that payable at the expiration of this Lease.

    12.3 Furniture and Fixtures.  All furniture,
        fixtures and equipment placed in the Premises by Lessee shall remain the property of Lessee, subject to the rights of Lessor as provided by law or this Lease.  Lessee may, at the expiration of the term of this Lease, remove such furniture, fixtures
        and equipment if removal is done so as not to damage the Premises, provided that there are no current defaults in the obligations of Lessee under this Lease which would entitle Lessor to a lien on such furniture, fixtures and equipment.

    12.4 No Brokers.  Lessor and Lessee each
        represent and warrant one to the other that neither of them has employed any other broker, realtor or agent in connection with the negotiations of the terms of this Lease or the execution thereof.  Lessor and Lessee hereby agree to indemnify and to
        hold each other harmless against any loss, expense or liability with respect to any claims for commissions or brokerage fees arising from or out of any breach of the foregoing representation and warranty.

    12.5 Confidentiality.  Lessee acknowledges
        that the terms and conditions of this Lease are to remain confidential for Lessor’s benefit, and may not be disclosed by Lessee to anyone, by any manner or means, directly or indirectly, without Lessor’s prior written consent; provided, however,
        Lessee may disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease if required by law or court order, and to its attorneys, accountants, employees and existing or prospective financial partners provided same are advised by Lessee of the confidential nature
        of such terms and conditions and agree to maintain the confidentiality thereof (in each case, prior to disclosure). Lessee shall be liable for any disclosures made in violation of this Section 12.5 by Lessee or by any entity or individual to whom the terms of and conditions of this Lease were disclosed or made available by Lessee. The consent by Lessor to any disclosures shall not be deemed to be a
        waiver on the part of Lessor of any prohibition against any future disclosure.

    12.6 Financial Statements.  Within ten (10)
        days following Lessor’s written request therefor, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor, the annual and quarterly financial statements of Lessee

    
      16

      
        


    

     for the most recent fiscal year and quarter, which financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally
        accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) (or in accordance with a method other than GAAP, provided that such financial statements fully and
        accurately reflect the financial condition of Lessee (or Guarantor, as the case may be), and the actual method of preparation is fully disclosed in writing), certified as to accuracy and completeness by Lessee’s manager, president or chief
        financial officer.

    12.7 Rules and Regulations.  Lessee and its
        members, managers, officers, employees, agents, representatives, guests and invitees shall observe faithfully and comply with any and all reasonable and non-discriminatory rules and regulations, if any, governing the Premises, which may be
        prescribed from time to time by Lessor, in Lessor’s reasonable discretion.  Lessor agrees to provide a copy of any rules and regulations to Lessee upon their adoption by Lessor, including any amendments or modifications thereto.  Upon receipt of
        such rules and regulations, or amendments or modifications, thereto, Lessee agrees to carry out, observe and comply with the same.

    12.8 Force Majeure.  Whenever a period of
        time is herein prescribed for action to be taken by Lessor or Lessee, Lessor or Lessee shall not be liable or responsible for and there shall be excluded from the computation of any such period of time, any delays due to Force Majeure Events.  As
        used herein, the term “Force Majeure Events” means actual delays caused by unusually adverse weather conditions, fire, or other acts of God,
        strikes, lockouts, acts of public enemy, riots or insurrections, ware or any other unforeseen circumstances or events beyond the control of Lessor or Lessee (except financial circumstances or events or matters which may be resolved by the payment
        of money); provided, however, no delay shall suspend or abate any obligation of Lessee to pay Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other sums due from Lessee under this Lease.

    12.9 Limitation on Lessor’s Liability. 
        LESSEE AGREES THAT IT SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE PREMISES IN SEEKING TO ENFORCE ANY OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES WHATSOEVER OF LESSOR UNDER THIS LEASE OR TO SATISFY A JUDGEMENT (OR ANY OTHER CHARGE, DIRECTIVE OR ORDER) OF ANY KIND AGAINST LESSOR.  LESSOR
        SHALL NOT LOOK TO THE PROPERTY OR ASSETS OF ANY OF THE MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF LESSOR IN SEEKING TO ENFORCE ANY OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES WHATSOEVER OF LESSOR UNDER THIS LEASE OR TO SATISFY A JUDGMENT
        (OR ANY OTHER CHARGE, DIRECTIVE OR ORDER) OF ANY KIND AGAINST LESSOR, AND IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY DEFICIENCY JUDGMENT BE SOUGHT OR OBTAINED AGAINST LESSOR.  NO PERSON OR LEGAL ENTITY WHO OR WHICH IS A MEMBER, MANAGER, OFFICER, EMPLOYEE, AGENT OR
        REPRESENTATIVE OF LESSOR SHALL BE PERSONALLY LIABLE FOR ANY OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES OF LESSOR UNDER THIS LEASE.  LESSOR SHALL IN NO EVENT EVER BE LIABLE FOR ANY PUNITIVE DAMAGES, CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SPECIAL DAMAGES OR BUSINESS LOSSES.

    12.10 Lessor’s Performance of Lessee’s Obligations. 
        The performance by Lessor of any obligation required of Lessee under this Lease shall not be construed to modify this Lease, nor shall it create any obligation on the part of Lessor with respect to any performance required 

    
      17

      
        


    

    of Lessee under this Lease, whether Lessor’s performance was undertaken with the knowledge that Lessee was obligated to
        perform, or whether Lessor’s performance was undertaken as a result of mistake or inadvertence.

    12.11 Relationship of Parties.  The
        relationship of the parties hereto is strictly that of Lessor and Lessee; Lessor has no ownership in Lessee’s enterprise and this Lease shall not be construed as a joint venture or partnership.  Lessee is not and shall not be deemed to be agent or
        representative of Lessor.
