terminate the Lease by giving to the other party a written notice, without prejudice to the rights and compensation available to either party in respect of any prior claim or violation of the Lease, or rights and compensation available to the Lessor
in respect of rent, property management fees and other expenses payable hereunder accrued before the effectiveness of termination. In such case, the Lessor shall return the deposit for the premises. 

VII. Default 
 Both parties further agree
and acknowledge as follows: 
  

	(1)	Default 

 Upon the occurrence of any of the following, the Lessor shall be entitled to
terminate the Lease, to take back the Object leased by the Lessee 30 working days after informing the Lessee in writing in advance, and to claim the Lessee for compensation of its losses if:

by the Lessee; 


  
 23 









	 	(d)	The main structure of the Object is substantially damaged due to reasons of the Lessee, and the Lessee fails to make compensation within 30 days after the expiration of the period notified by the Lessor in writing.


 This right of the Lessor will not prevent it from exercising the right to lodge a lawsuit in the event that the Lessee
breaches the Lease or fails to comply with or perform any term and condition of the Lease, nor prevent it from exercising the right to deduct the losses incurred therefrom from the deposit paid by the Lessee and to confiscate the deposit in
accordance with Article VIII of these Detailed Rules. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lessor or the property management company
designated by the Lessor has the right to cut off water, power or air conditioning of the Object leased by the Lessee without any responsibility, provided that the Lessee shall be notified of such intention three days in advance. The expenses
incurred by the Lessor or the property management company designated by the Lessor due to cut-off and re-connecting of water, power or air conditioning shall be borne by
the Lessee, which may be recovered by the Lessor from the Lessee or deducted from the deposit paid by the Lessee in accordance with Article VIII of these Detailed Rules. 
  

	(2)	Exercise of rights 

 Instead of actually entering the Object, the Lessor sending to the
Lessee a written notice of taking back the Object in the form prescribed by the Lease will be deemed as fully exercising the right. The Lessor will be deemed to have taken back the Object and the Lessee be deemed to have been expelled from the
Object seven days after the Lessor delivers such a written notice (that is, the evacuation period for the Lessee). During the evacuation period, if the Lessee fails to restore the Object to the state described in the confirmation document signed

involved to be borne by the Lessee (if any). The Lessor shall assume no responsibility to the Lessee or any other person for any loss or damage caused by such disposal or any other treatment method. 

 

	(3)	Acceptance of rent and property management fees 

 The acceptance of rent by the Lessor
and the acceptance of property management fees by the property management company designated by the Lessor shall not be deemed as an automatic waiver of their right to prosecute the Lessee for default, incompliance with or nonperformance of terms
and conditions it shall comply with and perform. 

  
 24 









	(4)	Acts of contractors, employees, agents and visitors 

 For the purpose of the Lease, any
act of any employee, visitor, contractor, representative or agent of the Lessee or user of the Object shall be deemed as act of the Lessee. 
  

	(5)	Payment order 

 The failure of the Lessee to pay the rent and property management fee for
the Object in the time and manner prescribed by the Lease shall constitute delay in payment. In such case, the Lessor or the property management company designated by the Lessor may apply to the people’s court for a payment order in accordance
with the Civil Procedure Law of the People’s Republic of China, with all related expenses incurred therefrom to be borne by the Lessee.

shall pay overdue fines equivalent to 0.1% of the aggregate amount due but unpaid each day from the due date to the actual payment date (both the due date and the actual payment date are included).

the Lessee terminate the Lease in advance during the Tenancy Term, if the Lease is early terminated or becomes unfulfillable due to reasons of the Lessee, the Lessor is not liable to return to the Lessee the paid deposit. The Lessor may not
terminate the Lease for no cause, or otherwise, it shall be liable for breach of contract.

Lessor the deposit prescribed in Article 5 of the Lease, so as to ensure the compliance with the terms and conditions the Lessee shall comply with and perform. 

The deposit shall be preserved free of interest by the Lessor on behalf of the Lessee. 

 

	(2)	Withholding and deduction of deposit 

 In the instance the Lessee violates any term or
condition of the Lease, the Lessor shall be entitled to urge actual performance and deduct from the deposit: the expenses due but unpaid by the Lessee, the charges required to be assumed by the Lessee according to the Lease or provisions of laws and
regulations, or losses suffered by the Lessor because of default, incompliance or nonperformance of the Lessee. 
  

	(3)	Complement of deposit 

 Pursuant to the Lease, in case the rent and property management
fees increase in the Tenancy Term, or the deposit becomes insufficient as deducted by the Lessor due to default of the Lessee, the Lessee shall, within ten working days after the receipt of a written notice from the Lessor or the property management
company designated by the Lessor, make up the deposit. 

  
 25

Renminbi free of interest to the Lessee at the latest of thirty days after the Object vacated is handed over to the Lessor upon expiration of the Lease, or thirty days after the resolution of claims arising from default, incompliance with or

 The Lessor’s tolerance, forgiveness or excuse of one-off or repeated nonperformance, violation, incompliance or non-execution of responsibility hereunder by the Lessee doesn’t imply a waiver of rights regarding
continuous or further nonperformance, violation, incompliance or non-execution by the Lessee, nor eliminate or affect the Lessor’s rights or compensation available hereunder in respect of such continuous
or further nonperformance of violation. 
 Unless the Lessor waives its rights in written statement, no act or omission of the Lessor implies
