ARTICLE

DEFAULT
AND REMEDIES THEREFOR




(a)
Default. Any of the following shall consitute a default by Lessee:





(1)
Failure to pay any rental, provide the insurance required for this lease or to
pay the other expenses or obligations assumed under this Lease within fifteen
(15) days after the due date.





(2) Any
violation at any time of any other condition of this Lease, if such violation
continues for thirty (30) days after written notice of such violation is mailed
by Lessor to Lessee.





(3) The
filing in any court of a petition in bankruptcy, re­ceivership,
reorganization, for respite, or for any other debtor's proceedings by or against
Lessee.




(4) Any
seizure of Lessee's interest in this Lease under any writ
of seizure of execution.





(b)
Remedies. If any default shall occur, then, in addition, to any other rights
which Lessor may have under law or under the provisions of this Lease, Lessor
shall have the following options:


(1) To
proceed for past due installment only, reserving its rights to proceed later for
the remaining installments and to exercise any other option granted by this
Lease;


(2) To cancel
this Lease and to proceed for past due insta11­ menta;
and/or


(3) To
accelerate the rental for the unexpired term of the Lease.


However,
Lessor agrees that in the event of any default other than the default described
in (a)(l) above, Lessor will provide the Lessee with written notice of the
default, and Lessee shall have thirty (30) days there­after within which to
correct the default.




Lessee
waives any putting in default for such breach, except as expressly
required by this Lease. Failure strictly and promptly to enforce the
conditions set forth above shall not operate as a waiver of Lessor's
rights.


The
acceptance of rent by Lessor shall not waive any preceding breach by Lessee of
any term or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the
particular rental so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of the
pre­ceding breach at the time of the acceptance of such rent. Receipt by
Lessor of a partial rental payment, even with special endorsement thereon, shall
not con­stitue a waiver of any of Lessor's rights hereunder. The waiver by
Lessor or Lessee of any breach of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of any
subse­quent breach of the same of any other term or condition of this Lease.
In the event of the failure of the Lessee to perform any of its obligations
under this Lease, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to, cause such
obligations to be performed and shall have the right to collect such sums of
money as may be ex­pended by Lessor therefore from Lessee, together with
interest at the rate of ten (10%) per cent per annum until paid. Such
performance by the Lessor shall not
constitute a waiver of any default occasioned by Lessee's
non-performance.


If Lessor
employs an attorney to collect rent or any other sum due by Lessee, or
if suit is brought to recover possession of the Leased Premises, or because of the
breach of this Lease by Lessee (and a breach shall be established), Les­see
shall pay to Lessor all expense reasonably incurred therefor, including a
reasonable attorney's fees for such suit or collection.





(c)
Default by Lessor. In the event Lessor fails to fulfill any of its obligations under this Lease,
Lessee agrees to provide Lessor, and anyMortgagee of the Leased Premises
of which Lessee has been notified, with notice of the default and shall allow
Lessor, or Mortgagee at Mortgagee's option, twenty (20) days within which said
default may be cured. In the event said default is not cured during this period,
Lessee shall have the right to en­


force any
and all remedies granted by this Lease Agreement or by law
against Lessor.


ARTICLE
XIII


TERMINATION
AND HOLDING OVER





Upon
termination, Lessee shall deliver the Leased Premises in good condition,
ordinary wear and tear accepted. In the event the Lessee holds the Lease
over, upon termination or expiration of this Lease, the holding


over
shall operate to extend the Lease on a month to month basis and shall thereafter
constitute this Lease a lease from month to month. In the event the
Lessee does elect to hold the Lease over, either party shall have
the


right
during the holdover period to terminate the continuation of the holding over by
giving the other party thirty (30) days written notice. All the other terms and
conditions of this Lease shall remain in effect during the holding


over

paragraph or any part thereof directly involved in the controversy in

equal to the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI)


between
the day of the beginning of the previous period and the day of
begin­ ning
of the renewal period. If a consumer price index number is not available for any
such day, the number to be used shall be the number on the last pre­ceeding
day on which it was available provided the CPI still is being published and
calculated in the same way as at the effective date of this Lease.





(b) CPI
shall mean the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers
published by the United states Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics,
for the Chicago, Illinois area, sUbgroup All Items (1982­1984=100)
•





(c) If
the manner in which the CPI is determined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
shall be substantially revised, including without limitation, a change in the
base index year, an adjustment shall be made by the Lessor in such revised index
which would produce results equivalent, as nearly as possi­ble, to those
which would have been obtained if such COP had not been so revised. If the CPI
should become unavailable to the public because publication is
dis­


continued,
or otherwise, Lessor shall select a substitute index that most closely
approximates the above referenced index, as reasonably determined by Lessor.
