hereunder shall terminate ipso facto upon the happening of any one of such
events, and Lessee shall then quit and surrender the Leased Premises to Lessor,
but Lessee shall remain liable for all its outstanding obligations pursuant to
this Lease. 

     

    D. In the event of
any Event of Default hereunder by Lessee, Lessor may immediately or at any time
