If Lessor is an individual, corporation, trustee of a trust or a partnership, there shall be no personal liability on the part of the individual, corporation, the trustee of said trust, the beneficiaries of said trust, the partnership, or the partners of the partnership, and any such liabilities shall be limited to the interest of the Lessor in the Building.

Lessor may accept rent after the giving of any termination notice or notice to vacate the Premises or after the institution of an action to recover possession of the Premises or after the taking of any other measure against Lessee without prejudicing Lessor’s rights or any of them against Lessee. No course of conduct or acceptance of late payment by Lessor shall be deemed to constitute waiver of any rights of Lessor or constitute an estoppel against Lessor with respect to Lessor’s ability to collect amounts thereafter coming due.

 DESCRIPTION OF PREMISES
 RIDER 1
  
 RENEWAL OPTIONS
  
 1. Provided Lessee is not in default of its obligations under the Lease, Lessee shall have an option to renew the term of the Lease for ____ (__) additional term of _______ (___) years, commencing with the expiration of the then Lease Term (the “Renewal Term”) subject to the following conditions: (a) the Renewal Monthly Rent for the Renewal Term shall be ____________________________ ($_________) for the first ________ (___) months of the Renewal Term and _______________________ ($__________) for the remaining _____________ (___) months of the Renewal Term (“Renewal Monthly Rent”); (b) the Renewal Option is conditioned upon the Lessee giving Lessor written notice of its intent to renew not less than _________ (___) days prior to the Termination Date of the Lease; and (c) all other terms and conditions of the Lease for the Renewal Term shall be the same as contained the original Lease. Time is of the essence.
  
 2. Lessee acknowledges that it is Lessor’s sole obligation to determine the expiration of the time period within which to send the notice of renewal required hereby and that time is of the essence the delivery of such notice. Lessee acknowledges, and hereby expressly waives, any right which Lessee may have to assert any claim that the failure to exercise this option a timely fashion was the result of accident, surprise, honest mistake, omission, clerical error, negligence or any other act or inaction on the part of Lessee. Lessee further acknowledges that if Lessor does not receive a notice of renewal within the time period specified herein, Lessor will take action to market the Premises and obtain additional Lessee(s) therefore.
  
 3. Accordingly, Lessee agrees that Lessor shall conclusively be deemed to have relied upon no exercise of the renewal option(s) and, the event Lessee attempts to exercise this Renewal option(s) an untimely fashion, that Lessor will be detrimentally affected by such late exercise.
