        power
        of eminent domain, or shall be conveyed to any such authority in lieu of
        such
        taking, and if such taking or conveyance shall cause the remaining part of

        Leased Premises to be untenantable and inadequate for Tenant's Business,
        then
        Landlord or Tenant may, at their option, terminate this Lease as of the date

        repairs, alterations and improvements as may be necessary to render the part
        not
        taken or conveyed tenantable; and the rent shall be reduced in proportion
        to the part
        of
        the Leased Premises so taken or conveyed.

        compensation awarded for such taking or conveyance
        shall be the sole property of Landlord, without any deduction therefrom for

        present or future estate of Tenant, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord
        all
        its right,
        title and interest in and to any such award; provided, however, Tenant shall
        have the
        right
        to recover from such taking authority, but not from Landlord, such compensation
        as may be awarded to Tenant on account of moving and relocation expenses

        basis of
        leasable square footage remaining and occupied thereafter, until such time
        as
        the Leased Premises are made fully fit for use by Tenant; provided, however,
        that if gross negligence
        or willful misconduct of Tenant, or its agents, employees or invitees shall have

        the
        event the
        Building shall be partially or totally destroyed by fire or other casualty,
        the
        same shall
        be
        repaired as soon as is reasonably possible, at the expense of Landlord, unless
        Landlord shall elect to terminate this Lease as hereinafter provided. If
        damage
        to the Leased Premises is to such extent that the cost of restoration, as
        estimated by Landlord will
        exceed fifty percent (50%) of the replacement value of the Leased Premises (including

              This
                  Lease shall terminate on the twentieth (20th)
                  day following the givingof
                  said notice;(b)
              Tenant
                  shall surrender possession of the Leased Premises on or before
                  such
                  termination date; and(c)
              The
                  rental provided hereunder shall be apportioned as of the date of
                  such
                  termination and any Rental paid for any period beyond said date
                  shall be
                  refunded to Tenant.
  Unless
        Landlord so elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall proceed with the restoration
        of the Leased Premises and/or the Building as soon as reasonably possible. If
        the
        damage to the Building as the result of any casualty is such that the Leased Premises
        cannot be used by Tenant for Tenant's Business for a period of three (3)
        or more
        months, as estimated by Landlord, either Landlord or Tenant may cancel and terminate
        this Lease by giving notice of such termination to the other party within
        thirty

        Rental shall be
        apportioned as of the date of such termination and any Rental paid for any
        period beyond
        said date shall be refunded to Tenant. In no event, however, shall Tenant
        have the
        right
        to cancel or terminate this Lease if the gross misconduct or willful neglect
        of
        Tenant, or its agents, employees or invitees shall have contributed to the
        cause
        of such casualty.
