If less than a substantial part of the Premises is taken or condemned by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use orpurpose (including sale under threat

19

of such a taking), the rent and additional rent shall be equitably adjusted (on the basis of the number of square feet before and after such event) on thedate when title vests in such governmental or quasi-governmental authority, and the Lease shall otherwise continue in full force and effect.

(iv)      If Tenant shall change the use of the Premises to a use other than the Permitted Use under the Basic Lease Provisions, and such change inuse is not discontinued within five (5) business days after Landlord’s written notice thereof to Tenant.

(i)         Termination of Lease. Landlord may terminatethis lease, by giving written notice to Tenant. This Lease shall automatically cease and terminate, and Tenant shall be immediately obligated to quit the Premises, upon the giving of notice pursuant to this Section 17(b)(i). Any other notice toquit, or notice of Landlord’s intention to re-enter is hereby expressly waived. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, everything contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord to be done and performed shall cease without prejudice,subject however, to the right of Landlord to recover from Tenant all rent and any other sums accrued up to the time of termination or recovery of possession by Landlord, whichever is later.

23

below) shall not be realized by Landlord, Tenant shall be liable for all damages sustained by Landlord, including, without limitation, deficiency in rent,reasonable attorneys’ fees, brokerage fees, and expenses of placing the Premises in first class rentable condition. Landlord, in putting the Premises in good order or preparing the same for re-rental may, at Landlord’s option, make suchAlterations, repairs, or replacements in the Premises as Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the Premises, and the making of such Alterations, repairs, or replacementsshall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid: Landlord shall mitigate this damage by making commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises on reasonable terms, provided Landlord shall in no eventbe liable in any way whatsoever for failure to relet the Premises after making commercially reasonable efforts to do so, or in the event that the Premises are relet, for failure to collect the rent thereof under such reletting, and in no event shallTenant be entitled to receive any excess, if any, of such net rent collected over the sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder.

(iv)      Acceleration of Payments. If an Event of Default has occurred, then upon five (5) business days’ notice to Tenant, Landlord may collect from Tenant up toan amount equal to the Accelerated Rent Component (defined below), which amount shall be held and applied by Landlord, not as liquidated damages, but as security and/or payment against damages and other payments that Landlord is entitled to recoverunder this Lease, at law or in equity on account of Tenant’s default hereunder.

If the amount of Landlord’sjudicially determined damages against Tenant have been fully and finally determined, Landlord may cause the Additional Rent Component to be increased by an amount equal to the difference between (a) the amount of such judicially determined damagesand (b) the aggregate amount, including any previously entered Accelerated Rent Component, of any judgment previously entered against Tenant.

(v)        Monetary Damages. Any non-consequential damage or loss of rent sustained by Landlord may be recovered by Landlord, at Landlord’s option, atthe time of the reletting, or in separate actions, from time to time, as said damage shall have been made more easily ascertainable by successive relettings, or, in a single proceeding deferred until the expiration of the term of this Lease (inwhich event Tenant hereby agrees that the cause of action shall not be deemed to have accrued until the date of expiration of said term) or in a single proceeding prior to either the time of reletting or the expiration of the term of this Lease, inwhich event Tenant agrees to pay Landlord the difference between the present value of the rent

24

reserved under this Lease on the date of breach, discounted at six percent (6%) per annum, and the Fair Market Value.

(vi)      Anticipatory Breach; Cumulative Remedies. Nothing contained herein shallprevent the enforcement of any claim Landlord may have against Tenant for anticipatory breach of the unexpired term of this Lease. In the event of a breach or anticipatory breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or provisions hereof, Landlord shallhave the right to seek an injunction and the right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity (unless limited hereunder) as if re-entry, summary proceedings and other remedies were not provided for herein. Mention in this Lease of anyparticular remedy shall not preclude Landlord from any other remedy, in law or in equity (unless limited hereunder). Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event ofTenant being evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and conditions of this Lease, or otherwise.

(c)        Waiver. If, under the provisions hereof, Landlord or Tenant shallinstitute proceedings against the other and a compromise or settlement thereof shall be made, the same shall not constitute a waiver of any other covenant, condition or agreement herein contained, nor of any of Landlord’s or Tenant’srights hereunder. No waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any breach of any covenant, condition or, agreement herein contained shall operate as a waiver of such covenant, condition, or agreement itself, or of any subsequent breach thereof. No payment byTenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the monthly installments of rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or letteraccompanying a check for payment of rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such rent or to pursue any other remedy provided inthis Lease. No re-entry by Landlord, and no acceptance by Landlord of keys from Tenant, shall be considered an acceptance of a surrender of the Lease. In the event of litigation between the parties, the non-prevailing party shall pay any reasonableattorney’s fees incurred by the other prevailing party.

(d)        Rightof Landlord to Cure Tenant’s Default.

Such payment andinterest shall constitute additional rent hereunder due and payable within twenty (20) business days after rendition of a statement or bill; provided that the making of such payment or the taking of such action by Landlord shall not operate to curesuch default or to estop Landlord from the pursuit of any remedy to which Landlord would otherwise be entitled.
