notice or to enforce any right or remedy upon any default of Lessee in the performance of any Lessee’s obligations hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver of such rights or remedies by reason of such default, nor shall it prejudice nor affect
any rights or remedies of Lessor with reference to any subsequent default or breach by Lessee. Further, if at any time Lessor should expressly waive any right or remedy upon any default of Lessee in the performance of Lessee’s obligations
hereunder, such waiver shall not be deemed a waiver of subsequent default or breach by Lessee.
