Lease have been guaranteed by third parties then neither this Sublease, nor the

Sublease.

with all of the obligations of Sublessor to be performed under the Master Lease.
         (b) The acceptance of Rent by Master Lessor from Sublessee or anyone
else liable under the Master Lease shall not be deemed a waiver by Master Lessor
of any provisions of the Master Lease.

subsequent subletting or assignment.
         (d) In the event of any Default of Sublessor under the Master Lease,
Master Lessor may proceed directly against Sublessor, any guarantors or anyone
else liable under the Master Lease or this Sublease without first exhausting
Master Lessor's remedies against any other person or entity liable thereon to
Master Lessor.
         (e) Master Lessor may consent to subsequent sublettings and assignments
of the Master Lease or this Sublease or any amendments or modifications thereto

without obtaining their consent and such action shall not relieve such persons
from liability.
         (f) In the event that Sublessor shall Default in its obligations under
the Master Lease, then Master Lessor, at its option and without being obligated
to do so, may require Sublessee to attorn to Master Lessor in which event Master
Lessor shall undertake the obligations of Sublessor under this Sublease from the
time of the exercise of said option to termination of this Sublease but Master
Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid Rent nor any Security Deposit paid by
