7

 

 

12.2    If part of the Demised Premises shall be taken or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose but such taking or condemnation does not render the Demised Premises substantially unsuitable for Lessee's business use, then this Lease shall continue in full force and effect without abatement of rent. However, in the case of a taking described in this Section 12.2, Lessor shall have the right to cancel this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Lessee within thirty (30) days after the possession of the part so taken shall be required for such use or purpose.

ARTICLE XIV

 

DEFAULT

 

14.1    In the event that Lessee shall fail or neglect to do or perform any act or thing herein provided for Lessee to be done or performed, and such failure shall continue for ten (10) days after Lessor gives written notice to Lessee specifying the nature of the act or thing to be done or performed, then Lessor may, at Lessor's option, do or perform, or cause to be done or performed, such act or thing, and may enter upon the Demised Premises for such purpose. Upon demand, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the entire cost and expense incurred by Lessor in doing such act or thing, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs. Any act or thing done by Lessor pursuant to the provisions of this Section 14.1 shall not be construed as a waiver of any covenant, term or condition herein contained, or of the performance thereof.

 

14.2    Any of the following events shall be deemed to be a default by Lessee under this Lease;

 

(a)   If Lessee shall fail to pay, any installment of rent herein reserved or any other amount which Lessee is required to pay hereunder, within ten (10) days after notice from Lessor that Lessee has failed to pay such rent;

 

(b)   If Lessee shall fail to comply with any term, condition or covenant of this Lease, other than the payment of rent or other amount to be paid by Lessee hereunder, and shall not cure such failure within twenty (20) days after Lessor gives written notice thereof to Lessee, or if such failure cannot reasonably be cured within such twenty (20) day period, then if Lessee shall not have commenced to cure such failure within such twenty (20) day period and diligently prosecute same to completion;

 

 

8

 

 

(c)   If Lessee shall become insolvent or shall make a transfer in fraud of creditors or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors;

 

(d)   If Lessee shall file a petition under any section of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or under any similar law or statute of the United States or any state thereof, or if Lessee shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent in proceedings filed against Lessee thereunder; or

 

(e)   If Lessee shall vacate or abandon the Demised Premises during the Term of this Lease.

 

14.3    Upon the occurrence of a Default by Lessee hereunder, and in addition to any other rights and remedies which Lessor may have by law or otherwise, Lessor shall have the option, in addition to the fifty percent (50%) required payment described in Article 2.3 hereinabove, to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without further notice or demand whatsoever:

 

(a)   Declare immediately due and payable the entire amount of the rent and additional rent then remaining to be paid under this Lease for the balance of the Term of this Lease.

 

(b)   Enter upon and take possession of the Demised Premises without terminating this Lease and without relieving Lessee of Lessee's obligation to make the monthly payments of rent hereunder, and expel or remove Lessee and any other person who may be occupying the Demised Premises, or any part thereof, and, at Lessor's election, either remove or distrain for rent any personal property of Lessee located on the Demised Premises, and relet the Demised Premises in the name of Lessor or Lessee at any rental readily obtainable and receive the rent therefor, and if the rent from such reletting exceeds the rental herein reserved, then Lessor will not have to pay Lessee the difference. Lessee shall pay to Lessor, upon Lessor's demand from time to time, the amount by which the rent derived from such reletting is less than the rent and additional rent herein reserved plus the expenses incurred by Lessor with respect to such reletting, including reasonable attorney's fees and brokerage fees, for the remainder of the Term of this Lease.

 

(c)   Forfeit and terminate this Lease forthwith. In the event of such termination, Lessee shall immediately surrender the Demised Premises to Lessor, and if Lessee fails to do so, Lessor may enter upon and take possession of the Demised Premises and expel or remove Lessee and any other person who may be occupying the Demised Premises, or any part thereof, and, at Lessor's election, either remove or distrain for rent any personal property of Lessee located therein. In the event of forfeiture of this Lease as herein provided, Lessee agrees that any prepaid rent being held by lessor hereunder shall be forfeited to Lessor as liquidated damages for Lessee's default, which liquidated damages shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any unpaid rent or any other damages accruing to Lessor by reason of the violation by Lessee of any of the terms, provisions and covenants of this Lease.

 

 

9

 

 

14.4    Any and all of Lessee's property which may be removed from the Demised Premises by Lessor pursuant to the provisions of this Article XIV or by law, may be handled, removed and stored by Lessor at the risk, cost and expense of Lessee; provided, however, that Lessor shall use reasonable care and caution to prevent any damage or loss to such property and in removing and storing such property. Lessee shall pay to Lessor, upon demand, any and all reasonable charges for storage of such property so long as the same shall be in Lessor's control. Any such property of Lessee not removed from the Demised Premises or retaken from storage by Lessee within thirty (30) days after Lessee's right to possession of the Demised Premises has terminated shall be conclusively deemed to have been forever abandoned by Lessee, and shall become the property of Lessor with Lessor given the right to sell or otherwise dispose of such property.

 

14.5    Upon the occurrence of a default by Lessee, Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all reasonable costs, charges, expenses and attorney's fees incurred in connection therewith and in connection with Lessor's remedies undertaken on account of such default, whether or not such default is subsequently cured. Any amount which Lessee is required to pay Lessor hereunder shall bear interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum from the due date of such payment, or from the date of demand for payment when such amount is payable upon Lessor's demand.

 

ARTICLE XV

 

QUIET POSSESSION

 

Except in the case of a condemnation or damage to or destruction of the Demised Premises by fire or other casualty, Lessor hereby covenants that so long as Lessee performs and keeps all of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, Lessee shall have the right to possession of the Demised Premises for the Term of this Lease.

16.1    Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, Lessee shall surrender to Lessor the Demised Premises and Improvements (including any leasehold improvements made by Lessee pursuant to Article VI hereof) in good order, condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear and damage by fire or other casualty excepted, and free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except for liens and encumbrances created by Lessor. In addition, upon such termination, Lessee shall execute and deliver to Lessor such documents as may be necessary and desirable to confirm title to the Improvements in Lessor.

 

16.2    Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, any of Lessee's trade fixtures, machinery and equipment, furniture and furnishings and other personal property not constituting a part of the Improvements shall remain the property of Lessee, and Lessee shall, if not in default hereunder, be entitled to remove the same or any part thereof to the extent the same may be removed without damaging the Demised Premises or Improvements or with Lessee repairing any damage to the Demised Premises or Improvements occurring incident to such removal. Any such trade fixtures, machinery and equipment, furniture and furnishings and other personal property not removed within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the Lease Term shall be deemed abandoned by Lessee and shall become the sole and absolute property of Lessor.

ARTICLE XVIII

Lessee shall protect, indemnify, save harmless and defend Lessor and the Demised Premises from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and expenses, and including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Lessor or the Demised Premises by reason of (i) any accident, injury to or death of persons, or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Demised Premises or adjoining sidewalks or any other matter or thing arising out of the use or occupation of the Demised Premises or caused by the negligence, errors, acts or omissions of Lessee, or of Lessee's agents, contractors or employees or (ii) any failure on the part of Lessee to perform or comply with any of Lessee's obligations under this Lease. The foregoing indemnity shall specifically apply to those claims asserting negligence on the part of Lessor.
