termination or lapse, or the effective date of any reduction in the amount of insurance.

to Lessor upon demand as Additional Rent hereunder. Alterations to Premises by Lessee, after Lease Commencement Date, shall be
made only with prior written consent of Lessor and under Lessor's control and supervision. However, Lessor's consent shall not

(B)       Lessee
Agreements. Lessee agrees that its operations on Premises will not violate any Hazardous Material Laws. Lessee shall not cause
or permit to continue any testing, examination, storage, holding, release, disposal or use of any Hazardous Materials on Premises,
and Lessee shall not cause or permit to continue any intentional or unintentional release of Hazardous Materials other than those
licensed or permitted by governmental agencies or by applicable law or regulations. Should Lessee cause or permit any intentional
or unintentional release of Hazardous Materials onto the surface or into the subsurface of Premises resulting in damage to soil,
surface water, ground water, flora or fauna in Premises, within waters of the State or the United States, or on appropriate jurisdictional
governmental agencies, such substances shall be immediately removed, with proper disposal, and all required environmental cleanup
procedures shall be diligently undertaken pursuant to all such laws, 'ordinances and regulations, at Lessee's sole expense.

 

(C)       Lessee
Indemnity. Lessee shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold Lessor, and each of Lessor's members, managers, shareholders,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys, officers, successors and assigns, free and harmless from and against any and all claims,
actions, causes of action, liabilities, penalties, forfeitures, damages, losses or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs through litigation and all appeals) resulting from death of or injury to any person or damage to Premises
or from the order of any governmental entity, arising from or caused in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by Lessee's
failure to comply with any Hazardous Materials Laws with respect to Premises during the term. This indemnity shall survive the
expiration or sooner termination of this agreement and inure to the benefit of Lessor, its successors and assigns.

 

(D)       Lessee
Notices. With respect only to Premises and any adjoining property, Lessee shall immediately advise Lessor in writing of, and
provide Lessor with a copy of: (i) any notices of violation or potential or alleged violation of any Hazardous Materials Law which
are received by it from any governmental agency; (ii) any and all inquiry, investigation, enforcement, clean-up, removal or other
governmental or regulatory actions instituted or threatened relating to it or Premises; and (iii) all claims made or threatened
by any third party against it or Premises relating to any Hazardous Materials.

 

ARTICLE XII

SIGNAGE 

 

12.01      Signage. Lessee
may furnish and install a sign on or about Premises with Lessor's prior written consent, which will not unreasonably be withheld,
conditioned or delayed. Such signage must, at all times, comply with any and all applicable laws, rules, regulations and ordinances.
Lessee shall not place, erect nor maintain on any exterior surface of Premises, or anywhere outside of Premises, any sign, lettering
decoration, or advertising, except such signs as may be permitted by Lessor. Lessee shall, at its expense, maintain such permitted
or required signs in a good state of repair and upon vacating Premises, Lessee agrees to remove all signs and to repair all damage
caused by such removal.

 

ARTICLE XIII

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

 

13.01      Damage or Destruction.
If, during Base Term, Premises is:

 

 (A)     destroyed by fire or any other casualty whatsoever, or;

 

    	 	12	 

     

    

 

(B)       partially
destroyed so as to render Premises unfit for occupancy or Lessee's reasonable beneficial use and enjoyment or conduct of Lessee's
usual business therein, or;

 

(C)       destroyed
by a casualty which is not covered by Lessee's Insurance, or if such casualty is covered by Lessee's Insurance but a mortgagee
of Lessor or other party entitled to insurance proceeds fails to make such proceeds available to Lessor in an amount sufficient
for restoration of Premises (provided, however, that Lessor agrees to make a good faith effort to have such mortgagee make such
proceeds available for full restoration or rebuilding);

 

then Lessor shall make its reasonable determination
as to the length of time to complete such repairs within thirty (30) days of the casualty and shall notify Lessee of same as provided
herein. In the event restoration is reasonably estimated by Lessor to take more than one hundred twenty (120) days from the date
of the destruction or casualty, or in the event the above described destruction or casualty should occur within the last two (2)
years of Base Term or any Renewal Term thereof, then Lessor or Lessee shall have the right to terminate Lease. In the event that
Lease is terminated in accordance with the foregoing provisions, Lessee shall surrender within thirty (30) days of notification
Premises and interest therein, and Lessee shall pay rent only to the time of such destruction or casualty.

 

13.02      Repairs and
Abatement.

 

(A)       In case of the total or partial damage
or destruction to Premises, Lessor shall re-enter and repossess the same or any part thereof for the purpose of removing or repairing
the loss or damage and shall proceed with due diligence to the repair of same unless, under the foregoing provisions of this Article
XIII, Lease shall have been terminated.

 

(B)       Rent
during the period of such repairs shall be wholly abated if all of Premises have been thus repossessed by Lessor or otherwise made
unavailable to Lessee for Lessee's reasonable beneficial use and enjoyment or Lessee's conduct of Lessee's usual business therein
for the purpose of repair for the period that Lessee has been dispossessed; and if only a portion of Premises is thus repossessed
or otherwise unavailable to Lessee for Lessee's reasonable beneficial use and enjoyment or Lessee's conduct of Lessee's usual business
therein, Rent shall be abated for such dispossession or unavailability pro rata, based on the portion of Premises thus repossessed
or rendered unavailable during the period of repossession or unavailability. Any Rent abatement under this Article XIII shall commence
as of the date of the destruction.

 

(C)       Lessor
shall not be required to rebuild, repair, or replace any part of the personal property, furniture, equipment, fixtures, and other
improvements which may have been placed by Lessee within Premises, unless the damage thereto is caused by the sole negligence or
willful act or omission or default hereunder of Lessor or Lessor's agents, employees, subtenants, assignees, or independent contractors.
Any insurance which may be carried by Lessor or Lessee for damage to Premises or to any personal property, fixtures, and related
items therein shall be for the sole benefit of the party carrying such insurance and under its sole control; provided, however,
Lessor shall carry insurance for the benefit of Lessor and Lessee sufficient to cover the full replacement cost of the shell of
Premises and an amount equal to the initial Lessee improvements and related allowances set forth in Lease as well as insurance
sufficient to cover Lessee's furniture, equipment, fixtures, personal property, and other improvement that Lessor shall have liability
therefor under Lease.

 

    	 	13	 

     

    

 

(D)       Should
Premises be destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty that is due to the direct negligence or willful or wanton conduct of
Lessee or Lessee's agents, employees, subtenants, assignees or independent contractors, Lessor may repair such damage, and there
shall be no apportionment or abatement of Rent.

 

(E)       Any
insurance carried by Lessor or Lessee for damage to Premises or to any personal property, fixtures and related items therein shall
be for the sole benefit of the party carrying such insurance and under its sole control, and all compensation awarded to a party
under a policy carried by it shall be for the benefit of that party, without any participation by the other party.

 

ARTICLE XIV

CONDEMNATION 

 

14.01      Condemnation.
Lessor, within five (5) days of Lessor's receipt of any notice of the institution of eminent domain or condemnation
proceedings or threat thereof with respect to all or any part of Premises, shall give written notice to Lessee of the same.
Lessee shall have the option to terminate Lease within sixty (60) days after receipt of said notice from Lessor should such
condemnation effect twenty percent (20%) or more of Premises and Lessee determines that such condemnation will interfere with
Lessee's ability to continue its business operations in substantially the same manner or space as existed prior to the
condemnation or deed in lieu thereof. Lessee's obligation under Lease including but not limited to Lessee's obligation to pay
Rent hereunder, shall cease upon Lessee's termination of Lease pursuant to the terms of this Article; however, Lessee shall
be obligated to pay all Rent due on or before the date of termination down through the date Lessee surrenders possession of
Premises to Lessor.

 

14.02      Compensation.
If any portion of Premises is taken through eminent domain or condemnation proceedings, Lessor and Lessee agree that all
compensation paid for Premises, including any value of Lessee's leasehold interest in Premises, will be paid to and be the
property of Lessor. Lessee may independently seek compensation for any of its own trade fixtures, business interruption,
going concern, moving expenses and other items so long as such compensation does not reduce the compensation provided to
Lessor for Premises.

 

ARTICLE XV

DEFAULT 

 

15.01     
Default by Lessee. The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute a default under Lease:

 

(A)       Lessee
fails to pay any installment of Rent within ten (10) business days after such installment is due, and fails to cure such delinquency
within (3) business days after actual receipt of written notice thereof by Lessee from Lessor:

 

(B)       Lessee
fails to pay any additional item or any other charge or sum required to be paid by Lessee hereunder within thirty (30) days after
actual receipt of written notice thereof by Lessee from Lessor; or

 

(C)       Lessee
fails to perform or commence in good faith and proceed with reasonable diligence to perform any of its covenants under Lease within
thirty (30) days after actual receipt of written notice thereof by Lessee from Lessor.

 

    	 	14	 

     

    

 

15.02      Lessor's
Remedies. In the event Lessee is in default pursuant to the conditions set forth in Section 15.01 above, Lessor, during
the continuation of such default, shall have the option of pursuing either of the following remedies:

 

a.       Lessor
may terminate Lease, in which event Lessee immediately shall surrender possession of Premises. All obligations of Lessee under
the Lease, including Lessee's obligation to pay Rent under the Lease, shall cease upon the date of termination except for Lessee's
obligation to pay Rent due and outstanding as of the date of termination.

 

b.       Lessor,
without terminating the Lease, may require Lessee to remove all property from Premises within thirty (30) days so that Lessor may
re-enter and relet Premises to minimize Lessor's damages. In the event Lessee shall fail to remove all property within thirty (30)
days after said demand, Lessor shall be entitled to remove Lessee's property to a storage facility, and all reasonable costs of
such removal and storage shall be deemed Additional Rent. Lessor may enforce all of its rights and remedies under Lease, including
the right to recover Rent as it becomes due hereunder, provided that Lessor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to re-let
Premises and to mitigate its damages under the Lease.

 

c.       Lessor
may accelerate and declare the entire remaining unpaid Rent for the remainder of the term to be immediately due and payable forthwith
and may, at once, take legal action to recover and collect the same, such amount being discounted to present value using the prime
rate published by a national bank acceptable to Lessee and Lessor and such amount reduced by the amount of rent Lessor will receive
by reletting Premises for the remainder of the term or portion thereof.

 

d.       If
Lease is terminated as set forth, Lessor may relet Premises (or any portion thereof) for such rent and upon such terms as Lessor
is able to obtain (which may be for lower or higher rent, and for a shorter or longer term), and Lessee shall be liable for all
damages sustained by Lessor, including but not limited to any deficiency in rent for the duration of Base Term and/ or Renewal
Terms (or for the period of time which would have remained in Base Term and/or Renewal Term in the absence of any termination,
leasing fees, attorneys' fees, other marketing and collection costs, tenant concessions or allowances, and all expenses of placing
Premises in first class rentable condition).

 

e.       Nothing
contained herein diminishes any right Lessor may have under South Carolina law to sue Lessee for damages in the event of any default
by Lessee under Lease, or from pursuing any other remedy available to Lessor at law or in equity.

 

ARTICLE XVI

BANKRUPTCY OR INSOLVENCY

 

16.01      Right
to Terminate. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if termination of Lease shall be stayed by order
of a federal bankruptcy court, or by federal or state statute, then, following the expiration of any such stay, or if Lessee or
Lessee as debtor-in-possession or the trustee appointed in any such proceeding (being collectively referred to as "Lessee"
only for the purposes of this Section) shall fail to assume Lessee's obligations under Lease within the period prescribed therefore
by law or within fifteen (15) days after entry of the order for relief or as may be allowed by the court, or if Lessee shall fail
to provide adequate protection of Lessor's right, title and interest in and to Premises or adequate assurance of the complete
and continuous future performance of Lessee's obligations under Lease, Lessor, to the extent permitted by law or by leave of the
court having jurisdiction over such proceeding, shall have the right, at its election, to terminate Lease on fifteen (15) days'
notice to Lessee and upon the expiration of said fifteen (15) day period Lease shall cease and expire as aforesaid and Lessee
shall immediately quit and surrender Premises as aforesaid. Upon the termination of Lease as provided above, Lessor, without notice,
may re-enter and repossess Premises using such force for that purpose as may be necessary without being liable to indictment,
prosecution or damages therefore and may dispossess Lessee by summary proceedings or otherwise.

 

    	 	15	 

     

    

 

16.02      Adequate
Protection. For the purposes of the Section 16.01, adequate protection of Lessor's right, title and interest in and to
Premises, and adequate assurance of the complete and continuous future performance of Lessee's obligations under Lease, shall
include, without limitation, the following requirements:

 

(A)       that
Lessee comply with all of its obligations under Lease;

 

(B)       that
Lessee pay to Lessor, on the first day of each month occurring subsequent to the entry of such order, or the effective date of
such stay, a sum equal to the amount by which Premises diminished in value during the immediately preceding monthly period, but,
in no event, any amount which is less than the aggregate Rent payable for such monthly period;

 

(C)       that
Lessee continue to use Premises in the manner originally required by Lease;

 

(D)       that
Lessor be permitted to supervise the performance of Lessee's obligations under Lease;

 

(E)       that
Lessee pay to Lessor within fifteen (15) days after entry of such order or the effective date of such stay, as partial adequate
protection against future diminution in value of Premises and adequate assurance of the complete and continuous future performance
of Lessee's obligations under Lease, an additional security deposit in an amount acceptable to Lessor;

 

(F)       that
Lessee has and will continue to have unencumbered assets after the payment of all secured obligations and administrative expenses
to assure Lessor that sufficient funds will be available to fulfill the obligations to Lessee under Lease;

 

(G)       that
if Lessee assumes Lease and proposes to assign the same (pursuant to Title 11 U.S.C. § 365, or as the same may be amended)
to any person who shall have made a bona fide offer to accept an assignment of Lease on terms acceptable to such court having competent
jurisdiction over Lessee's estate, then notice of such proposed assignment, setting forth (x) the name and address of such person,
(y) all of the terms and conditions of such offer, and (z) the adequate assurance to be provided Lessor to assure such person's
future performance under Lease, including, without limitation, the assurances referred to in Title 11 U.S.C. § 365(b)(3),
as it may be amended, shall be given to Lessor by Lessee no later than fifteen (15) days after receipt by Lessee of such offer,
but in any event no later than thirty (30) days prior to the date that Lessee shall make application to such court for authority
and approval to enter into such assignment and assumption, and Lessor shall thereupon have the prior right and option, to be exercised
by notice to Lessee given at any time prior to the effective date of such proposed assignment, to accept, or to cause Lessor's
designee to accept, an assignment of Lease upon the same terms and conditions and for the same consideration, if any, as the bona
fide offer made by such person less any brokerage commission which may be payable out of the consideration to be paid by such person
for the assignment of Lease; and

 

    	 	16	 

     

    

 

(H)       that
if Lessee assumes Lease and proposes to assign the same, and Lessor does not exercise its option pursuant to subsection (vii) above,
Lessee hereby agrees that:

 

(i)       such
assignee shall have a net worth not less than the net worth of Lessee as of Lease Commencement Date, or such Lessee's obligations
under Lease shall be unconditionally guaranteed by a person having a net worth equal to Lessee's net worth as of Lease Commencement
Date;

 

(ii)       such
assignee shall not use Premises except subject to all the restrictions contained in Lease;

 

(iii)       such
assignee shall assume in writing all of the terms, covenants and conditions of Lease including, without limitation, all of such
terms, covenants and conditions respecting the permitted uses and payment of Rent, and such assignee shall provide Lessor with
assurances satisfactory to Lessor that it has the experience in operating stores having the same or substantially similar uses
as the current use for Lease of Premises, in first-class shopping centers, sufficient to enable it so to comply with the terms,
covenants and conditions of Lease and successfully operate Premises;

 

(iv)       such
assignee shall indemnify Lessor against, and pay to Lessor the amount of, any payments which Lessor may be obligated to make to
any mortgagee by virtue of such assignment; and

 

(v)       if
such assignee makes any payment to Lessee, or for Lessee's account, for the right to assume Lease (including, without limitation,
any lump sum payment, installment payment or payment in the nature of rent over and above Rent payable under Lease), Lessee shall
pay over to Lessor one-half of any such payment.

 

ARTICLE XVII

LESSEE'S RIGHT TO SUBLEASE AND ASSIGN

 

17.01     
Sublease. Lessee may not sublet Premises or assign Lease without the prior written consent of Lessor, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If such consent is granted, Lessee shall remain liable to Lessor for the
faithful performance of all of the covenants and conditions, including rental payment, required to be kept and performed under
the terms of Lease. Any assignment by operation of law as a result of a corporate merger or re-organization shall require the previous
written consent of Lessor.

 

17.02     Violation.
Any violation of any provision of Lease, whether by act or omission, by any assignee or subtenant of Lessee, shall be deemed
a violation of such provision by Lessee, it being the intention and meaning of the parties hereto that Lessee shall assume
and be liable to Lessor for any and all acts and omissions of any and all assignees or subtenants of Lessee. If Premises or
any part thereof is sublet or occupied by any person other than Lessee, Lessor, in the event of Lessee's default, may and is
hereby empowered to collect rent from the subtenant or occupant; Lessor may apply the net amount received by it to the rent
herein reserved and no such collection shall be deemed a release of Lessee from the further performance of the covenants
herein contained.

 

    	 	17	 

     

    

 

ARTICLE XVIII

LESSOR'S RIGHT TO MORTGAGE AND
SELL

 

18.01      Estoppel
Certificate. Within five (5) business days after written request therefor by either Lessor or Lessee to the other, or in
the event that upon any sale, assignment, hypothecation of Premises, and/or the land thereunder, or a leasehold loan by Lessee
of its leasehold estate herein, an estoppel statement shall be required from Lessor or Lessee, Lessor and Lessee agree to deliver
to each other, in recordable form, a certificate to any proposed mortgagee or purchaser, certifying that Lease is in full force
and effect, that there are no defenses thereto, or stating those claimed by Lessor or Lessee, and as to such other matters as
may be reasonably requested.

 

18.02      Subordination
and Attornment. Lease, and all rights of Lessee hereunder, shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgage constituting
a first lien on the property of which Premises is a part, or any part thereof, whether such mortgage has heretofore been or may
hereafter be placed upon said property to secure an indebtedness to any savings and loan association, bank, trust company or insurance
company or any other institutional lender, private or public, and to any renewal, modification, consolidation, replacement or
extension of any such mortgage.

 

(A)       During
the term, upon Lessor's request, Lessee shall execute a non-disturbance and subordination agreement wherein Lessee shall agree
that Lease is and shall be subordinate to the lien of any mortgages in any amount or amounts on all or any part of the land or
buildings comprising Premises, or on or against Lessor's interest or estate therein. Lessee covenants and agrees to execute and
deliver upon demand such further instruments evidencing such subordination of Lease to the lien of any such mortgage as may be
required by Lessor within ten (10) days of demand therefor. Notwithstanding anything hereinabove contained, in the event the holder
of any such mortgage shall at any time elect to have Lease constitute a prior or superior lien to its mortgage, then and in such
event upon any such mortgage holder notifying Lessee to that effect, Lease shall be deemed prior and superior in lien to such mortgage
irrespective of whether Lease is dated prior to or subsequent to the date of such mortgage or lease.

 

(B)       If
Lessor enters into one or more mortgages and Lessee is advised in writing of the name and address of the mortgagee under such mortgage,
then Lease shall not be terminated or canceled on account of any default by Lessor in the performance of any of the terms, covenants
or conditions hereof on its part contained, until Lessee shall have given written notice of such default to such mortgagee, specifying
the default, in which event such mortgagee shall have the right to cure Lessor's default as otherwise provided herein and which
cure shall be accepted by Lessee.

 

(C)       Lessee
shall, in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of or in the event of sale under any mortgage made by Lessor
covering Premises, attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure of sale and recognize such purchaser as Lessor under Lease.

 

18.03      Transfer of Lessor's Interest.
Lessor shall have the right to convey, transfer or assign, by sale or otherwise, all or any part of its interest in Lease or Premises
at any time and from time to time and to any person, subject to the terms and conditions of Lease. All covenants and obligations
of Lessor under Lease shall not cease upon the execution of such conveyance, transfer or assignment, but such covenants and obligations
shall run with the land and shall be binding upon any subsequent owner thereof.

 

    	 	18	 

     

    

 

ARTICLE XIX

SECURITY DEPOSIT; TRADE FIXTURES;
SURRENDER OF PREMISES

 

19.01      Security Deposit.
Upon the execution of Lease by Lessee, Lessee shall (i) prepay the monthly Base Rent for the first full calendar month of the first
Lease Year and (ii) deposit with Lessor an amount equal to the monthly Base Rent for the first Lease Year as security for Lessee's
faithful performance of its obligations hereunder (hereinafter "Security Deposit") with Lessor.

 

(A)       If
Lessee fails to pay Rent or other charges due hereunder or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of the Lease, Lessor
may use, apply, or retain all or any portion of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or other charge in default or
for the payment of any other sum to which Lessor may become obligated by reason of Lessee's default, or to compensate Lessor for
any loss or damage with Lessor may suffer thereby. If Lessor so uses or applies all or any portion of the Security Deposit, then
Lessee, within ten (10) days after written demand therefore, shall deposit with Lessor such portion of the Security Deposit used
by Lessor to return the Security Deposit to the full amount herein above stated, and Lessee's failure to do so shall be a material
breach of Lease. Upon any increase in Base Rent during Lease Term or any extension thereof, Lessee shall thereupon deposit with
Lessor an additional amount so that the amount of the Security Deposit shall at all times equal the current Monthly Base Rent.
Lessor shall not be required to either keep the Security Deposit in an interest-bearing account or in an account separate from
its general accounts. If Lessee performs all of Lessee's obligations hereunder, the Security Deposit, less any amounts applied
by Lessor and without payment of interest or other increment for its use, shall be returned to Lessee (or at Lessor's option, to
the last assignee, if any, of Lessee's interest hereunder) at the expiration of the term (and after Lessee has vacated Premises).
No trust relationship is created herein between Lessor and Lessee with respect to Security Deposit.

 

(B)       Lessee
shall not to look to any mortgagee as mortgagee, mortgagee in possession or successor in title to Premises for accountability for
any security deposit required by Lessor hereunder, unless said sums have actually been received by mortgagee as security for Lessee's
performance of Lease. Lessor may deliver the funds deposited hereunder by Lessee to the purchaser of Lessor's interest in Premises,
in the event that such interest is sold, and thereupon Lessor shall be discharged from any further liability with respect to said
security deposit.

 

19.02      Trade
Fixtures. All fixtures, equipment, and every other item of property not permanently attached to Premises and not paid
for by Lessor, and any of such items leased by Lessee under bona fide leases from third party owners, are to remain and be the
property of Lessee and Lessee is to have the right and privilege of removing any and all such property and equipment at any time
during the continuance of Lease or any extensions hereof. In the event the aforesaid equipment is not removed by Lessee by the
termination of Lease, Lessee shall relinquish its rights to said property/equipment. If said equipment is removed, Lessee shall
restore Premises to their condition prior to the removal of such property. It is further understood and agreed that the buildings
and structures installed on Premises by Lessor, may not be removed by Lessee at the termination of Lease.

 

19.02     Surrender.
Lessee shall on the expiration or the sooner termination of Lease term surrender to Lessor Premises, including all buildings,
replacements, changes, additions, and Improvements constructed or placed by Lessee thereon, except for all moveable trade
fixtures, equipment, and personal property belonging to Lessee, broom-clean, free of sub-tenancies, and in good condition and
repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted.

ARTICLE XX

MISCELLANEOUS

 

20.01     Lessor's
Entry; Audit Rights. Lessor shall have the right to enter upon Premises for the purposes of inspection, maintenance,
repair and alteration and to show the same to prospective lessees or purchasers at all reasonable times, with reasonable
notice and without interfering with Lessee's normal business operations, except in cases of emergency. In addition, Lessor
may, upon at least twenty four (24) hours advance notice to Lessee, access and inspect Lessee's books and records, or such
other information as Lessor may reasonably request.

 

20.02      Nature and Extent of Agreement.
This instrument contains the complete agreement of the parties regarding the terms and conditions of Lease of Premises, and there
are no oral or written conditions, terms, understandings or other agreements pertaining thereto which have not been incorporated
herein. This instrument may be amended from time to time by written addendum signed by both parties. This instrument creates only
the relationship of Lessor and Lessee between the parties hereto as to Premises; and nothing herein shall in any way be construed
to impose upon either party hereto any obligations or restrictions not herein expressly set forth. The laws of the State of South
Carolina shall govern the validity, interpretation, performance and enforcement of Lease.

 

20.03     Partial Invalidity.
If any term, covenant or condition of Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder to Lease, or the application of such term, covenant or condition to persons or circumstances
other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each term, covenant or condition
of Lease shall be valid and be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

20.04      Recording.
The Lease shall not be recorded.

 

20.05

20.06      Tenant
Financials. Lessee agrees to deliver to Lessor a copy of Lessee's most recent financial statements within 15 days after

Lessors review of such information Lessor agrees to treat financial information as confidential and shall share such information
only with financial advisors, lenders, purchasers or entities with a legitimate need to know such information.

 

20.07      Notices.
Any notice required to Lessor or Lessee by the terms of Lease shall be given in writing and shall be deemed given and received
