                          (9) Destruction of Premises

destruction, and Lessee shall not be liable for any rent beyond that date and

the Premises are damaged but not wholly destroyed by and of such casualties,

were in prior to the casualty within a period of One Hundred Twenty (120) days
from the occurrence of the damage, then Lessee shall have an option to terminate
this lease upon the giving of notice of termination to Lessor within seven (7)

the term, at its sole expense, liability insurance adequate to protect Lessor
and Lessee against any claims arising by the use and occupancy of the Premises
by Lessee.

    Lessor agrees to maintain fire and extended coverage insurance policies upon
the building located upon the Premises during the term in amounts adequate to
afford the restoration of said building in the event of damage by fire and other
similar insurance casualty. Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor in additional rental,
any increase in insurance premiums over and above the amount of premium paid for
fire and extended coverage on the premises for the year 1999. Said additional
rental shall be due and payable upon renewal of said insurance coverage. Lessee

contents located upon said Premises during the term thereof. Parties agree to

assign the premises, the Parties determining at that time whether Lessee shall
be released from the terms hereof entirely, and assignee or sublessee to become
fully liable. The use or occupancy of the Premises by an affiliate or a wholly
owned subsidiary of Lessee shall not constitute assignment and subletting, which
