Section 15.04  If any of Landlord’s insurance policies shall be cancelled or cancellation shall be threatened or the coverage hereunder reduced or threatened to be reduced, or if the premiums on any of Landlord’s insurance policies are increased or threatened to be increased, in any way because of Tenant’s use of the Premises and, if Tenant fails to remedy the cause thereof within 48 hours after notice, Landlord may, at its option, either terminate this Lease or enter upon the Premises and attempt to remedy such condition, and Tenant shall promptly pay the cost thereof to Landlord as additional Rental.  Landlord shall not be liable for any damage or injury caused to any property of Tenant or of others located on the Premises resulting from such entry.  If Landlord is unable to remedy such condition, then Landlord shall have all of the remedies provided for in this Lease in the event of a default by Tenant.

 

Section 15.05  All policies covering real or personal property which either party obtains affecting the Premises shall include a clause or endorsement denying the insurer any rights of subrogation against the other party to the extent rights have been waived by the insured before the occurrence of injury or loss.  Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually waive any rights of recovery against the other for injury or loss due to hazards covered by insurance containing such a waiver of subrogation clause or endorsement to the extent of the injury or loss covered thereby.

 

15

 

Section 15.06  .Every policy of insurance maintained under this Article shall provide cross liability coverage and waiver of subrogation, if available, with respect to the Landlord and the Tenant and all other companies owned, operated or controlled by or affiliated with either of them and with respect to their officers, directors and employees.  Each of the Landlord and the Tenant may require the other to supply evidence thereof from time to time.  If such endorsement may be obtained only by payment of an additional premium, the other party, if it insists upon such an endorsement, shall pay such additional premium.  Every right, exemption from liability, defense and immunity of whatsoever nature applicable to the Landlord or the Tenant or to which either of them is entitled under this Lease shall also be available and shall extend to protect all other companies owned, operated or controlled by or affiliated with either of them and to protect their officers, directors and employees and for such purposes the Landlord or the Tenant, as the case may be, is or shall be deemed to be acting as agent or trustee on behalf of and for the benefit of such companies and persons.

 

Section 15.07.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall be permitted to satisfy any obligation to provide or maintain insurance coverage under a blanket umbrella policy or by a commercially reasonable program of self-insurance.

 

ARTICLE 16 - Damage by Fire or Other Cause

 

Section 16.01  Subject to Sections 16.02 and 16.03 hereof, if the Building is damaged by fire or other casualty so as to affect the Premises, Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord, who shall, but only if the proceeds from Landlord’s insurance available to Landlord (i) are free from collection by Landlord’s mortgagee and (ii) are sufficient, have the damage repaired, including any damages to the Leasehold Improvements, with reasonable speed at the expense of Landlord, subject to delays which may arise by reason of adjustment of loss under insurance policies and to other delays beyond Landlord’s reasonable control.  Provided such damage was not the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, or Tenant’s employees or invitees, an abatement in the Rental hereunder shall be allowed as to that portion of the Premises rendered untenantable by such damage until such time as Landlord determines that such damaged portion of the Premises has been made tenantable for Tenant’s use.

 

Section 16.02  If the Premises are damaged or destroyed by any cause whatsoever, and if, in the Landlord’s reasonable opinion the Premises cannot be rebuilt or made fit for Tenant’s purposes within 180 days of the damage or destruction, or if the proceeds from insurance remaining after payment of any such proceeds to Landlord’s mortgagee are insufficient to repair or restore the damage by destruction,  Landlord may, at its respective option, terminate this Lease by giving the Tenant, within 30 days after such damage or destruction, notice of termination, and thereupon Rental and any other payments for which Tenant is liable under this Lease shall be apportioned and paid to the date of such damage, and Tenant shall immediately vacate the Premises, provided, however, that those provisions of this Lease which are designated to cover matters of termination and the period thereafter shall survive the termination hereof.

 

Section 16.03  If either

 

(a)                                 the Building is damaged or destroyed to the extent that, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion it would not be economically feasible to repair or restore such damage or destruction, or

 

16

 

(b)                                 in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the damage or destruction to the Building cannot be repaired or restored within 120 days after such damage or destruction,

 

Landlord may, at its respective option, terminate this Lease by giving the Tenant, within 60 days after such damage, notice of such termination, thereby requiring Tenant to vacate the Premises 30 days after delivery of the notice of termination, and thereupon Rental and any other payments shall be apportioned and paid to the date on which possession is relinquished and Tenant shall immediately vacate the Premises according to such notice of termination, provided, however, that those provisions of this Lease which are designed to cover matters of termination and the period thereafter shall survive the termination hereof.

 

Section 16.04  No damages shall be payable by Landlord for inconvenience, loss of business, or annoyance arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises, or the Building unless caused by the sole negligence of Landlord or Landlord’s employees, agents, representatives or contractors.  Landlord shall use its best efforts to have such repairs made promptly so as not to unnecessarily interfere with Tenant’s occupancy and use of the Premises, the Building and the Property.

 

Section 16.05  The provisions of this Article shall be considered an express agreement governing any case of damage or destruction of the Building, the Building Standard Leasehold Improvements, the Tenant’s Improvements, the alterations, or the Premises by fire or other casualty.

 

ARTICLE 17 - Condemnation

 

If the Premises shall be taken or condemned, in whole or in part, for any public purpose to such an extent as to render said Premises untenantable, this Lease shall, automatically terminate on the date on which the condemning authority takes possession of the Premise, forthwith terminate.  All proceeds from any taking or condemnation shall belong to and be paid to Landlord, except to the extent of any proceeds awarded to Tenant on account of moving and relocation expenses and depreciation to and removal of Tenant’s physical property.

 

ARTICLE 18 - Assignment and Subletting

 

Section 18.01  If Tenant should desire to assign this Lease or sublet the Premises (or any part thereof), Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least 60 days in advance thereof.  Landlord shall then have a period of 30  days following receipt of such notice within which to notify Tenant in writing that Landlord elects either:

 

(a)                                 to terminate this Lease as to the space so affected by Tenant in its notice, in which event Tenant, subject to the provisions of this Lease which expressly survive the termination hereof, shall be relieved of all further obligations hereunder as to such space;

 

(b)                                 to permit Tenant to assign or sublet such space, subject, however, to the subsequent written approval of the proposed assignee or subtenant by Landlord, and provided

 

17

 

that if the Rental rate agreed upon between Tenant and its proposed subtenant is greater than the Rental rate that Tenant must pay Landlord hereunder, then 100% of such excess Rental shall be considered additional Rental owed by Tenant to Landlord, and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord in the same manner that Tenant pays Annual Base Rental; or

 

(c)                                  to refuse to consent to Tenant’s assignment or subleasing of such space, provided such refusal notwithstanding anything contained in legislation, law or statute, as the same may be amended from time to time, the Landlord, shall not be deemed to be unreasonable in withholding its consent and may arbitrarily withhold its consent until and unless the proposed assignee or sub-lessee shall have agreed in writing with Landlord to assume and perform each of the covenants, obligations, and agreements of the Tenant in this Lease including, without limitation, the provision of the entry of judgment by confession for monetary damages and possession as set forth in Section 24.02.

 

No assignment or subletting by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.  Any attempted assignment or sublease by Tenant in violation of the terms and provisions of this Section 18.01 shall be void.  In no event shall Tenant solicit assignees or sub lessees in other Buildings owned by Landlord, or at less than a fair market rate.

 

In the event of an assignment of this Lease, the assignee, for purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to have adopted the warrants of attorney and confession of judgment, set forth in Section 24.02 as if the assignee has executed the same.

 

Section 18.02  Landlord may sell, transfer, assign, and convey all or any part of the Building and any and all of its rights under this Lease, provided Landlord’s successor in interest assumes Landlord’s obligations hereunder, and in the event Landlord assigns its rights under this Lease, Landlord shall be released from any further obligations hereunder, and Tenant agrees to look solely to Landlord’s successor in interest for performance of such obligations.

 

ARTICLE 19 - Indemnification

 

Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for damage to any property or injury to, or death of, any person in, upon, or about the Property, Building, or the Premises arising at any time and from any and all causes whatsoever other than by reason of the sole negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, employees, representatives, or contractors, and Tenant agrees that it will defend, indemnify, save, and hold harmless, Landlord from and against all claims, demands, actions, damages, loss, cost, liabilities, expenses, and judgments suffered by, recovered from, or asserted against Landlord on account of any damage to any property or injury to, or death of, any person arising from the use of the Property, Building or the Premises by Tenant or its employees or invitees, except such as is caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, employees, representatives, or contractors.  Tenant’s foregoing indemnity obligation shall include reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Landlord.  If Landlord is made a party to any litigation commenced by or against Tenant or relating to this Lease or to the Premises, and provided that in any such litigation, Landlord is not finally adjudicated to be at fault, then Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees

 

18

 

and court costs, incurred by or imposed upon Landlord because of any such litigation, and the amount of all such costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and court costs, shall be a demand obligation owing by Tenant to Landlord, and shall be considered as additional Rental.

 

Except to the extent provided in this Lease, the Landlord shall not be liable or responsible in any way for any loss, damage or injury of any nature whatever that may be suffered or sustained to any persons or property, and in particular, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Landlord shall not be liable for any loss, damage or injury of any nature whatever to any person or property:

 

(a)         Resulting from any defect in the Premise or in the Building; or

 

(b)         Resulting from the condition or arrangement or from the interruption or breakdown of any heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, sprinkler, mechanical or electrical equipment or machinery or of any water, gas, sewage, electrical power or other utility in the Premise, or in the Building in which the Premise are contained or in the Building; or

 

(c)          By reason of the failure to supply adequate drainage, snow or ice removal; or

 

(d)         By reason of steam, smoke, water, rain, snow or other substances leaking, issuing, flowing or escaping into any part of the Premise; or

 

(e)          Resulting from anything done or omitted to be done by the Landlord, its servants, employees, agents, contractors, officers, customers, invitees or licensees, by other occupants of the Building, by persons in the Premise or in the Building, by occupants of adjacent property or by the public.

 

The Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement of rent in respect of any such loss, damage or injury, condition, failure or interruption of service, nor shall the same constitute an eviction.

 

The provisions of this Article 19 shall survive the termination of this Lease with respect to any damage, injury, or death occurring before such termination.

 

ARTICLE 20 - Surrender of the Premises

 

Section 20.01  Upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease for any cause whatsoever, Tenant shall peacefully vacate the Premises in as good order and condition as the same were at the beginning of the Term or may thereafter have been improved by Landlord or Tenant, subject only to reasonable use and wear and fire and casualty thereof, and repairs which are Landlord’s obligation hereunder.

 

Section 20.02  Landlord must approve in writing Tenant’s removal of any Non-Standard Building Improvements, alterations, and physical additions installed in the Premises upon termination of this Lease.    In the event Landlord so elects, and Tenant fails to remove the aforementioned items, Landlord may remove and store same at Tenant’s cost, and Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand, the cost of restoring the Premises to Building Standard, ordinary wear and tear excepted.  Tenant

 

19

 

agrees to remove, at Tenant’s expense, all of its furniture, furnishings, personal property, and moveable trade fixtures by the Expiration Date, and shall promptly reimburse Landlord for the cost of repairing all damage done to the Premises or the Building by such removal.

 

Section 20.03  Should Tenant continue to hold the Premises after the termination of this Lease, whether the termination occurs by lapse of time or otherwise, such holding over shall, unless otherwise agreed to by Landlord in writing, constitute and be construed as a tenancy at will at a monthly Rental equal to two (2)times the monthly Rental Rate for the Premises as of the date of termination, and subject to all of the other terms set forth herein except any right to renew or expand this Lease.  Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all damage which Landlord suffers because of any holding over by Tenant, and Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against all claims made by any other Tenant or prospective Tenant against Landlord resulting from delay by Landlord in delivering possession of the Premises to such other Tenant or prospective Tenant.

 

ARTICLE 21 - Estoppel Certificates

 

Tenant agrees to furnish, when requested by Landlord or the holder of any deeds of trust covering the Building, the Land, or any interest of Landlord therein, a certificate signed by Tenant certifying to such parties as Landlord may designate, to the extent such matters are true, with respect to the terms and status of this Lease and the Premises, stating that Tenant, as of the date of such certificate, has no charge, lien, or claim of offset under this Lease or otherwise against Rentals or other charges due or to become due hereunder; and such other matters as may be requested by Landlord or the holder of any such deeds of trust.  To the extent any such statements requested are not true, Tenant shall explain such facts in writing.  Landlord agrees periodically to furnish, when reasonably requested in writing by Tenant, certificates signed by Landlord containing substantially the same information as described above.

 

ARTICLE 22 - Subordination

 

Section 22.01  This Lease is subject and subordinate to any deeds of trust, mortgages, or other security instruments, and any other supplements or amendments thereto, which presently or may in the future cover the Building and the Land or any interest of Landlord therein, and to any increases, renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, and extensions of any of such deeds of trust, mortgages, or security instruments.  Landlord agrees to use his best efforts to obtain for Tenant a “non-disturbance” agreement from the holder or beneficiary of any deeds of trust, mortgages or other security instruments that in the future may cover the Building and the Land or any interest of Landlord therein.  This provision is declared by Landlord and Tenant to be self-operative and no further instrument shall be required to effect such subordination of this Lease.  Tenant shall, however, upon demand, execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord any further instruments and certificates evidencing such subordination as Landlord may require.  This Lease is further subject and subordinate to utility easements and agreements, covenants, restrictions, and other encumbrances which do not materially adversely effect Tenant’s intended use of the Premises, both existing and future.

 

Section 22.02  Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing provisions of Section 22.01 hereof, any such mortgagee shall have the right at any time to subordinate any such ground or primary

 

20

 

Leases, deeds of trust, mortgages, or other security instruments to this Lease on such terms and subject to such conditions as such mortgagee or ground or primary lessor may consider appropriate in its discretion.  At any time, before or after the institution of any proceedings for the foreclosure of any such deeds of trust, mortgages, or other security instruments, or sale of the Building under any such deeds of trust, mortgages, or other security instruments or termination of any ground or primary Lease, Tenant shall attorn to such purchaser upon any such sale or the grantee under any deed in lieu of such foreclosure and shall recognize such purchaser or grantee as Landlord under this Lease.  The agreement of Tenant to attorn contained in the immediately preceding sentence shall survive any foreclosure sale, trustee’s sale, or conveyance in lieu thereof.  Tenant shall upon demanded at any time, before or after any such sale, execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord’s mortgagee any written instruments and certificates evidencing such attornment as Landlord’s mortgagee may reasonably require.

 

ARTICLE 23 - Parking

 

Landlord shall permit Tenant to use the areas designated by Landlord as “parking area” for parking of vehicles in common with other tenants of the building during the term of this Lease as more fully provided for in Exhibit “C” hereto.

 

ARTICLE 24 - Default and Remedies

 

Section 24.01  The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute an event of default of this Lease:

 

(a)                                 if Tenant fails to pay any Rental by the first day of each month or fails to pay other sums payable by Tenant hereunder by the first day of each month and fails to pay such sums within three (3) days of written notice thereof from Landlord (provided, however, if such event of default shall occur more than once in every 6 months period, Landlord shall not be required to provide any written notice of default, not provide any cure period and an event of default shall occur as and when such Rental or other sums becomes due and payable; or

 

(b)                                 if Tenant shall fail to perform or observe any other term hereof or any of the Rules and Regulations and such failure shall continue for more than 30 days after notice thereof from Landlord.

 

(c)                                  if any petition is filed by or against Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease under any section or chapter of the present or future Bankruptcy Code or under any similar law or statute of the United States or any state thereof;

 

(d)                                 if Tenant or guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease becomes insolvent or is determined to be insolvent or makes a transfer in fraud of creditors;

 

(e)                                  if Tenant fails to take occupancy within 30 days of the commencement date;

 

21

 

(f)                                   if Tenant or guarantor of tenant’s obligations under this Lease, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

 

(g)                                  if a receiver, custodian or trustee is appointed for Tenant or for any of the assets of the Tenant which appointment is not vacated within 30 days of the date of such appointment.

 

Section 24.02  If an event of default occurs, at any time thereafter Landlord may do one or more of the following without any additional notice or demand:

 

(a)                                 Terminate this Lease by giving written notice of the termination to the Tenant, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord.  If Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without notice and without prejudice to any other remedy Landlord may have, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and its effects without being liable to prosecution or any claim for damages therefore; and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all loss and damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination, whether through inability to re-let the Premises or otherwise, including any loss of Rental for the remainder of the Term.  Any such loss of Rental shall be offset by any Rental received by Landlord as a result of re-letting the Premises during the remainder of the Term.

 

(b)                                 Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant’s event of default shall be considered a total breach of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and Tenant immediately shall become liable for such damages for such breach amount, equal to the total of:

 

(1)                                 the costs of recovering the Premises;

 

(2)                                 the unpaid Rental due for the remaining term as of the date of termination, plus interest thereon at a rate per annum from the due date equal to 5% over the Prime Rate.

 

(3)                                 the total Rental and other benefits which Landlord would have received under the Lease for the remainder of the Term, at the rates then in effect, together with all other expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with Tenant’s default.

 

(4)                                 all other sums of money and damages owing by Tenant and Landlord.

 

(c)                                  Enter upon and take possession of the Premises as Tenant’s agent without terminating this Lease and without being liable to prosecution or any claim for damages therefore, and Landlord may re-let the Premises as Tenant’s agent and receive the Rental therefore, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the reasonable cost of renovating and repairing the Premises for a new Tenant or Tenants and any deficiency that may arise by reason of such re-letting; shall not release or affect Tenant’s liability for Rental or for damages.

 

22

 

(d)                                 Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default which is not cured by the Tenant within the period of time provided herein, if any is so provided by the terms of this Lease, the Tenant hereby empowers any Prothonotary or any attorney of any court of record within the United States or elsewhere to appear for the Tenant, with declaration filed, and confess judgment against the Tenant in favor of the Landlord, its successors or assigns, as of any term, for any determined amount to which the Landlord would be entitled as damages under the provisions hereof including also any attorney fees for collection of the same plus ten percent (10%) of the total amount of such damages, together with costs of suit, and the Tenant hereby waives all errors, defects and imperfections in entering said judgment or in any writ, or process, or proceeding thereon or thereto or in anyway touching or concerning the same; and for the confession and entry of such judgment, this Lease or a true and correct copy thereof shall be sufficient warrant and authority.  The authority and power contained herein shall not be exhausted by one exercise thereof, but judgment may be confessed as aforesaid from time to time and as often as there is an occurrence of any Event of Default which is not cured by the Tenant as provided herein, or in the event of an Event of Default as defined herein; and furthermore such authority and power may be exercised during the original and any extension or renewal thereof, or after the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof.  The interest rate of one and one-half percent per month (1.5% per month) shall survive the entering of judgment.

 

(e)                                  When this lease shall be terminated or cancelled by reason of breach of any provision hereof, either during the original term of this lease or any renewal thereof, and also as soon as the term hereby created or any renewal thereof shall have expired, it shall be lawful for any attorney as attorney for Tenant to file an agreement for entering in any court of competent jurisdiction an amicable action and confession of judgment in ejectment against the Tenant and all persons claiming under the Tenant for the recovery by the Landlord of possession of the Premise, for which this lease or a true and correct copy thereof shall be his sufficient warrant, whereupon, if the Landlord so desires, a writ of possession may issue forthwith, without any prior writ or proceedings whatsoever, and provided that if for any reason after such action shall have commenced the same shall be terminated and possession remain in or be restored to the Tenant, the Landlord shall have the right upon any subsequent default or defaults, or upon the termination or cancellation of this lease as hereinbefore set forth, to bring one or more amicable action or actions as hereinbefore set forth to recover possession as aforesaid.

 

(f)                                   Do whatever Tenant is obligated to do under this Lease and may enter the Premises without being liable to prosecution or any claim for damages therefore, to accomplish this purpose.  Tenant shall reimburse Landlord immediately upon demand for any expenses which Landlord incurs in thus effecting compliance with this Lease on Tenant’s behalf, and Landlord shall not be liable for any damages suffered by Tenant from such action, unless caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or otherwise.

 

23

 

Section 24.03  No act or thing done by Landlord or its agents during the Term shall constitute an acceptance of an attempted surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a surrender of the Premises or to terminate this Lease shall be valid unless made in writing and signed by Landlord.  No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any such re-letting or re-entry or taking possession, Landlord may at any time thereafter terminate this Lease for a previous default.  Landlord’s acceptance of partial payment of Rental following an event of default hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of such event of default.  No waiver by Landlord of any breach of this Lease shall constitute a waiver of any other violation or breach of any time of the terms hereof.  Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon a breach hereof shall not constitute a waiver of any other breach of the Lease.

 

Section 24.04  No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Landlord unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Landlord nor shall any custom or practice which may evolve between the parties in the administration of the terms of this Lease be constituted to waive or lessen Landlord’s right to insist upon strict performance of the terms of this Lease.  The rights granted to Landlord in this Lease shall be cumulative of every other right or remedy which Landlord may otherwise have at law or in equity or by statue, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not prejudice or impair the current or subsequent exercise of other rights or remedies.

 

Section 24.05.  The Tenant expressly waives:

 

(a)                 The right to three (3) months notice and ten (10), fifteen (15); or thirty (30) days notice required under certain circumstances by the Landlord and Tenant Act of 1951.

 

(b)                 Landlord and Tenant hereby waive trial by jury in any action or proceeding or counterclaim brought by either party hereto against the other party on any, and every, matter, directly or indirectly arising out of or with respect to the Lease, including, without limitation, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, the use and occupancy by Tenant of the Premise, any statutory remedy and/or claim of injury or damage regarding the Lease, and/or the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, and any emergency.

 

(c)                  The benefit of all laws, now or hereafter in force, exempting any goods on the Demised Premises, or elsewhere, from distraint, levy or sale in any legal proceeding taken by the Landlord to enforce any rights under this Lease;

 

(d)                 The benefit of all laws now made or which may hereafter be made regarding any limitations as to the goods upon which, or the time within which, distress is to be made after the removal of goods and further relieves the Landlord of the obligation or proving or identifying such goods, it being the purpose and intent of this provision that all goods of the Tenant, whether upon the Demised Premises or not, shall be liable to distress for rent;

 

24

 

(e)                  The right to issue a writ of replevin for the recovery of any goods seized under a distress for rent or levy upon an execution for rent, damages or otherwise;

 

(f)                   The right to delay execution on any real estate that may be levied upon to collect any amount which may become due under the terms and conditions of this lease and any right to have same appraised, and the Tenant authorizes any Prothonotary or clerk to enter a writ of execution or other process upon the Tenant’s voluntary waiver and further agrees that said real estate may be sold on a writ of execution of other process;

 

(g)                  All rights under any law, ordinance or statue relating to Landlord and Tenant rights to the extent of hereby authorizing the sale of any goods distrained for rent at any time after seven (7) days from said distraint without appraisement and condemnation thereof;

 

(h)                 Tenant hereby covenants and agrees to pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, promptly upon demand, all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in enforcing any and every provision of this Lease and/or in pursuing any remedy for default of this Lease, regardless of initiation or conclusion of any legal proceeding; said costs and expenses shall include, but not be limited to, all legal fees, attorney’s fees, and all court costs, including the preparation of documents and the filing fee of any and all papers with the courts and the cost of depositions and investigations.

 

ARTICLE 25 - Waiver by Landlord

 

Landlord waives any rights of distraint with respect to Tenant’s trade fixtures and other personal property of Tenant located in the Premises provided under the Landlord and Tenant Act of 1951, 68 P.S. § 250.101 et seq., or otherwise.

 

ARTICLE 26 - Security Deposit

 

The Security Deposit, if any, shall be held by Landlord, without interest, as security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.  Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy, use the Security Deposit to remedy any default in any obligation of Tenant hereunder, and such use shall survive the termination of this Lease, and Tenant shall promptly, in demand, restore the Security Deposit to its original amount.  If Tenant is not in default at the termination of this Lease, any remaining portion of the Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant.  If Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises during the Term, Landlord shall assign the Security Deposit to the transferee who shall then become obligated to Tenant for its return, and thereafter Landlord shall have no further liability for its return.

 

ARTICLE 27 - Attorney’s Fees and Legal Expenses

 

In any action or proceeding brought by either party against the other with respect to this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, investigation costs, and other legal expenses and court costs incurred by such party in such action

 

25

 

or proceeding as the court may find to be reasonable.  The prevailing party shall be the one who receives the net judgment in its behalf at the end of any action.

 

ARTICLE 28 - Notices

In the event of any sale of the Premise, or of a sale or lease of Landlord’s interest in this Lease, Landlord shall be entirely relieved of all obligations hereunder.  “Landlord” shall be deemed to be the Landlord in possession of the Premise from time to time as fee owner or as ground lessee under a ground lease.
