Landlord shall not be liable under any circumstances for a loss of or injury to property, however occurring, through or in connection with or incidental to failure to furnish any of the foregoing.

Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages or for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and about the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults, safes and files, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency, in order to obtain entry to the Premises without liability to Tenant except for any failure to exercise due care for Tenant’s property. Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said means, or otherwise shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forceable or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof.
18.RECONSTRUCTION. In the event the Premises or the Building of which the Premises are a part are damaged by fire or other perils covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, Landlord agrees to forthwith repair the same; and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction of the rent while such repairs are being made, such proportionate reduction to be based upon the extent to which the making of such repairs shall materially interfere with the business carried on by the Tenant in the Premises.

In the event the Premises or the Building of which the Premises are a part are damaged as a result of any cause other than the perils covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, then Landlord shall forthwith repair the same, provided the extent of the destruction be less than ten (10%) per cent of the then full replacement cost of the Premises or the Building of which the Premises are a part.

Landlord shall not be required to repair any injury or damage by fire or other cause, or to make any repairs or replacements of any panels, decoration, office fixtures, railings, floor covering, partitions, or any other property installed in the Premises by Tenant.

25.GENERAL PROVISIONS.
(i)Plats and Riders. Clauses, plats and riders, if any, signed by the Landlord and the Tenant and endorsed on or affixed to this Lease are a part hereof.

PAGE 6 - OFF. BLDG

Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Landlord by terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or of a sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord’s designee within ten (10) days after written notice that said amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to ten (10%) per cent of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charges represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost that Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment by Tenant.

(xi)Prior Agreements. This Lease contains all of the agreements of the parties hereto with respect to any matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and no prior agreements or understanding pertaining to any such matters shall be effective for any purpose.

This Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder shall not be affected or impaired because the Landlord is unable to fulfill any of its obligations hereunder or is delayed in doing so, if such inability or delay is caused by reason of strike, labor troubles, acts of God, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of the Landlord.
PAGE 7 - OFF. BLDG
(xiii)Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any action or proceeding brought by either party against the other under this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses including the fees of its attorneys in such action or proceeding in such amount as the court may adjudge reasonable in attorneys’ fees.
(xiv)Sale of Premises by Landlord. In the event of any sale of the Building, Landlord shall be and is hereby entirely freed and relieved of all liability under any and all of its covenants and obligations contained in or derived from this Lease arising out of any act, occurrence or omission occurring after the consummation of such sale; and the purchaser, at such sale or any subsequent sale of the Premises shall be deemed, without any further agreement between the parties or their successors in interest or between the parties and any such purchaser, to have assumed and agreed to carry out any and all of the covenants and obligations of the Landlord under this Lease.
(xv)Subordination, Attornment. Upon request of the Landlord, Tenant will in writing subordinate its rights hereunder to the lien of any first mortgage, or first deed of trust to any bank, insurance company or other lending institution, now or hereafter in force against the land and Building of which the Premises are a part, and upon any buildings hereafter placed upon the land of which the Premises are a part, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security thereof.

(xix)Choice of Law. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State in which the Premises are located.
(xx)Signs and Auctions. Tenant shall not place any sign upon the Premises or Building or conduct any auction thereon without Landlord’s prior written consent.
