2. TERM
Except as otherwise provided in this Section, the term of this lease shall
commence on September 1, 1998 (the "Anticipated Lease Commencement Date"), or
upon occupancy of the Premises by Lessee, whichever is sooner, and shall expire
on August 31, 1999. If Lessor for any reason whatsoever cannot deliver
possession of the Premises to Lessee by the Anticipated Lease Commencement Date,
neither Lessor nor its employees or agents shall be liable for any damages
caused Lessee thereby. If Lessor's inability to deliver possession of the
Premises to Lessee is caused by Lessee, the lease term and Lessee's obligation
to pay rent shall nevertheless commence on the Anticipated Lease Commencement
Date. If Lessor's inability to deliver possession of the Premises is not caused
by Lessee, the lease term and Lessee's obligation to pay rent shall not commence
until ten (10) days after Lessor has given Lessee notice that the Premises are
ready for delivery to Lessee or upon occupancy of the Premises by Lessee,
whichever is sooner, and the lease term shall be extended by the number of days
elapsed between the Anticipated Lease Commencement Date and the expiration of
said ten-day period or the date of occupancy by Lessee; whichever is sooner;
provided, however, that if Lessor is unable to deliver possession of the
Premises within thirty (30) days after the Anticipated Lease Commencement Date
through no fault of Lessee, Lessee shall have the right to cancel this lease by
giving Lessor written notice to that effect at any time prior to the time Lessor
gives Lessee notice that the Premises are ready for Lessee's possession. If
Lessee so cancels, Lessor shall promptly refund to Lessee, without interests,
any rental and security deposit previously paid by Lessee, and neither party
shall have any further rights against, or obligations or liabilities to, the
other party under or pursuant to this lease or by reason of its cancellation.
3. RENT
Lessee agrees to pay monthly installments of rent in the amount of Two
Thousand, Seven Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($2,750), payable in advance in lawful
money of the United States on the first day of each calendar month during the
term of this lease, with no prior notice or demand and free of all claims or set
offs against Lessor; provided, however that if the term commences on other than
the first calendar day of the month, the rent for that month and for any
fractional part of the month at the end of the term shall be a proportionate
part of the monthly rent then in effect. The sum of $2,750 dollars shall be paid
to Lessor upon execution of this lease by Lessee, of which $2,750 dollars shall
be applied to rent for the September 1998 first month of the term. Lessee hereby
acknowledges that the late payment by Lessee to Lessor of rent will cause Lessor
to incur costs not contemplated by this lease, the exact amount of which will be
impracticable or extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, without
limitation, processing and accounting charges and administrative expenses.
Accordingly, if any installment of rent is not received by Lessor in full within
five (5) days after its due date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal
to six percent (6%) of such overdue amount or five dollars ($5) whichever is
greater. Lessee and Lessor hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair
and reasonable estimate of the cost Lessor will incur by reason of late payment
by Lessee and that the late charge is in addition to and not in lieu of any
interest charges Lessor may be entitled to under this lease or at law.
Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver
of Lessee's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from
exercising any of its other rights and remedies under this lease or at law.
4. SECURITY DEPOSIT
In addition to the sums set forth in Section 3 above, Lessee shall
deposit with Lessor upon the execution of this lease by Lessee the sum of
$2,750, to be held by Lessor, without interest, as a security deposit. Lessor
may claim of (withhold from) the security deposit such amounts as are reasonably
necessary to remedy Lessee's defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damages
to the Prices caused by Lessee, exclusive of ordinary wear and tear, or to clean
the Premises, if necessary, upon termination of Lessee's tenancy. If during the
lease term, all or any portion of the security deposit is claimed by Lessor to
remedy Lessee's defaults in the payment of rent or to repair damages, Lessee,
immediately upon Lessor's written notice, shall pay to Lessor an amount
sufficient to restore the security deposit to the sum set forth above and
Lessee's failure to do so within five (5) days thereafter shall constitute a
material breach of this lease. The security deposit, less any portion thereof
claimed by Lessor pursuant to this Section, shall be returned to Lessee within
fourteen (14) days after expiration or termination of Lessee's tenancy, provided
that Lessee has vacated the Premises, and Lessor will furnish to Lessee an
itemized written statement of the basis for, and the amount of, any security
received and the disposition of such security and shall return any remaining
portion of such security to Lessee.
5. HOLDING OVER
If Lessee remains in possession of the Premises after the expiration of
the term hereof with the consent of the Lessor, such holding over shall not
operate as a renewal of this lease but shall create a month-to-month tenancy,
terminable by either party upon thirty (30) days, written notice to the other,
on the same terms and conditions as contained herein, except that the monthly
rental for each month shall be Lessor's list rate in effect for the Premises as
of the first calendar day of said month.
