-----------
Lease (the "Extension Option") for two (2) five (5)-year periods (the "Extension

Tenant shall not have the right to exercise either Extension Option if Tenant is

shall be in any default beyond any applicable notice and opportunity to cure
period provided under this Lease at any time following its exercise of the
Extension Option but prior to the expiration of the initial Term of this Lease,
such default shall be deemed to terminate the next arising Extension Option
granted herein. In the event that Tenant properly exercises either Extension
Option provided herein, the leasing of the Premises during the Extension Term
shall be upon the same terms and conditions contained in this Lease except that
(i) Tenant shall, after the exercise of both such Extension Options, have no
further extension or renewal rights hereunder, and (ii) the Fixed Minimum Rent
to be paid by Tenant during each Extension Term shall be adjusted as provided in
Article I(c)(i) of this Lease. If Tenant shall fail to timely provide notice to

-----------------------
Section 8.1. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless
-----------
Landlord and its agents, successors and assigns, from and against all injury,
loss, costs, expense, claims or damage (including attorneys' fees and
disbursements) to any person or property arising from, related to, or in
connection with the use, occupancy, construction, or repair of the Premises or
breach of this Lease by Tenant, or any assignee, sublessee or other party
claiming by, through or under Tenant or any assignee or sublessee. All property
of Tenant and Tenant's agents, employees, licensees, invitees, servants and
contractors in or about the Premises shall be kept and stored at Tenant's sole
risk and Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from any claims arising out of
damage to, or loss of, the same. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Section 8.1, no indemnification or agreement by Tenant to hold Landlord or

indemnify or hold harmless, Landlord or any other party against any loss, cost,
damages or liabilities caused by or resulting directly from the negligence or
-12-
willful misconduct of Landlord or its employees, agents or contractors, nor
shall any waiver of Tenant's rights or any lease of Landlord contained in this
Lease be deemed to release Landlord from responsibility for any such negligence
or willful misconduct.
Section 8.2. Throughout the term of this Lease, Tenant shall maintain
-----------
with responsible companies licensed to do business in the State of Georgia, and
which are rated by A.M. Best Company, Inc. as "A Class XII" or better, and which
are otherwise satisfactory to Landlord, insurance policies naming Landlord and
any mortgagee of Landlord as an additional insured, as their respective
interests may appear, and providing not less than the following protection:
(a) Comprehensive general liability insurance against all claims on
account of bodily injury and property damage for which Tenant may as a result of
its business in the Shopping Center or occupancy of its business in the Shopping
Center or occupancy of the Premises or status as Tenant hereunder, become
liable, with a combined single limit for property damage and bodily injury of
not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate and such
policies shall, with respect to any instance of property damage, include water
damage and sprinkler leakage legal liability in the same policy limits; and
excess or umbrella liability insurance, with limits of $5,000,000 in excess of
the comprehensive general liability limits set forth in this paragraph; and
which policies will further include by endorsement as part of the policy an
agreement indemnifying Landlord in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.1
hereof
(b) Steam boiler and machinery insurance with limits in an amount
equal to one (1) year's Fixed Minimum Rent and additional rent (including,
without limitations Percentage Rent) due under the Lease but in no event less
than $500,000.00 if there is a boiler or other similar equipment in the
Premises:
(c) Property insurance protecting against all perils listed in the so
called "special" or "all risk" form, and containing such other endorsements as
Landlord may from time to time reasonably require, covering all of Tenant's
stock in trade, fixtures, personal property of Tenant, and all installations and
improvements made by Tenant (including tenant's installations and improvements
made pursuant to Exhibit C) in, or, or about the Premises in an amount not less
than ninety percent (90%) of the then full insurable value (actual replacement
cost without deduction for physical depreciation), such value to be determined,
at Tenant's expense, at least once every two (2) years, but in any event in an
amount sufficient to prevent Landlord and Tenant from becoming co-insurers under
provisions of the applicable policy. Notwithstanding anything in the Lease to
the contrary, in no event shall Landlord be responsible for damage to Tenant's
stock in trade, fixtures or other personal property of Tenant located in or
about the Premises.
(d) If the nature of Tenant's business is such as to place any or all
of its employees under the coverage of local worker's compensation or similar
statutes, workers' compensation or similar insurance affording coverage in
compliance with any and all legal and governmental requirements;
(e) Such other reasonable amount of insurance against other insurable
hazards as from time to time are commonly insured against in the case of
premises similarly situated and similarly used; provided Landlord gives Tenant
reasonable notice of the type of required insurance.
Section 8.3. Tenant's policies of insurance described above shall
-----------
provide that, in the case of fire or other casualty affecting the Premises, any
loss shall be adjusted jointly with Landlord and Tenant. The insurance policies
or duly executed certificates thereof, together with satisfactory evidence that
the premium has been paid, shall be deposited with Landlord on or before the day
Tenant begins Tenant's Work and thereafter evidence of continuing insurance and
premium payment shall be given to Landlord not less than thirty (30) days prior
to the expiration date of each policy required to be in force hereunder. All
such policies shall provide that, in the event of a loss, any proceeds due
Landlord as an insured shall not be affected by reason of willful or negligent
acts or
-13-
Tenant or Landlord or their respective employees, licensees, invitees or
permits. In addition, provided that Tenant is not then in default under this
Lease, the event of a casualty or loss, any proceeds from Tenant's "all risk"
insurance covering Tenant's property shall be made available to Tenant for the
performance of Tenant's Work. All insurance carried by Tenant shall be in form
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and shall provide that the policy shall not
be subject to cancellation, termination or change except after at least thirty
(30) days prior written notice to the Landlord and to any mortgagee of Landlord
to whom a loss thereunder may be payable. If Tenant fails to maintain the
required insurance, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, obtain such
insurance, and Tenant shall pay Landlord the premium upon demand.
Section 8.4. If, as a result of Tenant's use or occupancy of any
-----------
portion of the Shopping Center, or from any vacancy of the Premises, Landlord is
charged any increase in premium on insurance carried by Landlord, Tenant shall
promptly pay on demand the amount of such increase or reimbursement and the
amount so paid shall not be considered an increase in Landlord's insurance
premiums for the purpose of Section 17.3. In determining whether increased
premiums are attributable to Tenant, a schedule or "make-up" rate of the
organization issuing the insurance companies shall be conclusive evidence of the
several items and charges which make up the insurance rates and premiums on the
Premises and the Shopping Center. Landlord agrees that as of the date of this
Lease, Tenant's proposed use of the Premises for the purposes specifically
permitted in Article I, Section (i)(1) of this Lease shall not increase
Landlord's insurance rates or cause Landlord's insurance to be canceled if
Tenant's use of the Premises for such permitted purpose is conducted in
accordance with all laws applicable thereto.
Section 8.5. Subject to and in consideration of Tenant's compliance
-----------
with its obligations under Section 17.3 hereof, Landlord shall keep the Premises
and the building of which they are a part insured against loss or damage by
fire, with the usual extended coverage endorsements, in amounts equal to at
least ninety percent (90%) of the insurable value thereof above foundations and
so as to prevent the application of co-insurance provisions. Such insurance
shall cover improvements in the Premises owned by Landlord to the extent that
the same are customarily insurable as part of the realty, but shall not include
the cost of restoration of Tenant's trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings or
decorative effects.
Section 8.6. Tenant agrees to use and occupy the Premises and to use
-----------
all other portions of the Shopping Center which it is permitted to use by the
terms of this Lease at its own risk, and hereby (for itself and all persons
claiming under, by or through Tenant) releases Landlord, its agents, servants,
contractors and employees, from all claims and demands of every kind resulting
from any accident, damage or injury occurring therein, except those claims
arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its servants,
agents, contractors and employees. Landlord shall have no responsibility or
liability for any loss of, or damage or injury to, fixtures, improvements,
Tenant's Work or other personal property of Tenant, or any of them from any
source whatsoever, except for liability arising from the negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord, its agents, contractors and employees. Tenant agrees to
name Landlord as an additional insured in any insurance policy obtained by
Tenant in connection with the Premises or the Shopping Center and to furnish
Landlord with a duplicate original or certificate of such policy in accordance
with Section 8.4 hereof
Section 8.7. The parties hereby mutually waive any rights they may
-----------
have against each other to recover for loss or damage to property to the extent
that such loss or damage is covered by their respective insurance policies. In
addition, all insurance policies carried by either party covering the Premises,
including but not limited to contents, fire and casualty insurance, shall
expressly waive any right on the part of the insurer against the other party for
damage to or destruction of the Premises resulting from the acts, omissions or
negligence of the other party.

ARTICLE IX
----------
FIRE AND OTHER CASUALTIES
-------------------------
Section 9.1. If the Premises should be damaged during the Term by
-----------
fire or any other casualty, Landlord shall (except as hereinafter provided)
repair the same.
Section 9.2. If, however, the Premises or the buildings comprising
-----------
the Stores should be damaged or destroyed:
(a) by fire or other casualty (i) to the extent of twenty-five
percent (25%) or more of the cost of replacement of either thereof, or
(ii) so that twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Gross Leasable
Area contained in either thereof shall be rendered untenantable; or
(b) by any casualty other than those covered by standard fire and
extended coverage insurance policies; or
(c) the Premises shall be damaged in whole or in part during the
last two years of the Term or, if the Term is extended, during the
last two years of the Term as extended; or
(d) if Landlord's mortgagee shall require that the insurance
recovery arising from the damage or destruction be applied against the
principal balance due on such mortgage;
then, in any such event, Landlord may, at its option, either terminate this
Lease or elect to repair the Premises, and Landlord shall notify Tenant as to
its election within sixty (60) days after the settlement of the casualty loss
with the insurer, or the occurrence of the damage in the event of an uninsured
casualty. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, then the Term hereof
shall end at the end of the calendar month in which such election is made. If
Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, but Landlord has failed to
repair or restore the Premises within one hundred eighty (180) days following
Landlord's receipt of insurance proceeds therefor, subject to force majeure,
then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice to
Landlord prior to Landlord's substantial completion of such repairs or
restoration. If neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to terminate this Lease as
provided above, then Landlord shall perform such repairs and rebuildings as set
forth in Section 9.3 hereof and Tenant shall perform such repairs and rebuilding
as set forth in Section 9.4 hereof, and the Term shall continue without
interruption and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect.
Section 9.3. Landlord's obligation to repair shall be limited to the
-----------
repair and replacement as necessary of all exterior components of the Premises
to substantially the same condition as existed on the Commencement Date to the
extent covered by the proceeds attributable to the Premises from Landlord's
insurance policies. All work to be performed by Landlord shall be done in such
manner that upon completion thereof, that portion of the Premises repaired or
rebuilt shall function substantially the same as prior to the date of the
casualty and shall contain substantially the same amount of Gross Leasable Area
as immediately prior to the damage or destruction.
Section 9.4. Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense (including the
-----------
use of any instance proceeds then available under Section 8.3 hereunder), repair
and restore the entire Premises to the extent not repaired by Landlord in
accordance with the provisions of Article VI hereof. Tenant agrees to commence
the performance of its work when notified by Landlord that the work to be
performed by Landlord has proceeded to the point where the work to be performed
by Tenant can in accordance with good construction practices, then be commenced,
and Tenant shall complete such work within the number of days as set forth in
Article I(b)(ii) hereof.
Section 9.5. All insurance proceeds payable with respect to the
-----------
Premises, excluding the proceeds payable to Tenant pursuant to Section 8.3
hereof, shall belong to
-15-
and shall be payable to Landlord. If Landlord does not elect to terminate this
Lease as provided in this Article IX, Landlord shall, subject to the prior
rights of the holder of any mortgage which is a lien against the Premises or the
Shopping Center, disburse and apply any insurance recovery as follows: first, to
be applied against the cost to Landlord of restoration and rebuilding of
Landlord's Work; second, to be paid to Tenant to the extent of the cost of
Tenant's restoration of the Premises pursuant to Section 9.4 hereof, not
including furniture, furnishings and Movable Trade Fixtures, or repairs covered
by insurance maintained by Tenant; and third, the balance of any insurance
recovery shall belong to and be the exclusive property of Landlord. Landlord
shall retain a reputable, local independent insurance adjuster for the purpose
of apportioning the balance of Landlord's insurance recovery among affected
tenants in the event that Premises other than the Premises are damaged or
destroyed as a result of the insured casualty. The findings of the adjuster
shall be binding and conclusive upon all affected tenants. The cost of such
adjuster's services shall be charged and payable out of the balance of insurance
recovery. The aforesaid payment to Tenant shall be made after Tenant's
restoration of the Premises has been reasonably satisfactorily completed and
after Tenant has reasonably satisfied Landlord that such work will result in no
liens against the Premises or the Shopping Center.
Section 9.6. Commencing with the second Lease Year, and annually
-----------
thereafter, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with a written certification of the
replacement cost of Tenant's Work (as originally certified by Tenant pursuant to
Section 6.4 hereof) and the actual cost of any improvements to the Premises made
by Tenant not covered in any previous certification, which Landlord would be
obligated to insure under Section 8.5 hereof. In the event of Tenant's failure
to furnish such certification, Landlord shall be entitled to rely on the last
certification furnished to it by Tenant for the purposes of fulfilling its
obligation under Sections 8.5 and 9.5 hereof. Landlord shall have the right to
contest Tenant's certification and in the event the parties are unable to
resolve their differences, the matter shall be referred to Landlord's insurance
carrier whose decision shall be final and binding on both parties.
Section 9.7. During any period in which the Premises are damaged by
-----------
reason of any fire or other casualty, and there is substantial interference with
the operation of Tenant's business in the Premises, the Fixed Minimum Rent shall
xxxxx on the basis of the degree of use of the Premises lost to Tenant as a
result of such casualty. In the event of partial damage to the Premises, the
abatement of Fixed Minimum Rent shall be based on the percentage of the Gross
Leasable Area of the Premises that is damaged or destroyed bears to the total
Gross Leasable Area of Premises. Any such abatement shall continue for the
period commencing with the date of casualty resulting in substantial
interference with the operation of Tenant's business in the Premises and ending
sixty (60) days after completion by Landlord of such repair work as Landlord is
required to perform under the provisions of this Article IX and the delivery of
the repaired Premises to Tenant.

maintenance agreement with a heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems
repair company reasonably acceptable to Landlord on all HVAC equipment on the
Premises and provide a copy of said maintenance agreement to Landlord no later
than twenty (20) business days after the date Tenant takes possession of the
Premises. Tenant hereby acknowledges and accepts the obligations of
maintenance, repair and, if necessary, replacement of the HVAC system for the

term of this Lease, Tenant shall only be obligated to make reasonable repairs
to, but not to replace, the HVAC system for the Premises.
Section 10.4. Tenant shall be entitled to make alterations and
------------
modifications to the interior of the Premises at Tenant's expense; provided,
however, that in the event the anticipated cost for any such alterations and/or
modifications is equal to or greater than $250,000.00, Landlord's prior written
approval, which approval Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay, to
such alterations and/or modifications is required. Tenant shall provide
Landlord with copies of all plans for any alterations or modifications to the
interior of the Premises. In the event the Tenant desires to make any
alterations or modifications to the exterior of the Premises, to any structural
portions or elements of the Premises or to any utility systems within the
Premises (including the HVAC), regardless of the cost, Tenant shall be required
to obtain Landlord's prior written approval to any such alterations or
modifications.
Section 10.5. If Tenant shall fail to make any of the repairs

Section 11.2. All compensation awarded or paid upon a total or
------------
partial taking of the Premises including the value of the leasehold estate
created hereby shall belong to and be the property of Landlord without any

------------
totally) taken or damaged by condemnation to the extent that the Gross Leasable
Area of the Premises is reduced by fifteen percent (15%) or more, Tenant shall
have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord. If Tenant
elects not to so terminate this Lease or if such taking or damage to the
Premises is less than fifteen percent (15%) of the Gross Leasable Area of the
Premises, Landlord shall promptly prepare and restore the Premises at Landlord's
expense to at least as good a condition as it existed prior to such damage and

------------
Shopping Center such Common Areas, which may in part consist of areas made

non-exclusive right during the Term to use (for its intended purposes) the

to discourage non-customer use, to use portions of the Common Areas while
engaged in making additional improvements or repairs or alterations to the
Shopping Center; to transfer, in whole or in part, any of Landlord's rights or

are defined in Article II hereof, it being understood and agreed that the first
one hundred eighty (180) days of the Term shall be free of any Common Area
Charges to Tenant). Landlord shall notify Tenant from time to time of the
amount which Landlord estimates will be the amount of the Common Area Charge for
the upcoming calendar year- and Tenant shall pay such amount in equal monthly
installments in advance on or before the first day of each month. On or before
the March I immediately following the end of such calendar year, Landlord shall
submit to Tenant a statement showing the Common Area Charge to be paid by Tenant
with respect to the amount thereof theretofore paid by Tenant during such
calendar year, and the amount of the resulting balance due thereon, or
overpayment thereof, as the case may be. Appropriate adjustment shall thereupon
be made between the parties, on demand, on the basis of such statement. Each
statement shall be final and conclusive between the parties, their successors
and assigns, as to the matters set forth therein, if no objection is raised with
respect thereto within ninety (90) days after submission of each statement to
Tenant. Tenant shall have the right to examine Landlord's books and records at
the offices of Landlord during ordinary business hours not more than once in
each calendar year for the purpose of verifying the matters set forth in the
statement for the immediately preceding calendar year; provided that Landlord
shall promptly reimburse Tenant in cash for any overcharge and overpayment
revealed by such audit, and if such overcharge exceeds three percent (3%) of the
actual amount of Common Area Charges which would have been charged to Tenant,
Landlord shall also reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost of Tenant's audit.

in conjunction with the merger or sale of substantially all of the assets of

Tenant resulting in the effective change in control of Tenant. Consent to an
assignment of this Lease shall in no way be deemed to relieve Tenant of its
obligations under the terms of this Lease.
Section 13.2. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article XIII
------------
to the contrary, subject to the limitations hereinafter provided, Tenant shall
have the right to sublease approximately 15,000 square feet of the Premises to a
"Permitted Sublessee" (as hereinafter defined). As used herein, a "Permitted
Sublessee" shall be a sublessee (a) whose use does not conflict with the then
primary use of any tenant of the Shopping
-19-
Center; (b) whose use does not violate any exclusive use rights of any tenants
of the Shopping Center at the time of the sublease; (c) who has a financial
statement and tangible net worth of not less than $10,000,000 (as adjusted for
inflation based on the value of the dollar on January 1, 1997); and (d) has not
less than twelve (12) retail stores or units then currently operating in the
United States. In the event of any sublease to a Permitted Sublessee, any sales
from the portion of the Premises to be occupied by the Permitted Sublessee shall
be included within Tenant's Gross Sales for the purposes of determining Tenant's
Percentage Rent obligations under this Lease, and Tenant shall be required to
report the Gross Sales of the Permitted Sublessee in accordance with its
obligations under Article XV of this Lease.
In the event of any default of this Lease by Tenant, which default is
not cured by Tenant prior to the expiration of any applicable notice and
opportunity to cure period, then provided Landlord has received written notice
of the Permitted Sublessee and its address for the purpose of notices, prior to
the exercise by Landlord of any rights or remedies under this Lease, or at law
or in equity, Landlord shall promptly give the Permitted Sublessee written
notice that Tenant has so failed to cure a default under this Lease, and the
Permitted Sublessee shall have the one (1)-time right (but not the obligation),
within ten (10) days following receipt of such written notice to notify Landlord
in writing that the Permitted Sublessee elects to (i) assume the obligations of
"Tenant" under the Lease; (ii) cure all outstanding defaults of Tenant,
including without limitations the payment of all outstanding Rent (if any) due
from Tenant under the Lease; and (iii) enter into a new lease with Landlord that
is identical to this Lease other than the change in use of the Premises to
accommodate the Permitted Sublessee's use thereof within five (5) days following
the Permitted Sublessee's exercise of such right to lease the entire Premises;
provided, however, that such new lease shall be deemed a sublease of the
Premises from Tenant until such time as Landlord has recovered legal possession
of the Premises from Tenant and the original Lease between Landlord and Tenant
has been terminated.
Section 13.3. In the event that, subject to the terms of Sections
------------
13.1 and 13.2 above, Tenant shall assign this Lease or sublet any portion of the
Premises or request the consent of Landlord to any assignment or subletting, or
if Tenant shall request the consent of Landlord for any act that Tenant proposes
to do, then Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees and
processing fees (such fees not to exceed $1,000.00 for each request for consent)
incurred in connection therewith.

PERCENTAGE RENT
---------------
Section 15.1. (a) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, within thirty (30)
------------
days after the end of each calendar month in each Lease Year of the Term, an
interim statement showing separately the amount of Gross Sales for the preceding
month. Simultaneously with delivery of the monthly interim statement for the
final month of each quarter in a calendar year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as
the installment of Percentage Rent for such Lease Year Quarter the amount, if
any as set forth in subparagraph (d) of Article I for the Lease Year through the
Quarter in question, less the Minimum Rent actually paid by Tenant to Landlord
in such Lease Year. In each Lease Year Quarter, Tenant is to be credited with
the amount of Percentage Rent reported in prior Quarters of the subject Lease
Year, so that Tenant will only pay quarterly installments of Percentage Rent on
excess sales made during the immediately preceding Lease Year Quarter.
(b) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the
end of each Lease Year an annual statement showing Gross Sales for the Lease
Year in question and also showing the amounts, if any, excluded from Gross Sales
under the provisions of Section 15.2. On delivery of the annual statement,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount due as the installment of Percentage
Rent for the last Quarter of such Lease Year. In the event that the annual
statement shows any change in Gross Sales from that which was previously
reported in the monthly interim statements for such Lease Year, then appropriate
adjustment of the total amount due as Percentage Rent for such Lease Year will
thereupon be made.
(c) Each interim statement shall be certified to be correct by a
principal executive officer of Tenant. Each annual statement shall be certified
to be correct by a principal executive officer or public accountant.
Section 15.2. The term "Gross Sales" as used herein shall mean the
------------
total amount in dollars of the actual sales price, whether for cash or on credit
or partly for cash and partly on credit, of all sales of merchandise and
services and all other receipts of business conducted in or from the Premises,
including all mail or telephone orders received or filled at the Premises, and
including all deposits not refunded to purchaser, orders taken, although said
orders may be filled elsewhere, and sales by any sub-lessee, concessionaire or
licensee in the Premises. There shall not be deducted from such aggregate of
monies received any income, excess of profit, franchise, or other taxes based
upon or measured by Tenant's income and no deduction shall be allowed for
uncollected or uncollectible credit accounts. Gross Sales shall not, however,
include any sums collected and paid out for any sales or excise tax imposed by
any duly constituted governmental authority, or money collected for charity, nor
shall it include the exchange of merchandise between the stores of Tenant, if
any, where such exchange of merchandise is made solely for the convenient
operation of the business of Tenant, nor the amount of returns to shippers or
manufacturers, nor the amount of any credit refund made upon any sale where the
merchandise sold, or some part thereof, is thereafter returned by the purchaser
and accepted by Tenant, nor sales of fixtures, which are not a part of Tenant's
stock in trade. Each and every sale made by a Concessionaire, sublessee or
assignee shall be deemed to be a sale made by Tenant for the purposes of this
Section; but nothing contained herein (or in any other Section of this Lease
which governs the conduct or operation of any Concessionaire, sublessee or
assignee or the use of any mechanical or other vending device) shall be deemed
to be a consent to the occupancy of any space in the Premises by a
Concessionaire, sublessee or assignee or to the use in, at or on the Premises of
any mechanical or other vending device, in violation of the provisions of this
Lease.
Section 15.3. (a) Tenant shall keep and maintain (and shall cause the
------------
Permitted Sublessee and any Concessionaire, sublessee or assignee to keep and
maintain) at all times during the Term in the Premises or at Tenant's principal
corporate office full, true and accurate books of account and records from which
Gross Sales for each Lease Fiscal Year can be determined (including, but not
limited to, all federal, state and local tax
-22-
returns of Tenant and each Concessionaire, sublessee or assignee; records of
daily bank deposits of the entire receipts from transactions in, at, on or from
the Premises; sales slips; daily dated cash register tapes; sales books;
duplicate bank deposit slips; and bank statements;) which shall be conveniently
segregated from other business matters of Tenant and each Concessionaire,
sublessee or assignee. Such records with respect to any Lease Year shall be so
kept and maintained for at least twenty-four (24) calendar months after the end
of such Lease Year.
(b) Landlord, by its servants, agents or employees, shall have the
right at any time during regular business hours, during each Lease Year, but not
more than once in any Lease Year (unless Tenant is delinquent in delivering to
Landlord the interim and annual statements pursuant to Sections 15.1 (a) and (b)
herein), and during the twenty-four (24) month period following each Lease Year,
to spot check, inspect, verify and audit all such books and records and all
other papers and files of Tenant and each Concessionaire, sublessee or assignee
relating to Gross Sales for such Lease Year. Tenant and each Concessionaire
shall, on request of Landlord, make all such books, records, papers and files
available for such examination.
(c) If an audit made after the end of any Lease Year by or on behalf
of Landlord shows that the amount of Gross Sales stated on Tenant's annual
statement for such Lease Fiscal Year was understated by an amount in excess of
one percent (1%) of Gross Sales, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the
reasonable cost of such audit. Landlord's rights to have an audit made with
respect to any Lease Year shall expire at the end of the twenty-four (24) month
period following each Lease Year; but if at any time Landlord shall contend that
fraud may exist with respect to any of Tenant's reports with respect to Gross
Sales for any Lease Year, then the twenty-four (24) month inspection and audit
period shall be deemed to be extended until such contention of Landlord has been
finally determined and, during the extended period, Tenant shall keep all books,
records, papers and files relating to Gross Sales for the Lease Year or Years in
connection with which Landlord has raised contentions of fraud at the place or
places set forth in this Section 15.3 and shall make same available to Landlord
as provided in this Section 15.3 during the entire extended period.
ARTICLE XVI
-----------
UTILITIES
---------
Section 16.1. From and after the day on which Landlord delivers the
------------
Premises to Tenant for Tenant's Work, Tenant shall pay to the appropriate
utility provider all bills for water, gas, electricity, fuel, light, heat and
power furnished to or used by Tenant on or about the Premises, and all sewerage
disposal or sewerage service charges for the Premises. If any utilities are
provided to the Premises by Landlord and are payable by Tenant under the terms
of this Lease, such utilities shall be provided without xxxx-up at the same rate
at which Landlord purchases the same from the utilities supplier. If Tenant
does not pay the above bills, Landlord may after providing five (5) business
days' written notice and opportunity for Tenant to pay such bills, pay the same,
and such payment shall be additional rent for the Premises. Landlord may elect
to furnish one or more utility service to Tenant, and, in such event, Tenant
shall purchase such services from Landlord and shall pay, as additional rent,
the charges for such services by Landlord which, in no event, shall exceed the
rates which would be charged for the identical service furnished by the local
public utility company. After reasonable written notice to Tenant, Landlord may
discontinue furnishing any service, without obligation other than to connect the
Premises to the appropriate public utility.
ARTICLE XVII
------------
ADDITIONAL CHARGES
------------------
Section 17.1. It is the purpose and intent of Landlord and Tenant
------------
that the return to Landlord under this Lease shall be absolutely net to Landlord
so that the share of
-23-
taxes, insurance premiums and Common Area Charges (Article XII) attributable to
the Premises shall be the obligation of Tenant rather than Landlord. To the
extent Tenant's share of taxes is payable to Landlord, Landlord, at Landlord's
election, shall be deemed to be the agent for remitting timely payment to the
appropriate taxing authorities, or Landlord may require Tenant to make its
payment of taxes directly to the appropriate taxing authorities or to such other
party as Landlord may designate from time to time.
Section 17.2. (a) Tenant covenants and agrees to pay to Landlord as
------------
additional rental hereunder, or such other party as Landlord shall designate by
written notice to Tenant, Tenant's Pro Rata Share (as defined in Article II
hereof) of all real property taxes (and/or income or other forms of taxes, to
the extent that such other taxes are levied in lieu of or in addition to or as
substitutes for real property taxes); taxes on rents and assessments, regular or
special, levied against the Premises and the Shopping Center, and all costs
reasonably incurred in any proceeding brought by Landlord to reduce taxes
(hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). In any abatement of Taxes of the Shopping
Center which have been previously paid during the term Tenant shall receive a
pro rata share of such abatement. There shall be excluded from the foregoing
all Taxes attributable to those parcels in the Shopping Center (i) not owned or
ground leased by Landlord, or (ii) which are separately assessed for tax
purposes and which Taxes are separately paid by the tenants or occupants of such
parcels. During each Lease Year, other than the first Lease Year, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord or such other party in twelve (12) equal monthly installments on
the first day of each month thereof, Tenant's Pro Rata Share of estimated Taxes
for such Lease Year based on the total Taxes for the preceding Lease Year (or
the preceding twelve (12) months if the preceding Lease Year is less than twelve
(12) months).
During the first Lease Year Tenant shall pay as Tenant's Pro Rata
Share of Taxes on the first day of each month thereof a sum equal to an amount
estimated by Landlord to be Tenant's Pro Rata Share of the Taxes for the first
Lease Year divided by the number of months in such Lease Year. If the
Commencement Date is other than the first day of a calendar month, then the
installment of Taxes due for the first month shall be pro-rated on the basis of
a thirty (30) day month.
(b) The amount payable by Tenant for Taxes in each Lease Year,
including the first Lease Year, shall be subject to adjustment at such time
(during or subsequent to each Lease Year) as Landlord submits a statement to
Tenant following Landlord's having ascertained the actual amount of Taxes due
for each Lease Year. The adjustment, if requiring an additional payment, shall
be payable by Tenant within ten (10) days after submission of the aforementioned
statement by Landlord; if in favor of Tenant, the adjustment shall be credited
against the next accruing monthly installments of Taxes due from Tenant. If any
such statement of actual Taxes is submitted to Tenant during the Lease Year for
which such statement is applicable, then the monthly installments of Taxes
accruing during such Lease Year subsequent to submission of the statement shall
be adjusted, based on the actual amount of Taxes due for such Lease Year.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraphs (a) and (b) of
this Section 17.2, Landlord may require Tenant to pay Tenant's Pro Rata Share of
Taxes in lump sum payments or in other than monthly installments, if such
payment is required by the taxing authorities or by Landlord's mortgagee(s).
Section 17.3. In consideration of Landlord's agreement as contained in
------------
Section 8.5 hereof, Tenant covenants and agrees to pay to Landlord as Additional
Rent Tenant's Pro Rata Share (as defined in Article II) of all fire and extended
coverage, commercial general liability, loss of rent and any other insurance
premiums payable with respect to coverage of the Premises, the Common Areas and
other land and buildings in the Shopping Center which Landlord elects to
maintain. During each Lease Year Tenant's Pro Rata Share of insurance premiums
shall be paid in twelve (12) equal monthly installments on the first day of each
month thereof, except during the first Lease Year when such payments shall be
made in equal monthly installments corresponding to the number of months in such
Lease Year.

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
---------------------
Section 18.1. If Tenant shall default (i) in the payment of any Rent,
------------
or any other sum or charge due to Landlord or any other party under this Lease
including, without limitation, Common Area Charges and Tenant's Pro Rata Share
of Taxes and insurance premiums, within five (5) days after Tenant's receipt of
written notice from Landlord to Tenant of non-receipt of any such payment; or
(ii) in the full, faithful and punctual performance of any other covenant,
agreement, provision or condition on the part of Tenant to be performed, for any
period of time in excess of five (5) days after the same is required to have
been performed under the provisions of this Lease, or (iii) except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, if the Premises become vacant or deserted or if any
execution or attachment shall be issued against Tenant or any of Tenant's
property, whereupon the Premises shall be taken or occupied, or attempt made to
do so, other than by Tenant; or (iv) if Tenant or any Guarantor or assignee of
this Lease shall make any assignment for the benefit of creditors or be
dissolved, voluntarily or involuntarily, or if a receiver or trustee of Tenant
or Guarantor or any assignee of this Lease and/or its property shall be
appointed in any proceedings and such appointment, if made in proceedings
instituted by Tenant, Guarantor or any assignee of this Lease, shall not be
vacated within ten (10) days after it has been made, or if made in proceedings
instituted by other than Tenant, Guarantor or any assignee of this Lease, shall
not be vacated within thirty (30) days after it has been made, then in any such
event, Tenant shall forthwith pay Landlord any Rent and other sums then due to
Landlord under this Lease plus all costs of collection including attorney's fees
of fifteen percent (15%) of the Rent and other sums then due hereunder, and, in
addition, Landlord shall have the right, at its option, without any further
demand or notice, to re-enter the premises and eject all persons therefrom,
using all necessary force so to do, and either:
(a) declare the Term under this Lease to be at an end, in which event
the Term shall expire, cease and so come to an end and Tenant shall immediately
pay Landlord, as liquidated damages, a sum equal to the amount, if any, by which
the then cash value of the total of the Rent reserved, and of the moneys, costs,
charges and expenses required to be paid by Tenant under the provisions of this
Lease, for the period which would otherwise have been the balance of the Term,
exceeds the then cash value of the fair and reasonable rental value of the
Premises for the same period, and in any such event, Tenant hereby waives the
service of any notice of intention to occupy or re-enter the Premises, or to
terminate the Term or to institute legal proceedings, or any other notice
otherwise required by law in order to afford to Landlord the remedies
hereinabove provided; or
(b) without declaring the Term under this Lease to be at an end, re-
let the Premises, or any part thereof, as the agent and for the account of
Tenant, upon such terms and conditions as Landlord may deem advisable, in which
event the rents (and other monies) received on such re-letting shall be applied
first to the reasonable expenses of such re-letting and collection, including
but not limited to, necessary renovation of the Premises, reasonable attorneys'
fees, disbursements related to said attorney's fees, any real estate commissions
actually paid, and thereafter toward payment of Rent and of all moneys, costs,
charges and expenses due or to become due to Landlord hereunder, and if a
sufficient sum shall not be thus realized to pay the total of all such expenses,
Rent, and other such amounts, Tenant shall pay Landlord any deficiency monthly
(notwithstanding that Landlord may have received sums in excess of the total of
such expenses, Rent and other such amounts in previous or subsequent months),
and Landlord may bring action(s) therefor as such monthly deficiencies shall
arise.
Any such re-entry shall be allowed by Tenant without let or hindrance
and Landlord shall not be liable in damages for any such re-entry or guilty of
trespass.
-25-
For the purposes of this Section, (i) the "fair and reasonable rental
value of the Premises" shall be determined on the basis of a tenant paying not
only a return to a landlord for the use and occupation of the Premises, but also
such monies, costs, charges and expenses as are required to be paid by Tenant
under the terms of this Lease, and (ii) the term "then cash value" means the
amount in question discounted to the date on which the Term comes to an end at
the rate of four percent (4%) per annum, convertible quarterly.
Section 18.2. In the event of a default by Tenant beyond any
------------
applicable notice and opportunity to cure period, in connection with either
Section 18.l(a) or 18.l(b) above, Landlord is authorized to re-enter, seize and
take possession of all furniture, equipment, inventory, and movable Trade
Fixtures without being deemed guilty in any manner of trespassing or conversion.
Landlord shall be permitted to sell the seized property at a public or private
sale on thirty (30) days notice to Tenant, as payment for sums owing under this
Lease.
Section 18.3. Any remedies specifically provided for in this Lease
------------
are in addition to and not exclusive of any other remedy available to Landlord.
Section 18.4. In the event of any breach of this Lease by Tenant,
------------
Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) at any time, after ten (10) days'
written notice, except in emergency situations for which no notice shall be
required, cure such breach for the account and at the expense of Tenant. If
Landlord at any time so elects or is compelled by any other person to cure such
breach or is compelled to incur any other expense arising out of such breach by
Tenant (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements in instituting, prosecuting or defending any suits, actions or
proceedings to enforce Landlord's rights under this or any other Section of this
Lease or otherwise) the sum or sums so paid by Landlord, with all interest,
costs and damages, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days
following written demand. Such expenses may be recovered in the same action or
proceeding forming the basis of default.
Section 18.5. Any payment required to be made by Tenant under any
------------
provision of this Lease (other than payments of Rent provided for in Article V)
not made by Tenant when and as due shall thereupon be deemed to be due and
payable by Tenant to Landlord on demand along with an additional late fee of
$100.00.
Section 18.6. Tenant hereby waives its right to plead any
------------
counterclaim or offset in any action or proceeding brought by Landlord against
Tenant for non-payment of rent or default hereunder. This shall not, however,
be construed as a waiver of Tenant's right to assert any claim in a separate
action brought by Tenant.
ARTICLE XIX

SURRENDER OF PREMISES
---------------------
Section 19.1. Tenant shall, on the last day of the Term, quit and
------------
surrender the Premises, broom clean, in good order, condition and repair, normal
wear and tear excepted, together with all alterations, additions, improvements,
equipment and fixtures which may have been made in, on, or to the Premises,
except Movable Trade Fixtures installed at the sole expense of Tenant. If
Landlord shall, during the period of thirty (30) days prior to the end of the
Term,, notify Tenant that Landlord desires to have Tenant remove from the
Premises any or all alterations, additions, improvements, equipment and fixtures
which were installed by Tenant therein after Tenant received notice that
Landlord reserved the right to require the improvements so installed to be
removed at the end of the Term, then Tenant shall do so at Tenant's sole cost
and expense, and Tenant shall repair any damages to the Premises caused by such
removal.
If the Premises be not surrendered at the end of the Term, then Tenant
shall indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from delay by
Tenant in so surrendering the Premises, including without limitation, any claims
founded on such

person occupying the Premises or any portion thereof as a result of any such
assignment or transfer so in violation of the provisions of Article XIII shall

purchaser of the fee or any leasehold, or the mortgagee, beneficiary or conveyee
of any security or interest, or any assignee of any thereof, under
-28-
any mortgage, deed of trust or conveyance for security purposes now or hereafter
made with respect to the fee or any leasehold or other interest in the Premises.

------------
dealings with any realtors, brokers or agents in connection with the negotiation
of this Lease other than Xxxx Xxxx of The Shopping Center Group (the "Broker").

connection with this Lease in accordance with the terms of a separate agreement
between Landlord and Broker. Landlord and Tenant each agree to hold the other
harmless from and against any and all liabilities and claims for commissions and
fees arising out of a breach of the foregoing warranties with respect to
brokerage commissions.
Section 21.9. If for any reason the Term shall not have commenced
------------
within five (5) years from the date hereof, then this Lease shall automatically
terminate and be of no further force and effect, and thereupon neither party
hereto shall have any further rights or obligation hereunder.

-------------
Tenant agrees that it will not, nor will Tenant permit anyone acting by, through

liabilities, judgments, damages, fines, penalties and expenses or loss
including, reasonable attorney's fees, consultant's fees and expert fees,
arising out of Hazardous Materials being brought onto the Premises by Tenant or
anyone acting by, through or under Tenant. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, this indemnification shall survive the expiration of this Lease
and does specifically cover costs incurred in connection with any investigation
of site conditions or any cleanup, remedial, removal or restoration work
required by any federal, state or local governmental agency or political
subdivision because of the presence or suspected presence of Hazardous Materials
in the soil, groundwater or soil vapor on or under the Premises as the result of
the acts of Tenant, its officers, agents or employees.

interference with the regular delivery of mail, notices may be served in person
or by telegram in lieu of certified mail.
Section 21.12. If at any time the term Tenant shall include more than
-------------
one person, the obligations of all such persons hereunder shall be joint and
several.
Section 21.13. Each term and provision of this Lease to be performed
-------------
by Landlord or Tenant shall be construed to be both a covenant and a condition.
Section 21.14. The failure of Landlord to insist in any one or more
-------------
cases upon the performance of any of the provisions, covenants, agreements or
conditions of this Lease or to exercise any option herein contained shall not be
construed as a waiver or
-29-
a relinquishment for the future of any such provision, covenant, agreement,
condition or option. Receipt by Landlord of Rent or of any other payment or the
acceptance by Landlord of performance of anything required by this Lease to be
performed with knowledge of the breach of a covenant shall not be deemed a
waiver of such breach. No waiver of any provision, covenant, agreement or
condition of this Lease shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in
writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver is charged.
Section 21.15. This Lease may not be changed orally, but only by an
-------------
agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any change,
modification or discharge is sought.
Section 21.16. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights of redemption
-------------
granted by or under any present or future laws in the event that Tenant is

possession of the Premises by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the
provisions, covenants, agreements or conditions of this Lease, or otherwise.
Section 21.17. Intentionally deleted.
-------------
Section 21.18. The provisions of this Section shall be applicable if
-------------
there shall occur, during the Term of this Lease, or prior to the commencement
thereof, any (i) strike(s), lockout(s) or labor dispute(s); (ii) the inability
to obtain labor or materials, or reasonable substitutes therefor; (iii) acts of
God, weather conditions, governmental restrictions, regulations or controls,
enemy or hostile governmental action, civil commotion, fire or other casualty,
or other conditions similar to those enumerated in this item (iii) beyond the
reasonable control of the party obligated to perform; or (iv) delays due to the
act or omission of the other party. If Landlord or Tenant shall, as the result
of any of the above-described events, fail punctually to perform any obligation
on its part to be performed under this Lease, then such failure shall be excused
and not be a breach of this Lease by the party in question, but only to the
extent occasioned by such event. If any right or option of either party to take
any action under or with respect to this Lease is conditioned upon the same
being exercised within any prescribed period of time or at or before a named
date, then such prescribed period of time and such named date shall be deemed to
be extended or delayed, as the case may be, for a period equal to the period of
the delay occasioned by any above-described event. Notwithstanding anything
herein contained, however, (a) the provisions of this Section shall not be
applicable to Tenant's obligations to pay Rent or any other sums, monies, costs,
charges or expenses required to be paid by Tenant hereunder, (b) with respect to
Tenant's obligations under the provisions of Section 7.2, only the events
described in item (iii) of the first sentence of this Section shall be deemed to

-------------
each number (singular or plural) shall include all numbers, and each gender

for convenience of reference only and the words contained therein shall in no
way be held or deemed to define, limit, explain, modify, amplify or add to the
interpretation, construction or meaning of any provision of, or the scope or
intent of, this Lease, nor in any way affect this Lease. Time is and shall be
of the essence of each term and provision of this Lease. The term "person" as
used herein means person, firm, association or corporation, as the case may be.
Section 21.20. There are no oral agreements between the parties hereto
-------------
affecting this Lease, and this Lease supersedes and cancels any and all previous
negotiations, arrangements, agreements and understandings, if any, between the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter thereof, and none thereof
shall be used to interpret or construe this Lease.
-30-
Section 21.21. Tenant shall not record this Lease without the written

include provisions relating to amounts of Rent or other charges payable
hereunder, unless requested by Landlord. In lieu of recording a Memorandum of
Lease, Tenant shall record this Lease upon the request of Landlord or Landlord's
mortgagee.

-------------
provides, in effect, that Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or
unreasonably delay any consent or any approval, Tenant, in no event, shall be
entitled to make, nor shall Tenant make, any claim for, and Tenant hereby waives
any claim for money damages; nor shall Tenant claim any money damages by way of
set off, counterclaim or defense, based upon any claim or assertion by Tenant

judgment.

-------------
of a term or provision hereof or the application thereof to any person or
circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Lease, or the application of such term or provision or portion thereof to

unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of
this Lease and each portion thereof shall be valid and be enforced to the

or persons the use of any facility, service, privilege, accommodation and
activity provided thereon.
Section 21.25. Notwithstanding the provisions contained in Section
-------------
18.1 or elsewhere in this Lease, in the event that any action or proceeding is
brought to enforce any term, covenant or condition of this Lease on the part of
Landlord or Tenant, the prevailing party in such litigation shall be entitled to
recover from the non-prevailing party reasonable attorneys' fees actually
incurred in such action or proceeding.

-------------
or mortgagee of Tenant, Landlord hereby agrees to subordinate any statutory lien
