Definitions.
-12-
16
The phrase Fixed Minimum Rent shall be the Fixed Minimum Rent above

prior demand therefor and without any deduction or setoff whatsoever. In
addition, Tenant covenants and agrees to pay Landlord all applicable sales or
other taxes which may be imposed on the above specified rents or payments
hereinafter provided for to be received by Landlord when each such payment is
made. Should Tenant fail to pay any installment of Rent when due and continuing
for a period of time constituting a default as further defined under the
provisions of this Lease, Section 9.1, Default, Landlord may, at its option,
require the total Fixed Minimum Rent remaining for the term of this Lease to
immediately become due and payable. If Tenant pays any installment of Fixed
Minimum Rent or any other sum by check and such check is returned for
insufficient funds or other reasons not the fault of Landlord, then Tenant
shall pay to Landlord on demand a processing fee of $25.00 per returned check.
Landlord, at its option, may subtract any such processing fee from any Security

Section 2.2 Fixed Minimum Rent Increase
So as to afford Landlord with consistent purchasing power of its

-13-

Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor ("CPI"). The Fixed
Minimum Rent shall be adjusted to reflect increases in the cost of living as
set forth by the CPI Figure or any successor or substituted index appropriately
adjusted. The CPI Figure for the month specified in Item 10 of the Definitions
shall be defined as the BASIC STANDARD. The CPI Figure for each anniversary
date of the Basic Standard shall be defined as the NEW INDEX FIGURE.
Adjustments shall be made annually on the dates as provided in Item 10 of the
Definitions. These adjustments shall be made and the adjusted monthly Fixed
Minimum Rent (NEW RENTAL) for tile ensuing period shall be arrived at by
multiplying the monthly Fixed Minimum Rent for the last full month of the first
year of the initial Lease term, as described in Item 9, by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the respective NEW INDEX FIGURE and the denominator
of which shall be the BASIC STANDARD.
Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the amount of the NEW
RENTAL and same shall be due on the first day of the month beginning that same
adjustment period and each month thereafter until adjusted again. However, in
no event shall the rental due and payable hereunder be less than the annual
Fixed Minimum Rent for each preceding year of the Lease, regardless of the
value of the dollar as reflected by said CPI Figure.
In the event the amount of the CPI Figure increase is not known until
after the first month of the period for which the adjustment is to be made, due
to delays in publications of the CPI Figure, or any other reason, then, upon
notification of the increase by Landlord, the Tenant shall pay the full
-14-
18
amount of the increase which is due for any prior months during the adjustment
period, within Fifteen (15) days following receipt of Landlord's written notice
of the amount due.
In the event of any controversy arising as to the proper adjustment
for rental payments as herein provided, the Tenant shall continue paying the
rental under the last preceding rental adjustment, as herein provided, until
such time as said controversy has been settled, at which time an adjustment
will be made, retroactive to the beginning of the adjustment period in which
the controversy arose.
Section 2.3 Late Payment
Should Tenant fail to pay when due any installment of Fixed Minimum
Rent or any other sum payable to Landlord under the terms of this Lease, then
Landlord shall assess a servicing fee of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) per month from
and after the Fifth (5th) day following the date on which any sum shall be due
and payable, until the required payments are made. Landlord, at its option, may
subtract any such amount that is not paid from any Security Deposit held by
Landlord and, in such event, Tenant shall deposit a like amount with Landlord
in accordance with the terms of Section 10.1 herein. Should Tenant remit a
partial payment for any outstanding Fixed Minimum Rent or Additional Rent due,
Landlord shall apply said partial payment to the outstanding Fixed Minimum Rent
or Additional Rent as Landlord deems necessary, in its sole discretion.
-15-
19
Section 2.4 Additional Rent-Definition
In addition to the foregoing Fixed Minimum Rent and Fixed Minimum Rent
Increase, all payments to be made under this Lease by Tenant to Landlord shall
be deemed to be and shall become Additional Rent hereunder and, together with
Fixed Minimum Rent, shall be included in the term "Rent" whenever such term is
used herein. Unless another time shall be herein expressly provided for the
payment thereof, any Additional Rent shall be due and payable on demand or
together with the next succeeding installment of Fixed Minimum Rent, whichever
shall first occur, together with all applicable State taxes and interest
thereon at the then prevailing legal rate, and Landlord shall have the same
remedies for failure to pay the same as for non-payment of Fixed Minimum Rent.
Landlord, at its election, shall have the right to pay or do any act which
requires the expenditure of any sums of money by reason of the failure or
neglect of Tenant to perform any of the provisions of this Lease, and in the
event Landlord elects to pay such sums or do such acts requiring the
expenditure of monies, all such sums so paid by Landlord, together with
interest thereon, shall be deemed to be Additional Rent and payable as such by
Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

time to time, at its own expense, alter, renovate or improve the interior of
the Premises provided the same be performed in
-22-
26
a good and workmanlike manner, in accordance with accepted building practices
and so as not to weaken or impair the strength or lessen the value of the
Building in which the Premises are located. No changes, alterations or
improvements affecting the exterior of the Premises shall be made by Tenant
without the prior written approval of Landlord. Any work done by Tenant under

tenants or their premises in the Building. Tenant also agrees to pay 100% of
any increase in the Real Estate Taxes or Landlord's Personal Property Taxes
resulting from such improvements.
All alterations, decorations, additions and improvements made by
Tenant, or made by Landlord on Tenant's behalf as provided in this Lease, shall

or renewal thereof, but they shall. not be removed from the Premises without
the prior written consent of Landlord.
Upon obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall

the Premises as provided in Section 6.5, and if Tenant fails to do so and moves
from the Premises, all such alterations, decorations, additions and
improvements shall become the property of Landlord.
Section 6.3 Construction Insurance and Indemnity

claims for loss or
-23-
27
damages or otherwise based upon or in any manner growing out of any alterations

all costs, damages, expenses, court costs and attorneys' fees incurred in or
resulting from claims made by any person or persons, by other tenants of
premises in the Building, their subtenants, agents, employees, customers and
invitees.
Before undertaking any alterations or construction, Tenant shall

maintain at all times fire insurance with extended coverage in the name of
Landlord and Tenant as their interests may appear in an amount adequate to
cover the cost of replacement of all alterations, decorations, additions or
improvements in and to the Premises and all trade fixtures therein, in the
event of fire or extended coverage loss. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord
copies of such fire insurance policies which shall contain a clause requiring
the insurer to give Landlord Ten (10) days notice of cancellation of such
policies.
Section 6.4 Mechanic's Liens and Additional Construction
If by reason of any alteration, repair, labor performed or materials
furnished to the Premises
-24-
28
for or on behalf of Tenant any mechanic's or other lien shall be filed,
claimed, perfected or otherwise established or as provided by law against the
Premises, Tenant shall discharge or remove the lien by bonding or otherwise,
within Fifteen (15) days after the Tenant receives notice of the filing of
same. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease seemingly to the contrary,
Tenant shall never, under any circumstances, have the power to subject the
interest of Landlord in the Premises to any mechanics' or materialmen's liens
or liens of any kind, nor shall any provision contained in this Lease ever be
construed as empowering the Tenant to encumber or cause the Landlord to
encumber the title or interest of Landlord in the Premises.
Tenant hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that no alterations,
additions, repairs or improvements to the Premises of any kind are required or
contemplated to be performed as a prerequisite to the execution of this Lease
and the effectiveness thereof according to its terms or in order to place the
Premises in a condition necessary for use of the Premises for the purposes as
set forth in this Lease, that the Premises are presently complete and usable
for the purposes set forth in this Lease and that this Lease is in no way
conditioned on Tenant making or being able to make alterations, additions,
repairs or improvements to the Premises, unless otherwise specified under the
Special Provisions section of the Definitions, notwithstanding the fact that
alterations, repairs, additions or improvements may be made by Tenant, for
Tenant's convenience or for Tenant's purposes, subject to Landlord's prior
written consent, at Tenant's sole cost and expense.
Landlord and Tenant expressly acknowledge and agree that neither the
Tenant nor any one
-25-
29
claiming by, through or under the Tenant, including without limitation
contractors, sub-contractors, materialmen, mechanics and laborers, shall have
any right to file or place any mechanics' or materialmen's liens of any kind
whatsoever upon the Premises nor upon any building or improvement thereon; on
the contrary, any such liens are specifically prohibited. All parties with whom
the Tenant may deal are hereby put on notice that the Tenant has no power to
subject the Landlord's interest in the Premises to any claim or lien of any
kind or character and any persons dealing with the Tenant must look solely to
the credit of the Tenant for payment and not to the Landlord's interest in the
Premises or otherwise.
Any lien filed against the Premises in violation of this paragraph
shall be null and void and of no force or effect. In addition, Tenant shall
cause any lien filed against the Premises in violation of this paragraph to be
cancelled, released, discharged and extinguished within Fifteen (15) days after
Tenant receives notice of filing of the same and shall indemnify and hold the
Landlord harmless from and against any such lien and any costs, damages,
charges and expenses, including, but not limited to, attorney's fees, incurred
in connection with or with respect to any such lien.
Section 6.3 Trade Fixtures
All trade fixtures and equipment installed by Tenant in the Premises
shall be new or completely reconditioned and shall remain the property of
Tenant.
-26-
30
Provided Tenant is not in default hereunder, Tenant shall have the
right, at the termination of this Lease, to remove any and all trade fixtures,
equipment and other items of personal property not constituting a part of the
freehold which it may have stored or installed in the Premises including, but
not limited to, counters, shelving, showcases, chairs, and movable machinery
purchased or provided by Tenant and which are susceptible of being moved
without damage to the Building and the Premises, provided this right is
exercised before the Lease is terminated or during the Ten (10) day period
immediately following such termination and provided that Tenant, at its own
cost and expense, shall repair any damage to the Premises caused thereby. The
right granted Tenant in this Section shall not include the right to remove any
plumbing or electrical fixtures or equipment, heating or air conditioning
equipment, floor-coverings (including wall-to-wall carpeting) glued or fastened
to the floors or any paneling, tile or other materials fastened or attached to
the walls or ceilings, all of which shall be deemed to constitute a part of the
freehold, and, as a matter of course, shall not include the right to remove any
fixtures or machinery that were furnished or paid for by the Landlord. The
Premises and the immediate areas in front, behind and adjacent to it shall be
left in a broom-clean condition. Should Tenant fail to comply with this
provision, Landlord may deduct the cost of cleanup from Tenant's Security
Deposit. If Tenant shall fail to remove its trade fixtures or other property at
the termination of this Lease or within Ten (10) days thereafter, such fixtures
and other property not removed by Tenant shall be deemed abandoned by Tenant,
and, at the option of Landlord, shall become the property of Landlord.
All of the foregoing is subject to Section 10.2 of this Lease.

or to the Building in which the same are located, including the right to take
the required materials therefor into and upon the Premises without the same
constituting an eviction of Tenant in whole or in part, and the Rent shall not
▇▇▇▇▇ while such repairs, alterations, replacements or improvements are being
made by reason of loss or interruption of Tenant's business due to the
performance of any such work; and b) show the Premises to prospective

be permissible, Landlord may enter the same by a master key or by the use of
force without rendering Landlord liable therefor and without in any manner
affecting Tenant's obligations under the Lease.

ARTICLE VII
INSURANCE AND INDEMNITY
Section 7.1 Tenant's Insurance
Tenant shall maintain, at its own cost and expense, in responsible
companies approved by Landlord, combined single limit public liability
insurance, insuring Landlord and Tenant, as their interests may appear, against
all claims, demands or actions for bodily injury, personal injury or death of
any one person in an amount of not less than $500,000.00; and for bodily
injury, personal injury or death of more than one person in any one accident in
an amount of not less than $500,000.00; and for damage to property in an amount
of not less than $500,000.00. Landlord shall have the right to direct Tenant to
increase such amounts whenever it considers them inadequate. Such liability
insurance shall also cover and include all exterior signs maintained by Tenant.
The policy of insurance may be in the form of a general coverage or floater
policy covering these and other premises, provided that Landlord is
specifically insured therein. Tenant shall carry like coverage against loss or
damage by boiler or compressor or internal explosion of boilers or compressors,
if there is a boiler or compressor in the Premises. Tenant shall maintain
insurance covering all glass forming a part of the Premises including plate
glass in the Premises and fire insurance against loss or damage by fire or
windstorms, with such endorsements for extended coverage, vandalism, malicious
mischief and special extended coverage as Landlord may require, covering 100%
of the replacement costs of any items of value, including but not limited to
signs, stock, inventory, fixtures, improvements, floor coverings and equipment.
All of said insurance shall be in form and in responsible companies
satisfactory to Landlord, and shall provide that it will not be subject to
cancellation, termination or change except after at least Thirty (30) days
prior written notice to Landlord. Any insurance procured by Tenant as herein
required shall contain an express waiver of any right of subrogation by the
insurance company against Landlord. The policies,
-29-
33
together with satisfactory evidence of the payment of the premiums thereon,
shall be deposited with Landlord on the day Tenant begins operations.
Thereafter, Tenant shall provide Landlord with evidence of proof of payment
upon renewal of any such policy, not less than Thirty (30) days prior to
expiration of the term of such coverage. In the event Tenant fails to obtain or
maintain the insurance required hereunder, Landlord may obtain same and any
costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith shall be payable by Tenant
upon demand. Landlord shall carry public liability insurance covering the
exterior of the Premises, including, but not limited to the sidewalks, malls
and parking lot.
Section 7.2 Extra Hazard Insurance Premiums
Tenant agrees that it will not keep, use, sell or offer for sale in or
upon the Premises any article or permit any activity which may be prohibited by
the standard form of fire or public liability insurance policy. Tenant agrees
to pay any increase in premiums for fire and extended coverage or public
insurance which may be carried by Landlord on the Premises or the Building of
which they are a part, resulting from the type of merchandise sold or services
rendered by Tenant or activities in the Premises, whether or not Landlord has
consented to the same. In determining whether increased premiums are the result
of Tenant's use of the Premises, a schedule, issued by the organization making
the insurance rate on the Premises, showing various components of such rate,
shall be conclusive evidence of the several items and charges which make up the
fire and public liability insurance rate on the Premises.
-30-
34
Tenant shall not knowingly use or occupy the Premises or any part
thereof, or suffer or permit the same to be used or occupied for any business
or purpose deemed extra hazardous on account of fire or otherwise. In the event
Tenant's use and/or occupancy causes any increase of premium for the fire,
boiler and/or casualty rates on the Premises or any part thereof above the rate
for the least hazardous type of occupancy legally permitted in the Premises,
Tenant shall pay such additional premium on the fire, boiler and/or casualty
insurance policy that may be carried by Landlord for its protection against
rent loss through fire. Bills for such additional premiums shall be rendered by
Landlord to Tenant at such times as Landlord may elect, and shall be due from
and payable by Tenant when rendered in writing, but such increases in the rate
of insurance shall not be deemed a breach of this covenant by Tenant. Failure
to pay amounts due hereunder shall be a breach of the Lease.
Section 7.3 Indemnity
Tenant during the term hereof shall indemnify and save harmless
Landlord from and against any and all claims and demands whether for injuries
to persons or loss of life, or damage to property, occurring within the
Premises and immediately adjoining the Premises and arising out of the use and
occupancy of tile Premises by Tenant, or occasioned wholly or in part by any
act or omission of Tenant, its subtenants, agents, contractors, employees,
servants, lessees or concessionaires, excepting however such claims and
demands, whether for injuries to persons or loss of life or damage to property,
caused by the negligence of Landlord. If, however, any liability arises in the
Common
-31-
35
Areas because of the negligence of Tenant, Tenant's subtenants, agents,
employees, contractors, invitees, customers or visitors, then in such event
Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless. In case Landlord shall, without fault on
its part, be made a party to any litigation commenced by or against Tenant,
then Tenant shall protect and hold Landlord harmless and shall pay all costs,
expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred or paid by Landlord in
connection with such litigation. Tenant shall also pay all costs, expenses and
reasonable attorneys' fees that may be incurred or paid by Landlord in
enforcing the covenants and agreements of this Lease.
Section 7.4 Definition and Liability of Landlord
The term Landlord as used in this Lease means only the owner or the
mortgagee in possession for the time being of the Building in which the
Premises are located or the owner of a leasehold interest in the Building
and/or the land thereunder so that in the event of sale of the Building or an
assignment of this Lease, or a demise of the Building and/or land, Landlord
shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all obligations of
Landlord hereunder and it shall be deemed without further agreement between the
parties and such purchaser(s), assignee(s) and lessee(s) that the purchaser,
assignee or lessee has assumed and agreed to observe and perform all
obligations of Landlord hereunder.
It is specifically understood and agreed that there shall be no
personal liability on Landlord in respect to any of the covenants, conditions
or provisions of this Lease; in the event of a breach or
-32-
36
default by Landlord of any of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall
look solely to the equity of Landlord in the Building for the satisfaction of
Tenant's remedies.
ARTICLE VIII
DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION AND CONDEMNATION
Section 8.1 Damage or Destruction by Fire or Other Casualty
A. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord in case of fire or
other damage to the Premises or the Building containing the Premises. In the
event the Premises are damaged by fire, explosion, flood, tornado or by the
elements, or through any casualty, or otherwise, after the commencement of the
term of this Lease, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If the
extent of the damage is less than Fifty Percent (50%) of the cost of
replacement of the Premises, the damage shall promptly be repaired by Landlord
at Landlord's expense, provided that Landlord shall not be obligated to so
repair if such fire, explosion or other casualty is caused directly by the
negligence of Tenant, its subtenants, permitted concessionaires, or their
agents, servants or employees, and provided further that Landlord shall not be
obligated to expend for such repair an amount in excess of the insurance
proceeds recovered or recoverable as a result of such damage, and that in no
event shall Landlord be required to replace Tenant's stock in trade, fixtures,
furniture, furnishings, floor coverings and equipment. In the event of any such
damage and (a) Landlord is
-33-
37
not required to repair as hereinabove provided, or (b) the Premises shall be
damaged to the extent of Fifty Percent (50%) or more of the cost of
replacement, or (c) the Building of which the Premises are a part is damaged to
the extent of Twenty-Five Percent (25%) or more of the cost of replacement, or
(d) all buildings (taken in the aggregate) in the Building shall be damaged to
the extent of more than Twenty-Five Percent (25%) of the aggregate cost of
replacement, Landlord may elect either to repair or rebuild the Premises or the
Building or buildings, or to terminate this Lease upon giving notice of such
election to Tenant within Ninety (90) days after the occurrence of the event
causing the damage.
B. If the casualty, repairing, or rebuilding shall render the Premises
untenantable, in whole or in part, and the damage shall not have been due to
the default or neglect of Tenant, a proportionate abatement of the Fixed
Minimum Rent shall be allowed from the date when the damage occurred until the
date Landlord completes the repairing or rebuilding, said proportion to be
computed on the basis of the relation which the gross square foot area of the
space rendered untenantable bears to the floor area of the Premises. If
Landlord is required or elects to repair the Premises as herein provided,
Tenant shall repair or replace its stock in trade, fixtures, furniture,
furnishings, floor coverings and equipment, and if Tenant has closed for
business, Tenant shall promptly reopen for business upon the completion of such
repairs.
C. In the event the Premises or the Building or buildings shall be
damaged in whole or in substantial part within the last Twenty-Four (24) months
of the original term, or within the last
-34-
38
Twenty-Four (24) months of the last renewal term, if renewals are provided for
herein, Landlord shall have the option, exercisable within Ninety (90) days
following such damage, of terminating this Lease, effective as of the date of
Tenant's receipt of notice from Landlord. If any such termination occurs during
the initial term, any options for renewal shall automatically be of no further
force or effect.
D. No damage or destruction of the Premises or the Building or
buildings shall allow Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises nor affect
Tenant's liability for the payment of Rent or any other covenant contained
herein, except as may be specifically provided in this Lease. Notwithstanding
any of the provisions herein to the contrary, Landlord shall have no obligation
to rebuild the Premises or the Building or buildings and may at its own option
cancel this Lease unless the damage or destruction is a result of a casualty
covered by Landlord's insurance policy.
Section 8.2 Condemnation
(a) Total: In the event the entire Premises shall be appropriated or
taken under the power of eminent domain by any public or quasi-public
authority, this Lease shall terminate and expire as of the date of title
vesting in such proceeding, and Landlord and Tenant shall thereupon be released
from any further liability hereunder. (b) Partial: If any part of the Premises
shall be taken as aforesaid, and such partial taking shall render that portion
not so taken unsuitable for the business of Tenant, as determined by Landlord,
then this Lease and the term herein shall cease and terminate
-35-
39
as aforesaid. If such partial taking is not extensive enough to render the
Premises unsuitable for the business of Tenant, then this Lease shall continue
in effect, except that the Fixed Minimum Rent shall be reduced in the same
proportion that the floor area of the Premises taken bears to the original
floor area leased and Landlord shall, upon receipt of the award in
condemnation, make all necessary repairs or alterations to the Building in
which the Premises are located so as to constitute the portion of the Building
not taken a complete architectural unit, but such work shall not exceed the
scope of the work to be done by Landlord in originally constructing said
Building, nor shall Landlord, in any event, be required to spend for such work
an amount in excess of the amount received by Landlord as damages for the part
of the Premises so taken. "Amount received by Landlord" shall mean that part of
the award in condemnation which is free and clear to Landlord of any collection
by mortgagee for the value of the diminished fee. (c) Termination: If more than
Twenty Percent (20%) of the floor area of the Building in which the Premises
are located shall be taken as aforesaid, Landlord may, by written notice to
Tenant, terminate this Lease, such termination to be effective as aforesaid.
(d) Rent on Termination: If this Lease is terminated as provided in this
paragraph, the Rent shall be paid up to the date that possession is so taken by
public authority and Landlord shall make an equitable refund of any Rent paid
by Tenant in advance. (e) Award: Tenant shall not be entitled to and expressly
waives all claim to any condemnation award for any taking, whether whole or
partial, and whether for diminution in value of the leasehold or to the fee
although Tenant shall have the right, to the extent that the same shall not
reduce Landlord's award, to claim from the condemnor, but not from Landlord,
such compensation as may be recoverable by Tenant in its own right for damage
to Tenant's business, fixtures and improvements installed by Tenant at its
expense.

of the Landlord, this Lease and the term thereunder shall terminate and come to
an end on the date specified in such notice of cancellation, and Tenant shall
quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord as if the term herein ended by the
expiration of the time fixed herein, but Tenant shall remain liable as

provisions hereof, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies which
it may have, the right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity,

Lease, the prevailing party in such litigation shall be entitled to recovery of
all costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees.

the terms, conditions and covenants herein shall not be deemed to be a waiver
of any rights or remedies that Landlord may have and shall not be deemed a
waiver of any subsequent breach or default in the terms, conditions and
covenants herein contained except as may be expressly waived in writing.

monies that may be due or become due from Tenant including all expenses, court
costs and attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred by Landlord in recovering
possession of the Premises and all costs and charges for the care of the

obligations under this Lease by reason of strike, labor disputes, or any cause
whatsoever beyond Landlord's reasonable control, the period of such delay or

46
the performance of any obligation by Landlord.
ARTICLE X

the Definitions to be retained by Landlord without liability for interest, as
security for the payment of all Rent and other sums of money which shall or may
be payable for the full stated term of this Lease, and any extension or renewal
thereof, and for the faithful performance of all the terms of this Lease to be
observed and performed by Tenant.
B. The Security Deposit shall not be mortgaged, assigned, transferred
or encumbered by Tenant without the prior written consent of Landlord and any
such act on the part of Tenant shall be without force or effect and shall not
be binding upon Landlord. If any of the Rent herein reserved or any other sum
payable by Tenant to Landlord shall be overdue and unpaid or should Landlord
make payments on behalf of Tenant, or if Tenant shall fail to perform any of
the terms of this Lease, then Landlord may, at its option and without prejudice
to any other remedy which Landlord may have on account thereof, appropriate and

-43-
47
necessary to compensate Landlord toward the payment of Rent or Additional Rent
or loss or damage sustained by Landlord due to breach on the part of Tenant;
and Tenant shall promptly upon demand restore said security to the original sum
deposited. If Tenant should be overdue in the payment of monthly Rent or other
sums payable to Landlord on at least two or more occasions during a year,
Landlord, at its option, may require Tenant to increase the amount of Security
Deposit now held by Landlord by an amount sufficient to cover at least two
months Rent or greater amount to be determined at the sole discretion of
Landlord. In this event, upon receipt of the additional security sum, Landlord
and Tenant shall evidence such receipt by a letter signed and acknowledged by
both Landlord and Tenant to be incorporated as part of this Lease amending
Section A. hereof, stating the "New Total Amount" so held without liability for
any interest. Within Sixty (60) days after the expiration of the tenancy hereby
created, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, provided Tenant shall not be in
default hereunder and shall have complied with all the terms, covenants and
conditions of this Lease, including the yielding up of the immediate possession
to Landlord, Landlord shall, upon being furnished with affidavits and other
satisfactory evidence by Tenant that Tenant has paid all bills incurred by it
in connection with its performance of the terms, covenants and conditions of
this Lease, return to Tenant said sum on deposit or such portion thereof then
remaining on deposit with Landlord as set forth herein. In the event Tenant has
not complied with all the obligations provided for hereunder, Landlord may
appropriate a part or a of the Security Deposit as liquidated damages to
satisfy Tenant's obligations.

hereunder, Tenant hereby pledges and assigns to Landlord all the furniture,
fixtures', goods, inventory, stock and chattels, and all other personal
property of Tenant which are now or may hereafter be brought or put in the
Premises, and further grants to Landlord a security interest therein under the
Uniform Commercial Code. Upon default of the payment of Rent, assessments,
charges, penalties and damages herein covenanted to be paid by Tenant, and for
