"Commencement Date" shall be the date specified in Section 1.05
for the beginning of the Lease Term, unless advanced or delayed
under any provision of this Lease.
2.02. Delay in Commencement. Landlord shall not be liable to
Tenant if Landlord does not deliver possession of the Property to
Tenant on the first date specified in Section 1.05 above.
Landlord's non-delivery of the Property to Tenant on that date
shall not affect this Lease or the obligations of the Tenant
under this Lease. However, the Commencement Date shall be delayed
until possession of the Property is delivered to Tenant. The
Lease Term shall be extended for a period equal to the delay in
delivery of possession of the Property to Tenant, plus the number
of days necessary to end the Lease Term on the last day of a
month. If Landlord does not deliver possession of the Property to
Tenant within sixty (60) days after the first date specified in
Section 1.05 above, Tenant may elect to
cancel this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord within ten
(10) days after the 60-day period ends. If Tenant gives such
notice, the Lease shall be cancelled effective as of the date of
its execution, and no party hereto shall have any obligations,
one to the other. If Tenant does not give such notice, Tenant's
right to cancel the Lease shall expire and the Lease Term shall
commence upon the delivery of the Property to Tenant. If delivery
of possession of the Property to Tenant is delayed, Landlord and
Tenant shall, upon such delivery, execute an amendment to this
Lease setting forth the Commencement Date and expiration date of
the Lease.
2.03. Early Occupancy. If Tenant occupies the Property prior to
the Commencement Date, Tenant's occupancy of the Property shall
be subject to all of the provisions of this Lease. Early
occupancy of the Property shall not advance the expiration date
of this Lease. Tenant shall pay Base Rent and all other charges
specified in this Lease for the occupancy period.
2.04. Holding Over. Tenant shall vacate the Property upon the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for and indemnify Landlord against all damages
incurred by Landlord from any delay by Tenant in vacating the
Property. If Tenant does not vacate the Property upon the
expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, Tenant's
occupancy of the Property shall be a "month-to-month" tenancy,
subject to all of the terms of this Lease applicable to a month-
to-month tenancy, except that the Base Rent then in effect shall
be increased by fifty percent (50%).
ARTICLE THREE - RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSIT
3.01. Manner of Payment. All sums to become due hereunder by
Tenant shall be made to the party named in Section 1.13 above, at
the address stated herein for such party, unless such address is
changed as provided herein. [INFORMATION DELETED]. All sums

the rent for the first month of the Lease Term. On or before the
first day of the second month of the Lease Term and of each month

days.

other charges due from Tenant or to cure any other defaults of
Tenant. If Landlord uses any part of the Security Deposit, Tenant
shall restore the Security Deposit to its full amount within ten
(10) days after Landlord's written request. Tenant's failure to
do so shall be a material default under this Lease. No interest
shall be paid on the Security Deposit. Landlord shall not be
required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its other
accounts and no trust relationship is created with respect to the
Security Deposit. Upon any termination of this Lease not
resulting from Tenant's default, and after Tenant has vacated the
Property in the manner required by this Lease, Landlord shall
refund the unused portion of the Security Deposit to Tenant.
ARTICLE FOUR: TAXES
4.01. Payment by Landlord. Landlord shall pay the real estate
taxes on the Property during the Lease Term.
4.02. Payment by Tenant. Tenant shall pay the party named in
Section 1.13 above, as additional rental, the excess, if any, of
the real estate taxes for any year during the Lease Term over the
real estate taxes for the base year stated in Section 1.12,
Tenant shall make such payment within fifteen (12) days after
receipt of a statement showing the amount and computation of such
increase. Tenant shall be responsible for the pro-rata portion of
such additional rental for any fractional part of a year
preceding the end of the Lease Term, which prorated sum shall be
due and payable upon the termination of this Lease. If the
termination of this Lease occurs before the tax rate is fixed for
the particular year, the proration shall be upon the basis of the
tax rate for the preceding year applied to the latest assessed
valuation, and notwithstanding the termination of this Lease, any
difference in the actual real estate taxes for such year shall be
adjusted between the parties upon receipt of written evidence of
the payment thereof.
4.03. Improvements by Tenant. In the event the real estate taxes
levied against the Property for the real estate tax year in which
the Lease Term commences are increased as a result of any
alterations, additions or improvements made by Tenant or by
Landlord at the request of Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
upon demand the amount of such increase. For the purposes of the
calculations under Section 4.02, the amount of the real estate
taxes during the real estate tax year in which the Lease Term
commences shall not include any taxes resulting from any such
alterations, additions or improvements made in or to the
Property. Landlord shall obtain from the tax assessor assessors a
written statement of the total amount of such increase.
-2-
4.04. Joint Assessment. If the real estate taxes are assessed
against the Property jointly with other property not constituting
a part of the Property, the real estate taxes for such years
shall be equal to the amount bearing the same proportion to the
aggregate assessment that the total square feet of building area
in the Property bears to the total square feet of building area
included in the joint assessment.
4.05. Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay all taxes
charged against trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment or any
other personal property belonging to Tenant, Tenant shall try to
have its personal property taxed separately from the Property,
but if any of Tenant's personal property is taxed with the
Property, Tenant shall pay the taxes for the personal property
within fifteen (15) days after Tenant receives a written
statement for such personal property taxes.
ARTICLE FIVE: INSURANCE AND INDEMNITY
5.01. Casualty Insurance. During the Lease Term, Landlord shall
maintain policies of insurance covering loss of or damage to the
Property in such amount or percentage of replacement value as
Landlord or its insurance advisor deems reasonable in relation to
the age, location, type of construction and physical condition of
the Property and the availability of such insurance at reasonable
rates. Such policies shall provide protection against all perils
included within the classification of fire and extended coverage
and any other perils which Landlord deems necessary. Landlord may
obtain insurance coverage for Tenant's fixtures, equipment or
building improvements installed by Tenant in or on the Property.
Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, maintain such primary or
additional insurance on its fixtures, equipment and building
improvements as Tenant deems necessary to protect its interest.
Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which
invalidates any such insurance policies. Any casualty insurance
which may be carried by Landlord or Tenant shall be for the sole
benefit of the party carrying such insurance and under its sole
control.
5.02. Increase In Premiums. Tenant shall not permit any
operation or activity to be conducted or storage or use of any
volatile or any other materials on the Property that would cause
suspension or cancellation of any fire and extended coverage
insurance policy carried by Landlord, or increase the premiums
therefor, without the prior written consent of Landlord. If
Tenant's use and occupancy of the Property causes an increase in
the premiums for any fire and extended coverage insurance policy
carried by Landlord on the day before Tenant shall have first
gone into possession of the Property under this Lease, Tenant
shall pay, as additional rental, the amount of such increase to
Landlord upon demand and possession of written evidence of the
increase by Landlord.
5.03. Liability Insurance. During the Lease Term, Tenant shall
maintain a policy of comprehensive public liability insurance, at
Tenant's expense, insuring Landlord against liability arising out
of the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Property.
The initial amount of such insurance shall be at least
$1,000,000, and shall be subject to periodic increase based upon
inflation, increased liability awards, recommendation of
professional insurance advisors, and other relevant factors.
However, the amount of such insurance shall not limit Tenant's
liability nor relieve Tenant of any obligation hereunder. The
policy shall contain cross-liability endorsements, if applicable,
and shall insure Tenant's performance of the indemnity provisions
of Section 5.04. Such policy shall contain a provision which
prohibits cancellation or modification of the policy except upon
thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant may
discharge its obligations under this Section by naming Landlord
as an additional insured under a policy of comprehensive
[unreadable] insurance [unreadable] and containing the coverage
and provisions described in this Section. Tenant shall deliver a
copy of such policy or certificate (or a renewal thereof) to
Landlord prior to the Commencement Date and prior to the
expiration of any such policy during the Lease Term. If Tenant
fails to maintain such policy, Landlord may elect to maintain
such insurance at Tenant's expense. Tenant shall, at Tenant's
expense, maintain such other liability insurance as Tenant may
deem necessary to protect Tenant.
5.04. Indemnity. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or to
Tenant's employees, agents or visitors, or to any other person
whomsoever, for any injury to persons or damage to property on or
about the Property or any adjacent area owned by Landlord caused
by the negligence or misconduct of Tenant, its employees,
subtenants, licensees or concessionaires or any other person
entering the Property under express or implied invitation of
Tenant, or arising out of the use of the property by Tenant and
the conduct of its business therein, or arising out of any breach
or default by Tenant in the performance of its obligations
hereunder, and Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify Landlord and
hold it harmless from any loss, expense or claims arising out of
such damage or injury. Tenant shall not be liable for any injury
or damage caused by the negligence or misconduct of Landlord, or
its employees or agents, and Landlord agrees to indemnify Tenant
and hold it harmless from any loss, expense or damage arising out
of such damage or injury.
5.05. Waiver of Subrogation. Each party hereto waives any and
every claim which arises or may arise in its favor against the
other party hereto during the term of this Lease or any renewal
or extension thereof for any and all loss of, or damage to, any
of its property located within or upon, or constituting a part
of, the Property, which loss or damage is covered by valid and
collectible fire and extended coverage insurance policies, to the
extent that such loss or damage is recoverable under such
insurance policies. Such mutual waivers shall be in addition to,
and not in limitation or derogation of, any other waiver or
release contained in this Lease with respect to any loss of, or
damage to, property of the parties hereto. Inasmuch as such
mutual waivers will preclude the assignment of any aforesaid
claim by way of subrogation or otherwise to an insurance company
(or any other person), each party hereby agrees immediately to
give to each insurance company which has issued to it policies of
fire and extended coverage insurance, written notice of the terms
of such mutual waivers, and to cause such insurance policies to
be properly endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the invalidation
of such insurance coverages by reason of such waivers.

6.03. Certificate of Occupancy. Tenant may, prior to the
commencement of the term of this Lease, apply for a Certificate
of Occupancy to be issued by the municipality in which the
Property is located, but this Lease shall not be contingent upon

Landlord to install any additional electrical wiring, plumbing or
plumbing fixtures which are not presently existing on the

Landlord in writing.
6.04. Signs. Without the priors written consent of Landlord,
Tenant shall not place or affix any signs or other objects upon

gas or rain; (b) the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other
defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air
conditioning or lighting fixtures or any other cause; (c)
conditions arising on or about the Property or upon other
portions of any building of which the Property is a part, or from
other sources or places; or (d) any act or omission of any other
tenant of any building of which the Property is a part. Landlord
shall not be liable for any such damage or injury even though the
cause of or the means of repairing such damage or injury are not
accessible to Tenant. The provisions of this Section 6.08 shall
not, however, exempt Landlord from liability for Landlord's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

Landlord to make such repairs. Landlord's liability hereunder

seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation,
dissolution or composition of it or its debts under any law

default listed in Section 11.01., Landlord shall have the option
to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any
notice or demand whatsoever:
(a) Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall
immediately surrender the Property to Landlord. If Tenant fails
to so surrender such premises, Landlord may, without prejudice to
any other remedy which it may have for possession of the Property
or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the
Property and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may
be occupying such premises or any part thereof, by force if
necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for
damages therefor. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the
amount of all loss and damage which Landlord may suffer by reason
of such termination, whether through inability to relet the
Property on satisfactory terms or otherwise:
(b) Enter upon and take possession of the Property, by force
if necessary, without terminating this Lease and without being
liable for prosecution or for any claim for damages therefor, and
expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying
such premises or any part thereof. Landlord may relet the
Property and receive the rent therefor. Tenant agrees to pay to
Landlord monthly or on demand from time to time any deficiency
that may arise by reason of any such reletting. In determining
the amount of such deficiency, the brokerage commission,
attorneys' fees, remodeling expenses and other costs of reletting
shall be subtracted from the amount of rent received under such
reletting;
(c) Enter upon the Property, by force, if necessary, without
terminating this Lease and without being liable for prosecution
or for any claim for damages therefor, and do whatever Tenant is
obligated to do under the terms of this Lease. Tenant agrees to
pay Landlord on demand for expenses which Landlord may incur in
thus effecting compliance with Tenant's obligations under this
Lease, together with interest thereon at the rate of twelve
percent (12%) per annum from the date expended until paid.
Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to Tenant
from such action, whether caused by negligence of Landlord or
otherwise.
Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude
pursuit of any of the other remedies herein provided or any other
remedies provided by law, nor shall pursuit of any remedy herein
provided constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due to
Landlord hereunder or of any damages accruing to Landlord by
reason of the violation of any of the terms, conditions and
covenants herein contained.
11.03 Notice of Default. Tenant shall give written notice of
any failure by Landlord to perform any of its obligations under
this Lease to Landlord and to any ground lessor, mortgagee or
beneficiary under any deed of trust encumbering the Property
whose name and address have been furnished to Tenant in writing.
Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease unless Landlord
(or such ground lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary) fails to cure
such non-performance within thirty (30) days after receipt of
Tenant's notice. However, if such non-performance reasonably
requires more than thirty (30) days to cure, Landlord shall not
be in default if such cure is commenced within such thirty (30)
day period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion.
11.04 Limitation of Landlord's Liability. As used in this
Lease, the term "Landlord" means only the current owner or owners
of the fee title to the Property or the leasehold estate under a
ground lease of the Property at the time in question. Each
Landlord is obligated to perform the obligations of Landlord
under this Lease only during the time such Landlord owns such
interest or title. Any landlord who transfers its title or
interest is relieved of all liability with respect to the
obligations of Landlord under this Lease to be performed on or
after the date of transfer. However, each Landlord shall deliver
to its transferee all funds previously paid by Tenant if such
funds have not yet been applied under the terms of this Lease.
ARTICLE TWELVE: LANDLORD'S LIEN
In addition to the statutory Landlord's lien, Tenant hereby
grants to Landlord a security interest to secure payment of all
rent and other sums of money becoming due hereunder from Tenant,
upon all goods, wares, equipment, fixtures, furniture and other
personal property of Tenant situated in or upon the Property,
together with the proceeds from the sale or lease thereof. Such
property shall not be removed without the consent of Landlord
until all
-6-
arrearages in rent and other sums of money then due to Landlord
hereunder shall first have been paid and discharged. Upon the
occurrence of an event of default, Landlord may, in addition to
any other remedies provided herein or by law, enter upon the
Property and take possession of any and all goods, wares,
equipment, fixtures, furniture and other personal property of
Tenant situated on the Property without liability for trespass or
conversion, and sell the same at public or private sale, with or
without having such property at the sale, after giving Tenant
reasonable notice of the time and place of any such sale. Unless
otherwise required by law, notice to Tenant of such sale shall be
deemed sufficient if given in the manner prescribed in this Lease
at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale. Any public
sale made under this Article shall be deemed to have been
conducted in a commercially reasonable manner if held on the
Property or where the property is located, after the time, place
and method of sale and a general description of the types of
property to be sold have been advertised in a daily newspaper
published in Dallas County, Texas, for five consecutive days
before the date of the sale. Landlord or its assigns may
purchase at a public sale and, unless prohibited by law, at a
private sale. The proceeds from any disposition dealt with in
this Article, less any and all expenses connected with the taking
of possession, holding and selling of the property (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses), shall be applied
as a credit against the indebtedness secured by the security
interest granted herein. Any surplus shall be paid to Tenant or
as otherwise required by law; Tenant shall pay any deficiencies
forthwith. Upon request by Landlord, Tenant agrees to execute
and deliver to Landlord a financing statement in form sufficient
to perfect the security interest of Landlord in the
aforementioned property and proceeds thereof under the provisions
of the Uniform Commercial Code in force in the State of Texas.
The statutory lien for rent is expressly reserved; the security
interest herein granted is in addition and supplementary thereto.

beneficiary or mortgagee elects to have this Lease prior to the
lien of its ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage and gives

this Lease is dated prior or subsequent to the date of said
ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage or the date of recording
thereof.

terminated except as otherwise represented by Landlord; (iii)
