or more of the following remedies:
(a) Lessor may terminate this Lease after at least fifteen (15) days'
written notice, in which event Lessee shall immediately surrender the
Rental Space to Lessor. Lessor may, without prejudice to any other remedy
that it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter on and take
possession of the Rental Space and remove all persons and property without
being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and may relet the Rental
Space, or any part of the Rental Space, for all or any part of the
remainder of the Lease term to a party satisfactory to Lessor at such
monthly rental as Lessor, with reasonable diligence, is able to secure.
Lessee agrees to pay Lessor on demand the amount of all loss and damage
that lessor suffers by reason of such termination, whether through
inability to relet the Rental Space on satisfactory terms or otherwise.
(b) Lessor may enter on and take possession of the Rental Space, after
at least fifteen (15) days' written notice, and relet the Rental Space for
the benefit of Lessee on such terms as Lessor deems advisable, and receive

deficiency that may arise by reason of such reletting.

whatever Lessee is obligated to do under the terms of this Lese to correct
the default. Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor on demand for any expenses
that Lessor may incur in effecting compliance with Lessee's obligations
under this Lease in this manner, and Lessee further agrees that Lessor
shall not be liable for any damages resulting to Lessee from such action.
No re-entry or taking possession of the Rental Space by Lessor shall be
construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease, unless
written notice of such intention be given to Lessee. Notwithstanding any
such reletting or reentry or taking possession, Lessor may at any time
thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for a previous default. The loss
or damage that Lessor may suffer by reason of termination of this Lease,
or the deficiency from any reletting as provided for above, shall include
the expense of repossession.

covenant, or condition required to be performed by it under this agreement,
Lessee may elect to do either one of the following:
(a) After not less than fifteen (15) days' notice to Lessor, Lessee
may remedy such default by any necessary action and, in connection with
such remedy, may pay expenses and employ
-16-
counsel. All sums expended of obligations incurred by Lessee in
connection with remedying Lessor's default shall be paid by Lessor to
Lessee on demand and, on failure of such reimbursement, Lessee may, in
addition to any other right or remedy that Lessee may have, deduct these
costs and expenses from rent subsequently becoming due under this Lease.
(b) Lessee may terminate this Lease by giving at least fifteen (15)
days' notice to Lessor of such intention. In the event Lessee elects this
option, the Lease will be terminated on the date designated in Lessee's
notice, unless Lessor has cured the default prior to expiration of the
fifteen (15) day period.
15.4 Cumulative Remedies. Pursuit of any of the remedies provided in this
Lease by either Lessor or Lessee shall not preclude pursuit of any of the other
remedies provided in this Lease or by law. Pursuit of any remedy provided in
this Lease or by law by either party shall not constitute a forfeiture or waiver
of any damages accruing to either party by reason of the violation of any of the
terms, provisions, and covenants contained in this Lease. Nor shall pursuit of
any remedies provided in this Lease by Lessor constitute a waiver or forfeiture
of any rent due to Lessor under this Lease.
15.5 Waiver of Default. No waiver by either party of any default or
violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions, or
-17-
covenants contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed to constitute a
waiver of any other violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions, and
covenants of the Lease. Forbearance by either party to enforce one or more of
the remedies provided in this Lease or by law on an event of default shall not
be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default. Lessor's
acceptance of rent following an event of default under this Lease shall not be
construed as Lessor's waiver of the default.

the Lease term shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Rental Space,
and no agreement to accept a surrender the Rental Space shall be valid unless in
writing and subscribed by Lessor.

tenant on that sign. Lessee shall be permitted to install suitable signs in the
