No re-entry or re -letting of the Premises of any nature served under unlawful detainer action or the filing of any unlawful detainer or similar action shall be construed as an election by Lessor to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given by Lessor to Lessee, and notwithstanding any such re -letting without such termination, Lessor may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease. Except in the case of Lessor's negligence or willful misconduct, Lessee hereby waives all claims or demands for damages that may be caused by Lessor in reentering and taking possession of the Premises as herein above provided and all claims or demands which may result from the destruction of or injury to the Premises and all claims or demands for damages or loss of property belonging to Lessee or to any other person or firm that may be in or about the Premises at the time of such reentry. Nothing contained in this Lease shall limit Lessor to the remedies set forth in this Article and upon Lessee's default Lessor shall be entitled to exercise any right or remedy provided by law, or in equity, including, but without limitation, the right to obtain injunctive relief and the right to recover all damages caused by Lessee's default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease. Neither this Lease nor any interest herein nor any estate created hereby shall pass by operation of law under any state or federal insolvency or bankruptcy act to any trustee, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors or any other person whatsoever without the prior written consent of Lessor. In addition, Lessor needs to file eviction to retake possession set if Lessee at any time fails to perform any of its obligations under forth in this Lease, this Lease in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Lessor, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon giving Lessee at least five (5) days prior to written notice of its election to do so (but in the event of any emergency, no prior notice shall be required), to perform such obligations on behalf 10 , v of and for the account of Lessee and to take all such action to perform such obligations. In such event, Lessor's costs and expenses incurred therein shall be paid for by Lessee forthwith upon demand therefore, with interest thereon from the date Lessor performs such work at the maximum legal rate permitted by law. The performance by Lessor of any such obligation shall not constitute a waiver thereof or a release of Lessee there from. Lessee acknowledges that late payments by Lessee to Lessor of rent and other amounts due under this Lease will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and impractical to fix. Such costs include, without limitation, processing and accounting charges and late charges that may be imposed on Lessor by the terms of any encumbrance and notes secured by any encumbrance covering the Premises. Therefore, if any installment of rent or other amount due from Lessee is not received by Lessor when due, Lessee shall pay to Lessor an additional sum of ten percent (10%) of the overdue amount as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of lessee's default with respect to the overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Lessor. Past due monies shall bear interest at 12% per annum. Monies received shall first apply to late charges, then interest, then other charges, then rent as provided herein. ARTICLE XVI DEFAULT BY LESSOR: Lessor shall in no event be charged with default in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder unless and until Lessor shall have failed to perform such obligations within thirty (30) days (or such additional times as is reasonably required to correct any such defaults) after written notice by Lessee has been received by Lessor, Lessee shall not have the right to exercise any remedy provided for herein or at law unless and until Lessee shall have delivered a written notice to any lender holding a trust deed against the Premises or the Shopping center or portion thereof specifying wherein Lessor has failed to correct or remedy such default, which such notice may not be delivered until after the expiration of the period set forth herein for Lessor remedy such default and shall grant to the lender an additional equal period within which to cure such default. In the event Lessee receives any money judgment resulting from any default or other claim arising under this Lease, such judgment shall be satisfied only out of the profits, but not gross rent or other income, actually received by Lessor from the operation of Shopping Center (herein called "Lessor's Profits"). In no event shall Lessee have the right to levy execution against any property of Lessor other than its interest in Lessor's Profits as hereinabove expressly provided, and Lessee hereby waives, to the extent permissible under law, any right to satisfy any money judgment against property of Lessor other than Lessor's Profits. If Lessor's Profits are insufficient for the payment of any such judgment, Lessee will not institute any further action, suit, claim or demand, in law or equity against Lessor for or on account of such deficiency. This Agreement is executed by any partner(s) or principal(s) of Lessor solely as such partner(s) or principle(s) of the same and not in their own individual capacities. No advisor, trustee, director, officer, partner, employee, beneficiary, shareholder, participant or agent of Lessor whatsoever (collectively, the "Parties") shall be personally liable in any manner or to any extent under or in connection with this lease, and Lessee and its successors and assigns, and, without, limitation, all other persons, partnerships, corporations and entities shall look solely to Lessor's interest in Lessor's Profits as hereinabove expressly provided for the payment of any claim or for any performance, and shall not seek any damages against any of the Parties. The limitation of liability provided in this Article XVI is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any limitation of liability applicable to Lessor or such advisors, trustee, directors, officers, partners, employees, beneficiaries, shareholders, participants or agents of Lessor provided by law or by any other contract, lease, agreement or instrument. No default by Lessor under this Lease shall give Lessee the right to terminate this Lease. ARTICLE XVII EMINENT DOMAIN: If there is any taking of, or damage to, all or any part of the Premises or any interest therein because of the exercise of the power of eminent domain, whether by condemnation proceedings or otherwise, or any transfer of any part of the Premises or any interest therein made in avoidance of the exercise of the power of eminent domain (all of the foregoing being hereinafter referred to as a "Taking") prior to or during the term of this Lease, the rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessee with respect to such taking shall be as follows: 11 (a) If there is a Taking of all of the Premises, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such Taking. (b) If twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the floor area of the Premises shall be Taken, or twenty- five percent (25%) of the land area of the Shopping Center shall be Taken (regardless of whether or not any part of the Premises is Taken), then in that event, Lessor shall be entitled to elect either to terminate this Lease or to rebuild the remainder of the Premises or the Shopping Center. Lessor shall give written notice to Lessee of its election no later than ninety (90) days after the date Lessor receives notice that possession or title to the portion of the Premises or Shopping Center subject to such Taking has vested in the condemner. If this Lease is terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Article XVII, such termination shall become effective as of the date physical possession of the particular portion is taken or immediate possession is ordered. The parties shall be released from all further liability hereunder after such date. If this Lease is not terminated as provided in this Article XVII, or if less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the floor area of the Premises shall be Taken, the annual Fixed Minimum Rent set forth in Section 4.02 for the remainder of the Term of this Lease shall be reduced by the proportion which the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises taken bears to the total ground floor area of the Premises immediately before the Taking and Lessee's pro rata share shall be recalculated as of the date physical possession of the particular portion is taken. The entire award or compensation in such proceedings, whether for a total or partial taking or for diminution in the value of the leasehold or for the fee shall belong to and be the property of Lessor, and Lessee hereby assigns to Lessor all Lessee's interest in any award. However, Lessee shall have the right to recover from the condemning authority, but not from Lessor's award such compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Lessee's own right on account of any and all cost or loss which Lessee might incur in removing Lessee's merchandise, furniture and fixtures, and for relocation costs and such other relief as Lessee may be entitled to under then current law. ARTICLE XVIII RULES AND REGULATIONS: Section 18.01 Lessee shall faithfully observe and comply with the rules and regulations that Lessor shall from time to time promulgate and/or modify for operation of the Shopping Center. The rules and regulations shall be binding upon the Lessee upon delivery of a copy of them to Lessee, provided that such rule or regulation does not substantially modify the bargain of this agreement.
