receives possession of the Premises. If possession is not delivered within sixty
days after the commencement date, Sublessee may, at its option, by notice in
writing within ten days after the end of such sixty day period, cancel this
Sublease, in which event the Parties shall be discharged from all obligations
hereunder. If such written notice is not received by Sublessor within said ten
day period, Sublessee's right to cancel shall terminate. Except as otherwise
provided, if possession is not tendered to Sublessee when required and Sublessee
does not terminate this Sublease, as aforesaid, any period of rent abatement
that Sublessee would otherwise have enjoyed shall run from the date of delivery
of possession and continue for a period equal to what Sublessee would otherwise
have enjoyed under the terms hereof, but minus any days of delay caused by the
acts or omissions of Sublessee. If possession is not delivered within 120 days

the Parties agree, in writing, to the contrary.

payment of any Rent or other charge in default or for the payment of any other
sum to which Sublessor may become obligated by reason of Sublessee's default, or
to compensate Sublessor for any loss or damage which Sublessor may suffer
thereby. If Sublessor so uses or applies all or any portion of said deposit,

hereunder, said Deposit, or so much thereof as has not therefore been applied by
Sublessor, shall be returned, without payment of interest to Sublessee (or at
Sublessor's option, to the last assignee, if any, of Sublessee's interest
