term of this Lease without deductible and without co-insurance. Lessee shall
also obtain and maintain for the term of this Lease, comprehensive public
liability insurance, with a severability of interest endorsement or its
equivalent, covering liability for bodily injury, including death, and property

additional insured on the public liability insurance. Lessee shall pay all
premiums for such insurance and shall deliver to Lessor the original policy or
policies of insurance, certificates of insurance, or other evidence
satisfactory to Lessor evidencing the insurance required thereby, along with
proof, satisfactory to Lessor, of the payment of the premium therefor;

existence of or to examine such insurance policy or to advise Lessee in the
event such insurance coverage shall not comply with the requirements hereof.
All insurance shall provide for at least thirty (30) days advance written
notice to Lessor before any cancellation or material modification thereof.

insurance, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to obtain such
insurance on behalf of and at the expense of Lessee in the event Lessor does
obtain such insurance, Lessee agrees to pay all costs thereof with the next
rental payment.

10. Risk of Loss. Lessee shall bear the entire risk of loss, theft,
destruction, damage or disrepair of the Equipment or any part thereof for any
cause whatsoever. No such loss, damage, theft, destruction or disrepair of the
Equipment shall relieve Lessee of the obligation to pay rent or from any other
obligation under this Lease. In the event of any of the above, Lessee, at
Lessee's own expense and at Lessor's option, shall either (a) repair the
Equipment, returning same to its previous condition, unless unrepairable, or
(b) replace same with like Equipment of equivalent value, in good condition and

immediately pay Lessor all rent due and to become due under this Lease or such
amount as may be allocated by Lessor, in its sole discretion, to specific items

obligation, to pay the same. If Lessor shall so pay any of the aforementioned,
then the Lessee shall remit such amount with the next installment of rent.

Lessee's own expense and risk promptly return the Equipment by delivering it,
packed and ready for shipment to such place or carrier as Lessor may specify in
the same condition as received, reasonable wear and tear excepted. In the event
Lessee does not return the Equipment as provided herein, Lessee shall pay to
Lessor the rent specified herein on a prorated basis for each day Lessee fails
to return the Equipment. The acceptance of said rent by Lessor shall not waive
Lessor's rights to have the Equipment promptly returned to Lessor pursuant to
the provisions hereof, nor shall the acceptance of said rent be deemed to be an
extension of the term of this Lease.
13. Indemnity. Lessee shall, and does hereby, indemnify and save
Lessor, its agents, employees, successors and assigns, harmless from any and
all liability, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, suits,
